Beal to Speak in Woonsocket Despite Police Interference) WOONSOCKET, R. L, Dec. 16.— Police here closed the hall in which Fred Beal, one of the Gastonia de- fendants, who is on an organization tour for the National Textile Work- ers’ Union, was scheduled to speak. They would not permit the meet- ing to be held. However, another meeting has been arranged for Thursday when a fight will be put up to hold the meeting against police interference. There is a Manville mill in this town, and the police were acting in behalf of the bosses who fear ef- fective organization work of the National Textile Workers’ Union.

Mooney Case Comes \Before Pardon Board SAN FRANCISCO, Dee, 16.—The Mooney and Billings frame-up comes before the California State Pardon Board today. This same board has repeatedly upheld the now admitted frame-up against Mooney and Bill- ings. Governor Young refused to free the two class-war prisoners who have been in jail since 1916 on per- jured testimony—on framed evi- dence which every living juror in the case admitted to be manufac- tured testimony. Governor Young (Continued.) The unbroken week will, without a doubt, make a big change in work- jing class life and after the tradi- tions guiding the manner in which |the workers live and have their being. In ad of all the workers stopping for their rest-day on the one and the same day, the rest-day | will be the same for only one-fifth of the workers in production, Fur. thermore, this change will deal a! serious blow at the prejudices bound up with the old mode of working class life and at all religious super- stitions. There is no disputing the |fact that since all plants will keep on working on all Church holidays as well as on Sundays, religion will lose many of its adherents and the |process of freeing the working masses from the influence of reli- gious beliefs will be hastened. Now, from the viewpoint of the working class this will really represent a big step forward and cannot be ap- praised save in the positive sens jAs things are at the present time, }on Church holidays and on the eve |of religious festivals, drunkenness | in working jis a common feature |class life, and, as a result, we have jmany of its attendant evils in the | shape of rowdyism, quarrelling and the like.

Now, it is the fact that it is precisely on his day of rest that the worker stands most in need of having his cultural requirements satisfied; and if he frequently slides into drunken- ness, it is because he has no pos- sibility of rationally spending his leisure hours to better advantage. On the continuous week the num- | ber of workers enjoying their day | of rest will be the same through- | out the whole week, This means | that the cultural requirements of | | the workers can be catered for plan- | off it |of the week.

Fortunately the defense attorneys were able to challenge and dismiss those jurors who displayed an open hatred against unionism.” “The case is an absolute victory for the I, L. D.,” she said. “As the I. L. D. was able to snatch the Gastonia strikers from the chair— so it was able to wholly free Sal- vatore Accorsi. All the workers should be enrolled in an organiza- tion capable of doing such good on behalf of class-war victims.” GENERAL MOTORS UNEMPLOY- MENT UP.

Undoubtedly the petition is in- spired by General Russell, his ma- rine cohorts, and President Louis | Borno, who is a tool of U. S. im- perialism. Declaring that the masses are in a revolutionaryy mood and have not been defeated in spite of “all-quiet- on-the-front” despatches, the sign- ers of the petition for marine su- pervision of the election in Haiti say that Haiti is in a “state of in- cipient revolt.” The masses remember that the last, marine-supervised election put Louis Borno in power against the wishes of the Haitian masses who vigorously fought against the ma- rines and Borno. In the Borno election the marines refused to per- mit the peasants to vote against Borno or American rule in Haiti. ee WASHINGTON, Dee. 16.—Marine supervision of election in Haiti, as exposed by Major General Smedley Butler, means that “Wall Stret’s |candidate always wins.” Butler during the course of a |speech in Pittsburgh Iast week told the assembled manufacturers that whenever marines control an elec- tion, as they did in Nicaragua and Haiti heretofore, there is no doubt jabout which way the election will | go. | Butler is being severely criticized |} by the state department as well as the department of the navy for officially letting the cat out of the bag. While making preparations to run | the Haiti elections in April, 1930, Butler careless]y revealed that Mon- |cada was elected in Nicaragua by marine bayonets and machine guns. | Henry Stimson, now secretary of jstate, went to Nicaragua and prom- ised Moncada that the marines | would see he was elected. Butler pointed out that the ma- rines kept Stimson’s promise. The same drama, in more brutal form, is promised for Haiti by marine su- |pervision of the coming election. | Build Up the United Front of the Working Class From the Bot: | tom Up—at the Enterprises! \Labor and Fraternal | Organizations Gastonia Branch LL.D.

CONFERENCE CALL TO TOILERS Worker Organizations to Send Delegates (Continued from Page One) with the aim of smashing the class unions. The struggle between the workers and the bosses is becoming sharper from day to day. In every part of the U. S. A., under the lead- ership of the militant labor move- ment and the new industrial unions, the workers in ever larger numbers | are beginning to revolt against the speed-up system, the low wag long hours and miserable conditions. “In these struggles the workers have to contend with not only the! brutal force of the bosses and their capitalist government, but also with the treacherous bureaucracy of the American Federation of Labor, which is working hand in hand with the bosses in ordey to break the mili tant spirit of the workers and de stroy their class unions. “The most intense and_ bitter phase of these struggles of the workers under the leadership of the militant unions against the com- bined front of the bosses, the state authorities and the reactionary bu- reaucrats, has been manifested in the needle trades. In this industry the workers have been the target of the most vicious, and concentrated attack of all enemies of the work- ing class for the past few years. Needle Workers Fight. “Despite these attacks the needle have stood their ground and under the leadership of the Needle Trades Workers Indus- trial Union, which was organized }one year ago, have carried through successful struggles, gaining consid- erable improvements in the condi- tions of the workers. The Industrial Union today stands out as a real menace to the rationalization schemes of the bosses and all their allies, and it is for this reason that the enemies are mobilizing all their forces in an effort to break the union and bring about the complete industry. “Those latest attacks are being carried on with the aid of Gover- nor’s Commissions under the fake slogan of “stabilizing” the industry. In July, 1929, the Schlesinger com- es, carried through a fake strike in the cloak trade, which resulted in even more miserable and degrading conditions for the workers. Now the company union is planning to | ery against the dressmakers. “While the company union is workers, the Industrial Union has drive amongst the unorganized workers, which it aims to develop on a mass scale to reach out to every open shop in the industry. The class-conscious and militant needle trades workers are giving their enthusiastic support to the In- dustrial Union and are more deter- mined than ever to strengthen and fortify their union and bring the thousands of unorganized workers into its ranks. All Should Aid. “This struggle of the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union is not a struggle of the needle work- ers alone, but is a struggle of grave concern to the entire labor move- ment. The company unionization of |the needle trades, where the work- | ers have been organized for many | | years, would be a great blow to the | {entire labor movement. The defeat | of the -conspiracies against the {needle workers would, on the other | yy, hand, deal a severe blow to the treacherous bureaucrats and the bosses in all other industries. The needle trades workers must have the fullest support and co-operation from all the militant workers in our present struggle. “We are therefore arranging a sympathetic organizations for Sat- urday, December 28, 2 p. m., at Irv- ing Plaza, 15th St. and Irving PL, where we will propose measures to enlist the support of the New York labor movement in our struggle, “This conference is of the utmost importance, and it is the duty of every real worker’s organization to immediately place on the order of business the question of electing at least three delegates to the confer- ence!” Communist Activities Party Membership In N.
