LENIN MEETS FIGHT THREATS OFWARONUSSR. Mobilize Workers For Defense (Coutinued from Page One) workers and the workers of the world, The resolution reads as fol- lows: Whereas, The danger of world war is increasing as can be seen in the increase of “small” wars (against the Haitian, Chinese, Ara- bian, South African and other peo- ples); in the insolent note that Stim- son sent to the Soviet Union, in the Hoover-MacDonald conferences which resulted in increased war bud- gets; in the five-power naval con- | ference in January; and Whereas: The attacks on the workers within the United States have tremendously increased, as is shown by the Gastonia trial, and the increasing arrests and severe sentences meted out to the best fighters for the working class in California, Chicago, Ohio Massa- chusetts, New York and throughout the country, and Whereas: William Green, under the false pretense that he is speak- ing for the American working class, pledged that the workers would not strike against wage cuts or worsen- ing conditions, nor would they fight to improve their position, thereby helping the capitalists to retain their profits in this period of growing crisis at the expense of the work- ers, therefore Be it Resolved That We, the mem- bers of .. . pledge to ist war and in defense of the Soviet Union, the Socialist Fatherland of the world’s workers; against wage ents, speed-up, lengthening hours and for hetter conditions; to defeat William Green's alliance with Wall Street by spreading strike struggles and fighting more militantly to im- prove the conditions of the working sass; and for complete independence of all colonial countries and Be It Further Resolved That we and our fellow workers join in the demonstration to be held in Madison Square Garden, on Saturday, Janu- ary 18, 1930, at-7 p. m., to express our support of: this program on the occasion of the anniversary of the death of the great leader of the world’s workers, V.

Workers International Relief, 949 Now comes the 20-per-cent we Ailes sia ho i | | in Big | Needle, Shoe; Food, Silk, Dye and Other Toilers Show Fighting Spirit By I. AMTER. New York, the city in which the gangster rules for the reactionaries, of the Walker regime act like sav- ages against the workers—New York, in which the workers have fought brilliant battles in reeent times—the New York workers face new battles. Battle in Shoe Shops. | In the shoe industry the workers are today in struggle, locked out in 122 shops. They carry on mass |picketing, face gangsters and po- lice, and battle on. In the shoe in- | dustry it is the Independent Shoe Workers Union Which is organizing the workers. It has not yet reached | the 35,000 shoe workers in the city. | But the men and women are fighting | against all the forces of reaction— | at the head of which is the depart- | ment of labor of the United States, | aided by the state labor department. The U. S, labor department has been sending letters denouncing the union and its leadership, thinkin that to call it Communist frighten the workers, The*manufac- turers send other letters of the U. S. department of labongto the work- ers, praising the American Federa- tion. “of Labor, the Amalgamated | Clothing Workers, the Railroad Brotherhoods—calling them “genu- ine labor organizations,” believing that the workers will not clearly un- derstand that these “genuine” labor organizations are the organizations that today are working hand in hand with the government and the manufacturers against the workers. These organizations have as their motto to’ company-unionize the workers, and enslaye them so much the more to’the employers. “In scores they go to jail, these shoe workers, after fighting the | gangsters and police; in scores they return to the picket line unafraid of consequences, But these workers stick, for they know that Commu- nist-led unions are the only unions today that defend the workers. Food Workers Militant. In the food workers union the struggle is growing. Many tens of thousands of hotel, restaurant and cafeteria work in the city, unor- ganized, working 12 to 16 hours a ;day at low wages and ‘bad condi- tions. The spy system in this in- dustry is a vast one, but the food | workers are out fighting on the |picket line, enforcing conditions in |the shops, preparing for a struggle in the entire industry. Against them are the courts, the police, the socialist party, but in their ranks are the militant fighters who are unafraid of the courts and police, and battle like heroes, And in the leadership of this union, too, is the Communist movement, which gives them the,fighting policy and the militant class-conscious leadership. They do not stand alone. When the shoe workers picket the shops, the food, needle and other workers help them. picket the shop, the workers of the other industries show their -solidar- ity, and aid them on the line against all the foes of the working class, This is the solidarity which only the Revolutionary Industrial Unions of the Trade Union Unity League not only preach, but practice. Carrying it out on the firing line, where the police wantonly begt down the work- ers with their clulés, where they use their guns—but where the striking workers do not go away defeated, but with their fists and otherwise let the police and gangsters know that the workers of this country recognize their class enemies, The workers know that William Green promised to prevent workers’ movements to improve their condi- tions, while the bosses promised not to make any wage reductions. The bosses laughed up their sleeve, and introduced a series of wage cuts, for they knew that William Green would help to carry them through, for that is his function. And the bosses also knew that as long as there are courts police: andthe A. F. of L. and socialist party, they could be relied on to do their duty even if the cops get beaten up by the militant men and women on the picket line.
