ony ‘Iwo HENDERS' JOINS | PLOT DEFENSE’ Orders Ambassador to Protest Exposure nd, Dec. eign Arthur roused great cheers from benches in the House of yesterday by lining up squ the oth coun’ their “pr the discovery of the war plot they had cooked up together with the otage ring in Moscow Henderson is a prominent member of the labor party and, like the rest of MacDonald's “labor — cabinet seems dete d to be more reac- tiona perialistic than even the Tories could be, Several days ago, on being in the commons whether he had r taliated in any way against the e: posure of the fact that the Rus directions from the heads of the British oil trust, arms manufacturers and officers of the British ar eral staff, Henderson ed fi said he did not see his way ke action then. Ambassador Protest: Yesterday he came out statement “His majesty’s ambassada at Moscow, accordingly on my instruc- tions, has informed the Soviet Government that in so far as the comments of the public prosecutor on the depositions made by the ac- cused have been acecpted officially by the Soviet, I take exception to those passages which contain ad- verse and unfounded reflections upon the late and present govern- ments,” This shows the MacDonald cabinet behind the sabotage ring and war plot against the Soviet Union as openly as the sabotagers’ confessions did, and almost as openly as the Lloyd George government did when it was sending troops and munitions to kill the Russian workers. It will be noticed, incidentally, that Hen- derson not only defends his own government's plots but those of the Lioyd George and Baldwin govern- ments. The British government, now, like the French government, is trying to make a cause of war out of the mere discovery and publication of the fact that they were already planning war. They pretend that this discovery is a “great insult” to them. 200,000 THREATEN STRIKE IN BRITAIN Reports by the Associated Press from Manchester state that 200,000 mill workers in Manchester are threatening to tie up the textile in- dustry because they refuse to accept a wage cut and worsening of their conditions in view of the ending of the union agreement with the bosses. The bosses are-trying to speed up the workers by forcing them to work at eight looms instead of four as previously, thereby not only handing the workers a big cut in wages, but firing at least half of the weavers now employed. 1931 CALENDAR FREE!

The bosses are re- ported absolutely frantic over the fact that the strikers were able to j organize themselves so quickly and present such a united front. The company had expected a disorgan- zod strike, and thought they could intimicat and start a stampede back to work. They it ; fool ied. When the elected *, renreseniing all de- riments came down to see Rich- ards, the big boss, yesterday noon, the police officer who acts as mes- senger boy for the management came to them and said that one from each department could come in and discuss matters. Twenty-five, repre- senting the 25 departments, walked up and were stopped, the policeman explaining then that ment would see them one at a time. He even wanted to pick out those he would see first. The committee absolutely refused to be divided; went back and held a meeting, and decided on the policy consistently refusing to fall for this sort of trick. The bosses’ conference called for yesterday is now said to have been postponed until today. “On The Line.” Foremen stood around today, and tried to argue some of the workers in their departments into coming back. They had been given this line of talk to spread: “They're all going back; only the leaders will be black- listed; you come back now or you may be blacklisted.’ Postcards are being sent to some of the workers by the company, with the same argu- nents. But the strikers know that their unity is their strength, and the only way to smash the ten per cent wage cut and stop wage cuts in the future, as well as blacklisting, is for all to stick together. The picket lines this morning and noon time were excellent; hundreds of worke marching and singing “Solidari' and “On The Line.” These strikers may be inexperienced, Bosses x rs FOR SALE—Three rooms furniture, recently purchased—sacrifice, Call ALG. 7956 for appointment.

Enacted by a na- tive cast, “Igdenbu” brings a story that has been laid in the Siberian wastes where the native Nomads battle the elements of the frozen north in order to live. In a story that has been called the Russian counterpart of “The Silent Enemy,” “Igdenbu” is the hunter who conquered superstition, hunger and the mighty elements; and was able to foster a spirit of love with defeat staring at him from out of the frozen wastes. “Igdenbu” is an example of the Soviet Russian art and their efforts to inject novelty into their produc- tions by using a strictly uninstructed cast in a film that is made entirely to Feature Cameo Show Fri. ‘Tedenbu”’ JOBLESS WORKERS TELL OF FIRING BY A.

The workers were lined up on the outside of th agency. The wind was blowing a shivery blast. Most of the unemployed had no overcoats on. Some had waited here daily for weeks. No jobs were forthcoming. Milton Stone, one of the leaders of the Oct. 16th march to City Hall, explained the fight the unemployed council was carrying on for real re- lief. He said things would get worse. The workers must fight for unem- ployment insurance, as well as for immediate relief. Other speakers called on the un- employed not to stand by, freezing and starving, but to organize and fight for relief. After the outdoor meeting, an in- door meeting was held at 27 E. 4th St. Many of the unemployed joined the Council. Many members of the Downtown Unemployed Council took active part in the picket line of the Eagle Pencil factory workers who are on strike, demonstrating the solidarity employed wage-cuts. in the struggle against held yesterday in front of the fake | of the} 2 FREED c ALL FOR INJUNCTION FIGHT Cornelius Stevenson Is Greeted at Banquet NEW YORK.—A large crowd of workers massed in Manhattan Lyceum last night to welcome back to the struggle two workers of the Food Workers’ Industrial Union, Cornelius and Stevenson, who had served 18 months of a framed-up 3- year term in Welfare Island for their fight against injunctions. An enthusiastic greeting was given the two workers who were not daunted by their imprisonment. They are now out on parole. Stevenson, during the latter part of his impris- onment, was sent from Welfare Island to the West 53rd Street Po- lice Station, where condiitons are worse even than on Welfare Island because he was charged with having aided Comrade Minor in an alleged exposure of the rotten conditions on the Island. Both of the released comrades said they watched with live interest the struggle of the workers against in- junctions, and that they were glad now to be back in the fighting ranks of the Food Workers’ Industrial Union. They were determined to carry on the fight. Jack Johnson, secretary of the Trade Union Unity Council stressed the necessity for broadening the fight against injunctions, and agaist the A. F. of L. officialdom who had now allied themselves with the boss courts jon the injunction question. Fred | Biedenkamp, ~chairman of t he “Smash the Injunction” Committee, called on the workers to rally for a sweeping mebh against injunctions.

This atmosphere soon took form in arious challenges as to their right to be there. One white worker want~- ed to know if it was their “first time here.” Another put the question more bluntly and asked them what hey weve doing there. To both ques- tions the Negro comrades very prop- srly replied by telling their question- to go to hell. An attempt was then made to “gang” them, A white worker went around the hall trying to organize a gang fo rthe purpose. Approaching ‘Comrade Fish, a Young Communist League member from Massachusetts, he tried to enlist his aid, and was immediately asked how would he like it if the advanced white workers present joined with the Negro work- ers to throw him out. “That's what will happen to you if you try any w'**e chauvinism around here,” he was told. Comrade Fish at once walked over to the Negro comrades as concrete proof of his intentions of opposing any attempt to throw them out. All of the girls present refused their invitations to dance, until two girls from the Harlem Young Com- munist League came in and smashed the vicious, anti-working class spirit of the affair by fraternizing with the Negro comrades. Comrade illiams promises a search ing investigation by his Section Com- mittee of the activities of the Come munist fraction in this organizae tion. In this he will be backed by the entire Party which will want to know the reason for the fraction’s failure to win these workers to the Communist program for uncondi- tional equality for the Negro masses, For AQ Kinds of Insurance” ([ARL BRODSKY phone: Murray Hill 55st 7 Kast 42nd Street, New York 657 Allerton Avenue Estabrook 3215 Bronx, N ¥ DEWEY 9914 Oftice Hours: M.-9 P.
