YOUNG FURRIERS TO STAGE MARCH |To End with Rally in Fur Market NEW YORK.—An open air dem- onstration of all young needle trades workers, especially of young fur workers, will be held Thursday, July 23, at noon, at 29th St. and 7th Ave. This demonstration is to show to the bosses that the young fur workers stand solid behind the Needle Trades Workers’ Industrial Union in every struggle that it leads. In the Dog fur line strike many young floor boys went back to work with their demands won. Their mili- tant spirit forced the bosses to take them back into the shops as union men. This struggle of floor boys as well as adult fur workers proves that the young workers in the Needle Industry can win their demands to- gether with the adult workers. We call upon all youth organiza- tions, especially the Y. C. L., to come to the union office at 131 West 28th St., 5:30 sharp, from where we will march to the Unity conference of fur workers that will take place in Irving Plaza Hall, 15th St. and Irving Place.

Paterson has been a sore spot to the federal authori- ties in regard to alien agitation, it was said, and this visit is the first of many to come.” Fakers Worried. The Associated Silk Workers and United Textile Workers, led by A. F. of L. fakers, are trying to confuse the workers, At first they declared they would not heed the strike cal) of the United Front Committee and the National Textile Workers’ Union. Then when they saw the tremendous support expressed by the workers for the General Strike Call they an- nounced they would call their mem- bers out on Aug. 3. With the strike meeting with response throughout the industry, the fakers are fearful that their membership might join the strike under the National Textile Workers’ Union leadership, and some of them say the date will be ad- vanced to Aug. 1. No definite in- formation has been issued. “The Paterson Evening News” tonight re- ports the proceedings of the A. F. of L. fakers a6 follows: “After a session that lasted far into the early hours of the morn- ing, the joint strike committee of the Associated Silk Workers and the United Textile Workers, asso- ciated with the American Federa- tion of Labor, were deadlocked on the question of whether or not to call an immediate strike of its 5,000 members or adhere to the original date of Aug. 3. The meet- ing will be continued this evening on the same issue.” ‘The same paper also states that these fakers, seeing the call of the National Textile Workers arousing the masses of workers, may be forced to issue a@ strike call soon. The effect of the strike on the in- dustry is admitted to be growing. “Paterson Evening News” de- clared that with the shops being pulled out at the present rate the whole industry would be tied up. Quoting the bosses, the “News” said: “If the Communist unit suc- ceeded in getting a sufficient num- ber of men out of the shops of the smaller weavers, they might suc- ceed in getting the dyeing and printing workers to strike.” GET your MINE STRIKE BUTTON. “Help the Miners’ Win’ buttons are being distributed free of charge to all workers who. call for them at the office of the Penn.-Ohio Strik- ing Miners’ Relief Committee, Room 330, 799 Broadway.

As presi- dent of the American Federation of Labor, Green is finding his role and task as chief strikebreaker in the ranks of labor harder as the crisis grows worse with ever more millions nearing starvation and wage cuts unceasingly harrying the working- BRONX WORKERS PROTEST BOSS WAR PLANS SAT. Will Demand War Funds for Jobless ' Workers BRONX.—On Saturday, July 24, at 3 p. m. a mass demonstration will take place in the Bronx at 138th St. and Brook Ave. in which thousands of workers will show their determin- ation to fight against the imperial- ist war preparations and for the de- fense of the Soviet Union. After the demonstration a march will take place from 138th St. to 161st St. and Prospect Ave., in spite of the fact that the Police Depart- ment did not give a permit as yet, as requested by the United Front class, Green finds he must follow a new line of boloney. “Stand by the presi- dent!” was his first way of telling the workers to meet the crisis. It doesn’t work now, so Green discovers that by a mild criticsm of capitalism he may fool workers into believing that he means business. He started off at the International Longshoremen’s Association conven- tion at New York City recently. The officers of the I. L. A. increased their own wages and made the workers pay for it. Green found that by yelling against wage cuts he could distract attention. He appealed to the capitalists to do something to preserve capitalism as the workers were getting wise and were beginning to fight. Following up this new line Green g@ave an interview to the Scripps- Howard newspapers in which he said “capitalism was on trial.” Green knows capitalism isn’t very popular just now with the millions of unem- ployed, and for that matter, with those still employed who suffer wage cuts and an attack against their standard of living. He knows his usefulness to capitalism will be increased by appearing as “a friend of the workingman.” Admits He’s Profound So Green says he is ready to give his “deliberate, patriotic and pro- (CONTINUED ON PAGE THREE) Miners Tag Day Saturday in N.J The Penn.-Ohio Miners’ Relief Committee of New Jersey District has obtained o permit for a tag day for Saturday, July 25, in Elizabeth, N.
