OR Saeed Ss DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 1931 Page Large SOVIET WORKERS BETTER OFF THAN WORKERS IN CAPITALIST LANDS, SAYS NORWEGIAN SAILOR. GENERAL STRIKE Lauds Conditions on Russian Ships; Officers and Seamen Fare the Same Workers When Sick Sent to Best Sanatoriums; All Expenses Paid By State Dear Comrades: Odessa, U. S. S. R. In a few words I will try to tell you what we seamen of a Norwegian ship, “Atland,” have seen of the life of the Rus- sian workers on Odessa. We arrived in port Friday, July 10th. The next morning we were visited by a comrade from the International Seamen’s Club and invited out to the club for the evening. There we had a fine time. The next day, Sunday, we were taken out to visit a Russian ship, Dniepr, together with seamen of an American and German ship. On this: sip we saw that the cabins of the officers were no different than those of seamen. All of them being built for two men. They had a fine room with showers. We were also shown the ship's laundry where the seamen get all their clothes washed free of charge. While we on our ship have to wash our own clothing as well as bring our bedding and eating uten- sils on the ship, these things are supplied the Russian sailors free by the ship. The Russian seamen were very glad to see us and were pleased to show us around the ship. One thing that impressed us much is the ship’s wall newspaper. Here we were shown an article written by a seaman giving the first mate comradely hell for not carrying out his work right. It is this comradely spirit of self-crit- icism that the Russian comrades cor- rect each other’s mistakes. After we got througl. visiting the ship we were taken to the Interna- tional Seamen's Club, which is housed in a fine building, which before the revolution was owned by an aristo- erat who spent only one month a year in it. Today the building is be- ing put to good use by the workers. Workers’ Sanatorium ~ Here at the club we were met by other seamen and taken out for an excursion to a sanatorium. This was ithe finest rest home that we have ever seen all modern new buildings, with acres of fine gardens surround- ing it. This sanatorium is located on the shores of the Black Sea. At this time there were 700 workers re- ceiving cures here for various ail- ments. The sanatoriunt has a staff of 25 qualified doctors with a great number of masseur, nurses, etc. We were shown \through many’ of the ‘rooms containing all kinds of elec- i tric apparatus for treating ailments. «We talked with many of the patients land they were all satisfied. They ; told us that the month's cure which they were getting did not cost them ‘one cent. That their expenses were all paid by the insurance fund of the factory and that in addition they were receiving full wages for the month. The assistant director was our personal guide. We talked with the patients freely through one of our comrades who knows Russian. ‘They all asked us how soon we would have a revolution. This sanatorium has a special lake which supplies it with mineral salt water and mineral mud \which is the best in the world for cures. Greeted With Cheers ‘That evening we went to the In- ternational Seamen’s Club. A Rus- sian comrade came around and in- vited us out to a workers’ club about ten in the evening. We accepted. There we saw a fine revolutionary kino, When we arrived the picture was stopped and we were greeted with loud cheers. We were led on the stage and from there extended our revolutionary greetings to them. ‘They in turn answered through their chairman that they were glad to wel- come us and hopes that we soon also would establish workers’ governments in cur countries through the over- throw of the bosses. On Monday night we again were invited to the Russian Seamen’s Club where a physical culture evening was being held. A German comrade in the name of the delegation extended greetings to the Russian youth. In his speech he protested at the ban- ning of Spartakiade in Berlin. After his speech a vote of protest at the banning of the Spartakiade was taken and a telegram was sent to Berlin. Then we saw one act drama and some fine athletic exhibitions per- formed on horizontal bars These were the finest exhibitions that we have scen in a long time. This gave us a good example of the new gen- eration of Russian youth and we saw in our tour the possibilities that the workers have there for mental and physical development. On the-whole we can say that the Russian workers are much better off in every way than the workers of capitalist countries. We saw how they run things here without bosses and we can say that we shall do,our part to help to defend the victories of the Russian workers as we recognize them as our comrades. —A Norwegian Seaman. ' Must Unite to Fight 4 Keasby Heights, N. J. Daily Worker: T had been out of work for three months, I was laid off for lack of work in the shop. I had been called to work last week by the foreman in the departmen: that I worked in. There was another girl. who was working there some time before, but had left to get married. She had been trying to get her job back for some time but the boss did not like her for personal reasons. When she learned through her) sister that I had been taken on, she went to the boss and told him that I was a Bol- Bosses. Says Worker shevik and always went to the Work- ers Home. That same day I was fired and she was hired in my place. I guess the boss got frightened and got rid of me before I started or- ganizing. ‘ If workers are to be lile this, there will never be any workers’ govern- ment in this cotntry. We must unite and fight against the bosses. It is workers like the one above who must be brought into our ranks and told how wrong they are in hating each other. Comradely yours, uP. Must Fight Hard for Our Lives, Says Miner Charleroi, Pa. Daily Worker: election time. These “friends of labor” asked about twenty miners how much they were making before the strike. After the miners in- formed them of the starvation wages the miners were working for, one of the fakers who said that we should go back into the U. M. W.

WORKERS SUPPORT CUBAN \Many Havana Strikers | Are Jailed | Reports from Havana show that while over 40,000 went out in the general strike to help the street~ carmen who are struggling againsta wage-cut, some of the labor lieuten- ants of Bloody Machado sought to divide the workers and keep them from action. Fighting took place between strik- ers and police in several places in Havana, according to Associated Press reports. An attempt by the Havana Electric Railway Co. to run street cars with strikebreakers failed when numerous accidents occurred and the people re- fused to use the street cars. Frank Steinhart, president of the Havana Electric Railway Co., is one of the richest men in Cuba, an American banker who got his money through land and other robberies. He is backed wholeheartedly by Bloody Machado, president of Cuba. Ma- chado used to be in the employ of Steinhart’s companies. Many arrests of strikers and their leaders was made Tuesday by the Havana police. In New York the workers are be- ing rallied to support the struggle of their Cuban brothers, ‘The Anti-Imperialist Conference of New York on July 24, attended by 40 American and Latin-American working-class organizations, unani- mously adopted a resolution to in- struct the new executive to organize an Anti-Imperialist Commission to Cuba to expose American imperialist oppression and mobilize all the anti- imperialist forces of the United States for the support of the Cuban workers and peasants in their strug- gle against the Wall Street-Machado terrorist regime in Cuba. The conference also sent a protest to Butcher Machado against the bloody suppression of the revolution- ary leaders of the Cuban workers and peasants. ‘The conference, through the re- ports and discussions from the floor, made the support of the anti-imper- ialist struggles of Cuba, a country under our very nose, the central task of all anti-imperialist elements of New York. : ILD GETS BAIL FOR WORKERS Far mer-Laborites Smash Meetings MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Aug. 5.— Following the breaking up of a pro- test demonsiration of the Interna- tional Labor Defense and the Un- employed Council at Elliott Park last ‘Wednesday by the police of the Farm- er-Labor administration, when six speakers were arrested while a crowd of 3,000 workers resisted the attacks of the police, four comrades were bailed out by the International Labor Defense and face trial next Wednes- day. They are D. R. Poindexter, Paul Anderson, Erickson and Steiner. \ In the meantime, the Farmer-Labor Mayor, Anderson, after trying to dodge the issue, finally came out in the open and ordered the police to break up all meetings and arrest the speakers “where there is a disturb- ance.” Meetings of the Unemployed Coun- cil, the ILD, and the Communist Par- ty are systematically broken up and workers are arrested. ‘Tremendous indignation is sweep- ing the Elliott Park neighborhood, where the workers have for a long time been under AFL and Farmer- Labor influence, but are beginning to see their anti-labor role now. The workers are circulating petitions pro- testing against the attack on work- ers’ meetings and denouncing Mayor Anderson. One anonymous worker sent in a letter to the Unemployed Council headquarters, offering to or- ganise a Workers Defense Corps to defend speakers from police attacks in the future. ALA. MOB HUNTS NEGRO VICTIM 24 ii f é r Fog Ss ee ans a if a i 583 unity of white and Negro workers in the fight against starvation. Their policy is to terrorize the Negro work- ers, and railroad some innocent. Negro worker to the electric chair, Plans to Push Strike to Other Fields Are Showing Progress; Picketing Continues (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Offensive is progressing. It is not progressing as fast as it could with a little better or- ganization and better mobiliza- tion, but some gains are re- corded. Vesta Coal Co. Mine No. 6 has been closed down. The company made a bluff of “closing-down for a week,” but the picket line has been growing day by day, the number of scabs in the mine decreasing day by day, and the mine for the last few days was made very unprofitable by reason of reduced forces. It was really shut doyn by the picket lines, and if it tries again to re-open, the same picket lines will shut it down again. Exactly the same thing has hap- pened to the Crescent mine of the Pittsburgh Coal Co Bigger picket Ines every day, fewer men in the mine, and the company closed it “for @ week.” Crescent mine was a hard nut to crack, for it is completely surround- ed by company ground, and the single place the pickets could meet near by without arrest for tresspassing was owned by a farmer who got scared and ordered them off after a few days’ picketing. Nethertheless, the pickets filtered through the woods, climbed trees and argued with the scabs from the tree tops, and also adopted other new tactics. They stopped a hundred at one time on the road to the mine, and 75 stayed in the patch and didn’t go even on the road. Vesta Coal Co. Mine No. 4 is crack- ing too. The picket lines grow, daily, and it is nearly down to the point where the other mines threw up the sponge. Picketing, stopped for a day or two by the terror, is resumed at Harmar ville. This mine was practically closed by loss of mento work in it before the campaign of arrests, shoot- ing and tear gassing started last week, and it will soon be. back to that point. Meanwhile the Harmar- ville pickets have taken a turn or two st the Curtisville mines, which never were on strike, and there is a good prospect to bring them out. The strike committee took notice of the new tactics of the strike break- ing United Mine Workers of America. ‘This outfit has about given up hope of holding big open mass meetings with Fagan and other fakers pres- ent. ‘These meetings are only pos- sible with such a display of clubs and guns, of deputies and state troop- ers, that anybody can see the meet- ing is’a fake. Instead the UMW now concentrates on quiet bribery either with-money.or “relief.”. In the Gib- ‘son miné, a group which began with accepting UMW “relief,” ended with scabbing and the declaration of the NMU that “UMW relief is poison,” is justified. Along with the poisoned relief goes a poison gas campaign by the UMW local leaders, the capitalist press and the operators’ henchmen everywhere, that the leadership of the present strike is “opposed to settlements” and “only wants to plant a red flag on every tipple.” Frank Borich, secretary of the Na- tional Miners’ Union, in his keynote speech to the meting of the strike committee today, explained with ad- mirable clarity the position of the NMU on this point. “The National Miners Union does PLEDGE FIGHT ~ ONEVICTIONS (CUNTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) workers and to divert the Negro mas- ses from the struggle against starv- ation. Special stress was laid on the need of pacifying the angry Negro mass. These fakers, however, are making no progress in their plans of betraying the Negro » For the first time in the long period of Negro persecution they are finding it difficult to betray the masses. A delegation representing +he mass organizations and the Communist Party today visited Acting Mayor Sexton and presented a document sharply condemning the massacre of workers and putting forward the de- mands for the stopping of the police terror and of evictions, the with- drawal of the police army which is attempting to terrorize the Negro district, payment of unemployment relief, equal for the Negro people, etc. Sexton, who was particularly aroused over the demand for equal rights and the withdrawal of the po- In‘ their efforts to deprive the mas~ ses of militant leadership, the big ca- against the Commtinists and declar- ing that “foreign agitators should be run down and expelled. ‘Their Amer- ican allies should be punished under our laws. It is the duty of national as clear as @ duty against invasion. The Communist regime centered at Moscow has de- clared war against democratic Amer- ica and its invasion should be met and \y : is a clear incitation for fur- ther terror against the working olass, and open declaration of war against the millions of unemployed workers who refuse to starve quietly and who dare to fight against the eviction of workers thrown out of the factories and unable to pay the rent extortions of the landlords, Sparta cs wily not conceal the fact that it 1s op- posed to the present system,” he said. “Who can defend 2 social system that starves the miners into rags and dis- ease, that fills the country as a whole with 12,000,000 jobless, that sends men in despair to take their own lives, that creates such a terror as exists in Kentucky and here also? We are for a system of workers’ and farm- ers’ rule like that which is being built up in the Soviet Union. But we fight in this strike for 55 cents a ton and for our other demands. On the first days of the strike we wrote letters to every coal operator and also gave the letters to the press, proposing a conference i». make agreements on the basis of our demands. This of- fer was repeated when our commit- tees went to Harrisburg to see Gov- ernor Pinchot, and when we picketed the White House in Washington in protest against the attempt to impose the UMW on us. We will issue an- other statement, making these de- mands and our proposal for an agreement on the basis of higher wages and improved conditions, ab- solutely clear. The attempt of the operators and the UMW to introduce our final aim, as though it were our only aim, and to represent to the miners that we think they will have to wait for a revolution to win 55 cents an hour and that we will not make agreements for higher wages, is an attempt to confuse the miners, discourage them and break the strike.” ‘The conference adopted a state- ment explaining its policy along this line, and scoring Governor Pinchot for his threat to send troops against the 40,000 miners who strike against starvation. “The Pinchot threat shows the operators know the strike is strong,” was the analysis of the situation by the strike committee. The conference adopted a plan for building organization among the men not on strike, to pull them out on strike. A program of mass meet- ings and house to house visits by committees of strikers was worked out, to go along simultaneously with the mobilization of pickets at un- struck mines. The strike committee cheered the addresses of John Melden, of the Metal Workers Industrial League, who told of steel workers on the picket lines at the mines, and of Ray Greene of the district office of the International Labor Defense, who told of the program of organizing defense committees throughout the field ALLENTOWN SILK STRIKERS SHOUT DOWN UTW ALLY (CONTINUED FROM PAGH ONE) bosses under the banner of the Uni- ted Front General Strike Committee and the National Textile Workers Union who are demanding that fak- ers get out and stay out. The police were called by the U.T.W. to protect them from workers and Pace was arrested. The workers then deman- ded that the police get out of the meeting which they were forced to do. Kelly then adjourned the meeting in @ maneuver to defeat the strikers’ demand. At that time two workers and Pace jumped to the platform and continued the meeting for another hour and half, The fakers scurried away from the meeting and were forced to run through the gauntlet of workers that they will not forget for many a day. An overwhelming majority of the workers to hear Pace, tearing the lies of Holderman and Budenz against the Paterson workers to shreds In exposing the treacher- ous role of the U.T.W. in their strug- gle, Pace conclusively proved to the workers that the U.T.W. was work- ing hand in hand with the police to enable the bosses to get scabs into the mills by forcing workers to ac- cept strike breaking agreements, rul- ing the state, county and city gov- ernments, limiting the picket line to 15 pickets and repeatedly ignoring the strikers demands that they be organized and lead in mass picket- ing. He also told of the attempts to terrorize the strikers, with talk of police clubbing, gas bombs, mil- itia, machine guns, U. S, army, etc. Pace also exposed the discrimination in giving out relief to the hundreds of strikers, with many starving fam- ilies getting no relief at all. The ULT.W. did not organize an efficient relief machinery in order to starve the workers back into the mills, In conclusion, Pace called upon thte strikers to oust the fakers from Jeadership and take the leadership of the strike into their own hands by electing rank and file strike com- mittees of three workers from mill, to organize a relief machinery that will get relief for all-strikers to keep them from hunger and starvation, to spread the strike into every mill in thte Lehigh Valley, and to go for- ward to victory united in struggle against the bosses with their fellow workers of Paterson, Central Falls, Pawtucket, Putnm and elsewhere. The call was met by a tremendous applause lasting many minutes, ‘The workers who followed the fakers when they scurried away from the meeting amidst the jeers and cat calls of the workers, reported that McDonnell and Kelly went directly to the police station which accoun- ted for the presence of the two po- licemen in front of the hall waiting to get Pace out of the hall, Pace, however, was missed by the police nermemepeen dR te RRR SSSR SESS SS I PUTS SELL-OUT | | OVER FOR BOSS! Local StrikeLeader Ex- poses Treachery | PROVIDENCE, R. I, Aug. 5.—The | ‘Weybosset strike came to an abrupt end through a sell-out engineered by Chris Dansereau, a loomfixer and the chief locan organizer of the strike, and carried out at a meeting of the striking workers held at the union’s hall on Saturday, Aug. 1, by a vote of 70 to 59, During the past week there had been a steady drift of the workers back to the mill Members of the union and even several members of the strike committee and of the mill committee had returned to work, Out of the 600 workers who came out on strike on July 8 about 250 remained on strike by July 31. (Despite the large return the strike was still effective since the weave shed was crippled by the strike.) The whole strike centered around the demand for the return of a 1214 per cent cut in wages which had been in force since December, 1930. Chris Dansereau, with a small clique, attempted to strangle the strike, and through his direct sell- out finally succeeded. He fought proposals for mass picketing. ‘The bosses enthusiastically greeted this sell-out. Walter Plante, chair- man of the strike committee, who was inveigled by Dansereau to visit the resident superintendent of the American Woolen Mill, has written a statement, showing up the betrayal of Dansereau and criticizing his own actions in visiting Mr. Eddy, resi- dent superintendent. The statement, in full, follows: “Imasmuch as I am being accused by some workers, including Jack O’Brien, of having betrayed the Wey- bosset, workers’ strike, on account of my visit to Mr. Eddy, I hereby de- clare: “First, my intention in calling upon Mr. Eddy was originally solely for the purpose of ascertaining whether Mr. Eddy was ready to meet, the strike committee to discuss the settlement of the strike. “Second, Chris Dansereau is en- tirely responsible for the plan to ap- proach Mr. Eddy on questions ‘con- cerning the strike. I frankly admit that it was a mistake to have agreed to meet Mr. Eddy at his office alone. My understanding with Chris Dan- sereau was that the strike commit- tee would be assembled and that my authority to meet Mr. Eddy would be from the strike committee and not from Chris Dansereau. “Third, I hereby disassociate my- self from Chris Dansereau and the whole scheme of betrayal which was his own act,” BLOOM STRIKERS HOLD OUT FOR ALL DEMANDS PAGE ONE) (CONTINUED FR berg Silk Mill, who has already of- fered the weavers the 48 hour week, went into conference with the strik- COMPANY AGENT Legionaires Smash Grand Rapids Aug. 1 Meet; Kidnap Speakers, Try to Drown Them | Workers Put Up Valiant Though Unequa! Struggle Against Blackjacks of Cops and Legion Thugs a Unholy Alliance of Press, Chamber of Com- merce, City Manager, Legion Tries to Smash the Movement GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Aug. 3.— On Saturday, August 1, an expect- ant mass of about 5,000 workers gathered in front of the Grand Rap- ids City Hall for an anti-war dem- onstration. It was known that the permit of the demonstration had been refused. The demonstration of February 25 had been broken up in a brutal manner by police and Le- gionaires. Every one waited to see what would happen this time. As the City Hall clock struck 3, the time scheduled for ‘the opening of the demonstration, a hush crept over the crowd. Two motorcycle cops were sitting in front of the City Hall, their motors running. No other cops were in sight. From the City Hall steps a young man stepped out of @ small group and opened the dem- onstration, The crowd surged for- ward, Legion Hidden in City Hall. The speaker had just gotten under way, when a group of legionaires rushed out of the City Hall and tried to grab him. The speaker fought so gamely that it took three husky legionaires to carry him to a freight car mounted on rubber tires, which had been prepared before- hand. A group of workers defended the speaker and themselves against the blackjacks of the American Le- gion thugs with great courage. One unarmed worker accounted for three of them, including the president of the American Legion Council, who had his glasses smashed, his face cut and his teeth loosened by a tremen- dous sock in te jaw. No brass knuckles were used as claimed by the lying capitalist class. After ten minutes of fighting, Comrade Arnold Ziegler, leader of the unemployed workers and a Scrip worker himself, began to speak. He was attacked by two plain clothes dicks, supported by legionaires, who tried to grab him and carry him to their car. A number of workers im- mediately came to his rescue and were driven back by a bunch of cops swinging their clubs with great bru- tality. The fight lasted for over an hour. Finally the legioridites drove their car with eleven prisoners out to the Plaster Creék by the Picrie Acid Plant, blidfolded them, beat them, fastened a rope around their necks, threw them in the river and forced them to walk back a long distance, cold and shivering. The lying capitalist press, whose reporters were present, placed upon this kidnapping outrage its stamp of approval and told lying stories about the fear and terror inspired in the workers by the brutality of the le- gion, which was the usual capitalist bunk. That the workers were not frightened by the cowardly tricks of the legionaires, was proven by the fact that in spite of the threats of tar and feathers if they returned to town, all our comrades spoke at an indoor demonstration which had Previously been arranged. Kidnapping Is Plan of Welsh and City Hall Gang. That City Manager George Welsh, and the gang of crooks in the city commission were behind this act of the American Legion is plain as day. Since the break-up of the February 25, demonstration there has been so much opposition to Welsh’s police- terror regime that he was afraid to attack and break up the May 1 dem- onstration. This time, however, in view of the acuteness of the war danger and the growing resentment against the recent Scrip cut, some- thing had to be done to smash the demonstration, without making Welsh and his police more unpopu- lar. So the legion was put forward as @ group of “pay-triotic American citizens” who decided to take inde- pendent actions against the “Reds”. ‘The legion was featured as a small band of heroes who fearlessly sailed into a crowd many times larger than themselves. This, however, is more bunk. Behind the legion there was 2 force of over a hundred uniformed cops ready to get into action when the fight got too hot. Besides the uniformed cops, hundreds of plain clothes dicks were mingled with the crowd, acting with the legion, using their billies with great abandon. And at the Creek, the fact became very clear, that this whole scheme had been cooked up at‘ the city hall. Among those participating in this outrage were “Welfare” director “Eat-Grass” Northrupp, a most des- picable hypocrite who expects un- employed workers to eat grass in the summertime; Tom Majchrzak, manager of the City soup house, Tom Walsh manager of the Grand Rapids Airport and a number of other petty ward-healers and cheap city politicians who showed very clearly the “long finger” the city hall The Grand Rapids Chamber of Commerce, the Employers’ Associa- tion and the City Commission may thingk that they have smashed and terrorized the movement of the workers against starvation and war. ‘They will fid however, that by their actions they have aroused thousands of workers who will join the move- ment to smash capitalism, unem- ployment, starvation and war, re- gardless of all capitalist terror of the fascist American Legion and all the others of their ilk.

Judge Frank Hanley, who presided at the fake company vote which attempted to break te strike, didn’t show up. It would have been too raw for him to try Conroy and so he apparently turned over the bench to Judge Robinson. Afraid of losing votes in the next elections the democratic city prose- cutor Mr. Munroe didn’t show up either and Capt. Kelly of the Ol- neyville police acted in that capacity. Conroy ably defended himself from the framed-up charge of “reveling” and exposed the police witnesses as strikebreakersand defenders of small time bootleggers. The capitalist judge however found Conroy guilty and fined him $5 and costs, a total of $11.95. ig al a PAWTUCKET, R. I, August 6.— Captain Hanna of the local police rushed into a meeting here of 200 Royal strikers on Tuesday and in- formed them that Joe Ott, owner of the mill, wants to see his workers. When the committee arrived in Ott’s office they discovered that this was a moye to attempt to divdie up their ranks. Ott told them that they can apply beck for their jobs, 25 at a time. He offered te strikers the complete wage cut. When the strikers received the re- port of the committee they decided to answer Ott by strengthening their strike, pulling the scabs out, and perfecting a thorough mobiliza- tion for the mass delegation which will visit Governor Case on Friday, August 7th at 2 p.m. Five of the box loom weavers who went in to work immediately rejoined the strike when thye were informed of Ott’s move. Mass meetings are being held every night-on the Woedbine Street lot. when he came out of the hall after the workers adjourned their meeting. PROVIDENCE, R.
