Y.—In attempt to keep the workers in the fifth assem- bly district of Manhattan from hear- ing Harry Raymond, the Communist candidate for assembly in that dist- rict, speak on the program of the Communist Party in the election campaign, a cordon of Tammany police assisted by a gang of Tam- many hoodlums and misguided wor- kers attacked a meeting held by the Communist Party at Tenth Ave. and 48th Street Friday evening at nine o'clock. Two workers were knocked unconscious by the clubs of the po- lice and bricks thrown by the Tam- many hoodlums and many were se- yererly injured. The meeting had been called by the Communist Party election cam- paign committee as one of the regu- lar campaign meetings now being held throughout the city. The wor- kers on the west side have been showing an increasing sympathy | with the program of the Communist Party and many new members and sympathizers were gained for the Party in the last year. many gang, realizing this, have been busy for some time organizing their forces in the neighborhood to attack all Communist meetings. attempts have been made in this neighborhood {n the past to break up workers’ meetings by attack- | ing them with hangers-on who re- | ceive small favors from J. F. Kill- in this they mobilized the police to assist the hoodlums. The attack friday night was well organized, the police hiding in a nearby building waiting for the thugs to open the attack by throw- ing bricks. The police then joined the hoodlums and attacked the wor- kers, who were defending themselves well, the police slugging right and left with clubs and blackjacks split- ting workers’ heads and knocking them. unconscious on the sidewalk, The Communist Party will con- tinte to hold election campaign meetings on the west side and calls on all the workers to rally to these meets and protest against the brutal tactics of the Tammany police in not allowing the Communist candi- dates to be heard.

After 11 years of no strikes, the jewelry workers of Reiner & Berkow struck and won against piece-work and for better wages.

Tonight the Jewelry Workers In- dustrial Union is calling a special mobilization meeting at the Labor Temple, 14th Street and 2nd Avenue August 24th at 6:30 p. m.'to help the strikers on the picket line and to prepare to spread the strikes to other shops ready for struggle against piece work and starvation wages.

The firm signed an agree- ment with the union. All the de- mands of the workers were granted. The millinery shop of Brenner & Mittelmark of 39 West 37th Street signed an agreement with the union, granting the demands of the work- ers after half a day strike. The blockers of the shop who are mem- bers of the Local 42 of the Zaritsky company union at their meeting the day of the strike decided not to work with scabs. This decision surely helped to secure a quick settlement. Bathrobe Workers Start Campaign To Organize Shops At their membership meeting held Friday night in the auditorium of the Industrial Union, the bathrobe workers working now under sweat shop conditions unanimously decided to start a campaign to unionize their shops. It is expected that in the coming few days a large number of shops of this industry will go on strike ‘to bet- ter their conditions.

Head Lays Off Men The Western Electric Company, a subsidiary of the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Company, lo- cated at Kearney, N. J., has been lay- ing off on an average of 100 work- ers a week since the first week in June, according to the admission of the works manager of the plant. This “official” figure is undoubtedly an understatement of the real num- ber laid off. In any case, this is the real background of the Hoover- Gifford “conferences” on ways and means as how not to give relief to the millions of unemployed and their families during the coming winter of stark hunger and starvation. Gifford, the director of the Hoover “unemployment relief” campaign, is the president of the American Tele- graph and Telephone Company which has been firing workers for months. help the strikers in their picketing.

Suitcase Makers to Meet to Plan Fight On Cuts and Layoffs A meeting of suitcase, bag and portfolio workers, organized and un- organized, employed and jobless, will be held Wednesday, August 26, 7:30 p.m, at Manhattan Lyceum, 66 East 4th Street. ‘The meeting will be in the nature of a mobilization of the rank and file workers of the trade to discuss ‘ways and means of resisting the at- tacks of the bosses on the living standards of the workers which are growing worse every day. ‘Wages in the industry have been cut without stop. In the open shops because of continuous cuts the work- ers are compelled to work unlimited hours, GERMAN WAGES TO BE SLASHED STILE FURTHER Socialists Prepare Betrayal By Fake Opposition Threats The Bruening government in Ger- many is preparing a further attack on the living standards of the masses through “a relentless lowering of wages and salaries.” This is being done at the command of the Federa- tion of German Industries, the cen- tral organ of the German trusts and bankers. The Federation has put the demand for wage-cuts at the center of its general plan for the worsening of the standards of the German masses, In order toggeep hold of what sup- port it still has among the German working class, the German Social- Democratic party is starting a fake campaign against these proposed wage-cuts. During the past several months and particularly since the Hoover moratorium plan, the be- trayal of the German Socialist party hag caused tens of thousands of German workers to leaye it and join the struggle against hunger and mis- ery and capitalist oppression under the leadership of the Communist Party of Germany. The German governnient, further- more, is cutting all municipal ex- penditures which might benefit the workers. In this campaign to reduce government expenses at the cost of the German workers the Socialists are playing the leading role * Unusual Wholesome Dishes Made of FRESH VEGETABLES & FRUITS AFTER THEATRE SPECIAL LUNCH 50e DINNER 65¢ ARTISTIC SURROUNDINGS QUALITY Foon: Trufoo VEGETARIAN RESTAURANTS 153 West 44th Street 110 West 40th Street (East of Broadway) ‘True Food Is the Key to Health HEALTH FOOD Vegetarian Restaurant 1600 MADISON AVENUE Phone University 4-9081 AMUSEMENTS 3y6naa Neve6unua DR.
