A few weeks ago, during a soap wale at this store, each girl had to sell 25 dozen cakes of soap. If we didn’t do this we had to pay for the Soap ourselves. We are supposed to get dinner money when working un- til 9 p.m. To avoid paying this mis- erable 50 cents, they send us home at 8:30 each night, On Sept. 26, the last day of daylight saving time, we worked until 9 o’clock and then they moved the clocks back to 8 o'clock so that they wouldn’t have to pay us the 50 cents for dinner. These clocks should not have been touched until Sunday 2 a.m. Newspapers print the crimes of racketeers and do not publish the crimes of Gimbel Bros. because of the thousands of dollars they receive in advertising. iL FOOD STORES TAKE “RIOT INSURANCE” (By a Worker Correspondent) FRANKLINVILLE, N.

And work- ers who receive only a bare pittance, a starvation wage, are being “urged” (blackjacked) into giving “at least one day’s pay to the chest.” A ‘large Negro population, the most downtrodden and needy group in the city, is not represented in any man- ner whatever by the Community Chest, The only way workers here will get any relief from starvation this winter is by organizing all together, Negro and white.

MASS PAY CUTS HIT SAN DIEGO U.S. Government Cuts Fire Fighter’s Pay (By a Worker Correspondent) SAN DIEGO, Cal.—Here are some of the wage cuts tha have taken place in San Diego, Yast May the Standard Dredging Co. slashed wages 10 per cent and cut out all overtime pay. The federal government has cut the wages of the fire fighters from 35 to 30 cents an hour. The San Diego Railway Co, em- ployes’ wages were cut 8 per cent. This wage-cut took place Sept. 1. Before the fish canneries closed down last January the workers were getting 40 and 50 cents an hour. When they opened in March this year, the wages were slashed to 35 cents straight. The workers in the fish canneries worked only 20 days ' Bosse (By a Worker Correspondent) JAMESTOWN, N. Y.—Workers at the Art Metal Shop No, 1 had their wages cut from two to 12 per cent Monday, October 5. With this the workers refused to start to work and about 300 started to parade in the shop. The superin- tendent, came in and told the workers |to go back to work, but the workers refused, saying that their wages were jalready cut to the bone and they | were not willing to accept this wage cut. ‘The superintendent said, “We have a $200,000 order and we are trying our best to keep you working. Now I am satisfied with all of you. Be good and go back to your bench.” Demonstrate In Plant. When the workers refused to do this he told them to get their coats and get out of the plant, but the workers refused to leave the plant and paraded all day. The boss then selected a faker, G. S. Peterson, a foreman of one de- partment, who took the initiative in calling @ mass meeting Monday, Oc- tober 5, at Nordic Hall. Previous to jhe meeing he came to the Trade ; Union Unity League headquarters in |the Arcade Building and demanded Metal Shop Against New Wage-cut T.U.U.L. leadership from Comrade Munson, T.U.U.L organizer, and Comrade G. L. Anderberg, Commu- nist candidate for mayor. He asked them to address the workers, which they did giving them the T.U-U.L. policy. These workers, about 400 of them, were enthtised by the address of our comrades and demanded that we ar- range another meeting at the same hall on October 8 for all the metal workers in Jamestown. But when we came to this, meeting we found a committee selected by the boss to mislead the workers. Instead of or- ganizing them into the T.U.U.L. they had planned to organize a company union. They separated the metal workers of other shops, sending them upstairs in the balcony and excluded all those who had organized the meeting. In other words the meeting was run by the bosses. But in face of this the T.U.U.L. committee succeeded in getting in ® (By a Worker Correspondent.)

In the Soviet Union they only work seven hours a day with a ten minute rest every hour.” The crew also distributed some cigarettes and some literature, which they brought from the Soviet Union, Around the ship one could see groups of workers discussing the Soviet Union wtih the crew.

When the unemployed branch of the South Side of Chicago sent out various committees to canvas vacant flats and all dilapidated buildings to house the many thousands of home- less workers who are sleeping in Washington Park and many other parks and hallways, they also sent a committee to the G.
