NEEDLE WORKERS | MEET TUESDAY Employed and Jobless | Will Elect ct Delegates | | | NEW YORK. — The Needle Trades | Workers Industrial Union has issu- | ed @ statement endorsing the Nation- al Hunger March on Washington to} demand unemployment insurance, and endorsing the New York City | Labor Conference which will be held | in Stuyvesant Casino at 11 a. m. on/ Sunday. The statement of the N T WI ul points out that needle workers sac- | vifieed to the limit to build up unem- ployment insurance funds in the In- ternational Ladies Garment Workers, Amalgamated Clothing Workers, Cloth Hat, Cap and Millinery Work- ers and other such unions. Now these | funds have been plundered by graft- ing officilals and wasted, and large percentages of the members of those ‘mions are unemployed, hungry, fac- ing eviction, and generally miserable. “The Industrial Union calls a mass meeting of ail employed and unem-j} ployed needle workers on Tuesday, Nov. 24, at Bryant Hall, corner of Sizth Ave. and 4ist St. The union states: “The Needle Trades Workers In- dustrial Union calls upon the workers to organize not only for the partici- pation in this Hunger Mareh, but to orgsnize and demand from the bosses immediate Winter Relief. The bosses are parading as ‘humanitarian and charitable people,’ they are now pre- paring to force the workers in the shops to pay tribute to the fund, which will be used to finance the company unions and to break the struggles that are now looming in the needle trades industry. The cloth- ing manufacturers, the fur manufac- turers, and the cloak and dress man- ufacturers, want to degrade workers to beggary. They want the individual worker to come as avhelpless worker, as an unorganized worker to beg for charity. The answer of the Needle Workers must be: “Down with the charity schemes of the bosses. “Every cent of the bosses’ fund drained out of the workers’ sweat and blood of the workers belongs to the workers. “Needle trades workers, organize your unemployed branches. “Demand all funds be turned over to your unemployed branch. “Blect delegates to the Hunger March. “Come en mass to the meeting of employed and unemployed needle trades workers on Tuesday, Nov. 24, at Bryant hall, 6th Ave., 4ist St. “Collect funds for the Hunger March,” NOTICE Changes Headquarters The W.LR. office will be located from now on at 16 W. 2ist St, Work- ars organizations asked to take no- tice, THURSDAY FSU, Brighton Beack Br.

Aldermen Need Cash Payments NEW YORK.—At the meeting of the board of aldermen yesterday af- ternoon at the City Hall, Carl Win- ters, speaking for the New York Councils for the Unemployed, took the floor and declared that a million | workers in this city are unemployed and that they are being turned down | by chariyt and relief organizations all over the city. At this point he was interrupted: “We don’t want any speeches,” said the well fed alderman, “Be specific.” Winters started immediately to be specific by showing how big salaries of city officials, including those on the board could be cut to $5,000 a year, that Mulrooney’s police force could be cut, adding that if the city would see to it that the unemployed are fed and housed this winter there wouldn't be any need for the police- jmen, since they are only being used to club the workers who fight for better conditions. As soon as Winters spoke about salaries it got under the skin of the aldermen: “You ought to be ashamed to belong to the outfit you represent,” said one. “How did that fellow get in here,” said another under his breath. “You confine yourself to the budget or we won't let you speak at all,” said a third. In the meantime the chairman kept pounding hi$ gavel to intimidate the representative of the unemployed. Winters however continued unmoved. He voiced the demands of the Un- employed for real winter relief and also immeédiate cash payments, A representative of the socialist Party spoke about long and short term bonds in an easy good natured manner, He joked with the board and they with him. The board re- cognizes in him a kinsman, a neigh- bor politician, They were very plea- sant with him. Perhaps they can make good use of him in the future. A worker was foreibly ejected from the gallery for applauding the state- ment that the city government was full of corruption and the workers have nothing. Just before adjourning, Sadie Van Veen attempted to get the floor for the Communist Party when an angry real estate dealer jumped to his feet demanding the floor and shouting that he, as a tax-payer, had the right to be heard, was waiting for the floor. Van Veen shouted back: “Every worker in the crowd have more right to be heard; it seems that these hear- ings are only for tax-payers and real estate dealer and not for workers or starving unemployde.” The hearing is continued to Mon- day, at 2pm. All workers be there! TOSCANINI RETURNS TO PHIL- HARMONIC NEXT THURSDAY Arturo Toscanini returns to the Philharmonic Orchestra next Thurs- day night at Carnegie Hall. The pro- gram, which will be repeated the fol- Jowing afternoon at Carnegie Hall, consists of the Suite from Gluck’s “Orpheus,” the Bach Violin Concerto in A minor and the Beethoven Violin Concerto, both played by Adolf Busch and the Overture to Wagner's “Fly- ing Dutchman.” Next Sunday at the Metropolitan Opera House Maestro Toscanini con- ducts the following program: Over- ture to “The Flying Dutchman,” Wagner; “Rhenish” Symphony, Schumann; Variations on a Theme of Haydn, Brahms; “The Redemp- tion,” Franck; and “Pines of Rome,” Respighi.

TAXIMEN TO HOLD MEETING TONIGHT Make Demands on the Board of Aldermen Hackmen will elect committees to |present their demands to the Board of Aldermen for a living wage and better conditions at a mass meeting to be held at the New Harlem Ca- sino, 116th and Lenox Ave, Brooklyn and Bronx taxieab driv- ors have already elected their com- mittees and are collecting thousands of signatures to back up their de- mands. Besides the starvation wages the hackmen have to endure Negro taxi cab drivers are further imposed upon by Jim-Crowism in separate garages in Harlem. General Motors is favored for a monopoly of the industry by the Taxi-Commission which will report Preparations are being made for a mass protest against turning over the monopoly to General Motors. De- mands for a shorter work day with ® living weekly wage, no blacklist- ing and no jim-crowing of Negro drivers into separate garages will be through the organization of the cab drivers into the Taxi Section of the Transportation Workers Industrial League, 5 East 19th St., through mass meetings and the collection of thou- sands of hack-men's signitures on the petitions. At tonight's mass meeting Harold Williams of the League of Struggle for Negro Rights will speak as well as other prominent speakers jand rank and file taxi-cab drivers. WAGE CUTS RAGE WITH A.C. W. AID Threaten "Progressives of Cutters Local Prior to General Slash NEW YORK. — The Progressive Group of the Local 4, Cutters, now under Hillman control, was threat- ened with suspension, expulsion and terror by officials of the Amalga- mated Clothing Workers Union and warned against talking to each other in the streets or.elsewhere, at the last meeting of the local. ‘This latest act of Amalgamated terrorism is seen to be preparatory to pa general wage cut among the cutters, many who are now unem- Ployed, Serious dissatisfaction with the Hillman gang rule is growing among the cutters, who in the past two years have had their wage and working standards deeply under- mined, Bosses, Hillman Continues Wage- Cutting. Wage cuts in the men’s clothing industry continue without perceptible letup, with the leading offcials of the Amalgamated active in effecting and enforcing them, In the J. Freedman shop, despite the fact that the workers, at a shop meeting, opposed the wage cut of Tf percent demanded by the bosses, the Hillman machine officials insisted on a.0 t6 15 percent cut. The Amalgamated bureaucrats overrid- ing the workers, arrogated to them- selves the final decision on the wage cut, A most significant fact was the combined forces of local chairmen were needed to bring the weight of the Amalgamated company union to force workers of the Dan shop at 638 Broadway to accept a wage cut of 5% percent, The revised price list was worked out by Jackson, A. Cc, W. misleader, The move of the local chairmen comprising Canter, chairman of Jo- cal 3, Frank Berg, of local 2, and Julius Lipfshits of Jocal 5 is seen as the first step in effecting wage cuts in all Amalgamated shops in the near future. Indicative of the growitig hatred of the rank and file workers against the Amalgamated bureaucracy and the need for proper direction to the revolting workers, were the shooting of two Amalgamated bureaucrats by despair-crazed clothing workers in Philadelphia and New York. Trade papers also reported that B. Reinisch, business agent of |Local 266, San Francisco was shot and killed in his office November 17. STUDENTS PLEDGE TO DEFEND SOVIETS MERRA, Ark.—The students of Commonwealth College, upon hear- ing of the results of the British elec- tion, spontaneously called a mass meeting to consider the increased war danger against the Soviet Union.

There is talk of institut- ing a direct sales tax, whieh in ef- fect would supplement the mass jwage-cuts in reducing the workers’ standard of living. It would mean an addition to the price of commodi- ties that the workers would have to pay out of their severely cut wages. Hoover and Mellon, in consultation with the biggest New York bankers, are cooking up various tax schemes to raise the $2,000,000,000 deficit and take it out of the hide of the work- ers. Last year there was a govern~ mental deficit of over $1,000,000,000. While Hoover and Mellon talk of in- creasing taxes and exempting big business the United States govern- ment increases its war expenditures which amount to almost the sum of the deficit. There is no “deficit” very soon to the Board of Aldermen.| when it comes to preparing for a new imperialist slaughter. LOOT WORKERS TO GET “RELIEF” Corp. Heads Grab Nickels of Poor NEW YORK. — A corps of 17,000 solicitors is campaigning through the city from block to block and apart- ment to apartment, collecting the dimes and nickels of the wage cut workers for “unemployment relief” to be administered under the general direction of corporation officials and for the political advantage of the Democratic party. Ex-Governor Al- fred E, Smith is in command of this army. They have strict orders to get the workers’ money. There is not going to be any taxation of the rich, the poor are to be forced to aid the poor, College Profs Join Raid More than fifty faculty members of the College of the City of New York are collecting from wage earners on the upper west side, and are led by Rockefeller’s pastor, the “Reverend” Emerson. Foshick. Representatives of the seven Man- hattan Territories of the Emergency Unemployment Relief Fund, the high sounding name of the organization under which this taxation of the poor is conducted, held a@ little jubilee luncheon Tuesday in University Club and announced: “Wage Earners of New York Are Welcoming The Op- portunity To Share With The Un- employed,” Pay On Job. ‘The wage earners of New York haven't much chance ot dodge, Not only do high pressure collectors har- rass them at home, but the big cor- Pporations are without exception curt- ly hinting that if they don't give consent for a deduction in their we- ges “for unemployment relief” they can look elsewhere. All employees of the Hearst papers got a little notice to sign a blank giving consent to check off one per cent of their wages every week for 20 weeks. Employes of the W. P. Chrysler Building Corp. are notified: “The collection of your contribu- tions will be made on Friday, No- vember 21, Each employee will re- ceive two pay envelopes: one enve- lope contining one day’s pay, the other to contain the balance of mo- ney due them for week ending No- vember 18. “Til those wishing to contribute will return envelope containing one day's pay to the paymaster.” Scrubwomen in the Chrysler Build- ing, working seven hours a night for $16 a week, were also foreed to con- tribute a sixth of a week's pay.

J., Nov. 18,—While the Elisabeth Daily Journal, as the voice of the Elizabeth bosses, writes in Mockery about the destitution of the scores of jobless and part time workers in the port, and encourages them to cross over te Staten Island to pock coal at low tide “to relieve the dreads of winter,” the jobless and part time workers are preparing to present their own program for relief this winter for their children and themselves, é Unemployment is rampant in the port section of Elizabeth, and the only move the city authorities have made is to begin a registration of the un- employed “for jobs” that do not ex- jet. Those workers who are yet at work ere’on part time, as in the Sin- ger Sewing Machine, where they do not get enough even for the rent and gas. Under such conditions, workers find it impossible to send their chil- Gren to school every day, The workers are beginning to realize that the only way to get relief is to organize and demand it. On Bond Street, of thirty-five fam- ies visited by members of the Un- employed Council, thirtytwo mothers and fathers readily signed their name to a petition for free hot lunches, free shoes and overcoats for children of the unemployed and part time toil- ers. The demands will be presented to the Board of Education on Thurs- day, Nov. 19, at 11 a. m., at the board building on North Broad St, All workers, employed part time and unemployed, are called upon by the Unemployed Council and the Young Pioneers to demonstrate there.

While the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union went before the re- feree to whom the case was referred and fought the application, it did not depend on this legal fight, but con- ducted mass picketing. An appeal was issued to the members of Local 24 who also have operators on strike at this same shop to unite with the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union and join in the mass picket- ing.
