Will Try Kaufman for Hiring Thugs and Strikebreaking Formally Charged Before Joint Council with Causing Members of Union to Be Stabbed, and Withholding Funds and Property NEW YORK—At the last meeting | man ts squandering money that prop- ef the Jomt Council of the Interna- tional Fur Workers’ Union of the ‘United States of America and Can- ada, affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, held on Tues- day, Nov. 24, at Stuyvesant Casino, charges were brought by Emil Koen- ing against Morris Kaufman. The charges presented in writing, in ac- cordance with article 5, sections 2 and 2 of the constitution, state: _ “I, charge Bro. Kaufman with vio- lation of Article 10, Section 1, of the constitution, which states that ‘all officers, whether local or ‘general, shall deliver to their respective sue- cessors all property tm their posses- sion belonging to the organization ef which they are officers.” Section 2— ‘all the funds and property of each local union shall be deemed held in trust for the benefit of the members and shall be used only as provided for in this constitution.’ “I charge thet Moris Kaufman re- fused to deliver to the duly elected joint council the property duly be- longing to the council and that he is using said funds to the detriment of the membership; to hire gangsters who -are beating up and cutting up the fur workers whose interests our union must protect. “I want to cite the following cases as evidence. The workers Ben Young Eddie Jenkins, D. Grossman, Fish- bein, Itzkowitz, Raee Epstein and some others were cut up in the fur market on Monday, Nov. 16, 1931. The gangsters hired by Mr. Kauf- man are Meyer and Irving Shapiro, Yacker, Steinberg, Tommy Levy, Matthews, Francis, etc. Kaufman, Strikebreaker. “I further charge that Mr. Kauf- man is acting as an agent of the bosses. He breaks strikes of the workers and is working hand in hand with the police’ department against the interests of the members and we cite the following cases as evidence: The strike-breaking activities in the Fox & Weissman strike, his letter to the police commissioner, Mulrooney, asking for police assistance, and breaking the strikes of the furriers for July increases. “I further charge that Mr. Kauf- TUESDAY W.

Mr. Kaufman galled police and detectives to prevent this duly elected body from performing its functions. The Joint Council is therefore forced to establish new headquarters at 422 Seventh Ave., from which it will carry on its activities in the in- terests of the fur workers. These charges are based upon the consti- tution of that organization, which in- structs the outgoing functionaries of the union to deliver all property to its successors. Kaufman has gone to Washington to conspire with the officials of the American Federation of Labor as to how to violate the will of the New ‘York membership and get rid of this regularly elected Joint Council. afety deposit box | * | Bluweiss, 370 7th Ave., N3 FUR SHOP | STRIKES; MANY | MEETINGS HELD Kaufman "Agents Try | to Rob More Workers |} NEW YORK—Three fur shop strikes whieh have been in progress since last week have been settled by the Industrial Union.

The former officials of Rathers’ Union, Local 224, Willie Cohen, Jack Flattery and Frank Grassio, who were expelled by the membership, are now trying to enlist the aid of the bosses and bureaucrats of other building trades unions to again force themselves on the lathers. ‘They openly declared that the master builders are supporting them, a fact well known by the rank and file lathers and one that led to their ex- | puision. Officials Cut Wages. A check-up revealed that the for- mer~ officials forced Jathers to ac- cept jobs at $5 a thousand, whereas the union scale is $10 a thousand, and that lather substitute workers receivel only 50 cents a room, a star- vation wage. A breakdown of the day room system would have made this condition prevalent ‘among all | lathers. ‘The lathers have appealed to the electricians to aid them in their struggles and to fight the attempts of their own officials to aid the ousted contractor agents formerly in the ranks of the lathers. The ex- pelled officials are now coleleting $5 a month fro mthose workers they have intimidated and given jobs on a cut wage scale. The failure of the international president to be present last week at the union meeting has been inter- preted as a reluctance of the inter- national to sanction the new admin- istration. Rank and file lathers have asked th enewly-elected Committee of Fif- teen—the present administration— why more publicity on the affairs in the latrehs’ union is not given, espe- cially with a view to arousing other building trades workers to come to their support and follow their ex- ample. | ..“We are pronouncing in good faith the words ‘the dictatorship of the proletariat’ and we shall make them a reality.” LENIN. | Bureaucrats Try to | BIGGEST DIVIDEND IN HISTORY” | Railway Union Offic- ials Seek Way to Cut Wages of Workers CHICAGO, Nov. 29.—Donald Rich- berg a liberal lawyer authority on public utilities and railroads, declared that the “largest dividends in history were paid owners of railroad stock in 1930,” and “railroads have been op- erating at a profit.” Richberg’s state- ment was made against the proposal of a 10 per cent wage cut demanded by the railroads. gard to the forthcoming mecting of | the officials of the 21 railroad broth- | erhoods scheduled here for Dec. 8.| The railroad union officials are try- ing to find some way of helping the railroad bosses put over the wage cut. of 10 per cent for the_1,200,000 rail- road workers. Because of the resist- | ance of the men ,this has been diffi- | cult. The railroad union officials were ready to grant a 10 per cent wage cut, if the railroad magnates would cook up some scheme of “‘unemploy- ment relief,” but even this round- about way of wage cut was not ac- cepted. They demanded a direct wage cut, This the union officials are now considering. ‘The answer to the proposed wage cut drive can be given by the rank and file of the railroad workers in preparing for strike. The statements of the railroad union officials shows that they are quite willing to go along with the bosses but fear the action of the men. Strike is the only weapon to defeat the wage cuts proposed by the rail bosses.

But the bosses did not suc- ceed to drive away the pickcts from | the laundry. It is worth noticing that the policeman did not even try to stop the gangsters from attacking | the pickets. Committees of strikers and union members in approaching scabs are fi faced with carloads of gorillas and | detectives. On one occasion when a committee stopped to talk to a work- er who is too terrorized by the boss | to go out on strike, the gangsters or | detectives pulled out guns and threatened the strikers with their lives, But the committee was not seared and insisted on their right in spite of the guns. The Laundry Workers’ Union, 260 E. 138th 8t., is determined to spread the strike in face of all difficulties |and put up a strong fight for the demands of the workers, such as, 1, The return of the 10 per cent wage cut to the inside workers. 2.

The Laundry Workers’ Union. asks all workers to come and help us in the strike activity. A Laundry strike must be carried on all over the city besides picketing the shop, and that is why we need help.
