Vet Leader Speaks The second speaker, Walter Trum- | bull, a leader of the Workers Ex- | Servicemen’s League who was sen- |tenced to 30 years in jail for carry- jing on anti-work but later released, evoked tremendous enthusiasm when he told the massed workers that the |events of Bloody Thursday were not a defeat for the veterans, but on the contrary were a victory because the | veterans now realized that their fight for the bonus could not be separated from the general struggles of the working class. Trumbull described as dastardly the actions of the trops in bayonet- ting and gassing the war veterans |last Thursday, but said he was cer- tain that if Hoover called on them |to repeat their action again large | numbers of them would refuse, ; Hoover was called a murderer by | Trumbull because of the killing of the veteran Hushka and the death of the | bonus marcher's beby afer the gas | attack, | Ovation for Communist Party | Trumbull promised for the Work- ers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League that it would send organizers all over the country to organize a greater and stronger fight for the bonus and for unemployment insurance. that self-appointed leader of the vet- erans, Waters, the W.

AFL. PARLEY IN WORCESTER, Mass. Aug. 1— Fifty workers with placards picketed in front of the Hotel Bancroft today when the American Federation of Labor opened its state convention at the hotel. The placards demanded the release of Edith Berkman, mili- tant leader of the National Textile Workers Union, who is held a prison- er by Doak, of the Department of Labor, and also the release of Bar- ney Creegan, another militant leader held by Doak for deportation. The placards also condemned the stagger plan wage cut scheme put forward by William Green, and de- manded the passage of the workers’ unemployment insurance bill and the bonus for the veterans, and protested the Hoover murder terror let loose against the veterans in Washington. The militancy of the workers around tne hotel made the police afraid to interfere, MASS. PICKETED, MILLER STRIKERS LOYAL TO UNION Teather Workers Issue. Call to Workers to Stand Fast NEW YORK. — The Shoe and Leather Workers Industrial Union issued a statement today concerning the recnt I.

This move vf orderly retreat was made | after 12 weeks of miliant struggle, when signs of a@ break in the ranks, | under the pressure of hunger and | starvation, became very evident. To | ,, continue the strike any further would | have meant placing honest militant strikers at a disadvantage, The shoe workers must draw their lessons from this historical struggle. Government Strikebreaker 1, The Miller Shoe Co. could never have defeated this strike, if the fight would have been just between the union on one side and the boss on the other, Miller with all his wealth and strikebreaking experiences was | powerless against the determination jand fighting spirit of the crew, Mil- ler had to resort to the last means | in order to break the strike—The Injunciion—he was forced to bring in the entire governmen machinery | to break the strike for him, 2. Neveriheless, -in spite of the | injunction, the strike could have been | won had relief been forthcoming | more swiftly, had more mass ac- tivity been carred on the picket line, aftr the injunction was issued, not | only by the strikers but bu the | workers in the city of New York. | |The union feels the responsibility in | not having succeeded to mobilize suf- ficiently the shoe workers of Ne York as well as the mass of workers | of sympathetic organization to vio- late and smash the injunction. The union, the entire membershrip jof the union must be the first to carry this responsibility. 3. The strike, however, has deli- vered serious blows to the Miller | Shoe Co, Miller himself stated to the | leading strikers that the union gave | | him a good fight. The union came | out tremendously stronger; it has es- | tablished itself as an organization al- | ready rooted among the masses of | shoe workers, | After the strike the union stands firm, and the workers are going back with the fullest confidence in | our organization, with a determina- j tion to remain loyal to the union. 4. The shoe manufacturers can | learn a lot too by the outcome of the |Miller strike. Let them take heed, if they mean to raise their heads in defiance of our organization, the union is now more fit and better Prepared to defend the shoe workers than ever before or during the I. | Miller strike, | SHOE WORKERS! The union is | Row carrying on many more strikes. The Andrew Geller strike is going on_as ever before, Stand fast by the union! Speed with strike relief! Speed-up organi- | zation in your shop!

Mayor Walker is an open tool of Wall Street. This year, before the budget was adopted, Wall Street bankers openly demanded of him economy and threatened that there would be no loans to the City of New York unless these economies were put through. As a faithful tool of Wall Street, Walker has launched his pro- gram—a program at the expense of 147,000 city employes of New York. Under-paid workers, some of whom, such as hospital employees, get no more than $30 to $40 a month and have to contribute out of their earn- | ings to the unemployment relief fund, which is compulsory, have expressed themselves lately: “A man livin on $1260 with a family to support is asked to contribute one-twelfth of his income to the city.” One of them said: “Will the landlord who is re- ceiving benefits through decreased taxes let us off a month in our rent?” A second one stated: “This is just a racket to make the lesser emplofes pay.’ | Must Organize The worlyrs must organize and learn to use the weapon of strike.
