DETROIT, Mic Jan. 11—More than 500 auto workers at the Briggs Waterloo plant here have gone out on strike against a 20 per cent wage- cut. The strike started in the tvol and die room and spread to the main- tenance, machine and boiler depart- ments. A rank and file strike com- mittee has been elected and is con- centrating on spreading the struggle ‘to the production plant on Mack Ave. Both Shifts Voie. The day shift voted last night for the strike, and the night shift voted at six this morning to come out if the cut went through. ‘The strike is a direct result of the activity for the Auto Workers’ Con- ference, which will be held Sunday, Jan, 22, at 2 pm., at. Finnish Hall, 5969 14th St. .A strike started two weeks ago in oné section of the production de- partment, but failed to develop be- cause of lack of organization. Auto Union Helps. The strike committee has asked the Auto Workers’ Union to co-operate and give leadership. The union has helped to organize the strike by building committees in the plant dur- ng the last few weeks. Briggs produces bodies for the Ford, Chrysler and Hudson plants. Re- ports have been received from, work- ers in the Ford factory stating that Ford plans to turn over a section of his Rouge plant to Briggs to make bodies.

FUR WORKERS shop chairmen and delegates mect PICKETS PROTEST AFL WAGE RACKET |Demand Full Payment for Armory Workers NEW YORK.—Picketing was re- sumed again yesterday in front of the 15th Armory at 143rd St. and Fifth Ave. Around 30 Negro and white workers and their sympathizers car- ried banners protesting against racke- teering and distrimination by the city and A. F. of L. officials who not only discriminated against Negro workers in the allotment of jobs at the arm- ory, but worked hand in glove with contractor John C. Wilkie who de- ducted $14.50 each week from the pay envelope of every worker during all of the time the job was in prog- ress. To Hold Demonstration “We demand our wages!” “We de- mand decision from Berry!” read the banners carried by the pickets. These banners made direct reference to the hearings now being held in the of- fice of Comptroller Berry, before whom the workers exposed the wage robbery racket and demanded the return of their stolen wages. But Comptroller Berry has been dragging out the hearings in the at- tempt to discourage and wear out the workers.» The case has been before him for over three months. All of these workers are members of the A. F, of L. The corrupt officials of this organization not only co-operated with Bpry in squashing this case but are ‘hand in hand with the em- ployers on other jobs, and notably on the Radio City job, where the workers were supposed to get union wages, but were robbed through the same racket as these workers were robbed. It is to expose this entire racket, to compel the return of the wages due and to protest against discrim- ination against Negro workers on the armory job that a demonstration will be held this Saturday, January 14, 10:30 a. m, at the armory. Soldiers Get Leaflets While picketing was going on, Ne- gro soldiers of the 369th Infantry regiment which is stationed at this armory came out to see what the picketing was about. They were given leaflets by the workers who explained that that they were victims of the same conditions which cause the herding of these Negro soldiers in separate Jim-Crow regiments. Both, the picketing this morning and the coming demonstration have been arranged under the leadership of the Trade Union Unity Council whom the Negro workers asked to champion their fight after they had been betrayed by officials of the A. F. of L. The TUUC is determined to extend the fight in this case on the broad- est possible basis, and to involve the workers of the A. F. of L. unions as well as of other organizations in ex- posing and combatting the outrage- ous racketeering now prevalent on supposedly union jobs. Hold Conference At the same time a legal fight will be carried on at the hearings being held at Berry's office. In conference of the workers with the TUUC at- torneys Tuesday night plans were made to carry the case before the Supreme Court, if necessary, to show | | | | | | Some few other hospitals carry two | ers are rushed through at the rate of DAILY WORKER, N ero Workers) Suffer in “Medical "Lair of the Tiger (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) | the case of Mrs, Estelle left Smith who] a serious er beir eondit in the H 24 without a doctor.

This obviously al- lows much less than a minute for each case to be diagnosed and treated. Capitalist medical “ethics” are supposed to require at least ten minutes for merely getting the k tory of the case before examination. Untold thousands of workers are sent away from the clinic, unexam- ined, to develop serious diseases from| causes which might have been! checked. Such Negro papers as the New York Age and the Amsterdam News, under the control of the Re- publican and Democratic bosses have been forced by the mass pressure of the people of Harlem to carry ar- ticles exposing the discriminations against Negro doctors. Almost each week, another Negro doctor on the Harlem Hospital staff is fired or forced to resgin because he openly fought against the dominating white “medical’ bosses. But these papers devoted very little space to what was happerfing to the Negro workers on the operating tables and beds of Harlem Hospital. Dr. J. G. William Greef, Tam- many Commissioner’ of Hospitals, who has probably visited Harlem Hospital no more than once, denies the charge of discrimination against Negro doctors and nurses. To- morrows Daily Worker will expose the conditions maintained by Drs. Conners and Wright, acknowledged “political bosses’ of Harlem Hos- pital, with the backing of Dr. Greef. WAITERS FORCE WAGE PAYMENT Picket Steuben Tavern, Win Their Demands NEW YORK.—Recently the Steu- ben Tavern, 47th St. near Broadway, took on about a hundred waiters for steady work through the Sixth Ave- nue employment “sharks.” Immediately after the New Year's celebration, they were all fired. They were told hazy things about “busi- ness wasn’t good,” “times are get- ting worse.” That was all that they were told. But many strongly sus- pected that this was only a trick to cheat them out of the regular $5 for New Year's evening work that was due them. A group of the waiters registered their grievance with the Food Work- ers Unemployment Council. They went to the Steuben Tavern with their demands, - The boss refused to see them, An open air meeting and a picket line forced the boss to pay the pick- eting workers their full wages. All other waiters who have grievances a- gainst the same restaurant are urged to see the Food Workers Unemploy- ed Council, temporarily at 4 W, 18th Street. Last week an unemployed cafeteria worker, with the aid of the Food Workers Unemployed Union, forced the Jewish Social Service in the Bronx to grant him and his family relief. A food ticket was immediate- ly given him. His rent, gas and elec- tric bills were paid for him.

Under all capitalism, young and old, the everlasting truth! the work- ing class pays for the crisis. Lenin here put Marx’s interpreta- tion of capitalist crises forward—on revolutionary banners. Continuing, in the same article, he tells us: “Stagnation in industry ace companied by famine among the peasantry, Unemployed workers are sent from the cities into the country, but where can the unem~- ployed peasants go? By sending the workers into the country, the authorities desire to clear the dis- contented out of the cities; but perhaps these migrants will be able to reuse at least a part of the peas- antry from their age-long submis- sion, and induce them NOT ONLY TO PLEAD BUT TO DEMAND” (emphasis ours—Ed.). Such was the development of revo- lutionary slogan against capitalist- imposed misery in 1901, by Lenin; the great strength of the correct evaluation of the role of the prole- tariat; Leninist tactic based on Marx. Two memorials will ge held this year. One marks the fiftieth anni- versary of Karl Marx, in March. New York workers are preparing to attend the Lenin Memorial, which comes earlier, on Jan. 21, Extensive programs are being arranged. Brook- lyn workers will gather at Arcadia Hall, 918 Halsey St., and Bronx-Man- hattan workers will assemble at the Bronx Coliseum. Both meetings start at 7:30 pm. . * CORRECTION: In yesterday's ar- ticle, the date of the “Sotsial Demo- krat” quotation should read 1915 in- stead of 1925, ARGENTINE IN A STATE OF SIEGE A special session of the Argentina Congress was terminated yesterday by emergency decree of President Justo following the spreading of the rebellion in several Argentina prov- inces.

Meanwhile a crowd of over 400 people gathered. They protested and stubbornly resisted the police.

They demand that three workers’ families, who last Friday received 10 days notices of eviction shall not be evicted. Picketing Tuesday and yesterday was going on strong and open air meetings were attended by several hundreds, the neighbors promising their full support. Many tenants in houses near by have declared their intention to or- ganize and join the strike, and hun- dreds of workers in the block have promised to help in the mass pick- eting teday.

DE VALERA SHIELDS COSGRAVE DUBLIN, Jan, 11—Calling out of troops to protect the meetings of the former president and British agent, Cosgrave, loomed as an immediate possibility as both the Police Chief and President De Valera expressed their detrmination to afford . Cos- grave and his party every necessary | protection from the enraged Irish workers. him. - As an answer to this, the Clare- mont Parkway Block Committee, to- gether with the Middle Bronx Un- employed Council, organized a mass demonstration in front of the build- ing, as well as a large picket line. When the landlord and his agents of the Greater New York Taxpayers Association saw the determination and the militancy of the workers and their neighbors, they asked for an- other conference, The Claremont Parkway Block Committee calls upon the workers to help picket, and not to listen to the lies of the landlord and his agents.

At a meeting of the Com- mittee of 100, held the same day, the proposal of the Unity Committee months with the Meschraprom Film Company, Well and happy.” to stop a minimum of 200 shops in the next three or four weeks was enthusiastically accepted. The vol- unteers of the Committee of 100 pledged to do everything possible to carry out this important task in preparation for one united strike. Yesterday afternoon, with some committees functioning, eight shops went on strike, some of them con- nected with important jobbers. Beginning with the next week, the Dressmakers Unity Committee ex~ pects to develop the campaign in a larger scale, and to operate also in the outlying sections, such as Brook- lyn, and the Bronx. The eight shops stopped yesterday employ close to 200 workers. The Dressmakers’ Unity Committee calls upon all dressmakers, whether mem- bers of the International, Industrial or open shops, to bring their com- plaints to the office, 140 W. 36th St. and they will be given prompt attention, Particularly what is nec- essary is information regarding the jobber for whom they are working. pee eds Workers will be glad to know that a sale was advertised in Sunday's Times by a Fifth Avenue jeweler, offering a $60,000 pearl necklace for @ mere $30,000.
