The mur- | derous attack upon the Industrial Union carried through last Monday | where innocent workers were maimed j and butchered, was part of this con- | spiracy.

The heroic resistance of the mem- bers of the Industrial Union at the time of the attack has momentarily nullified their plans. However the bosses and their agents will not stop at anything in order to prevent the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union from leading the furriers into struggle for better conditions. Al- ready there is evidence to this ef- fect. Bosses Plot New Attack on Workers In spite of the fact that the lead- ers of the A. F. of L. have issued a statement in “Women’s Wear” deny- ing the news that they have entered the fur situation, it is known that their representaitves have approached the assistant district attorneys in charge of the case with the express purpose of shifting the responsibility for the murderous attack on the backs of the innocent workers. At today’s conference, a report will be made on the latest developments |in connnection with the case and measures will be taken to intensify the campaign among the associated shops for imvroved conditions and for the establishment of the unem- ployment insurance fund. Already tens of shops are being stopped and settled by the Fur Department of the N.T.W.I.U. Among the settled shops are a number of important as- sociated shops. In all cases the union has succeeded in improving the | conditions and securing the unem- ployment insurance fund. Today’s conference will work out plans for mobilizing the workers of the entire needle trades industry in protest against the attempt on the part of certain forces to interfere with the case and prevent a thorough investigation. The conference will also lay the basis for a broad uni- ted front conference to launch a campaign against racketeering in the labor movement and particularly in the needle trades, where it has re- cently raised its head. Shops are called upon to be present at this conference. Where the shops have not had a chance to meet, the shop chairman and the committee are to represent the shop, The Fur Department calls upon the Furriers not to work overtime today and also calls the active members to the office and help striking shops. Labor Faker Jailed When He Tries lo Fleece Manufacturers NEW YORK.—Abraham Becker- man formerly of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers Union and rec- ently an agent of the A. F. of L. in the fur workers’ ranks was in- dicted yesterday on charges of ex- tortion made by the Fur Dressers’ Corporation. This faker who is no longer able to fleece the workers turned to the business of robbing the bosses, but was not as success- ful as he expected, MANY GROUPS AT ITALIAN ANTI. | RASCIST MEET Conference Decides to March in May Day Celebration NEW YORK.—35 delegates repre- senting many Italian working class | organizations at a United Front Anti- Fascist, Anti-Capitalist Conference at! | the headquarters of the Conference for Progressive Labor Action, 128 E. 16th Street., Thursday night decided} ' among other things to participate in the United May Day Parade with the Italian members of all these organ- izations to march behind one banner.
