A company union had been organized by the owners of the Fifth Ave. buses. It was the kind of company union where the “union” officials were elected by the company itself. The bus company did not even pretend that the workers would elect them. The workers started organizing their own union. The company hoped to stop this by discharging the active workers, but sentiment for organization among the work- | ers continues, Workers’ Committee to Demand End of Jim- \Crow Tactics in Pitts. PITTSBURGH, Pa., August 22—A delegation of representatives of vari- ous working-class, trade union and fraternal organizations, headed by the International Labor Defense will appear before the Pittsburgh City ‘Council on Wednesday, August 23rd in a demand that discriminations against Negroes cease in the Pitts- burgh district. Recently a group of Negroes were viciously attacked in the Highland swimming pool when they tried to obtain admittance into the pool. Another important discrimination revealed by the ILD. is the fact that while Pittsburgh has a large Negro population, not a single Ne- gro school teacher appeurs in the list of teachers here.

She proclaimed that} she could not allow us to go up. We said we were invited by the tenant of the house and in single file we walked | by as she looked on helpless and} exasperated. And so we arranged ourselves and} the meeting started. We listened to} the Workers’ Ordinance read in Eng- Jish and Italian and unanimously sup- | ported its proposals. Two Italian | workers were elected as delegates to| the Conference Against Evictions and | Relief Cuis to be held on August 19, | at Irving Plaza In the midst of the discussion a worker from the house came in and| told us that the landlady had called | the police. Instantly there was a pro- test that we were orderly and peaceful and the police had no authority to} eject us. | ‘Three police appeared with the| landlady and the tenant of the apart- | ment went out to meet them.

[Bosses Fire Strikers in Furniture Trade, to BlockOrganization ROCKFORD, Ill—As a result | of low wages an intense speed up system and long hours, from 12 634 Hudson St.|to 14 daily, the furniture workers |of Rockford experienced a sponta- neous mobilization during the month of June. The shops of the Winnebago Furniture Co., the Na- tional Chair, and the Empire Fur- niture Co. went on strike. Some increases were granted by all these companies. But in the end, the bosses retaliated by firing the mil- itant workers who led the strike. The Industrial Union is organizing a campaign to reinstate these workers who helped the furniture strikers to better their conditions. The AFL burocracy here and its new ally Adolf Germer are mak- ing an attempt to thwart this move and to institute their craft unions into the furniture industry, The workers of Rockford should be on their guard against these mis- leaders and to bring the militant workers back on their jobs in the name of solidarity.

The shops which settled with | the union are the Durable Slipper Co. | and the True Size Slipper Co. Wage increases averaging 35 per cent and un‘on recognition were won by the strikers. By the terms of the agree- ment the wages of the workers will be raised by 34 and $5 above the original average. In view of the splendid condition of the strike, the bosses are spreading the malicious rumor that the Indus- trial Union does not permit the work- ers to return to their jobs after settle- ments are made. The Industrial) Union condemns this rumor as @ falsehood. The ‘Brooklyn mass meeting of shoe and slipper strikers, which | was mistakenly reported for Wed- | nesday, is definitely set to take place on Thursday, Aug. 24, at 5:30 p.m. at Arcadia Hall, 919 Halsey St. Speakers in English, Italian and Jewish will address the meet- ing. Comrade Fred Biedenkapp, General Secretary of the Shoe Workers’ Industrial Union, will re- port on the Washington Shoe Code Conference. The Paragon Slipper Co. suc- ceeded in getting a few scabs, but soon found them too inexperienced to make slippers and were forced to send them home under police guard. No other scabs have appeared at the shop since then. Sunset Lamp Strikers Reject NRA Advice to Go Back to Work NEW YORK.—Strikers at the Mutual Sunset Lamp Co. in Brook- lyn, one of the largest lamp con- cerns in the country the picket lines daily.

A delegation of strikers, follow- ing a decision taken by the work- = filed a complaint with the are out on At the New York headquarters, they were informed that, since there were so many strikes, it would take some time before the matter could be settled. When the strikers pointed out that 450 workers were involved and _pro- tested the delay, they were told to go back to work and the matter would be patched up later. The proposal was rejected By the strikers at their meeting Mon- day and the mass picket line was strengthened.

The accuracy of the title was proved again when Ida Baron, 25, formerly an operator, was buried on Monday from 847 Belmont Ave., after a fatal Caeserian oper- ation performed on her at the hos- pital. Ida Baron entered Kings County Hospital, Ward C 71, on Aug. 7. in the happy expectation of be- coming a mother. She was allowed to remain in labor for seven days, before the Caesarian operation was performed. By then she was in so weakened a condition that ‘she Life of Young failed to rally even after a blood transfusion. Her husband tried in vain to see her during the seven days of agony. It was only after the operation that he was admitted to her presence, “Her pulse is alright,” evasively muttered the attending physician on seeing Baron's distress. In answer to his questions, Baron was told by one doctor that the baby had been still-born. Another doctor’s reply was that it had lived an hour. Workers who read the news of this young woman's death, caused by criminal negligence, will add it to the list of similar deaths which the hospital authorities have been un- able to suppress in the past. They will continue to call the Tammany- controlled Kings County Hospital “a graveyard for the poor.” Harlem Workers Denounce “News” Lynch Headline “Daily News” Spreads Rape Lie in Alabama Lynch Murder NEW YORK.—A committee of Ne- gro and white workers, elected at an open air meeting at Lenox and 131st Street, visited Frank Hause, manag- ing editor of the “Daily News” rec- ently, demanding that the “News” apologize for the vicious headline which it ran on the Alabama lynch- ing of the three Negro workers two days ago. The headline printed by the “News” was as follows, “Alabama, Mob Avenges Girl in Triple Lynching.” This lying headline is not only a justification of the lynching, but also an incitation to more lynchings. The managing editor of the News would not see the workers’ committee of Negro and white workers, saying that his paper “had meant no harm.” The committee threatened boycott of the paper in Harlem if no action were taken by the editors.

State Convention President Sullivan Forgets His Pay Cutting Policy SYRACUSE, N. Y., Aug. 22—Full support for Roosevelt’s program was the keynote of the opening speech of John Sullivan, president of the New its 70th annual convention which opened here today. “The act has accomplished in a few weeks what organized labor has been trying to do in 40 years,” said Sullivan speaking of the NRA. Smashing down standards of living, breaking strikes through the national arbitration board, were things Sul- livan omitted in his unrestrained ballyhoo for the Roosevelt New Deal. Sullivan said, “I am proud that labor, as always in the past, is doing its part in the drive towards na- tional industrial recovery.” The part Sullivan played in the past was helping Hoover as well as Roosevelt slash wages of New York ‘workers by 50 per cent. Three hundred and fifty delegates are present. Speakers for the day included state government officials who work closely with the A. F. of L. leaders. | 1,500 AT SCOTTSBORO MEET CLEVELAND, Ohio—More than tended a meeting here at Woodland 1,500 Negro and white workers at-. Building Maintenance Workers Meet.

In the second the place. figures 4 i | the figure of one and half million increase are deliberately used to give a false impression, The million increase is supposed to apply to the last four months. No evidence is given to back up the statement, It is merely arrived at by some elaborate figuring with per- centages, based on the assumption that every worker who got.a job be- ginning in March still has it, an as- sumption that all the latest reports of steadily dropping business show to be false. \N the contrary, these small in- creases in jobs took place during the feverishly and artificially stimul- ated inflation boom when the Roose- velt. government tried to stimulate rvoduetion solely on the basis of fear f rising prices—not on any increase in real demand. This temporary, ar- tificial spurt is now quickly wearing out. Production is starting to drop again, and the few workers who found jobs are beginning to lose them again, The latest facts prove this. From the Southern textile mills where the ® if tries, reports have already come of thousands of workers who have al- ready lost the jobs which figure so | proudly and prominently in the re- Ports of the Department of Labor. Yesterday's papers reported the loss of over 4000 jobs in the Southern tex- tile mills. In the official reports and in the headlines, these textile work- ers are counted as having jobs. Ac- tually, these fleeting jobs have al- ready become a myth. And it is sig- nificant that the increase in textile jobs was one of the strongest parts of the report, that concealed the weak- ness in other industries, The same story is true of the other industries, which, in the report, served to bolster up the other in- dustries where the crisis of unem- ployment has shown no let-up. In the lumber industry, which showed one of the largest gains in the last month, the reports of the National Lumber Association already show that orders and shipments are drop- ping fast, with a consequent piling up of surplus goods, The lumber jobs which figure in the Department of Labor report no longer exist. In automobile and steel industries, the decline in production is gaining force every day due to lack of con- sumption. inflational rise in production took place — the rise in production was much greater than the rise in jobs, And the rise in jobs was less than the rise in wages. Wage cutting and speed-up — this was the basis on which the auto “boom” rested. And as for the million and a half figure, the actual ‘report shows that only 211,000 workers were hired in July—not the 6,000,000 promised by Roosevelt for the Fall. see r this connection it is revealing to quote the figures of the American Federation of Labor, which is part of the Roosevelt propaganda machin- ery, and which ce: iy would like to create the impression that the Roosevelt program is succeeding in improving the conditions of the work- ers. In the latest issue of its leading organ, the “Federationist” the fol- lowing pin-point increases are given as the result’of the Roosevelt make- job program. 0.5 per cent for April; 0.3 per cent for May; 1.3 per cent for June, and 0.7 per cent for July. In the face of these figures, it is well to recall that the recent “boom” in production indicated a rise of 50 per cent in some industries, ike steel. | The figures for the auto industry @ptead over the newspapers giving temporary re-employment of work-' particularly show under what con- One per cent rise in employment eport Used to Conceal the Rising Cost of Living ers was greater than in other indus-| ditions the temporary seasonal and More Rapidly Than the workers can hope for even with supposed increases in production. Such has been the “boom” in em- ployment of the Roosevelt adminis- tration—the temporary employment of @ small paré to the 17,000,000 army of jobless. And re-enrployment under conditions of slashed Itving standards and speed-up. The strikes in the shipyards against the NRA codes is living proof of these Roosevelt benefits. BH aS | tees the really significant part of the Labor Department report was completely buried in the press re- ports. And that is the admission of the Secretary of Labor Perkins that wages are not only behind employment, but that the prices of every-day necessities Is sweeping up- ward with such force as to nullify all minor advances in employment, During the last four weeks the costs of everyday necessities rose 8.16 per cent, at a rate faster than the rise in wages, potatoes per cent in price, eggs 22 per cent, and butter 10 per cent. and 50 per cent rise in production! This gives some measure of what ’ What the ballyhooed reports of the Labor department really show, Costs of Every-Day Food NecessitiesAdvancing creases; Production ‘Boom’ Cracking Fast soaring 57 | industries Scattered Wage In- and what Roosevelt and the press try to hide is that the drive against the living conditions of the workers is getting stronger every day. In ‘these figures we.can find the real purpose and the actual result of the Roosevelt program—the in- creasing of the profits of the capi- talist class under the guise of better- ing the conditions of the workers. Behind the e: rated, reports of temporary, al lally stimulated spurts in production and employ- ment, lies the real, permanent rise in the cost of living. ‘fhis goes on without any interruption, long after the “Boom” in production has begun to sink. Behind the Roosevelt ballyhoo lies the fiercest drive against the daily living standards of the working class. e reality of the present situa- tion is that the army of jobless is still about the 17 million figure of ition purt it bagi AD collsias ion sj ning to collapse. The re-hiin of workers in the war Place under condi- tions of increased speed-up and wage The point may be well taken. the time the construction struck me as well-turned and I typed it out as naturally as it occurred. But it’s a} mistake to object on the same grounds to the sentence that “Babe Ruth not | only hasn't ‘knocked Karl Marx out | of the box’ but doesn’t even ‘have him bearing down.’” ‘Those are Broun’s phrases, by the way, but grammatically and journalistically I'll stand by them, That's baseball lingo and, as such, part of the language of just those | young. workers to whom Comrade | Stern refers. If we are to attract them at all to our program of labor sports no other medium is possible. Turn to the sports pages of yester- | day’s New York “Daily News” and you'll find base-stealing referred to as kleptomania, a home run as a cir- umambulatory expedition and an um- pire’s decision as a ukase. And that same issue of the “News” sold 1,400,- 000 copies, reaching probably 3,000,- 000 readers, at least half of whom turn to the sports pages first thing in the morning. When we reach one-tenth the young workers Mr. Gallico’s pages do, we'll be doing fine. “Why didn’t Newhouse expose Hey- wood Broun as the enemy of the working class who is being paid just | to knock the Daily Worker in all its{ branches?” ‘writes Comrade Stern. | “Does Newhouse know that Broun is openly supporting the N.R.A, to- gether with Grover Whalen?” Further demands to expose Alice Hughes and the Scripp-Howard pub- lications follow. That's the sort of thing we’ve been doing all along and it hasn’t gotten us far. Indiscriminate lumping to- | gether of everything we don’t like| will never do the trick. One thing at a time. Broun had a number of things to say and we answered specifically, at the same time briefly pointing out a few political implica- tions of his attitude. There isn’t very much more you can do in a} daily paper, and that’s no apology. 8 8 AN UPPERCUTTER CUTS UP After developing the terrific right uppercut which was supposed to have knocked Sharkey colder than a polar Seamen Enthusiastic Over “Cornore” Strike NEW YORK.—Great enthusiasm attends the strikes of the Diamond Cement, and the Cornore in Boston, The seamen on the New York beach are about these strikes, and saying “that’s what we need here.” Enthusiasm and de- mands for action are higher than at any time since the thousands of seamen, led by the Waterfront Un- employed Council stormed the Sea- men’s Church Institute last sum- mer, demanding relief.
