A Patriot Changes His Mind Pickets Arrested By SENDER GARLIN. NEW YORK.—Despite the screeching Blue Eagle promi- nently displayed in the huge windows of the Eleo Shoe Com- pany, 78 Stone Ave., Brooklyn, and the arrest by Grover gineers, U. S. Army. Whalen, New York NRA chief, of 6 of the pickets, strikers con- tinue their unceasing march before the four-story building. Machines have been silent here for the -past 17 days, when all the 160 yvorkers quit work. The strikers de- /mand recognition of the Shoe and and a 30 per cent average wage in- crease in all the departments of the factory. A Lone Cop As the pickets walk in pairs be- fore the factory, a lone cop leans against the building, first resting on one flat foot, then on the other. Inside the plant all is silent. Two blocks away, in the Brooklyn Palace at 130 Rockaway Ave., the rank and file ¢trike committee is meeting. The “Daily” reporter’s cre- dentials from the union headquar- ters having been formally read aloud, the strike committee adjourns and invites him to question the workers about the strike ‘in the Eleo shop. Eighteen are on the strike com- mittee—elected by the rank and file when the strike broke out, and each morning at 11 o’clock they meet to discuss the next steps in the fight. “Yve been in the trade for 35 years, as a cutter,” a gray-haired shoe worker volunteers, “I’m an Elk, a Democrat and a Spanish- American war veteran. I worked for 20 years in Lynn, Mass., and have boon through some big strikes there —oree in 1904, under the Knights of Laboz, and later in 1916.” Just before the war, this man ed $70 for a 44-hour week. nt “I make $8, $5, and nothing. So7bs—Relat'ves Two stockfitters, two girls in the pazkine room and a couple of rela- tives of the bosses constitute the en- tire c¢ in the Eleo plant, the strikers declare.

Y m prevails in 2 ‘ory as in the scores of shoe plants now dead shut by 3 of strikes throucthout Greater New York. “Although the Eleos werkers make an expensive | brand of young girls’ shoes, our wages are among the lowest,” one of the strik lared. The Eleo shoe sells for. $6.50 and $7.30, bui the wage rate is the same and often lower than that prevail- ine in. facto: manufacturing a $3.50 shoe. The “evening shoes” and | the “Fashionese” style sell for $16- $18-$20, girl strikers told the Daily Worker reporter. “We couldn’t even buy the ‘cheap- er’ pair,” they said. “If we wanted to we'd have to work a week and somtimes two weeks to get it.” What's more, they explained, they are expected to pay $1 more than the rate paid by Saks, Lord and A firms on the Elco buyer list. | Toiling at a feverish speed, the workers in the fitting department | have earned $13-82), but other de~ | partments earned far less—some getting as low as $4-$5. the life out of the cutters,” one worker said, commenting on the successive wage sleshes during the past three years. “Every time there’s a new style, we get a new cut. And in most cases the opera- tion is just as difficult as that for the previous style. Tho Slave Market The method of hiring at the Eleo plant suggested a combination of police “line-up” and the third striker described it with ness? “First vou sit for hours in the office until a couple of foremen take jt into their heads to come and look you over, They look at you as if they were trying to identify you for a crime.

When we’re ‘lucky’ we get ‘a little work this way, on a pair of | singles or specials, and at the end of the week earn a dollar or two.” Important to bear in mind ‘+ ihe fact that the average shoe worker’s “season” seldom amounts to more than 10-11 weeks during the en- tire year. During the rest of the time his boss is, of course, totally | tnconcerned as to whether Gr not the worker and his family starves to death. “Whalen? He’s trying to give us a dirty deal.” i This from an Italian worker—a member of the Strike Committee of 118, who proudly told the Worker reporter that he was a reg- istered Democrat and a member of the Italian-American Democratic Club of the 19th Assembly District, Brooklyn. And, mind you, Whalen is a Democrat and this striker is a |Democrat. But the crucial differ- ence is that the worker is a leader in a strike being conducted by the revolutionary Shoe and Leather , Workers Industrial Union. | A Red? What of It? | Does he know that his union is affiliated with the Trade Union Unity League, and that William Z. ‘oster, a Communist, is secretary ,of the TUUL—another striker was i asked. | “Right now that isn’t the main thing,” he answered. “Some of us {here are Democrats, some Republi- ;cans and what-not, but we’re all set ;on one point: getting a better living | for ourselves and our families, and | we know we can’t do it without the | And by union these strikers don’t ;mean the Boot and Shoe Workers | Union of the American Federation | of Labor, either. “They’re all united | on that,” a Communist member of the Strike Committee said to me as the workers nodded in agreement, “They've all had previous dealings with those fellows,” he said signifi- cantly. The chairman of the Lasting De- | partment is also active on the Strike Committee. He’s a stocky, energetic Italian-American. “Listen, young fellow,” he shouts, | “I was in the war, member of the 2ith Division. I sacrificed my edu- cation for the sake of Amer.canisin and Democracy, and now when I fight for the right to get more bread and bu‘ter I'm called a Communist. —and damn it, I resent it!” Toward the biand words of their bosses—Isadore Lipson and Henry Lifshitz—the workers have an at- titude of extreme skepticism, to say the least. “About a year and a half ago the fitters and lasters went out on | strike. After being out about three eos, we fell for a ‘gentleman’s agreement’ with the boss by which he recognized the general chairmen and a shop committee; he also | agreed that there would be no hir- ing or firing without the workers’ ‘committee, and that no further wage cuts would be put through. __ “Well, at the end of two weeks, the boss approached each worker in the lasters’ department to sign a yellow dog agreement, and then set out to fire the most militant leaders among the fitters. When we threat- ened to“strike, however, the boss backed down.” “That’s Why!” + These experiences as well as ; others, say the workers, have guided them in their decision to reject the bosses’ offers, the first one meeting all the strikers’ terms except recog- nition of the union, and the second for a 10 per cent raise for the cut- ters and fitters only, but with no recognition of the union, “That’s why,” said the member in good standing of the Italian-Amer- ican Democratic Club of the 19th Assembly District, Brooklyn, “that’s why we're going to stay out until we win all our demands—and espe- cially recognition of the Shoe and ; Leather Workers Industrial Union.” TORGSIN | orders enable your relatives in Soviet Russia to purchase all sorts of domestic or imported articles righ at low prices. ihe For orders on Torgsin apply to es your local bank, companies Rin listed below or their author- . a agents ze “ ‘Bank, N.
