United Front Group Calls on Roosevelt (Continued from Page One) | and terror, all in the name of the/| N.R.A.” To this withering expose of the ter- | ror directed against striking workers, | Roosevelt replied: | “Some people call me Czar, dicta- tor, so forth, but I cannot control | the local police forces.” ig | But Roosevelt overlooked the slight | fact that gunman rule in Utah was supported by the United States Army, with the army shipping truckloads of guns and ammunition to the strike- breakers. A. J. Muste elabotated the points in the document presented to Roosevelt, stating that the signers and their or- ganizations, seeing the growing men- ace of the attacks on the workers and the rights of the workers, noticed that the employers were immune from penalties, “With all emphasis at our com- mand, Mr. President,” Dunne said, : “we wish to impress upon you the seriousness of the situation today for Negro and white workers fight- ing for the right to organize, strike and picket in the face of the most widespread use of private and po-. lice fotces, state and local police | and troops against them. We pro- test against these atrocities.” Exposing the lynch gang murder and terror in the South against Ne- gro workers, Dunne said: “Never since reconstruction days | has there been such widespread mur- derous attacks on Negroes in the| South. Georgia is trying to revive the insurrection law to crush white and Negro workers in their attempts to organize. “Angelo Herndon, a Negro worker, was sent to prison for 18 years for trying to educate and organize his people. Herndon is a Communist, it is true, but that is not yet a crime in America.” Roosevelt interjected, “You bet it’s not.” But by this gesturé he did not cover up the fact that workers who belong to the Communist Party are having their citizenship rights re- voked, and that the Federal gov-| ernment, through all of its agents, | as well as through NRA concilia-| tors, is helping the bosses fight against Communists because they lead strikes and are organizing the workers. In Utah strikers are being charged with criminal syndicalism. At the same time, he conveniently forgot the action of his Secretary of Labor Perkins deporting work- ers for the crime of being mem- bers of the Communist Party. “In the new situation of terror in the South,” Dunne said, “We no longer see community lynchings because of the decrease of race: prejudice among the workers, but the terror is carried on by small the protec- , saying ident said he agreed with this ‘estimate, Dunne immediately challenged him, “In such a situation, with the great powers given you, you should make a public statement on this of the But there was no re challenge. Muste then spoke of the new menace of injunctions under the NRA and the proposal of the docu- ment presented to the President regarding the rights of minorities. “A new American labor movement is forming as a result of the working class maturihg under the htavy blows of the crisis,” Dunne pointed out. “At. present, this labor move- ment is neither the Trade Union Unity League nor the American Federation of Labor. But inevit- ably there is in formation organi- zations of the right, center and of the left. “The new labor movement,” Dunne added,’ “is forming from below with a new leadership de- veloping from the ranks.” Dunne pointed out that the document handed to the president sets forth that movement should proceed without the interference or coercion of the government, with the workers themselves to make the choice. Roosevelt did not commit him- ply to this “G ive my regards Thomas,” Rooseevit said to Dunne ust as the delegation was leaving. “Norman Thomas is not a par-)1 ‘cular friend of mine,” Dunne re- Fy f lied, to the laughter of a number ry of Communist Party Tonight By del Thru the Tam- many Keyhole. “Prial will sup- port O’Brien” —News Iter City Events | Antonoff to Speak Here. | NEW YORK.—Todor (Tom) An-| tonoff, active for years organizing | the auto workers of Detroit, will | speak Sept. 25 at a meeting in New York before leaving America at the order of the “liberal” Frances Perk- ins, Secretary of Labor in the “New Deal” government.

C., Sept. 21. —Boot and shoe manufacturers today submitted a revised draft of | the code for the shoe industry but) have retained the “merit” clause | against which the representatives | of the Shoe and Leather Workers’ Union put up °a vigorous battle battle at recent code hearings. The “merit” clause establishes the open shop and will prevent union organization since it permits em- ployers to hire and fire workers on the basis of efficiency without re- gard to union affiliation. At the shoe code heerings last | week, Fred Biednkapp, general secretary of the union, demanded that the. following conditions be written into the code: a 30 hour week, $40 for skilled labor and $18 for ‘earners, the elimination of | piece work, the right to strike| and picket, the abolition of in- junctions and of arbitration, and equal pay for equal work for wo- men workers.

The code will mean iurther wage cuts and speed up and actually legalizes company unionism. e BMT. and IR.T. groups, which are organizing the transit workers to defeat the bosses’ code, have issued a code of demands which has created considerable favorable | sentiment among the workers.

Trained in years of whalening, the Mayor’s committee negotiated its duties without a flaw. “Glory,” “honor,” “per- severance” studded their well-chosew remarks. Two brassy bands from George Washing-® ton High School and the Pull-| man Porters’ Association ren-| dered gleeful and sanguine selections. | “Hail, Hail,” they blew, “the Gang’s!

George is the gent who only last week hauled off and flattened Pitcher Pat Malone of the Cubs with what press releases describe as a “left to the epiglottis.” Now then. The melancholy out- fielder Davis began to retaliate. He assumed a belligerent stance and led with a teaser of a left, seeking Fallen Archie’s epiglottis. At this point the thundering herd bore down and dis- abused the unfortunate patrolman. “Ain’t that a shame?” he is quoted to have said at headquarters, “Who would have think it? You can tell Mr. Davis I didn’t mean it. I'm a family man myself and some of my very best friends are outfielders, Tehk, tchk. I'm sure this will affeci my career adversely.
