Sept. 26— Pledged to fight for a broad work- ing. class platform of immediate de- mands, six candidates nominated by the Communist Party filed for the city elections here, Jack Bishop, longshoreman; Lo Todd, stenographer; James Tracey, railroad worker; John Diaz, agricul- tral worker; and Ed Harris, machin- ist, are the candidates for the Board of Supervisors. For the office of city treasurer the workers’ candidate is Neil Hickey, a miner. Two of the present candidates, Louise Todd and Ed Harris, polled over 10,000 and 11,000 votes respectively in the previ- ous election. Laying bare the miserable condi- tions in this city, the Communist platform urges an intense drive for the endorsement of unemployment insurance and placing every candi- date on record as to this vital neces- sity for the working class. It em- phasizes the need of the city govern- ment taking care of the immediate needs of the jobless, at the same time recording itself in support of federal unemployment insurance. The demands from the city are for cash relief to all unemployed, stopping of evictions, union wages on all relief jobs, medical and dental care for school children and aboli- tion of the sales tax. Also a number of gother immediate needs. Campaign headquarters have been established in the Workers Center in various sections of the city. They are: Mission, 3470 19th St.; Fillmore, 1223 Fillmore 8t.; North Beach, 1529 Powell St.; Downtown, 765 Howard St. The central campaign headquar- ters is at 37 Grove St. Ford to Broadcast Communist Pro- sram in Cleve.

O. Ford, on Saturday, September 30, at 5:15 p.m. “The Communist Party enters this election campaign to rally the work- ers, foreign-born and native, in a united struggle for bread,” said Ford, in a recent speech in Probulov Hall, 5258 Broadway. “It is a vote for the Communist Party that will raise havoc among the ranks of the ruling class and force concessions from them in the form of higher wages and more relief,” he forcefully maintained. “It will be a mighty blow in the defense of the homes of the small home owners, who are in danger of losing their homes to the bankers and real estate sharks.” Artists to Do Part at Red Press Bazaar NEW YORK, N.

Sell-Out Deal NORTHAMPTON, Mass., Sept. 26. ~—Five hundred workers at the Col- lege Weavers rayon plant in North- ampton have walked out for the sec- ond time in six months in protest against wages which fall far below the reputed “American standard.” The owner, Simon Leyin, who also owns mills in Michigan and Virginia, and who: is preparing to open two more in New Bedford and in Rhode Island, has for the past few months refused to abide by the compromise agreement worked out last March, At that time Joseph White, district field organizer for the UTW, sold out the workers in the plant by settling for a wage of $1.15 a hundred thou- sand picks, although the strikers were easily winning the strike and could without difficulty have ob- tained the $1.80 per hundred thou- sand which they had originally de- F. of L, tactics, pleaded for a quick and easy settlement, - The result has been that the work- ers not only failed to win any great increase in pay, but also that the promises which Levin finally made were quickly broken, There has been direct discrimination against mem- bers of the shop committee, who have been forced to wait a longer tirhe for materials than other workers in the ‘shop. Three letters from the shop committee to Levin demanding better working conditions received no answer whatsoever, despite Levin's windy promises and the NRA blue eagle which he displays as a pledge of recognition of collective bargain- ing. MacMahon, head of the UTW and “representative of labor” at textile hearings in Washington, was in Northampton about three weeks ago, and at that time admitted conditions at the plant were extremely bad. He urged the workers to do something about it, despite the fact that his organizer (White) had led the strike negotiations last March. At that time only the demands of the workers kept White from refusing the aid of Amherst and Smith students and from selling out to even further de- mands to the bosses. The workers at the plant are show- ing @ spirit of unity and fight. More than a hundred pickets are con- stantly in front of the factory, where at the prisent time about a dozen scabs are still working. A kitchen to supply the strikers with food is to be opened Monday. There has been little disturbance so far, and no arrests have yet been made. Arbitration negotiations are to be held next week, the first one at Washington and the others in North- ampton. Superintendent Marshall, of the College Weavers ,Chas. G. Woods of the NRA arbitration board, well-known strikebreaker; White of the A. F. of L. and members of the shop committee will be present. To frighten the workers as he did last Spring, Levin is again making prom- ises to move the plant to another section of the country. This cry, an old one in New England, is not stop- ping the strikers from going after their demands. AFL Hired Thugs Beat Pickets of_Indep. Housewrecking Union NEW YORK.—Following the secret deal effected by the NRA which gave exclusive authority over house wreck- ers’ jobs to the A. F. of L. House Wreckers Union with the consent of the employers’ Association, the A. F. of L, officials have started their strikbreaking campaign. Making common cause with the po- lice, they attacked two pickets of the Independent House Wreckers Union on a strike at a job at 23rd St. and 10th Ave. After clubbing the strikers, F. Tatiey and A.

Three departments then struck. As a result the bosses were forced to retract. ‘The Industrial Union with offices at 211 South Concord St., which was instrumental in winning the workers demands, issued a statement calling for further organization, “The workers went back to work today,” the statement reads, “with greater determination than ever to organize 100 per cent in Armour’s and all other plants, and fight for higher wages and improvement of conditions.

Not a single official of the UMWA | asked for the floor. And it was a very unhealthy atmosphere for them as the miners recounted the betrayals of the UMWA leaders —particularly in the 1922 strike when the coke region miners were ‘forgotten’ by John L. Lewis. When speakers representing the |miners of West Virginia reported that more than two hundred trucks had been turned back by the state {police and that more than 5,000 miners ‘were unable to come through, shouts of ‘let’s go over the line’ went up from all sections of the crowd.

Forty-five workers of the General Bronze Corporation, plant No. 2 in Corona, Long Island, struck two weeks ago, refusing to accept the starvation pay of $10 to $24 a week and the innumerable hours of over- time without pay. When the strike was called, Iron and Bronze Workers Local 48 of the A’ F. of L. refused to call out four of their members. Nor were the chasers called out.

Thirty eviction cases (which came before the company-owned Justice of the Peace) today are being tried on company grounds. The International Labor Defense is leading the fight against the evictions. It is admitted by all that the campaign in defense of the arrested strike leaders was one of the decisive factors in their unconditional release last Wednesday morning. Exiquo Navarro (“Little Class Struggle”), Mexican strike leader of the “Dawn Patrol,” made his way this morning from his home on the Gomerco Company property in an attempt to evade military police, who are dispersing the pickets in the camps, to prevent them from join- ing the others. He was followed by mounted military police again this morning, who caught up with him, and this time succeeded in throwing him to the ground. The horses’ hoofs badly injured his hand. The “Dawn Patrol” is a group of several hun- dred pickets in the camp who may be seen early at dawn every day, try- ing to make their way to where the picket line is formed. Each morning they may be seen making their way | across the hills, and are dispersed, only to succeed in getting around the militia individually by running through the hills, hiding, dodging, {and taking paths unknown to the troops. As each new arrival of the dawn patrol succeedg in reaching the picket line, the pickets cheer and sing. For the first time in the history of Gallup, the miners listened at theiz meeting to a representative of the Communist Party. Bill Dietrich, rep- resentative of the Party in District No. 19, and member of the A.
