In part, the resolution states: | “The government of the United States in spite of peaceful professions is more aggressively than ever fol- lowing policies whose only logical re- sult is war. The whole program of | the Roosevelt administration is per- meated by preparedness for war, ex- | pressed in the extraordinary military | and naval budget, mobilization of in- dustry and man-power, the naval | concentration in the Pacific Ocean, | the intervention in Cuba, the con- | tinued maintenance -of armed forces in China, the loans of Chiang Kai- shek; the currency and tarriff wars ~—all of which give the lie to the eful declarations of our own rnment. * 4 Only in the Soviet Union has this basic cause of war been removed. The consistent peace policy of the |Soviet Union, around which the janti-war struggles throughout the world must be rallied, was made pos- |sible by the revolution which over- threw the capitalist. system, reorgan- ized economy on the basis of soctal- ism, and established a powerful gov- jermment of workers and peasants, One cannot fight seriously against the war danger unless one fights against all attempts to weaken or destroy the Soviet Union. “The Congress declares that the basic force in the imperialist coun- tries for struggle against the war danger is the working class, organ- izing around it in close alliance all of the exploited sections of the popu- Jation, working farmers, intellectuals, the, oppressed Negro people and all toiling masses. This anti-war move- ment allies itself with the masses | pledge from them to fight unflinch- -- ures. Romain Rollahd says of fas-| |cism that ‘fascism has 20 different | |masks, Sometimes it takes the mask jot democracy, sometimes the mask | of a revolutionary movement, but al- | ways behind the mask lurks the face ‘of demagogy.’ “But there is a great factor on the horizon, a new and alive fac- tor which is taking part in this fight against this destroying evil and that is the Soviet Union, “As I came from the boat today I was tremendously moved by the | greeting which I received from that splendid group of ex-service men, During the World War these men came to realize the fallacy of fight- ing against German imperialism, be- cause the imperialism of all coun- tries was equally involved and at fault. | “There is one way of fighting war. |And this way must be the way of |our Congress. In place of a League of Nations, in place of a disarma- ment conference, we must create a League of Peoples and this League ™must be created by the masses from underneath. We must carry on our fight with a united front.” With the last words of Henri Barbusse came a tremendous burst of cheering and acknowledgement, As he turned and walked from the plat- form to journey across to speak to the second group of delegates in ecca Temple, the voice of his com- rades and friends carried him on his way.

The militant pickets rebuffed the attack of the gang, which was lead by Johny Kaynemes and by Matskin, well known henchmen of the dis- job, that they will be back on day with a stronger force One of the politicians from 9005 came up to the Bronx local the Alteration Painters Union threatened the organizer, that, if pickets from the Sindin job will be taken off, he will order his thugs to beat up all Alteration painters union members, The Sindin shop was signed with the Alteration Painters Union before the general strike started, but joined with others when the strike Council No. 9 and settled with them.

NeedleTrades Union Executive Board in Two Day Session NEW YORK.—The two-day ses- sions of the General Bxecutive Board of the Needle Trades Workers’ In- dustrial Union held last week and attended by organizers and active members from néedle trades centers in all parts of the country, centered its discussion around the problems of building the union and of preserving the gains made in recent months, Ben Gold, the union’s general sec- retary, presented the main report, on the situation in the needle trades, which was followed by supplementary reports of other leading comrades in the union and by @ lengthy discus- sion. In his report Gold discussed the Great dress strike and the struggles in the cloak trade in great detail, He pointed out that the fighting spirit of the workers and the influence of the industrial union and the. left wing opposition in the International suceéeded in forcing better conditions for the workers. Even before the code for the fur trade was accepted, thanks to the struggle of the furriers it was possible to win the 35-hour week, Gold said. On the other hand where the union does not exercise so strong an influence, conditions re- main practically the same. New sections of the industrial union have been fofmed in Los Angeles, Gloversville, N. Y., in New Jersey and in New York, he reported. At the second session, many speak- ers participated in the discussion, in- @luding Fanny Golis of the dress de- ent in New York, Feingold of ton, Majeti of Philadelphia, Rae. Masler of Connecticut, Rose Wortis, Boruchowits, Stallman of the bath- robe workers, and een A report by Charles Nemerov, aé- sistant secretary of the union, showed that $42,000 had been collected for the furriers’ unemployment insurance fund, $26,000 having been paid ‘out to 1,349 unemployed, many of whom have been jobless for the past three years. ‘The Executive Board went on rec- ord pledging support to the Commu- nist Party election campaign. It en- dorsed the anti-war congress and urged all its members to attend the open sessions of the Congress and to elect delegates from their shops. It sent a message of solidarity to the Shoe Workers’ Industrial Union and called on its members to assist the industrial union in its heroic struggles against injunctions.

They, don’t have to know you. You're a soccer player, a brother. I can thinkk of no other game that bas developed this social habit. Saturdays and Sundays you miss this sociability at Crotona Park, There is one regulation field only but many balls and swarms of play- ers, They swamp the two goals and you're lucky to get a shot every ten minutes. There is much ill feeling and fights are frequent, The Public School Athletic League plays Saturdays and these boys are the second, even third generation whose fathers and grandfathers layed in Poland or Portugal. The Held is cleared for these high school teams and the unattached retire into the stands. The games are long- range affairs of a peculiar American slam-bang style. Last Saturday I saw Stuyvesant play and they’d probably stand up with some of the European secondary schools. Half the spectators in those stands would have played but for lack of a field. As it is they’re forced to spend their only off-days in this vicarious enjoyment. Some of them are finer players than the high school boys and it isn’t easy. Wistful, nostalgic hus- bands with perambulators stud the outskirts, a distance off to protect ytheit charges.

After that they'll play on Sundays at Crotona, Jefferson or wherever the municipal groundkeeper is amenable to reasoning and three bucks, ‘There are no paid referees in this Labor Sports Union League and no mone’ fines, Referees volunteer, and the league is run by an elected répreséntative leadership who operate by other leagues, They are planning to introduce accident insurance and free medical attention for injured Players. A great part of their suc- fields and dressing rooms, but the city administration seems dead ret it. Yet there is room for more posts in Van Cortlandt Park, Bronx Park and innumerable private lots. If the League fights hard enough they'll get the municipal fields trom O’Brien or McKee, but private ones they'll get only from Bob Minor.
