L N ew York City Vote Totals COMMUNIST VOTE FOR MAYOR | 1920 | Silk Workers Call Meet In Allentown to Enforce Gains A.F. of L. Head Orders! Strike Ended on NRA “Settlement” ALLENTOWN, Pa., Nov. 9.— The Allentown Silk Workers Union and the Ribbon Workers Association, both affliated to the United National Strike Committee, have called a con- ference for Saturday, at 2 p.m. at 398 North Second Street, of all shop committees, regardless of union afi- lation, to enforce the concessions won in the silk strike, now ended. ‘This conference will have as its main purpose to take steps to enforce the $25 minimum wage and the promise of no discrimination made by the NRA. as a “settlement,” but which the manufacturers have no intention of conceding. The strike was ended on Monday, after Sam Mackri, president of local 10 of the American Federation of Silk Workers (U.T.W.), had issued a state~ ment in the morning papers on his own authority, and without warning, ordering the silk strikers back to work. Mackri stated that the govern- ment ordered the strike to end and that in order to show the government “their good faith,” the men should return to work. This order was given without signing any agreement, and without any guarantee that the pro- mises of Senator Wagner and the N.R.A. Labor Board, would be kept. The Allentown Silk Workers Union immediately issued & statement to the workers, attacking Mackri’s be- trayal. The militant union pointed out that Mackri was dividing and confusing the workers by ordering them back, and was betraying the Paterson and Easton strikers. They proposed calling a conference of the Paterson and Easton strikers before making any decision. They pointed out that the N.R.A. decision of $25 was not taken seriously by the N.R.A. or the silk manufacturers, and that the N.R.A. put it forward as a move to get the strikers back to work with- out an agreement and under the old conditions. The strikers went back on Monday to prevent a division of the workers’ ranks. The Allentown Silk Workers Union and the Ribbon Workers’ Association, with a combined membership of 3,000, both affiliated to the United National Strike Committee, have kept their forces intact. They came out of the strike with a larger membership, secured agreements in several mills which included recognition of the | union or the shop committee and gained some concessions.

Their chief defense tactics were to introduce nu- merous legal quibbles and to ask for postponement.

A new international com- mission of lawyers is being organized in an effort to do everything possible to save the four defendants. In its appeal for a nation-wide mass protest action, the Committee has urged that the various organiza- tions involve their entire rank and file in this movement for the liber- ation of Dimitroff, Torgler, Popoff and Taneff. All organizations are urged to call membership meetings in which they discuss further meth- ods of protest.

An attorney as- signed to the case by the Interna- tional Labor Defense told the com- mittee they could continue their en- tertainments as before because the dances were held only for members and their friends. Hearing on the charges growing out of the first raid was postponed a week ago for @ special session. The workers arréest2d in the second raid will come up for hearing this morning at the court at 43rd St. and Fourth Ave., Brooklyn, At a protest mass meeting last night, hundreds of workers expressed their determination to be in court this morning to defend the Scan- dinavian Workers’ Center and the four arrested workers, who are held on $1,000 bond.

The Allentown Silk Workers’ Union and the Ribbon Workers’ Association point out that the leaders of the U.T. ‘W. in Allentown, headed by Mackri, haye broken the ranks of the strik- ers by placing faith in the govern- ment and the N.R.A. and expecting them to fight the bosses. This be- trayal is all the more glaring, since at a meeting Sunday called by the A. F, of L. the strikers voted un- animously to remain on strike and send committees to see the bosses and determine their intentions. Mackri in his statement to the work- ers Monday morning orderi:; them back to work, said that he would rely n the “good faith” of the manufac- urers that they would not discri- |anti-fascist, framed in connection | minate and would pay the $25 mini- mum, But the manufacturers of Allentown, through their spokesman, | John McGilney, had already stated, and repeated Sunday and Monday, that they would not pay the pro- | posed scale. Discrimination is now being car- ried out. In the Allentown Silk mill company 80 active strikers were not re-hired and are being kept out of the mill. The strike in the Easton section of 3,000 workers under the leadership of the National Textile Workers Un- ion is still o: Rally Needle Union Members to Resist U. 8. Indictment (Continued from Page 1) immediate steps in the fight to resist the latest attacks. ‘The federal indictment served yes- terday on the Industrial Union is the result of an investigation which the Union forced upon the government following its exposure of the fiendish acts of hired gangsters and guerillas against union members as a result of which two organizers were mur- | dered and many union members were | maimed. The Union listed a series of dastardly crimes, including bomb- ings, acid throwing, and guerilla at- tacks instirated by th2 fur bosses and the A. F. of L, in the attempt to smash the Industrial Union, which was battling for decent conditions for the workers. Although the Union demanded a federal inviccetion and agtion against the bosses and the A. ¥. of L. officiaidom last August, no steps were taken until the federal indict- ments were issued last week. These included indictments on four counts against the fur bossés’ associations, specifically naming the gangsters tees he a ee aa ploy. ‘The trial in which the A.

Talk about kicking! Believe it or not, Millard (Dixie) Howell of Alabama drove 2 90 yard punt in a game against Tennessee. It seems like & superhuman feat to us, but there were upward of fifteen thou- sand spectators looking on while he did it and the thing's on the up-and- up alright. On top of this Don Kel- lert of Pennsylvania went him nearly as well with an 86 yard boot against Nevy. Put these down in the little ted book. They both break all pre- vious records. ‘The boys with other specialties haven't been what you'd call shrink- ing violets either. Tiny Bluefield College, whom nobody ever heard of before, is up there with one of the few unbeaten teams and to date has rolled up a grand total of 235 points, no fewer than a hundred of which have been made by one Mr. Pete Young, whom we likewise never heard of before. In major company, Winter of Davis-Elkins has crossed the goal line 11 times—and the sea- son is only half over. Long runs have been another fea- ture of the season. In a game against Georgia Tech, Bucky Bryan of Tulane tucked the pigskin under his arm while behind his own goal line and romped no less than 101 yards to a touchdown. Floyd (Preacher) Roberts, likewise of Tulane, scored on a 75 yard run against Colgate last Saturday. It not only won the game for his team but was the first time since 1931 that Andy Kerr's boys bit the dust and the only oc- casion in a similar period that their goal line has been crossed. To make the afternoon complete this same Mr. Roberts stopped a Colgate man on the 2 yard line in the last play of the game, thus preventing a tie. On the same day, Millard Howell of Alabama gained 156 yards on run- ning plays and an additional 58 on pesses against the University of <entucky; Jim Carter of Purdue made a 90 yard run against Carnegie, and our old friend Kellert of punting fame made a 50 yard run, scored a touchdown, a point after touchdown and a field goal—carrying his team to victory over Lafayette all by his lonesome self. Don't forget to drink to Mike Sebastian of Pitt. We thought we'd seen come fancy passing in our day, but it’s never been anything like the 55 yard heave which this master completed against Navy a few weeks ago. We add this just in case you like puzzles.

Season By JACK HARDY ward Newhouse | MMVHE wearers of the moleskin have been crashing through high and mighty all season. | Strength has been so evenly divided and the decisions so close, but the boys who do the yeoman work down there between the goal posts have been ringing the bell consistently. all-time records are being shot at and some of them are already passed. So it’s hats off to the jerseyed gladiators of the turf. It’s been a long time since they f It’s been years since the All of the And laugh this off. In tying South- ern California, Oregon * went through the 60 minutes of grueling play with exactly eleven men—not a substitu- tion all game. If you've heard any- thing about the bone crushing poten- tialities of Howard Jones’ Trojans, you'll understand what kind of an Iron Eleven these boys from the Northwest must really be. S so often happens, most of the headlines are being copped by the backfleld boys who do the running, throwing and kicking, with nary a word for the forward line which does the mopping up, opens the holes and performs the dirty work in general. Yet every observer is agreed that it was the St. Mary line which alone made it possible for the Galloping Gaels from the Moraga Valley to give Fordham its first shellacking of the season over at the Polo Grounds the other day. We have a sneaking suspicion, too, that it’s the line which has made Michigan the strongest team in the country. There's a centre on that outfit by the name of Bernard whe does everything and does it well. His pass is as accurate as a die. On the defense he plays a roving game and stops anything in sight. He has an offensive charge like nobody's business and when the other fellows are throwing passes he knocks down more of them than any secondary on the club. We hereby place him in nomination for All-American. (OTRE DAME has dropped thres games and Hunk Anderson is through. They haven't announced the fact as yet. Hunk is one of the best coaches in the business. It’s not generally known, but Rockne was ill for several years prior to his death and this same Anderson, then his chief assistant, carried the load him- self. It was he who turned out some of the most famous of the teams for which Rock has borne the credit. This year much of the material out at South Bend has been heart- breaking. The three men in the center of the line are among the world’s worst and to cap the climax there’s not a dependable quarterback on the squad. ‘The men can’t draw blood out of a stone. In spite of heroic efforts his team has lost three games. The attendance at the Pittsburg game was only 20,000—about half of usual —and the Downtown Coaches’ As~ sociation, as the newspaper boys call ers, merchants and hotel owners, has gone on a rampage. They've put the screws on the University—so it’s bye- bye for Hunk. The dope ts that Nobel E. Kizer, now coaching at Pur- due, will take up the reins next fall and that Anderson will bid au revoir to the collegiates and join the Chi~ cago Club of honest-to-goodness pro~ fessionals.
