PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Jan. 2.—The strike of the Philadelphia milk drivers, led by the A. F. of L. offi- sials, has reached a critical stage. After a week of militant picketing, im which 1,600 out of 3,000 drivers were out, some were induced to go back as a result of threats. The companies threaten to fire the men, and the N. R. A. Labor Board flaunts @ “decision” for arbitration to settle | the strike after the men are back at work, Lerge organizations of consumers, ‘with Communists in the lead, have been picketing with the drivers for several days. With few exceptions the wagons of » one of the four biggest. Philadelphia dealers, are rolling. Many of Abbotts men are back at! work. The Philadelphia Rapid Tran- | wit taxi drivers are still on strike. Yesterday morning three scabs on milk routes were beaten up. Four taxicabs were found burned also! early yesterday, and the police are trying to frame strikers on this O'Brien, local organizer for the A. ¥. of L. Teamsters’ Brotherhood, helps to spread rumors and to dis- beg the men from continuing strike. ; Fight U. 8. Move to Disbar Attorney for Defending Negr Defense Files Motion as Gov. Ritchie Joins Attack on Ades BALTIMORE, Md., Jan. 2.—A mo- tion to throw out the disbarment charges against Bernard Ades, Inter- national Labor Defense attorney, pre- ferred by Judge William C. Coleman, of the federal court, was filed with the court. The motion was accompanied by a formal denial of the charges of “professional misconduct, malpractice, fraud, and conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice,” which } Judge Coleman filed. | The charges were based solely on the fact that Ades, as an I.L.D. law- yer, fought for the rights of Negroes Adopt Local Programs Agai _ Demand C.W.A.

In connection with the C.W.A. jobs, the Painters, Paper Hangers and Decorators Union demanded the same wages as for the members of the A. F. of L. and sent delega- #ions to the C.W.A. headquarters. ‘The rank and file opposition inside the locals of the painters’ union of the A. F. of L. demanded rein- stateniqni. " This struggle reached a point where the union burocrats were forced to yield to the mass pressure of the rank and file members in the Painters’ Union, and above all, because of the militant activity on ‘the part of the expelled and sus- ended members of the Painters Inion of the A. F. of L,., after they had organized themselves into an organization and recruited near- ly 1,000 members. Today an agreement has been veached between the representa- tives of the District Council No. 14 of the Brotherhood of Painters, per Hangers and Decorators of ‘America, affiliated to the A. F. of L. and the District Council of. the Painters, Paper Hangers and Deco- rators Union of expelled members from the A. F. of L. The agreement provides that cf, member of the newly organ- union is to be readmitted to the A. F. of L. union without any discrimination, on the basis of pay~ ing $10 initiation fee, instead of 00, which is the regular initiation » to the union. That the $10 initiation fee be paid afier the member gets a job and receives his first pay. That the dues shall be paid only after the third pay re- ceived by the worker. That is, no dues to be paid until the time the worker receives a job. That mem- bers be admitted to every and all locals of their own choosing of the painters union in Chicago. That 30 be allowed for the time to fill out applications for the admission of the expelled, suspended and un- i painters. That every member of oe anlen of the io pelled, suspended and unorganize painters is eligible to the same pa; on the job, even before he is ad- mitted into the A. F. of L. union, and finally, they reached an agree- ment which provides that the com- \ded members of the union shall Raaiva to protect the interests of the expelled and suspended mem- bers until the time t all mem- bers shall become members of the ‘Brotherhood of Painters, Paper Hangers and Decorators of Ay.er- iea, District Council No. 14. Outstanding Victory This is one of the outstanding victories of the rank and file op- ion movement inside the build- ing trades in the city of Chicago. It shows very definitely what mass tion of the workers can do. _of the workers who, after “they have been expelled or sus- d from the union of the A. . of L., did not join the union 01 ed by were forced to pay $100 initiation fee so that a would be able to Lago their jobs on the C.W.A. ‘Bat those who are members of the of the expelled members are » their interests have been ‘protected on the job and in the union of the A.

The five attorneys are Charles H. Houston, vice-dean of Howard Uni- versity; James G. Tyson, L. A. Ran- som, Edward P. Lovett, and Thurgood Marshall. | At the same time, Governor Albert C. Ritchie has published in pamphlet |form the “Report and Recommenda- tions of the Commission appointed to consider changes in the Adminis- tration of Criminal Justice.” This report contains recommenda- tion for a bill designed to disbar Ades, because of his militant defense of Euel Lee. The press here has pointed out that no other lawyer could be intended in the recom- mendation, which is that “wherever the courts have reason to believe that an attorney has injected himself into a criminal case that has attracted public attention, either on ‘his own initiative or as the representative of some organization, an investigation be promptly instituted by the court.” The bill would also provide for dis- barment of the attorney and appoint- |ment of counsel by the court for the defendant.

The level of city relief here is in- dicated in a commissary order given to two unemployed workers, E. San- ders and John Morris, for one week. The order was for five loaves of bread, one pound of onions, three-quarter pound of bacon, one can of tomatoes, one can of milk, one pound of rice, one-half pound of coffee, two and one- half pounds of dried beans, one- half peck of potatoes, and one pound of sugar. In the local markets, this food or- der for one week, costs 94 cents, giv- ing the men six and five-seventh cents @ day per person, When the men protested to the investigator, Miss White, that the order was insufficient, she replied, “That's all you are to get.’ Lynn CWA Workers Get $8 Weekly Pay Unemployed Councils Call Conference LYNN, Mass., Jan. 2.—The real meaning of the C. W. A. promise to pay a minimum wage of $15 is now apparent to the workers of this city. The recent blizzard and sub-zero weather forced over 1,700 C. W. A. workers to stop work without any chaneg of making up their time. The pay checks now coming thru are for an average of $8, and relief is being denied to all the C. W. A. workers because they have a job. The Unemployed Council of Lynn has issued calls to all unions and fraternal organizations in this city for a conference against Unemploy- ment on Friday, Jan. 5, at Lee Hall. Workers on C. W. A. jobs are being notified to elect their delegates to this conference also. Delegates will be elected to the National Conven- tion in Washington, called by the National Committee of Unemployed Councils. In this city, one of the largest shoe centers in the country, over 75 pe® cent of the shoe workers are out of work at present, Nearly 11,000 ‘e earners are unem- ployed. Although about a thousand who were on the relief list were given C. W. A. jobs, the relief lists inereased by several hundred names in the past two months. The National Shoe Union is as- sessing all working members five cents a week in order to open a soup kitchen for the unemployed shoe workers. They have made no but are taking from the pitiably low earnings of the workers. « CLEVELAND PARTY OFFICE MOVES The office of the Cleveland Dis- trict_of the Communist Party and the Young Communist League has Puerto faces|The meeting is calied by the Puerto| been moved to 1514 Prospect Ave., |-imperialist League ‘ Rooms 306 “nd 307. elected by organizations represented. | national Unemployed Convention in affairs, arrange collections, etc. 80 E. llth St., New York City. nst Cuts ED G.

This spy system comes as a result of the mis- erable conditions imposed upon the C. W. A. workers and their attempts to organize to better them, Thous- ands of C.W.A. workers, although working for a period of two or three weeks and sometimes longer, have not received any wages. This, coupled with many other bad working condi- tions, such as going to work on days when the weather would not permit and returning home having to make up the day later on, led the workers to begin revolting against these con- | ditions and build up unions to pro- tect themselves. The article in de- | scribing the spy system, quotes as_ s follows: “The superintendent of an air- port climbs into an airplane and if he sees indications that one of the C.W.A. workers is stalling or if two or three are gathered together, inviting a suspicion that a Com- munist agitator is making the rounds, he promptly reports by radio-phone, and then steps are taken to rectify this situation.” | Despite the heavy spy system being | our civilization such as it did in the |St#nding feature of the Washington developed, as shown by the above, the |last war,” the Rey. Owen L. Walker meeting as reported by Miss ong C©.W.A. workrs are continuing to organize. The workers are uniting around the following program: Immediate and regular weekly pay days. Union wages on all jobs with a minimum of 83c an hour, Time and transportation to be paid from city limits, Full pay for time lost due to sick- ness and bad weather. Shelter and fire to be provided on all jobs in the open. Men to be protected against ac- cident and injury as provided by iiimois Workmen’s Compensation Act. Relief to be issued in case of part time work and immediately at end | of job. Recognition of Job Committees, Agaimst discrimination arainst Negro, Mexican or other workers.

Already two loc: of a union of the C.W.A. work: have been set up under the name of Civil and Public Works Labor Union, and others are in process of being built. Push Anti-Lynching FightinYoungstown - YOUNGSTOWN, Jan. 2.—Nine- ty-four delegates representing 42 organizations with a total member- ship of 6,067, registered a vigorous protest against the growing wave of lynch terror and the lynch verdict of the Decatur Court which sen- tenced Heywood Patterson and Clarence Norris to die on Feb. 2, at the Youngstown Anti-Lynch Conference held in the Mahoning Avenue A. M. E. Z. church. Rey. W. O. Harper of the Third Baptist Church acted as chairman of the conference. Besides regis- tering its alarm and intense indigna- tion over the growing wave of lynchings, the conference adopted an immediate program of action for the struggle against lynchings, for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys, and against all local cases of Jim- Crowism, segregation and discrim- ination against the Negro people. The conference further decided to constitute a permanent delegate body as the local committee of the League of Struggle for Negro Rights, in order to put its work on a more permanent basis and to con- nect up its activity with the nation- wide struggles against lynchings and discrimination. One of the immediate actions de- cided upon by the conference is the holding of a huge protest meeting Against lynchings on Jan. 5, 7:30 .m., in the Central Auditorium, 25 Boardman St. A_nationally- known speaker from New York is| food being obtained for this meeting and @ special program Mooney Urges Mass Support for Appea Tom Mooney has issued a stirring appeal for support for the attempt 1934 by his attorneys, Frank P.

After telling of the planned court action, Mooney says: “Immediately a tremendous nationwide wave of agitation should be started. Mass meetings, demonstrations and parades should be held. Publicity from every source should be obtained. Commit- tees should be appointed to call in person, or letters and telegrams should be ssnt the President and At- torney-General of the United States and to every Senator and Congress- man, urging their cooperation in this fight for justice for an innocent man.” Protest Demonstra- tions Thurs., in N.
