Bethlehem teel Union Acts to Stop Lay-Offs of Shearmen at | Steel Corp. A. F. of L. as New Threatens Big Lay: BALTIMORE, Md., Jan. 19.—Joint | ction of members of the Amalga-| ated Association of Steel and Tin orkers (A. F. of L.) and the Steel nd Metal Workers Industrial Union © prevent lay-offs of shearmen as a esult of the introduction of new utomatic machinery in the tin mill + the Bethlehem Steel Corporation is being urged here at the initiative of the Industrial Union. Efforts to speed-up the workers | \ Here have increased in the past few| ‘onths. The new automatic shearing wdachinery brought into the tin mill ast week will require one man where ix were formerly employed. The automatic shearing will affect the openefs as well. Thefe is great un- easiness among the workers in the tin mill, Whea the Sicel and Metal Workers Industrial Union, during a well-at- ded meeting last Sunday learned hat the A, A. had called a meeting of the shearmén, they decided to go in a body to the meeting and pro- pose joint action. Led by a commit- tee of three, the members entered the meeting and were warmly greet- ed. Officials who called the meeting in order to pacify the shearmen to prevent struggles tried to sidetrack fon saying, “You can’t do any- ng wtih unorganized workers.” After the meeting, however, workers of the A.A. caine to the Industrial ion headquarters and agreed to call a meeting of shearmen, circulate ® petition in the mill and send a committee to Washington to protest the lay-off. Many non-union workers lunteered to help mobilize the Saearmen, A. A, Dwindles sce through N.R.A. promises. Last August, when the Amalgamated As- 8 ion caine here to recruit mem- the Bethlehem Steel Company, @ the influence of the Indus- ‘Ss, A meeting was arranged together with company uni representatives and many worl: re misled into join- ing the A, Their success was due the lack of activity of the Indus- 1 Union and its failure to under- nd the importance of working in- side the A.

Only a few members at- | tend the meetings of the A.A. Op- |Pposition groups organized in © the lodges of the A.A. have brought up the demand for united action with the Industrial Union at every meei- ing. In spite of the fact that the of- ficials managed to maneuver against immediate action for united front, the movement is nevertheless gaining headway. As a result of it, the at- tivities of the Stecl and Metal Work- ers Industrial Union are being re- vived considerably. Dues payments are increasing; new members are be- ing initiated at every meeting. The vicious stagger system in the Bethlehem Steel Co., where workers work as little as three and hour days @ month, is heading to @ point where struggle is inevitable within the near future. This is evident by the re- newed response of the workers to organization. The Steel and Metal Workers Industrial Union is making this campaign a part of the prepara- tions for the coming convention in the Spring. ‘Joblessness and | Speedup Alternate In Steel Plants (By a Group of Metal Worker Correspondents) FITCHBURG, Mass—Under the codes of the N.

In Cleve land the kick-back system is in force | iocaing of Cleveland give their| ‘oll on C.W.A. work.

A. projects for truck owners afd | then collecting part of their income. On one C.W.A. job in Cleveland, sev- eral hundred Republicans reported for work every day, and then turned| around and went home, drawing full! pay. Out of 105,515 registered job- | less in Cleveland, only 25,000 are at} work. ‘The corruption at the expense of C.W.A. workers perhaps reaches its height in the city of Los Angeles. A special committee investigating WA. gtaft charges, because of an inner political fight, admits part of the truth. The official report of this committtee states, “Our initial in- vestigation of charges of misinanage- ment, inefficiency, waste and poli- tical favoritism in passing out of C. W. A. jobs indicates that a majority of the complaints are based on facts.” Dig for Bodies Buried 30 Feet ‘What is the effect on the C.W.A. workers of Los Angeles and vicinity of this corrupt mess. During the recent West Coast flood interesting facts came to light. While workers’ homes Were left un- attended and in danger of immediate destruction, C.W.A. workers were sent digging for concrete monuments in Verdugo, Wash. While mud made roads impassable, 15 feet away (from Riverside Drive) C.W.A. workmen Were forced to dig dirt around a stone wall at Elysian Park, to make the park look better. In the Monrose Glendale area, men with hand shovels floundered in the mud trying to dig out bodies buried 30 fect deep. ‘The report of corruption in Los Angeles revealed that hundreds of C.W.A. workers were assigned jobs without being equipped with any tools and thus were forced to stand idle for weeks. Other facts uncovered in the Los Angeles graft scandal were: 1) Ex- cessive fees were paid to get help through private exchanges. 2) Bribes wére extracted from C.W.A, workmen by foremen. 3) Political favoritism was shown in giving out C.W.A. jobs, 4) Politics ruled in the purchase of supplies. These aré the charges which the investigators found to be true. D. of J. Harassed Workers In Los Angeles the “investigation” was pursued because the Roosevelt machine was building its political fences. In Bloomington, Indiana, last month, Department of Justice agents were sent in by the Roovevelt government, after similar charges by workers of graft and corruption in the C.W.A.

In Queens, in a gesture at) “investigation,” two foremen have been fired. But the kick-back racket which they practiced remains. In Queens as elsewhere, C,W.A. workers are forced to pay foremen and ‘‘mem- bers of labor gangs” a paft of every wéek’s wages. Complicity of book- keepers, clerks and supervisors in this widespread stealing of the wages of the unemployed workers is admitted. But the two Supervisors are still at large. This filthy racket is described under the high sounding name of “wage sharing” in the capitalist press. ‘The unemployed workers of Phila- delphia declare that the O.W.A. jobs of Philadelphia ate given out under the siogan “two jobs for every po- litical office-holder’s home.” All choice C.W.A. jobs have gone to the hand-picked apriieants in Philadel- phia who have political pull. PART OF SYSTEM sh instances have been giv- en to show that the racketetring in the C.W.A. is not accidental, but that it is part and parcel of the whole policy of the Roosevelt gov- ernment of giving all possible aid to the bankers, the employers, and at the same time taking this out of the hides of the workers. It is a | méans wheftby the democratic y, the party of finance capital, is rewarding its political hangers- on throughout the country.

Jan. 19— Custom tailors on general strike here led by the Needle Tradés Workers’ Industrial Union ended their strike this week after an agreetnent made with the Contractors’ Association that the question of union affiliation be settled by a vote of the workers, The Contractors’ Association and the Amelgamated Clothing Workers, who precipitated the strike when they tried to compel the tailors to join the A.
