Upon the militant workers in the organization depends the carrying through of real strike and the full utilization of the strike spirit in Detroit for union organization and the improvement of working con- ditions. Program of Militant Action It is up to the militants (known as the Progressives in the organi- zation) to demand and put through a real rank and file strike com- mittee which embraces the best fighters in the shops, the unem- the students expelled for anti-R.O.

A_ temporary headquarters of the Manhattan local has been set up at 131 W. 28th St. by the garage chairmen, headed by Samuel Orner, Joseph Gilbert and Harry Cantor. Late Thursday night Orner and Gilbert made a tour of the Man- hattan hackstands. They were greeted on every corner by the driv- ers, who pledged to support the fight to maintain their independent union and to smash the attempts of the Socialist leaders and pro- split their ranks.

F. of L, and the Auto Workers Union. It is necessary that the militants check the tendency of Smith to con- ifront the organization and the strike committee with accomplished facts which are contrary to the deci- sions of the rank and file and which nullifies their powers. This is in- stanced by the misuse of his pow- ers to carry on negotiations in is- suing a statement that he was ready to concede on the demands for a 20 per cent wage increase and the 36-hour demand, stating that he was ready to accept a 10 per cent increase and « 40-hour week.

Alexander Marks, A. F. of L.

As the regular spokesman for the American Feder- ation of Labor I know nothing of any plans for a strike.” The Flint Fisher Plant, number one, local of the A.

Field, Cannon, Gitlow and other leaders and guiding hands of the) union opposed such a move. These gentlemen steered the strike to de- feat. | Following the defeat of the strike, when a large number of strikers were discriminated against and | blacklisted, the rank and file of the union voted to oust the old leader-| ship and set up their own executive | committee.
