He is expected to speak tomorrow. Johnson Gelivered his weil known Jingo anti-British speech in the] familiar pulpit tones. He warned what another token payment by Britain to the U. S, next month would be a default under his bill.| Clearly intimating that the world stands in the shadow of another imperialist war, he declared: “Today the World is in ferment.

Edmund Garland, vice-president of the board, that the action was taken because the racial ques- tion had been raised.

Griffith spent most of his time dealing with the necessity of united front action between Socialist and Communist Party workers and of the need for united ranks of the working class to defeat the hunger and war plans of the capitalist class. He further stated that while we must build organization to fight for the right to live now, the only per- manent solution is through a pro- letarian revolution and the setting up of a workers’ government which, alone, can build socialism. Superior May Day Meet Draws 400 Workers SUPERIOR, Wis.— One hundred workers participated in a parade to Tower Ave. and Broadway where 300 workers assembled to hear four speakers including Rudolph Harju for the Communist Party and V.

The strikc has been on since Mareh 20 under the leadership of the Fro Workers Industrial Union. Socialist and A.

The old grafter, who ruined thou- sands upon thousands of small mid- dle class investors, and who during | his two-years’ exile made a habit of conveniently getting heart-attacks whenever the police got too close for his sensitive nostrils, built his huge fortune by issuing millions of dollars worth of valueless securities and stocks in connection with his vast Honest Crook,” paper holding companies of electric power companies. But now Insull is contrite. “I have erred,” he whined on his! arrival. “I made mistakes, but they} were honest mistakes.” What Mr.| Insull meant was that he thought he'd never get caught in his shady dealings, He is off to Chicago amid the ‘same Juxury that surrounded his| brightest days and his pleasure jaunt in Europe. Observers who noted his jaundiced appearance, brought on by too much of the soft and mushy and sweet things of life, opined that the old power grafter would soon rival John R. Rockefeller, Sr., as first mummy of the land. Boilermakers, On Strike in College Town, Reject NRA Refuse to ‘‘Arbitrate”’; A.F.L, Leaders Send Tn Scabs CAMBRIDGE, Mass, May 6. — Sixty skilled and unskilled workers walked out of the Riverside Boiler Works on April 29. The workers have elected their own strike com- mittee and are demanding recogni- tion of their Industrial Metal Work- ers’ Union, increased pay, and full payment for their work. The strike is now entering its second week. The strikers have stopped scabs sent by A. F, of L. officials from entering the plant. Heretofore, Riverside Boiler Works has been one of the worst sweat chops in the “college city.” Pay is low and treatment bad. The high- est possible pay has been fifty-nine cents an hour. The Code rate of forty cents has many times been openly violated by tricky, cold- blooded maneuver. The strikers have rejected two N. R. A. strike-breaking decisions, and have voted to negotiate only with the boss, and accept no compulsory arbitration. Laundry Strikers of Chicago Helped by Daily Worker Story (Daily Worker Midwest Bureau) CHICAGO, IIl., May 4.—Exposure in last Saturday's Daily Worker of their action forced officials of the A. F. of L, Laundry Workers Union to ‘find’ a ten dollar chéck sent to Saratoga Laundry strikers by Paint- ers’ Local 275 several weeks ago. The A. F. of L. leaders refused to give it to strikers until the Daily Worker article appeared. The Saratoga workers, members of Laundry Workers International Union, Local No. 100, of the A. F. of L. have been on strike for 40 days. They demand 25 cents an hour for unskilled workers, a forty five hour week, no overtime, and recognition of their elected shop committee. In a leaflet published Wednesday, the strikers show that though they fre members of the A. F. of L. they are learning that the leadership of that organization is against their in- terests. The leaflet points out that , Laundry Drivers, belonging to Local No. 712 of the A. F. of L. are carry- ing bundies to the scab workers in the Saratoga Laundry. The strikers call upon the workérs to support the mass picket line outside the plant at 214 Huron St. at 5 p.m. every day. A strike mass meeting will be held at 900 N. Clark St. 8 p.m. Sunday, May 6. The leaflet also appeals for food and financial help to carry on the struggle, Funds should be sent to 220 W. Oak St. The strike, though called by A. F. of L. leaders, is now being led by a rank and file committee. Tell your friends and shopmates about the Daily Worker.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Mem- bers of the Communist Party and of all revolutionary mass or- ganizations in South Philadel- phia, were greatly grieved at the sudden death last week of Sam- uel Farber, from a heart attack. Fellow Worker Farber was a close sympathizer with the revo- lutionary movement and was of great help to various organiza- tions in his capacity as manager of Gollub’s on South Seventh Street. He is survivied by a widow and several sons, and all members of revolutionary organ- izations who knew him, wish to extend comradely consolations to his family. ‘Forward’Launches| Attack on Strike! Accuses Communists of “Antagonizing”” Cops PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 6.— Workers of the Starrle Mill, who returned to work after a six weeks’ strike, walked out again Thursday noon. This was in protest against the actions of the bosses to discrim- inate against the workers who were | the most militant and active in the | organization of the shop before the strike and during it. The strikers! say they will stay out until there is | assurance of no discrimination against the strikers. Hl Workers of four other mills are| still out on strike. The “Forward,” yellow organ of the Socialist Party, carried a story that day under the headline, “Communist Leaders Kill Strike of Philadelphia Knit-Goods Workers.” | The story accused the Communists of “antagonizing “the bosses and criticizes them for not putting the case in the hands of the Labor Board.” The strikers are familiar with the record of the local Labor Board which sold-out the recent | taxi strike and its record in the Budd strike where the workers were forced back to work without) the granting of a single demand. This action of the Socialist sheet follows the line laid down by the 8. P., which has taken the lead of two strikes in Camden. In the ship yard strike, they have laid the mat-j| ter before President Roosevelt, who is anxious that the two warships under construction at the yards be finished and that no labor trouble City Officials, Cops Fail to Give Permit for Anti-Nazi Rally (Continued from Page 1) | | enemy territory to parade?” asked the fair-and-square Fowler. But the delegation was tricked by these words. “Since when,” demanded Pauline Rogers, spokesman of the group, “has the Yorkville section become the property of the Nazis?” La- Guardia had often permitted Nazis to parade there in uniform, but now, according to Fowler, had instructed ; the police department to refuse to issue permits in cases where “trouble” might result. “When you refuse us a permit,” Rogers continued, “you are en- | couraging the Nazis here. You | not are protecting them and aiding them in their activities. We de- | mand our right to march on May 10, not in ‘enemy territory,’ but in the streets of New York, which | belong to the people of New York.” Commissioner Fowler finally promised to get in touch with O’Ryan when he returned and to communicate with the delegation later in the day. Meanwhile the delegation drew up three letters protesting the po- lice ban of this parade. The letters are to go to Deutsch, O’Ryan and LaGuardia. In the event that the permit is refused by the police de- partment, another delegation will go to see Mayor LaGuardia at City Hall at 10:30 a.m. today. ieee net Continue Preparations Increased preparations are being made by organizations throughout the city for a huge anti-Nazi rally to take place in Yorkville, May 10. The parade will begin at Karl Schurz Park, 86th Street and. Ave- nue A, at 7 p.m. A series of open-air meetings is being held on May 9 in preparation for this anti-fascist demonstration. A meeting will take place in York- ville, May 9, at 86th Street near Lexington Ave. Other open-air meetings on May 9 will take place! in the Bronx at 172nd St. and Washington Ave., in Brownsville at Hopkinson and Sutter Avenues, near ithe Odd Fellows Hall at 106th St. and Park Ave., on the West Side of 95th St. and Broadway, also in Harlem, Ridgewood and Downtown, | New York.

Smith Ends Stove | Strike in Detroit With Betrayal Head of MESA Leaves Strikers Open to Blacklist (Special to the Daily Worker) DETROIT, May 6.—The strike of one thousand workers at the Mich- igan Stove Company has finally ‘been smashed. The walkout started April 9 under the leadership of the Mechanics Educational Society of America, with demands for a 20 per cent wage increase and the 36-hour, five-day week. Despite the splen- did militancy of the strikers, the treacherous policies of Matthew Smith, General Secretary of the M. E. S. A., plus the terror against the strikers by armed gangsters, operating under police protection, | succeeded in breaking the strike. In announcing the end of the strike. Smith continued his ef- forts to dupe the workers by declaring the settlement was a “compromise” and that the com- pany had agreed to take the men back without discrimination and to make wage “adjustment.” This was denied in toto by John A. Fry, vice- president of the company, who de- clared scabs would remain and only about half of the strikers would be taken back on the old terms. It is clear that the most militant strikers are being victimized, Subsistence Farms Started in Texas’ Workers Paid 90 Cents a Week at Forced Labor AUSTIN. Texas.—A new meastire by which the government is trying to further enslave the Southern worker is the “subsistence village” system. A consolidation of tran- sient camps and subsistence farms, such villages are under construction in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. One subsistence village, located about 20 miles from Austin, Texas, speaks for the others in the gen- eral uniform plan of the govern- ment. The village. of which the construction is practically complete, is about a mile from the main high- way. A narrow road through the cedarbrake leads to a large, basin- rounded by mountains. It is well- hidden from the public, and there has purposely been no publicity to attract attention to it. 90 Cents a Week “Pay” The villages will be comprised of entire families—the men doing the various work allotted to them. The women will keep house, which means a complete denial of a woman’s right to an equal place in business and professional life. All of the villages will be run on a sub- sistence basis, with “pay in kind.” The laborer will receive approxi- mately 90 cents per week cash al- |lowance, while the “white collar” houses and several homes nearby were endangered.

Yet, it is true that the work of organizing such a movement in the United States has been a difficult one. It is painful to think how in- significant our athletic organizations are, in comparison with the similar ones which grew up in Germany, for instance. This fact remains, though it must be kept in view, of course, that a body like our Labor Sports Union, whose duty it is to be the dominant factor in the form- ing and welding of such groups, is severely handicapped both in money and in forces with which to carry on its task. PS igsst ae IS obvious that thousands of workers who have not been con- tacted by workers’ clubs and who are in the main unaware of the existence of such clubs are members of so-called social clubs. These clubs provide them with various forms of recreation besides athletics. They are even in many instances discus- sion clubs. With them more than one form of co-operation can be successfully achieved. On the issue of war and fascism particularly, is the ground fallow. On a like issue the National Students League was WILLIAM FUCHS An Anti-War Field Day — | PARTICULARLY needed in the fight against war and fascism is a strong workers’ sport movement. This must again. When the imperialists contrive to plunge the world into another conflict, it will depend upon the youth, organized and class-conscious, to The International Sports Con- gress Against War and Fascism will take place in Paris this year Augnst 11-15. With this in mind, the City Clubs Council, with a membership of 2,000 has arranged for an Anti-War Field Day on Saturday, June 2, a few days fol- lowing National Youth Day, The place is Ulmer Park. More than 100 social clubs of the kind I men- ton have been contacted, with favorable response. So favorable, indeed, that the East Flatbush section, which sells many dollars worth of literature a week to these clubs (Fight and New Masses) has undertaken to sell a thousand tickets. In addition to the athletics the Workers’ Laboratory Theatre will give a performance. Pe er OM the Council, however, comes a complaint. It has approached the Labor Sports Union, the Na- tional Students League and the In- ternational Labor Defense, but from none of these, it asserts, has it re- ceived any active co-operation. The national secretary of the Labor Sports Union, Comrade Richard Heikkinen, informs me that this is not so as far as his organization is concerned. But it is obvious that all these bodies must make a reso- lute attempt to popularize the event, not only in getting down spectators and sympathizers with its purpose, but in bringing about mass partici- pation in the contests.

Hatters Prepare For Strike; Will Meet Today to Discuss Plan! | NEW YORK. — Hatters in New York are getting ready to strike for an increase in wages. The exact amount that will be demanded by the hatters from the hat manufac- turers is not known yet. A shop conference of the United Hatters | Local 8 on Tuesday and a meeting; on Thursday of Local 7, will decide on the demands of the workers of each of these locals. Last week at a shop-call of the Perfect Shop the men instructed their delegates to the conference to propose an increase of 76¢ on a doz. This would increase the earnings of the average finisher from $6.72 to $9.00 a day. Judging by this and the sentiment. among the workers in other shops this will most likely be the demand of the union. I. W. 0.
