Zausher did not, however, give up his ambition to become boss in our District Council. A few months later, with the aid of the Master Painters and the underworld, he got himself elected as secretary- treasurer to District Council 9. His return to the organization was followed by a reign of terror, | ~ instituted by a well-known gang- ster firm of Brooklyn. Trade Union Democracy Vanishes Even the remnants of trade union democracy disappeared from the union. From illegal taxation he raised more than $160,000, which Was spent to pay off the “friends” who helped him into office. The master painters also got their share. Their investment to elect Zausner| turned out to be a good paying} proposition. It brought more than 6 per cent interest. Zausner’s first action was to accept a cut from} $11.20 a day to $9. This was given to the painters as a victory. The $9 was supposed to be for a seven-| hour day. In reality, the $9 turned out to be $6, and the seven-hour day lengthened to eight and nine. Campaign Against Zausner | The militant members of the or-| ganization have conducted a very good campaign against the Zausner machine. Through leaflets, mass! meetings, the press, etc. we have exposed the Zausner machine and given a program based on a class, Struggle policy, for higher wages,| Shorter hours, for the enforcement of the union agreement, for unem- ployment insurance, dues exemption of the unemployed and trade union democracy in the local unions.

This idea should be rejected by every class-conscious painter. Nothing would better please the capitalists than to see the unions coming to the “impartial” capitalist court for justice. This would fit in 100 per cent with their plans to fascisize the unions and bring gov- ernment supervision into the trade front page news that the San Fran- | The stand of every mili-|cisco Teamsters Union voted 1,220} unions. tant trade unionist must be: “capi- talist courts, judges and other goy- ernment arbitrators; hands off the trade unions.” Suppose this painters’ situation were in Mayor Hague’s city, or in Alabama, where the workers haven't even the right to picket, where hundreds of workers are jailed daily for exercising their constitutional rights?

She added that “of course there was no pre- cedent for this.” |Your correspondent asked Miss Perkins whether she was aware, then, that there was a precedent for full control of hiring halls by workers, as was done recently in ore. Instead of Perkins went into a speech about the finks and corruption of which workers complain under boss control of hiring halls. Pressed to recall that these finks and shanghai methods were struck a mighty blow when the Baltimore seamen set up their own centralized Shipping Bureau and controlled 85 | percent of the port jobs, Perkins | declared: “So reliable an informant as Mr. Furuseth told me that he had seen control of hiring halls by seamen allow corruption and crimps to creep in.” In a long explanation how settle- ment of the strike has been “fur- ther complicated” since “for some reason or other” the workers turned down the offer of joint control, and since sympathetic strikes have de- veloped, Miss Perkins declared that one “further complication” was that the workers on a Belt Line owned | by the State of California went out | and “there is a dispute as to whether unfair pressure was put upon them.” The Belt Line was State property, she emphasized, burned two cars, after which the police came to the docks. “No Information” On Bridgeton UNITED BUS DEPOT 208 West 43d Street, Between 7th and 8th Aves. ‘Telephone WISC!

Then the dis- cussion shifted to the agricultural strike in New Jersey, in which dozens have been arrested and the threat of martial law reported in nearly every newspaper. Somebody asked the Labor Secre- tary whether the Jersey farm strike had been brought to her attention. “Ts there one?” she responded. “What is the answer to all these low-paid agricultural workers?” Miss Perkins explained that the fact is “We have very little information” on this question. She was asked whether that ex- plains the fact that President Roosevelt's A. A. A. has not even professed to provide minimum wages and maximum hours for farm la- borers, although the same agency has thrown thousands upon thou- sands of farm workers out of jobs by cutting down production. “What we know is very scanty,” said Miss Perkins. “Very sketchy.

Viereck said: “I didn’t enter it because there are spies and professional Jews and Bolsheviks who are always trying to get something against us.” 5 ef} To explain this fact Got $1,750 a Month NEW YORK.—Interlarding his testimony with boastfulness and pro-Nazi speeches, Viereck admit- | ted that he receives $1,750 a month | from the publicity agency of Carl) Byoir, which is under contract to} German firms. Viereck told the| committee, which is investigating | Nazi activities in this country, that he acts in an “advisory capacity” | for the Byoir agency on “German- | American relations.” Viereck’s real function was brought out during later testimony which showed that the Byoir Agency, under a $110,000 contract, has done nothing so far save dis- tribute in this country 3,000 pro- | Nazi pamphlets in the guise of “in. | formation.” The admitted domination of Ger- man commercial enterprise in this country by the Nazi government made it clear that money paid to publicity agencies here was not for services to commercial firms, but for open and disguised Nazi propaganda and the building of the Friends of the New Germany and the Nazi- Dominated German-American Soci- eties. When Congressman McCormick, chairman of the inquiry, asked if he had suggested to Hitler the advisability of having a publicity agent in the United States, Viereck replied: “I preached it everywhere in Ger- many. Under questioning Viereck admit- ted that he was instrumental in getting for the Byior agency the contract with the Hamburg-Ameri- can Line and the German Railways. Following the inquiry, Congress- man Dickstein reported that a copy of minutes of a closed session of the House committee which had been denied to Viereck, had later found their way into Viereck’s hands. Hitler Censored Staats-Zeitung Victor Ridder, publisher of the Staats-Zeitung, German pro-Nazi daily, told the committee that while the now discredited Heinz Spank- noebl was in this country he showed Ridder a letter from Dr. Ley, head of the Nazi labor front, ordering Ridder to stop any criti- cism whatsoever of Hitler’s policies. Previously Ridder’s paper had pre- tended to mild criticisms. Beatrice Beecher, a writer and lecturer, testified that she saw Storm Troopers in uniform board various German vessels in the port of New York and hold Fascist ral- lies. The tie-up of the Nazi govern- ment and German commercial firms when Walter Schellender testified in America was further exposed that while working here for the Friends of New Germany he drew $4,500 in commissions over a four- month period from the firm of Rob- ert C. Mayer, which handles Ger- man government securities. Schel- lender admitted to close relations with Rudolph Hess and other im- portant Nazi officials.

They were defended by Abraham Isserman, attorney, who has acted for the 15 pickets who were arrested in front of the Miller plant.
