Textile Convention Backs Workers’Bill (Continued from Page 1) | Workers’ Bill was then unanimously carried... — There was applause when Powers, in answering Batty before the vote declared: “There is nothing in the bill which s obnoxious. No Com- munist influence was used on the Legislative Committee. We believe the bill is a step in the right direc- tion.” Delegate Bush of Holyoke, | Mass. spoke of the superiority of | Militant rank and file members suc- , the Workers’ Bill over the Wagner- | Lewis Bill, declaring that the Wag- | ner-Lewis Bill would grant nothing | locals have promiseq to support to the millions now totally unem- | ploy@éd. He declared that the em- ployers oppose unemployment Surance because they want a la wmemployed army which is hungry and which the to use as scabs. | William Gordon of New York, reeretary of the legislative commit- tee declared: “The Legislative Com- mittee inspected both bills. Just because there is an element of Com- munism or something else is no reason to condemn a bill. We are | here to see that we can secure the | greatest benefit possible for the workers. The Lundeen Bill is an advance on anything we've had.” Locals Urged to Write Congressmen The resolution endorsed by the convention further called on all local unions of the U.T.W. to write their Congressmen and urge them to act without delay to secure the bill's passage at the next session of Congress. The resolution described the increasing misery of the mil- lions of unemployed and gave the chief features of the Workers Un- employment Insurance Bill, pointing out that it applies to all unem- ployed. One of the resolutions for the Workers Bill was presented by the Hosiery Workers Federation dele- gates, which had already voted to endorse the bill. Another was in- troduced by B. Herman from a New| York local. | Emil Reéve, of Milwaukee, in his speech on the Workers Bill, de-| clared: “The Lundcen Bill is by far | superior,” He declared that the! A. F. of L. supports the ‘Wagner- | Lewis Bill. He said their only ob- | jection to the Lundeen Bill was) their doubt as to its constitution- | ality. “The A. F. of L. does not Oppose the Lundeen Bill for any other reason,” he declared. Rieve did not bring out the fact that Green has fought against any effec- tive unemployment insurance for the workers, nor did he criticize the stand of the A. F. of L. leadership on the question of unemployment insuranc>. Discussion on N.R.A. A lengthy discussion on the con- vention’s position toward the N. R.| A. took place on two resolutions proposing withdrawal of all U. T. W. Officials from the N. R. A. boards. One of these resolutions, presented by H. Smith, of Local 1510, went into the character of the N.R. A. as a body, which has fos- tered company unions, kept down Wages through the code minimums, ‘and encouraged the union smash- ing terror against strikers.

The conference was controlled by militant rank and file delegates who have won the support of the jority of A. F. of L. painters in he state. Reaffirming the stand taken by Michigan painters in April, the}; State conference demanded that the A. F. of L. General Executive Board back the Workers’ Insurance Bill and that the International Painters’ Journal publish the reso- lution. Locals Condemn Green A resolution proposed by Local 37 of Detroit and Local 552 of Royal Oak condemning the strike-break- ing activity of president of the A. F. of L,, in the | San Francisco strike, was passed unanimously. A copy of the resolu- tion was sent to Green and to Swick, general secretary-treasurer of the Painters’ International. Other resolutions passed called for dues exemption for unemployed and for the re-establishment of a C. W.

Martel, president of the Detroit Federation of Labor, to keep militant workers out of the Central Labor body took a step for- ward when Local 37 of the Brother- hood of Painters, Decorators and Paperhangers (A. F. of L.) at a special meeting sent an ultimatum to the Detroit Federation demand- ing that all its delegates be seated within 30 days or the local will withdraw in a body. Local 37 is the largest painters’ local in Michi- gan. This action was taken after Mar- tel had for the third time in two years refused to seat Richard | Kroon, one of the local’s most ac- | tive members and secretary of the | Detroit A. F. of L. Rank and File Committee for Unemployment In- surance and Relief. The local’s gates were also instructed to raise this question on the floor of the Central Labor body.

Six Receive Heavy Sentences for Picketing Nazi Consulate C. P. Section Organizer, and Four Women Get Terms PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 15—One- year sentences for picketing the Nazi consulate were given here Monday to Ben Gardner, section organizer of the Communist Party, and James Wilson, leading Negro worker by Judge Otto Heiligman. Four women pickets were sen- tenced to six-month terms. All six sentences are to Holmesburg County workhouse. The most vigorous campaign is being planned by the International Labor Defense here, to smash the | fascist terror expressed in these vi- cious sentencés. The cases themselves will be ap- pealed, and a mass campaign launched to force the courts to rescind them. The whole drive will be linked with the fight to free | Ernst Thaelmann, which local au- thorities are doing their best to break down. The sentences, it was pointed out, are not only a direct imitation of Hitler terror methods, but ror in Germany. Workers in the court during the | trial vigorously applauded the wit- ness-stand speech of Gardner, de- spite the presence of squads of plainclothesmen, More than 150 of those who sought to attend the trial were forcibly prevented. | Both Gardner and Wilson ener- recommended “withdrawal of all of- ficials of the U. T. W. from posts in the N. R. A. and from all sec- tions’ of the N. R. A. and its boards.

Both resolutions characterized the N.R.A. as the ma- chinery of the big employers and declared the “necessity of a funda- mental change” in the position of the U.T.W., which must “regard the N'R.A. as an agency of the big em- ployers.” The legislative committee proposed to amend Herman's reso- lution to withdraw from N.R.A. boards “unless we receive adequate representation on all code authority.” |The resolution as amended finally |carried. Delegate Herman, in argu- ing for his resolution, while explain- ing that the N.R.A. has keen used by the employers in their attacks on the workers, did not bring out the role of the A. F. of L. officials, including the U.T.W. officials, as a COMMENTS ON SPORTS ® Jewish Examiner, a weekly, publishes in every issue, for its readers to sign, a petition to “Mem- bers of the American Olympic Com- mittee,” respectfully requesting them: “To reject the invitation of the German Olympic Committee to compete in the Berlin Olympiad; to refuse to certify entries from the United States to the Olympiad if held in Berlin; to transmit to the International Olympic Committee your disapproval of the treatment accorded German Jewish athletes, and to urge upon the International Olympic Committee the necessity of | transferring the XIth Olympiad to a site more in harmony with Olym- pic ideals than Nazi Germany.” With this petition it also pub- lished on July 20, a story with the head: “Hitler Carnage May Cause Olympic Shift.” In the story we discover that: “The Jewish Ex- amine: learned on unimpeachable authority this week that the series of barbaric murders has practically sealed the chances of Berlin re- taining the Olympics. The Ame:- ican committee in charge of the de- | cision is to sail shortly for Europe | ‘to make first hand investigations of | |war.” The resolution further pro- | Posed “that this convention declare | itself in favor of a general strike | of the entire labor movement in the | event of the outbreak of war.” The |Tesolution was defeated after de- bate on a rising vote by a vote of | 209 to 177. | A resolution was adopted for the | release of Tom Mooney and Wa |ren K. Billings; to endorse and pro- |Pose at the A. F. of L. convention the formation of a labor party; for }@ campaign against the company | unions and to urge the A. F. of L, | Executive Council to carry on such a campaign, and against the issu- |ance of injunctions in labor dis- | putes, A resolution was unanimously charges filed with it by the Exam- | iner,” | . * * 1 aad let us examine the petition and the story. 5 a the first place, does the Ex- | aminer protest against the out- |lawing of workers sports clubs by Hitler? It does not! It protests only against the Fascists’ persecution of the Jews. One would suppose from |what the Examiner itezates that “Olympic ideals” would be served were Hitler to order that the Jews be allowed to live in peace. The story contains no protest against Fascism. In fact, the word fascism is not even used once in the story or petition. For all the story gives | to understand, the isue is between | Nazi and “Olympic ideals,” not be- | tween Fascism and “Olympic ideals.” And, as I say, only the attitude | towards the Jews seems to be repre- sented in these “Olympic ideals.” The story cites six special laws is- * sued by the Nazis, and all the cita- | tions deal only with the Jews. ND what does the Jewish Ex- aminer mean by “Olympic for the reorganization of the A. F. | ae of L. unions along industrial lines.” Ree SOE Ha Te cg The delegates to the A. F. of L. convention were instructed to raise | the question of industrial form of organization there. Herman, the mover of the reso- lution, did not bring out in his speeches the role which is being | played by such “advocates” of in- dustrial unionism as Sidney Hill- man and John L. Lewis, who has “industrial unionism” in the U. M. W. A., but who, like MacMahon in | the textile union, does not follow ja class-struggle policy, but who, on | the contrary, follows the typical A. | F. of L. leaders’ policy of collabora- tion with the N.R.A. boards and ar- bitration as opposed to a fighting | policy. The industrial form with- | out struggle is not beneficial to the workers, In Herman’s speeches at the con- vention, he did not once analyze concretely the role played by Mac- Mahon and his fellow officials in urday by the Milk Drivers Indus- trial Union against the Soifer Farms, Inc., of 573 Wortman Ave- nue, Brooklyn. Soifer Farms serves the health stations with milk. The drivers, who are demanding @ 6-day week, increase in pay and recognition of their union, have been working seven days a week, object to the resolution for indus- trial unionism. But Herman did not bring out, for example, the role of MacMahon, Gorman, etc., in pre- venting the woolen and worsted and silk strikes and the cotton textile strikes. MacMahon and Gorman, instead of leading a fight, signed the N.R.A, agreements and thus lost the wage and recognition de- mands of the woolen, worsted and cotton workers. Herman ignored an exposure of the fact that the N.R.A. with these U.T.W. leaders’ collabo- ration, has defeated the demands of the workers in these industries and carrying out this no-strike, arbi- tration policy. MacMahon did not ideals?” Let us give an example of American “Olympic ideals,” The A. A. U., which is the prime factor in the American Olympic tryouts, is a deadly discriminator against Negroes. The Labor Sports Union, to give only one proof, is in pos- session of a letter from L. Di Bene- detto, secretary-treasurer of the Southern Assoication of the A. A. U. (and Recreational Commissioner of New Orleans), which expressly states that: “Negroes are not per- mitted to compete with white men and women in the South.” And, “this does not apply only to the Southern Association,” the letter continues, Let us give another illustration. From a convention of the A. A. U., picked at random, we find these names among the delegates: Capt. Reilly of Ill, Capt. Carlton of the Mid-West Ass’n., Lt. Col. Dieges, of | the Military Athletic League, Major John J, Dixon, Gen, Douglas Mc- |Arthur, Gen. Joseph P. O'Neill, Magor J. I. Peyser and Col. Theo- |dore Roosevelt. And one of the American delegates to the Interna- tional Olympic Committee is Wil- |liam May Garland, a colonel, is now doing the same in the southern strikes, William Fuchs What “Olympic ideals” do these military gentlemen represent? Do they represent the ideal of peace? ‘They may eat my suspenders, which are decorated with Soviet stars!
