Fellow workers The Union Textile Workers greets the general e delegates to U.T.W. Cony ion. ile Workers Union operation and sup- the organization of such a Strike by the beginning of National heartily ional general September. A general textile strike is the only effective answer textile workers can give to the Southern mill owners, who with terroristic campaigns and | murder are trying to crush the splen- did strike of the A! 1 workers. A general s effective answer the vicious stretch-out and speed-up that is be- ing extended in every textile mill, North and south. A general strike is the only effective answer to the| NR.A. National Labor Board that| has forestalled or c tant action of the text ( after another, thus helping to mai to tain starvation wages and mis able working conditions in every | textile mill. Such a general strike will succeed if prepared and organized NOW by| the rank and file textile workers in| plan will be submitted to the Board | every mill. It would be fatal to wait for McMahon, Gorman or the other top leaders of the U.T.W. to} prepare such a strike. These gen-/| tlemen will exert all their energies to stifle a militant general strike. | The only reason these gentlemen did not oppose the vote for general | strike at the convention is because they feared the rank and file would | go over their heads. | Already McMahon and Gorman | are talking of averting the general | Strike through the personal inter- | vention by President Roosevelt. | They talk of using Roosevelt, for | they can no longer fool the textile | workers by proposing arbitration by | the N.R.A. Labor Boards. They want | the textile workers to forget that} Roosevelt is the author and head | of the N.R.A., that he signs all codes and is just as responsible for the low wage standard and the Stretch-out in the mills as the N.R. A, administration. | Do not forget that in the steel and auto industries the A. PF. of L.| leaders also got President Roose- | velt to intervene. What was the! result? By accepting Roosevelt ar-| bitration and forestalling strike ac- | tions the steel and auto workers lost every single one of their demands. | Their grievances became worse. In- | stead of getting union recognition, they got more company unions. | ‘Textile workers can expect nothing | better from similar arbitration. | A general strike now is the only | effective method that will bring the | textile employers to terms. The Na-| tional Textile Workers Union calls | upon all textile workers, upon all} U.T.W. locals to begin immediate | Preparation for the strike. | Elect broad rank and file Strike Committees in every mill; these committees to include workers of all unions, and unorganized work- ets. Place the handling of all strike questions, including negotiations, into the hands of such strike com- mittees. Prepare mass picket lines around every mill. Do not allow our demands to be submitted to ar- bitration on a local or national Scale. Do not return to work until the demands are granted. All set- tlement proposals to be subject to the ratification of all strikers be- fore they take effect. U.T.W. locals should adopt resolutions condemn- ing McMahon’s maneuvering for arbitration through President Roose- velt and the N.R.A. Send resolu- tions to Bill Green demanding that he mobilize all A. F. of L, locals to support the coming strike. Begin setting up strike relief committees in every textile center to give finan- Cial support to the strikers. One million textile workers in the United States now have a splendid opportunity to strike and win higher Wages, less speed-up, and better working conditions in every section of the textile industry.

Large commission agents and |brokers are to be exempted from | the burden of the tax by the plan whereby they will pay the same proportionate tax only on gross in- come, not on total gross receipts. In addition to directing the bur- den upon the small business people, all professional workers will be taxed one-half of one per cent of their gross incomes. Legislation embodying the tax of Estimate at a special hearing today, and to the Board of Alder- men on Friday. Final action on the .tax will be taken after the public hearings on these dates. The taxes, to be effective on gross receipts for 1934 will be payable after Jan. 1, 1935, the exact date having not yet been established. Professional workers, according to the plan will be taxed. The lottery, planned after the program submitted by Bronx Borough President Lyons will espe- cially direct itself to the working population. ilitants Prepare For A..L. Congress (Continued from Page 1) of the expulsion campaign of 1926. Fascist attacks are being prepared not only for the members of the A. F. of L., but for all militant workers. | This is evident in the statement is- | sued by the A. F. of L. Executive Council and their instructions to the Ohio and Massachusetts State Fed- | erations of Labor, attacking the | anti-Nazi Committees, as breaking up the labor movement in the United States and raising the ‘red’ scare. The statement is a warning to the rank and file that the A. F. of L. reactionaries will line up with the dark forces of reaction to exe- cute an attack upon any workers’ | organization fighting against fas- cism, against war and in the inter- ests of the workers. Class Fights Growing “Although the A. F. of L. mis- leaders have succeeded in forcing hundreds of thousands of workers into submission, great class battles have been fought in Toledo, Ala- bama, Minneapolis, on the West Coast and elsewhere. The rank and file have already shown in action that they will fight over the heads of the reactionary officials. In the great strikes they are repudiating the methods of these ‘leaders’ and have formed rank and file strike committees, have conducted mass picketing, have united with workers in other unions to defend their rights, in open defiance of the threats and intimidation of the A. F. of 1. officials. “At the coming Fifty-fourth Con- vention, when the old tried reaction- ary leaders will get together to con- sider the methods of best maintain- ing the interests and profits of the employers, there will also be called together delegates of the rank and| file from all parts of the country to | challenge their policies. Some of these rank and file delegates will be delegated to th Fifty-fourth Con- tion. “The national A. F. of L. Trade Union Committee for Unemploy- ment Insurance and Relief, working will local committees, is making all necessary preparations to have as many rank and file delegates to the A. F. of L. convention as possible in order to defend the rank and file program, “The rank and file will expose the silence of the A. F. of L. Executive Couneil when dozens of pickets have been murdered and hundreds wounded and crippled in the face of troops, terror and shootings, and their silence on injunctions. We will demand an answer to their policy of discriminating against and jim-crowing the Negro workers and Playing directly into the hands of the employers in dividing Negro and white workers. We will demand an answer to the strike-breaking meas- ures against the West Coast strike. The Fake Opposition “Elements in the convention like John L. Lewis, Dubinsky, Hillman and Zimmerman will pose as oppon- ents of the Executive Council. They will call for broadening out the Exe- cutive Council and even for indus- trial unionism. In reality, they stand for the, same policies as the In N oa York on P.

Rank and File Resolutions “The National Committee meeting | held in Detroit on Aug. 11 and 12, | where fifty-two delegates from the basic industries met to consider the program of the rank and file, to be presented at the Fifty-fourth Con- | vention, drew up a series of resolu- | tions: 1—On Unemployment Insur- ance; 2—On Federal Local Un- ions; 3—Demanding withdrawal of officials from N.R.A. Board: 4—For wage increases and im- | proved working conditions; 5— Calling for solidarity actions with workers on strike for their rights and conditions regardless of union affiliation; 6—Against company unions and for the right to be- long to unions of our own choice; 7—For industrial unionism based on struggle; 8—On exempting un- employed from dues; 9—On democ- racy in the trade unions; 10— Right of trade union members to belong to any political organiza- tion; 11—Against the use of the National Guard and against in- junctions and terror; 13—On William Green’s strike-breaking action in the West Coast strike. 14—Repudiating A. F. of L. reac- tionary officials’ stand on sym- pathy strike. “The rank and file in the A. F. of L. local unions should introduce res- olutions and instruct their delegates to the convention to fight for these resolutions. Every Federal local union, every Central Trade and Labor Council is entitled to one del- egate to the convention. “The rank and file members of these Federal locals must do every- thing in their power to elect del- |egates to the convention who will represent the sentiment of the rank |and file membership. “Functioning A. F. of L. Commit- tees, as well as local unions, are called upon to elect representatives to the Rank and File Conference. “These delegates will be elected not by the top officials or by the corrupt machine, but will be duly elected by rank and file members. A large number of these delegates must come from the coal mines, steel mills, auto factories and from other basic industries. “The delegates to the Rank and File Conference should be elected directly at local union meetings. Due to the great distance, one local union may not be in a position to send one delegate. However, several jocal unions jointly can elect del- egates to the conference. “The A. F. of L. Committees in the various cities must call special conferences between Aug. 15 and Oct. 1, at which proposais and res- olutions should be worked out for the Conference, and delegates | elected. | “Arrangements have been made |for a two-day conference in San Francisco, and for a large mass |meeting to be held in one of the largest halls in that city.

Leaders’ Sirikebreaking To Terrorize Rank and File NEW YORK.—The national ex- Y | ecutive board of the Trade Union| whose main role to Unity League, through Jack Stachel, acting national secretary, yesterday issued the following statement on William Green's pronouncement at Atlantic City Saturday: The statement issued Saturday by William Green, in which he calls for a “holy war” and pogrom against Communists and “radicals” is in reality a vicious attack against the rank and file of the American nist League to make| Federation of Labor and against the | Tank and file in protest against the American working class as a whole. It is an effort by Green to head off and smash the opposition of the rank and file which is expected to materialize at the coming state and national conventions of the A. F. of L. against the strikebreaking, the treachery and continued betrayals of the workers by the bureaucracy. Green’s statement is an effort to destroy the growing insurgence of the great mass of rank and file workers of the A. F. of L. who to- day are in motion against the brazen collaboration of Green and Com- pany with the employers and strike- breaking N.R.A. Green's statement is an effort to terrorize the A. F, of L, member- ship to assure the Roosevelt. pro- gram being carried through more easily, the program of wage cutting, starvation codes, compulsory arbi- tration, terror, hunger and war. Throughout the A. F. of L. there exists a seething ferment in the ranks of the membership against the treachery of the A. F. of L, bu- reaucracy, the treachery which has been manifested time and again, in knifing the steel strike, in smash- ing the general strike in San Fran- cisco, Toledo, Milwaukee, Alabama, in textiles and elsewhere, in chain- ing the workers to the infamous “merit clause” in the auto indus- try, in collaborating with the em- ployers to chain the workers to starvation codes and in numerous instances of plain strikebreaking, racketeering and corruption, The role of the A. F. of L. bu- reaucracy, as a part of the govern- ment apparatus in averting strikes, or in setting themselves at the head of strikes to later betray them, and in their collaboration with the em- ployers against the interests of the workers, has resulted in the rank and file going into action against this strikebreaking bureaucracy and engaging in struggles over their heads. The struggle of the workers for better conditions, higher wages, for real unions, etc. had to be waged over the heads and opposi- se piteenlhlen chitin tints i} bureaucracy | is to colle-| borate with the employers against} the workers, to avert strikes or if! failing in this then to set them-| selves at the head of struggles so} as to later behead them, The strikebreaking role of Green) and company, and the desire of the} workers to struggle for real unions and better conditions, has resulted in a seething ferment throughout the A. F. of L. on the part of the jtion of the A. F. of jey | strikebreaking activities and treach- jery of the A. F. of L. leadership. This consciousness among the work- ers, accompanied by a developing organization of rank and file op-| position groups, unity committees, united front movements, etc., all of which rise to challenge the bureau- eracy, sends a chill of fear through Green and company. The rank and file of the A. F. of L. are determined to smash this strikebreaking activity and establish militant unionism by electing and following rank and file leaders following a militant, class policy, The anti-working class activity of Green and company, manifested in a hundred different strikes and struggles, their collaboration with the employers against the workers and their strikebreaking actions (Toledo, San Francisco, etc.), in trying to chain the workers to the slave labor codes (“merit clause” in auto), etc., their agreement with the compulsory arbitration and company unionization schemes of the Wagner Bill, their “no strike” agreements, ete., convince the rank and file of the A. F. of L. that this bureaucracy must be smashed, and real, militant working class leaders take their place. This is the real reason for the attack by Green against the rank and file of the A. F. of L. Joining hands with other reactionary forces, Green resurrects the “red scare” to terrorize the workers, The T.U.U.L. calls upon the rank and file of the A. F. of L. to redouble their efforts to mobilize their forces for prepara- tions for the October A. F. of L. Convention, where they will sharply struggle against the treachery and collaboration of Green with the bosses and N.R.A. and the sell-out policies of the A. F, of L. bureau- eracy, against the A. F. of L. rack- eteering and gangsterism, and where the rank file will fight vigorously against Green in behalf of unem- ployment insurance and for the Workers’ Unemployment and Social Insurance Bill, H.

Members of the Industrial Union, after coming to an agreement last week with the International for one united strike, met early this week with a committee of the In- ternational and offered three pro- posals to strengthen the unity and the strike, but the Intenational committee walked out of the con- ference, acting on instructions of Moe Harris, Jack Schulman, The three proposals which the International committee refused to accept were: 1) Joint picketing of all shops on strike, as well as the open shops. 2) To elect a committee of. three in each shop; these com- mittees to constitute the strike committee to direct the strike, to act on settlements. 3) That a joint mass demon- stration be called in the fur market againct the shipment of work to open shops in other cities. After listening to the proposals, the committee of the International broke up the conference by walk- ing out. The rank and file committee of the Fur Workers Industrial Union issued an urgent appeal yesterday to the membership of Locals 25 and 85 of the International, call- ing on them to take up the pro- posals made at the conference. Leaders of the Fur Workers In- dustrial Union—Ben Gold, Irving Potash, Louis Hyman and J.

Wilson, Black and Harry Jack- son, organizer for the Marine Workers’ Industrial Union, who drew a similar sentence on the same charge, are all out on $1,000 bond, pending appeal to the Superior Court. The count against Wilson was that he had “gone from place to place without lawful business.” He was not permitted to introduce any evidence whatsoever concerning the IL.D., thowever, except the Labor Defender, official organ of the IL.D., his membership book and an application card. A telegram from the national of- fice of the I.L.D., received in court, confirming his election as organ- izer, and citing the recognition which State and U. 8. Supreme Courts as well as departments of the federal government have been forced to give to the LL.D. as a legal defense organization, was ruled out as evidence. ‘The prosecution admitted that it had no case of vagrancy, or proof that the I.L.D. was unlawful, but said, in a fascist appeal to the busi- ness and professional men on the jury: “This intelligent young man is using his brains to mislead poor workers and I ask you to send him to jail to show him we won't want his ideas here.” A broad Labor Conference for Civil Rights is to be held in Car- penters Hall here Sunday, August 26, to mobilize defense for the vic- tims of the West Coast terror, and for the organizations which the state is attempting to illegalize. 24 Await Trial ‘Twenty-four prisoners remain In the city jail awaiting trial, and the LL.D. is taking out habeas corpus writs for their release, as the law provides that isdemeanor cases must be tried within thirty days unless a continuance is asked by the defense.

Government Wage-Cutting Plan Exposed ROCKFORD, Iil., Aug. 22.—Speak- ing in the city-owned park here, Monday, Joe Kiss, national secretary of the Furniture Workers Industrial Union, charged the federal govern- ment with being responsible for the undermining of the wage scale and conditions of the fu:niture workers, Kiss is here to prepare the furni- ture workers for a general stzvike. In pointing out the role of the government in reducing the wage scale, Kiss refe:red to the govern- ment project of ordering 2,000,000 mattresses, presumably for war pur- poses which the government has al- ready begun to manufacture in 20 plants in Illinois, the largest factory being located in Chicago. The men employed in these mattress projects are taken from the Chicago relief rolls, forced to work in the factories and do the work of skilled mechan- ies for 30 cents an hour, 10 cents below the code scale. Workers of Rockford, Kiss re- ported, are building Local 22 of the Furniture Workers Union into a powerful organization to lead the struggle for better conditions in the plants. days before the grand Daily Worker Pionic takes place.

Prospect for election victories are particulay bright in Bicknell and Gas City Ls The possibility of such victo: is seriously threatened, however, ! the failure of the Communist mer! bership to regard the election can paign as a struggle of prime im’ portance to the workers of the Statc, Statfeld declared. Eight thousand nominating sig- natures are necessary to place on the ballot the slate of State can- didates and the four Congressional nominees in addition to numerous county and local tickets. The dead- line for the petitions is October 1, “The campaign committee urges that every Party member, every unit and every section in the State start work at once in securing sig- natures on the nominating peti- tions. Unless this is done the Party will not have a ticket in this State,” Statfeld warned. He pointed to the failure to ar- range meetings at which candi- dates can present the Communist election platform as another serivus shortcoming in the campaign. “This is especially true,” he de- clared, “in the Indianapolis section, where there has been police torror egainst the Party in the past few weeks. Instead of the candidatcs of the Party coming to the fore- iront and proving themselves the real leaders of the working class, they have hesitated. This must ba corrected if we expect the workers to support the Party.” Statfeld also urged speed in the raising of campaign funds and in the distribution of literature. The latter he pointed out, is an in- valuable aid in collecting nominat- ing signatures. Classified —— : LARGE sunny room facing park. Also small room.
