S. Congress Against War and Fascism by farm organizations in the Middle and North Western) States. This was promised Satur- | day by Henry Puro, executive sec- retary of the United Farmers’ League. “We will also have large delega- | tions from the East and South,”; Puro continued. “A large delega- | tion from New Jersey is assured.” As an outstanding leader of the Strongest militant farm organiza~ tion, Puro's estimate of the response of the ruined farmers and share! eroppers to the congress call is con- sidered very reliable. Credentials continue to pour into the office of the Chicago Arrange- | ments Committee at 185 N. Wabash Ave. On Friday five Negro social or- ganizations sent in word they had elected delegates. Cigar Makers | Local No. 14 of the A. F. of L. also sent word of the sending of a del- egation. Auto Tour in Iowa DES MOINES, Iowa, Sept. 11.— An automobile tour of the State is being made to mobilize delegates for the Second U. 8S. Congress Against War and Fascism in Chi- cago. A number of farm delegates are already expected from drought- Stricken areas. Meeting in New York Tonight NEW YORK.—All delegates from local organizations to the Second U. §.

Proceeds from the meeting will go to the aid the strike of the Southern Textile workers who, in addition to the guns and bombs, are facing starvation and disease brought about by the refusal of relief by government officials. C.P. Calls On Listed Voters To Go to Polls NEW YORK.—Enrolled Commu- nist voters in New York, for the first time in the history of the United States, will be able to par- ticipate in the primaries to be held tomorrow. The New York Election Campaign Committee of the Communist Party stresses the importance of all en- rolled Communist voters participat- ing in the primaries. The enrolled voters. will choose their candidates for City Comptrol- Jer, local judges, members of Con- gress, Assemblyman, State Senators and Aldermen. Those candidates, however, to be voted upon by the voters of the entire state, are not chosen at the primaries, but at the State Convention of the Party con- cerned. The New York State Convention of the Communist Party will j} who seek justice, but I do not want at Lowell, was violation. by the company of their contract with the United Shoe Union. However, un. doubtedly the textile strike great] affected the shoe workers and sen- timent is rising for spread of the strike among the shoe workers. Horace Riviere, U.T.W. organize said today he “would welcome mili- tia if they are sent to protect those them if they are to array them- selves with the hired guards who have been shooting and battering with clubs those following our pro- gram for industrial betterment. Every textile worker knows that the troops are being called out to smash picketing and as a strike- breaking effort.” “Weeded Out Radicals” “My lieutenants have used good judgment,” he said, “They have discouraged disorder. They have weeded radicals out of their ranks. I went into Saylesville last night. Within three minutes I had broke up & gang of hoodlums who con- sidered the occasion a holiday and who were not only creating a dis- turbance, but were interfering with our picket line: The armed forces, the govern- ment, the mill owners and the U.T.W. leaders have a common line to discourage mass picketing and dampen the militancy of the strik- ers, which has made the strike ef- fective. The National Guards are already on duty around the mills of Lewis- ton, Me. Picketing has been pro- hibited. In centers where the guard are out virtual martial law reigns, the civil rights of the strikers hav- ing been abolished. Five companies of guards are in Lewiston. Two companies are out in Danielson, Conn., and a regiment is held ready near Saylesville, R. I. (Special to the Daily Worker) BOSTON, Mass.

This strik- er, Louis Servki, is in the Notre Dame Hospital at Central Falls and is not expected to live. An- other striker was shot in the back. Several others were seriously in- jured by gunshot wounds from dep- uties’ guns. A state trooper, Carl Carroll, is on the injured list. Many Children Injured A number of children living in the neighborhood were wounded by state troopers’ charges, Robert and Roland Blais two-year-old twins, are in a serious condition after be- ing rendered unconscious by tear- gas bombs. A score more were hurt, including ten-year-old Charles Risk, Jr. son of Judge Charles Risk of Central Falls, who was badly trampled in the charge of state troopers and deputies. A num- ber were wounded by ferocious clubbing of state police and depu- ties. Miss Anna Hayden was one of a number of women injured by tear gas and clubs. At Danielson, Conn., fifteen were wounded and three State Troopers injured when several thousand: workers picketed the mills. ‘ Army of N. ¥. Thugs The army of New York thugs who have been deputized, the State Troopers of New England States and i the local police and Legionaires} have been powerless so far to stop mass picketing. At Danielson several thousand mass pickets were dispersed only after a severe fight in which much tear gas was hurled. This fight took place in front of the Powdrell and Alexander Curtain plant. Sympathy Strike Feeling The sentiment of the workers in other industries for a general sympathy strike has grown much stronger in the last twenty four hours as a result of the violent ter- ror used by State and Local Gov- ernments against the strikers. The sympathy walk-out actually began in Lowell when 400 shoe workers in Register at Union Office, 131 W. 28th St., for lowered rates: $13 a week; $8 for four deys; $6.50 for three; $4.50 for two, and $2.50 for one full day.

Truck driv- ers and longshoremen are discussing the situation in view of the fact they do not desire to handle textiles made by scabs. The Boston Herald news story this morning contains the following significant sentence: “The danger of ‘rank and file’ workers in other industries forcing an ‘outlaw’ gen- eral strike of the more radical ele- ments in orgenized Iabor became apparent as the day ended.” City Aids in Terror The city of Boston aided yester- day’s terror by lending the North: Dighton mill owners 109 police} night sticks with which to arm Cars leave 10:30 A, M. daily from 2700 Bronx Park Fest (Allerton Ave. subway on White Plains line).

Mass Organizations Hasten to Support Of Textile Strike W. T. R., Veterans and) L.S.N.R. Call for Aid Committees NEW YORK.—Wide sections of the Amezican working class are mobilizing solidarity actions to aid| the textile strikers in every way possible, reports coming in from many sections of the country indi-| cate. The vital question of relief is! taken up in a call issued by the na- tional office of the Workers Inter- national Relief, 870 Broadway, Y., which calls upon the textile workers and all workers and sym- pathizers, to unite for action to| provide food and clothing for the striking textile workers. The League of Struggle for Negro Rights hails the strike and urges| every Negro worker and strike sym- | pathizer to give the strike the full- | est support, and points out that the! fight for equal rights and for the} end of the special Jim Czow exploi- tation of the Negro workers in the) mills will greatly strengthen the} fight of all the textile workers. Calling upon all ex-servicemen to give active aid to the textile strikers, the National Executive Committee | of the Workers Ex-Servicemen’s League yesterday issued a message to all its members which read in part: “The same class of bankers and bosses that now seek to maintain its swollen profits at the expense of the misery and blood of the tex- tile workers, is the same class that | has ordered its servants in Wash-| ington to deny the ex-servicemen their back-wages, known as the “Bonus,” and to cut down the al- ready miserable starvation allow- ances to disabled and aged veterans, in order to maintain profits for Wall Street.” were walking out yesterday. The shut down is being completed. The shut down is over 90 per cent com- plete, and over 200,000 are striking. Governor Green of Rhode Island, in a radio address last night, praised the murderous work of state troopers in attacking strike pickets. He attacked the the Communists. The walkout began in Lawrence when five spinners of the Lawrence Woolen Mills walked out and are now picketing the mill. The Fitchburg City Council has “appointed” 46 more deputies to pre- vent picketing. Fifty policemen and deputies were already guazding mills there. In such towns as Walpole, American Legionnaires are being deputized The strike was spreading yester- day in Maine, so far weakest point in the walk out. In Augusta only six of 1,200 in the Edwards Company worked yesterday. Four were ar- rested in mass picketing at Nashua, N. H. Several thousand aftended the Burlak meeting in Fall River, where every mill is shut down, (Special to the Daily Worker) FALL RIVER, Mass., Sept. 11.— Hundreds of workers bought the “Daily” in the streets here today.

Eledenkapp will speak in Grand Italy Hali, 109 Oak St., Lawrence, at 7.30 tomorrow and in New Bed- ford on Thursday. Catalan Mass Protest Forces State to Act BARCELONA, Sept. 11—The San Isidro Agricultural Institute has been closed by the Catalan govern- ment in answer to mass protest against the reactionary activities cf the organization. The Institute organized the land- owne:s’ demonstration at Madrid Saturd which demanded troops to suspend the Catalan land law. The law offers peasants a chance to acquire land they work after eighteen years. N,| ately organizing a I. L. D. Offers Unity in Defense of Mill Strike NEW YORK.—In speedy response to the reports of mass killings, shooting and arrests of striking textile workers, the International Labor Defense, through its National Office has placed its full sources at the disposal of the strik- ing members of the United Textile Workers Union, and offered to co- operate with the union in immedi- country-wide campaign of protest at government and employer terrorism against the strikers. “The International Labor De- fense,” reads the wire sent by act- ing National Secretary Anna Da- mon to Francis Gorman, head of the U. T. W. strike committee, “‘yith a membership of 200,000 and affiliates over the entire coun- try offers the fullest support and cooperation in defense of all ar- rested textile strikers in a nation- wide mass campaign of protest against the bloody terror now un- leashed against the strikers.” Continuing, the I. L. D. wire offers to cooperate in a campaign to ar- rest and prosecute all responsible for the killing of the strikers, pro- posing that a defense committee be established with which the I, L. D. will immediately cooperate. The telegram proposes that such | a committee start to work at once to mobilize all necessary legal defense, raise funds and mobilize mass pro- tests of the entire working popu- | lation against the wanton killings of textile strikers by government troops and police. An offer to meet at once with any group or representative from the United Textile Workers Union strike committee is made in the wire California Fishermen Declare A Stoppage Against Racketeering SAN PEDRO, Sept. 8 (By Mail). Taking the initiative against a racketeering organization called the Monterey Sardine Industries, the Fishermen and Cannery Workers Industrial Union and the Fisher- men’s Oooperative Association (in- dependent boat owners) have called a stoppage of fishing in their boats now in the Monterey waters. This action is a step toward a coast-wide strike of sardine fish- ermen, unless the canneries and the Regional Labor Boards elim- inate this new association, which has muscled in to impose a 21% per cent tax on all sardine catches under the pretense of stabilizing the industry. The racketeering as- sociation is headed by a deputy sheriff named Crevello, who or- ganized the vigilantes there during the maritime strike, and an attor- ney named Campbell. Fire Destroys Homes of Japanese Workers Eleven Strikers Jailed Pickets massed at the Burlington Mills and only 12 strike-breakers were able to get through the lines. Following the picketing yesterday, two additional companies of the National Guard were dispatched to the area. Eleven strikers were arrested by the military and charged with “forcible trespass.” In Graham, where it was reported that the strikers had returned, only a handful is working. The mill owners in that town are at- tempting to make it appear that the mills are running by having a few strike-breakers operate the looms without warps. The noise of the running looms did not attract any of the strikers to report to work when the whistle blew this morning. A mill in Belmont which opened yesterday was stopped by a flying squadron. Not a wheel is turning in the plant. Pickets at Cannon Mills Pickets were on hand at the Cannon Mills at Kannapolis yes- terday. This morning hundreds of troops and guards with rifles were patrolling around the high wire fences which surround this largest towel-manufacturing establishment in America. The pickets came from {Mooresville and Salisbury, and | joined the Kannapolis workers in front of the mills, despite the ‘threatened terror. At High Point workers of the Knitting Rooms of Melrose and the Amos and Slane Hosiery Mills con- tinued their strike. | At Danville, where the workers voted for the strike over the head of Roxie Dodson, local president of the U. T, W, A., a meeting was held yesterday at which representatives of the National Textile Workers Union spoke and proposed that a united front be formed and that one strike under the leadership of one| joint strike committee be carried on. C. M. Fox, State chairman of the North Carolina strike committee, de- | | clared that he was for the unity of the two unions, called for mass | picketing and promised to organize flying squads to pull out additional mills. Fox Changes His Mind After the meeting ajourned, how- ever, Fox changed his mind. He said | the question of unity would have to ‘be taken up with Gorman, He or- | dered only three pickets in front of jeach mill. This morning when ‘pickets came to the Danville Mills, | Roxie Dodson made a tour of the strike front in a car and told the pickets to go away from the mill. The Danville local had also voted to send telegrams to other locals in North Carolina asking them to sup- port the fight in that city by send- ing fiying squadrons and pickets to ‘the mills. President Dodson stopped | the dispatching of these messages. Paul Crouch, District Organizer of the Communist Party, announced today that a series of mass meetings to support the strike will be held during the week under the auspices of the Party in the North Carolina textile region. Communist speakers will address the strikers in Durham, Charlotte and Chapel Hill.

F. of L, president, and those of the Executive Council. Hitting particularly at the view- point of the reactionary officialdem on sympathy strikes, one of the resolutions demands that the A. F. of L. convention ‘go on record as supporting sympathy strikes to aid the cause of any workers’ struggles.” The resolutions on sympathy strikes and against company union- ism follow: Repudiating A. F. of L. Reactionary OM- cials' Stand om Sympathy Strike WHEREAS: Sympathy strikes and gen- eral strikes gre the highest expression of the workers and the most powerful weapon. the workers have to win thelr demands, and WEREAS: Such struggles are the means of compelling the employers to grant the demands of the strikers, and f WHEREAE: Contrary to the press and the statements of William Green, history has shown that general strike movements can force concessions from the employers, as for example, the great general stri for the eight-hour day waged in 1886, which resulted in winning shorter hours for thousands of workers and placed the young A. F. of L. on a firm foundation, and the general strike in Cuba in 1933 which resulted in overthrowing the mur- derous regime of Machado and achieved wage increases and the right of unions to exist, and WHEREAS: The Seattle General Strike of 1919 and the general strike in San Francisco were not lost but were broken by the reactionary labor officials, who sur- rendered and sold out to the employers; and could have been won if they had been conducted under rank and file con- trol, and WHEREAS: Reactionary officials of the A. F. of L. end of various Internationals have declared that sympathy strikes can- not be sanetioned by the A. F. of-L. and that “violation of agreements” for this purpose will not be approved and that sympathy strikes are against the govern- ment, and WHEREAS: § ‘The propaganda of the “sacredness of the union agreement” serves only to divide the forces of the workers and to destroy their fighting strength, and WHEREAS: The reactionary officials of the A. F. of L. and the International Unions have used all means to hamper sympathy strikes and to stop the workers from supporting the struggle of their fel- low workers to the extent of compelling ene local to scab on another in the same industry as, for example, J. P, Ryan hes done in strangling @ general strike in the marine industry, Berry in the case of | the Printing Pressmen, and Tobin of the| Teamsters in the case of the Philadelphia | drivers, and as in Toledo and Minneapolis by trickery and collaboration with the government, he it therefore RESOLVED: That... 80 on record as supporting sympat! es to aid the cause of any workers’ strugg! the local unions repudiate the Executive Council and the Inter: tional officials and uphold their right to go on sympathy strikes or engage in any position taken by the reactionary officials. | Own Cheice N WHEREAS: Company ynions have lomg } been instruments of the employers to pre- vent real union organization, te place the workers at the complete mercy of the em- ployers, to destroy any resistance to the conditions imposed upen them and te {so- lete the workers from the organized Inbor movement, and WHEREAS: Since the advent of the N. R.A,, the number of workers driven into company unions haye reached the alarm- ing total of 5,000,000, and WHEREAS: Reactionary leaders of the A. F. of L. working closely with the N.R.A. are mainly responsible for the growth of company unions due to their approval of codes, such as the auto code, which eon- tains a merit clause nullifying the closed shop; the steel code, which recognizes representatives from company unions, and due to their compliance with the no strike policy of the N.R.A. and their aid to the National Labor Board in breaking strikes, which resulted in either strengthening ex- isting company unions or foisting new ones on the workers, and sion of the National Labor Board in add- ing more corporation officials in whose industries company unions now exist shows the aim of the government to be to force company unions on the workers wherever Possible, and WHEREAS: Only through the organiza- tion of powerful unions by the workers, controlled and led by the rank and file, ean the workers gain improvements in their conditions and win their struggles, be it therefore REGOLVED: That the. to take immediate st workers in the U. S. agi pledge ouse th inst the menace of company-controlled unions, against the N.R.A. and government boards which seek control over the activities of existing unions, against all other causes which are responsible for the growth of company unions, and to wage a fight for the rights of the workers to organize into rank and file controlled unions of their own choice, to choose their own representatives, to strike and picket, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: That the... edges to support the workers in unions who are secking to de- stroy these instruments of the employers, which drive down their wages and living standards.
