Plan N. Y. Downtown Campaign NEW YORK.—Plans for the Com- munist Party election campaign were discussed and an organiza- tional basis laid at a recent meet- ing at the Downtown Workers Club of representatives from Lower Man- hattan branches of ten mass organ- organizations, the Zukunft, Cli- Grand, East Side and Italian Work- | @rs Clubs, the I. W. O., Red Sparks, the workers’ committees of Unem- Ployed Locals 2 and 3, and various units of the Communist Party. Reports from delegates showed how the campaign is already well under way for the majority of these organizations and Comrade Schul- man, chairman of the meeting, gave @ rousing picture of Communist Party candidates now engaging in the day-to-day struggle of the relief stations and at open-air meet- ings. However, it was evident that much remains to be done in cen- trally organizing the campaign in the four assembly and two sena- torial districts of the Lower East Side. Organizational Plans ribution of Party platforms on @ mass basis greater than ever be- fore was urged on the delegates The necessity for the spreading of banners, signs and placards over the districts, across streets, and even on the fire escape was emphasized. It was also decided that other organizations, Such as social clubs and non-po- litical groups, must be activized, banquets for the raising of funds and debates with candidates of other parties arranged. Sub-committees for each assembly district were formed, with their first task the establishing of local head- quarters for each district, to be open day and night.

They don’t pay any attention to him. We won't get anything out of the strike.” Workers Are Not Cowed While police and armed guards kept watchful eye around the mill, a large section of the 200,000 New England strikers trooped back to work, their strike broken by Gor- man and the other U.

They walked slowly up and down passed the drawn bay- onets of guardsmen, They were not cowed or beaten. They were proud of the battle they had put up during the previous night. They walked with a new confidence in their tread. The Woonsocket battle had opened up to them vistas of the great forces of the working class which they had used and would use again even more effectively. The strikers are better organized with a bigger and stronger union. They were forced back into the mills because they were not able in so short a time to develop their own organized rank and file leadership. Another sellout is chaked up by the Gorman-MacMahon leadership of the U.T.W.—another strike has beeen broken with the help of | President Roosevelt.

Discrimination at Pawtucket (Special to the Daily Worker) PAWTUCKET, R, I, Sept. 24,_ The strike is over in the Paw- tucket district, and all large mills are back at Work. These include the Sayles, Coates, Hope, Webbing, Lebanon, Conrad, Brown, Royal and Acme. A few opened some de- partments only. The workers got no concessions. Now the mill owners are preparing to speed pro- duction under the old conditions. At Sayles mill 25 were not taken back today and discrimination may be expected. (Special to the Daily Worker) CHICOPEE FALLS, Mass., Sept. 24. — Seven hundred employes of the Johnson and Johnson mill have voted unanimously to con- tinue the strike until the original demands are met. (Special to the Daily Worker) ROCKVILLE, Conn,, Sept. 24. — The Stevens mill opened this morning. Only a few workers were taken back. Militants were dis- criminated against. All workers re- belled against this discrimination and the sellout. The sentiment is overwhelmingly for a strike tonight.

GORMAN Francis J, Gorman, the Executive Council of the U. T. W., William een and other A. F. of L. officials are hailing the strikebreaking re- port of the Winant Board and their Subsequent sellout as an “over- whelming victory” of “sweeping character.” But the hard-boiled textile magnates and their press ridicule each claim made by Mr. Gorman and his associates. The New York Times, in an edi- torial yesterday, noted that the N. T. W. leaders “have accepted the report with an almost suspicious enthusizsm and _ alacrity.” And Ernest N. Hood, President of the National Cotton Manufacturers’ As- sociation, disclosed to the New York Herald-Tribune that “the net gain, to Northern workers at least, through the textile strike was a three weeks’ vacation without pay.” The “recognition” of the union, that the U. T. W. officials boast of, is scoffed at by Hood, who as- serts that the Winant Board speci- fically declined to recognize the U. T. W. as representing all textile labor. In other words, this demand of the “mill strike (ended) on terms set by the Roosevelt Board,” as the N, Y, Herald Tribune head- line read. What about the other demands of the strikers which Mr. Gorman claims the report grants to the tex- tile workers? The New York World- Telegram editorialized on Sept. 2 that “This report does not grant the strikers’ demands.” No Wage Or Hour Gains Specifically on the question of wages and hours, George H. Sloan, chairman of the Cotton Textile Code Authority, emphasized the point that “It would appear that the Winant Board makes no at- tempt to pass upon the demands of the strike committee for changes in hours and wages, but has recom- mended further study of these sub- jects by government agencies.” The strikers know from their past ex- periences that the “further study” will be used to cut wages and ex- tend the stretchout system. The reactionary New York Sun pointed out that “Not a single issue in the strike has been settled by the Arbitration Board.” It leaves “all the major problems of the strike to two more boards which are yet to be created.” But perhaps the most striking ‘n- diciment of the false claims of the BOSSES AND PRESS HAVE A LAUGH OVER ‘VICTORY’ rank and file that stood the brunt phasis on the part of the leaders who brought them into it.” | The Times Laughs, Too The editorial in the Times also | rips Mr. Gorman’s statement to | pieces. It says, in part: “In accepting the Winant report | and ordering the textile strikers to return immediately to work, the labor leaders have acted wisely. They seem, indeed, to have ac- cepted the report with an almost suspicious enthusiasm and alacrity. | The ‘sweeping character’ of the | ‘overwhelming victory’ which Mr. | Gorman and his associates find in | its recommendations is not ap- parent to an impartial reader.

Each of these takes up every false claim by Mr, Gorman, and reveals how untrue and hollow his bally- hoo really is. The Tribune's edi- torial is entitled “The Textile Union Victory” and reads as fol- lows: What the Tribune Says “One cannot help being struck by the earnestness and re-emphasis with which Mr. Green, Mr, Gorman and the executive council of the textile union assure the striking workers that what they have won is a great victory. This fact might otherwise have escaped the notice of some of them. The victory takes the shape of a report telling the strikers that they are the employees a ‘sick’ industry; that, although they are more poorly paid than the workers of any other major indus- try, available data give little hope of any increase in their earnings, and that the issue of the ‘streteh- out’? (which is merely the textile industry's form of technological un- employment; is wrapped in so many complexities that no solution is at present apparent, though a new board may perhaps be able to work out something that would prove helpful in the matter. On those factors, in other words, fundamen- tal to the economic well-being of the individual cotton textile worker, the report finds that little can be Bronx subways and siop at Simpson St. Station or Lexington local and stop at Hunts Point.
