Move For United Front The move for a united front in| preparation for a joint strike is the | most important part of the strike preparations. Every marine union has been approached by the M.W. LU. for a united front. Joint strike preparation committees are being formed in all ports. The New York Committee includes the representa- tives of the M.W.L.U., the American Radio Telegraphist Association and the unorganized. Although the offi- cials of the I1S.U., LL.A. and other unions have sabotaged the united front proposals, rank and file mem- bers of these unions, speaking at meetings called by the M.W.LU. have pledged to carry on a fight to bring their organizations into the Joint Committees. During the past| few days the action of the workers | have forced the I.S.U. leaders to re- | frain from attacking the M.W.LU.| and on Friday night the seamen of | New York refused to allow the 18.U.| speakers to continue their mass} meeting when they refused to state} their stand on the United Front. ‘The shipowners’ fear of the grow- ing strike movement is best reflected in the extreme politeness with which | the Administrator of the Marine| Division of the N.R.A. greeted the small delegation of seamen who were elected to warn the government that thousands of the marine workers) demanded representation of the M.W.1.U. at all meetings arranged to discuss the demands of the work- ers and the pending strike. This politeness and “interest” in the de- mands of the workers and assur- ances of a “square deal” did not serve, however, to hide the fact that already the government, through the N.R.A., is working hand in fist with the shipowners and labor fak- ers, to prevent a strike. Cites Bosses’ Alliance After first denying that a “code was even being considered” Mr. Pebles the Administrator, then ad- mitted that steps might be taken to Te-open the question of a code and stated by inference that of course this would mean a number of hear- ings, considerable time spent, and of course delay in strike action if reliance upon the N.R.A. to win en- forcement of their demands. Mr.) Pebles’ statement that he felt cer-| tain the shipowners would negotiate the demands “but were unable to determine who the representative of the workers were” show that the) shipowners hope to prevent action) for the demands of the workers by carrying through an “election” to determine the representatives of the ope disect alliance of the ship-; ‘out, and indicate their willingness ‘to call off the pending strike if ‘arbitration is granted!” somes Back M.W.LU. Stand Ryan has done his duty for the | shipowners, and the I. S. U. fakers are ready to answer the call of their masters. But the day is far from saved from the shipowners. They forget that President Roosevelt suc- ceeded in delaying the strike on the Pacific while the I. L. A. fakers still had control. But a short time later the mass revolt of the rank and file of the I. L. A, forced the great West Coast strike! The shipowners for- get, too, that among the seamen they are not dealing with Mr. Ryan, or Mr. Axtel, Olander and company, but that thousands of | seamen have indorsed the stand of the Marine Workers’ Indus- trial Union—no delays, no arbi- tration! Grant our demands by October 8 or we strike! These efforts to prevent the struggle of the seamen and lon; shoremen for their just demands must be defeated. The rank and | file of the I. L. A. should demand | an end to the truce, an answer to their demands not later than Oct. 8. In their local meetings now they | should vote for strike action jointly | | with ihe seamen on this date if /headlines for his anti-red inter- their demands are not met. sine | removal of Ryan and his machine and the placing of power in the | hands of elected rank and file strike committees is one of the main steps the longshoremen must | take to win their demands. Fight Against Misleaders | Axtel, Olander, Brown, ure berg and company of the I. 8. U. must not be given an opportunity to repeat their strikebreaking deeds of the West Coast! In the past | week these gentlemen have refused to indorse a united strike! Their | “exemption” from the strike of a large number of companies paying | below the strike demands makes their strike call a joke! They con- | tinue to oppose a centralized ship- | ping bureau, but endorse a govern- ment-controlled Fink Hall! They | already approve of Ryan’s sell-out, proving that they do no: want to | fight for the seamen’s demands | but want to submit them to arbi- tration! These facts must convince every honest seaman that these gentie- | men are agents of the shipowners! | Every seaman must reelize NOW | that submission to “arbitration” or, | a strike where the ranks of the | workers are divided will result in defeat. Victory awaits the seamen | if they continue their preparations | for joint action with the longshore- | men on Oct. 8 Every ship must | Owners, government and labor fak- organize Action Committees and | | men’s Union, in all ports and locals, | all | elect rank and file committees and jsend their delega'es to the Joint ship of the A. F. of L. has broken into the open, This is the main conclusion to be drawn from the internecine war in the Building Trades Department Convention which so far has resulted in a re- fusal to reinstate the Carpenter, Electrical Workers and Bricklayers Unions with the announcement of withdrawal as as result of this rul- ing by the Teamsters (truck driv- | ers), Operating Engineers, Marble | Workers and Tile Setters and the threatened secession of the Hod Carriers and Building Laborers. Rift Result of Crisis The open rift in the official fam- ily of the Building Trades Depart- | ment is the reflection of a fact long known but not discussed, except in| whispers in official union labor) circles. It is the more or less in-| evitable result of the five-year) crisis which has been felt most keenly in building and construction | and practically destroyed this in- dustry—once the greatest consumer of steel and iron products—bringing mass unemployment to building and construction workers which official estimates put as high as 75 per cent. Something like the popular desire to get rid of President Hoover re- sulting in the Roosevelt landslide is going on in the building trades. Face Split McDonough, the present head, faces bitter opposition. Feeling fairly | sure that the three unions seeking reinstatement would muster all their forces agains him, McDonough simply ruled their applications out of order. Now the department confronts a split which would cut it in about two equal halves. This breach can be healed only on the basis of agreement on the personnel | for elective official positions in the | department, in the Executive Coun- jell of the A, F. of L. itself and |agreement on the position to be| | taken on the issue considered by officialdom to be the central ques- | tion in the coming convention, i.e., | how to vote on the proposal to en- large the Executive Council. The latter proposal, everyone under- stands, contains the main issue of changing structure of the A. F. of L. and its affiliated unions from the craft form to the John L. Lewis brand of industrial unionism. Daniel Tobin, president of the teamsters union, either because he is alarmed by the two Minneapolis strikes, and the rank and file char- acter of the desperate battles in spite of the Trotzkyite leadership, by the enthusiasm with which the 'Frisco Teamsters Union kicked | over the Michael Casey leadership in the general strike issue, and the growing militancy of the member- ship of his union generally, or else because he has been picked because of his Irish background, his recent |trip to Europe and the atmosphere of profound and specialized knowl- edge of labor problems he has be- gun to exude recently, to take the lead in the anti-red drive and or- amze be Green another offi- cial wi f this employer inspired, fascist Miowitated and government supported movement, is getting the views. The unemployment situation has brought forth Communism and radicalism in various forms. For instance, in a meeting of 500 men, 200 of whom were out of work, the | majority would vote for a radical program if it offered some outlook for work. This is the danger that organized labor must guard against today.” strike Oct. 8. A solid front must be organized in every port. This !can be done by the members of the |M. W. I.

BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 30.—Be- tween four and five hundred sea- ;men and longshoremen enthusi- |astically approved the program of united action of seamen and long- shoremen presented by Roy Hud- son, national secretary of the Ma- rine Workers Industrial Union, at a@ meeting held here on Thursday. This meeting elected three dele- gates from Baltimore for the M. |W. I. U. delegation to Washington | that presented the demands of the union to the N, R. A. Administra- tion on the following day. A United Front Strike Commit- tee, composed of 29 seamen, was| elected here Wednesday at a meet- | ing of organized and non-union | seamen held at the Marine Workers | Industrial Union Hall, 720 South | This strike call of the |M. W. I. U. calling for joint ac- tion of all seamen regardless of af- filiation was endorsed by the meet ing. Set Up Action Committees The joint strike committee met on Thursday and immediately went into action, All necessary sub-com- mittees for the organization of the men on the ships and beach, pick~- eting, finance, etc, were set up. Meetings of seamen and longshore- men are held here daily. 400 Ship “ied Dock Wasbors Approve United Action Call By Roy Hudson in Baltimore The U. F. 8. C. issued a bulletin calling on longshoremen and sea- men for joint strike action. Over 500 strike pledge cards have already been signed, according to the re- port of the committee. The senti- ment on the ships is very strong for a united strike with the long- shoremen, the report states. Seamen Meet in Boston (Special to the Daily Worker) BOSTON, Mass., Sept 30.—A large united front meeting of seamen was held here on two hours’ notice on Friday night. Every seaman on the beach, including members of the International Seamen's Union, jammed the Marine Workers In- dustrial Union Hall to listen to speakers from the M. W. I. U., the American Radio Telegraphers’ As- sociation. An I. 8, U. delegate, speaking un- officially, announced that if he does not receive the sanction of the In- ternational, he will join the united front despite any refusal. Enthusiastic seamen applauded mention of the Daily Worker. Lam- bert, of the M. W. I. U., reported for the preparations committee. Growing ferment here points cer- tainly to a longshore strike. LL.A.

U. leaders issued their strike call to the sea- men, Friday night was the first real mass meeting they called. Simul- taneously the M. W. I. U. was hold- ing an open air meeting when more than than 200 seamen voted to at- tend the I. S. U. in a body. They | clected a member of the J. 8. P. C. to ask for the floor and uige the I. S.

U, officials refused to take any practical steps to establish unity of action. When the J. S. P. C. speaker asked for the floor, he was told that “this is our hall and nobody else speaks here.” He sent up a written request for the floor to the chair- man. To this the chairman an- nounced that, “The Dues Commit- tee refused the floor. Anything from the J. S. P. C. must come in writing by mail to the I. 8. U.” Members March Out While at the first refusal the members of the M. W. I. U. suc- ceeded in holding the indignant seamen back from leaving the hall, at this time the seamen could not restrain themselves any longer. Shouting in unison, “We demand a united front,” they all marched out to a man. A speakers’ stand was set up across the street and a meeting, twice the size, was held under the auspices of the J. S. P. C. The meeting voted to continue the ef- forts to get the I. 3. U. into the united front by an “official letter” to be followed up with a delegation. Rank and file members of the I. S. U. pledged to raise the issue of unity of action from the floor of their membership meeting Mon- day. The seriousness of the strike sit- uation can be well judged by the preparations made by the Standard Oil Company. Although “ex- empted” by the strike call of the I. 8.
