The workers voted to return to work on the basis of an agreement reached late Monday night and concluded Tuesday morning, which includes the following conditions: Recognition of the shop commitiee; that all hiring and firing be done with the consent of the shop com- mittee; that all new workers hired must be members of the Custom Tailoring Workers Industrial Union; the establishing of the five-day eight-hour week and no Saturday work. | The wage scale on piece work was so adjusted in the agreement as to make it possible for the workers to earn the same wages they did before the strike. The agreement provides for the} firing of the three leaders of the| Scabs brought into the shop. The other ten scabs are to appear be- fore the Grievance Board of the union. Their failure to comply with | the decisions of the Board will) prevent their further employment. | The lockout, declared in the slack | Season, was a deliberate attack of the Merchant Tailors Society, 5i1| Fifth Avenue, New York, accord-/} ing to Alexander Hoffman, organizer of the union, to starve out the workers and to completely destroy union conditions in the shops. The lockout was declared when the workers refused to submit to the | introduction of piece work on aj basis which substantially cut their wages from 25 to 30 per cent. The strike is part of the prepara- | tions being made by the union for j a@ general strike in the custom) tailoring industry, for the total and immediate abolition of home work, no Sunday work, a 35-hour week | and no community shops. In preparation for the strike the union has declared stoppages in| many shops, gaining increases of | wages for the workers and forc-) ing the manufacturers to open their | Red Camas | Flays Strong’s Stand on Labor) Raymond “Say s Justice] Made Brooklyn an ‘Injunction Reno’ Before a crowd of 500 at the Young Israel Synagogue of Bor- ough Park, Brooklyn, Tuesday night, Harry Raymond, staff writer of the Daily Worker and Commu- nist candidate for Judge of the Su-| preme Court in the First Judicial District, revealed the basic aims of the capitalist parties and told just | how he would serve the interests | of the workers if elected. Raymond took part in a political symposium in which “Injunction Judge” Selah B. Strong was one of | the speakers, and centered his main | |fire against the Republican, citing |from various of his court decisions |to show Strong’s virulent anti-| labor bias. Strong, who was among | \the first to speak, was followed by | other speakers representing the Re- publican, Democratic, Fusion, So- cialist and Communist parties. | Stung by continuous exposure of | his vicious anti-labor activities, Judge Strong’s speech was of a de- fensive kind. “My opponents have attacked me,” Strong declared, “claiming that I am an enemy of organized labor. But my record in| court shows. that I am a friend of | labor, and that I have ruled, not against labor unions, but against | certain union delegates.” | Asked To Attend Presenting a list of demands in an appeal for organization issued erday the Photographic Wo: Union called on all photographic workers of portrait, commercial and photo-finishing to attend a mass meeting arranged by the union at 8:30 tonight at 11 W. 18th St., third floor. The following demands are pre- sented in the appeal to all studio and plant workers: 1) The return of the recent cuts in salary whether | by the week or piece; 2) Overtime pay at the rate of time and one- half above 40 hours; 3) tion of the Photographic Workers Union and shop committee. “On the eve of the coming Christ- mass season,” the appeal states, “the upon you to close your ranks end make an organized effort to improve working conditions Physicians Circulate Endorsement of Olgin Congress Candidacy A group of Bronx physicians, or- ganized as a non-partisan commit- tee, have circulated an appeal to the voters in the 23rd Congressional District to support the candidacy of M. J. Olgin, Communist nominee. The appeal says in part: “We, the undersigned, profes- sional people living in the 23rd Con- gressional District, the Bronx, New York, have constituted ourselves as a committee to aid the election to Congress of the Communist candi- date, Dr. Moissaye J. Olgin, and we appeal to the voters of this district to vote for him. “We are not a Communist or- ganization, we are not affiliated with any Communist organization. Never- theless, it is our decision to work for Dr. Olgin for the following reasons: “We are professionals. We meet everyday with the needs of the plain people of our district, We know in- timately their hardships, particular- ly now after five years of economic crisis, We know that their inter- ests must be defended in Congress.

This statement was made in con- nection with a release that has been issued to the press by the American Civil Liberties Union, which has been approached by both unions to conduct such an investigation. The N.T.W.LU. charged that the Lovestoneites together with the Joint Council have raised com- plaints about alleged use of gang- ser methods used by the Industrial | Union in order to cover up their | hiring of gorillas and gangsters. The press release of the A.C.L.U. | Photographic Workers Union calls | follows in part: | “Sweeping charges by the Fur- riers’ Joint Council of New York |that the American Civil Liberties | Union had encouraged gangsterism in the fur industry are ‘whollly baseless,’ according to a letter sent this morning by Roger N. Baldwin, director of the A.C.L.U. to Isidor | Cohen, manager of the Joint Coun- | ) cil. | Citizens Inquiry Offered. “The Civil Liberties Union an- swered Mr. Cohen’s statement that the Joint Council had never ‘offi- cially or unofficially’ approached the A.C.L.U. regarding alleged acts |of terrorism in the labor union | fights in the fur market by sub- mitting a copy of a letter received from members of the Joint Council. | The A.C.L.U, also asserted that las; | spring delegations of members of |the Joint Council had come to the | office of the A.CL.U. and had re- quested ‘that an impartial commit- tee go into charges made by them | and issue a public statement’.” Explaining the functions and character of the A. ©. L. U., the release continues: “The Civil Liberties Union plays no favorites. We defend the rights of all without discrimination. Our offer to aid upon request in coun- teracting the long continued viol- ence in the fur industry stands, and under the auspices of a committee of distinguished citizens to whom neither your union nor anyone else could take exception as unfair. “In denying that your union has ‘our membership, if not of your ion officially. They appeared at office several times i for intervention, interviewed our submitted affidevits. our attorneys and They requested us to have an im- Partial comm'‘stee, in whom the public would have confidence, go into the charges made by them} and issue a public statement. Full Investigation Rejected “We agreed to do so if the com- mittee also invéstigated charges previously submitted to us by the Industrial Union. We urged Michael Intrator, one of your mem- bers who Was spokesman for the group, to get the consent of your union to such an investigation. He expressed his doubts, apparently because of our desire to investigate the charges on both sides. He and his group evidently were primarily interested only in our investigat- ing charges brought by your mem- bers. When our proposal for in- vestigating both sides of the con- flict came to nothing, we wrote the Industrial Union under date of September 17th that we had to jabandon the plan, to which they! pressed workers, had assented. “Upon publication of that letter | {by the Industrial Union, we rue) jceived a letter from members of | your Joint Council under date of October. 8th, copy of which we en- close. The writers protest that! jinstead of investigating their charges we ‘entered into negotia- tions with the N. T. W. I. U.! We did nothing of the sort. We already had received charges from that | union, and it was plainly fair only | to deal with both sides. The writ- | ers of that letter are in error in stating that we failed to ‘notify them as individuals or the union 3 an. organization.’ The propcsal | icr the investigation of all charges ;was put before Mr. Intrator in! ‘June. A personal interview with our Mr. Wirin shows that he was doubtful of its acceptance by his group or the union. Mr. Intrator did not further reply.” | Bronx C. P. Will Hold | ‘11th Hour Torch Rally| | A torchlight parade and outdoor rally will climax the election drive jot the Communist Party in the Sec- ond A. D., Bronx, on Monday night, An urgent appeal to all metal and | mechine construction workers to | vote for the candidates of the Com- | . munist Party on election day was made yesterday by Leo Hofbauer, the Party’s nominee for Justice of | ‘he New York Supreme Court in! the First Judicial District | Hofbauer, one of the leaders of the Steel and Metal Workers In- | dustrial Union, has been working in the industry for over 85 yéars. “As a metal and machinery worker,” he stated, “involved in the day to day struggles of the industry, both at the bench and in the or- ganization of the Steel ahd Metal Workers Industrial Union, I appeal | to all metal and machinery workers in the silver and holloware, novelty, display fixture and figure, the wire goods, iron and bronze and allied indus.ries to vote in this year’s election for the only working class party, the Communist Party. “The Communist Party is the only political party that fights for , the demands of the workers, hourly, | daily, weekly, and throughout the | whole year, which fights for all Negro people, native and foreign-born workers, | and is carrying on this fight into the election campaign. “Thousands of workers employed in the above mentioned trades of the metal industry were engaged in strike struggles during the pas! year. As a result of these strikes, most of which were succéssful, the workers received wage increases, in many cases as high’ as fifteen dol- lars per week. “In these strikes the Communists among the strikers and among the members of the S eel and Metal Workers Industrial Union were al- ways in the first ranks. The Com- munists always showed the way to be followed, gave advice and were helpful in getting higher wages, shorter hours and better working conditions for all the workers. “The Conimunist Party proved in deeds and in actions that it fights for the workers all year around. A vote by the workers for the Com- munist candidates means further blows to the bosses.” Russian Group to Hold) An Election Symposium A symposium on the election cam- United Artists. * * * ‘Transatlantic Merry-Go-Round” is now rent at the Rivoll, and “Student Tour,” with Jimmy Durante, has moved into the Mayfair. . * “What Every Woman Knows” is being held over for a second week at the Capi- tol, as is “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage * Patch” at the Paramount. * * * The Cameo Theatre, where Gorki’s “Mother” is playing a limited return én- gagement, is making preparations for the world premiere of “Three Songs About Lenin.” This documentary film is the Soviet cinema's tribute to the great pro- letorian leader.

In two days $900 were raised, The actions of the bosses sup- ported by the police and the courts, Hoffman stated, yesterday, will not stop us from preparing for the gen- | eral strike. Police Commissioner Lewis J.| Valentine, the union was informed yesterday, refused the request of the union for a permit to parade on Fifth Avenue on the grounds that it is “not within the law.” It is perfectly “within the law” for the police, the N.R.A. and sim- ilar organizations, Hoffman said, to parade on Fifth Avenue, but for the workers there is no room “with- in the law.” The union has arranged a dem- onstration for 12:30 Saturday on 53rd St. near Fifth Avenue. All cus- tom tailors and furriers along the Avenue have been invited to at- tend the demonstration, he said. Ben Gold, national secretary- treasurer of the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union, with which the Custom Tailors are ailili- ated, will address a mass meeting of custom tailors at 6:30 Monday evening at the Irving Plaza Mall, on the problems of the industry and the preparations of the general sirike. The union has sent letters, Hoff- man announced, to the Merchant | Tailors Society and to individual) merchant tailors calling for imme- | diate conferences to discuss the abolition of home work and the establishing of union conditions in the shops. ‘This, however, he said, in no way will delay the preparation of the general strike in the industry.

Why not leave plaintiff alone as it de- sires and thereby permit the | pickets to employ themselves at some useful and commendable occupation where they may do a real man’s work and earn a la- | borer’s honest wage?” Raymond showed how Judge| Strong’s open attack upon the) rights of workers to strike and/ picket is the first step toward fas- | cism. Describing his impressions of Nazi Germany through which he passed last year, the Communist candidate pointed out that the de- struction of labor organizations and the murder and jailing of militant working class leaders go hand in hand with attacks upon Jews. Raymond Applauded | After showing how the capitalist | crisis has thrown millions into the streets and ruined hundreds of thousands of small business men | and professionals, Raymond showed how the Communist Party program provided the only concreté way out of the crisis. “I am not a candidate for judi- | cial office as an individual,” Ray- mond said. “I stand on the plat- form of the Communist Party.” He was applauded when, in concluding his speech, he declared, “Should a lawyer for a business corporation apply to me, as judge, for an in- junction against picketing I would hold the attorney in contempt of court.” Following the symposium many in the audience who said that they had previously but a vague knowledge of Communist aims came forward to congratulate Raymond. | | 3 Nominees to Speak | Tonight at Campaign Meeting in Brooklyn An election rally at Graham and ; Metropolitan Avenues, Brooklyn, | Will be addressed tonight by three Communist candidates, Dominick Fliani, candidate for Congressman in the Third District; John Suirba, | candidate for Assemblyman in the | 13th A.
