A similar number on the Eastern Division are due to get *the sack. All branch roads are lay- ~ing off all maintenance men; this includes such roads as the D. & L. Men with 9 to 12 years’ experience will be forced to go on relief. As ‘@ result of such a policy many .awrecks are expected. On the first of the year 100 more men expect to be laid off until spring on the Eastern Region on rail trains (in- ~ volved in laying of track). Conditions of work are terrible. “We get about $12 for four days “work. We must pay 25 cents a meal which at breakfast consists of pan- cakes and gravy, a thin slice of “ham or sausage.

Superinten- dent Hayden, now deceased, pro- stating he must have been overlook- ed but was willing to make amends. Moore then showed his despicable character by not only quitting his organization work but also turned| the membership of the union over to the company. Many were fired, others transferred and some were visited at their homes and threat- ened with dismissal if they didn’t quit their union. Moore was satisfied with his cler- ical job but not for long. After the company was sure that the dangers of a messenger union was over, Moore was demoted back to a mes- senger. He is still plodding the streets. However, they paid him about two schedules higher than the rest, of the messengers in his office. For this bribe of higher schedules, Moore acted as stool pigeon time and time again. Each time the rates of pay were cut in his office, Louie reported the “kickers’ who were taken care of. He also passed among the messengers in the wardrobes and told the boys who were much younger than he that the best thing to do is to take the cuts and not to do anything about it. Louie Moore, the perennial stool pigeon, is getting old.

Let us follow the activities of the above named quintet of “public pro- | tectors” on the morning of Dec. 15, 1934. The Second Ave. line, where I am employed, shuts down for about four hours (12:30 to 4:30 a.m.) | at night. An agent sitting in a closed and darkened station, with no trains in operation, is apt to doze. Especially in view of the fact that he is required to work from 7 p.m. to 7 am. In the eyes of In- spector Brennan a doze under these conditions is a heinous offense against LR.T. “discipline.” It is 3 am. The thugs are busy rolling the passengers, beating them up, ete. Our aforementioned three bosses with their armed “heroes” are boarding a train at the 129th St. terminal of the Second Ave. line. Not for the purpose of protecting the passengers against loss or in- jury as you may suppose, but for the Sole purpose of spying upon and victimizing any agent that may have succumbed to nature and taken @ nap.

Seven men were charged with being asleep and face severe penalties.

Obviously we can expect little worthwhile information from the Hearst, News, Mirror and other trashy publications. They are de- cidedly on the side of big profits. In revolutionary times, revolu- tionary measures must be taken. Let the gentlemen of the United States Chamber of Commerce read haven't seen this suggestion before in the Daily Worker, or any other workers’ publication of which I am an ardent reader. The chairman of a mass meet- ing ‘should instruct the audience at the end of the meeting to leave the hall in an orderly way, as class- conscious proletarians should. The manner in which comrades leave meetings is deplorable. A COMRADE. Andy Furuseth Hits Marine Federation By a Marine Worker Correspondent PORTLAND, Ore.—Portland is at last assuming the proportions of a major port. Some weeks back, none other than the Grand Old Man of the Sea, Andrew Furuseth was in town to impart some of his knowledge (of strike breaking) to} the seamen. For half an hour he told the sea- men of conditions in the old days when he was a boy, and how HE bettered them by having Congress pass the Seamen’s Act (which was never enforced since its inception). But, the main point of his talk Hose is mn Heads Battle Over Spoils By a R.R. Worker it MORRIS PARK, L. I.— “When thieves fall out, honest men get their due.” This is an old saying that fits the present Morris Park situation. Only recently a gentleman by the name of Davis arrived from Al- toona to pep up the Company Union outfit in Morris Park. Since the Morris Park “Brotherhood” was Staggering on {ts last legs, this spe- cialist was called in to remedy the situation. However, “brother” Davis put up a stiff demand for his ser- vices. All he wanted was 50 per to Holcombe’s, local relief incum- bent, office to demand these winter clothes which they charge the re- lief heads with having stored away in warehouses and refusing to issue. The local Waterfront Unemploy- ment Council is gathering seamen to rally a second time for the coats. A campaign is being carried on to have the relief heads removed or to force them to improve the quality of the food at the project and to issue the desired winter garments. That the shore workers are be- ginning to realize the seriousness of their own economic condition and see the necessity for immediate action is evidenced by the fact that they are now compelling their lead- ers to take any and all steps to force relief authorities to recognize their plight. The Waterfront Unem- ployment Council greeted these militant workers and offered them cooperation. At an open air meeting held at Broadway and Thames Streets dur- ing the week seamen carried plac- ards denouncing the relief officials and demanding that they issue heavy winter clothing. Placards also denounced the $57.50 sell-out agreement negotiated for the sea- men by self-appointed I.S.U. heads. Seamen rallied to these meetings, and it is expected that in the com- thus decreasing unemployment, and raising the morale of the people.” N EDITORIAL in Mussolini's “Popolo d'Italia,” of Milan, holds forth along this line as fol- lows: “The exodus of women from the field of labor doubtless would have economic repercussions in many families, but a legion of men would lift humiliated heads and a hundred times more new families would enter the national life.” mee we USSOLINI wants to “solve” the problem of unemployment by taking jobs away from one section of the population, and giving them to another. Mathematically, of course, if this were done, the sum total of all employed would not be increased. But fascist philosophy is a thing apart. Once women lose their jobs, Mussolini tells the men, the men can lift “humiliated” heads. The fact that the same poverty remains, that there will be “economic repercussions,” concerns him not. at all. The population would be increased. And Mussolini would have more raw material to convert into bleeding meat for his war machine. This is the promise fascism holds for women. ek een ing week the coats will be issued.
