General Strike Looms A general strike of shirt and boys’ blouse workers involving 30,000 workers in New York, New Jersey,| Pennsylvania and Connecticut, for a 10 per cent wage increase and re- duction of hours from 40 to 36, would be called by the Amalga- mated Clothing Workers of Ameri- ca, Jacob S. Potofsky, national of- ficial of the union, announced yes- | terday. The strike announcement follows the closing of 100 large contracting plants, employing 20,000 workers, until the large manufacturers pay a higher price to the contractors. Strike action, considered almost certain by Alex Cohen, Manager of the New York Shirt Makers’ Joint Board, will turn the lockout in the contracting shops into a strike and will also bring out workers of the so-called inside shops of the Na-| tional Shirt Manufacturing Asso- ciation. At a meeting of shirt work- ers held yesterday at Peoples House officials announced that under no circumstances will any of the 20,000 locked out workers return without a 10 per cent increase. The Amalgamated’s decision for @ strike comes after months of dick- ering with the Cotton Garment Code Authority for enforcement of the 10 per cent increase and reduc- tion of working hours to 36 a week ordered by President Roosevelt. The reduction was to go into effect De. cember 1, The manufacturers have obtained a temporary injunction staying the enforcement of the code. Talk of Mid-West Strike A general strike of 10,000 Chi- cago cotton garment workers in the ladies’ garment branch may be caiied soon, David Dubinsky, president of the International La- dies’ Garment» Workers’ Union, announced yesterday upon his re- turn from the Middle-Western regions. He added that similar strikes will follow in six other important Mid-Western centers. The workers demand union rec- ognition, a collective agreement, in- creases in wages and enforcement of the 36-hour week. date has not yet been announced. 25,000 Answer General Strike Call in Mexico TAMPICO, Mexico, Jan, 22.—A! general sympathy strike of 25,000 workers in support of the oil strik- ers is set here for the state of Tam- aupilas. The oil workers are strik- ing against the Rockefeller Stand- ard Oil, and the British Dutch Shell companies, demanding increased wages, Today sixty unions, affiliated to the Tamaupilas State Federation of Labor, voted to go out on a sym- pathy general strike tomorrow to back up the demands of the oil workers.

Case Confused | The efforts of the State to jrule out any evidence that would at this moment implicate anyone other than Hauptmann in the kid- naping and murder, combined with Chief Defense Attorney Reilly’s ad- mitted refusal to bring up any question that might damage Lin bergh’s reputation in the eyes of the masses, is bringing confusion worse confounded into the already almost incredible welter of contra dictions that has signalized the trial proceedings. The State, for example, has an- | nounced that it will not call John | Hughes Curtis, the Norfolk ship- builder, to the stand to identify | Hauptmann although he has pub- licly stated that he is willing to do 80, nor will Reilly use the testimony of Abraham Samuelson, the Bronx carpenter who maintains that he | built the now-famous ladder that was allegedly used by Hauptmann | to climb into the Lindbergh nurs- ery on the night of March 1, 1932. | Samuelson Also Withheld Samuelson, who built the box for Dr. (Jafsie) Condon that contained the ransom money, has contended |for months that he also built the _ kidnap ladder for Hauptmann and | three accomplices.

Builders written by Marguerite the factory areas and These Earl Browder, General Secretary | Toledo United Front Gets Use of Civic Auditorium (Special to the Daily Worker) TOLEDO, Ohio, Jan. 22—A com- mittee representing the American Leage Against War and Fascism and composed of two delegates to the Central Labor Union, profes- sionals, Socialists and Communists, | today forced the city to agree to permit the use of the Civic Audito- rium for the anti-Nazi rally Thurs- day evening, Feb. 3. | The meeting will be a counter- | demonstration against the an- | nounced rally of the Friends of New Germany, a Nazi outfit, the same evening, in Swiss Hall, a few blocks distant from the Civic Auditorium. Vigorous appeals for the use of | the auditorium were made by Fran- |cis W. Murphy, Secretary of the Toledo Central Committee, and William Cizek of the Cloakmakers’ Union. The Swiss Hall is only a few blocks from’ the auditorium. A strong delegation is now being organized to protest the rental of the Swiss Hall to the Nazis, and de- mand cancellation of the contract | by the Swiss Society. Many Swiss | residents are opposed to the Nazis and the pressure of organized labor here will be brought to bear upon the Swiss Society. Organizations of German workers are being invited to co-operate in the anti-fascist rally. USSR isin Lenin’s Work In Vast Tribute By Vern Smith | (Special to the Daily Worker) |" MOSCOW, Jan. 22 (By Wireless). —Yesterday, proletarian Moscow and together with it the toilers of the whole country commemorated the eleventh anniversary of the death of Lenin. Innumerable build- ings throughout Moscow hung out Red Flags with mourning borders. | Delegates of the Congress of Sov- iets of the Russian Socialist Federa- |tion of Soviet Republics assembled in the hall of the Grand Theatre in a mourning session, together | with old Bolsheviks, veterans of the October Revolution, workers and | collective farmers, students, en- gineers, technicians, scientists, art- jists and literary men. The heavy folds of banners, in various combi- nations, adorned the tribune where Lenin's bust is set. An honor guard soundlessly relieve each other. “Higher Lenin’s Banner, because it and it only brings victory to toil- ers”—is the slogan clearly defined upon a background of red. Six-fifty p. m. is an historical moment. This moment, eleven years }ago died the Titan of the Prole- tarian Revolution, whose immortal | genius continues to shine in an in- | extinguishable fire, pointing out the path to the victorious building of Socialism. Stalin Appears Stalin appears on the tribune and with him Molotov, Galinin, Voroshiloy, and other Soviet leaders. Suddenly thunderous ovations. Cries jand again incessant thunders throughout the hall. Kaganovitch, Orjonikidze thousands of people rise from their seats. The huge hall of the theatre and its balconies tremble with the “Wel- come, honor Stalin, beloved leader of the toilers” break into enthus- iastic, ever increasing rumble. Again applause admission and agreement that more funds would be necessary to care for the aged adequately Hastings estimated that it would require $675,000,000, a figure five times greater than the bill provides, to take care of the nation’s 3,750,000 destitute aged workers of 65 yeara and more. He said that the $125,- 000,000 provided by the Wagner- Lewis Bill in actual practice would | provide only $2.78 a month for each aged person, rather than the $15 specified as the government's beg- garly share Workers Must Pay Meanwhile, and Means C the Wagner-Lew Witte, executive of the Roosevelt Committee on Economic Security, who yesterday attacked the Workers’ Bill, admitted that the 3 per cent payroll tax which the Wag- ner measure carries would be passed on to the workers in the form of increased prices When the public hearings on the Wagner-Lewis bill are started noxt in week, Israel Amter, secretary of the National Unemployment Councils, and Herbert Benjamin, executive secretary of the National Joint “Ac- tion Committee for Unemployment Insurance, which was set up by t recent unemployment insurance con- gress, will present the demands of the mighty national congress to the committee. Machine Well Oiled Meanwhile, the Roosevelt machine moved with the well-oiled precision of an automaton to stifle all oppo- | sition in the House of Representa- tives on the administration relief Plans. Roosevelt told Democratic leaders in the House that he wanted | the relief program under which the legislative machinery will be created to abandon the “unemployables” and strap a nation-wide forced labor re- life system upon the unemployed, passed “with no strings attached.” This measure calls for the imme- diate appropriation of $4,880,000,000. It provides for the establishment of | work relief projects under the pro- posed plan of Harry L. Hopkins, where relief wages at a subsistence level will be paid In order to push through the measure without opposition from the floor, a Democratic caucus will be held tonight. The gag-rule, un- dertaken to stifle any attempt to restrict the powers which the relief bill carries, will be pressed into use tomorrow, committee leaders said today. On the hearings before the Senate | Finance Committee today on the | official administration “social se- curity” measure, the Wagner-Lewis Bill, Senator Wagner, who fathered | the bill in the Senate, revealed the | total inadequacy of the measure. Whereas the bill carries appropria- tions for $98.400,000 on all of its seven points, Wagner admitted that | $1,680,000,000 would be needed to |care for the nation’s dependent aged on the basis of $40 a month as an old age pension, The Wagner- Lewis Bill provides only fifty mil- ‘lion dollars for this, Benjamin Urges Protest Herbert Benjamin, executive sec- retary of the National Joint Actién | Committee for Unemployment In- surance, again today .alled for the most broad and vigorous protest movement against the totally inade- quate Wagner-Lewis Bill with its | complete denial of all benefits to | the fifteen million now unemployed. Benjamin urged that all trade unions, unemployed, fraternal and mass organizations, and most espe~ ‘cially those which were represented at the National Congress for Un- employment Insurance, immediately flood the House Ways and Means | Committee and the Congressmen: and Senators with telegrams and now sells only 53,000.
