LABOR’S OPPORTUNITY. HERE have been few announcements of deeper significance or i promise at the present time than that of the anti-Bolshevist Convention to be held by the 100 per cent. American mem- bers of the needle trades unions of Greater New York at Carnegie Hall on the evening of Saturday, April 19. Because of the many foreign-born among them, and also in view @f recent differences with their employers, the 120,000 garment workers of this city were selected as a particularly promising field ‘for the spread of Bolshevist-I. W. W. propaganda. Bolshevist leaders laid their plans to undermine the strength of the American Federation of Labor by winning over to Bolshevism | @uch radical elements among organized workers as are dissatisfied with the law-respecting po es and methods of the unions. Officers of the Garment Workers’ Union were quick to eee the | danger and to call upon Joyal union members to organize against the insidious campaign of the “Reds.” The Carnegie Hal! meeting of the needle trades will be the first conspicuous public rally of organized workers againet the principles and propaganda of Bolsheviem. As such it commands the interest and support of all Americans who have at heart the welfare of American labor in a period of pecu- liar strese and temptation. Nobody doubts that sound American ideals are certain to prevail over revolutionary doctrines aiming to establish Soviet governments in the United States. Nevertheless sporadic Bolshevism may become serious unless organized labor in this country closes up its ranks and presents an impenetrable front to those who attempt to bedevil the more easily misled among its workers. James P. Holland, President of the New York State Federation @f Labor, who is to be temporary chairman of the Carnegie Hall meeting, cays: “The Federation of Labor is American to the backbone, Ninety-nine per cent. of our more than 3,000,000 membership are opposed to everything that Bolshevism stands for, The + Federation will stand back of any and every movement, either within or outside its own membership, to kill Bolshevism in the United States.” That is the spirit. Samuel Gompers, who is expected back from Europe next week, should make it a point to be at Carnegie Hall the night of April 19 to say the same thing for the American Federation ef Labor as a whole. And every union throughout the United States should echo it and act upon it until there presently remains no corner of the country where Bolshevism can set up so much as a soap box. Organized labor, as a whole, proved that it ranked no grievance above its loyal duty to the Nation during war. Now let organized labor show that it places no claim, no discon- tent above the institutions and Government under which it has fared farthest and best in peace. The American Federation of Labor can make this Carnegie Hall meeting of needle trades unions the start of an anti-Bolshevist | eampaign that will strengthen a hundredfold American belief in the aims of organized labor and the safety of furthering them, | EDITORIAL PAGE Friday, April 4, peetiiencenescnie Utter scone | | | Hy | How to Bea Better Salesnan and Earn Bigger Pay By Roy Griffith The Evening World's Authority on Successful Salesmanship.

Evening World readers were given an advance glimpse of the record in Miss Marguerite Mooers Marshall's story of the way Barnard | girls filled high and responsible posts in the performance of the Nation’s great task. From the Barnard Liberty Loan workers—one of whom sold more than $5,000,000 worth of bonds—to the Barnard women who. managed telephone units, canteens, intelligence bureaus and enter- proud of its own. Furthermore the college should be able to count on the ri ready response of New Yorkers when it turns from its war rec@rd to ask their ajd in strengthening itself for peace, In 1914 Barnard started out to raise a million dollar endowment that the college should raise $800,000 and be free of debt. The w called a halt on money raising plans and Barnard now finds th # must have $100,000 more to attain the npaled $1,000,000 and am additional $175,000 to clear itself of debts meanwhile accumu lated.
