Decorators Strike
Won, Union Asserts
Nearly 5000 Reported
Back at 81 an Hour ard
5-Doy Working IT eek

Almost half of the 10000 union
painters, papcrhangers and decorators
in Manhattan and The Bronx, who
went on strike two days ago for pay
at the rate Of 81 an hour and for five
day week, returned to work yesterday
with their demands granted, according
to union officials.
The independent employers, who are
not members of the Association of
Master Painters and Decorators, have
practically all agreed to the new scale
said Philip Zausner, secretary of Dis
trict Council No. 8, which is conduct
ing the strike from 166 East Fifty
sixth Street.
Four thousand decorators and paint
ers in Brooklyn are expected to join
the strike to-day.
"Not drop of paint is being applied
in all of the city's building Industry
except under the 81 an hour scale, which
is an increase of 25 cents an hour"
said Mr.. Zausner. "The strike is a COM
plete success. For the first time in
their lives painters and decorators will
enjoy two holidays a week. This will
spread the work more evenly over the
year.
The master painters are holding out
Ihey are comparatively small organ
ization and will soon have to yield"
Alfred f. Joy, secretary Of the
Master Painters Association, said the
big EMPLOYERS had no intention Of yield
ing.
I'VE offered the men 81 day in
stead of So said Mr.. JOY This offer
was refused. We are willing that they
should work only five days a week and
are ready to meet them half way on
the wage demand. 1t is not true that
the employers are scurrying TO get
back their men. The building industry
will not suffer seriously because Of the
in which to have buildings ready for
occupancy by October IL
A. B. Williams. secretary Of the
Brooklyn branch of the union, said that
half of the $50 employers in BROOKLYN
already have agreed to grant the union
demands. He said the strikers would
be ordered back to work as agreements
are signed.
Complaint that the union had called
the strike in violation of an agreement
to arbitrate was made yesterday by
B. NJ. Squircs. 300 Broadway. who was
asked BY the Department Of Labor to
act as mediator. Mr. Squires said he
sent request for Cancellation to the
UNION, but it was not answered until
the day the strike was called
The disregard Of orderly procedure,
the presenting of an ultimatum sub
Ject to no compromise or negotiation,
the upsetting Of the principle of col

be Of grave concern.' said Mr.. Squires.
1T is to be hoped that conservative
leaders will insist on orderly meHods."

Increase and Closed Shop

The shlrtmakers' strike, which began
seven weeks ago, viii soon be over.
Less than a thousand of the seven
thousand workers who walked out on
July are still out All the others are
back at work
But reports as to the victor conflict.
Mark f. Goldberg. counsel for the
Shirt Manufacturers Protective Asso-
citation, said yesterday that the work
ers are returning to Il cir jobs, but not
on the union terms.
They are coming back to open
shops" he explained. The employers,
approaching the advancing costs of
living. read lv granted wage increases.
But they have absolutely refused to
recognize the union
On the other hand. Abraham Green
stein, Of the Joint board Of the union.
fatty denied Mr.. Goldberg's assertion
He said at his Office at SAP Canal
Street:
All the settlements that have been
made have been made under the unions
terms. Numerous manufacturers be-
longing to the employers organization
nave come around to our terms One
of them recently told me he believed
every member of the Shirt Mauufact-
urers' Protective Association was de-
slrous Of settling, but that none Of
them had the nerve to do so openly.
Consequently many of them have ap-
preached us under the guisc of being
independents. In every place where
our workers are returning they now
enjoy closed shop and are getting the
increases demanded. .
These demands were for forty
four-hour week, a 25 per cent increase
IL wages for the week workers, 40 per
cent increase for the piece workers and
a closed shop.

BEGGING FOR THE BoLsHEvIKI.

Raymond Robins cuts wide swath in his
capacity as special pleader for the bolshevild.
1t is edifying to be told by this late representa-
tive of the Red Cross in Russia how greatly we
have misunderstood the men and their motives.
Trotzby is animated by the Hottest impulses,
and Lenine blessing in disguise, if we are to
take Robins word for it. What does the record
show?
Two years ago, the autocracy of Russia fell
to pieces; Lvoff, Miliukoff and other men of
capacity sought to frame government that
might preserve order until a substantial and en-
during regime might be installed. With the aid
of the duma they were proceeding carefully
and successfully. Bear in mind that the duma
represented the people, having been chosen by
popular vote. Kerensky and his crew of So
ciasts won control of the assembly and ousted
Lvoff and Miukoff as being reactonaries.
Kerensky destroyed the army by his remark
able order giving soldiers power to override
their officers. Lenne and Trotzky were then
preaching anarchy, and soon had Kerensky in
the discard, and the bolshevk in control
By what means these irresponsibles seized
and held power we have been\told, many times
by credible witnesses, by representatives of our
own and other governments The steps that led
up to the farce of Brest-Litovsk have been we'll
explained. All the horrors that have followed
are not known, nor ever will be, for it is i'm
possible to recount the record We do know
that nowhere in history can be found parallel
for the achievements of the bolshevists, under
the head of Lenine and Trotzky.
Now comes Colonel Robins to plead that we
and all other civilized and responsible peoples
recognize" the bolsheviki as the legitimate gov
eminent of Russia. Recognize? We know
them, their reputation OF honor, obligations,
debt social order, religion, God; their profana-
ton of everything civilization stands for, their
indulgence in every crime that has blackened
manknds course, bestial, besotted, degraded,
unspeakably brutal, we know them from reliable
and trustworthy witnesses
Robins will have hearing, for Americans
will listen to anyone, but his utmost endeavor
will not be able to wipe out the unthinkable
things the bolshevki have DONE They have
brought Russia almost to determination; they
threaten the world with their horrid doctrine
and more horrid deeds. Security does not come
through temporizing with such. The world
tried to overlook the Hohenzollern menace and
what happened? Boshevism is only another
threat of destruction; why should it be winked
at or CLOSED over in pretense at establishing
brotherhood?

An Important Job Ahead.

Though not possible to take it immedi-
ately in hand, by far the most important item
in the program proposed for the Chember of
Commerce, because more vital to the business
development of Omaha, is the prying loose of
the Burlington from the grip of the Great
Northern octopus. If it was against public
policy to let the Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific merger stand, it is certainly as much if
not more against public policy to let the great
Burlington system built to serve the needs of
this section, be converted into mere feeder
for the Hill roads, and its operation constantly
manipulated to the detriment of Burlington ter
ritory and for the benefit of the Great Northern
AS long as the Burlington remains in this tu-
teage, we may be sure that its improvement and
extension will be secondary to the claims of
the Great Northern. If the government is to
return the railroads to private ownership, then
the annulment of this merger should be brought
about, and if the railroads are to be operated
under regional plan, the Burlington should be
attached to the group to which it belongs, and
not to the group dominated by interests CEN
tered in the prosperity of another section. The
merger of the Burlington with the Great North
ern has never BODIED good to Omaha, or to
Burlington shippers or patrons, and the sooner
it is undone the better.
