OUTLAW STRIKE
OF SWITCHMEN.
IS UP IN court
Buffalo HearingReUeGl
Treason of Officials
BY JOSEPH SIMlNoFF.
Especial to The Daily Worker)

BUFFALO, Dec. 14.-The
"outIaw" switchmen's strike of
1920 was up in the supreme
court in Buffalo. The widow of
Simon J. Mahoney, an alleged
"outIaw" striker, is suing the
Switchmen's Union for insur-
ance due on the policy held by
her husband while a member of
the union.
During the proceedings in the
case a number of facts have
been brought out as to the part
that the officials of the Switch
mems Union played in betraying
two thousand railroad workers
in that strike.
Morris Welsh, grand secretary and
t easurer of the union who appeared
in behalf of the union testified that
the 1000 workers who in 1920 took a
fishing vacation, violated the consti.
tuition Of the union and struck agains'
the United States government
Conditions Grow Worse.
Worker after worker who was called
on the witness stand pointed out that
the conditions on the railroads for the
workers were becoming more unbear.
able from day to day. The wages paid
to these workers were so low that 1t
was hardly sufficient to keep body and
soul together, let alone of getting the
necessities of life.
The men who were then well or.
gained in Buffalo appealed to the
grand lodge officers for action to al.
leviate this situation. But the bureau
cracy of the Switchmen's Union, in.
stead of acting in this situation, hav,
been feeding these workers on prom
Uses for a number of months.
They realized that they could not
expect anything from these bureau.
Gratis, and decided to take a vacation
in April 1920. The officials of tho
union have enlisted the aid of the rail.
road managers and the United States
government to drive these 1000 work
ers back on the railroads. Sooner
than go back to the slavery endured
by them en- the railroads, they have
found ether employment.
In private conversation with some
of the former switchmen, they inform
ed me that the former grand lodge

sible for the outlawing OF the switch
