BATTLE TO GET
RIGHT TO MEET
IN silk town
Hold Protest Meetings
and Fight in Courts

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-Further
meetings In Paterson, N. j., ito
force recognition of the right
of free speech and peaceful as
semblage" are announced by
the American Civil Liberties
Union following the arrest Of
eleven persons at the free
speech test meeting on City
Hall steps.
The day after the test Roger
N. Baldwin, director of the Civil
Liberties Union, was arrested
and charged with unlawful as
semblage." Baldwin was held
by Recorder Munson Force for
the grand jury and released on
$500 bail.
His case and that of John c. But
terworth, socialist-labor party candi-
date for congress and chairman Of the
meeting, alone go to the grand jury.
The others will be tried on four sep
arate charges before the recorder.
United Front Meeting.
The meeting at which the arrests
took place was arranged by the Am
erican Civil Liberties Union, the
Workers Party and the socialist-la-
Dor party following the refusal of the
Paterson police to allow strikers
meetings in the Turn Hall which they
have been occupying for two months.
The reason given by chief of police
Tracy for forbidding further meetings
was the character of speeches made
by H. M. Wicks, of the Workers
Party brought into Paterson by the
strike committee as assist in the con-
duct Of the strike Of 10000 silk work
ers, now in its ninth week.
Regarding the Paterson arrests, the
Civil Liberties states: 1--WE welcome a
test in the courts and on the field of
public opinion Of the right of peaceful
assemblage in Paterson. The police
have exceeded all authority in arbit-
rarily closing up a public hall and in
AOANADAJ pACohAA6 up @ POnSOAAA AhOOS-
ing called to protest against their &C.
ton.
FIFTY policemen went wild at that
meeting when John c. Butterworth
started to read the bill of rights of
the constitution from the city hall
steps to a crowd of 700 strikers. Two
men are in the hospital with their
heads cracked; others suffered slight
injuries.
Police Only Rioters.
There was no riot except among the
police. If anyone should be held for
"inciting to riot" 1t should be chief
of police Tracy, who arrogates to him
self the power to censor speakers and
meetings according to his whims."

tually accomplished"
Within two weeks after the Dawes
plan was put in force, the American
capitalists were bold enough to pro-
pose sort Of Dawes scheme for
France. We have in mind the Hurley
plan for France settling its debt to
the United States. In this scheme
France would have to pay annuities
of $1O0,OO0,OOO for sixty-three years
and one-half the sum would be left in
France in the form of American CAPT
tai invested in French industries.
Small wonder, then, that the second
most important magnate in Germany
declared to New York Times CORE
spondent at Dusseldorf on February
8, 1924: IF conditions continue I'M
changed, Europe runs the risk to be-
come a country of slaves"
No Prosperity In Dawes Plan
Our employing class has been ener-
getically trying to sell the Dawes plan
to the American laboring and farming
masses on the basis of its bringing
prosperity to the country. There is
not grain of truth in this contention.
1t is sine qua non of the Dawes
plan that it's success depends on a
huge German export surplus. In re-
viewing the prospects for the success.
full operation of the Dawes scheme
Professor E. E. Agger, in the Annalist
for March "a, 1924, made it plain that
unless the United States accepted
large excuses of imports from Ger
many the reparations program would
fail. Prof. Agger said in part: 1--WE
are practically driven to the conclus-
ion, therefore, that the main hope
for German trade expansion lies in
the United States. 1t is rea-
sonably certain that herculean efforts
will be made to get the American
market to absorb quantities of German
exports" This much for the great
boom that is supposed to overcome
American industry as result of the
food of German orders thru the
Dawes plan.
But the American industries will
face another serious problem, the dan.
gers of which will be menacing the
workers, if the Dawes program sue
ceeds. Mr.. Albert Strauss of ]. C w

formerly vice-governor of the federal
reserve board, told the Williamstown

a preamble and set of rules which
leave no doubt as to the revolution
airy character Of their organization. In
part this preamble reads as follows:
mot only does the capitalist class
control the economic and political in
situations of present-day society, but
it commentaries and degrades art.
Music does not escape this degrade
ton, and is today the exclusive
monopoly of the ruling class. In view
of this it is incumbent on the working
class to develop its own art and cul-
ture. 1t is in line with this necessity
that the Young Workers League
orchestra has been organized. AS part
of the Young Workers League this
orchestra declares that its primary
duty is to render service to the revo-
lutionary working class movement to
the end of realizing the emancipation
|of the working class and the establish
ment of the Communist society"
The next scheduled appearance of
the orchestra is at the Foster-Gitlow
meeting on October ~. In preparation
for this day, the orchestra has been
putting in extra rehearsals in per-
fecting its program. A big feature Of

Flow-Meters Company
Machinists Strik e
Against Wage Cut

Machinists employed in the Flow
Meters company, 204O Diversey ave-
nue., were out on strike yesterday, fol
lowing a cut in wages of ten per cent
which the management insisted on
forcing upon the men.
Every one of the machinists on
strike has applied for admittance to
the International Association Of Ma
chinists, ]. ]. Uhlmann, business
agent of the district council, deciar-
ed. The machinists were receiving
from rs to 90 cents per hour with an
additional bonus. About a month ago
the boss refused to pay the bonus any
longer, and later reduced the wages
ten per cent.
The men, who up until this time.
were unorganized, circularized a pc
tition which all Of them signed, de-
handing that the boss give them their
former pay. This the management
of the company refused to do, and
the strike followed.
Machinists and specialists are adj
vised to stay away from the Flow
Meters company when looking for
work.

successful, would result in shifting
our capital power over to Germany
for German use, with the result that
we must endure the competition that
grows out of such development. There
is no use in trying to obscure or L.
more the fact that, exactly in proper
ton as these efforts succeed, the
United States, like Great Britain,
must look for keener competition and
in the last analysis must meet such
competition by reducing costs of pro.
duction. This can come only thru
larger product on the part Of labor or
lower wage cost" This means
longer hours and lower wages.
The Magazine Of Wall Street for
Sept. 81, 1924 also assures the work
ers that wage cuts are bound to fol
low the Dawes plan. 1t says: THE
facts are that Germany cannot be re.
susciated financially without at the
same time offering her the opportun.
ity to sell more than she buys. For
this, she must find markets and these
markets are only where British,
French and American markets exist.
1t is to be assumed that in order to
find markets Germany will undersell
her competitors. This she can do be-
cause Of her lower production costs.
To meet such competition we shall be
forced to cut our production costs.
This means either an Increased out
put which it will be hard to sell on
account of prospective intense COM
petition, or lower scale of wages for
the American workingman. 1t is
toward the latter, probably, that we
are drifting"
War Dangers Multiply.
And last, but not least, is the fact
that the Dawes plan multiplies and
brings closer to the American work
ing and farming masses the dangers
of new world war. 1t is fact that
the Ruhr region, closest to French i'm
perialist bayonets, holds the bulk of
the German loan security. Here is
source of conflict. To the American
bankers, security for their money is
the greatest concern. Our fnanciers
will insist on priority for their loans
or else the huge industrial credits so
necessary to the success of the Dawes
plan will not be forthcoming. The
100000, 900 loan is only drop in the
bucket of the loans to be fioated.
The germs of new imperiaIist war
are found in the very guarantees that
the American bankers are today get
ting. The United States government
can be counted on to protect the
sacred investments of its moneyed
lords with powerful armies and huge
armadas. Thus, Charles ES Mitchell of
the Rockefeller National City Bank
says: I'VE have taken the precautions
that were necessary" On October
3, 1924 ]. P. Morgan and Lamont de-
clared the loans are safe investments

PATERSON, N. j., Oct. 9-The at
tempt of Paterson silk manufacturers
to make their injunctions against the
striking silk weavers permanent has
been delayed again by vice-chancellor
Vivian M. Lewis postponement of the
hearing on the Is orders. The five
contempt cases of picketing silk work

Lewis declared the strikers had the
legal right to picket when he an
nounced continuances of the cases.
He stated that the pickets could in a
calm, orderly way attempt to persu-
ade others to join them in their strike.
Sergeant Kelliher, who climbed the
statue Of vice-president Garet A. Ho-
bart to read the riot act to the free
