Silk Strikers Denounce Socialist Daily

and distrust against the Communists
and to try to control the movement
they had scorned few weeks before
Many of the Forward gang ap
preached Communist members OF
the strike committee and tried to
align them against the Communists,
but to no avail They were con.
temptuously ignored.
The next move of the discredited
crew was the attack in the Forward,
under the guise of giving fatherly ad
vice to the strike committee. The
committee resented this sort of impu.
dence and drafted the following reply.
which we print in full:
editor Jewish Daily Forward, New
York City:
Our attention has been called to a
translation Of an article that appeared
in your paper on Saturday, Aug. 20
containing series of statements, &C
cusations and innuendoes that are
wholly uncalled for and unfounded in
fact.
"You say, in effect, that Commun.
lists are playing politics in the strike,
and base your accusations upon al.
legged treatment accorded members
of the Workmen's Circle. Thus far
your publication is the only one that
has even mildly suggested that the
strike was being utilized by any po-
litical group. Not even the enemy
press of Paterson has resorted to this
sort of subversive propaganda against
the strike. You profess to have the
welfare of the strike at heart. But
your savage attack upon some mem
bers of the strike committee, which is
la back-handed slap at the whole com
mittee, bellies your pretenses. Your
attack aligns you with the capitalist
press; in fact, you Guido them in vi
cious mendacity.
There is not one word of truth in
your story. In the first place, you say
that one 'Comrade Dubrov' appeared
before the strike committee to investi.
gate alleged ISLANDERS against the
Workmen's Circle. This is not true,
for no one has appeared for any such
purpose. Nor has the question of the
Workmen's Circle ever been dis
cussed, except to point to the number
of members of that organization that
are working while the strike is in
progress. The fact that they are
'cockroach' capitalists who do most of
their own work is no excuse for their
working at this time, especially when
we called for hundred per cent shut.
down in the industry here.
CAS- to your charge of certain peo-
pie bringing in political questions, we
desire that you be clear on this mat.
ter. The following little incident may
serve to enlighten you regarding the
tricks of certain politicians, who draw
their inspiration from the Jewish
Daily Forward:
AT a meeting OF the strike COM
mittee, held Aug. 10, a committee
with credentials from the socialist
party branch of Paterson appeared
and stated that their party was inter.
ested in the strike and that the Jew.
ish Daily Forward described as a rich
concern, would render valuable as
sistance. This all sounded very we'll
but before your committee left they
added that there was just one little
consideration they wanted incorpo.
rated along with their generous offer
That was that they be permitted to
have three members on the strike
committee. Their proposition had
just this one little string tied TO II.

heard of, procedure, the committee
considered it and adopted the follow
ing motion
1--WE fully appreciate the offer of
assistance, but the strike committee
cannot see it's way clear to seat
representatives. of political party
This is the beginning and end of
the one and only attempt on the part
of any one to use the strike for po
litical purposes.
ION the strike committee are
avowed Communists, but they were
not selected as Communists, but as
strikers and fighters in the ranks of
labor Likewise there are members
of the socialist-labor party, who are
there as fighters in the ranks and not
as representatives of their political
beliefs. No one from either Of these
groups has endeavored to impose him
self upon the strike committee. That
distinction is the exclusive effort of
the socialist party in this strike.
IF we must purchase your support
by becoming pawns of your political
machine, we respectfully decline your
generosity, and the favor your wealth
affords you, with thanks. Your much
Wanted wealth that your representa-
tives promised to bestow upon us is
no temptation, much as we desire sup
port, when II must be purchased at
the price of deviating from our fixed
policy to play no political favorites
Also your undoubted service to the en-.
envy class may account for your great
-wealth. If you are not paid the same
as any other paper that ISLANDERS the
workers when they are engaged in a
desperate struggle against the avarice
and greed of the capitalists, you are
scabbing upon the paid editors of the
capitalist press.
Now as to the facts regarding the
local Workmen's Circle. The strike
committee, in one of it's regular meet.
ings, appointed a subcommittee for
the purpose Of lining up the Jewish
workers. This subcommittee had full
power to carry on organization work
They arranged a Jewish mass meet
ing and at that meeting elected a
larger committee of 2S to aid in this
work and also adopted a resolution
calling upon members of the Work
mems Circle who were working to
come out on strike. A few days
thereafter that enlarged committee re.
ported facts and figures to prove that
about $50 members of the Workmen's
Circle, known as 'cockroach' bosses
were doing work for manufacturers
whose places were struck. Further
more. these members were running
three and four looms, which is viola.
ton Of the two-loom demand Of our
union, and is the main cause Of this
strike. Also, our committee proved
that some of the Workmen's Circle
members had ordered their lackey
foremen to ask the police to arrest
strikers who were doing peaceful
picketing.

The Way of Life

This brief sermon by the wayside
is from the Triton Gazette: Some men
seem to make money without effort,
while some women seem to annex
more husbands than the law allows
without any more effort It's the 9TH
er way round with some men, who
can't make money no matter how
hard they try, while some women find
it utterly impossible to even annex
the one husband allowed by law. But
then, that's the way of life"

sleep of q man four years in France.

was his comment.

retorted Grant, springing out Of bed.
Let me see yes, / still nave
1t clearly. I'll tell you about it some
time, II you can stay awake. When
do we eat?"
NOW, or as soon as you are pre-
sentable. I've a notion TO give you
three days C.B. for appearing on pa
rade in your pajamas."
Make 1t a cash fine, sergeant, old
dear, and pay 1t out of what you owe
me- Now that that Is settled order
up a decent meal. I'll be shaved and
dressed long before it arrives. You
know this is a first-class hotel, where
prompt service would not be toll
Grated"
AS they ate together Grant showed
no disposition TO discuss what Under
called his Big Idea, nor yet to give any
satisfaction in response to his COM
panion's somewhat pointed references
as to his doings of the night before.
There are times, Under" he said,
when my soul Graves solitude. You,
being a sergeant, and therefore having
no soul, will not be able to understand
that longing for contemplation"
IT'S all right" said Under. II don't
want her"
Furthermore" Grant continued. ito

and your absence will be much in de-
mand."

Under sprang to attention, gave a
salute in which mock Difference could
not entirely obscure the respect be-
meath, and set about on his commits
sions, while Grant devoted the after
noon TO a session with Murdoch and
Jones, but it was noted that Grants
interest centered more in a certain
telephone call than in the very graft
flying financial statement which Muir
doch was able to place before him.
And ii was probably as a result of
that telephone call that taxi drew up
in front of Murdoch's home at exactly
six-thirty that evening and bore Miss
Phyllis Bruce and an officer wearing
captains uniform In the direction
of the best hotel in the city.
The dining room was sweet with the
perfume of flowers, and soft strains of
music stole vagrantly about its high
archine pillars, mingling with the chat
ter of lovely women and of men To
whom expense was no consideration.
Grant was conscious of a delicious
sense Of intimacy as he helped Phyllis
remove her wraps and seated himself
by her at secluded corner table.
"By Jovew he exclaimed. II don't
make compliments for exercise. but
you do look stunning tonight"
A warmth of color lit up her cheek
he had noticed at Murdoch's how pale
she was-and her eyes laughed back
at him with some OF their old-time
vivaclty.
81 am so glad" she said. 1T seems
almost like old times"
They gave their orders, and sat In
silence through an overture. Grant
was delighting himself simply in her
presence. and guessed that for her part
she could not retract the confession
her love had wrung from her so long
ago.
There are some things which don't !

orchestra had ceased.
