Metal Industries In "A
Marked Decline

NEW YORK, May S.--April reports
from the manufacturers in New York
State show drop in factory employ
ment This statement was made by
Industrial Commissioner Bernard L.
Shientag Of the State Department of
Labor. There has been very little
spring rise this year, the Commission
er said, so that the present movement
indicates a real decline in the demand
for factory labor. The reductions at
this time extended to most of the
industries and to all Of the import
ant manufacturing districts in the
state.
The important group of metal in
dustries almost without exception,
showed decline in employment in
April Brick yards took on a good
many workers this month and pro-
duction in these plants is almost in
full swing. An increase is also evil
dent in the production of interior
woodwork, but the cement mills, al
tho still active, curtailed production
somewhat at this time.
Glassware production fell off sharp
ly in April and upstate plants max
ing silk gloves and other textile prod
ucts dropped a number of operatives.
Some of the rug manufacturers also
reported reduced working forces. Dull
ness is the rule in the leather indus
try. Among the paper manufacturers,
altho most of the mills are taking adj
vantage of favorable water conditions,
few of the plants reported sharp
reductions and net decline in the in
dex resulted.
Reports from New York City in
April indicate that nearly $4,000 fac
tory employees have been released
there since last year.

Especial to The Daily worker)

SALIVA, Kans., May S.-Farmers
and labor leaders from all over the
state have sent out call for state
convention of independent political
groups. The meeting is scheduled for
May II in this town, and at it dele
gates to the June II st. Paul conven-
ton will be elected. Sixty prominent
men have signed the call, which reads
as follows:
Text Of Call.
'In view of the fact that there are
thousands of voters who feel they can
no longer follow in the steps of either
of the old parties nationally, that
many of the national leaders of the
two dominant parties have been
proven unworthy of the support of the
forward looking and progressive vot-
ers of the state, and that many men
who, when asked to serve their con-
stituents in an official capacity are re-
luctant to do so, knowing that by re-
ceiving the support of the party ma
chine they are expected to support its
wishes:
Therefore, in order to give the vot-
ers Of Kansas an opportunity to vote
for candidate for president and vice
president whose principles coincide
with the great majority Of the voters
of Kansas, also elect delegates to the
st. Paul Farmer-Labor convention,
June II, 1924, and to take such action
in regard to naming state officers as
the convention sees fit, the under
signed Independent citizens and mem
bers of labor and farm organizations
hereby resolves to call state con-
vention of all progressive and indie
pendent voters of the state of Kan
sas. This convention to be held in

Especial to The Daily Worker)
TACOMA, Wash, May S.-Logging
camps and sawmills are running on
short time this year. Forest fires are
starting unusually early and closing
some camps. Few camps have run
during the winter. Loggers can get
out enough timber in eight months
to run the mills year, and mills are
not running full time. All lumber
camps in Snohomish County (the
Everett-Monroe region) closed in
definitely. All mills in Everett are
running only four days a week and
have an overstock of raw material.
British Columbia faces the same con-
dition. Tacoma mills have cut wages
forty cents day and aitho the min
imum wage of $40 a day still stands
it is limited that it may soon be drop
ped. The cut is by permission of the
-Four L" wage board which says that
it is necessary because of the decline
in the demand for lumber and the fall
in the price of lumber. Profits can not
be kept up if wages are not cut. Prop
uganda against single roofs by fire
insurance companies ard by makers
of composition roofngs have cut
heavily into the shingle trade in the
northwest.
There is no real organization among
the workers. The A. F. of L. Timber
Workers Union has passed out of
existence. The I. w. W. never did or
ganize the mills and with the camps
closed down it is helpless. The -Four

of making the loggers and workers
more patriotic, attacking the I. w. W.,
drawing members from the Timber
Workers, and holding the workers in
subsection. It's main function is reduc-
ing wages and giving dances.
