4O-HOUR WEEK
OP P OSED BY
BOSS'SLODBYIST
Mrs. Dudley Malone
Wants Non-Sex Laws

ALBANY, N. Y, March S.-A
heated debate ensued before the New
York state senate and assembly com
mittees here, when bills proposing 3
48-hour week and the establishment
Of minimum wage commission were
discussed. The. bills apply only TO
women ald minors.
Three divergent attitudes emerged
during the argument in the assembly
chamber.
Intransigent opposition to the bills
was expressed by the employers re-
preventative, Mark A. DAILY. It will
be remembered that Days role as
the paid lobbyist of the Associated
Industries was exposed recently dur
ing the bosses' unsuccessful attack
upon State Labor Commissioner
Snientag. On that occasion, it was
shown that the Associated Industries
have been expanding immense sums
to maintain lobby, devoted to sabo
tagging every measure of social or
economic progress. In the present
hearing, the employers spokesman
again stood for the factory owners
profits as against a living wage and
decent working hours.
Mrs. Dudley Field MaIone, Ma.
tional Woman's party, an opponent
Of the bills-for very different rea-
sons-declared that she would vigor.
ously indorse them, if the contem-
plated laws were applicable to men
as we'll as women and minors.
Legislation fixing hours Of labor
asserted Mrs. Malone, SHOULD be on
a non-sex basis. 1t is gallant enough
Of the legislature to offer women
special privileges, but we are con
WINGED that in the end it will do tbs
women more harm than good"
Others who identified themselves
with this opinion stated that the pas.
sage of the bills would mean whole.
sale dismissals of women from fact
cries, since men would be retained &c
perform greater quantity Of work
during the same hours, or by over
time.
Sponsors of the bills included re-
representatives. of the State Federation
Of Labor, the Consumers league, the
Women's Trade Union league and
other labor groups. Their policy in
advocating the measures was gener.
ally that half loaf is better than nc
bread at all. Governor Smith had
already recommended the bills in his
annual message, and the Democratic
senate has lent them approval.
In 1928, both the minimum wage
commission and 48-hour week bills
were defeated, but it is considered
that the latter stand fair chances :: :.
being passed this year.

FRENCH PARTY'S
CONGRESS- SHOWS
RISING STRENGTH
United Front Offered
to Socialists
Especial to The Daily wOrksrl

The Congress of the French Com
munist Party just held ct Lyon
showed a strong closely knit party,
purified Of its opportunist and re-
formist elements, with a growing
membership, with close contact es-
tablished between itself and the Ger
man workers. The party's record is
one of great accomplishment in the
trades unions, with no internal con-
iicts or differences with the Com
munist international.
At the beginning Of the Congress
Albert TRENT, one of the leaders of
the French Communist Party, was
shot at as he passed local of the
Anarchist organization at Lyon.
Luckily he was not harmed.
Urge Workers' Bloc.
The Congress decided to call upon
the Socialists to enter into united
front with the Communist Party in
the coming elections with the lower
middle class against the National
bloc. The Communist Party would
form the united front with the So
cialist Party only on the condition
that the Socialists renounce all col
laboration with the middle class. In
stead of the left Bloc" of the So
cialist- Middle Class elements, it is
proposed to form the Block of Work
ers and Farmers.
1t was decided to put forth every
effort to unite the trade unions which
are now split. The Party is also to
start Immediately to reorganize on a
shop nuclei basis.
Clasp Germans Hand.
On the question of the Ruhr occu-
patton, the Congress proclaimed the
utter incapacity of the capitalist gov
eminent of France to solve any of
the international questions, and
pointed out that only the common ac-
ton of the French and German work.
ers against their governments can
bring about solution.
The Communist Party of France,
the Congress has shown, is constant
ly advancing, and will soon become
strong enough as a revolutionary
party to bring about the downfall of
the French capitalist government.

lspeeiaI to The paiIy w0rkerl

WASHINGTON, March 3.-The
house insular affairs committee de-
cided today to report bill providing
for Philippine independence.
The Philippine press bureau made
public a cablegram from Manila
stating that the Filipinos were boy
cotting American goods and Ameri-
can papers owing to the suspension
of Ben F. Wright, insular auditor of
the one million peso independence
fund. Wright is said to have the
backing of the American press and
American business.
The Philippine nationalists replied
to the suppression of their fund by
launching a nationwide campaign
for voluntary subscriptions which
promises to soon pass the two mill

Flat J0nitOrs Get
Stay of Sentence
Despite CrOUe Lies

The nine men convicted with w.
F. Quesse, Of the Chicago Flat
Janitors' Union, for conspiracy were
granted stay Of sentence by the
Illinois supreme court yesterday. The
stay will be effective until the United
States supreme court rules on a mo-
ton for a writ Of certiorari made
by Quesse and the other defendants.
On Feb. the state supreme court
refused to grant the men a new trial
and they were ordered to prepare to
go to prison. The defendants at
once took their case to the United
States supreme court.
The capitalist press is continually
saying that Quesse and the other
men convicted with him were con
victed for extortion. This is not
true. They were indicted and tried
on nine counts. The jury dismissed
eight Of the counts and convicted
them on one count. The count on
which they were convicted charged
conspiracy. All the counts charging
bribery and extortion were dismissed
by the jury. Robert T. Grove, states
attorney, has been chiefly instru-
mental in spreading the lie that the
men were convicted Of extortion.
Convicted with Quesse and linked
with him in subsequent litigation are
Eugene Fosdick, John d. Sullivan,
Claude F. Peters, Robert Osterberg,
Frank McWaters, George Waters,
John MATHS, Peter Lacy and Gus
Anderson.
