Hearst Plays Role of
Employment Shark
Thru Chicago Paper

Hearst's Herald e. Examiner en-
ployment bureau for Chicago's job
less turns out to be scheme to boost
the want-ad columns of the paper.
Persons asking to be placed in en-
ployment are told they can't be as
sisted unless they insert a job want
ed ad in the paper. The minimum is
usually a 3-line insertion for days
for which the charge is $4.53 cash.
Applicants are told that jobs are prac-
tically certain by that method.

disproven. Smith has been I'M
able to touch the Ohio delega-
ton and has not made as much
Roadway as many believed he
would in the Pennsylvania and
Illinois delegations.
Davis Turns White.
The outstanding feature, as the
race so far has developed any fea-
lures at all, is the rapid stride made
by John w. Davis toward the nomina-
ton. Davis rose from 81 ballots in
the first vote to 1861 on the thir-
tieth. Having crossed the hundred
mark for a day-he now slipped again
he is no longer a dark horse but
real white hope. With McAdoo
slipping and Smith making very little
Roadway, the gains of Davis were es-
pecially impressive. There are not
many more votes that Smith can cor
rail-. On the other hand, the outlook
for McAdoo is even darker.
The unexpected swiftness with
which dark horse Davis Of yesterday
is now circling the track, has caused
many people to ask why the sudden
pace developed by the West Virgin
ian. All sorts Of explanations are be-
ing given. One Of the reasons most
widely circulated is that the big bust
ness Hobbies have swooped down in
full force upon the convention and
that the delegates are easy picking
for them.
Bryan Threatens Davis.
William Jennings Bryan is threat
ening to lead an open fight against
Davis as soon as he comes within
striking distance OF the 200 mark.
Bryan is determined TO prevent a re-
currence of the situation in which
Alton b. Parker, the big insurance
corporation lawyer. was nominated by
the democratic party. Bryan is pranc.
ing around the convention hall, whis-
pering into delegates ears all about
the evil influences OF Wall Street.
SO far Bryan has not succeeded in
stemming the Davis tide completely.
But Il may be safely stated that he
has been more or less instrumental
in bringing about a slackening OF the
pace that Mr.. Davis seemed 10 be de-
yeloping during the day.
It is significant to note that betting

AL Smith KICKS
ladies GARMENT
WORKERS IN Ace
4O-Hour Week knitted
BY Takers Candidate

Especial to the DAILY WoRkER)
NEW YORK, July 4.-Gov-
ernor AL Smith, the Gompers-
Tammany candidate at Madison
Square Garden has Just kicked
the International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union in the face
by refusing the unions demand
for the 40-hour week.
The union was turned down
thru Smiths special commission
which passed on the points at
issue between the workers and
the bosses at the request of the
officials of the l. L. G. w. u.
President Morris Sigman and the
unions executive board are support
ing the governors decisions. At the
last international union convention
Smith received an invitation to speak
and he was heartily eulogized by
the union officialdom, as a friend of
labor" Smith did not accept the in
vitation, however. At the same con-
vention Sigman fought every effort to
endorse a class party movement.
Turn Down Many Demands.
Smiths commission, besides reject
ing the 44-hour week, refused to re-
commend that employment be guar
anteed. 1t also turned down the de-
mand that each jobber be limited in
the number of sub-contractors he
might use. Both Of these issues are
put off for further investigation
with the recommendation that a re-
port on permanent solution be pre-
sented January l, 1925.
The demand for the union label
was rejected. Instead the Smith com
mission advised the use of "sani-
tary" label showing that the garment
was made under sanitary conditions.
Request that shops be limited to IA
machine operators was conceded. The
commission also said that under GER
tain conditions the union might have
the right to examine employers
books.
"Good of the Industry"
In short, the special commission of
Governor Smith has given the work
ers practically nothing. 1t naturally
follows that manufacturers and sub
contractors are highly pleased with
the decision. President Sigman and
his chief lieutenants,. who are closer
to the politicians and bosses than they
are to the workers, also took a stand
in favor of the findings, tho "for the
good of the industry" Sigman says,
admitting that it was not entirely
what they wanted. But the rank and
file of the union membership is in
dignant at the betrayal and declare
that their earlier intention to strike
should have been followed instead OF
turning the case over to an employ
ers' governor.
Jobbers May Force Strike.
The irony of it is that a strike is
still possible. The jobbers-in con
trast to the manufacturers who have
their own shops are asking still
greater concessions from the union.
Seeing Sigman's surrender so far,
they are hopeful Of greater surren-
der. A strike to enforce the Smith
award may be forced.

blood and sweat Of labor leaders in
the past who have found oppression
and monopoly by organization. If
there is built up in America great
black bloc Of non-union laborers,
who have a right to hate unions, all
laborers, black and white, eventually
must suffer.
Is it not time, then, that black and
white labor get together? Is it not
time for white unions to stop bluffing
and for black laborers to stop cutting
off their noses to spite their faces?
We, therefore, propose that there be
formed by the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, the American Federation of
Labor, the Railway Brotherhoods and
any other bodies agreed upon, an
inter-racial Labor Commission.
We propose that this Commission
undertake.:
1. To find out the exact attitude
and practice of national labor bodies
and local unions toward Negroes and
of Negro labor toward unions.
2. To organize systematic propa-
ganda against racial discrimination
on the basis of these facts at the great
Labor meetings, in local assemblies
and in local unions.
The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
stands ready to take part in such
a movement and hereby invites the
cooperation of all organized labor.
The Association hereby solemnly
warns American laborers that unless
some such step as this is taken and
taken soon the position gained by or
ganized labor in this country is
threatened with irreparable loss.
Write to Cleveland.
An address to the Cleveland Con-
ference for Progressive Political
Action covering the political side Of
the same subject, was passed. OBJ
lection was raised on the ground that
the Cleveland conference is not a
labor conference, and that the address
properly ought to be directed to the
National Organization Committee of
the Farmer-Labor Party formed at
st. Paul. A proposal to send the same
communication to the Farmer-Labor
committee was ruled off the floor on
the ground that the st. Paul conven-
ton is not now in session and this
communication was couched as an
address to a convention in session,
assurances being given that similar
communication would be sent to the
Farmer-Labor Party.
The address to the Cleveland con-
ference is as follows:
To the Cleveland Conference for
Progressive Political Action.
Gentlemen:
The National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People in
Fifteenth Annual Conference, speak
ing for a large portion of the think
ing Negroes of America, takes this
to lay before your Con-
ference certain considerations touch
ing the Negro Race.
The political power of Negroes has
greatly increased owing to the con-
tinuous migration of black working
people from the DISTINGUISHING South
to the industrial centers of the North.

NEGROES CALL FOR UNION AID

attract the votes of Negroes today
must first convince them of its de-
termination and ability to forward
their industrial and political and
social emancipation.
But the American Negro has in adj
dition to these another and more
subtle and more dangerous problem,
that of discrimination against him
within the very ranks of labor itself;
discrimination to keep him out of the
unions; discrimination in the unions
after he has joined; determinations
of all sorts to deprive him of earning
a decent livelihood.
Negro From Scabbing Need.
1t is this widespread and deter
mined race discrimination that is
alternating the Negro vote from the
progressive liberal and labor vote,
and is furnishing the capitalist free
Of charge not only cheap and increas-
ingly efficient and non-union and
union-hating labor, but also a. large
and growing vote in the main indus
trial centers of the country.
We appeal to the Cleveland Confer
ence for Progressive Political Action
to take such enlightened and far
sighted steps against race and color
discrimination as will enable us to
appeal to our people in behalf of the
liberal and labor parties of the nation,
without being faced by the present
incontrovertable fact that these very
persons are today greater enemies of
our right to earn decent bread and
butter than the captains of Monopoly
and Privilege.
Wanted X. X. X. Named.
Another action of the Negro con-
ference is vigorous denunciation of
the Republican and Democratic parties
for their failure to condemn the Ku
Klux Khan unqualifedly and by name.
Apparently unmindful of the fact
that the strongest elements of the
Cleveland progressive" conference
had avowed themselves supporters
of the Khan candidate McAdoo, the
delegates voted to address this also
to the Cleveland conference. 1t is as
follows:
1.-THE fifteenth annual convention of
the National Association for the Ad-
vapcement of Colored People does
hefeby express and record its I'M
qualified protest at the action of the
two major political parties in evading
specific denunciation of the Ku Klux
Khan by name.
1--WE urge the coming third party
convention at Cleveland to seize this
opportunity for courageous action by
denouncing the Khan in unqualified
terms and by specific designation.
Resolved that this resolution be
telegraphed to the resolution com
mittee of the convention"
For Federal School Control.
The resolutions advocating radical
steps. to abolish residence segrega-
ton by compelling real estate owners
and agents to rent to the first
conner" regardless of color, and ad-
vocating that all schools be put under
national control as a means toward
abolishing Jim Crow schools for
Negro teachers and pupils, were not
reported out of committee. However,
the previous position of the organiza-
ton on these matters was reafiirmed,
which action to some extent at least
borders on the position advocated in
the resolutions.
