This is the fifth Of series Of ar

George L. Berry, president Of the In

the International union are now de-
termined to get rid Of Berry and 5er-

1t is worthy OF notice that Berry
in his boost for the governorship of
Tennessee never mentioned the fact
that he was president Of the Inter-
national Printing Pressmens' and As

want the ruling classes Of Tennessee
to know that he had any connection

TNHH fossil remains Of a Neanther

lance ancestors in many ways. There

Strange to say the prayers had ef-

pray, they are enemies of religion
When they do pray, they are bias

AETNA FURNITURE
WORKERS VICTORS
IN SHORT STRIKE
Thank Daily Worker as
Their Only Aid

The upholsterers of the Aetna Fur
niture company Of 469 West gath st..
who struck early last week when
the firm tried to force a second
wage cut on them in addition to a
ten per cent cutton piece rates which
they had agreed to, have won their
strike completely and went back
to work yesterday with all their
demands accepted by the manage
ment.
Monday morning, the superin-
tendent summoned in the committee
which had been elected by the strik-
ers, from off the picket line, and
agreed to rescind the second cut and
to recognize the shop committee
which the strikers had set up as the
authorized spokesman in the shop to
adjust grievances in the future. Also,
those workers whom the firm had
said could not come back at all, are
not to be Disseminated against, but
are to be taken back without preju-
dice with the rest.
Thank the Daily Worker.
At a meeting of the strikers yes
terday morning. they discussed their
experience and the agreemnt, and in
the name of all1the strikers the meet
ing thanked the DAILY WORKER for
the assistance that had been given
them and expressed the hope that in
the future the DAILY WORKER
would grow andtprosper as the real
workers press and lead in the whole
labor movement.
The strikers came TO the conclus-
ion that their only hope lies In the
left wing labor movement being able
ultimately to take the leadership OF
the American labor movement, as
they could expect no aid from the
present yellow leadership OF the Up
holsterers' Union, which had sold
them out before and now refuses to
organize them at all They are not
opposed to the union and hope TO be
able to Join when the union leader
ship ceases its opposition to admit
ting workers to membership.
Daily Worker Only Aid.
The strikers declared that the only
aid they had in winning their strike
was from the DAILY WORKER, the
organ OF the Workers Communist
Party. and all promised not to for
get that they were obligated by their
own interest as workers, to partici-
pate in the labor movement under the
