West New York Police
Arrest Strike Pickets

WEST NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-In
connection with the strike in the Hill
crest Silk Mills of West New York 3
number of arrests have been made re
Gently in spite of the fact that the
strike proceedings have been peaceful
thruout.
Yesterday two pickets were arrested
and Judge Miles issued a statement
saying that no picketing could be al
lowed anywhere near the plant.
A. Weisbord the organizer of the
united front committee of textile
workers, was arrested on charge of
disorderly conduct. From these facts
1t seems that the textile bosses of
West New York are using consider
able pressure in order to defeat the
strikers.
News has come to this office that
strikebreakers are being hired for mu.
nifcent wages and with all. sorts OF
attractions offered them in order to
move them to West New York.

Australian Seamen
Stand Firm Against
the Pound Wage Cut

SYDNEY, Australia - (FP) - Al
though every effort has been made
by the ship-owners to get crews for
the idle British vessels in Australian
ports, the ships still remain idle. Only
in isolated cases are men going back
to work, and those resuming are more
than counter-balanced by the crews
of other vessels going on strike. Only
a mere handful of men have resumed
work since the strike started about
two months ago, and the total now
out on strike number over 5000.
Though no settlement of the dis
pute has been reached, it is under
stood that business interests in Aus
tralia are willing to find enough mo-
ney to meet the demands of the sea-
men for the journey back to Britain
so that the vessels can be taken away
from Australia. The men are not
likely to accept this offer unless they
get guarantee there will be no vic
timisation when they reach Britain.

CHICAGO-(FP)-The General De-

the bitterest anti-I. w. w. judge in
California. Ford was rearrested on

who carried police commissions and
shot into a meeting of the strikers
with their wives and children. He will
be now tried for the killing of the
second of the two attackers. The
judge who was to have jurisdiction
disqualified himself by publicly say
ing that Ford should have been hang

Shoe Manufacturers
Assail Workers Union

NEW YORK. Nov. 15.-The Ameri-
can Shoe Workers Protective Union,
including many shoe workers of many
of the largest shops of the city, is fac
ing a severe struggle with the shoe
bosses.
The argument between the union
and the shoe manufacturers board Of
trade expired on November 1. In
stead of making demands for better
wages and better conditions for the
workers, the leaders of the union al
lowed the manufacturers to take the
offensive. The manufacturers pro-
ceeded to demand the right Of hire
and fire." the right to select employ
es Of their own choosing during slack
periods, the elimination of certain
legal holidays from the old agreement
and the right to interfere in the or
ganizational matters Of the union. The
leaders of the American union put for
ward a meek demand for a return to
the old conditions, but the shoe work
ers would not tolerate such weakness
They demanded the immediate repu
diation of the manufacturers terms
and all insisted upon their own de-
mands
A sentiment is spreading turnout
the trade for the amalgamation Of the
American union and the protective
union, for a Is per cent increase in
wages thruout the trade; for full pay
for all holidays; for non-interference
by the manufacturers in the internal
affairs Of the union.
The shoe workers are fully aroused
and are determined to secure their
demands.

SEAMEN'S LAW
TARGET OF The
SHIP OWNERS
Don't Want 1t, Even II
Ineffective

WASHINGTON-(FP)-Repea Of
all the essential clauses OF the La
Toilette seamen's act except the one
removing the threat Of Imprisonment
when in a safe harbor, is proposed by
the organized shipowners OF the Unit
ed States and endorsed by the U. s.
chamber of commerce, who will hold
joint conference in Washington
Nov. 1917 to frame bill.
Andrew Furuseth, president init.
Seamens Union Of America and
author of the seamen's act, describes
the coming conference as one de-
signed to destroy the American mer-
chant marine in order to build up
the British merchant marine. This,
he adds, has been the object partially
attained by the U. S. shipping board
under admiral Palmer and his prede-
cessors.
Among the chief points which the
shipowners would repeal are: Require
ment that s. percent of the deck crew
be skilled seamen; that the crew I'M
uclSIdHu OhS Adhe uoSO IL winch eAAO Va
ders are given by the officers; that
payment of wages, amounting to half
the sum due, shall be made by the
master to the seamen on demand in
any safe port Thereby enabling the
seamen to quit the vessel; that fire.
men shall not be compelled to go on
deck in wintry weather on the great
lakes to work, that crews shall not
be taken out on the great lakes after
the close of safe navigation.

u. S. Sailors Proved

failing of Workers
BY ART SHIELDS.

NEW YORK-(FP)-The stone
walls that enclose Mooney and Bill
lings, Sacco and Vanzetti, Rangel and
Cline, Ford and Suhr and a host of
western wobblies had chilling effect
on the reception Australia gave the
American fleet, says Ben Bright, an
active spirit in the Australian Sea-
mems union, now visiting New York.
Bright was in Sydney when the feet
came and he says the Trades and La
Dor assembly's refusal to participate
in any of the greetings and gala af-
fairs to the visiting battleship men
because of Uncle Sans jailings of
union labor-had the effect of a huge
chunk of ice So much so that several
sailors got up on union platforms and
pleaded that they likewise resented
the persecution of labor in their home
land.
1t was hard on the sailors but hard
too on Australian Babbitry when
worker daughters stepped away from
boys in blue on the dancing floor. So
newspapers came out plainly with ap-
peals for dancing partners for the
sailors and they let it be understood
between the lines that they were
not particular as to the kind Of girls
the main thing was the sex
But it wasn't much of a success.
Adding force to the movement and
perhaps furnishing the major reason
with the more conservative sections
Of labor was the general resentment
against the warlike gesture involved
in the sending of the feet.

and will go long way towards rem
edying the evils which we have emu
merated here, The present strike is
not dealing with fundamental causes,
and it's settlement will settle practic-
ally nothing.
Private ownership's Result.
The same conditions will prevail af-
ter it's settlement, and continue as
long as the mines are privately own
ed and operated for private interests.
Other strikes Of the same character
will follow, with the same suffering,
chaos, starvation and despair.
The progressive miners will con-
tinue to fight for naturalization with
workers control, and will continue to
fight the Lewises until victory is
achieved.
The miners at that convention, and
at many more since and before that
convention, where they discussed ma
tionalization of the mines, pointed out
the fact that naturalization was a
political question, and that it was nee
essary for them to use their power to
establish a political party in the fur
therance of naturalization.
Officials Opposed Labor Party.
Accordingly, the miners have intro
duced resolutions at practically all
their conventions endorsing, and de-
handing the formation of a labor
party and instructing their officials
to work for that party.
The officials Of the union instead Of
working for labor party, have never
lost am opportunity to work against
it, and in the last election We saw
John L. Lewis, acting as campaign
committeeman for Coolidge on the re-
publican party, while Harrington

Illinois, and Green for the Wall Street

cappeIlini Turns His Coat.
The progressive miners have CON
tinuously worked for a labor party,
and in the last tri-district convention
were successful in having a resolu-
ton adopted indorsing the labor
party. However, we find Cappellini
president of District 1, of the United
Mine Workers in Scranton. a few
days ago at a meeting of the so-called
constitutional educational league re-
pudiating labor party and all in
connection with It.
The mine workers will continue to
fight for labor party, composed of
labor unions and like organizations Of
workers, on program of immediate
concrete demands, and will eventually
march to victory in spite OF all the
republicans, democrats, Green's, Lew
ises, Farringtons, and jails in Amer

Importance Of Credit.

I'VE realize the reluctance Of Ameri-

However, the giving of a certain am
cunt Of credit now means the install
lation of the manufacturers machin-
cry and continued orders in the future
whenever the machines are worn out,
in whole or in part, or additional ma
chimes are needed. American manu-
facturers should also realize that
while American banks refuse to ex-
tend them credit to do business in
Russia, the same American banks ex-
tend credit to German banks, which
in turn finance German manufacture
