THE PHILOSOPHY OF A FOOL

There is nothing more disconcerting
to a real trade unionist than to hear
one Of these "card men" proclaim his
intention to drop the union because
of some fancied grievance. This
variety Of half union man is to be
found in all unions, and is one Of the
worst influences that labor has to con-
tend against. Always, he is fore
most in advocating strike and often
he is the first to sneak back on the
job. He is in class with the cow
ardly soldier who is>ever ready to de-

BE A TRUE UNIONIST

Don't patronize scab BARRIERS, and
see to it that family acts likewise
See to it also that your money is
spent for groceries in other than non

necessities in non-union grocery and
meat stores when there are so many

and where the union store card is
displayed. Stand up for your .unior

roof lines. which present a varied
number of exposures and angles, are
of cypress shingles and are also Of

effective. The brick chimney shafts
are set at an angle of A. degrees to
one another.

YOUNG WORKERS
LEAGUE STIRS
UP BALTIMORE
Umbrella Factory Has
Rotten Conditions
BY THOMAS N. AMERKINc.
Especial 70 The Daily Worker.l

BALTIMORE, Nd, March 1.-Two
members and one sympathizer Of the
Young Workers League Of this city
employed at the POLAND and Katz
umbrella factory were fired from
their jobs because they dared to
raise voices of protest against the
rotten conditions and starvation wag-
es by appealing to the workers to or
ganize themselves into trade union.
The workers of the umbrella fac
tories here are miserably exploited
and are compelled to work under
most greedy conditions imaginable.
Employees on time work are paid from
81 to So a week, and even those who
really rush themselves to death at
piece work can make no more than
SIS to SIT a week.
Overtime Slaves.
The workers Of the shop are sup
posed to work nine hours day, the
doors Of the factory suppose to open
at o'clock in the morning. But
one usually finds the workers Shaving
at their benches shortly after a. m.
One also finds the boys and girls in
the shop working during the half hour
allotted for lunch.
The workers are compelled to put
in this extra time in order to earn a
starvation wage which is hardly
enough to keep one alive. The greedy,
owners of the shop do not care to
keep it clean and sanitary, the ven
tilation is poor, the floors remain I'M
swept for several days. 1t was against
these rotten conditions that the mem
bers of the Young Workers League
called upon the shop to prepare to
protest.
Y. W. L. Calls Meeting.
A leahet was issued by the shop
nucleus of the Young Workers
League called all the workers Of the
shop to mass meeting to discuss the
question Of organizing a union. The
workers began to think and the boss
es became alarmed. The members of
the Young Workers League were i'm
mediately called to the office and
fired"
The agents Of the bosses were sta
toned at the doors of the hall to see
who would come to the meeting. Po-
lice were stationed at the factory
gate to see that no leaflets or copies
of the Young Worker are distributed.
Are We Dlsheartened? Mol
The action of the bosses did not in
the least discourage the members Of
the league, but rather encouraged
them to keep up the fight against ex-
ploitation and starvation wages.
The workers are called upon to
support the Young Workers League
and Workers Party, to read their
official organs-the Young Worker
and the DAILY WORKER and to at
tend the Young Workers League
meetings that are held at 1135 East
Baltimore St., second floor, every
