Filibuster Threatens
Gals Program in
Ending of Congress

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE ssth
congress entered the home stretch OF
its legislative career today with the
administrations program for adjourn
ment March endangered by the
threat Of filibusters.
The threatened disruption came
from the senate where small but mill
tant minorities voiced bitter opposi-
tion to the republican program.
With only IA working days remain
ing, republican leaders ordered day
and night sessions in the senate.
The republican leadership however,
faced many obstacles and the proba-
bility that the closing days of con-
gress will be harassed by a series Of
filibusters. If this should occur, such
a legislative jam may follow as to
force the calling of an extra session
after March 4.

SENATE PUSHES
POSTAL BILL IN
JOINT MEETING

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE postal
rate war was renewed in congress to-
day when house and senate conferees
met for final action on the conflicting
bills passed by the two branches.
The senate bill, with low rates for
newspapers and the parcel post, would
raise approximately sSO,OO0,OoO. The
house measure, with higher rates on
these two services would bring in
about $61,000,O00 in additional revenue.
Both bills would provide Sos, $1,000 900
wage increase for postal employees.
The conferees sought to iron out
differences in the rates carried IN the
two measures. One source of conflict
was the corrupt practices act, added
by the senate as rider" to the bill,
after the house declined to take SINH
lar action.
Administration leaders hoped for an
agreement in conference in time to
re-enact the bill before adjournment.

CHILD LABOR
LAW Defeated
IN BAY STATE
Young Workers to Issue
Weekly Organ

BOSTON, Mass The Massachu-
setts senate has rejected the child
labor amendment to the federal con-
stitution by vote Of 33 to 1. This
overwhelming defeat of the amend
ment in the Massachusetts senate af-
ter it had already been defeated by
popular" vote, is significant in view
of the present situation in the textile
industry in this state.
Especially at the present time when
the textile magnates are cutting wag,
es and trying to smash the unions,
they cannot afford to take any chanc.
es of having child labor abolished.
Thousands of children running down
to the youngest imaginable age are
employed in the textile mills and it
is this large supply Of cheap labor on
which the textile bosses depend to
keep the wages of the older workers
down; for breaking strikes and as
lever for the forcing of wage cuts on
the textile workers.
Spending Thousands.
With the supply of cheap labor from
Europe greatly diminished as re-
suit of the immigration restrictions;
the textile bosses and manufacturing
associations of Massachusetts, are
willing to spend hundreds of thou
sands of dollars to be sure that no
limitations will be put on the supply
Of child labor in this state.
Leading the Fight.
The Young Workers League which
is fighting against the wage cuts in
Massachusetts, along with the Work
ers (Communist) Party; is leading
the fight against child labor in this
state. 1t is not only trying to organ
lie the youth and child laborers SO
that they will not scab on the older
workers, but thru its official organ,
The Young Worker, the league is
fighting the propaganda of the CAPT
talist press which has been even
worse here than in other states.
The textile bosses and other manu-
facturers of Massachusetts, mobilized
the whole press for scare cam
paign" only second to the Coolidge
or Chaos" scare campaign Of the re-
cent elections.
Weekly Worker.
The last issue of The Young Work
er is special child labor edition,
which will be widely distributed and
sold in this state. In the past, The
Young Worker has been greatly
handicapped since it appeared only
twice month, but stating with the
next issue it will begin publication
as weekly paper when 1t will be
able to intensity its campaign against
child labor in Massachusetts and thru
out the country.

SEATTLE LABOR
TAKERS PULLING
IN Their HORNS
Radicals Believe They
Are Bideing Time

SEATTLE, Feb. 17.--No attempt has
yet been made to carry out the de-
cision of the Central Labor Council,
to GUST the Communists by filing
charges against the Communist dele
gates. Paul X. Mohr, Communist dele
gate from the Bakers Union and a
veteran trade unionists, announced
that he intended to appear at the coun-
ell meetings as usual.
Several unions went on record
against the custer proceedings brand
ing the takers responsible for them
as disrupters and splitters. The, op-
position of the militants was so strong
that the reactionaries decided to pull
in their horns for the time being at
least. Radicals are not fooled by this
lull in the battle. They are Of the
opinion that the takers are only abid-
ing their time until more favorable
opportunity presents itself.
The Seattle Union Record was OBJ
liged to correct a news item in a
recent issue which gave the impress
sion that the Seattle Central Labor
Council had denounced the Michigan
defense and the Labor Defense Coun-
Gil, of which Mohr is an officer, instead
Of another organization.
