CAPPELLINI MAKES SOME
PROMISES, BUT MINERS
FIND They ARE EMPTY

SCRANTON, Pa, Jan. 1.-THE
seriousness Of the unofficial anthra-
cite strike situation in District of
the United Mine Workers has led
President Rinaldo cappellIni to
offer the strikers the best terms he
has offered since the strike began.
The terms, conditional on the men
returning to work, are:
Prompt action by coneiIIiation
board on grievances which caused
the strike.
Full restoration of charters and
funds held up by the international
union when the charters were lifted.
Complete amnesty Of all leaders
of the strike.
Strikers opposing the cappeIIini
plan said it carried no certain as
surance that grievances would ac-
tualIy be adjusted, but was only
pledge that the grievances, which
are Of long standing, would be
"taken up"

per cent wage cut announced by the

Denouncing the employers for refus-

show the cost conditions on which
they base their wage reduction pro-
gram Campos closed, saying:
"At least the United Textile Work

To the DAILY WORKER:--A few
days previous to the late national elec'
tion l was looking out the window
and saw on the opposite side OF the
street a seedy looking individual en-
closed in monument of rags. He
shook like a victim having a con-
gested chill. The weather was severe
Apparently he had no particular des-
tination. The north wind whipped and
whisted thru his threadbare garments.
His feet were partly encased in a
wornout pair of hob-nail shoes, all OF
which made him resemble scarecrow
on pole waving in a Kansas cyclone
The poor fellow presented the scene
of withered woe. After few moments
/ remembered where / had seen once
in my life the duplicate of such mel.

vision a painting / had seen fifty
years ago, entitled 'The Bleak Shores
Of Labrador in Mid-Winter." Curiosity

gresS or the Union or Socialist Soviet

AS free, happy and prosperous Rus.
sia will be the unanswerable argu-
ment against capitalist exploitation
and oppression. That is why it
should be the aim of every class con-
scious worker to do all in his power
to help to make the workers republic
impregnable, to assist in its recon.
struction, thus Fastening the day of
the universal emancipation Of the
workers.
The above consideration was the
main reason for the organization of
the Technical Aid Society to Soviet
Russia which has sent many we'll
equipped groups to Russia and the
same reasons has also inspired a
number of workers in the building
trades of Los Angeles, Calf. to organ.
lie a cooperative building group. with
the object of migrating to Russia,
taking along with them the most mod
ern machinery used in the building in.
dustry as well as introducing Ameri-
can methods and labor saving devices.
The group is known as the Russia
American Construction Cooperation,
code name, "Racco." The group de-
cided to limit its membership to fifty
workers, and thot. one thousand dol.
lars per member the minimum share.
Outside Of this sum each member will
have to pay his own and his family's
(if any travelling and other expenses.
An application fee Of $40 is required
to cover incidental expenses in con-
nection with the organization work.
The group will consist of workers
| in every branch of the building trades
such as: Masons, bricklayers, carpen.
ters, plumbers, plasterers, electric
ians, painters, machinists, etc. We are
organizing this group under the guild
ance of the Technical Aid Society and
the central office of same will have
the final arrangements of departure
in their hands.
We invite all comrades who are in
position to join us to communicate
at once with the group secretary, A

COTTON MARKET
Migration of Negroes
Causes Labor Shortage
Especial to The Daily wOrkerI

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE
continued migration of the Negroes
from southern states to northern in
dustrial cities, endangering Americas
dominance of the world cotton mar
ket, a report issued by the agricu1tur-
al bureau of the chamber Of COM
merce Of the United States shows.
"Due to a steady migration of cot
ton belt Negroes to Industrial cen
ters of the north and east, there has
developed an acute labor shortage in
this region Of the UAited States" says
the report. The report shows a steady
decline in the production of cotton in
this country, and increased produc-
tion by foreign countries. Another
cause given for the decline is the
spread Of the boil weavel.
One of the strongest competitors of
the United States cotton producers
is the ring of cotton growers backed
by the British imperialist, Baldwin
government. The British government
recently suppressed an uprising Of
Sudanese cotton growers in Egypt
who rebelled against the conditions
OF slavery which exist on the British
cotton plantations along the Nile.

the Austrians are experiencing.
In Belgium the coal mines were
shut down by hard fought strike by
which the miners won an per cent
increase.
In Bulgaria wages remained low in
spite of the steadily mounting cost Of
living.
In Denmark the number of unem-
ployed has increased seasonally from
10000 in November to $4,000 in De-
cember. In the same month a year
ago there were $4,000 unemployed.
In Greece the large number of un-
employed Armenian and Greek re-
fugees from Turkey made it easy for
the government to break strikes in
1928 and 1924 without important con-
cessions to labor. AS a result wages
failed to keep pace with the cost Of
living which is still advancing.
In Lithuania wages of farm labor
ers are lower than a year ago with
farmers finding it difficult to pay ex-
penses and taxes.
In Norway the end of widespread
labor conflicts has been followed by
an increase in Industrial operations.
In Poland strikes have been fire.
Quent during 1924. In spite of this
fact foreign capital has been increas-
ing its hold, coming especially from
Italy and Great Britain.
In Portugal labor disturbances are
reported common.
In Roumania labor is suffering from
a severe depression with manufacture
ing industries running at so per cent
capacity.
In South Africa unemployment is
prevalent with both the national and
the local governments attempting
| projects to furnish employment. The
banks and mines are paying generous
dividends. The gold mines report
profits 25 per cent greater than 1923,
having introduced efficiency methods
to speed up productivity.
In Sweden employers decided to
lockout 100000 metal trades and tex
tile workers to combat demands for
wage increases. Lockouts of other
trades are expected and it is expect
ed that 65 per cent of Sweden's or
ganized labor will be affected. The
government has appointed an arbitra-
ton commission.
