INTERNATIONAL SEAMEN'S STRIKE
GRIPS WORLD TRADE OF BRITAI

LONDON, Sept. 2o.-The shipping
companies are discussing a COM
plete cancellation Of saIIlngs owing
to the general "outIaw" strike OF
seamen against the wage cut Of s5
per month, which the companies i'm.
posed beginning September I. In
spite Of the fact that Havelock VIII
son, reactlonary head Of the con.
servation NJ. s. u, signed an agree
ment to accept the cut, the MEM
bers Of his union are on strike.
The companies hate to surrender
to the strikers, but on the other
hand, the trade Of the British en-.
pire Is being rapidly destroyed by
the strike. The threat to cancel all
sallings indefinitely is probably
bluff to make the strikers think
that the companies are "nolng out
Of business" rather than grant the
strikers demands. Strikers regard
this as ludlerous.
From Melbourne cable reports
say that new and more serious labor
trouble Is ahead as Premier Bruce
announced the dissolution OF parlia-
ment and the calling Of general
election as a result Of the seamen's
strike. This is said to have been
caused by the state prenlers' failing
TO support 5ruee's terrorlstlo pro-
possls and measures taken TO break

INJURED men

Steel Trust safety"
Talk Is the Bunk
fRx Worker correspondent.l J

GARY, Ind, Sept. 2o--Two Gary
steel mill workers, Eddie santon and
Charles Wissenberg, were badly
burned at their work and were rushed
to the steel company hospital in an
ambulance for treatment. These two
workers were connecting an oil
switch while working over live wires
which accidentally became crossed,
causing flash that burned the arms
and faces of the two men.
The Gary mills print a small
pamphlet, The Circle, every two weeks
for the benefit" of its employees,
which pamphlet seems to be very So
fictitious about safety for its employees,
but if the officials had put in safety
device this accident would not have
happened.
After this occurrence, which had
endangered the lives of two men, the
steel company did put in a safety
device, but nevertheless they dis
charged the injured men after they
were released from the hospital charg-
ing that the men were "inefacient."
Accident Shut Down Whole MIL.
The accident damaged the electric
power system in the mill to such an
extent that most of the departments
using electric power were forced to
shut down until extensive repairs
could be made. The rolling mills and
other mills in which electric power is
used to operate the large steel making
machinery were without sufficient
power to operate from about 4:3o in
the afternoon until some time after
midnight.
About p. m. sufficient power was
obtained from an electric power plant
in S. Chicago to furnish lights within
the plant but it was then four hours
later before the power system had
been re-established so that the vari.
Gus mills could operate normally.
The power system breakdown also
had its effect on the Gary Heat, Light
and Water company which receives
its power from the U. S. Steel COM
pany plant.
Workers Always Blamed.
After the. accident, Superintendent
Gleason appointed an assistant super
intendent to make an Investigation,
the result being that two men, who
had been doing this kind of work for
the last five years, found themselves
without work because of "inefici.
ency."
This accident has caused many
workers to ask why it is that they
are always responsible for all the ac-
cidents and taking this opportunity
members of our shop nucleus are tell
ing them the reason.

The labor movement is in a deep

union officialdom are showing them
selves completely incapable of meet
ing the difficult situation. Under their
guidance the unions are either falling
to pieces or rotting with B. and o.
plans and other schemes of class
collaboration. Upon the left wing falls
the full burden Of giving lead to the
organized workers and of laying the
basis Of organization among the vast
masses of unorganized. In fulfilling
this task the left wing, weak in num-
bers and attacked on every side, has
innumerable problems to solve and
obstacles to overcome. To meet the
situation, it is necessary that there
be great national conference of
trade union progressives and revolu-
tionaries, which shall map out the
program of the left wing and
strengthen its organization. The T.
U. E. L. general conference offers such
a meeting. Therefore, let every local

important in the history of the Trade

Ing advantage Of this, the British

The shipping companies have to pay

Newark and Baltimore. Solid
Port Newark reports that all trans

more, Maryland reports show that
even the capitalist papers admit that
the tieup is one of the most complete
ever seen in that port. Mass meetings
are being held and effective picket
work is engaged in despite police in
terference.
A meeting of striking seamen held
last Thursday at the water front was
addressed by Rebecca Grecht, of the
Workers (Communist) Party. This
was the first public meeting of the
union addressed by a Communist.
There were about 200 strikers in at
tendance, who received with enthusi-
asm every mention of the necessity
for an international united front
against the capitalist offensive.
Rebecca Grecht Speaks to Strikers.
The speaker showed how the attack
by the ship owners against the sea-
men is part of the world wide assault
of capitalism against the standards of
living Of the workers, and emphasized
the need for national and international
unity of labor's forces. She pointed
out how the present international sea-
mems strike is an expression of the
increasing militancy Of the workers in
defense of their interests, and of their
growing solidarity. The seamen were
urged to stand by their union in it's
struggle against the shipping trust
one of the most powerful capitalist
combines, and receiving the official
backing Of the United States govern
ment.
The Workers (Communist) Party of
District No. 2 stands fully behind the
strike, and is backing the strikers f.
financially and otherwise. Regular
mass meetings of strikers are held
every evening at South street and
Coenties Slip. All revolutionary
workers. are invited to attend.
U. S. Government Leads seab Scale.
Altho the shipping board, according
to statements of Admiral Leigh c.
Palmer, head of the Emergency Fleet
lcorporation, has cut operating ex-
penses about $14,0OO,OOO and is now
running 299 ships as compared with
S41 year ago, it's vessels are carry
ing practically the same tonnage and
do good business on all routes, says
Palmer.
The /, w, w. strikers are asking
why the shipping board still refuses
to give the seamen better conditions
and, higher wages if this is the case.
The usual plea that they have to COM
pete with foreign bottoms with cheap
er labor don't hold good any longer.
This is clear from the fact that the
French and Danish steamship COM
pany has granted all demands and
now pays much higher wages and so
on than does the shipping board-and
if the company couldn't make profit
on that basis it would not have
granted the I. w. w. demands.

TAX RATE OF S1.70 URGED.
Trade Board Suggestion Based on
Expected Lump Appropriation

The Washington Board of Trade
through it's board of directors yester-
day recommended a tax rate of s1.70
for the District of Columbia for 1926
q. This recommendation was based
on the supposition that Congress
would appropriate a lump sum of at
least $4,000 toward the upkeep Of
the National Capital.
While this figure for the tax rate
disagrees with that suggested by the
Citizens Advisory Council. which
recommended a rate of S1.S5. it is
estimated that by the S1.70 rate and
all revenues $3S,500,o00 could be
raised for local expenditure.
Realizing that many of the recon.
mendations for civic improvements
made by the board would mean a
very large increase in the tax rate,
the directors of the Board of Trade
have referred the question as to what
projects the organization will recon-
mend for, immediate attention to the
officers of the board.
Daniel j. Donovan, the District
auditor, furnished the data to the
directors, representing Commissioner
Bell. In approving the tax rate the
directors have approved the recon-
mendations of the subcommittee of
the boards committee on municipal
finance.
