GARFIELD MAYOR.
KURLS THREATS
AT STRIKERS.
Judge Baker Flies Into
Rage at Textile Pickets
Especial to The Daily Worker)
BY J. o. 5ENTALL.

PASSAIC, N. j., Feb 2S-When the
Garfield councilmen voted to endorse
the Passaic strikers and concur in
their demands, the mayor and the
Judge left the chamber mad as wild
cats and swore that they would do
something or other that would please
themselves first and let the rest Of the
world go to hell.
It was the most dramatic event that
has occurred among the Flaw and or
der" element of the three towns.
Council Endorses Strike.
The mayor and city council of Gar
field had met to consider letter from
Organizer Weisbord and the united
front committee Of Textile Workers
relative to the strike. The letter re-
cited that members of the council had
at another meeting expressed them
selves as entirely endorsing the de-
mands made by the strikers, and said
openly that the demands were en-
tirely fair and just.
When Organizer Weisbotd appeared
before this body, he was not lonesome,
for the hall was packed tight with
workers who wanted to know what
would be done.
1t proved DO be more interesting
than had been anticipated, for the
members Of the council voted unani-
mously to stand by the strikers and
endorsed most of their demands
pledgiDg support to the strikers and
calling the police to order for their
brutality and their interference.
This looked good till the mayor
bobbed up and declared that the
mayor had no sympathy with the
strikers and that he expected to keep
on doing just as he had done and
would let the police club the strikers
whenever they went out to picket.
With the mayor stood the judge or
recorder as he is called, before whom
the strikers have had to appear and
be insulted Judge Baker went into
a rage like a will bull, hurled some
vicious glances in the direction of
Weisbord, and blurted out, THE soon
er you get out of town the better I'll
like it,"
When the strikers met in their
strike meeting they were asked if
they wanted him to leave. A storm Of
nos indicated that there was no desire
to have anybody drive him out.
who would you like to see as far
away as the pepper grows?" asked
.Bentall as he addressed the strikers.

Mine STRIKE
EXPECTED IN
BRITAIN SOON
Workers Alliance Is
Ready for Battle

LONDON, Feb. 29-The publication
Of the, coal commission report is be-
ing eagerly awaited here. The com.
mission appointed by the government
to Investigate the industry and the
claims Of the operators for wage
slash has been in sssion for several
months.
The commission was part of the
government scheme along with sub
sidy to the owners to prevent a wage
cut last July which would have pre-
cipitated a general strike of miners,
transport workers and railroaders.
In the sessions of the commission
the Representatives Of the coal owners
have insisted on the necessity of
lower wages. The leaders Of the
Miners Federation of Great Britain
produced evidence showing the enor-
nous profits of the operators, and
have declared that they will not ac-
cept wage cut under any circum-
stances. 's afe
Workers. Alliance Formed.
The partial victory OF the miners
last July in preventing wage cut
has been followed up by the lorna
ton of Workers Alliance which in
cludes the unions of the transport
workers, miners and railroad men all
pledged to strike If one is, attacked
by the bosses. The leaders of the
Miners Federation have toured the
country warning the miners and
other workers of the possibility of a
general strike if the owners attempt
to put wage cut into effect. A. J.
Cook, secretary of the union, has
been particularly active in this work
and has been denounced by the CAPT.
talist press as a consequence.
The British capitalists view the
Workers Alliance with apprehension,
and fear that a general strike will
paralyze industry. The conservative
Baldwin government, is preparing the
government machinery for the COM
ing struggle with the intention of
smashing all working class opposition
to the bosses campaign to lower the
standard of living of the working
class. es

the diplomatic corps and officials Of

today over the prospects of a sena-

elusion Of Countess karolyi, wife Of
