Dinhofer Broth ers'
Jewelry Workers Must
Organize Into Union
BY a Worker Correspondent.

6 NEW YORK, May 31.-The work
ers of Dinhoffer Brothers, jewelry
manufacturers, located at $50 LaFay-
cite street, are one of the most ex-
plotted in the jewelry trade in New
York. This exploitation is due to the
fact that the jewelry workers are I'M
organized. ~
8 Workers change very quickly in this
shop. When the company advertises
for several workers about 100 appear
for the job. The company, seeing that
there are more workers than jobs, cuts
the wages of those that are at work.
Wages have been cut so that the work
ers are able to make but from $12 to
S25 a week. Most of the workers
work for wages that are closer to the
$12 figure.
The jewelry workers, in order to
better their conditions, must unionfze
their industry and fight the bosses for
better working conditions.

Bishop Brown Loses
Court Fight Against
Deposition Decree

NEW YORK, May 31.-Bishop Will
liam Montgomery Brown, famous for
his book on "Christianism and Com.
munism" and cordially hated by the
capitalist cliques in his own church,
the Protestant Episcopal, has lost his
court fight to force reinstatement in
the church from which he had been
removed by the church's synod o.
bishops for being too radical to be a
bishop.
Bishop Brown started proceedings
against the organization officers to
restrain them from enforcing the depo-
sition decree, naming William w.
Skiddy as treasurer of the church
and holder of the church property in
which Bishop Brown had pension
er's interest as a retired clergyman.
The court decree practically upholds
the contention of the church that
Skiddy was not the treasurer, that it
owned no such property as specified
and that the edict of deposition made
by the church was one from an eccle-
siastical body over which the civil
courts have no jurisdiction.

While the average hourly rate of

kept at piece-work speed by the chain

around from one job to another till
one is found that he can fit into. His

Bad Hospital Facilities.
Company doctors and company hos
pital facilities at the plant are pro-
vided for accidents, for which the
worker must pay after a period of
time. Accidents are very numerous.
The beds are continuously filled. Often
injured workers must be taken else
where. In one instance a worker COM
planned that he had not received prop
er treatment in the hospital. At this
the doctor swore at him and told him
he was drunk, and ordered him out Oh

LOSE JOBS FOR

Willys-Overland Puts

TOLEDO, o., May 31.-A number of

to contribute to the Community Chest
Fund. This Community Chest Fund is
a bosses charity organization. It
opened a campaign to raise $3.50, 900.
The Willys-Overland Company i'm.

$4,000 donation. Word was then sent
around the plant that every worker
was expected to donate SIS apiece or
lose their jobs.
Fire Workers.
Many of the workers, fearing the
loss Of the jobs, donated the SIS. A
number of workers refused to donate
to this boss-controlled charity institu-
ton. In few days after their re-
fusal they were laid off. The foremen
gave as their excuse that work was
slack. Many of the workers laid off
were highly skilled and had worked
for the company for five years or
more.
2 When these workers sought work,
despite stereotyped stories of pros
perity and the urgent need of. work
ers in the Toledo Times, they were
unable to get job. Everywhere they
were turned down. A number of them,
suspecting that the company had put
them on a blacklist, changed their
names and found jobs.

All Communists Must Be

important rule that without a trade

only passive trade unionists. In Ger
many there are still many party mem
bers outside the trade unions and
most of those who are in the unions
avoid the petty work. The Comintern
cannot permit this. All Communists,
under penalty of expulsion, must not
only be members of the unions but
they must do useful work in them.
In conclusion the speaker request
