PANGALOS' RULE
JAILS WORKERS
IRON HEEL is SUPREME IN
BRITISH-RUN GREECE

ATHENS, Greece, (By Mail)-on
January 4, General Pangalos pro.
claimed the military dictatorship in
Greece on the instruction of England
and made it his duty to prosecute not
only the Communist Party, but all or
CARNATIONS of the workers, peasants
and ex-soldiers. From the day of the
establishment Of the dictatorship up
to February 8, more than so workers
and peasants were arrested and ex-
lied. The arrests, however, have con-
tinued since that time and accord
ing to the latest orders, all those
should be arrested without distinc-
tion, who have participated in one
way or the other in the labor move
ment during the last two years.
At present 145 comrades are in Jail
and 80 in exile. The prisoners re-
ceive very bad food and the exiles on
the islands nothing at all despite the
fact that they should receive Drach-
men per day according to law. Com
mon criminals, who were exiled re-
ceive this sum.
News has come from Athens, that
the 16 comrades who were arrested
there recently, were terribly Wiped.

of the central organ of the Commun-
list Party, was beaten for a whole

Show Piles Up Profits;
Try to Cut Actors Wage

NEW YORK, March 24.-Even &C
tors are asked to take wage cuts, the
latest issue of Equity, Actors Equity
Association journal, points out. And
"the most unkindest cut of all" is
when the cut is made with an in
creasingly prosperous show, the mag.
azine comments. An actor in a GER
tain New York comedy which prom
Used a profitable run to its manager
was given 33 per cent cut.
Protesting, the worker found that
the show was not being run by the
man he thought, but by William Fox,
one Of the moving picture potentates
whose offer to finance Broadway pro-
ducers for a controlling interest in
their plays for movie production
pushed the playwrights and dramat-
lists into an organization demanding
protection. When the actor refused
to take the wage cut, pointing imper-
tinently ESQ Fox must have thot) to
the shows piling profits, he was given
two weeks notice to leave. But the
actor won in the end and kept the
job at the old pay.
Equity, the actors union, says II
recognizes wage cuts only to carry a
potentially profitable production over
a bad Stretch" and not as source
Of managerial profit, which may be
tapped upon all occasions"

SCRANTON STREET
CARMEN HANDED
SOP BY BOSSES
Union Officials Betray
Rank and File

SCRANTON, Pa. Up March
"a - One-man car operators gain 20
cents a day, instead of the % cents
an hour sought, by the one-year agree
ment signed by the local trolley work
ers' union and the company. The one
man carmen get their increase by
being paid for time between leaving
the car at the barn and reporting to
the office, about half an hours trip for
which they were not previously paid.
They are supposed to get specified
lunch periods which they demanded,
altho pay for time going to the barn
from the Office on beginning work is
denied them.
No Increases for Others.
The rest Of the street car workers
are to continue at the old rates in
stead of getting the IL to II cent in
creases asked. Bus drivers get SO
cents an hour instead of the 70 cent
rate sought, and now paid one-man
car operators. Barnmen and trackmen
do not get their II and 16 cents more,
respectively, nor do two-man car oper-
ators getting So, 61s and 81 cents
(after years service) get their IL
cent raise. Barnmen are expected to
benefit by changed working hours.
The trolley workers complained at
the mass meeting to accept or reject
the agreement that the company could
afford to make many small improve
ments in working conditions without
adding much cost. They mentioned the
need of shower baths in the barn so
that they can clean and refresh them
selves after work; the need of stools
for motormen; the need of door
handles; and the abolition of basket
tenders which must be carried from
one end of the car to the other after
each one-way trip, tearing and wear
ing clothes considerably.
Officials Force Ratification
Union officials, following company
arguments, told the workers that troll
ley men in other cities were accept
ing wage cuts or continuing to work
at old rates. (The Philadelphia Rapid
Transit is the latest, cutting it's COM
pany union burdened men 81 cents
an hour.) The workers and union Of
ficials argued for more than two and
a half hours before the pact was rati-
fed and adjournment taken at a. m.
to give morning shift operators time
to get their cars out.

Northwestern Gets
Gift of $4,000 900

Mrs. Montgomery Ward, of Chicago,
has announced further gift Of $4,000
900 to Northwestern University, max
ing total from her of $s,0OO,OOO. The
money is being used to provide build
ing for the McKinloch campus at the
lake and Chicago Ave. Part of it will
be apportioped as the basis for an
endowment fund to assure the salaries
of the staff of the medical and dental
faculties.
The gift is in the form of a transfer
Of securities worth $4,OOO,OOO. AS the
dividends which will furnish the in
come are derived from the exploita-
ton of labor in some form, the gift
really amounts to handing the uni
versity authorities a perpetual right
to continue such exploitation. It
secures the support of the school and
all those connected with it for the
present social system by making them
directly dependent on the steady flow
of dividends.
