MELBOURNE - (FP) - Fascism is
steadily gaining Roadway in Australia.
According to statements by its chief
organizer, Capt. Hatcher, its members
are all supporters of the federal gov
eminent, while the organization is re-
ceiving assistance from the big bust
ness elements behind the government.
Hatcher is a government employe.
A manifesto recently issued by
Hatcher set out that the fascists are
a semi-military body, and intend to
line up on the side of the government
against extremists and agitators."
That the fascists are in league with
the government is made clear in an
article by William Davies, British
newspaper-owner who recently visited
Australia. Davies said that while in

NEWARK STRIKE
Greek Priest Acts as
Scab Herder

NEWARK, N. j., April - Tho six
injunctions have been granted so far
to the Hellenic-American Restaurant
Owners Association OF New Jersey
in an attempt to crush the strike of
the walters organized in the Greek
Workers Club, the strike enters its
third week with an increased deter
mination on the part Of the strikers
to win all their demands.
The Greek restaurant workers start
ed an organization campaign about
two months ago. They succeeded in
organizing about 300 workers. They
organized independently but before
going on strike they joined the Amer
lean Federation of Labor union for
restaurant workers.
Walters Make Mild Demands.
The striking walters demand a 10
hour day, day week and the recogni-
ton of their union. These demands of
the Greek waters were called "radi-
cal" by the restaurant owners and the
owners began to rave that the strike
was caused and engineered by out
siders" and "bolsheviks." Large ads
have been published by the restaurant
bosses in the capitalist press attack
ing the striking workers.
Priest Aids Bosses.
The. Greek priest Spyridskis of New
ark has been appointed as chief
"strikebreaker" by the Hellenic-Amer-
lean Restaurant Owners Association.
They held a meeting in the Greek
church laying plans for crushing the
strike Of the walters.
The Greek workers in general and
the restaurant workers in particular
are furious against this action of the
priest, who undertook to break their
strike. This resentment has increased
since they saw him accompanying a
: strike-breaker to the Lincoln restau-
rant They went in together thru
the front door pushing thru the "pick-
ct line"
Greek workers are asking, what
business has priest to interfere with
