Hungary Abolishes
Eight-Hour Day and

BUDAPEST, Aug. S.-Only a few

tary of the Hungarian Federation of
Trade Unions, in report to the In
ternational Federation of Trade
Unions.

"The chief aims of our unions have
level, and to obtain the eight-hour
day" he reports; "but neither of these
objects has yet been achieved. 1t is
true that, thanks to their own efforts.
most trades did win the eight-hour day
some time ago. But the extensive I'M
employment which has now devastated
Hungary for some years past has en-
abled employers to lengthen working
hours again.
Where this has not already been
done, efforts are being made to do it.
Only in a few trades, such as the
printing and allied industry, have the
workers collective agreements behind
them, which secure them both better
wages and the eighthour day."

Boosted Freedom

The glib defender of anti-unionism
knows which side his bread is but

His favorite claim is CLOSED shop"
Of the trade unions.
But note his silence when the en-
ployer compels workers to join his
company 'union." This is different,
likewise awkward for propagandists
who have builded on sand.
The New York subway strike re-
veals that every worker must join
that company union" Employees have
no option. They must affiliate or not
work. Dues are deducted by the COM
pany.
Where are this gentry who write
voluminous and ponderous advice to
trade unionists?
Do the propagandists call attention
to these things? Certainly not. The
employer is their best customer. He
buys their pamphlets on the advan-
tages of company unions" to dis
tribute to employees.
To tell the facts of the company
union" is unprofessional. 1t is too
good meal ticket to be exposed
There is nothing undemocratic in
unions insisting that workers in every
trade and calling assist in maintain
ing work conditions.
Society itself rests on this theory.
Neither would 1t be wrong to apply
this principle to the company union
were it not founded on dishonesty. To
compel men to be party to that dis
honesty only expands the deceit.
The company union" is maintained
by the employer. He owns. controls
and directs. 1t is his property. 1t
is intended to pre-empt the field and
keep out the legitimate unions.

With straw bosses and company IA
vorites in key positions of the COM

Even wage reductions are secured

Employers are delighted with their
latest anti-union plan. It is so smooth,
so simple, so inexpensive. II has the
outward appearance of a trade union.
Propagandists complete the job by
drugging both workers and the public.

directed the All-Russian Tcheka, the
irresistible, death-dealing weapon
against all the enemies of the toilers.
From those days on, Comrade Deer
zhinski was the object of the hatred
of all traitors, hangmen and white
guards and of the blind rage of the
crushed counter-revolution He was
the object of the proud admiration and
love of the toilers Of the whole world.
After the end of the civil war, Com
rade Dzerzhinski devoted all his en-
ergies to the reconstruction of Soviet
territory. AS peoples commissary for
railways and communications he brot
about the rebirth of the chaotic trans
port conditions. AS president of the
supreme council of national economy
he was at the head of the struggle for
the development towards socialism.
His last words, spoken only a few
hours before his death, were devoted
to the maintenance of Lenin's herit-
age, the victory of socialism, the work
of the international proletarian revo-
luton.
Comrade Dzerzhinski, the closest
battle comrade of Rosa Luxembourg,
the loyal pupil and associate of Lenin,
belongs to the International proleta-
riat as much as to the Russian, Polish
and Lithuanian workers. His tireless,
infinitely varied labor, his organizing
genius, his never vascillating loyalty
to the party, his exemplary life of
struggle, and his courage must con-
tinue to live deeply-rooted in the con-
seriousness Of all Communists, of all
workers, Of all those who toll.
After Lenin and Frunze we have
lost Dzerzhinski.
The losses are irreparable. But
their work lives and will continue to
live.

OPEN SHOPPER
WITH A STRIKE
Boss Arrested Workers
as Police Captain
BY ART SHEDS. Federated Press


NEW YORK, Aug. S.-Losing his
diamond-studded police captains
badge and the power to arrest his
employees that went with it, spelled
defeat for Henry Fruhauf, leading
open shop clothing manufacturer, in
his contest with the union. A sharp

Workers. 1t is the unions most i'm

Co. and j. L. Taylor & Co. earlier in
the year.
Bitter Open Shopper.
Fruhauf was one of the capitalists
that Mayor Hylan favored with spe-
cial police title-he was a captain
and the clothing manufacturer used
his power effectively in the union
fighting game. He first broke with
the Amalgamated in the 1921 strike
and lockout and fought it ever since
till the present settlement.
AS an officer in the clothing manu-
facturers' association he preached the
gospel of the open shop in and out of
season and boosted to his fellow
bosses of his ability to go it alone
In 1924 when the general body of
clothing manufacturers of New York
joined with the union in setting up ar
bitration machinery, presided over by
an impartial chairman, Fruhauf con.
tinued to run his shops in dictatorial
fashion.
Boss Was the Government.
When the union struck his plants in
1924 and production ceased Fruhauf
displayed his police captains badge
as the pickets passed by and directed
patrolmen in the falling of the more
active spirits. As a police captain he
defeated the 1924 strike that as a
simple manufacturer he would have
lost.

They Must Haze Help

One of the greatest industrial bat
ties in history is being waged by the
miners of Great Britain to prevent the
further degrading of the already des-
perate conditions forced upon them by
low wages and unemployment.
The organized mine workers are
carrying on their fight courageously
despite the calling off of the general
strike. But they are fighting against
desperate odds.
Four million men, women and chill
dren face starvation. Hunger is the
greatest menace they have to face.
We in America can help our British
brothers win. If they are driven back
to the mines to work under terrible
conditions and at pitiful wages we
cannot escape the consequences, of
their defeat.
The present lockout comes at the
end of period when earnings ranged
from s11 to SIS week. In only a few
sections is any lockout benefit being
paid. The vast majority of miners are
entirely dependent upon relief from
outside sources.
The demands for help from home
are many and the need is great. Our
own miners in the bituminous fields
are faced with a situation almost as
desperate as that which faces the Brit
ish miners. But in the face of their
own great need the United Mine
Workers Union is sending contribu-
tions to their British brothers.

nately situated do less?-The Railway
