About New Castle, Pa.

NEW CASTLE, Pa, Aug. 29.-The
Boggs Foundry and Machinery Com
pany has installed a new moulding
machine unit and where they formerly
employed $50 skilled moulders they
now employ so laborers at laborers'
wages. They employ many boys in
the work. The skilled workers re-
ceived $8 per day on the average.
The moulding machines turn out
about IS per cent perfect castings.
The superintendent was highly
pleased with the work of the ma
chimes, and as he chortingly said: mo
need to worry as in the old days
whether the moulders come out to
work in the morning or not. Let the
machine do the work" The machines

same as the machines in a tableware

" SN'oV Pei nOul. 4uSSo wages, as
compared with those OF other trades
demanding the same amount Of skill,
are quite low. The reason the build
ing trades have been able to get their
dollar and half an hour is because
of organization, says Business Agent
John Werlik of Local No. Of the
Metal Polishers, and the same thing
can be done by the polishers.
Werlik stated in an interview with
representative of The DAILY
WORKER that his union was pretty
well organized in and around Chicago,
but that a still more complete sol;dar-
ity should be obtained at the pres
ent time when fairly steady employ
ment makes a favorable condition for
growth.
Makes Man Of You.
The Metal Polishers' International
Union has much to offer the workers.
1t has already demonstrated its use
fulness by changing the entire status
Of its members. Formerly a worker
in this trade was regarded by his
employer as unskilled labor. He was
paid starvation wages; he worked
ten or twelvelhour day; he was al
lowed no washing-up time; there were
no blowers installed to carry away
the dust that results from his opera
tons and that cuts his lungs TO pieces
IL 1t is breathed for long. He was
also at the mercy of arbitrary dis
missal by the boss.
5000 Raise In Wages.
Now the metal polisher gets, not
such a wage as he should, but about
four times what he did get i'll the days
before the union, and puts in an
eight-hour day at the most. Polishing
rooms are no longer dark holes any
where out of the road, but must be
open to the sunlight and must have
at least some arrangements for carry
ing away the dangerous dust. There
are grievance committees which the
boss has to consider.
One of the most important fights
Of the union at present is to force
the Illinois state factory inspection to
function In this matter of blowers.

SHOE WORKERS

WAGE DEMANDS
Boot and Shoe Locals
Compelling Action

LYNN, Mass, Aug. 29.-Both the
iasters' local and the stitchers' local
of the Boot and Shoe Workers Union
have appointed committees to confer
with the manufacturers for 25 per
cent wage increase, after first re-
ferring it to the executive board Of
the crafts, as provided in the boot
and shoe workers constitution. The
stitehers' local voted unanimously for
the increase.
other Crafts Join Move.
The niggerhead operators have had
their increase confirmed by the state
board, and the wage demands of the
lasters and stitchers is expected to be
followed by similar demands from
other crafts.
The stitchers also voted to call a
mass meeting Of all stitchers in Lynn,
to include both the unionized and the
unorganized workers OF the craft, to
get united action in support of the
wage demand.
Reaetlonary Element Opposes.
Meanwhile, both the making room
local OF the. Boot and Shoe Union and
the packers and fnishers' local have
called for meetings and 1t is expected
similar wage demands will be brought
forward In both meetings. The reac-
tionary element in the union is bit
terly opposing the wage movement
The stitchers' local also sent a COM
munication to Governor Fuller, de-
handing n new trial for Sacco and
vanzetti, and appointed committee
TO gather strike relief for the British
miners.

The state law provides that in all
places where metal is polished, there
shall be blowers which consist of a
fan and tubes for carrying the flying
refuse out of doors, or boxes in which
it gan be confined. The employers
gladly avoid the small cost of INSTALL
ing such apparatus, preferring 20 hire
new polishers when the old ones die
of silicosis.
Force Law Enforcement.
But the officials of the union are
always busy pushing the investigators
on to their work, and forcing the fac
tory owners to comply with the law.
Metal polishing is dangerous work
anyway. Not only dust, but poison.
Gus fumes from plating operations, al
so performed by members OF this I'M
ion, make life miserable and require
organized effort in the way Of secur-
ing shorter hours and high enough
wage to enable proper hygienic mea-
sures and proper food to build resist
ance in the bodies of the workers.
All workers who are employed in
metal polishing, buffing, or plating
any kind Of metal work are invited
by Business Agent Werlik TO come
around TO the headquarters of Local
No of the Metal Polishers' Inter
national Union, at 119 South Throop
St., and talk the situation over.
The next mass meeting for work
ers in the trade will be on Sept. 2,
at p. m, in Stefanik's Hall, 14O1 W.
Superior, Chicago. On account of the
number of Polish speaking workers
among the metal polishers, one Of
the speakers, B. X. Gebert, editor OF
the Tribuna Rabotnicza, of Chicago,
will speak in Polish. There will also
be speeches in English.

ed to picket them. Now, however,
quite a number of scabs come out of
these gates and the denial by the

means that the mill owners can
send all OF their scabs thru these

tice was established Of having q pick

These things Chief zober conveniently
overlooks but we shall not permit him
to overlook them for long. The tests
are going on. We shall try to get the
most prominent people we can from
New York City to continue the tests.
Legal action will be taken and we
shall again prove to the entire country

PASSAIC, N. j., Aug. 20. - Albert
Weisbord strike organizer, issued the
following statement to-day in connec-
ton with the recent police attacks on
strike pickets:
Continuing his Cossack tactics,
Chief zober ordered his police to club
in the heads of innocent strikers and
their sympathlzers who were peace
fully walking from the hall at rs Day
ton Ave. going about their business.
Nobody knew whether. the lines OF

going to picket the gates OF the Bo-
tany, nor did anyone know what gates
were going to be picketed, but with
out making single inquiry or desir-
ing to find out anything the police be-
gan their british attacks. It seems
that again zober has displayed his
anxiety TO send the Constitution of the
United States to hell.
To Continue Fight.
"The picket lines that were broken
up were going to picket several gates
OF the Botany mill where before police
had refused to allow picket lines to
picket These gates were only recently
opened. Never having been opened

Although quite unaware of it, Mas
ter George Lascelles, elder son of
Princess Mary, has begun to set fash
ions at the tender age of three.
At a recent needlework exhibition,
Princess Mary admired a dressing
gown of pale blue flannel decorated
with white kittens, whiskers and all.
Appliqued kittens were on the sleeves
and front, and a kitten peeped out
from each pocket. The princess made
purchase of one of these gowns,
with slippers to match, and now all
small boys of the smart set-or at
least all mothers of small boys in
the smart set-want to have dress

LONDON, April 24.-The American
woman is the best groomed woman
in the world, in the opinion of Sir
John Lavery of the Royal Academy
of Art, who has just returned from
the United States, where he painted
many portraits.
Sir John, who was accompanied by
Lady Lavery, said he had it on the
authority of his wife that the ,Ameri-
can women spend nearly all of their
time on dress"
Many of the women, he said, al
though wealthy, do not have maids,
because they prefer to look after
their own clothing"
Sir John is a great admirer of
New York City. He maintains that
the beauty of the American metrop-
oils is considerably enhanced when it
is yelled in clouds of smoke, as was
often the case when he was there
during the hard coal strike.
Il can do more work in America in

PARIS, April 24-Comoedia the
Paris daily which deals only with
things theatrical and the fine arts,
is exerting itself to have Mary Gar
den invited to sing at the opera in
recognition of the work she has done
in behalf of French opera in Amer
lea.
Miss Garden is to sing Melissande
at the opera comique, where she
created the role and will find the
composer, Andre Massager, once more
holding the conductors baton. Co.
moedia finds in this celebration a
delicate homage both to the veteran
composer and to a singer who has
valiantly defended French musical
art, but does not consider that it is
sufficient.
Comoedia suggests that as the Ma
tional Academy of Music, the official
name for the Paris opera, is pre-
pairing a revival of "Salome," M.
Rouche, the director should invite
Miss Garden to sing the name part
and later give Paris a chance of see
ing Alfano's Resurrection" with her
in the role in which she has scored
great success.
