NINETY. DAILY WORKERS
SOLD / PLASTERERS AT
IMPORTANT UNION MEET

The DAILY WORKER city agent
reports that at the last meeting Of
the plasterers' union, when the men
voted for a five-day week and a
wage raise against the advice Of
their business agent and their IN
ternational president, who came to
town for the purpose, ninety copies
Of an edition of the paper carrying
an advance story on the meeting
were sold in front of the hall.
A story in the DAILY WORKER
that was sold there told the plaster
ers that their international presi-
dent was trying to get the union
men to accept the agreement offered
by the bosses. Whether or not the
story had any affect upon the &C
ton taken in the meeting the DAILY
WORKER Is too modest to say, but
this much is certain, the paper made
ninety new contacts that it hopes to
keep.

Mine Shutdown Against
Jacksonville Agreement

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 26 - A.
Augustus, president of the Cambridge
Golfers Co. of this city, has offered
the $500 men who work when the
mines are running to open his mines
near Cambridge, Ohio, provided the
men accept wage reduction. Inside
day laborers he offers $3.50 a day,
compared with $3.50, the Jacksonville
scale. Cutters and leaders rates are
to remain down near the 1917 scale.
He offers to retain the check-off and
some other parts Of the Jacksonville
agreement. In case of rejection, he
declares that the mines will remain
shut down.
The Eastern Ohio Coal Operators
Association of Cleveland has also been
considering the abrogation Of the
Jacksonville agreement but no an
nouncement as to its policy is yet
forthcoming. The j. A. Paisley inter-
ests of Cleveland, who operate mines
in the Panhandle" section Of West
Virginia recently tried to force a wage
reduction on the men. They refused
to accept and the mines were shut
down.

Wage Reduction
Especial to The Daily workera

OLSO, Norway, April PA lockout
of 10000 workers, mainly in the min
ing, building and printing industries,
will begin tomorrow. Negotiations be-
tween the trade unions, the employers
and government arbitrators have end
ed in the fiat refusal of the unions to
accept the II per cent wage-cut de-
manded by the employers.
Pass Losses to Workers.
The employers give as their reason
for the decrease the drop in the value
of the crown in foreign exchange.
They say their exports sell abroad
now for only 225 crowns where form
erly they sold at $50 crowns. The
deficit they wish to pass on to the
workers.
Communists Active.
The Norwegian workers are rebel
lious at this drastic demand. The
left wing elements in the unions are
leading the fight against not accept
ing any cuts. Trade union officials
were willing to accept 1S per cent
cut they told the employers but it was
not at all certain that the union mem
bers would accept this. In any case
the employers demand for II per
cent reduction has united all labor
forces against them. The Communist
Party is particularly active and is
calling for a general strike against the
reduction of the living standard
which is already low.
Struck in 1924.
Only two years ago thee workers of
Norway struck against similar reduc-
tions. In the long fight they conduct
ed at that time they were aided by
the Swedish and Danish unions.
They expect similar help this year.
Their union treasures were depleted
at the time but have been rehabili-
tated meanwhile and the workers are
prepared for a stiff fight.

Letters from seamen who have

ton. Their appeal to all workers,
whether seafaring or in industry is
so genuine that we take pleasure in
printing every one of them. The first

on board the S. S. Trelawney, which
stopped at the third port of Russia
on the Black Sea. The first letter
published today is as follows:
Dear Comrades; We regret to say
that our stay in this port is coming to
an end so soon. We have not had
the chance Of seeing very much of the

opinion, indeed.
During our stay ut Nicolaeff, al.

way in which Russia has regained her
footing, and the leaders should be we'll
rewarded for what they have saved
her from. After comparing the Rus
sian seamen with the British and see
ing the advantages he has over us,
every British seaman will be glad
when he is under the same conditions.
What is British seaman's life to-
day? Nothing but pure slavery! But
yet 1t is called England the free coun-

We hope that you will accept our
most sincere thanks for livening our

hope to soon see the Seamen's Inter

MILLSTEIN AIDS
S0RKIN'S FIGHT
ON new WORKERS
Joins Attack on N. Y.
Furriers' Joint Board
BY a Worker correspondent


The reactionary machine headed by
Mlllstein which is In control of the
Chicago Fur Workers Union became
surprisingly and unusually generous
at the last executive board meeting
of the union. Millstein introduced a
motion to send $1,000 to the Interna-
tlonaI Union, presumably to be used
in aid of the New York strike. While
the Ieft-wing members Of the board
have every reason to be suspicious
Of MilIstein and his aids, they never
theless concurred in the motion, think
ing the money was intended for the
New York strikers.
Schachtman Phones.
But recent happenings have caused
doubt in the minds of the progressive
members of the union. The call for
the money came, it was learned, over
the long distance telephone from New
York with President Schachtman on
the other end of the wire. During the
telephone conversation Schachtman
gave it as his opinion that the only
way to treat the left-wingers was to
stamp them out. Grind the left

PRODUCTIVITY OF
RAIL WORKERS is
BOOSTED 11.S PCT.
Ry LELAND oLps.

Federated Press staff Correspondent
Steady increases in the amount of
transportation service rendered by
the average railroad worker are
shown in a U. S. department of labor
analysis of railroad statistics from
1922 to 1924. Extension Of the study
to include later figures indicates that
1925 saw an even greater gain in pro-
ductivity.
More Work Per Man.
In 1926 1,769,O99 railroad employees
working 4,45S,7O2,SOS hours handled
456, 265, 100000 ton-miles of freight and
35,963, S62,0 900 passenger miles. In
1922 1,645,244 employees working A.
2,4O4,S 1908 hours handled 375,952, 000-
600 ton-miles lof freight and S5,513,-
$4,000 passenger miles. Thus, while
the railroads paid for only so more
hours of work, the employees handled
21h% more ton-miles of freight and
about 10 more passenger miles.
11.396 Increase.
Using the accepted method Of treat
ing passenger-fniles as equal to ton
miles we find an increase from 1922
to 1925 of 1E3so in the amount of
traffic handled per man-hour of work.
The railroads. in 1925 were getting
1870 more service in return for each
hours work for which they paid
wages. That this increase has tbeen
steady is shown by the fact that the
traffic handled per man-hour of work
in 1926 was 1880 ahead of 1928 and
5.296 ahead of 1924.

General Motors Closes
Canadian Plant as Law
Requires Tariff Cut
Especial to The Daily worksrl


TORONTO, Canada, April 26 - The
General Motors company plant at
Oshawa, Ontario, closed down yester-
day as a result of the Canadian tariff
reduction on autos. 5000 employees are
out Of work until such time as "the
company is able to arrive at an in
telligent conclusion as to what future
course may be considered advisable"
according to the posted announcement
Of the concern.
The Canadian auto industry will, in
general, according to T. A. Russell,
president of the Canadian Automotive
Industries Association, continue their
operations temporarily. The state
ment declares that many of the plants
will have to begin transferring i'm
portant parts of their operations from
Canada and increase their imports of
motor cars and materials from the
United States.
Tariff Charges.
The tariff changes, in effect yester-
day, reduce the tax on imported autos
of a value at retail not exceeding
81, 200 by Is per cent and reduces the
import on autos valued over that sum
by 271s per cent.

Then Came Carnegie Hall.
1t is also significant that directly
after this money was sent, Schacht-
man, Sorkin and other international
officers of the union called the dis
creditable Carnegie, Hall meeting in
an attempt to take the leadership of
the New York strike out Of the hands
Of the progressive New York Joint
Board. che question is arising in the
minds Of Chicago furriers: WAS the
money we sent used to help the strik-
ers, or was it used by the interna-
tional officers on behalf of their con-
spiracy to take the leadership of the
strike from the New York Joint Board
and then make a quick compromise
settlement of the striker"
MilIstein Nervous.
The New York Joint Board has been
victorious. The international officers
have been discredited. But what be-
came of the $1,000? Since the defeat
of the maneuver of Sorkin and
Schachtman against the New York
Joint Board and the re-affirmation of
the confidence of the strikers in their
present leadership Millstein's attitude
in Chicago has also changed some
what. He is little more cautious
now.
Expulsion Policy.
But he has embarked upon policy
of ruling the Chicago furriers' union
by suppressing all progressive voices
within it. AS a starter, J. Sonnen-
schein has been thrown out of the
executive committee on a framed-up
charge and Grossman and Chambers;
also left-wingers, have been fined and
suspended.

Sweeping Injunction
Issued Against Union
by Cleveland, O., Judge


CLEVELAND. Ohio, April 90 Tenn
porary court injunction has been is
sued against the workers belonging to
the International Ladies Garment
Workers Union, who are on strike
at the Lovinger Dress Co. The court
declared that the strikers can put up
only two pickets and only one striker
can picket in front of either entrance
to the building on 25th and Superior.
The banner which the strikers have
carried must be changed. The word
strike" must be eliminated. Not sat
isfied with this decision, the court de-
cided that the picket cannot speak to
the strikebreakers either when they
leave work or when at home. This is
a sweeping temporary injunction, and
the union intends to fight it. With
such a precedent, the court will be
able practically to stop the strike.

that the union be the recognized body

employers, will hold a meeting to de-
eide on further action.
PIebiscite.
Altho for time, the leaders of the
union intimated that they might re-
sort to a strike, they seem to have lost
heart. Two years ago, the courts de-
cided that there could be no union
closed shop-on a public utility. This
broke the back of the strike two years
ago, and the workers still remember
it. The plan now Is to take a referen.
dunn among the workers generally
and if a sufficient number of sigma
lures is produced-10,000 signatures
are equired-then the grant will have
to be submitted to public referen-
dunn.

open-shoppers Fight.

PROFESSIONALLY, the railway COM
pany, the chamber of commerce and
the open-shoppers will do everything
possible to defeat the referendum.
What the result will be is not to be
foreseen. The workers will join sol
idly in the demand of the Garments
Union for recognition. 1t is not inn
possible, however, that the open-shop-
pers will find some technical method
of evading the issue and thus defeat
the referendum. For recognition of
the Garments Union means the fight
Of all unions for recognition. The
open-shoppers will do everything to
beat this attempt. The workers will
then be compelled to use their organ
lied strength to compel the employers
to recognize their organizations. The
test will soon come.
