BLICK HAS
PROBLEM

Getting a referee for the three
wrestling bouts to be presented to-
morrow night at the Arcadia Audi
torium, Fourteenth Street and Park
Road, is proving some job for John

Curley of New York, Is staging the
show.

ment.
One may be assured that the
choice he makes from the group Of
men now under consideration will
be satisfactory to all.
The heavies who are to appear
on the card will give any referee
plenty to watch, for all are clever
mat men. Jim Maloney and Re-
nato Gardini, booked for the head
liner, are grapplers with much ex-
perience, as are Alex Garkawienko
and Tommy Draak. who will clutch

It is not enough merely to have
hit the ball properly. for there are
two halves to the stroke, and any
lack of equality is defect.
Another thing, the knuckles Of the

Court Justice James A. Dunno goes
other injunctiont judges one better.
Dunno does not wait till the workers
go on strike, but issues his writs
against peaceful union appeals. His
temporary restraining order in be-
half of the Pak-It-Rite Paper Box com
pany Of Brooklyn forbids the Paper
Box Makers Union from endeayoring
to persuade employees of the plaintiff
to join the defendant union"
There is nO-strike at this big plant,
but the union is distributing circulars
telling Of the advantages Of the A
hour week, Of higher wages and the
protection of union.
George Powers, organizer for the
union, laid the amazing open shop Or
der of the justice before the American
Civil Liberties Union which is having
legal analysis made of it. He pointed
out that the injunction goes further
even than the "yellow dog" injunc-
tons of West Virginia and other
places forbidding union from persuad-
ing men from breaking inividual
contracts of employment. For the
paper box firm has no such contracts
with its employees.

FLINT ELECTION
City Must Build Sewer
for Fisher Body Plant
BY r. BAKER.
Especial TO The Daily Worker)


STINT, Mich, Sept. 15.-In Flint,
Mich, are located several large plants
of the General Motors Corporation.
The biggest of these is the new Fisher
Body plant, well known for its speed
up system. A new sewer was needed
for this plant, which was to cost $780,
600. The General Motors Corporation
decided that the town of Flint should
pay for it. Much to their surprise.
when the question was voted on in
August it was rejected by S12 to 716.
Seek to Change Vote.
General Motors Immediately set its
machinery into motion in order to re.
wise this decision. A new vote was
set for September. The writer pre-.
dicted in The DAILY WORKER that
the second vote for the sewer pro.
gram would carry because the major
ity of the voters are employed by the
General Motors Corporation.
Lay Down Law.
The Flint Daily Journal, controlled
by General Motors, carried front page
articles urging favorable action on
the issue. Special meetings of bust
ness men were called. The law was
laid down to them. In one of the
largest hotels free coffee and sand
wiches were served along with
speeches by hirelings of the General
Motor Corporation. All factories is
sued special shop bulletins dealing
with the sewer question. On voting
day all shops closed one hour earlier
The extra number of street cars neces.
sary to take the workers home was
held back in the car barns, and in
their place feet of brand new Bucks
and Chevrolets appeared displaying
the sign: vote Yes; Car to Polling
Place and Home"
Naturally the workers, who were
standing on the corners waiting for
street cars. boarded these.
Voting System "ElastIc."
The system of voting was very
elastic" In spite of the fact that
only taxpayers have the right to vote
on such a question, democracy on this
occasion took the form of any citizen
residing in Flint for over three months
being allowed to vote at any of the
six polling stations. No registration
was required. Many company hire.
lings voted Eyes" at all six places.
These facts easily explain the rela.
lively immense vote cast. The vote
was 1926 yes, and 1905 no.

1877 of the United Auto, Aircraft and

resolutions signifying their desire for
afiliation with the American Fedora
ton Of Labor and calling on the ma
tional convention of the American

held in Detroit starting October Is to
launch an active organization cam
paign in the automobile industry.
The Detroit union signifies its
willingness 20 enter into negotiations
with the metal trades department of
the American Federation of Labor
with the intention of afiliating itself
with the American Federation of
Labor.
Some of the slogans that the De-
troit union points out should be used
in the organizing campaign which
they urge the American Federation of
Labor to conduct are: Against wage
CUTS" For an increase in wages"
For a general improvement of work
ing conditions" Establish the 8-hour
day and the 44-hour week."
