Union to Mobilize for
the Fight

The present agreement between the
New York joint board Of the lnterna-
tlonaI Fur Workers Union and the
Associated Fur Manufacturers will ex-
pire Jan. 81.
Several conferences have already
been held for the purpose of negotia-
tag a new agreement. These confer
ences have resulted in a deadlock due
to the stubborn unwillingness of the
fur manufacturers to even consider
the just demands Of the fur workers
Progress Comes Thru Power.
Since 1912 the agreements between
the joint board and the Associated Fur
Manufacturers have been renewed sew

must, however, be stated, that never

as for that matter, in the history of
any union did the workers secure any
improvement of their conditions be-
cause the manufacturers were willing
to concede the justice of their de-

the union and the iron determination
of the workers which compelled the
manufacturers to grant improvements
to the workers.
Long Strike In 1920,
In 1920 when the fur workers de-
manded reduction of the hours OF
work in order to reduce the danger
GUS physical effects of the occupation
and to provide work for every furrier,
the manufacturers were as stubborn
as they are at the present time. They
then forced the workers into a strug-

ers proved their courage and deter
mination. The manufacturers incur
red enormous losses, but it now APP

LOCALS ENDORSE
DELEGATION TO.
SOVIET RUSSIA.
N. Y. Committee Has
Wide Support
Especial to The Daily Worker

NEW YORK, Jan. 26-At the last
conference of the New York commit
tee for sending an American trade
union delegation to Soviet Russia
formerly known as the trade union
committee for organizing the Purcell
meetings) which was held on Sunday,
Jan. "a, at Beethoven Hall, number
of local unions reported that they had
adopted the resolution for the sending
Of delegation to the Soviet Union.
The resolution has been adopted by
the following organizations according
to latest reports: Fur Nailers' Local
10, International Ladies' Garment
Workers Local 8, %, So and &C, Shoe
workers Locals SO and 54. Public
Service Workers Union, Architectural
Iron and Bronze Workers Union, Shoe
Workers Protective Union District
Council, Butchers Local ia and
Bakers Local 3.
Here's the Resolution.
The resolution adopted is as fol-
lows:
Whereas, the experiences gained by
the Russian working class during
these eight years of struggle are of
the most profound interest and i'm
portance to the workers of all coun-
tries. and
Whereas, the labor movements OF
nearly every country in the world
have sent delegations to the Union Of
Socialist Soviet Republics to study the
conditions as they are and to make
full reports to the workers of their
respective countries, and
Whereas, the American labor move
ment till this day has not only failed
to send delegation to Soviet Russia
but persists in taking it's information
from the enemies OF the labor move
ment regarding the great social chan
ges now taking place in Soviet Rus
STA, therefore, be it
Resolved. that we go on record for
the sending of trade union deiega-
ton to the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics, composed OF responsible re-
personalities of the organized labor
movement, who shall bring back to
the workers of this country accurate
and authentic information on the true
state of affairs, the life and condition
of the working class in the Soviet
Union.

THEY WERE DOING

Biz Fish Were Eating Little Fish
 Just Like Today

Seven or eight million years ago or whereabouts when the present state Of Kansas was an inland sea, a giant fish turned canntbal and swallowed what might easily have been one Of his own progeny-head first. fius. tail and all In all prob ability, however, hs paid the price for his glu-ony for he died i'm madiatoly after. Today scientists oE tha National Museum under the di- rection of the Smithsonian Institu- ton are preparing his fossilized skeleton, enclosing that Of his un- Iieested last meal, for exhibition at the sesquicantennial Exposition at Philadelphia this summer.
 Portheus is the name or the giant ash and os the fish it swal owed and they belong to a group which has long since been extinct The tarpon more nearly resembles this group than any other living species of fish. but even it is not considered to be very closely related.
 Ths present specimen measured about 12 feet from tip 70 tail, and rarpons dn not exceed half that length. The smaller fish which the giant swallowed whole. reached nearly six feet, T. Is this fact which suggests that the giant might have died as the result Of his gluttony.
 The immeiiacv Of death after eating is indicated. Of course. by the almost undigested state of the skeIe- ton Of the smaller fish inside. The giant sank al once 10 the bottom. where through long centuries his bones Were covered with the remains Of minute son organisms forming chalk. Other layers of shale-form- ing mud followed the chalk and on top of these. sand was deposited un- til the skeleton was buried under 1000 feet Of rock forming ma- terial. In course of geological pro- cesses the sea bottom was raised, the sea disappeared, erosion carried away most Of the superinposed layers. and the fish skeleton was finally uncovered by modern scientist.
 . George F. Sternberg dug ID the fossil fish in the Niobrara Cretace- ous ChaIl, of western Kansas. The period when these chalks were formed corresponded with the earl fer part Of epochs which closed the so-called RepIloan ear, when the giant dinosaurs reigned supreme on land.
