talned by the Industrial Council Of
Manufacturers against the striking
clothing workers as an attempt to
compel the workers to submit to COM
puIsory arbitration, charaeterizina
compulsory arbitration as compulsory

Smith Behind Injunction
Gitlow declared that Governor
Smith is behind this injunction. Git
low recalled in the statement that the
governor declared that if the negotia-
tfons between the manufacturers. and
the cloakmakers failed "he expected
that the cloakmakers would submit to
arbitration" Following the negotia-
tions, the manufacturers lost no time
in at once calling upon the governor
for action in line with this threat.
The One Way to Fight
Benjamin Gitlow further declared
that there is only one thing for the
workers to do in case of injunctions,
and that is to continue their picketing
and ignore the use of this weapon
which has been condemned by the en-
tire labor movement as use of the
court as a strikebreaking agency.

the Cantonese are aiming.
The walled city of Wuchang, on the

The desertions of Wu Pei-fu's
troops continues to such a. degree that
it is doubtful If he can recover any of
the ground he has lost, altho troops
are leaving Peking to reinforce him.
But if these also desert at the moment
they engage the Cantonese, as others
have done. even his present ally,
Chang Tso-lin, may lose interest in
bothering to save WI from his fate.

Chang Tso-lin also has suffered
grave losses by desertions, and there
is clear possibility that the Kuomin-
chun commanded by Feng may march
south, take Peking and continue until
a iuncture is formed with the Can
tonese marching northward.
The result Of this inner unity Of ma
