Cappellini made half-hearted effort

Then he went to the mayor of Scran-

Chicagoans Hear Plea
Recognize Soviet Union

The Chicago Council on Foreign Re-
lations sat in the Palmer House Sun
day and heard with varying degrees
of establishment a plea to renew rela-
lions with the Union of Soviet Repub-
lies. 1t came from Chester T. Rowell,
a former newspaper publisher of
Fresno, Calf, who has just returned
from more than a year of travel and
study in the Soviet Republic. He
urged it because both this country and
Russia would benefit by such re-
sumption of relations. He found too,
he said, bright side to'Communist
life there in the growth of education
among the peasants.

Nevertheless, this agreement is a
blow to the notorious Lands Award
and the so-called Citizens Committee.
1t now becomes a question of i'm
portance, however, whether the Build
ing Trades Council further directs the
struggle to have this agreement not
only embrace the bosses ready to sign
at this moment, but thru their organ
lied power compel all the building
trades contractors to accept closed
shop conditions.
To accomplish this, militant poll.
cies are necessary, as well as the
united effort of all the building trades
unions.
Carpenters Not In.
1t is noteworthy that the agreement
does not include the carpenters, who
are not affiliate4 to the Building
Trades Council on account of their
disagreement with the jurisdictional
ruling on the handling of metal trim
This year the Chicago Carpenters
District Council offered to re-affiliate
with Building Trades Council, but laid
down a string of conditions of juris
dictional character.
The Building Trades Council would
not accept these, yet it is necessary
that some serious efforts be made to
completely eliminate this jurisdiction
al dispute and to have the carpenters
become a regular part of the council
The leaders, whatever their interests
may be, should not be permitted tc
stand in the way. The carpenters, by

its approximate 0,00O,membership is
the largest single unit within the
Building Trades. There can be no
real unity without them.
The one outstanding lesson for the
Building Trades Workers to learn
from the improvements gained in this
agreement is the fact that ever since
1921, with the disunity existing, and
the complete failure of the leader
ship to bring the whole power of the
united forces Of the unions to bear to
establish the closed shop, this i'm
portant step in that direction has be-
come possible only thru the degree of
unity which has been accomplished.

FTHE agreement between the New
l. York Joint Board of the l. L. G..
w. u. and the inside manufacturers
organized in the Industrial Council
which ended the cloakmakers' 20
weeks strike-except for about 10000
workers still on strike against the
arch enemy Of the union, the jobbers
makes it necessary to review the
course of this important struggle, to
point out clearly the strong points and
dts weaknesses, its victories and its
defeats and to draw the proper les
sons therefrom, thus helping to estab-
aish the policies for the struggles
ahead
The union registers partial victory
in the settlement with the Industrial
Council, which was won in the face o.
great difficulties. Many of the fea-
lures of the agreement are definite
gains for the workers. The 4O-hour
week is established by the settlement.
This achievement will take on greater
significance in the near future. Fol-
lowing close after the furriers' 40-hour
victory, it is an indication that the
great body of needle workers under
the left wing leadership will soon have
established a five-day 40-hour week
thruout the entire needle industry.
The agreement also carried with it
substantial wage Increases, the limi-
fation of contractors, non partisan con-
troll Of the labor bureau, recognition Of
the examiners-all Of which are dis
tinct gains.
The Weaknesses.
FTNHE weakness Of the agreement is
4 that under its terms the employ
ers get the right of 10 per cent yearly
reorganization. This was provided for
in the award Of the governors COM
mission, which was accepted by Sig
man and other right wing leaders.
This acceptance made it impossible
sor the union to defeat the employers
ON this important point. But the force
OF the reorganization is weakened by
fhe various notifications and the
checks upon Il, including the right Of
review in case OF discharge, the reor.
eanization to be limited to those shops
guaranteeing the workers the equiva-
lent Of 80 weeks wages (this intro
duces into the cloakmaking industry
abe principal Of time guarantee). The
chops to have reorganization must be
enlarged from 35 to 40 workers by
June, 1928, and the smaller shops 10
receive the right Of reorganization
must have their work done inside the
shop only.
The Conduct Of the strike.
TIT was a failure also not to secure
Il recognition for the designers. And
IL was q decided error to permit Hill
quit to agree to allow Governor Smith
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-11-25

to have any hand whatsoever In Sc
lecting the impartial chairman.
/ During the course Of the strike, the
cloakmakers, under the left wing lead
ership, won a number of important
victories over the enemy and over
vicious practices hitherto existing in
the organization. The union smashed
the injunction issued by Judge Guy
violating II successfully en- masse.
Honor to the thousands who were ar.
rested in the struggle! Likewise, it
victory to defeat Governor Smiths
attempt to force compulsory arbitra-
ton upon the cloakmakers during the
struggle, and the governors commits
sion, facile and effective tool of the
employers, has been dealt a mortal
blow. 1t and similar institutions will
not be foisted as easily again upon
the cloakmakers or other needle work
ers.
The strike was conducted honestly
by the left wing, the grating of right
wing leaders In former strikes being
conspicuous by its absence among the
left wing militants The raising OF
over 100000 to finance the strike
in spite of right wing sabotage, was an
achievement. AS never before the
masses were drawn into. active strike
participation, as Shown by the mass
picketing, the elimination of gangster-
ism, etc. The cloakmakers' strike has
been conducted on higher and better
plane than any in the history of the
international.
Great Difficulties.
TN the strike the union confronted
unprecedented difficulties. It had
to contend with a host Of enemies,
without and within. The long period
of class collaboration by the corrupt
and reactionary leadership had sapped
the strength OF the union and Sc
riously weakened its position. This
discredited right wing leadership
which had Systematically checked
progress and abolished democracy in
the union, and which had ruled by
gangster methods, was still occupying
many strategic positions in the organ
izations, including complete control OF
the international office. 1t could not
and would not, inspire the masses oil
cloalSmakers. who hate its corruption
and reaction, to struggle against tho
bosses. This group Of reactlonary
right wing officials under the leader
ship Of Sigman had seriously weakened
the union by its expulsion and disrup
tive activities, had liquidated the
treasury and placed the union In debt
and had placed all possible obstruc'
lions to proper preparation OF the
strike.
The development OF the jobbing sys-
tenn and the growth OF the out-of
town shops are very vital problems

Will Rogers, one Of the nations

audience to let the distinguished
comedian leave the stage. his act was
very successful.

efforts to make up for the break in
the musical program by extending his
great measure the peoples disap-
pointmcnt in not hearing the full
quartet.
In addition to his usual line Of
comment on the days news from the
world at large, Rogers found ample
opportunity for several Jokes OH mat

interest, including the Townley oil

His roping act. with which he has
entertained the Zicgfed F'ollies
crowds nightly for many years in ad-
dition to his humorous talk, was
greatly enjoyed by his audience here
He is equally as adept at handing
the lariat as at making puns. and the
combination Of the two constitutes u
complete entertainment.
In line with the traffic conference
which Governor A. G.. Sorlic plans
to hold here sometime in the mean
future, Rogers proposed traffic code
was given particular attention. His
three rules for the control of traffic
are:
!. Abolish all right and left hand
