fellows who have helmets should put
them to use" he shouted. Then he
called to the police and asked:
isn't it better for you to stand and
look on than to be clubbing us as you
did the other day."
"Your damn right" replied one cop,
1--WE went to war to fight the
kaiser" continued the soldier, "but
now we are here to fight the kaiser
n our own country. They told us we
went to fight for democracy, and, by
god, we are going to take them at
their word"
Company Union Silent.
There is a company union headed
by the bosses that has roped in some
of the workers in the Forstmann and
Huffman mill and this labor union"
did not even offer resolution against
the brutal attack upon the strikers the
other day. The strikers and members
of the United Front Committee have
noticed this and realize that fake
union run by the bosses in worse than
no union at all. In the United Front
Committee only the workers have any
say. The bosses never come near.
1--WE are one people" declared Weis-
bord to the strike meeting land not
| Botany or Garfield or Gera workers
alone. If we do not get together, they
will cut your wages and keep you IN
slavery as they are doing in the other
mills. You may be sure that II the
Botany loses your bosses will cut you
to the bone also"
Jail Better Than Workshop.
Felix Panariso who had been SEN
fenced to 30 days in Jail was released
on bonds on appeal, and was given an
ovation when he entered the hall.
''The jail is fine compared with the.
hellish mills in which we have to
work." he said. "In jail we eat three
meals day and we can sleep as long
as we want to- In the mill we have
to work day and night and have to get
up before daylight to go to our Jobs,
and after all we get such small wages
that we have to worry all the time and
cannot afford to get as good food as
they have for us in jail. We must
stick together and get our rights so
that we can get decent wages and
better hours and make life worth
while. It's a shame to have work
places that are worse than jails."
Il am ready to go on the picket line
again in spite of the beating got
Tuesday" said Gustav Deak. 1--WE
must have picket line of 5000 IL ne
cessary and show the bosses that
there is nothing for them to do but
to grant us our demands"
Police Club Pluto Reporter.
One reporter of capitalist paper
Of New York got dubbed badly BY
mistake on the day the police dubbed
the strikers and this got up his ire
to the highest pitch. It was such an
insult to make a mistake like that and
he has had the police chief, mayor and
even the bosses busy apologizing for
such blunder. @
The police threatened to smash the
camera of a fellow who later proved
to be a reported, but whom the police
thought was a striker. The class line
is drawn as keenly as is the line be-
tween Passaic and Clifton.

This strike means work." said
Weisbord to the meeting at the Rus

you are striking, on the picket line.
