WALL NEWSPAPER APPEARS in PASSAIC

paper, try their hand at making
something also.
Are Newsy Sheets.
What does a textile strikers wall
paper look like? 1t is a piece of wrap
ping paper about three by four feet,
on which are pasted, drawn, written
and painted all sorts of articles, pic
lures, slogans, cartoons, clippings and
what not. The theme in general is
the union and the strike, but there is
nothing to prevent the workers taking
excursions into other fields such as
the British miners strike or the ex-
ploitation of Chinese textile workers,
which the class-conscious worker
knows are his problems also. There
is much color used in the papers.
Drawing and cartoons, made by the
workers themselves, attract the most
attention. The worker who cannot
read, getting interested in a drawing,
will ask his comrade to explain what
is written underneath, whereas a
printed article would leave him cold.
The articles are short, and are writ
ten in Polish, Hungarian, Italian or
English. 1t may be a story of how
the cops broke up a picket line, and
protest against the beating of fell
low-workers. 1t may be a knock at
the company union or an appeal to
strikers to come out on the picket
line.
Striking Cartoons.
The cartoons are the best. There
was one of fat Mr.. Forstmann stand
ing in front of a cook-stove stirring
up company union mess. The work
er. tasting of it, makes a wry face
and says moi" Again the company
union appears in the form of huge
yellow snake, across which is written
in red letters mo"
Another cartoon shows a policeman
holding on strings swarm of cock
reaches labelled "scabs." There was
one which showed a fat boss walking
over a row of collins. Underneath
was written 1.-THE boss walks TO
wealth over the collins Of the work
ers. The union will put stop to
this march Of death. The union gives
us life and happiness"
All the spaces on the paper are filled
up with slogans written or printed in
colored letters. Solidarity forever!"
1--WE will win" 1.-THE union is strong"
Thru all these means the workers ex-
press their class-consciousnes and
pass II along to others.

Thomas Kennedy, international Sec

would lose his job if Lewis is de-
feated, spoke on the policies of John
Brophy, Lewis opponent, declaring,
that they would not solve the prob

Lewis policies, but neglected to name
any of the policies of Brophy.
No mention was made at the meet

forms one of the most important
