WOMAN'S PARTY
AIDS CAPITAL
AGAINST LABOR
Don't Fight for Men and
Opposes Women

NEW YORK, Jan. 20. - FP)-
Women miners, bell hops, bootblacks,
seamen Cor seawomen?)-any kind Of
work without restriction should be
every woman's privilege Mrs. G.
N. Smith, N. Y state chairmen of the
Women's Party, argued in debate
with Mabel Leslie, secretary N. Y.
Women's Trade Union League, on
legislation for women workers.
The Women's Party opposes the s.
hour day, minimum wage, no-night-
work, and all other legislation which
aims to protect women workers from
the special abuses which employers
impose on them.
Mrs. Smith gave the usual state
ment that the Women's Party does
not oppose labor legislation as a
whole but that it wants labor legis-
lation to include men as we'll as
women. Miss Leslie showed how
women are subject to special discrim-
ination in industry, how difficult they
are to organize in unions, and argued
that legislation was necessary to give
them any improved conditions.
The Women's Party representative
would not accept the idea that what
ever is gained by women workers thru
legislation is a gain to all workers, re-
ducing the tendency of employers to
put lower paid women workers into
mems jobs in which they have equal
skill.
Mrs. Smith has not yet announced
her intention of becoming a miner.

CRIBBEN, SEXTON
POLISHERS WIN
UNION DEMANDS
Bosses Must Deal with
Workers Committee

The strike Of the metal poIIshers at
the crlbben, Sexton & Co. plant,
Sacramento Blvd. and West Chicago
Ave. has ended In victory for the
strikers. After a strike that lasted
over five months, the crIbben, Sexton
stove manufacturers have been forced
to grant the demands Of the union
men.
The polishers will now have a 49,
hour week, closed union shop, shop
committees and will receive 81 an
hour where they formerly received
but 65 to So cents an hour. Piece
work rates will be so arranged that
the polishers will be able to make
$1.10 instead of the rs to IS cents an
hour they received before the strike
Time and a half is to be paid for
overtime.
The Cribben, Sexton plant at the
time the men went on strike refused
to have anything to do with the union
polishers. All grievances in the shop
will be adjusted by the committee of
the workers in the shop and foreman.
If the dispute is not settled, it will
then go to the union business agent
and the plant head.
The agreement, which will be form
ally signed in May, is in force at pres
emit and will remain in force. The open
shop superintendent which this COM
pany acquired from the Edison Elec-
trio Appliance company, which has
strike on it's hands now, has been told
that his employment will end with the
last day of January.

TOM Mann VISITS
HARRY POLLITT
IN JAIL Cell
Strike Planned to Force
Release

The imprisonment of twelve leadeTv
of the British Communist Party and
the Young Communist League by the
conservative government has been
roundly condemned by the entire
labor movement of Great Britain. The
demand for their release is growing in
volume every day, and each evening
there is a mass meeting held outside
Wandsworth prison where the Com
munist leaders are held.
We reprint the following interview
with Harry Pollitt by Tom Mann from
the Sunday Worker, the organ OF the
left wing of the British labor move
ment. Comrade Pollitt is the secret
airy of the British National Minority
movement, the revolutionary left wing
of the British trade union movement
organized on the basis of the program
of the Red International OF Labor
Unions. Under the able leadership Of
Comrade Pollitt this movement has
grown into a mass movement en-
bracing in its ranks over six hundred
thousand trade unionists. Comrade
Pollitt is member Of the Boiler
makers Union, and we'll known for
years as revolutionary fighter.

Model Realized That
Work Had Drawbacks

The late John S. Sargent, the artist,
used to tell a story about an old man
who once called at his studio, saying
he had just been discharged from a
hospital, and asked for little food or
money.
Mr. Sargent gave the old fellow
small sum, and then decided that he
would make a good model, and sent
d maid out to call him back.
"Hl, come back" said the maid, as
she overlook him. THE master wants
to paint you"
The old fellow hesitated
"Will he pay me wellT' he asked
"Oh, yes" said the maid. He'll
probably pay you a pound" (So).
The old fellow took or his shabby
old hat and scratched his head. Still
he hesitated
ITS an easy way to earn money"
said the maid.
"Yes, know that" said the old man
with a troubled smile. Il was only
wonderin' how I'd get the paint of

NEW BRIDGE AT ST. GEORGES
Lift Bridge Put in Operation On
Monday of Last Week

The first of five new bridges being
placed over the Chesapeake-Delaware
canal-a new steel lift bridge at St.
Georges which has been undergoing
construction since September, 1924,
was opened to public traffic on Mon
day of last week The bridge is IT'S
feet long over the lift span, and it
lifts to a height of 140 feet above the
water level, five feet higher than the
Brooklyn Bridge.
Seth Gibbons and Dal Wolfe, who
were formerly lock tenders at the
canal at Delaware City and Chesa-
peake City, have been engaged to op-
crate the bridge and from the center
tower will operate the mechanism
which raises the span to let vessels
pass under it. The span weighs about
1000 tons.
The new bridge at Chesapeake City
will be completed late in April or
early in May, it is expected. An
other span being constructed at Sum-
INIT will be ready for use about June
l, and another at Delaware City some
time in July. These bridges are be-
ing constructed by the Government.
A fifth bridge to span the canal near
KirkwOOd is being built by the Penn
sylvania Railroad. The five bridges
when completed will represent a cost
of about $1,500.000.
