Washington Post Assays
Role of Adviser to the
Machinists of America

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-Under the
above title the Washington Post leads
its editorial page with an appeal to
the metal. trades of the American
Federation of Labor to refuse affilia-
ton with the International Federation
Of Metal Workers.
1t argues that American labor
should beware of internationalists be-
cause any such connection would
mean that American money would as
sist radical propaganda abroad and
would lead to the introduction OF so
cialism into American unions. If for
eigners have not the nerve to get
liberty for themselves which America
affords TO her workers, 1t declares,
American workers have no interest in
helping them. Still less, the editorial
asserts, should American workers be
expected to encourage foreign labor
in its "heresies" whereby 1t fails to
cooperate with the employing class
abroad.

Boston c. L. u. Plans
Building of New
Home for Unions

BOSTON, Oct. 12-(FP)- Boston's
Central Labor Union is considering
the erection of its own home.
American Federation of Labor or
ganizer Frank H. Mccarthy moved
for the appointment Of an Investigate
ing committee, which was approved.
Mccarthy argued that the body had
practically agreed before the war to
build Labor Temple and was then
considering several possible sites. The
organizer said that the outlook. for or
ganized labor is better now than it
has been for years and the time
seemed opportune for the Central La
Dor body to build.
John Van Vaerenwyck, president
Massachusetts Federation of Labor,
led a two-hour discussion of work
mems compensation. A joint confer
ence Of representatives from all cen
trail bodies in the state is planned for
Boston to discuss what the unions
shall demand before the special COM
mission appointed by Governor Alvan
Fuller to consider workmen's COM
pensation legislation changes.
President William Green Of the A.
F. of L. and other union heads will
be invited to speak before the COM
mission for Massachusetts, labor.

brought them to the meetings. The
membership must wake up and realize
that they must protest against actions
as are being practiced by Brother Mill
stein who claims to have the interests
Of the organization at heart.
We must build UP our ranks so that
we may 60 forward with our move
ment which shall be for the benefit
of our organization and not for a few
who seek not to elevate our members
but to destroy those that have the
organization at heart.
Come to Fridays Meeting.
The Office urges the membership to
attend our next meeting which will
be held this coming Friday night,
October Is, 1926. At this meeting
Brother Ben Gold, manager of the
New York Joint Board Furriers' I'm
ion, who is a representative of twelve
thousand furriers, and who led the
membership of New York to success
full and victorious victory for the 40

We will also have with us Brother

an assessment on the membership for
the striking cloakmakers of New
York City, also for the aid Of the Bos-
ton and Winnipeg fur workers will be
taken up.
Work for the Union.
Once again appeal to the members

pay any attention to the Furriers'
Social and Civic Club, but to CO.

that you believe is for the benefit of
the organization.
ask and urge the membership to
assist us in carrying out our good
work for the members. l again urge
you to make it your business to attend

lu0uU6IS VI Lie
To All Members of Local as.
During the past year and a half
there has arisen turmoil thru our
ranks which came to a elimination
on September rs, 1926, by the mem
bership electing practically a new
STAFF of officers.
1t was supposed to have been under
stood that all turmoil be ended, but
as 1t looks today our battles have just
begun and it is up to the membership
Of Local As to see that all those who
are endeavoring to break up the union
shall be removed from the organiza-
ton. 1t is not question Of lefts and
rights, but purely question of the
welfare of the membership.
Members Must Wake Up.
Those that endeavored to be elected
as officers and did not succeed in
the same must take their defeat like
men should take defeats.
Several Of those that have lost out
on the election are endeavoring and
will smash the union unless the mem
bership wakes up and shows their sol
idarity to those officers that were le-
gally and honestly elected.
~ A Club to Destroy. Union.
Shortly after the election those that
were defeated formed themselves a
club known as the. Furriers' Social
and Civic Club. Had this been club
to better the conditions of the workers
it would be perfectly legitimate, but
this club was formed purely with the
purpose of wrecking and destroying
what the membership has built up
after years Of patient struggling and
by the sweat of their blood.
The Way of Disruption.
A meeting Of the membership was
called, for October 8, 1926, and every
thing was running along smoothly
until Brother Millstein and by the
aid of the lso-called Social Civic Club
tried to throw in monkey wrenches.
On the night OF. the election the prin-
cipal candidates pledged themselves
for amnesty towards everybody, and
that question arose on the floor, and
We found there was an opposition
against it. 49,,
1t is perfectly right for a member
to oppose questions, but it is not his
privilege to arise and go over with
the determination to slug somebody.
This is what happened at the meeting
last night. Tactics like this will not
strengthen our organization. On the
contrary, it will only destroy our
movement.
Do Not Need Police.
In the history of our organization
there has never been a time that Of
ficers of the law should be present at
the meetings until my predecessor

Whole Shops Join in Or

BY SAUL WHITE.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12-over 500
jewelry workers crowded into the
large Bryant Hall last Thursday, Oct.
z, applauded the speakers that urged
them to come into the organization
and filled applications Immediately
after.
1t was the first big meeting of
jewelry workers held in many years.
The drive conducted by Local No. 1,
International Jewelry Workers I'm
ion, in the last few weeks has met a
favorable response among the work
ers and revealed that the conditions
Of the jewelry workers since the last
strike OF 1920 have become intoler-
able and the men will not stand any
longer for the abuse Of the bosses.
Many large shops have Joined in a
body, others are joining in groups and
if the right wing leadership will rise
to the occasion the drive will result
in the re-establishment of union con-
troll in the jewelry shops, which was
lost in the last strike.
The progressive jewellers who
urged action continually are in the
front line doing organizing work.
The campaign will assume a more
serious aspect now, more mass meet

PENNSY PORTERS

Benefit Association Vot-

NEW YORK, Oct. IL. - An organ.

Pullman Porters' Benefit Association
is in full swing at the Pennsylvania
terminal where primaries are in pro-
gress according to information re-
ceived in the Offices of the Brother
hood of Sleeping Car Porters.
Violate Constitution.
Although the constitution of the
Association provides that only porters
actually in service shall be eligible for
office, the company is making a
desperate effort to nominate a ticket
composed entirely of welfare workers,
instructors, and company" men to
guide the destinies OF the benefit as
.sociation.
Many porters have reported to the
brotherhood that their pay checks
were being withheld until they regis
tered vote in this farcical primary
and that they were being instructed to

Spread Lies.
At the same time the company is
circulating propaganda to the effect
hat the brotherhood is anxious to get
Its hands on the funds of the Bene-
ft Association and destroy It. Moth
ing could be further from the truth.
The brotherhood wants to help the
porters make i've organization out
Of the P. p. B. A. by taking 1t out of
company control and separating it
from the pernicious company union
plan and putting Il in the hands Of the
porters who support it and to whom
1t belongs. A bold attempt like this
one to violate the laws and the spirit
Of the Association ought to.be and will
be opposed by members of the brother
hood and other porters as well.
The primaries, closed on Thursday,
October Z, and after the counting of
the ballots it will be definitely known
whether the scheme Of the Pullman
company has succeeded.

Aimee Semple Mcpherson went to
court today for the beginning of the
third week of her unprecedented pre-
liminary hearing. The evangelist, her
mother, and Mrs. Lorraine Wiseman-
Sielaff Of San Francisco are charged
width conspiracy to produce false
testimony.
Distributing printed cards to her
congregation, which testify to the
signers' unwavering faith in the in
tegrity of the Angelus Temple pastor,
Mrs. Mcpherson said; How many of
you are members of the khan? Take
several hundred cards with you to the
meetings and get signatures"
Charges Frame-Up.
Mention of the khan as potential
source of strength confirmed earlier
indications that the evangelist centers
her defense about a charge of a
religious frame-up." When Deputy
District Attorney Joe Ryan and Capt.
Of Detectives Herman Cline discovered
that Kenneth Ormiston, former radio
man employed at Mrs. McPherson's
Angelus Temple, had spent ten days
in a Carbohydrates cottage with
a woman resembling the evangelist ct
a time when the pastor claimed she
was kidnapped, Mrs. Mcpherson an
swered the charge by declaring Ryan
and Cline we're catholics prosecuting

Again, during the questioning OF
Miss Agnes Callahan, a prosecution
witness who testified that she had

IN WORLD WAR BATTLES

Washington, Dec. 11.-A careful
re-check of American army World
War casualties shows that 50,510

Those actually killed in action to-
tailed 37,56S while 1892 died of
wounds received in action.
The to"al number of battle casu-
altes was 244,173. This includes the
deaths and 1865 non-mortal
wounds which were treated Those
wounded, however, were only 1864
individuals as 10.9S9 soldiers were
treated for more than one wound.
In summary of the causes of
death some popular beliefs were eX-
ploded. The first is that gunshot
wounds caused the maj or proportion
of casualties, 127,22S, or 61.6 per
cent, while gas accounted for 6S,974
or o3.4 per cent. Shell fire casual
ties were 9,4S6, or 4.59 per cent; air
