SEAMAN JUST OFF ORGANIZED AUSTRALIAN LINE
CONTRASTS POOR CONDITIONS ON U. S. VESSELS

so minutes and less than an hour,
one hour at overtime rates must be
paid, and so on. For the firemen and
coal passers the dumping Of ashes is
overtime, for the sailors the clearing
of decks, etc, is overtime; also, where
seamen assist m working cargo a
differential rate is paid, which means
the seamen's wages are made equiva-
lent to that of the longshoremen; the
donkeyman or fireman for keeping
steam, and the deckhands for working
winches, etc, are paid differential
rates.
Time OFF.
Again, seamen are entitled to
weekly time off. A seamen must
have four clear hours off from duty
in his home port, or be paid overtime
rates for same. Home port means the
port where the seaman signs Articles.
This leave time can be allowed by
mutual consent to accumulate and be
taken off as whole days, a day in
port being from Z A. M. to p. NJ.
When a ship arrives in port he
watches must be broken, unless the
ship leaves the same day. If watches
are not broken overtime rates must
be paid for all watches worked be-
tween P. M. and z A. M. Again, the
seaman is entitled to seven days
leave of absence on full pay for each
six months continuous employment.
Supplies From Bosses.
Also, mattresses, blankets, eating
utensils, soap and towels, separate
bath and mess rooms must be pro-
vided by the shipowners. Another
point is that the seamen do not have
TO run around the ships or companies
offices looking for jobs, wearing out
shoe leather or paying fares. The
seamen gather together at the Ship
ping Office where a waiting room is
provided by the government, between
the hours of to II in the forenoon
and 2 to in the afternoon, and
where there are vacancies the en-
gineer or officer must pick his men
at the waiting room between the
above hours, or go without. The sea
men of Australia will not take a
ship to sea short-handed. The Cap
tain can read the Riot Act until he is

Wages SIaShed in
Italy; Firms Fail
As Lire Goes Up

ROME, May 1O.--Italy is going
thru a period of severe economic de-
preston.
Workers are suffering wage slashes,
business failures are rapidly increas-
ing, and prices, despite the increased
market value of the Ira, have not
declined.
Economists here attribute business
depression to Mussolini's attempt to
cover himself with glory by raising
the market value of the lire. Mus
solini has borrowed enormous sums
of money from foreign bankers in
an effort to stabilize the lire, and the
increased market value Of money has
increased the cost Of production for
Italian manufacturers. There has
been corresponding drop in foreign
orders.
While business failures in 1913 and
1926 averaged twenty-five per bust
ness day, failures for the first three
months of 1927 have averaged thirty
five and have often run as high as
seventy-five per day.

The food was an abomination and
there was even a scarcity. To pro-
test was to protest alone which, OF
course, is futile. Out OF the whole
crew l found only three men in a
union. Verify, the ship owners have
it their own way. For such an I'M
portant section of the working class
as the seamen not to be organized is
tragedy.

LENIN ON THE
IMPORTANCE OF
COOPERATION

with us, so it seems to me, in
sufficient attention is paid to CO.
operation. 1t is doubtful whether all
understand that since the October re-
volution, and independently of the new
economic policy Tor alternately thanks
thereto) cooperation has acquired a
most exceptional Importance. In
the new economic policy we made a
concession TO the peasant as also to
the trader, with regard to the prin-
ciple Of private trade, and hence the
gigantic Importance of cooperation
(contrariwise to what some people
think Essentially speaking, the CO.
operating Of the Russian population,
widely and deeply and to an adequate
extent in presence of the new eco
nomic policy, is all we require.
Out of cooperation and cooperation
alone, which we formerly treated as
a trading affair, and which we are en-
titled to treat similarly now, under
the new economic regime--is not this
all that is necessary for building up
a complete socialist society? 1t is not
the building of socialistic society,
as yet, but it is quite requisite and
adequate for the building thereof.
Here is the very circumstance unap-
preciated by many Of our practical
workers. They look negligently on
cooperation, without understanding
the exceptional Importance Of cooper
alton has, firstly from the standpoint
Of principle (the ownership of the
means Of production in the hands of
the State) and secondly, in view of
the transition to new order by a
possibly simpler, easier and more ac-
cessible way for the peasant. '-Lenin

Australia. He cannot leave the
waiting shed to sign on without his
book; the members see to that. The
seamen's union holds it's business
on the shipowners' time. On the last
Tuesday of each month, the seamen
leave their ships to attend the Stop
Work Meeting at the various Trades
Halls in the different ports between
the hours of 8 to II noon.
Here they discuss any grievances
they have and formulate tactics to
combat them; also, Of course, to
create new precedents, further i'm
provements, etc. The meeting being
held on the shipoYners' time, all the
seamen in Port assemble together
and the open forum being the order
of the meeting, an unanimous decision
is easily and quickly arrived at; the
men then act in unison. Hence, their
success.
While they may not have an El
Dorado in Australia, they are at least
on the right track. The Stop Work
Meetings are centers of education;
also, decisions made at meetings are
enforced by the members. No official
can defy resolutions for long, ex-
pulsion stares them in the face.

A WORD FOR YOUR
MOST SERIOUS
CONSID GRAFTON

Comrades:
For many years we have been busy
preaching cooperation to our COM
rades. For many years we have been
trying to tell you that cooperation is
important for the workingclass; that
it is one Of the trinity Of weapons the
workers must use in their fight for
/ liberation. But our work so far has
been much in vain. Our voice has
been much ignored. Large numbers Of
comrades have not understood the CO.
/ operative movement as of any i'm
portance.
Comradesl The cooperative move
ment is your movement. Workers
should not separate themselves into
three contradictory movements: po-
ltical, unionistic and cooperative,
each pulling IN opposite directions.
They belong together Arising from
the same cause, they are related in
4 time circumstance and purpose. They
all sprang out Of the social anarchy
D
created by the industrial revolution.
All Of them aim to delivering the
workingclassos from the bonoage Of
capitalism. All of them should work
together consciously for the common
purpose.
You must give active support to the
cooperative movement. This does not
mean platonic affection. 1t means
that you do your daily shopping at
your cooperative store. You must re-
member the cooperative organizations
all the time, not only in the time of
need as heretofore.
An ideal radical worker is he who
is a member Of union, the workers
political party and consumers CO.
operative organization.
