SANITARY LABELS
NOW CIRCULATE.
IN SCAB SHOPS
Sigman Agitation On
Question All Bluff

The Sanitary Labels Of the Interna-
sonal Garment Workers Union, and
also the fifty-cent registration books
81 The reactionary officialdom of the
International, are being freely cir
eulated in scab shops, it is charged in
/ leaflet issued yesterday by the Shop
ghairmen's Council to all cloak and
lressmakers who have been forced to
register with the International.
1t is pointed out that Sigman raised
the issues of the sanitary label and
unemployment insurance just to divert
attention from the fact that his union
splitting policies are resulting in the
destroying of the most basic union
conditions in the shops.
Now shat the official registration
Of Sigman and his associates has been
ended, all cloak and dressmakers who
were terrorized into registering with
the International for fear of losing
their jobs, are urged to join with their
fellow-workers "to fight against those
who have needlessly thrown our union
nto a ruinous civil war" All work
srs are asked by the Shop Chairmen's
Council to join with the Joint Board
n building a union controlled by the
rank and file.
eve cannot permit the present sit
uation to go on much longer" says
the Council. "The conditions which
we have gained thru our bitter strike
are fast being undermined as a result
IF the present war forced upon us
by Sigman. The bosses are taking
full advantage of the situation; wages
are being cut down, hours prolonged
and piece work, against which we
fought for many years, is beginning
to spread turnout our industry"
Members of the union are asked to
ignore the orders of Sigman and his
supporters, regardless of whether you
were forced to register; to come to
The Joint Board and take out duplicate
books; and not to pay any dues to Sig
man because the money is being used
to split the union and to pay the hired
gangsters who are terrorizing the
membership of our union"
This statement is signed by T..
Brauner, chairman, and A. Kleinman,
secretary of the Shop Chairmen's
Council.

Carnegie Corporation and Work

pose of the attempts of the various
capitalist "philanthropic educational

"The fate of workers education is
hanging in the balance" writes Wolfe.
"If the philanthropists succeed in
dominating the workers education
movement, they will be poisoning it,
consciously or unconsciously, with
master-class viewpoints, and robbing
the working class of its natural lead

Frye said that up to the present

any company in this country. He
said that in order to make the busi-

a mail contract and that ore would
be necessary in this district as soon

weed the postal department. that the
service would be good.
Frye commented on the advantages
of flying. He said that the air pas
senger service will cut two thirds OF
the time necessary by any other
means of travel. He said that within
a very few years everyone will own
a plane and fly it without any more
concern than the public now drives
automobiles. He told that his firm
is agent for the Eagle Rock plane,
which is of the type which George
Faw flew about Douglas carrying

more planes are on their way west
now from the Fokker factories in
New Jersey, one plane expected in
Ell Paso at any moment. The cor
poration president said that he was
willing to operate through this route
for time at cost in order to educate
the public to aviation and give them
chance to become interested.
This man, an experienced flier, is
able to see aviation from the stand

actually there is no sensation at all

vised the clearing of an additional
runway and the enlarging Of the
signal marker which they said was
small.
The party emphasized the great

that the great distance between

it will make IL miles to the gallon

ton of a plane is very slight as
compared with that on an automobile
He said that IL miles to a gallon
