the workers that the Joint Board will
very soon make clear why it has in
structed certain workers to register
in the scab union.
"The Joint Board will soon teach a
lesson to those manufacturers who

lives of the fur workers. They will
be made to realize that they are to
keep hands off the Furriers' Union.

In the discussions at last nights

in the fur market yesterday, every
registered fur worker in the associa-

No one is to register who is work

Macdonald, American
Trip Ruined, Quietly
Sinks From Hospital

PHILADELPHIA, May 12. -
Ramsay Macdonald, former prem
Ter Of England, was discharged
from the Jefferson Hospital here
this afternoon and quietly caught
the one o'clock train for New
York. Macdonald had almost fully
recovered from a recent throat all
ment and planned to visit rich
friends in New York before sail
ing for home on the Berengeria,
hospital attendants said.
Macdonald was brought to
America by the Jewish Daily For

in the New York unions, but en-
tered the hospital and remained
quietly there shortly after news
reached America that his own
party, the Independent Labor Par
ty of England had practically re-
pudiated him.

Under the Craftsmanship Of Abra-

fight "along spiritual and moral

second confab at Beethoven Hall,
East Fifth St., on Wednesday eve

About 125 people were present, in
GLIDING visitors. The sponsors Of the
conference refused to allow any of
their visitors to leave while the ses-

visitors wanted to leave they were
told to keep their seats by some OF
Beckerman "boys" who paraded up
and down the aisles.
Sam de Witt and Morris Feinstone
were the clowns of the evening. Dc
Witt generously offered copy Of his

RIGHTS BARRING
FURRIERS FROM
INTERNATIONAL
Fear Workers Influence
On Convention

Apparently moved by the fear that
the fur workers will regain control
of their union if too many of them
are permitted to register, the reac-
tionary leaders of the International
Fur Workers Union and the A. r. of
l.. Reorganization Committee are re-
fusing to issue books of the "scab In
ternationap to those workers who
have been instructed by the Joint
Board to register and return to their
shops.
Possibly the right wing officials
are afraid these workers may have
a voice in choosing delegates for the
convention which they have an
nounced for June Is at Washington,
D. c. This is the convention which
should have been held early in May.
Whatever the reason, the right
wing leaders are deliberately dis
eliminating against the workers from
locked-out shops. President William
Green of the A. f. of L. said recently
that this 'scab' union is the real
union, and every fur worker is eligi-
bic for membership. Yet workers
who have been members of the union
since its organization are being re-
fused the books of the International.
At first they were given letters in
stead of books. Now the right wing
is afraid to register them at all.
Afraid of Workers.
When the workers who did receive
letters present them to an employer,
they are refused jobs, or they are Of
fered wages so low that they are GER
tain not to accept. The international
has deliberately told the employers
not to engage these workers carrying
letters. They are apt to create trou-
bic. the right wing declares.
The reactionary officials are faced
with a dilemma-more workers than
they ever dreamed of registering, yet
they fear to enter their names. They
feel certain there is something wrong
somewhere.
In the meantime mobilization
work is going forward at Joint Board
headquarters and the fur workers are
urged to "hold themselves in readi-
ness" to demonstrate their organized
power when the hour comes.
Rally To Joint Board.
Four crowded membership meet
ings of locals affiliated with the New
York Joint Board of the Furriers'
Union last night pledged their ener-
getic cooperation in the work Of col
lecting the 100000 "Union Defense
Fund" and of undertaking larger
preparations for a more intensive
phase of the fight against the reac-
tionary forces of the International
and the A. r. of L.

Building Workers
Discuss Crisis in
Plumbers Lockout

Wide interest was manifested by
building trades workers yesterday in
the mass meeting called for 8 p. m.
tonight at Ace Hall, 1872 Claremont
Ave. Williamsburg, by the American
Association of Plumbers Helpers.
The major issues before the build
ing trades of New York City will be
faced by speakers at Ace Hall, ac-
cording to President c. L. Miller of
the helpers. With the Brooklyn
plumbers and helpers on strike since
April / for the five-day week and
wage increases, and the plumbers and
helpers in the rest Of New York
locked out or on strike as result,
the building trades here face crucial
tests, he declared.
The helpers are on strike to bring
the present 81 scale somewhere near
err the level for other helpers, rang
/ ing from SO for electricians helpers
to $11 for boilermakers' helpers. The
helpers hope to affiliate with the
United Association of Plumbers and
Gas Filters.
PrOgressives Give Analysis.
The Progressive Building Trades
/ Workers of Greater New York are
also maintaining a lively interest in
the present crisis. With contracts
showing a steady decline, they declare
that the bosses have picked this year
for a general assault on all the
building crafts, beginning with the
plumbers. The Building Trades En-
ployers' Associations act in taking
charge of the lockout from the boss
plumbers constitutes threat of di-
rect war on all the crafts, the pro-
gressives say.
The Employers Association, ac-
cording to the progressives, COM
prises 26 associations representing
SOC of the larger contractors and
building employers. In addition 149
associate members represent the
building material dealers, bankers,
lawyers, architects and trade pub
fishers.
Against this united force, the build
ing crafts are pitting their individual
strength, even the loose alliance of
the Building Trades Council being in
effective because not used.
ASK Conference Now.
The progressives have formulated
four demands:
l. An immediate conference of all
building trade unions to organize the
defense against the attack Of the en-
ployers' association.
.. Organization of plumbers help
ers and other unorganized building
trades workers.
s. One Building Trades Council
comprising all building trades unions
4. Uniform agreements for all
building trades to expire at the same
time.

Oil Magnates Petition
For Bigger and Better

WASHINGTON, May lin an
effort to boost the price Of oil, oil
barons, led by Walter c. Teagle, Pres

The statement issued by the oil

Billy Evans, baseball's newest

and vigor few weeks ago, wound
up with a hectic search for mater

have to start the coming season
