HOFFMAN DRIVE
IS BRANDED AS
FAKE BY HYMAN
Dues Collecting More,
Says. N. Y. Manager

The organization drive in cloak and
dress shops announced by julius
HICKMAN of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union is branded
as fake by Louis Hyman, manager
of the Cloak and Dressmakers' Joint
Board
"This talk of an organization drive
is bunk" says Lyman. Hickman
and the right wing cannot do any or
ganizing for they have not the men
or the means. Actually the. have
no intention or organizing, but plan
simply dues-collecting drive
They are anxious to force the UNI
registered workers to pay them dues
and taxes; and if they cannot do it
any other way they will try to take
them off their jobs. On the list of
shops in which the rights have al
ready called strikes are well-known
union shops whose only offense is
that they still employ workers who
will not register with the Interna-
tional.
"Sigman is now bringing into New
York the notorious conditions that
have for long time existed in out
of-town shops under his control.
Workers have complained that the
union made agreements with shops
out-of-town and permitted them to
continue piece work and the payment
of wages far below the union scale
They simply handed a non-union shop
a union label.
To Collect Dues.
Gust as such non-union unioniza-
ton was merely a dues-collection af-
fair, SO is the present alleged cam
paign of organization. The right
wing has no intention of trying to
drive out the non-union shop; they
could not do it even if they tried.
Incidentally, they will have hard
time collecting any dues either, for
even the workers whom they terror
lied into registering do not recognize
them or support them"

JULY RAISES BIC.
QUESTION FOR ALL
FUR WORKERS NOW
Let's Will Fight For
Agreement Terms

The importance of July increases
for fur workers is now coming to the
fore and the scab workers are begin
ming to realize that this demand,
which was one of those for which the
Joint Board workers went out on
strike, will not be granted unless the
strike is Won
According to the agreement signed
with the union at the end of the last
strike the fur workers were to obtain
raise in wages on July 1. In most
cases due to right wing pressure this
did not materialize.
In view of the failure of the right
wing and A F. of L. leaders to help
the workers in any way in this prob
lem many right wing fur shops are
now openly admitting the Joint Board
representatives to deal with the
bosses. Daily there is increasing evil
dence that the Joint Board was right
in raising this issue, and there is re-
peated proof that the scab union is
going to do nothing about it.
No Raises.
The Jewish Daily Forward has been
talking loudly about July increases,
but the workers are asking Where
are they?" They have not seen them;
and in many instances where the
workers have come to the A. F. of L.
union asking for help in getting in
creases, they find the next day that
the spokesman of the shop is dis
charged.
This happened at the shop of A.
Splegel where 10 workers were dis
charged on the day after they had
gone to the right wing asking for the
July increase. There are rumors that
the bosses are now doing what they
did in 1920 before the strike, dis
charging workers and then re-employ-
ing them at lower wages-and longer
hours if they can induce them
Want Protection.
During the past few days, large
groups of discharged registered work
ers have gathered in the office of the
scab union demanding to know why
they had been discharged, and also
demanding the unions protection.
The answer of the A. F. of L. off
Gals in several instances was to call
on the police to disburse these work
ers; and several of them were beaten
by the police and by the strong arm
squad which fills the right wing head
quarters.
No wonder there is a growing move
ment among the hundreds of regis
tered workers, who now realize that
they were mislead by the right wing
officials, to rejoin the Joint Board and
ask for pardon.
TOmorrow's Meeting
The subject of July raises is to be
one of the important matters taken
up tomorrow night at the membership
meetings of the four Joint Board
locals. Local l will meet in Royal
Hall; Local in Stuyvesant Casino;
Local 10 in Stuyvesant Casino; and
Local Is in Astoria Hall. The meet
ings will begin at p. m.
In addition to the question of July
raises, the workers will again take up
the suggestion of reduction of the
10 per cent strike assessment and will
hear a report on the recent peace ne
gotiations.

Two Anti-knOcl Fuels.
The two types of anti knock fuels
which now enjoy the widest use are
those based upon so-called cracked
gasoline and those containing terra
ethyl lead as knock preventive. In
the cracking of heavy petroleum oil
to yield more gasoline there is
formed lii the product a considerable
amount of what are called unsatu-
rated compounds. These unsaturated
compounds appear to operate to re-
duce the tendency of the fuel TO
cause knock in use. Similarly the
addition of coal tar benzol 70 form
benZol blends with ordinary gasoline
| increases the anti-knock value of the
fuel TO an extent depending upon the
amount of benZol added
MANY fuels of these two kinds
are on the market, but the con-
sumers find that there is little uni
formity in the materials marketed
even under a single brand. The diff
Ificulty encountered by the manufac-
turer in producing a satisfactory.
uniform antiknock fuel by cracking
his gasoline has prevented she strik-
ing of balance between anti-knock
value and the well known tendency
of cracked fuel to form undesirable
carbon deposits. Motorists have
used such fuels with satisfactory re-
Isults on some occasions, but have
found it difficult to secure the neces-
sary uniformity for continuous good
results.

THREE sANNIck BOYS NOW IN TERRITORY

Among the Alaskan sea-faring men who few times each year make Sew ard, and who is becoming quite well known here is Herman Sanwick, chief engineer of the B. of E. schooner Boxer. The chief has been with the Boxer now for number of years and has been making so many calls, with Captain Whitlam, at the Bureau of Ed ucation stations and schools from Queen Charlotte Sound to Point Bar row, that he can almost converse as freely in Eskimo and the Aleut lan- guage as he can in English.
 Chief Sanwick now has two brothers in Alaska, one of them being foreman of a cannery in Bristol Bay and the other one, the younger brother, is breaking in on deck on the cannery vessel North Star, Libby boat op- erating on Cook Inlet.
 The chief is an ardent photograph CT, for. wherever he goes his camera accompanies him. His pictures, of which he has hundreds, are very un- usual in that scenes from out of the regular highways of traffic are shot.
 He has presented the Gateway with a choice selection of these out of the ordinary photographs, which it is pro- posed to publish at some future date in special edition.
