back from his annual trip to Eur

Hei1lStitCherS' Union
to Vote ON General
Strike; 4 Arrested

Tomorrow the fuckers Pleaters'
and Hemstitchers' Local Al, will act
on the question of calling general
strike against all manufacturers in
the pleating industry at asmeeting at
Webster Hall.
In a circular the officers of the
local declare as follows: Monday,
Dec. 5, the members of our union in
structed the executive board that in
the event the bosses of the industry
did not come to an agreement with
our union and take back the workers
locked out by them the executive
board would be authorized to take all
necessary steps to mobilize for gen
eral strike.
Strike Is Necessary.
"The time has now come when
general strike has become an absolute
necessity. The members of Local Al
must answer the injunction by leav-
ing their shops till the bosses are
compelled to recognize the union and
grant union conditions in the indus
try"
Four more strikers were arrested
while picketing the shop of Landau

Intend to Continue War
On Mine Union
Especial to The Daily Worker

WASHINGTON. Dec. 13.-With a
full representation of the United
Mine Workers and only handful of
operators present, Secretary of La
Dor Davis coal parley got under way
here today.
The refusal of operators in Central
and Western Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Northern West Virginia to participate
threw wet blanket on the proceed
ings and little hope was held out that
any real peace would ee obtained.
No List of Operators.
John L. Lewis, president, Phillip
Murray, vice president, respectively,
of the United Mine Workers, led the
union forces. Davis refused TO give
out list of the operators present.
After three hour session Secre-
tary of Labor Davis coal parley re-
cessed until this afternoon, the min
ers' Representatives are scheduled to
meet alone at 2 p. M, while the hand
full of present operators will meet an
hour later. Whether there will be an
other joint session was not revealed.
No News Given Out.
The morning session was behind
closed doors and no information was
forthcoming either from Davis or the
two groups involved.
Big Bosses Ignore Meet.
The refusal of the big associations
Of coal operators in Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia to take part
in the conference is understood here
as a declaration of intention to pro-
ceed with the union-smashing cam
paign they are carrying out in their
respective territories.
The replies of the coal operators
are all couched in the same tone and
all ignore the United Mine Workers
as the representative of the mine
workers.
Called as a result of an appeal to
President Coolidge by John L. Lewis
of the United Mine Workers, the con-
ference has served no other purpose
than TO show the determination of the
coal operators to continue their war
on the union and to conceal to some
extent the fact that in this drive they
have the full support of the govern
ment and the courts.
