Recently a fresh wave of excite

There have been many such ripples
since the strike began. The latest one
started with the appearance of num-

Hughes, agent for the Botany Worsted

notices were those behind in their rent

Word went out that the whole street
was to be cleared on the strikers
side, whether rent was paid or not. A
family from out of town moved into
one Of the houses across from the
foremen's homes, and went to- work
in the Botany mills. other families
were to be imported from out of town
by the management of the mills, and
the street was to be swept clean OF
strikers and strike sympathizers to
make room for the "scabs." This was

A DJOINING the Botany Worsted
L \ Mills in Passaic is block known
as Mattimore street. On one side of
the street is a row of neat little brick
cottages with fenced-in lawns, screen
ed-in porches and flower gardens. On
the other side of the street stretches
an irregular line of ugly, rundown,
drab-colored houses and tenements.
Broken steps lead to the sidewalk.
The roofs sag and the porches, where
there are any, look on the verge of
collapsing.
Stark Hostility.
These two rows of houses stand and
stare hostilely at each other across
the street which divides them. In
the evening groups of people gather
on the steps and porches in front of
the houses on both sides of Matti-
more street They too stare across
the street contemptuously. Occasion
ally few jeering words fly thru the
air.
THIS block of houses and tenements
on both sides of the street is own
ed by the Botany Worsted Mills.
Huge and formidable, the mills can
be seen standing just in back of the
neat brick cottages of the foremen.
To the right of the strikers side of
the street and in back of the mills
runs canal. To the left and in front
of the mills is Dayton avenue.
Just One Block.
Mattimore street is only one block
long, yet in this one block are con-
centrated many of the important ele-
ments of the textile strike now in its
thirty-eighth week. These same ele-
ments can be found in almost any av-
erage strike ever held in this coun-
try, for that matter.

sents dramatic picture fit for the
stage in its compression. On one side

ments of the striking workers. On the
other the spruce, red-brick cottages OF

Thus led on, Rachel said that she
would be interested to understand
the ideas of Comrade Watkins.
whenever a Socialist wanted to be
very polite to Bolshevik, she call
ed him by the old term, which had
applied before the family row broke
out.) How could mass uprising
succeed in America, with the en-
ploying class in possession Of all
the arms and means Of communica-
ton? They had poison gas now,
and would wipe out thousands of
the rebel workers at time. The
one possible outcome would be re-
action-as In Italy, where the work
ers had seized the factories, and
then had had to give them up be-
cause they couldn't run them.
Comrade Watkins replied that
Italy had no coal, but was Deepen
dent on Britain and America, which
thus had the power to strangle the
Italian workers. AS a matter of
fact the Fascist reaction in Italy
had been made by American bank
ers-Mussolini and his rufians had
not dared to move a finger till they
had made certain of American cred
its. We had played the same role
there as in Hungary and Bavaria;
all over the world American gold
was buttressing reaction. Paul had
seen it with his own eyes in ST.
IBERIA, and he said, with his quiet
decisiveness, that nobody could I'M
derstand what it meant unless he
had been there. Paul didn't blame
Comrade Menzies for feeling as she
did; that was natural for one who
had been brought up under peace
conditions; but Paul had been to
war; he had seen the class struggle
in action.
Eyes, Comrade Watkins" said RAJ
chel, "but if you try and fail, things
will be so much worse"
"If we never try" said Paul, 1--WE
can never succeed; and even If we
fail, the class consciousness of the
workers will be sharpened, and the
end will be nearer than if we do
nothing. We have to keep the rev
dictionary goal before the mass
es. and not let them be lured into
compromise. That is my criticism
of the Socialist movement; it fails
to realize the intellectual and moral
forces locked up in the working
class that can be called out by the
right appeal"
"Ah," said Rachel, "but that is the
question-what is the right appeal?
l want to appeal to peace rather
than to violence. That seems to
me more moral"
Paul answered, that to make
peace appeals to tiger might seem
moral to some, but to him it seemed
futile. The determining fact in the
world was what the capitalist class
had done, during the past nine years.
They had destroyed thirty million
human lives, and three hundred bill
lions of wealth, everything whole
generation of labor had created. SO
Paul did not enter into discussions
of morality with them; they were a
set of murderous maniacs, and the
Job was to sweep them out of pow
er. Any means that would succeed
were moral means, because nothing
could be so immoral as capitalism.
When Bunny went out with RAJ
chel, she said that Paul was an ex-
traordinary man, and certainly a

dangerous one to the capitalist
class. He was a case of shell-shock
from the war, and those who had
made the war would have to deal
with him. Then Bunny asked about
Ruth, and Rachel said she was a
nice girl, but little colorless, didn't
comrade think? Bunny tried to ex-
plain that Ruth was deep, her feel
ings were intense, but she seldom
expressed them. Rachel said Ruth
ought to think for herself, because
she would have a lot of suffering il
she followed Paul thru his Bolshe-
vik career. Bunny suggested that
Rachel might help to educate her.
but Rachel smiled and said that
Comrade Ross was too naive; surely
Paul would not like to have So
cialist come in and steal his sisters
sympathy from him. In spite of all
Bunny could do, his women friends
would not be friends.
Then later on Bunny saw Paul,
and got Paul's reaction to Rachel.
A nice girl, well-meaning and intelli-
gent, but she wouldn't keep her pro-
letarian attitude very long. The So
cial revolution in America was not
going to be made by young lady col
lege graduates doing charity work
for the capitalist class. What she
was doing among the "Ypsels" was
mostly wasted effort, according to
Paul, because these Socialist organ
cations spent their efforts fighting
Communism. The capitalists ought
to be glad to hire her to do such
work.
But somehow it wasn't that way,
Bunny found; the capitalists were
narrow minded, and lacking in vi
sion. A few days later Bunny learn
ed that Rachel was facing a serious
dilemma. She had taken her four
years course at the university with
the idea of making career as a So
cial worker; but now a woman
friend, upon whose advice she was
acting, had warned her that she was
throwing away her chances by her
activity with these "Ypsels." It was
hard enough for Jewish girl, and
one from the working classes, to
have a professional career, without
taking on the added handicap of So
cialism. Rachel should at least wait
till she had got position, and got
herself established.
So there were more troubles.
What was Rachel going to do? The
answer was that she was not going
to desert her beloved young Social
lists. 1t was all very well to say
wait, but that was the way all COM
promising began; once you started,
you never knew where to stop. No,
Rachel would take her chances of
the "Ypsels" being raided by the po-
lice, or placarded in the newspapers
as a conspiracy to undermining the
morals of youth. If it turned out
that her friend was right, and the
bourgeoisie wouldn't have her as a
dispenser of their charities, she
would find some sort of job in the
labor movement. And Bunny went
off to keep an engagement to din
ner party with Wee Tracy, having
a sober face and a troubled con-
science, neither of which she was
clever enough to hide.

pany But it comes to the same thing
here with these people"
All up and down the street, notices
have been served on the strikers, or
ering them to move in three days.
None of them have gone yet, and they
assert they don't intend to, without
putting up a fight first. After eight
months and more of successful strike.
they are not so easily cowed
TINE strikers who live on the street
L say that there are only about Is
"scabs" scattered up and down the
street, among the several hundred res
idents on the strikers side. The fore
mems side, of course, they consider
entirely "scab." A few of these tif-
teen have moved into the neighbor
hood recently. Some of the others
have dribbled back to the mills grad
ually. The rest never went out on
strike at all.
The Reason.
This strike has been on since Janu-
airy, 1926. Why is it that the Botany
Mills have waited nearly nine months
before trying any drastic means to
realize at last that the strikers intend
to stick it out to the end. The Botany
mills management is not anxious to
drive these strikers living across the
street out of the mill-owned houses.
They are skilled workers and needed
in the mills.
So they were allowed to stay on
month after month, on the continual
expectation that each month would
see them back. But now the ninth
month is well started and there is no
sign of weakening yet. And so as part
of renewed campaign of violence,
comes the eviction notices Of Matti-
more street, Passaic.
