Boston Socialist Is
Praised by Wealthy
For UniOn-SpIitting

BOSTON,, Mass, Nov 2.-Joseph
Bearack, socialist candidate for the
city council received enthusiastic de-
tense as an anti Communist today by
the Good Government League, an or
ganization of wealthy men dabbling
in city politics, when he was at
tackled as a "Red" by his opponents
in open meeting of the council. The
assault on Bearack was led by the
mayor and Israel Ruby, incumbent
for the district Bearack seeks to
represent.
The defense of the Good Govern
ment League was that Bearack was
very active in attacks upon the left
wing in the needle trades and the
heart of their statement is that they:
understand that he (Bearack) is a
Socialist and not Communist. Secre-
tary of Labor Davis, in The Traveller
of June % last is reported as per-
sonally congratulating Mr. Bearack
for his work in breaking up Com
munism in the needle trade.

Building Trades Workers Oppose
Old Party Political TriCkery

There is move on foot on the part
of the rank and file to demand that
committees be appointed from the va
rious building trades unions to draw
up, in the name of the building trades
workers, a demand that the city au-
thorities order the employment of
union labor for subway construction,
and also to bring pressure to bear
upon the delegates to the Central
Trades to force them to raise the
issue in the Council.
More and more the rank and file
are advocating reputation of the old
parties, and the policy of "rewarding
friends and Furnishing enemies" and
favoring an independent labor party.
The unemployment situation is fore
ing the masses to consider the con-
nection between politics and their
jobs.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-11-03

in obtaining employment for union
labor.
The two old parties are being criti-
cized severally by the masses of
workers in the building trades, who
declare that politicians of every
shade have made of subway construc-
ton a big political issue, and yet not
single word appears on either the
republican or democratic ticket about
this work being done by union labor.
Many Workers Unemployed.
Now that the unprecedented boom
of building construction has passed
its peak, and is on the down grade,
thousands upon thousands of building
trades workers are unemployed, while
non-union labor is employed in sub
way construction. While walking the
streets with union cards in their
pockets the members of organized la
Dor are not enthusiastic about the
pleas Of labor politicians who talk
about workers being able to ride to
their jobs on the subways that are
with scab labor. They
have no jobs to ride to, so the ques-
ton of transportation is solved for
them.
The leaders of the building trades
unions who support the old party
policies are being hard put to explain
these things to their own rank and
file. The officials of the Central
Trades and of the local unions of the
building trades as well as the Build
ing Trades Council all evade the issue
of the employment of union labor on
the subway construction, because it
might embarrass the friends of la
Dor" whom they reward" with their
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-11-03

Workers in the building trades of
Greater New York are incensed at
the conduct of the so-caIled labor
leaders who use their offices to play
old party politics. They charge that
prominent officials support Tam
many proposals for subway construc-
ton but do not take steps to see to
it that organized labor is employed
in the subway construction.
In half dozen building trades
union headquarters very bitter COM
ment was heard on the part of the
rank and file regarding the state
ment of J. P. Ryan, chairman of a
special committee of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor, in support of
Amendment No. 2 that is before the
voters at next Tuesdays election.
This amendment provides for an APP
preparation of S3OO000,000 for addi-
tional subways. At a special meeting
of the Central Trades and Labor
Council, Ryan, advocating support of
the measure, said "The new rapid
transit will get workers to and from
their employment safely and speed
lily" He did not mention the fact
that thus far not a single body of
organized building trades workers are
engaged in subway construction.
Playing Politics With Labor.
None of the officials of the unions
or delegates to the Council raised the
question of the expenditure of hun
dreds of millions of dollars on sub
ways, constructed without the en-
ployment of union labor 1t seems
that they were more interested in
repeating the old cIap-trap about get
ting workers to and from work than

FASHION

The fashion experts are out with the information that brown and
gray are to be the coming coors for fail. Consequently, while it IS
probable that we will see more Of these colors than any others during
the coming month, no girl need worry because she must wear some other
color.
The manufacturers have probably had their looms making webs
although there is a pleasing fiction that fashion is something born OF
woman's caprice, it is in reality a hard and fact factor in commercial
life.
France has always recognized this. Ever since the enactment of
the sumptuary laws, the laws of fashion have not been the moods OF
women. but necessities of commerce.
New colors, new textiles, must be made from time to time, SO
that the wheels of business be kept moving.
Those who know this and have known it for hundreds of years
depend upon the one great psychological law-"There is nothing change
less in this world but change and they try to find the moment when
the jaded votaTy of fashion becomes tired of style that is and Is look
ing for a style that will be new. Then having decided that the time
is right, they change-aittle.
Fashion is never radical 1t does not push its way past all
obstacles; rather it creeps slowly around them.
Do you older women remember how long it took for women to
become accustomed to the low, small hats now universally worn?
They began to creep in before the war. and even today Queen Mary
and many other women still perch connections of flowers and ribbons
on the top of their heads.
But to get back to brown and gray for the color of your new
winter costume.
Brown is a warmer color than gray, especially the red browns
which are already seen in the shops.
1t looks better on the browneyed girl than one with eyes OF ue
Brown is seldom becoming to blackeyed girls. 1t does not COM
bie well with other colors; so unless you can have many accessories
I'll Of a variation of tint, brown is an expensive color.
A woman must be pretty sure she is pretty if she wears gray.
The color is good OF redraired girls whose brilliant color needs SUD
DUNG.
Il can, however, be combined with black. yellow, blue, pink. n in
and compilations.
Memo.-Be sure and study not only your inclination but your
personality before buying your winters wardrobe.
