Paterson Strikers
Warned of Absurdity
Of Boss Propaganda

PATERSON, N. j., Jan. 25.-A
hundred of the girl strikers from Gar
finkel and Ritter's here attended a
meeting at which speakers from the
International Ladies Garment Work
ers and the United Textile Workers
spoke. The morale of the strikers is
excellent, though they are unfamiliar
with strike tactics and glad of ex-
perienced union aid. Arrangements
are being made to bring them all into
the union.
Company suckers are mixing among
the strikers and trying to brighten
them into submission by telling of
Garfinkeps enormous wealth, and his
determination to move his mills where
there is no union. Speakers are
warning the girls of the absurdity Of
these stories, as it would cost mill
lions of dollars to abandon the leases
in Paterson, and break connections
there.

MurderOus Assault
Especial to the Daily Worker.)


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Jan. 25.-
Under the leadership Of John Brophy,
president Of District No. of the
United Mine Workers Of America and
candidate for international president
on the Save The Union" ticket in
the miners union elections last month,
the progressives entered the cOnven-
ton today in strength.
A bitter fight is momentarily ex-
pected over attempts Of the creden-
tials committee, part of the official
machine, to keep out the left wing
delegates and seat large number of
administration supporters who repre-
sent locals created on paper, over
night, in order to maintain a ma
jority for Lewis.
Hapgood Won't Quit.
Powers Hapgood, refusing to be in
undated by the attempt to kill him
couple of days ago, is actively as
sisting Brophy in rallying the large
numbers of uniformed delegates who
have come in without instructions
from ,their unions. These delegates
are the key to control Of the con-
vention.
In the past, the progressives,
though courageous and sometimes
numerically strong, were still a min
GRITTY. The machine is always a min
ority, and represents principally pay
roll followers of Lewis.
Hitherto, in each concrete issue, as
it arose on the floor of the convention
the machine, by its superior organ
ization and planned iatimidation Of
undecided delegates, has had its way

exactly the things that the Lewis adj
ministration, with its policy of con

permit if it is to continue in power
There will be a bitter contest.

CURRENT EVENTS

WHEN reading the capitalist press
w for news Of happenings in China
and Mexico be careful to read be-
tween the lines. Capitalist papers
are never trustworthy where labor or
other victims of imperialism are con-
cerned but in times of comparative
peace, capitalist editors are allowed
the privilege of getting an occasional
thrill out of their work by printing
the truth occasionally. But when a
crisis has been reached as is now the
case in Mexico and China, all the
capitalist papers without hardly an
exception begin to lie their worst and
capitalist correspondents compete for
the boss favors by racking their
brains for the most plausible false
hood.
THE propaganda mills in the Orient
L appear to be grinding out the
kind of stuff that Great Britain
wants to feed the public with. Still
the machinery is not running smooth
ly yet One New York newspaper
had a front page story that Japan
had agreed to cooperate with
England against China. Another
newspaper had a three line item
buried away in an obscure corner Of
the paper to the effect that the Jap
anese government had officially de-
clared that it turned down England's
request for Cooperation" Unless
one is in close touch with the inter-
national situation it is hard to pick
the truth from the lies.

Lewis and Fishwick
Fear to Go 1t Alone

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. 25,-
The further amalgamation of the two
strongest machines in the United
Mine Workers of America was made
evident shortly after the Thirtieth
international Convention of the union
went into session today, when Inter-
national President Lewis appointed
President Harry Fishwick Of district
II to be chairman of the stnIe COM
mittee.
Fishwick inherits the Frank Far
rington machine in Illinois, and con-
trolls district which includes some
thing near a third Of the member
ship of the entire union. Harrington,
before he acknowledged himself last
summer an employee of the Peabody
Coal Co., used to fight Lewis when
he felt secure, and ally himself with
Lewis when either was menaced by
progressive forces. Fishwick has
never had the independence of action
that Harrington boosted, because he
had an election agreement with board

SIGMAN THUGS
RIOT TO help
BOSS IN STRIKE
Six Men Arrested When
Gang Attacks Pickets

Picketing of struck ladies garment
shops near Thirty-sixth street and
Eighth Avenue resulted in new gang
ster attacks on Tuesday, in which one
picket was seriously beaten, many
hurt, and six arrested.
More gangsters appeared on Tues
day than had been apparent on Mon
day, the day that group picketing
was begun at the shops which have
been called on strike by the Joint
Board because employers discharged
workers who refused to register with
the International. The determination
Of the workers to support the pickets
of the struck shops has so Infatuated
the international that the underworld
has been secured to procure extra
thugs to crush them. The thugs came
armed with guns, billiard cues,
knives, etc.
Gangsters Released.
Six workers were arrested, one of
whom, Albert Julio, of 1913 Forty
fourth street, Brooklyn, was given a
thirty-day sentence. Two gangsters
who were arrested were Immediately
released. Those under arrest, charged
with disorderly conduct are Joseph
Miller, Michael Morris, David Vein
traub, Anthony Bulo, and Nicholas
Perdik.
"Some Kind OF A Crowd"
A meeting called by the Interna-
tional in Cooper Union for Wednes-
day evening for the ratification of an
agreement with the dress manufac-
turers, was characterized by Mr.. Hy-
man as can attempt to get together
some kind of crowd in order to COM
plete the sell out of the workers..
"The dressmakers do not recognize
that the international has a right to
make any agreement and they will
not attend the meeting, he declared.
"Proof of this statement is very easy
to get. Everyone knows that the
majority of the workers in the dress
trade are women. Observers at Mr..
Sigman's meeting on Wednesday will

ment Workers Union, held for the
purpose Of hearing report by its

of renewing the agreement which ex-

mand the question Of the fortE-hour

The debate hinged upon the Rob

Having Lost Union
Sig.man Now Fights
For Official Title

Morris Sigman has resorted to a
new plan to have his "joint board"
recognized as the bona fide organiza-
tion in spite of the fact that the mass
of the needle workers are continuing
to support the left wing joint board
headed by Louis Hyman. He has APP
pealed to the impartial" chairman,
Raymond Y. Ingersol, who is sup
posed to settle all differences between
the union and the industrial council,
on minor question, his purpose be-
ing to put Ingersol on record in favor
of the right wing as the official ex-
preston Of the workers.
This is one of several methods that
the Sigman group are now adopting
in their last attempts to become the
official union organization. What
Ingersol will decide is not known at
present. He has invited Louis Lyman
to be present when he acts on the
question.
The industrial council has issued
statement to the press that since the
differences in the union has resulted
in two groups claiming to be the I'M
ion, it has dealt with both the right
and left wings, according to which
group brought the particular ques-
ton before it, and in the dispute
which Sigman is now using as
grounds for his appeal to the impair
tial chairman, it has already taken
up that question with the left wing
joint board.
The DAILY WORKER has been
informed that members of Abraham
Beckerman's slugging gang were in
the vicinity Of Cooper and Schloss-
berg's shop GAG West seth Street
where strike is on, when Gabriel
Rabinbach was beaten last Monday
morning with a piece of lead pipe.
Vice-president Dubinsky and or
ganizers Aurestsky and Dutti were in
charge Of the gangsters. Their slug
gers are now going from shop to shop
in taxis seeking to intimidate the
striking workers.

No notices of this meeting had been
sent to members of shops known to
be in sympathy with the progressives
in the union, but in spite Of this there
was such strong left wing sentiment
among the $50 members present that
the meeting had to be called off with

Citizens In No Danger.
While Coolidge talks about the
need for the protection of American
nationals in China it is an undeniable
fact that well-behaved citizens of any
foreign country are. in no danger in
the part of China Under the control
Of the Cantonese and it is against the
Cantonese that Coolidge is making
threats.
Hardboiled though the Presidents
policy is he must give some consid-
Grafton to the storm Of opinion that
is blowing against intervention in
China and Mexico. But he bends to
this storm only out of regard for his
political future. The week sister
who covered in the White House
when the Teapot Dome explosion
shook the nation now snarles like a
hyena at anybody who would with
hold the bayonets of the United
States from use against the slaves of
American imperialism.
Evading Resolution.
The President was said to be quite
willing to act independently Of other
nations in announcing a new diplo-
matte policy, but considers the pro
lection of American investments more
urgent and paramount at this time
The situation calls for concerted ac-
ton by combined naval forces, he be-
lieves, as the forces of no one coun-
try are considered capable of meeting
the emergency.
At the same time the house foreign
affairs committee adopted the Porter
resolution and reported it favorably
to the house, urging that the United
States pursue an independent course
in China. This resolution has to dc
with the American policy on unequal
treaties and eXtraterritoriality.
This is construed by some to fore.
shadow recognition of the Cantonese
government by the United States.
In any event, International new:
service learned today that DIR. Alfred
SEE, Chinese minister to the United
States for many years, will close tbs

piled both here and in China that the

would be done to have them released

would be fully cared for in their alb
sence.
Several speakers told instances of
the terrorist tactics being used by the
International in their effort to force
workers to register, and to prevent
picketing of shops where workers
have been discharged. The fact that

what a complete failure it has been.

The meeting closed with the unan-
imous passage Of resolution callir B
upon the cloak and dressmakers to
ignore all orders of the international
and refuse to pay them dues or taxes
instead to pay their dues and taxes
to the Joint Board and so support

and to form at once a defense com
nnittee to meet the onslaughts of the

was also voted that the shop chair
mems council should proceed to hold
elections in the Joint Board Locals
in view of the fact that the Inter
national had refused proposals for a
general election under the supervis-
ion of an impartial body.
The shop chairmen's council asks
all cloak and dressmakers who are
taken off their jobs for failing to
register with the International to re-
port to them each night at 16 West
