miners TAG DAYS
TODAY, TOMORROW
Volunteers Needed to
Aid Collections

Hundreds of thousands cf New
York workers are expected to come
to the aid Of the striking miners
of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Illinois
in their heroic struggle, during the
Miners Relief Tag Days to be con-
Quoted thruout New York City today
and tomorrow.
The National Miners Relief Com
mittee, under whose direction the tag
day drive will be conducted, has ar
ranged for stations in every part of
the city. The committee is making
an appeal for all workers organiza-
tions to act as volunteers. Organiza-
tions should enlist their full member
ship as collectors and turn their
headquarters into temporary stations
for relief during the two days of this
drive.
The committee urges workers in
the shops to take up shop collections
today, the first day of the drive,
which comedies with pay day in many
of the shop. Shop committees for
miners relief should also be organ
lied on a permanent basis, and col
lections taken periodically for miners
relief.
Supplies for the tag day drive are
ready and may be called for at the
office of the committee, 799 Broad
way, Room 236. "A good deal of the
responsibility for relief funds rests
on the New York workers." the COM
mittee points out in a statement is
sued last night. eff the miners
strike is lost, they will suffer the
same open-shop attacks and wage
smashing drive. The workers here
are helping themselves and the whole
labor movement by furnishing relief
to the striking miners" the state
ment concludes.

ARRESTS FAIL TO
HALT PICKETS
Workers international
Relief Grows

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, May II.
Instead of terrorizing the increas-
ing number of strikers picketing un-
der the leadership of the Textile Mill
Committees, by arresting the most
active pickets, the police here have
only succeeded waking the bitterness
of the strikers. This resulted in a
larger turnout of strikers before the
mill gates early yesterday than at
any time since the Mill Committees
began to organize picket lines.
Particularly large was the crowd
of strikers patrolling the gates of the
Pemaquid Mill, where Mrs. Angelina
Tsoupreas and Mrs. Christina
Simones, two of the most active
women strikers, were arrested late
Thursday afternoon. After arraign-
ment in local court they were freed
on a combined bail of $110O for a
hearing Monday. The bail was furn-
ished by the Textile Mill Committees.
Relief Emphasized.
The Workers International Relief,
the organization handling the relief
land of the work for the mill commit
tees, and the t. M. C. strike COM
mittee are now concentrating their
main efforts to improve further their
rapidly developing relief collecting
and distributing machinery.
While numerous teams of talented
workers, experts in many forms OF
entertainment, musical, dramatic and
otherwise, are being organized for
tours thruout New England textile
centers, the Workers International
Relief organizers are busily engaged

that Abe Cahan, big boss of the re-
dictionary Jewish Forward, would
bring about a cessation of the bitter
fight between the two reactionary

into an open war for control of the
shell of a once powerful union.
While the reactionaries are openly
