1t is understood that in addition to
the Progressive Workers group which
is heading the movement, a section
of the Anchor and the Square Deal
clubs have combined together against
Breach.
The sentiment of the membership
was particularly bitter after the
hasty adjournment of the Thursday
meeting over the deliberate stalllAg
on the issue of unemployment which
Broach at a previous meeting had
reported would come up for real con
sideration Thursday. Between forty
and fifty per cent Of the members
are now out of work either full or
part time. It in agreed that real
program could be worked out to solve
this problem if Breach were not
bound by his plan to work with the
big bosses in the industry whose
policy is the speed up and elimina-
tion Of workers.
Suggest Remedies.
The division of work and the in
PRODUCTION of the five day week with
five and one-half days pay is one of
the partial remedies. Another is the
demand upon the city and national
government to take steps TO help
unemployed workers through unem-
ployment insurance and other means
as is done in every civilized country
in the world
Bound by his connections with the
corrupt local labor officialdom and
the ammany Hall democratic ma
chine with which Breach is known
recently to have made terms, he is
unwilling, it is said, to do anything
against 4he policies of the two OLD
parties which are betraying the
workers. On. this account, it is stated
Breach is bitterly opposed to labor
party.
On the subject of unemployment,
a motion was made by delegate to
he Central Trades and Labor Coun-
oil to appoint three delegates to the
unemployment conference called for
March II at Washington Irving High
School by the Central Trades.
Opposes Amendment.
An amendment that the three dele
gates be the business manager of
Local 3, one of the delegates 10 the
Central Trades and one OF the dele
gates to the Building Trades Coun-
ell was opposed by the Breach ma
chine by various subterfuges but the
real reason is known to be the fact
that Breach, joining with the Tam
many labor skates IN this deceptive
unemployment conference, is unwill
ing to send members of his ruling
machine in order to avoid the critic
ism that he did not take any stand
for real action at the fake conference.
A communication was received at
the meeting from Moe Smith adj
dressed to the officers and members
OF Local 3 requesting that the mem
bersnip intercede on his behalf. Smith
showed that ne had been excluded
from the meeting for reasons which
were never really explained.
Jake solomon, one OF the chief
henchmen OF the Breach machine,
arose instantly to defend his master
18th motion to table the discussion.
Defend Speed-up.
The Breach policy of speed up and
Cooperation with the bosses was
report by Business Manager Pete
Maroney, VINO referred repeatedly 70
'berCer cooperation between the men
and the contractors" ana announced
chat we must consider me profit
ana loss OF the contractors
The Broach policy Of continued
exclusions from une meetings was
emphasized a week ago by the beat
ing up OF several worAers by two Of
mn special poilce. one OF THESE work
ers, otelnDerger, was so severely in
iured tnaJ ne was under the care OF
a physician. When the case came up
in court, IL was revealed that not
the hall, as Breach had stated, but
he himself had employed the SPECIAL
strong arm men. 1t was further re-
yealed that the costs OF the bond and
the attorney fees were charged IL
the union by Breach. This situation
under which the workers themselves
are forced to pay for the bearing up
Of their own members is the climax
Of Broach's recent activities.
Record as Misleaders.
These facts have caused certain of
the members Of the union to inquire
further into past activities of the
International. Besides the employ
ment of William A. Hogan, former
member of the Brindell ring and jail
bird, the international has packed
previous conventions TO stuff is own
ends. At the last convention which
was said TO have been actually len
by the Noonan machine of winch
Breach is a part, the whole New
York delegation was hand picked by
