FOREMAN
DOES THE DIRTY
WORK OF BOSS
Only Fighting Union
Can End Slashes

by a Worker Correspondent
FLINT, Mich, (By MaiD.- In De-
partment 3B of the plant of the
Fisher Body Co. here, there is a sub
foreman just recently promoted
from the ranks who has become all
ears and eyes in his anxiety to find
ways and means to cut the workers
wages further. He just put thru a
price cut on the quarter panels in
this department.
Before he was appointed sub-fore-
man, he used to be one of the first
to complain against wage cuts. Now
that he has become a straw boss, he
shows absolutely no sympathy for
the workers. Now his only ambi-
ton is to prove himself a slave
driver. He prays for the day when
he will succeed in pulling some fore
man down and get his place. Whsn
any repairman is short of work, he
puts him 20 work trucking and la
boring. There is only one way to
stop such price cuts, and that is to
organize union which will fight for
the workers of the auto industry.

A union that is
MILITANT NEED
OF The FIREMEN
Begging for Increase
Does No Good
(By a Worker Correspondent

(By a Worker Correspondent
The firemen of Philadelphia have
been waging an intensive campaign
during the past two weeks for an
increase of salary. They are NUM-
cipal employees, who frequently risk
their lives for the munificent sum of
$3.50. Some of them advance" to the
stage where they secure as much as
$3.50 per day or total of $33 per
week, out of which sum they have
erous expenses, including
"shakedowns" to swell the campaign
chests of the republican organization
before the primary and regular cleo
tons.
The campaign to secure a decent
standard of living took the fo~m of
radio broadcasting; person an-
peals to fellow workers; and a lavish
disbursement of placards and leaf
lets reading as follows:
FIRE! FIRE!
The Philadelphia firemen protect
your homes. Help Them Protect
Theirs! By sending word to the
mayor that you are in fEvor of an
increase of salary. Please write a
letter to the mayor and councilmen.
OH yes, please send a letter to
the city fathers. Well scores of
thousands were sent. With what re-
suit? One Councilman, Hall, often
known as City Hall, openly scorned
all the suggestions. In fact, he was
peeved about it. The poor million
aires, realtors and property holders
couldn't have their taxes raised
merely to provide increases in salary
for firemen.
The mayor, the Hon. Mr.. Mackey,
what did he do? The usual thing
nothing.
But the avalanche of letters grew
daily. Something had to be done
about it. And so something was
done. The firemen were promised
(sometime in the future) raise of
a whole SOC a week. Whether this
promise will be kept remains to be
seen. Philadelphia politicians are
always good promisers, so the fire
men can regard the matter as highly
unDromising.
However, the firemen can, if they
wish, make a real effort to better
their conditions. Build strong
union, organize all the firemen,
hosemen, and laddermen into one
big union, and not ask the citizens

Ely A. B. MAGlL.

On Dec. Is, 1925, a group of left
wing Jewish workers in New York
C-sy, organized as the Freiheit ORA
matte Studio, began the task of
training actors for works. the
atre. Only five days later confer
2nce of 100 working class organiza-
tons founded the Workers T. G atre
Assccia' ion. (ARTEF), to which the
Freiheit Dramatic Studio was affili-
ated.
Thus the cornerstone was laid.
But many such cornerstones have
been laid-and that's about all. In
this case, however, the initiators of
the movement for a Jewish workers
theatre approached their task with
an eanestness and devotion that
carried on despite all obstacles and
whipped the idea CT a non-commer-
cial workers theatre into a living
reality. The lath and plaster work
had t. be done if the structure was
to stand up, the raw material, work
ers in the hops, had to be nodded
into convincing actors. This couldn't
be done in a week or a month or
even a year. And so a complete
dramatic school was established. a
director Jacob Mestel, an actor of
many years experience, and other
teachers engaged, and work was
started. Work it was, requiring tire
less devotion and sacrifice. After
hours of toll in the shops or on the
picket lines the members Of the
F'reiheit Dramatic Studio would
come to their classes every night of
the week and all day Sunday and
spend long hours of difficult study
and rehears al.
For thee years these workers
studied, and now at the 45th Street
Theatre, just off Broadway, the
Workers Theatre Association pre-
sents the Freiheit Dramatic Studio
iii the first production cf the Jewish
Workers Theatre, Beinush Sreiman's
trilogy. Sat the Gate" The produc-
ton opened Sunday and will be given
twice day on successive Sundays.
At the age of 81, Beinush Stei-
man, a Russian Jewish worker, gave
up his life fighting for the Russian
Revolution. He left behind him his
dramatic trilogy, consisting of "At
the Gate" messiah Ben Joseph
and "The Red Child"
So much for history.
/ The first production of the Jew
ish Workers Theatre proved to be
twofold surprise. Surprise number
l: the acting and the production as
q whole attained q level equalling
and in some respects surprising pro-
fessional performances. AS far as
theatrical technique is concerned,
cat the Gate" requires no apology.
Surprise number 2: the play it.
self is a weak, Intellectual piece,
thoroly alien in dramaturgic ma
terial and treatment to the class
conscious proletariat. Amazing as
it may seem, the first production of
the Jewish Workers Theatre is a
/ play built on-a messiah theme!
