5000 Men, Women Children Picket Ohio Scab Nine Correspondent Say
Mass Pcketing
Keeps ScdbS ont
of Ohio Mines

by a Worker Correspondent
MARTINS FERRY, Ohio, (By
MaiD---A recent report in the To-
cal press to the effect that the of.
ficials of mine No. i'll Neffs,
Ohio, were prepared to run the
mine. ON the 60-4O basis, provoked
the miners who have since been
maintaining continuous picket
line. which has in the past ten
days gradually grown. Today
brought 600 men, women and chill
dren out. The men are determined
that this mine shall not run with
scabs, and are turning out daily.
The officials of the sub-district
are conspicuous by their absence
since they got wind of mass picket
ing. No attempt has been made to
stop the picketing by force. Last
week the president of the local
union and leader of the piekets was
threatened, and given "a hours to
discontinue mass picketing. When
he and the men refused, he was
arrested the following day, tho
later released. U. S. marshals and
Vic Donahey's sO-called "Observ-
ers" are in the field. The miners
are of the opinion that these OBJ
servers are in the field to terror
ize them, sent in by the sO-called
friend of labor, Vic Donahey. The
effect on the men, however. is to
solidify their ranks and to intensity
their mass picketing, as the best
method of keeping out the scabs,
as is proven by the ten days with
out a man entering the mine.

naivete and innocence, with the usual
complications of the women OF his
past affairs cropping up at inoppor-
tune moments to supply the farce
situations, the girls love for boy
of her own age and the expose to the
audience of her character not being
as pure and simple as the profess
sional Lothario imagines. In the end
the "great necker" is rescued into
more holy state of matrimony by
friend of his own age of long stand
ing. Additional comedy relief is pro-
vided by the secondary plot--the en-
deavors of a dialect motion picture
producer, played by James B. Car
son, to get a picture passed by the
National Board of Censors, of which
the young girls mother, played by
Blanche Ring, is one of the censons
to be overcome.
In short, "The Great Necker" fol-
lows the tried and trusted rules for
turning out low comedy farce with
little or no thought of the element
of freshness or originality.
AS farceur Taylor Holmes has
long been recognized on our stage.
Marjorie Gateson, now apparently
graduated from musical comedy,
graces the role of the woman that
the "great necker" eventually mar
ries, while Blanche Ring, likewise
from musical comedy, does everything
possible with hopelessly manufac-
tured part. Irene Purcell shippers and

Thus, Negroes become antagonized.
Negro women of today, as we'll as
unorganized white workers, serve as
a menace to organized labor by being
unconsciously forced to undermine
union standards. AS long as the
unions keep them out, either by fail
ing to see the need for organizing
them or by deliberately shutting the
door in their faces, they will be forced
into being innocent agents of the en-
ployers and constantly available as
scabs. They challenge the trade
unions:

IRONWO0D, Mich, (By MaiD -
Very few articles appear from this

Recently the business men of the

This was just another scheme by
which the miners were shown a good

to make them forget their hard life

revelry which abounded, accompanied
by lots of liquor drinking, the slaves

DILLONVILLE, Ohio, By Mail y
On Saturday, March II, mass picket
ing started at the Wheeling Erie Coal
Mining Co. No. l. About 200 scabs
We're working under the protection Of
Bensow How, but the pickets came
out SO tremendously the dicks could
do nothing only look on. There must
have been fully 5000 piekets, children
and their mothers and fathers. Prac-
tically the whole mining population
was on hand, but everything was
quiet. There were no arrests.
Monday the Cooperative tried to
deliver a few groceries to the union
miners who are still allowed to live
in company houses, but the lockout
dick stuck his hand out. So l had to
stop. "Wait till l call up for orders" "
he said. The order came. What was
it? You can't drive in. Give me the
names of your customers" Then he
went and notified my customers and
they all came to get their groceries.
Then | asked the dick why he wouldn't
let me drive in.
"Wel, you was in the picket line
last Saturday and you took a truck
load of pickets home.
YES" | said, Whats the differ
ence if take my friends home?"
well, you are taking care Of your
interests" he said, "and we are look
ing out for ours" The poor fish said

There were three arrests on the
thirteenth, Andy Blahoves, Alec

next day they were let out charged

so!
On the fourteenth things were a

WOMAN PLEADSTO
UNIONIzE NEGROES
Calls Unorganized Men
Menace

(By 4 Woman Worker C0rre5poa&saf.)
Because economic circumstances
and ignorance of consequences -often
force Negro women to accept the low
est possible wages, this gf9sp of
workers is a serious problem in indus
try. In 1910, according to the Bureau
of Labor Statistics, 2,013,981 Negro
women, or SAT per cent of all the
women over ten years of age in the
United States, were ''gainfully en-
ployed." True, this percentage went
down to 1879 per cent in 1920, repre-
senting 1871 ,289 women. Yet in both
1910 and 1920, the Negro women
workers made up one-tenth of the to-
tai population ten years of age and
over.
For years, Negro women were not
accepted or recognized in industry.
Barred from factories, they were
forced to stick to domestic work. Crit
les who state that Negro women favor
low standards of living, are oblivious
to the fact that Negroes work for
lower wages because they cannot get
jobs by any other means. They are
faced to take what they can get in
order to make livelihood.
Since the war, Negro women have
migrated to the North in great num-
bers. Employers are hiring them be-
cause their living costs are cheap and
they can work long hours for little
pay. The most horrible examples OF
this are the laundries. They are due
at work at 7:15 A. M. and get off at
P. M. What terrible hours! Then
the wages they receive are small
None make over $12 or SIS a week
/ Owing to the wet floors and constant
atmosphere of steam, it is impossible
for them to keep healthy.
Non-unionized garment factories
are also employing Negro women be.
cause they work cheaper The major.
ity of them are forced to take work
home at night in order to make
enough to live on. Then sometimes
the miserable wages run out before
the next pay comes in. The Negro is

( 1t would be to the interest of even the
non-union white workers to cooper
ate collectively with Negro workers
in fighting their way into the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, or failing
that, to form their own organizations
to demand better conditions from the
employers.
Only the bosses welfare is served
by keeping the Negroes segregated
And the bosses understand this! That
is why, when Negro women are given
work in factories, sthey are always
forced to sit separately from the
white workers and to use separate
dressing rooms The bosses heighten
/ the antagonism between the races still
more by separate piece rates.
A few years ago, the unions had
/ no thought OF organizing Negroes.
When finally they were admitted into
unions, thru having gone out on SYM
pathetic strike or for refusing to scab,
it was with the promise Of receiving
better conditions. Many unions even
now, however, bar Negro workers.
And those unions admitting them
often fail to protect them on the job

I
MINNEAPOLIS, MINI (By MaiD
The initial mass meeting of the
n.wly organized Northwestern Trade
Union Committee for Friendly Rela-
lions with Soviet Russia was held in
the Minneapolis Court House AS
sembly Hail. where an audience of
1900 gave enthusiastic reception to
Ern ,st Lundeen, former congress-
man from the Fifth District, and
prominent Farmer-Laborite, and to
William Watkins of the Switchmen's
Union, chairman of the first rank
and file trade union delegation which
visited Russia on the occasion of the
Tenth Anniversary Celebrations last
November.
Jos. A. Poirier Of the Railroad Te-
legraphers Union, chairman of the
Trade Union Committee for Friendly
Relations with the Soviet Union, pre-
sided at the meeting, stating that the
overflow attendance gave evidence of
the friendly sentiments of the north
west towards the Soviet government
and the importance of the work I'M
dertaken by the committee.
Meeting damned.
Every available seat and chair was
filled long before time for the meet
ing to open, while hundreds of peo-
Pile stood through the evening to hear
the reports of the delegations. Keen
interest was evidenced In the re-
ports made by Lundeen and Watkins
on the progress of the first work
ers' and farmers government, and
Watkins was enthusiastically ap-
plauded when he stated that in the
Soviet Union the workers and farm
ers rule. Watkins further said "In
America, when the coal miners of
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Colorado go
on strike, they are slaughtered and
shot down. They pay with their lives
for having the temerity to ask for
barely decent living conditions and
wages. But in Russia, the workers
run the country. When an unsatis-
factory condition arises, their trade
union committees meet and remedy
IT, he INuSSldlIS are 1Sli-1SO anu
well-clothed. While they have few
Injuries as yet, they have all the
necessities and are secure from the
fear Of unemployment and starvation
for themselves and their families"
Ernest Lundeen was given a rous-
ing reception and close attention when
he told of the marvellous progress
made by the Russian workers and
peasants, who had taken over bank
rupt, chaotic country covering one
sixth of the worlds surface and in
( ten years, only five of which were
comparatively peaceful, had made It
shining example for the workers
of other countries. "The Russian
people want no war;" said Lundeen.
"All they ask is to be permitted to
work out their problems and to con-
tinue with their program of making
their country truly civilized one,
where those who toll and produce all
wealth will receive the full fruits of
their labor" He cited the Soviet
Unions progress in Industry, its de-
velopment of hydro-electric plants,
it's progress in science and in the
bringing Of education and culture to
all its people, as reasons why such a
great nation should be recognized by
the United States. Lundeen said,
