the center of all that is reactionary in
the Jewish labor movement.
The Forward is the backbone of the
decadent socialist party in New York.
1t is dictator Of the reactionary union
bureaucracy centering in and around
the United Hebrew Trades. 1t bosses
the national administrations of the
needle unions. 1t is based upon sup
port from Jewish business interests.
Its influence has always been exerted
on the side of the conservative wing
of the unions. Il supported the old
United Garment Workers takers, and
it long boycotted the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers. For 10 years the
name of Hillman and Schlossberg
were taboo in its columns. Only when
these surrendered to Cahan did the
A. C. w. become a bona-fide labor
union to the Daily Forward. In the
present great struggle in the needle
trades this paper supports Sigman,
Schachtman, and the other reaction
airy bureaucrats with all its gigantic
resources and with the most unscrup-
ulous means. The rise of the left
wing Jewish daily Freiheit makes this
needle trades fight life and death
affair for the Forward.
The Forward, with its $4,000 cir
culation and vast income from adver-
tisements, is big capitahstic insti-
tuition. Its profits are enormous,
L. Ill &c nh 10 Nf-
ficiaI salaries. Abe Cahan receives
S17,500 and exp *nses yearly; Vladeck
$4,000 per year. Advertising man
ayers like Schlesinger learn" as much
as $4,000 per year. On May 9Th,
1926, the Freiheit published the fol-
lowing analysis of the Forward Asso-
citation stockholders: writer's, agents,
etc, employed by the Forward, 81 per
cent; manufacturers and business
men generally, 81 per cent; lawyers,
insurance brokers and professionals,
20 per cent; labor leaders, 9 per cent;
workers, per cent.
Repeatedly, in catering to the en-
ployers, the Daily Forward has been
guilty of strike breaking activities. In
1918, when in the general strike in
the New York mems clothing trade
the U. G. w. takers, assisted by the
Forward, betrayed the strike, masses
of workers violently demonstrated
against the paper, smashing the win
dows in the Forward building. In
1916 the Forward supported Schles-
singer in trying to put across fake
agreement in the cloakmakers' strike.
Result: a violent demonstration
against the Forward building, the re-
lection Of the agreement, the contin-
uation of the strike, and the eventual
securing Of much better terms.
In the great strikes of the New
York Furriers and Cloakmakers in
1926, with the very life Of the unions
at stake, the Forward, under the
guise of war against the left wing,
openly used its power and influence
to drive the workers back to the
shops. The Forward is a powerful
weapon in the hands of the employers
against the demands of the needle
workers for improved conditions and
real union.

 Police ceased fire. Farina, hands over his head. started to crawl out, but another shot came from the ambush and the battle was renewed. Tear bombs also were employed by police. but shifting winds blew the gas back toward the attacking party and this method of fighting had to be abandoned.
