CHARGE WALKER,
SMITH CONDONE
TRACTION STEAL
Weinstone Tells Toilers
of Betrayal
Continued from Page ome)

(C0nClnUed from rage OUe/
the city for long hours of difficult
labor. This gang which maintains a
company-union spy system that keeps
over fourteen thousand workers under
conditions of slavery wants the T.
cent fare in order to pay greater diyi-
alends to the bankers who control the
Traction linxa of the city. This COM
pany opeieses its lines SO that the
congested conditions have become a
menace to the welfare of the millions
who ride on the street cars, subways
and elevated lines.
''The traction barons and bankers
who operate the traction lines have
made millions of dollars at the ex-
pense of the great masses of people of
this city. The wages of the workers
of New York are too low to stand an
additional expense from their income
for the increased fare. This steal
must be fought vigorously by organ
lied labor of the city. The workers
must demand the retention of the s.
cent fare and in spite of what the
courts may say, what the politicians
may decide, the workers must refuse
to pay the increased fare.
Mass Refusal.
"By mass solidarity the workers
must show to this company and the
capitalist politicians that they will re-
fuse to pay an additional fare for the
rotten service on the traction lines.
The traction situation in New York
will not be changed as long as the city
government is in the hands of the re-
publican and democratic politicians
who are the servants of the big bust
ness interests.
"More than ever before there is a
need for labor party to clean out
from office the politicians of the capt
talist class who must be held account
able for the congestion and health
menacing conditions upon the traction
lines. The workers Of New York
must hold protest meetings and dem
constructions against this increased
fare to show the politicians that they
will not be passive in the face of
these blows against their standards of
living. They must send delegations
from all sections of the city to demand
that steps be taken for the mainten-
ance of the Scent fare.
Action, Not Words.
"They must demand action, not
words, from these politicians. They
must not be fooled by the sham bat
ties of the Tammany Hall politicians.
"The workers of the city must
fight for the right of the traction
workers to organize; for decent wages

among these underpaid, overworked
servants.
TO all workers we say: Fight for
the Scent fare! Refuse to pay the
additional fare! Organize the resist
the fare increase! Fight for a labor
party. Fight for a city government
that will serve the interests of the
overwhelming masses of the people
instead Of the small handful Of bank
ers and traction barons.
