ALL WORKERS ON
PULLMANS MAY
SOON walk OUT
Strategy is in Hands
of Two

A national strike of nearly 5000
Pullman porters and maids in &c dis
tricts from coast to coast is a pos
sibility for tomorrow.
The national officers of the Pull
man Porters' Union announced last
night that unless an emergency board
is created by President Coolidge the
strike will be called. The creation
of the board has been recommended,
under the terms Of the Watson Park
er Act, by a federal mediator who re-
Gently visited New York to verify the
tabulation of the unions national
strike vote.
The porters and maids empowered
their executive board by vote of
approximately $3.50 to 25 to call the
strike.
If an emergency mediation board is
created the union will demand that it
award them union recognition, mini
mum wage of $3.50 month and the
elimination of the workers depend
ence on tips, the eight-hour day and
the 240-hour month.
CII1hGOI SdhCIS I1hCNs
If the republican party administra-
ton at Washington through Presi-
dent Coolidge does not appoint the
board, the workers will go on strike
to enforce these demands directly on
the Pullman organization.
The Watson-Parker Act, supported
by the officialdom of railroad labor
unions, places these unions by statute
at the mercy of the federal govern
nent in their dealings with the en-
ployers. The federal government in
arbitration or in times of strike has
never failed to support the employers
against the workers.
In the meantime Pullman is con-
gregating hordes of southern strike
breakers in yards in New York, Chi
cago, Kansas City and other railroad
ccnters. Pullman has it's spies work

and even entering the national Of

professional strikebreaker, has been
retained to fight the union.

MOSCOW, June 6.-That the engi-

Donetz sabotage conspiracy was re-
vealed yesterday when Prosecutor

Kusma had rebuked Gorlov when
the latter had protested against the
sabotage and had threatened him with
dismissal if further complaints were
made. Gorlov denied being a member
of the counter-revolutionary organi-
cation but admitted having received
six hundred roubles after which he
made no further complaints.

'BLOCKERS TO AID
MILLINERS' FIGHT
ION MISLEADERS
Zaritzky Act Is Scored
Almost Unanimously

Despite the threatening presence of
Max zaritsky, president of the Inter
national Cloth Cat, Cap and Millinery
Workers Union, an exceptionally
crowded membership meeting of
Blockers' Local AZ condemned the at
tempt of the international leaders to
destroy the second largest local in the
Organization, Millinery Hand Work
ers' Local 43. The meeting took place
in Bryant Hall Tuesday night and
lasted from to 1:30 o'clock.
With but five members of the 900
attending voting non-concurrance, the
recommendation of the executive
board of the Blockers' Local which
called in the strongest terms for
moral and financial support to the
fight of the Milliners for the main
tenance of their union, was enthus-
Iiastically carried.
Zaritsky Threatens.
This overwhelming vote was re-
corded despite the fact that Zaritsky
| demanded and due to his power was
granted the privilege to deliver long
and threatening speeches both at the
| beginning and after the discussion.
A committee from the Milliners'
Local, which, according to the Zarit-
sky edict, is no longer in existence,
was permitted to answer the attacks
of the right wing chief and ask the
Blockers for support. The leadership
of the Blockers' Local headed by A.
Golden, manager, also defended the
right of the Milliners' Local to exist.
Exposes Zaritsky.
In hi speech, Golden exposed the
sham excuses given by Zaritsky's
clique for their order to dissolve
Local 49, He showed that the local
had grown from 400 to 1000 under
the leadership of those Zaritsky de-
sired to expell as Communists, and
that the Blockers' Local would be the
next to be fought by the general
board if Local 43 were beaten.
Gladys Schechter, of the milliners'
committee Of A spoke for the sup
posedly non-existant local, which has
been compelled to call strikes (many
already victorious) against the bosses
and the international officials. Others
on the committee were Frieda Fraidis,
Gussie Rosen and Ida Krietchmer.
The result of the discussion, by
Golden, Schechter and large number
of members was that support by as
sistance in picketing was pledged by
the local meeting. The local con-
demned the attempt of the Zaritsky
controlled general executive board to
make scabs out of members of other
locals in the same shops.

ITO SEARCH ALASKA FOR MISSING MAN;
 CASE IS UNUSUAL

Search for Swan Johnson, veal thy Bothell. Wash, rancher who mysteriously disappeared from his home near Seattle several weeks ago, has been extended to Alaska, according to late advices received from Seattle.
 Prosecutor Ewing D. ,Colvin, of King County, has been working on the case and has been supervising sweeping investigations for some time. Deputies on the case, and friends and relatives of Johnson, are of the belief Johnson has met with foul play. John Johnson, Swans brother, is an Alaskan miner, and is said by relatives to have sent more than $30,000 to Swan Johnson in Seattle for in- vestment during the past fifteen years.
 The torso of an unknown man was found near Bellevue. last month, and scientific investiga- tions are being made by J. l.. Wor- cester, professor of anatomy at the University of Washington in an attempt to identify it. Although Colvin has been informed the tor so is that of a man younger than Johnson, who was more than 60 years old, the Prosecutor declared there were several facts connect ed with the torso which were dove- tailed with the disappearance of Johnson.
 There are a dozen startling facts connected with the, case, Colvin is quoted as saying, "and shall make every effort to solve the mystery of Johnsons disap. pearance."

THE SATIN WOMAN"
 AT PALACE SUNDAY

Mrs. Wallace Reid, the producer and star of the spectacular drama, "The Satin Woman which comes to the Palace Theatre next Sun- day, holds a unique position not only in the film industry but among the prominent women of America.
 Mrs. Reid is not only one of the most prominent club women in the United States. being active in many organizations and prominent in the Federation of Women s Clubs, but she is the active head of her own business as motion picture producer. Furthermore in addition to handling the finan- cial and business end of a compli- cated venture such as the making of motion pictures. she personally stars in her own pictures and ranks as one of the foremost emo- tional actresses of the silver screen.
 Despite her social and business activities, Mrs. Reid is a fond and devoted mother to her two children. Wallace, Jr, and Betty, on whom she lavishes constant care and attention.
 Although Mrs. Reid has been producing feature pictures for the past few years she has not per sonally appeared on the screen recently. When "The Satin Wo- man" was submitted to her in story form, she instantly decided that here was the character role she had been looking for. The reason for this being that Mrs. Reid is a firm believer in having all her pictures carry message or teach a lesson on some vital point.
 'The Satin Woman" is a sub- tie, though none the less pro nounced play, showing the unhap- piness that may be caused by vanity in woman. Although the picture lies on the verge of the spectacular, the real strength of it lies in its powerful dramatic ap- peal to the emotions. M

 NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Antarctica is 2,300 miles from civilization, but many, if not all, of the cele- brated comforts of the twentieth century living will be provided for the men of the Byrd expedition when they reach their base on the Ross Sea ice barrier.
 A village of six or more houses, carried south in sections aboard ship, will be erected on the snowy fringe of the south polar sonti- nent. The buildings will be set into the ice to depth of fonr feet and will be strongly anchored to protect them from the terrific gales that sweep seaward from tho high continental dome. In winter the quarters will be buried in snow to safeguard them still further and communication among the various units will be through tnn- nels hewn out of the ice.
 Indoor Sports
 During the long winter months when the temperature will ap- proach so degrees below zero. the outdoor activities of the expedi- tion will be sharply restricted but the boys will find plenty to do in- doors. Between turns at wash ing dishes, mendilg clothes, do- ing each others barbering. keep ing the records up to date, tend ing the dogs. overhauling the equipment and maintaining camp routine. they'll be playing theii 115 records on the three camp phonographs. banging ont tunes on the small piano, reading the li- brary of nearly 2.000 volumes, or serenading themselves with uke- lele and banjo.

 Perhaps the most novel method ever used is the one Richard Dix appropriated in his latest farce, Let's Get Married" which comes to the Coliseum tonight. As his father is a manufacturer of hymn books, Richard hits on the easiest way out. A friend of his is about to go to the South Seas. Dix writes series of letters to Mary telling her of his adventures among the cannibals. Tn glowing terms he describes their conversion and pictures them as throwing away their gin bottles for his hymnals. He gives the letters to his pal who is. about to leave, with ex- plicit instructions as when he is to mail them.
