FREIHEIT OUTING
HERE TOMORROW

Tomorrow will witness the first
Freiheit excursion ever held. Two
steamers, the Clearmont and the On
tario, will leave their docks at 2 p. m.
on long trip on the Atlantic Ocean
to Atlantic City. There the workers
who join the excursion will be able
to go swimming and take in the many
features of what is considered Amer
ica's most famous bathing resort.
There will be bathing, rowing,
dancing; refreshments, and many
other novelties to keep the tempo of
the members of the Freiheit Army
in good humor. Workers intending to
go should procure their tickets as
soon as possible, because the supply
has been almost completely sold out:
it was announced last night.

FUR JOINT BOARD
WINS IN STRIKE

While the dual right wing fur
riers Joint Council, established by the
American Federation of Labor Of
ficials, is being torn by dissensions
marked by increased bitterness, the
left wing Joint Board Furriers Union
is successfully carrying on its cam
paign to improve conditions in the
shops. This has been proved by a
general wage raise of 81, So and SO
won in a shop by 20 workers after a
strike lasting three days.
The strike in the shop had been
called after it was discovered that
the employer, dazzled by the oppor-
tunities Tor greater exploitation which
shop of registered workers offered
him, had ordered his workers to reg
ister in the fake right wing union.
After three days of energetic picket
ing the firm, The Mitchell Fur Co.,
305 Seventh Ave-, it was compelled
to ask the Joint Board for a settle
lnent.
In the meantime the right wing
group in the Joint Council, which is
completely dissatisfied with the open
shop conditions in the trade, are max
ing sharper and sharper attacks
against the Stetsky- -McGrady clique,
for having broken the once powerful
Furriers' Union

without success. With unbreak-
able solidarity and unconquer-
able fighting spirit, the miners
slowly built the union. Gradual
ly the organization extended its
influence into almost every coal
district and it brought about
far-reaching improvements in
the conditions of the miners.
Powerful, progressive and mill
tant, it stood at the head of the
whole trade union movement.
But since the reactionary
Lewis clique came into power
the advance of the union has
been stopped and the organiza-
tion has gone rapidly downhill.
Because of the criminally wrong
policies of Lewis and his crowd, the
union has lost heavily in membership,
it has lost its one-time control of the
industry, it's former fighting spirit
and progressivism have been swamp
