Hart, Schaffner and Marx, cloth
ing manufacturers of Chicago, said
to be one of the first concerns to &C
cept unionization of it's shons, which
were organized by the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers of America, re-

stores in New York, is owned by
Fart, Schaffner and Marx. The
alterations from nine stores are
gathered in at No ia F. 22nd St,
where normally seventy-five tailors

hours a week and receive twenty
seven dollars week wages.
Wallach Brothers lie. Hart.
Schaffner and Mark manager and
the foremen are so insolent to the
tailors that many times they did
not pay for whole afternoons merely
because some of the workers, upon
returning from their noon lunch
period, neglected to register the
time on their time-cards. although
their cards were properly recorded
rpon at quitting time which showed
that they had been , in the shop;
moreover, the foremen knew of their
presence. I have known four cases
in which the company stole the
afternoons wages, particularly those
Of a poor woman who was told not
to complain about or she would be
fired"
Just how a unionized concern can
operate an open shop, paying the
lowest possible wages in the city is
question to be asked from the of
ficialdom of the Amalgamated who
know quite well that Wallach
Brothers is none other than the
Hart, Schaffner and Marx Com
pany. Why have they not attempted
to organize this alteration shop? In
fact, some of the workers of this
shop appealed to the Amalgamated
quite few times for organization,
but the Amalgamated fatty refused
to take steps to do so.
Is this a concession to Hart
Schaffner and Marx by the Anal
gamated? We are inclined to be-
heve that it is so.

$500 German Textile
Workers Locked Out

BERLIN (By MaiD .-Negotia-
tions between the mill-owners and
the employees in the Duren textile
industry having broken down, the
employers locked out their workers
yesterday.
Four thousand five hundred male
and female workers are affected,
and a prolonged struggle is feared.
The mill-owners refuse to consid-
er any increase whatever in the
present tariff, as they claim condi-
tons in the industry are too @d.
The workers are demanding in
creases up to Is per cent.

FRANCE, BRITAIN
HIDE NAVY PACT
Cushendun Would Put
Up Arms Conference

GENEVA, Sept. 1.-THE opposi-
ton Of the United States govern
ment to the Franco British alliance
implied in the naval pact and to the
attempts of the allied powers to can
eel war debts owed to the United
States is taken on authoritive
sources here to be the cause of
Lord Cushendun's strong demands
that the preparatory disarmament
commission meeting be postponed
until some form of naval agreement
with the United States be attained.
At the meeting which considered
the calling of the disarmament COM
mission Cushendun insisted that the
meeting be held in February or
March instead of November, as
urged by the German government.
The French and British governments
also are united in their refusal to
publish the Franco-B British naval
pact.
Observers here believe that the
disarmament commission would be a
complete fiasco, even as far as salts
factory agreements between the
European and United States gov
ernments are concerned, unless
Washington can be induced to grant
some sort of a compromise, or other
agreements can be entered into
which would pacify the American
governments naval ambitions and in
some way counter-act the implied
threat in the Franco-British naval
pact.

Betrayal AT IS
HAMBURG MEETS
League Member Tells
of Demonstration
lBy a Worker Correspondent }

(By a Worker Correspondent
HAMBURG, Germany, (By Mail)
i arrived in Hamburg, Germany
August 25th, and l am very glad to
tell you that l was fortunate enough
to witness and participate in a de-
monstration arranged by the Ham
burg district of the Communist
Party and their brothers, the Young
Communist League. This demon
stration was to protest against the
Socialist" German governments
battleship ratification. One of the
battleships is being built already.
1t will be called the Panzer Kreut-
ger A.
Our German comrades held IS
demonstrations in as many parts
of the city. These demonstrations
were not held in square as are
ours in the United States. Our Ger
man comrades marched through the
streets and covered a large terri
tory which belongs to their section.
l participated in a section where
most of the comrades are seamen,
longshoremen or are in some way
connected with marine activity.
These comrades are called Rote Ma
rine (Red Marines) and were dress
ed in uniform. Other comrades were
also in uniform They were the Rote
Front Kaemfer (Red Front Fight
ers). Both belong to a military or
ganization called the Rote Front
Bundle.
The women were in uniform and
had band on their arms. They
are Red nurses and when the pro-
letarian revolution will come in
Germany they will give medical aid
to the Red Army and the Red Fleet.
These Red nurses are members of
an organization known as Arbeiter
Samaritan Bundle.
We had aworkers' band, workers
with red flags and a small truck
with sign jeering at the social
democratic party. The S. D. P. of
Germany is proud of the battleships
which are now being built.
After the comrades marched
through the streets and covered
their territory, we stopped at GER
tain corner and held meeting. We
had speakers on both sides of the
street. After the speakers conclud-
ed, cur comrades demonstrated
back to headquarters of the sea-
mems section of the party. (Inter-
national Seamen's Club.
This demonstration shows that the
police are helpless and afraid when
the Communists hold demonstra-
tons in Germany because the Com
munist movement in Germany is a
big power. Street cars, automobiles,
motorcycles, bicycles were held up
for about eight minutes every time
we passed a street intersection, but
the police were afraid to interfere.
l hope that our movement in the
United States will become a power
as in Germany; I hope, too, for a

ment of that master class institu-
ton, which refused to renew its
subscription to the Daily Worker
last year, was told that some of the
members of said council were

So you see, that the boss class, the

hand in hand against the Commu-

The precarious majority of the
"Colorados" (the union of all liberal
factions) in the Uruguayan Cham
Der of Deputies may give way in
the coming congressional elections
to majority of the "Blancos" (the
conservatives) and a virtual dicta-
torship.
The liberals have been in power
for the last fifty years, but having
split in several factions, the con-
servatives, whose official name is
"Partido Nacionalista, first sue
ceeded in winning a majority in the
National Administrative Council
which shares the executive power
with the president, and later Sc
cured an absolute majority of the
senate and several posts in the
cabinet. Thus, while the President
Campistegui is a Colorado" the
ministry is coalition comprising
members of all liberal factions and
the conservatives.
The "Batllista" Colorados is the
! strongest and most advanced wing
of the liberals. They are anti-clerical
and reformist The other Colorado
factions, the "Vieristas" (from their
leader Viera) whose party name is
'Radicales Colorados's (Red Radi-
cals) and the "Colorados Riveristas"
from their leader Rivera) repre-
sent the right wing of the liberals,
the former the bureaucracy, and the
latter the landowners and the rural
business people.
Communists Hold Balance.
In the Chamber of Deputies the
two conservative factions, (the
"Partido Nacionalista" and the
"Radicales Nacionalistas") have 50
deputies, and the three liberal fac
tions have 81 deputies, 80 Batllistas,
s Riveristas and 3 Vieristas. There
is in addition one Catholic deputy
which increases the number of con-
( servatives to so. Thus the two Com
munists often held the balance of
/ power.
President Campistegui belongs to
the Riverista (the Conservative
wing of the Colorados The River
ista and Vierista factions of the
/ liberal coalition have demanded
that all important political posts
should be divided equally among
the three factions; although the
third faction, the Batllistas, greatly
outnumber the other two. The BAIL
listas refused this demand. There
upon the two minority factions de-
cided to break away from the coali-
ton and to oppose their own candi-
dates against the Ballistas. This
would seem to assure victory to
the conservatives (Blancos) who will
have to compromise with the dis
sident "Colorados" to keep their sup
port in parliament.
Dictatorship Looms.
President Campistegui is prepar-
ing to put down any opposition and
I it is announced that he is "substitut-
ing almost all chiefs of police and of
the army units by elements of his
entire confidence that is by River
ista or conservative heads of the
armed forces.

dictatorship may be inaugurated
shortly in the hitherto most liberal
