1O-WEEK STRIKE
IN MINNEAPO
FURNITURE SHOP
Workers Picketing In
Cold Weather
(By Worker Correspondent

MIN TEAPOLIS, Jan. 10-For the
last Is weeks we have been carrying
on bitter struggle with the Brooks
Parlor Furniture Company and their
henchmen, the Citizens Alliance,
against the terrific speed-up system,
and the even more inhuman standard
of production" under which the work
ers are forced to the uttermost limit
of their endurance in order to COM
plete their work within the given
time.
1t would seem incredible and unbe-
lievable to the upholstery workers of
other cities, yet it is nevertheless true
that in the Brooks Parlor Furniture
Co. of Minneapolis, the wage for up
holstering a complete davenport was
$3.50, while the wage for a low chair
was $1.65.
Wages Cut.
However, the bosses decided that
even this was too good for the work
ers-and they issue an ultimatum that
those workers earning 60 cents to 80
cents an hour should continue at
that scale, but those earning 45 cents
to go cents an hour must give up 10
per cent of this amount, and those
earning 80 cents to 45 cents must take
a cut of 20 per cent. This means that
a davenport must now be upholstered
in toto for 1925 and low-chair for
S1.38.
This was the breaking point in the
patience of the workers. We elected
committee to discuss the matter
with the. bosses, but they absolutely
refused to recognize and deal with our
committee. This left but one course
open to us, and that was to fight.
. =. &. . Ont -Four Months.
1t is-new four months since we went
on strike and not single man of the
whole shop has gone back in spite of
the terrific storms and cold weather
now prevailing in this region. Our
picket line is unbroken from six
o'clock in the morning until far into
the night. Naturally, our bosses are
no exception, and fight us with every
weapon, endeavoring to Jail the most
active ones among US, even though it
be by frame-ups-while injunctions
are showered upon us one after an
other.
And as this has no weakening effect
ON US, they try to comfort themselves
by saying that we cannot stand up
under the severe winter. But we say
that surrender is utterly impossible.
We say that our families will not
freeze. to death. We say that our.
children will not starve to death.
We appeal at a time when help is
desperately needed. If every worker
will but give ten cents to our support,
we will be enabled to carry on our
struggle further.

MINER, INJURED,
CAN'T PRODUCE
ENOUGH; FIRED
Foreman Tells Him to
Wait 6 Months

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Jan. 10.-The
treatment that may be expected by
striking coal miners should they find
themselves working under open-shop
conditions is graphically illustrated
by the following cases brought to
light at Forbes Road, Pa, by repre-
sentative of the Pennsylvania-Oh Ohio
Miners Relief Committee, with head
quarters at Gil Penn. Ave-, Pitts
burgh, Pa.
Tony Caralli, a miner with a wife
and six children, was partly incapa-
citated while in the employ of the Key
stone Coke and Coal Company, an
open-shop concern. Being unable to
produce enough coal to satisfy the de-
mands of the bosses he was refused
any kind of work and is now
marooned at Forbes Road not having
the money to pay his transportation
out of the place. Caralli's oldest
child is IL and the youngest /.
Joseph Bryan had his leg broken in
mine No. of the Keystone Coke and
Coal Company in the year 1928. He
spent ten weeks in the hospital and
was out of work for seven months.
He then returned to work for $3.50
a day. On December Is of the same
year he was advised by the foreman
that he could not use him at all be-
cause of his inability to get out the
quantity of coal demanded by the
company, The foreman was generous
enough however to suggest that
Bryan hang around until the follow
ing summer when he might be given
employment of some kind. He is now
unable to secure job unless he con-
sents to work as a strikebreaker and
Bryan would rather starve than do
this.

American Opera Group
Present Faust" at the
Gallo Theatre

The opening performance of the
season of the American Opera Com
pany in English, was given at the
Gallo Theatre, last night with the fol-
lowing cast: DR.. Faustus, Patrick Kill
'seily; Faust Clifford Newdall; Meph-
istopheles, George Fleming Houston;
Valentine, Mark Daniels; Siebel, Edi-
son Rice; Marguerite, Natalie Hall;
Martha, Brownie PEBBLES.
In keeping with the characterize
ton of the Faust legend, the organi-
cation presented two tenors for the
role of Faust; one for the aged world
weary philosopher; the other for the
gay cavalier. Another innovation in
troduced last night in Gounod's opera
was the Siebel song which was pre-
scented as written in the original op-
era-that is, by young man, a light
lyric tenor; and not by contralto or
a mezzo-soprano, as usually given.
Tonight the American Opera Com.
pany will present Puccini's Madame
Butterfly" with Misses Sherman and
Oelheim and Messrs. Hedley and
Bust in the principal roles.

Diaz' Car Kills Nicaraguans.

Adolfo D "a conservative tool of
the United States interests in Mica
ragua, is busy denying a persistent
report of an attempt on his life, des-
patches from Managua state.
The three cars which comprised the
presidential cortege were attacked by
thirty Nicaraguans carrying machetes
and knives as Diaz was returning
from his coffee plantation to the
capital on New Years Day.
Several Nicaraguans attempted to
stop the first of the cars which con-
tanned Diaz, by throwing themselves
in front of the wheels. But the adroit-
ness of the chauffeur, who wheeled
to one side, saved Diaz.
The same maneuver was tried with
the other cars one of which made no
attempt to avoid the bodies and drove
over two of them. 1t is supposed that
the Nicaraguans were killed or seri-
ously injured.

Pay Rise for Navy Yard
Workers Held Too Low

WASHINGTON Jan. 10.-Agita-
ton among government navy yard
employees for living wage standard
has resulted in nominal increase of
1 to cents an hour. The majority
of these civilian employees will receive
only 1 or 2 cent increase.
John P. Frey, secretary treasurer
of the Metal Trades Department of
the American Federation of Labor, is
member of the Navy Department
Wage Board, which handed down the
small award. The workers in the war;
ious trades in the department are far
underpaid, their wage being consider
ably lower than that for similar work
outside the government service.

TRENTON, N. j., Jan. 10.-Another

hundred marines bound for death in
Nicaragua marched aboard the cruis-
ers Trenton, Raleigh and Milwaukee,
this morning.
The inhuman order forbidding the
presence Of wives or families of the

RED CROSS WILL
SEEK FUND FOR
CIVILIAN H ELP

Commencing next Tuesday, the
local chaptcr of the American Red
Cross viii undertake the task of
raising $1,000 for its Civilian Home
Service department, according to
Col. Charles l.. Phillips, chairman of
the chapter
In explaining the purpose of the
fund, Col. Phillips states that at
present there is no agency in the
city organized to take care of tran
sicnt indigcnts, who may be in need
of aid. The result is that business
houses and individuals are sub jectcd
to frequent calls for assistance.
Some Of these requests are deserv-
ing Of aid. More are not. No per
son likes to refuse aid to a really
needy ease, and above all no person
likes 70 be made the victim of some
professional beggar who makes Il
living off the generosity of others.
The Home Service department will
have the cooperation of the national
organization of the Red Cross. Per
sons applying for assistance will be

imposition. This investigation while
thoropqh, will not be such as to de-
lav aid in emergencies.

elpdcd in the campaion, these cities
forming part Of the FL Centre chap
ter.
Colonel Phillips has called a meet
ing of representatives of civic organ
izations tonight, and. at that time
plans will be drawn for the cam
paion which will be conducted in
conjunction with the annual Red
Cross roll call.
"When the people realize that the
purpose of the fund is to relieve
them of the burden of giving aid

New Laguna Road
Feasible Project
Engineer Sta tes

f. +. East, CHIEF engineer of the
Club of Southern Cali
fornia, and M. NJ. Sweeney, of
Holtvillc, returned to El Centre
last night after two days spent in
a survey of the proposed short road
to Laguna Mountains. They left
Pine Valley Wednesday morning,
and after going over the resort area,
made a trip into the Indian Reser-
vaton above Thing Valley, and
from there into Thing Valley and
by foot into Canebrakc Canyon.
Thursday morning they drove from
FL Centre to the head of Cancbrakc
Canyon over the proposed route,
thus covering the entire project.
Engineer East was very much in
tcrcsted in the Lagun; road, and cx-
pressed his opinion that it is Il
Feasible project. He took many pic
lures of the road and of Laguna
Resort, which he intends to use
with an article to be published in
an early issue of Touring Topics.
many surveys of the proposed road,
nancy surveys of the proposed road,
states that East was especially
pleased with the visit to Mountain
Palm Springs. According to Sweeney
this is beautiful spot, with run
ming water, surrounded by large
palm trees, and he recommends it
for "A Sunday drive as the distance
is only 40 miles, and the road is
cleared and passably graded. Pc
tween Palm Springs andCanebrakc
Canyon is Echo Well, which is very
because of the peculiar
ity of the echo there, and Sweeney
states that anyone making the trip
for pleasure should include this in
their drive.
