In religion the KAYAKS are Mo
hammedans, but are rather lax in
their adherence to this faith. Usu-
ally they are guided by the common
law, which has nothing to do with
Islam. The family life of these
nomads is based upon the patri-
archal system, which gives complete
power to the head of the family.
Women occupy subor ,.nate po-

BUTCHER union
BEGINS DRIVE
Calls Rally Sunday to
Organize Workers

Retail butcher store workers are
called to a mass meeting this Sun
Gay afternoon at o'clock by the
Progressive Butcher and Poultry
Workers Union, for the purpose of
beginning an organization drive in
the trade in order to gain union
standards and conditions of work.
The meeting will be held in the r.
wing Plaza Hall, 18th St. and Irving
Place.
This union, established recently
by a majority OF the membership of
the right wing butchers union,
whom the reactionary officials ex-
PEELED for being too militant. has
grown remarkably in size, while the
old union is on its last legs. The
drive the progressive union now
plans is to embrace the whole city,
where nearly all the stores are nom
union.
Proof that the old union is rap
idly disintegrating is given by an
active member of the union, who
declares he was approached by some
missionaries of the right wing or
ganization. The chairman Of the
executive board of the reactionary
union, together with the recording
secretary, asked this member to de-
mand from his leaders the initiation
of "peace" movement. The details
of the scheme were, according to
this worker: The left wing member
was asked to attend the meeting
Sunday, take the floor and demand
that a committee he elected to ne
gotiate with the reactionaries.
The officers of the left wing
union, as well as the workers ap-
preached, point to this as proof of
the bankruptcy of the bureaucrats,
and, of course, refuse any dealings
with them.

50 GIRLS STRIKE
IN CUSHION SHOP
Unorganized Workers
Fight Wage Cut

Fifty workers in the Kay Manu-
featuring Company plant, at 10
Warren St., Brooklyn, cushion MAX
ers, nearly all young girls, are out
on strike today as result Of their
refusal to be cheated out of more
and more of their earnings by a
scheme whereby the bosses cut the
prices paid in their piece-work sys-
tenn.
This is the second day the work
ers. never before organized. are
striking. After a walkout that
lasted till $3.50 in the afternoon of
the first day, the boss called the
workers in and argued that they
were not loosing any money by his
scheme, even going so far as to- in
crease rates two cents half dozen
cushions. However, the girls walked
cut again when they saw that this
would not enable them to earn suf-
ficient to live on, and they are still
out on strike.
The struggle arose when a new
kind of work was given the girls,
different in grade, cheaper in price,
but taking just as long to produce.
This substitution reduced the wages
of the workers from $3.50 a day to
81 day.
A committee of two had gone to
see the employer to protest against
the change of work, but instead OF
seeing the boss, VINO, they were told,
was not in, they were told by minor
bosses that "if they didn't like it"
fhey could go home" Reporting
back to the girls, they were assured
that all would walk QUO if the two
were fired. All girls then got up
end started for the clothing room,
but found the door locked, with the
key in the possession of the fore
lady, who refused to let them out.
They finally saw the boss and his
attempts to trick them into submits
sion was met with unanimous
waIkout Of the entire department.
Eighty-five girls are employed in
this plant. Fifty are out. Thirty
five more still work in the mattress
department. The striking workers
are scheduled to get together in a
meeting today to decide what to do
and how to make the tieup COM
plete by calling out the remaining
| girls.
