COMMITTEES ARE
FORMED IN MANY
SPINNING MILLS
Organizers Tell of Great
Suffering

LOWELL, Mass, (By maiD Pro-
gressive textile workers met in Odd
Fellows hall, 81 Middlesex Street,
here Sunday, April l, and formed a
Textile Mill Committee.
Peter Hagelias and Fred E. Beal,
organizers for the textile mill COM
mittees, were the speakers.
Fellow-worker Hagehas reported
on the progressive textile conference
held in Boston, March 18th, which
was attended by delegates from all
important textile cities in New Eng
land. He spoke extensively on the
rotten conditions the thousands of ex-
plotted textile workers are suffering
under. He described the intolerable
conditions in Fall River where the
cotton workers recently received a
1870 wage cut.
Fellow-worker Beal spoke on the
unions now existing which are in the
control of reactionary officials
naming the two principal organiza-
tions-the United Textile Workers
Union and the American Federation
of Textile Operatives. He said that
for years the progressive textile
workers have tried to amalgamate
these unions together-for one union
of the industry-but without success.
Conference after conference was
called, he said, but the officialdom al
ways blocked official representation.
The United Front Committee was
formed in 1924 for the purpose of
uniting these unions and to organize
the unorganized. That the textile
workers could and can be organized
was proven in Passaic when the pro
gressives, under the banner of the
United Front Committee, organized
10000 workers for the United Textile
Workers in that great historic strike
of 1926"
He explained the new form of or
ganization, the Textile Mill Commit
tees, the outcome of the progressive
textile conference of March 18th in
Boston.
He said that any worker belonging
to another union could join the textile
committees by the showing of their
union card and that these members
would not be compelled to pay dues
since they are already paying high
dues.
There are only about 5000 working
in the textile mills of Lowell, 500
in the Merrimac mill, 500 in a worsted
mill and 1000 in the Pepperell mill.
At least 10000 textile workers are I'M
employed. An unemployed mass meet
ing is to be held on the Lowell com
mon under the auspices of the Textile
Mill Committees, Sunday afternoon,
April 18th.

Brothers, cousins and landsleute

Sometimes the bosses actually

These are just a few facts that
prevail at present in the plumbing

"Bill" Doran, the president of Lo-

spends his time in attacking the
American Association of Plumbers
Helpers, which seeks to organize the
plumbers helpers in order to obtain
better conditions on the jobs. This
would be benefit to the helpers and
to the plumbers.
Bosses are allowed to belong to the
Plumbers Union but the helpers who

of affairs to go on any longer OF
will they remedy this situation? The

HARTFORD, Conn.,, (By MaiD =
I am sending you communication to
print in our b loved DAILY
WORKER.
Some time ago l was present at a
meeting of Local 43 of the United
Brotherhood of Carpenters and Join
ers Of America, at Hartford, Conn
The meeting was opened with Brother
Thomas Russell as chairman, and as
soon as it was under way, the chair
man announced that there was a man
named so and so, who wished to speak
to our meeting if there was no OBJ
lection. There was no objection and
the man was allowed to come in and
speak on a subject that was not worth
spoonful of rotten beans to or
ganized labor.
There is about fifty per cent of the
workers, or more, unorganized in the
building trades here in Hartford. And
at first thought that this speaker
was going to tell US something and
show us way to organize these I'M
organized workers into building
trades unions. But it was not as |
thought.
He began his worthless speech by
telling US with tears in his eyes that
the former president of the Connect
cut Federation of Labor was a good
man and a good fighter for organized
labor and that he passed away and
left his wife and children in misery
because he was not paid enough bv
organized labor for his services. He
did not come here to show us how 10
organize the unorganized, he didn't
say anything about the big unemploy-
ment here in Hartford and all over
the country. He didn't say anything
about the coal strike which is a wear
old or how to organize relief commit
tees Tor the support of the strikers
and for the unemployed workers here
IN Hartford. No, he came for some
thing else! He came to get money for
US to pay the mortgages on the house
OF the former president of the Con-
nectlcut Federation of Labor and to
help his widow whom he left in
poverty as the speaker stated. He

pioneer CAMP
BUILDS FOR 1928
Number Of Tents to Be
Doubled

PHILADELPHIA, April 5. -
Among the campaigns conducted by
the Young Pioneer League of Phila-
delphia the most important is the
building Of the Pioneer Camp.
This camp, organized in the sum-
mer of 1927, was one of the most if
not the most successful camp of it's
kind. One hundred and sixty-eight
children, more than 60 per cent of
whom were children of workers be-
longing to trade unions, were accom-
modated. The rate charged per week
was ST. The food and comforts the
children enjoyed could compare with
that offered in any camp that charges
S18 or $22. Unlike many camps, the
camp closed with a net profit of sew
eral hundred dollars that now consti-
tutes part Of the money that will
be used for improvements and expan-
sion.
Tents to be Doubled.
The plan for this year calls for the
the extent of doubling the number of
tents, expansion Of the dining room
and kitchen, and, what is more i'm
portant, reduction of the camp fee
below 81. This will enable more
workers to send their children for a
summer vacation to working class
children's camp, instead of going thru
the humiliation of applying to char
ity camps as many workers are forced

Daily Oklahoman of March 81. The
story tells itself. The poor workers

driven to steal an old auto tire and
the police killed him.
$4,000 Jobless.
Will say that all wages here are
lower than the american standard"
and there are $4,000 men out of work.
Just think of it! The last census gave
this town about 100000 population
but among this number can be count
ed thousands of floaters who don't
belong here. l guess the police think
they belong in Jail for vagrancy as
they have had the city Jail full all
winter. The police have cleft" thou

as much as two nights. The third
time you show up you go below for
10 days.
The Ford plant has been closed for
little over a year, tho they say it
will open before very long with 800
men. They are hiring about eight or
ten men every morning at low wages
and there are from 1000 to 1000 men
in and around the employment office
wanting work.
Lay-off ANY Old Time.
There are two big packing plants
here and they have fired most of the
good men. The men had big strike
at these two places five years ago
and lost it. Several people were
killed. The two places have been run
ming on the American plan ever since
they won the strike and pay man
by the hour. You are liable to get
fired at ten in the morning, maybe
at II or p. m. They lay you off at
the end of any hour they please and
the low wages keep everybody broke
A lot of the married men are hun
dreds of dollars worse than broke.
At Tulsa, 125 miles northeast of

edge of the lead and zinc field, about
everybody is loafing and that is true
all over the lead and zinc district, the

Mines Shut Down.
Nearly all the mines have shut
down and the unemployed all flock
to the nearest big city, thereby in
creasing the already big army of I'M

There are hundreds, yes, thousands

Music and Acting.

THAT spark which brings about the
display Of human emotions in their
varying range is believed TO be Gagged
within the fragile shell Of a violin or
in the polished tomb Of piano.
That is why music plays such a vital
part In the making and showing OF
motion picture.
The large motion picture studio en-
ploys some 20 musicians to release
latent emotional bombs in the creative
souls of actors. Ten Of these artists
are violinists and the other 10 are
pianiSts. Half the number generally
comes from the Los Angeles Symphony
Orchestra or the Philharmonic.
Actors are said to react to music
Just as a child reacts TO lollypop.
Even the animals used in various pic
lures are claimed to be affected by
tunes. Dogs love the strains of violin
and the cat, the most difficult target

a piano starts playing. The ponderous
elephant has his musical likes and dis
likes also.
II the scenario writer has a scene
calling for the star to weep, something
must enter the stars soul that wounds
her. Tears cannot always be COM
manded to flow by sheer power OF will.
, Only recently has it been discovered
how much all the nerves OF the body
respond in different ways to music
1t was learned. for instance. while
filming scenes for "A Date With a
Duchess" Adolphe Menjou's picture,
that Irving Berlin's THE Song Is

up and literally smile for the cameras.
and that IT'S Long, Long Trail" will
make the same tiger tear at the bars
| and release a thunderous roar. A tiger
was used in many of the scenes.
