BERLIN, Germany, Oct. 1.
Following the strike Of sixty
thousand German shipyard
workers which is paralyzing
the German ports today, a
walk-out of $4,000 textile
workers at Northumberland
is seen as a certainty within
the next forty-eight hours.
In addition, labor unions
thruout Germany, affecting
the basic and important industries,
are preparing new wage demands
on the basis that increase in liv-
ing costs during the past nine
months has not been equalled by
wage increases.
Ship Workers Strike Complete.
The strike of shipyard workers
was called when an arbitration
board decided in favor of the ship
owners, ruling that the agreement,
which expired yesterday, was to
continue. The shipyard workers
demanded higher wages and when
shipowners insisted on retaining the
present agreement, 10000 workers
walked out, virtually tying up all
German shipbuilding.

Special Cable TO The Daily Worker
VIENNA, Oct. 1.-The police
yesterday issued decree prohibit
ing the parade of the social-demo-
Gratis set for October 7. The social
democratic party committee is de-
lighted at this move for which it
has worked from the beginning in
order to hide its capitulation. The
bourgeois press was informed by the
social-democratic leaders that they
would obey the prohibition.
The workers in the social demo-
cratic party are highly provoked
and indignant and, according to
present indications, will probably
demonstrate without their leaders.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass,
Oct. Following the lead of
the Textile Workers Union, mill
strikers affiliated with unions
of the New Bedford Textile
Council today rejected pro-
posals to end their "a weeks of
struggle by vote showing four
unions for rejection. and three
for acceptance, of the five per
cent ware cut which was the
bosses bribe for the conclusion of
the tie-up. The vote showed a great
drop in the membership of these
unions.
The result of the balloting came
as a terrific surprise to the textile
barons and officials of the Textile
Council who refused to believe, Ap
to the moment when the actual re-
turns were in. that even the men,
bers of their reactionary organiza-
tions would follow the lead of the
New Bedford Textile Workers
Union.
Unions Take Part.
Seven unions participated in the
voting with the proviso that the
majority vote of four unions, for or
against, would be sufficient to swing
the decision either way. A furry
of CONSERVATION among the Textile
Council officials greeted the failure
of this device to end the strike.
Balloting began at ten o'clock this
morning and continued until five in
the afternoon. Tension ran high
among the men as they went to cast
their votes and early canvasses of
strikers outside the polling places
showed a sentiment overwhelmingly
against acceptance of the wage cut.
Out of fifty men interviewed in
one place only two could be found
who favored the cut.
A committee from the New Bed
ford Textile Workers Union at
every polling place distributed leaf
lets urging the members of the re-
dictionary unions to defy the at
tempt of Batty and their officials to
sell out their heroic struggle of
twenty-four weeks and to reject the
Awage slash.
Reply to Batty.
Great excitement was created
among the voting workers by the
official statement of the New Bed
ford Textile Workers Union that
leaders who have no opinions are not
fit to lead strikers and that William
Batty must be repudiated by the
workers. The statement was the
unions reply to Batty's persistent
refusal to express his opinion on the
balloting and assertion that the
strikers must decide the issue for
themselves.
The vote OF the Weavers' Union,
the first to be recorded, showed 462
strikers opposed to the wage slash.
Only 299 favored the cut. Other
unions participating in the ballot
ing, whose individual votes are not
yet available, are the loom-fixers,
warp twisters and carders who
voted solidly against the cut, and
the ring -spinners, flashers and mule
spiners.
Sentence Striker.
y While the strikers were rejecting
the sell-out proposals at the polls,
Judge Millikin, favorite of the mill
owners, sentenced Frank August to
four months in prison. August, who
was beaten unconscious by sergeant
Velho recently, was released on
$1,000 bail.

Doctor Found What is Best
for Thin, Constipated People

AS a family doctor at Monticello,
Illinois, the whole human body, not
any small part of it, was DR.. Cald-
wells practice. More than half his
"calls" we're on women, children
and babies. They are the ones
most often sick. But their illnesses
were usually of a minor nature
colds, fevers, headaches, biliousnesS
and all of them required first a
thorough evacuation. They were
conStipated.
In the scourse of his AZ years
practice Che was graduated from
Rush Medical College back in 1879
he found a good deal of success in
such cases with a prescription of
his own containing simple laxative
herbs with pepsin. In 1892 he de-
cided to use this formula in the
manufacture of a medicine to be
known as DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pep
sin, and in that year his prescrip-
ton was first placed on the mar
ket.
The preparation Immediately had
as great a success in the drug stores
as it previously had in his private
practice. Now, the third generation
is using it. Mothers are giving it
to their children who we're given it
by their mothers. Every second of
the working day someone some
where is going into a drug store to
buy it. Millions of bottles of Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are being
used a year.
It's great success is based on merit,
on repeated buying, on one satisfied
user telling another. There are
thousands of homes in this country
