FOR WARD" GUILTY OF
BLOODSHED, IS CHARGE

Deepest hatred is expressed by
the masses of workers in the Jewish
labor movement at the socialist
hierarchy in control of the United
Hebrew Trades and it's organ, the
yellow Jewish Forward, whose pro-
grams against the left wing reached
climax in the flow of blood that
resulted in the death of right
wing follower and the wounding of
another, when they led a squad of
six, armed with knives, against Will
liam Schiffrin, left winger.
Two years of repeated bloody as
saults on left wing workers and their
leaders were perpetrated by under
world thugs hired by the right wing
officialdom with money received
from the Forward, Jewist workers
declared in their discussions of the
case, which is practically the only
topic of conversation. Now that
gang is shouting for the blood of
an honest worker who, single
handed and with his back to build

workers to attend the International

"The Workers (Communist)

part of its revolutionary duty as the
leader of the entire working class
to explain its attitude on the work
ing youth in connection with the
growing war danger and in connec-

"The young workers are one of
the most exploited sections of the
working class. The young workers
are being constantly drawn into in
dustry. At the same time, we find
that the young workers are mostly
unorganized, the wages of the
young workers are low, the young
workers are to be found among the
unskilled workers, and at best, in
the ranks of the semi-skilled This
is due to the development of

MAT WOLL FUMES
AT TEXTILE MEET
Boss Agent Splutters
Hatred for "Reds"

Matthew WolI, professional red
batter and A. F. of L. vice-presi-
dent, unloaded his annual "red hunt
ing" speech to the United Textile
Workers Union convention in the
Great Northern Hotel yesterday. At
the same time he blandly offered
"hope" as the only solution to the
problem before American workers
of being faced with the growing
competition of European factories,
established and enlarged by the tides
of gold pouring into Europe by
American capitalists.
Militant delegates at the conven-
ton. at the conclusion of VOLTS
speech, declared that the acting
president of the National Civic Fed
Grafton had inadvertently confessed
that the Communists have the real
solution for the problems of the
workers which arise under the pres
ent system.
"a social fabric" they said, "that
can bring down upon the heads of
the workers untold suffering through
unemployment caused by invest
ments of capital in foreign factor
les, and which chokes the workers
with their own production, ought to
be destroyed"
Commenting on the boss-agent
Woll's statement that the "Commu-
nists preach philosophy of de-
spair," militant delegates remarked
that, in addition to it being untrue,
it is far preferable to Wolrs policy
of continual betrayal of the work
ers.
Batty Also There.

munists, there was one by w. E. G.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 12.-Cables
of congratulations and international
greetings from miners unions of Bel
gium, Austria, and France were re-
ceived by the National Miners
Union whose sessions have been
held here this week. All of them
express hone and confidence that
the new union means much to in

the old United Mine Workers of
America showed scant concern to
the coal miners unions of other
countries when they were in trouble,
and for this reason European labor
is doubly interested.
Thus the Regional Union of the

that it sis following with the
closest interest the evolution of the
movement in the United
States towards fighting policies, ="
and hopes for full proceedings of
the convention. And the others are
in like spirit: The letter of the
