ENTHUSIASM OF
WORKERS SHOWN
IN BRYANT HALL
Lack of Space Forces
Hundreds Outside

Tremendously enthusiastic, thou
sands of workers in the cloak and
dress industry poured Tuesday
night into Bryant Hall, to celebrate
the joyous occasion Of the opening
of additional headquarters by the
left wing union in the heart of the
garment manufacturing industry.
Many hundreds were unable to
obtain entrance into the hall, which
was so overcrowded that it was al
most an impossibility to move. De-
spite this and the heavy atmosphere
of the place, the greatest enthusiasm
was manifested by the assembled
workers over the fact that their
union was once more strong enough
to expand its activities. The spirit
shown by the audience and even by
those hundreds who were compelled
to leave for home because they could
not get in, was such as to convince
the most skeptical that the right
wing scab union Of Sigman was
about to be completely wiped out
of the industry.
The whole front of the hall was
a glazing splash of red because of
the heaped piles of bouquets of
flowers sent in by the workers in
the shops. Delegation after dele
cation chosen for this work by their
shopmates, pushed their way thru
the packed aisles and placed the
flowers on the stage, as a token of
their regard for the left wing union.
All the leaders of the National
Organization Committee were there
at the celebration. Louis Hyman,
chairman of the N. 0. c., Charles
S. Zimmerman, J. Borachovich and
Rose Wortis spoke as did other
leaders of the movement to estab-
hsh a new national cloak and dress
makers union.

BOSTON FURRIERS
SIGN ALL BOSSES
Employers Give In to
Left Wing Union

Continued from Page One
strike of the workers which lasted
only three hours because the strik-
ers completely tied up production.
The agreement with M. Sussman
and Company guarantees to the
workers not only the 40-hour week
and all other union conditions won
as q result of the 1926 strike, but
also removed the supplementary
agreement given to this firm by the
right wing, which gave the firm the
right to employ non-union finishers
at non-union wages at the height of
| the season. In addition to this i'm
portant improvement, the expiration
of the agreement is also changed
from July to September, when the
workers are in a better condition to
deal with the bosses.
The firmness of the local and the
readiness of the workers to fight
also led to the signing of an agree
ment with one of the biggest shops
in Boston, the firm of Stambler and
Chertok. After negotiations and
after a display of firmness on the
part of the workers, this firm signed
the agreement with the local and
with the same representative of the
National Executive Committee. From
all directions, from the bosses and
from the right wing, there was
pressure brought TO bear upon the
firm not to sign the agreement with
the local. Many bosses were wait
ing for the failure of the local with
this firm in order to follow suit and
refuse to sign or to break relations
with the local. The signing of the
agreement with this firm is there
fore considered by all Boston work
ers as significant victory for the
local and for the Provisional Ma
tional Executive Committee that will
soon form a new International
! Union.
At the present time the local is in
stronger condition than it ever
was before. All the agreements
were signed without the defunct in
ternational, although the interna-
tional YVES a partner to the agree
ment before. There is therefore no
longer any trace of the international
hureaucrats in Boston; they are
wiped out.
There is a lively activity in the
Boston local at the present time.
The members are enthusiastic and
actively interested in the union. AL
most all the members of the union
are in good standing, and every fur
worker looks to the New York Joint
BOARD and to the Provisional Com
mittee for guidance and advice.
They look forward to the coming
convention and the formation of the
new International with great enthu-
siasm.
The activity and success of the
furriers and the cloakmakers will
undoubtedly lead to joint organiza-
ton activities and close cooperation
between these two branches of the
needle trades.

fine MILITANT
BUTCHER PICKET
Judge Does Bidding of
Right Wing Officials

The right wing clique in the Jew
ish Butchers Union showed the left
wing workers yesterday who is who
when it comes to getting co-opera-
ton from the Tammany courts.
These high-salaried gentlemen, who
have become frantic because their
union is fast going the way of all
such tools of the bosses, succeeded
in having fine of $40 imposed on
a militant worker for the crime of
peaceful picketing.
The worker, Irving PELHAM, was
arrested on Monday with two fellow
pickets, j. Reissman and H. Tull-
man, while picketing the shop of
Sol Roth, Alb 18th Ave-, Boro Park.
Left wing workers, affiliated with
the new Progressive Poultry and
Butcher Workers Union, had been
tired from this shop and scabs, fur
nished by the right wing crew, put
in their place.
Boss-Right Wing Lawyer.
All three workers, who had also
been arrested last Thursday for pick
citing, were released on $500 bail.
When Pelham came up for hearing
yesterday morning before Magis-
trate Reynolds in Magistrates Court
at q Snyder Ave, Brooklyn, Sam
uel Koner, who acts as attorney for
both the bosses and the right wing
takers. appeared against them.
Koner is partner of Samuel Marke-
witch, notorious underworld lawye,
and chief attorney for the corrupt
sigman-Schlesinger clique in the
Cloakmakers Union.
AS chief witness for the boss
butcher appeared none other than
/. Korn, the S125-a-week car Of the
Jewish Butchers Union, as result
Of whose policy of gangster terror
William Shifrin, militant left wing
worker, is now behind the bars of
o capitalist Jail.
When Jacques Buitenkant, repre-
senting the New York Section OF
the International Labor Defense
which is defending the left wing
butcher workers, protested at this
he was Immediately overruled by
Magistrate Reynolds. The magis-
trate evidently had his mind all
made up for him by the right wing
boss alliance, declaring that Pei
lam's conduct had been disorderly
even before he heard the evidence.
