NEGRO WORKERS
IN WILKES-BARRE
TAKE'DAILY Y SUBS
Promise to Get Many
More Readers

Negro workers of Wilkes Barre, in
the heart of the Anthracite, are Civ
ing increasing evidence of their class
consciousness. Ten new subscriptions
to The DAILY WORKER have been
secured among them by Anna Herbst,
special DAILY WORKER agent in the
anthracite region.
"The Negro workers." Comrade
Herbst writes, "are crowded in the
narrowest, dirtiest sections of Wilkes
Barre. The ramshackle houses look
as if they would rot away in front
of you"
Negro Worker Helps.
Here in these wretched novels Com
rade Herbst, who was assisted in her
work by a Negro worker of the Work
ers (Communist) Party, found an I'M
usual eagerness for The DAILY
WORKER. "At last" one Negro
worker said, "a paper that will take
up our struggles and will give US a
fair chance to fight together with the
whites, Chinese and millions of other
workers against our common enemy,
the capitalist"
Others re-echoed this feeling and
asked about Party meetings and the
attitude towards Negroes. The Negro
worker who helped Comrade Herbst
assured them that it was the aim of
the Workers (Communist) Party to
unite workers of all races, colors and
creeds in the common struggle against
the capitalist class. Each of the ten
who subscribed promised to get as
many more readers of The DAILY
WORKER as they could and to attend
Workers Party meetings.
Urge Aid for Agents.
There are many Wilkes Barres in
the United States and in each of them
the Negro workers are among those
that are most viciously exploited. It
is to reach these Negro workers, as
we'll as their white fellow-worker
that ~ special subscription agents
have been sent to various parts of the
country in the new DAILY WORKER
subscription drive. All class-consci-
Gus workers should aid these agents
in every way possible.

CONCERT, DANCE
ON June z TO END
RED CENTER DRIVE
Many Workers Visited
Art Exhibitions

Each section of the Workers Com
munist) Party of District 2 is being
asked to elect a special representative
to the concert and dance to be given
at the Workers Center, 1928 Union
Square, Saturday evening, June 2.
The affair will wind up the drive
for $4,000 to establish the Workers
Center. On this occasion the red, re-
volutionary banner now on display at
the Center will be awarded to the unit
making the highest totals in the drive.
The award will be made by William
W. Weinstone, district organizer of
the Workers Party and secretary of
the board of directors of the center.
Many prominent leaders of the re
volutionary movement will speak at
the concert. Tickets are rs cents and
are on sale at 1928 Union Square.
AS there are seating accommodations
for only about 600 persons, all those
wishing to attend the affair are urged
to purchase their tickets Immediately.
All workers who still have Work
ers Center collection lists in their pos
session are asked to turn them in to
the Center at once together with their
contributions. Pledges should also be
collected Immediately as payment
of $4,000 must be made on the build
ing within few days.
The art exhibition which was held
at the Center for several weeks closed
on Sunday after being visited by
large number of workers. All ener-
gies are now being devoted to raising
the full sum of $4,000 and making
the concert a true celebration of the
acquisition of the building.

VOW TO MAINTAIN
UNION IN S P IT (.
OF OFFICIAL S
Local "a Acts as Scab
Agency for Bosses

Despite police attempts at intimi-
dation, the membership of the Millin-
cry Hand Workers Union, Local 43
Of the Cloth Hat, Cap and Millinery
Workers International, now engaged
in bitter struggle against both the
bosses and the national union Off
Gals, intend to continue attendance on
picket lines at the struck shops until
they capitulate to the demands of
the union and take back the workers
they locked out.
VIII Fight.
This is the sentiment expressed by
the membership of the union in the
market as well as the union office
while they were discussing the whole
sale arrests made for picketing in the
last few days. 1t also answers the
direct threat made by several police
officials, who said that they will deny
the workers legal right to picket.
One of the pickets at the shop of
the Biltmore Hat Company, 648
Broadway, was arrested this morning,
and was brought to trial several hours
later in the Essex Market Court, End
st. and End Ave. The fine of $40
imposed by the judge for "disorderly
conduct" was paid by the union.
Local "a Scabs.
Nine out of the thirty girls arrested
Friday night when they participated
in picket demonstrations at scab
shops, and at the office of Local "a,
also came to trial in the jefferson
Market Court. All but one were dis
missed, 81 fine being imposed on
the last named. Among the nine girls
was one man, arrested by mistake,
who admitted on the stand that he
was especially assigned by the Off
cialdom of Local "a to escort the
scabs, the latter organization was
providing the employer to replace the
girls on strike. He was promptly
dismissed.
The Millinery Union which is al
most completely composed of young
girls, is carrying on a heroic fight to
maintain their union. Their higher
officials had ordered them to disband
when their progressive policies inter
Tered with the bureaucrats.
Right Wing Calls For Police.
A dense police Gordon has been es-
tablished near the offices of the right
wing controlled Local "a. This was
asked for by the right wing chiefs
after several hundred girls demon
strated their protest against the union
wreckers by picketing there for sew
eral hours on Friday.

Made Of Substantial Craft Paper (NOt Tissue)

Equally attractive for morning
wear or for sports, is this little
sleeveless frock shown in Pattern
1850. The unusual yoke treat
ment is an interesting detail.
Quite different, also, is the oddly
pleated skirt section which creates
fulIness in the front of the skirt.
Printed fabrics such as rayon,
broadcloth or linen are smart for
the development OF this frock.
Among the cottons, percales,
piques and ginghams may be had
in delightful floral patterns or
chic geometric designs. A cream
background brightly printed in
red might use large red buttons
on the yoke and q red suede belt.
There Is q large choice in printed
materials this season, all smart
and all pleasing.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
We are two girls of Is and 16,
respectively. We travel eight
miles to a nelghhoring town each
day. While there, we met q gen
tlemans whom we liked very
much. We invited him to our
house. and he came. Three young
men, friends of my uncle, were
visiting us at the time.
The next time he came, there
were some other young men
visiting us. We explained to him
that they were my uncle'S friends,
but he refused to believe us. He
has not visited us since. and
when we meet him he is distant
and cold.
VIII you kindly tell us whether
we should keep OH inviting our
friend to visit as? Do you think
he really likes us, regardless of
the fact that he will rot come
down. We thank you.
