DAILY AFFAIR
NJ a SIS Demonstration
Urged Saturday

An appeal to all class-conscious
workers of New York to attend the
great concert at the Coney Island
Stadium Saturday night was issued
last night by the Central Executive
Committee of the Workers (Com-
munist) Party. The appeal, which

"Comradesl Fellow Workers!
"The two greatest dailies of our
party, The DAILY WORKER and
the Freiheit, have organized a great
concert and rally to take place at
the Coney Island Stadium on Sat
urday evening, July ID. This con-
cert is more than an ordinary enter
tainment, just as July Ia is more
than an ordinary day.
July Fourteenth is Bastille Day
This day is written with letters of
fire in the history of the great
French Revolution. 1t is the day
when the masses of France, rising
against their feudal oppressors.
took by storm and partly destroyed
the formidable political prison of
their old rulers, the citadel of Bas-
tile. Our comrades of The DAILY
WORKER and the Freiheit did well
to choose this revolutionary day for
their undertaking.
1--WE appeal to every class-con-
scious worker to join the demonstra-
ton. The concert and rally If
planned as a means to secure funds
for our papers. This alone should
he sufficient ground to make it a
success. Our dailies are the great
est weapon of the working class in
all its struggles.

FUR union WAGE
RAISE DRIVE ON
Wkr's in Right Wing
Shops Join Campaign

The first repercussions of the
drive for July wage raises now be-
ing conducted by the Joint Board
Furriers Union, were heard yester-
day when, as a result of the sue
cess the campaign is so far regis
tering, the workers in two shops of
the Associated Fur Manufacturers
went out on strike after their de-
mand for wage increases had been
refused by the bosses.
Despite the fact that the shops
of the Associated all have so-called
agreements with the right wing
Joint Council and do not recognize
the Joint Board, the ability of the
Joint Board to call and win several
shop strikes in other shops caused
the workers here to put up spon-
taneously these demands to their
own bosses. In prosecuting the
drive the Joint Board had thrown
out the slogan to all workers in the
trade to fight their bosses for the
July raises.
The two shops in which the wor-
kers struck are Bloom and Gerber,
144 w. 9th ST., and Brownstein
and Violin, $50 Seventh Ave.
Seven workers. in the former fac
tory and one of the leading MEM
bers of the Joint Board, Irving Pot
ash, were arrested yesterday morn
ing by detectives of the industrial
squad who were called to the bosses
rescue by right wing hireling of
the Joint Council, Sam Weiner.
The events leading up to the ar
rests were related as follows: The
workers of Bloom and Gerber's shop
were telling Potash that they had
decided to send a committee to their
employer, who is a member of the
board of directors of the Associated,
and demand from him a wage raise
for the entire shop. Weiner, a right
wing agent in the factory heard this
and Immediately ran to call up the
police. By this time the workers
had received the bosses reply that
no raise would be granted and were
already picketing the shop, when
the police squad arrived and liter
ally forced them back into the shop.
Those arrested were later hailed
before Magistrate Norris in the
jefferson Market Court. Potash and
another worker who prefers his
name not mentioned, were fined five
dollars each, while the others were
dismissed.
Cheers Up Boss
The workers of the shop of
Brownstein and Violin declared a
strike when they were refused a
wage raise, and declared their de-
termination to picket the place till
the bosses give in.
Later in the day the entire office
force of business agents of the
Joint Council came to Bloom and
Gerber and assured them before the
workers in the shop that they would
not permit the workers to ask for
any more raise or any other i'm
provement in working standards.

JAILS BROTHER
FOR PICKETINC

Henry SAFER, who yesterday de-
clared that he intends to picket the
Truefood Restaurant, owned by his
brother, as demonstration of SYM
pathy to the workers on strike there,
was arrested yesterday while march
ing before the place, together with
the two union pickets usually per-
mitted by the police.
In spite of being previously in
formed of the fact that the police
would permit no more than two
pickets, SAFER nevertheless deter
mined to join the line.
Is Arrested
A huge crowd gathered in the
Times Square section where the res
taurant is situated. 1t watched Sa-
ger as he patrolled the place car
rying large signs denouncing his
brother and calling for a boycott
on the anti-labor place.
Several policemen at first tried
to intimidate SAFER, but he insisted
on his right to picket the place, dis
avowing any direct connections with
the Waters and Mattresses Union.
He nevertheless maintained his own
right to picket in sympathy with the
strikers, police decided to arrest
him.
Pose As Labor's Friends
The strike against this firm, the
members Of which made their money
through the patronage of labor SYM
pathizers, pose as semi-radicals, ac-
cording to Saz RS statement. They
own three restaurants, all of which
are on strike. They are located at
1873 w. 44th St., ITO w. 10th St.,
and 522 Seventh Ave. The strike
is now in the third week.

also for the reason that they repre-
'ent the world rural dAstricts in re-

Thus, in rousing the workers IN

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Interest in
the elimination tournament, from
which it is hoped a worthy success
sor to Gene Tunney may emerge,
was heightened today after the an
nouncement by Tex Richard that
seventy-f1ve first class" heavy
weights would be on hand for trial
Sept. l.
Forty-three heavyweights already
have filed written applications for
places in the tournament, Richard
said. A railroad ticket would
bring enough heavyweights to madi-
son Square Garden to stage a regi-
mental parade" the promoter de-
clared.
The forty-three applicants have
been divided into three classes
Rickard said. Sixteen belong in the
first class, twenty-five in the second
and the remainder are in class three.
Some Of the fighters mentioned
in the first class are Sharkey,
Risko, Heeney. Paolino. Hansen,
Scott Young Stribling, Roberti, Ber-
tozollo, the Italian; Won Porat, Chi
cago; Dorval, Jack Gross and Ar
thur Dekuh.

American Eight Finishes
Three Quarters of Length

KEN MYERS DEFEATED
Australian Single SCuIIer
" Wins Title.
BY FRANK GETTY


SLOTEN, Holland, Aug. TO-
America, represented by the Univer-
sity of California, today won the
eight-oared shell race, classic of
Olympic rowing, from Great Brit
aims Thames Rowing Club. Cali
fornia won by three-quarters of a
length in S minutes 80 seconds.
In the California shell were: Bow,
Marvin Stalder; No. 2, John Brinck;
No. 8, Francis Frederick; No. 4,
William Thompson; No. 5, William
Daily; No. 6, James Workman; No.
7, Hubert Caldwell; stroke, Peter
Donlinj coxswain, Don Blessing.
Both crews started rowing forty
to the minute. The British eight
led by two yards at the 250-meters
mark. California overlook them and
left them at the 500 meters, never
again to be caught. Once the Cali
fornians gained the lead, they set
tied down to thirty-six strokes to
LIlS Ll1IluU6.
After the race the jubilant Amer
lean eight, apparently strong, drew
their shell into the canal. The
British were badly winded, especial
ly Killick, the No. 3, who collapsed
In the boat.
The United States was victorious
also in the double SOULS, where
Charles NIcIlvane and Paul Costello
of the Penn A. G. defeated Joe
Wright and Jack Guest of Canada,
but suffered defeat in the single
SOULS. There Bobby Pearce of
Australia, said by many to be the
greatest oarsnen ever produced, de-
feated Kenneth Meyers, Phila-
delphia fireman.
nj the four oared shells without
coxswain, the United States crew
from the Penn Barge Club lost to
the first Trinity four Of Cambridge
University, Great Britain.
Thus America and the British
Empire broke even in four of the
days finals in which they were the
contestants.
