KLEIN SPIES EXPOSED
BY YOUNG COMMUNISTS

Five young women workers, en-
ployes of Klein's Department Store,
Union Square and 18th ST., were
unmasked as stool pigeons for their
employer following their attempt to
gain entrance into the Young Work
ers (Communist) League which has
been conducting organization activ-
tiles within the store.
At the same time, it was learned
that the girls are employed as
house detectives for the open shop,
slave factory. They sought to join
the League, it was learned, in order
to prevent unionization of the store.
The stool pigeons are Bessie
Blitz, Freida Schwartz, Evelyn
Schafer, Isabel Rosenfeld and Lii
lion Brown.
This store, which claims to cater
to the needs of the 'poorer classes
at cheapest prices" exploits its
young workers in a most brutal
fashion. The average wage for the
beginner is $12 week. The high
est wage is SIC.
Workers Respond.
These conditions have created a
great deal of discomfort. When the
Working Youth Conference, in con-
junction with the Young Workers
lCommunist) League, began te-issue
leaflets and raise demands, the
young workers responded excellent
ly to the call to be organized. Let
ters were sent in, young workers
made visits to the offices, and some
joined the Young Workers (Commu-
nist) League.
Later on, due to the efforts OF
young workers themselves, the five
spies were discovered. Two of them
even tried to join the Young Work.

MCMAHON AIDS
TEXTILE SPEEDUP
Departs to Help Batty
in Sell-Out

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Sept.
27.-Thomas F. Mcmahon, president
of the United Textile Workers
Union, yesterday hoped into the
field to lend sorely needed aid to his
local chiefs, who are straining every
resource to sell out the strike as it
completes its oath week.
As>was predicted, the resctionary
Textile Council officialdom made
the expected gesture of tur ing
down the manufacturers' offer to
recall five per cent of the ten per
cent wage-cut that precipitated the
strike, but followed up this deter
mined stand" with the astounding
announcement from Mcmahon that
the strikers insist on obtaining the
Frieder Plan, a vicious speed-up
system.
The strategy the mill owners
have been using in their efforts tc
end the paralyzing tieup was tc
make it appear that they are very
reluctant to give the workers the
energy-sapping speed-up system as
q concession.
Altho the officials of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor Textile
Council have publicly endorsed the
Frieder speed-up plan, the contin.
uous propaganda for it in the press
has been an utter failure is so fan
as the attitude of the workers to-
ward it is concerned. This attitud,

Z draws near, the date set for the
provocative demonstration of the
Austrian fascist organization, the
Home Defense Corps, 1000 rifles
from the Kaiserebersdorf arsenal
have been secretly distributed to
the fascist forces, who seemed to
have gained the full cooperation of
Chancellor Seipel and the social

demonstration is to take place.

by Major NPabst, the murderer of
Karl Llebknecht and Anna Luxem-
burg and participant in the Ratenow

The conference was secret. but it is
very probable that the Home De-
fense is ready to negotiate with the
ial-democrats concerning the Oc-
tober 7 demonstrations.
Signs indicate that the police in
tend to arrest the Communist lead
ers before the demonstration.
Commander Steidle, in an inter-
view, stated that intellectual means
to prevent the demonstrations were
useless and that he had resolved on
effectual means. "If the Ccmmu-
nists fire the first shot," he said,
"the Home Defense will deal with

Although an official communique
from the Lower Austrian govern

on, even airplanes being provided.

HITS CONDITIONS
AT SoSS MFG. co.
Worker Urges All to
Attend Youth Meet
(By a Worker Correspondent,

(By Worker Correspondent
We, the workers of Soss Manu-
featuring Co., are the worst ex-
plotted, working under the most un-
sanitary conditions, working 10 to
ID hours a day and under the
vicious speed-up system, which
means more profit for the bosses
and less wages for IT'S slaves.
The leaflet which was distributed
by the Young Workers (Commu-
nist) League has certainly hit the
nail on the head, when it published
the miserable conditions in the Soss
Manufacturing Co.. and most of all
when it put up the demand for a
minimum wage of $25, for an eight
hour working day and hour for
lunch.
These demands can only be re-
allied when we, the members of
Soss Manufacturing Co., organize
ourselves politically and industrially..
Young and adult workers, let's elect
delegates to the Working Youth
Conference and learn how we can
organize ourselves.
The Working Youth Conference
will be held tomorrow and Sunday
at the Labor Temple, East 14th St.

To Expose Fake Treaty

The danger of another i'm
perialist war for the redivision
of the worlds markets among
the robber capitalist countries
will be stressed by Robert Min
or, editor of the Daily Worker
and Communist candidate for U. S.
senate from New York at the huge
Communist election campaign rally
to be held at s o'clock tonight at
the Central Opera House, 9th St.
near Third Avenue.
Minor, who has just returned
from an, upstate tour during which
he presented the Communist plat
form of unceasing class struggle
to the workers of a dozen upper
New York industrial centers, will
expose the fake Kellogg peace"
treaty, which serves but to cloak
the feverish war preparations of all
the imperialist powers for another
world war. He will cite the secret
treaty between England and France
as an illustration of capitalist di-
plomatic hypocrisy, and will point
out to the thousands Of workers
gathered to hear the platform of
their class that on only one point
are all capitalist governments united
that of suppression of all attempts
at militant organization among
workers in their own countries and
united imperialist front against
the Soviet Union, the first workers
and farmers government.
To Expose Boss Candidates.
The rally tonight will be turned
into a demonstration not only of
protest against the anti-labor roles
of the other political parties of the
country, but one against the whole
capitalist system under which work
ers are crushed and enslaved. The
meeting is expected to be the largest
of it's kind ever held in this city.
All of the speakers at tonight S
demonstration are candidates on the
Workers (Communist) Party on its
state or local ticket. Besides Min

mist candidate for governor of New

can"
The representative of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars was
assisted by an attorney. Ste
phens stated the case for the
Workers (Communist) Party.
At the hearing before Secre-
tary of State Marsh, the attor-
ney for the objectors, stated
that the Communist ticket was
disqualified for a place on the
ballot on the ground that a
sufficient number of legally
registered voters had not
signed the roster of the Workers
/ (Communist) Party convention at
which the Communist ticket was

Punctures Petition.
Stephens raised the point that the
objection as to legal sufficiency of
4 the petition had not been presented
within ten days after the original
filing was made, as required by law
and therefore it could not be con-
sidered. Nevertheless the secretary
of state ruled that he could throw
the Party ticket off the ballot on
receipt of a sworn statement from
the election commissioners of the
county in which the Party nomin-
ating convention was held
Among the charges made against
the Workers (Communist) Party
during the hearing were the fol-
lowing: that William z. Foster,
Communist candidate for the presi-
dency is an anarchist; that to allow
the Communist ticket on the ballot
would be swapping fingers at every
true American and eX-service man;
that the Communists are opposed
to military training in the Civilian
Military Training Camps and in
schools; that Communists call the
Soviet Union the fatherland of all
workers and that the Communists
would overthrow all American
ideals.
Assails Red -Baiters.
Stephens stated that Foster is not
an anarchist but a Communist and
that the Workers (Communist) Par
ty is opposed to the anarchist
theory. He branded the objectors
as bunch of red-baiters, declared

MURDER VERDICT
AS Sewer CRAFT
EVIDENCE CROWS
D'Olier Not a Suicide,
Jury Holds

William L. D'Olier, an i'm
portant witness in the S30,000,-
900 Queens sewer graft trial
now going on, who was found
dead on a lonely road a short
time before he was scheduled
to testify, was murdered, the
Queens County Grand Jury re-
ported late yesterday.
"D'Olier did not die by his
own hand" the presentment
handed in by the grand jury
read.
The first report by the Tam
many controlled police was that
D'Olier had committed suicide.
Graft, concealment, intimidation of
witnesses and finally murder have
been the methods of the Tammany
gang to defeat their exposure.
Graft Deals Exposed.

Sigretto, contractor, to give him a
