Two leading national cigar store
chains, whose gaudy signs bedeck i'm
portant street intersections in every
city from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
have bought up at least five-prob-
ably more-big New York candy fac
tories. AS a result wages have been
cut in many instances and working
conditions arc among the worst en-
countered by girls seeking jobs.
The merger wave which has swept
other industries is now marking the
candy industry. Profits from the
labor of poorly-paid cigarette work
ers of Winston Salem, N. G. and
other tobacco centers are being used
to buy out independent manufacturers
of sweets and bring another industry,
soon to be in the half billion dollar
class, under the wing of big finance.

of one of these factories. "They are
very expensive and we can't afford
to put them in all at once"
Caught between the quantity pro-
duction of the big chain concerns and
the few quality producers of high
priced candies are the smaller firms,
being squeezed to the wall through
intense competition. These in-be-
tween candy manufacturers declare
they can't raise wages or improve
conditions; the big manufacturers
don't care to; the. quality shops are
too small to count. And in the mean
time wages cling around $12-15 a

of the working class? No miracle at
all, but the burning loyalty, the al
most boundless sacrifice, with which
the thousands of exploited American
workers whose cause the Worker
has defended have responded to the
urgent needs of their press. 1t is the
contributions of the individual Amer
lean workers and their organizations
which have made possible a DAILY
WORKER fighting as valiantly for
the rights of the workers today as
when the bosses began their attack
the hour when the sDaily" was
founded.
What Ruthenberg Wrote.
"An American daily working class
newspaper can only be kept alive to
voice the ideals and program of the
revolutionary movement thru the will
ingness of those workers who are
committed to those ideals and that
program coming to it's aid each year
thru contributions to its sustaining
fund" This was the judgement of
Charles E. Ruthenberg, founder of
the Workers (Communist) Party and
militant American labor leader, IN
September 1925. The struggle has
progressed, the battlefront has been
vastly widened and extended. The
need for The DAILY WORKER has
grown more urgent, therefore the
bosses are prepared to kill it. They
are prepared to direct such an attack
against it as never before in its his
tory in final effort to strangle it
before it is too strong for them ever
again to crush.
Rally to the defense of The DAILY
WORKER. Save the militant Ameri-
can labor press for the battles ahead.

Sentiment For Progressives.


ELEPHANT, Pa, March 25.-At
n meeting held at the Labor Temple
last night of local 1872, UNIV "A,
the local grievance committee re-
ported the proceedings OF the Cen
aral Grievance Committee OF Hudson
Coal Company at it's last meeting,
mentioning the resolution OF Walter
Harris, adopted by the General
Grievance Committee, endorsing the
special convention of April 10th. In
the body of that resolution, the local
committee reported, Harris had at
tackled the Save-the-Union Commit
tee.
Andrew Dubow of local 1872 there
upon took the floor and condemned
Walter Harris for his attack on the
-the-Union Committee. Dubow
said, in part:
Harris, Job Seeker.
II always thought Harris was a
good, honest union man, but now, be-
cause of his attack on the Saye-the-
Union Committee, see he is nothing
more than an office seeker and the
same kind of a faker as we now have
in office"
Stanley Dziengelewski then took
the floor and spoke for some time on
behalf of the National Bonita-M Mole
ski-Mendola Defense Committee and
the necessity for defense funds.
Brother Dubow moved that a creden-
tial be given Brother DziengelewsKi,
signed by the officers of the local,
authorizing him to solicit defense
funds. The motion was passed with
out a dissenting vote. Brother
Dziengelewsh selected Frank Bonita,
brother of Sam Bonita, and John
Skochan as committee to collect
funds from the members of that local
on pay day. Brothers Bonita and
Skochan were empowered to select
others to help in the collection work.

to Stop Ohio Miners

WILKES-BARRE, Pa, March 25.-
Support for the Save-the-U Union pro-
gram for the coal miners and the
certain victory of that program was
seen here as the result of resolution
passed last night by the General
Mine Board representing the Shenan-
doah and vicinity mine locals.
After hot battle, the members of
the board adopted motion to hold a
large mass meeting Wednesday in
Shenandoah at which the miners will
hear the presentation of the programs
of both the Save-the-Union Commit
tee and the International Board. The
program of the progressives will be
upheld by Mike Demchak, formerly a
Brookwood Labor College student and
the International Board program will
be given by William Peck.
Enthusiasm For Progressives.
Demchak was given enthusiastic
support by the delegates present. The
miners here are aroused over the
events which have taken place during
the past few weeks. Sentiment is
high for fighting policy and for the
complete removal of the Lewis
Golden henchmen from the union in
District 9.
The action by the mine board is
received by the progressives as a
great victory. The delegates at last
nights meeting showed plainly by
their action in voting for the mass
meeting their condemnation of the
breakup of the Save-the- Union meet
ing last Sunday by the Golden sup
porters assisted by the police under
Chief Burgess Cook.
