Shoe Workers Will
Hold Meeting Tonight

Continued from Page One)
Protective Union remained the only
organization in New York with a
great field for work, but the general
office of the Protective Union was
afraid of large membership in New
York because the workers here were
against the reactionary leadership
which is controlled by the Knights of
Columbus.
Encouraged by their success in de-
stroying the American Union the
bosses association started a cam
paign of lockouts against the men,
bership of the Shoe Workers Pro-
tective Union. Instead of helping the
workers, the general office united
with the bosses and expelled District
Council 2 and four locals, taking out
an injunction against them. They
were almost successful in destroying
the organization. However the shoe
workers are successfully organizing
the Associated Shoe and Slipper
Workers of America now.
Gains Strength.
"The felt slipper local which was
the only one to retsin the strength
it had before the expulsion from the
general office, is drawing in new
members and is now stronger than
ever before. One of the main rea-
sons that this local was not destroyed
is because the greatest majority Of
the membership are young worker
who are protecting their organization
and working in eight shops under
control.
"The bosses, seeing that the ladies
shoe manufacturers were nearly sue
cessful in destroying the workers or
ganization, are now preparing then
selves also to destroy the stitch-dow
and slipper workers organizatio,
The workers must be ready and
the job and must prepare now for II
next season.

Sigman's Local Al Aids
Boss to Dismiss Worker

The fragrant manner in which the
interests of the bosses are protected
by the so-called union established to
serve as an opposition to the left
wing Pleaters' and Hemstitchers'
Local Al, is illustrated by a recent
experience Of worker.
Isidore Mailman, employed in the
shop of Landau Bros, 260 w. Beth
St., went to the right wing union Of
ficial B. Greenberg, who is also a
vice-president of the International
Ladies Garment Workers Union, and
complained that he had been dis
charged by the above firm for elm
competency" despite the fact that
he had worked there for several
years. He asked that Greenberg
force the employer to take him back.
Without even pretending to him,
Greenberg told Mailman to look for
another job. He gave his reason the
fact that he doesn't want to get in
bad with the boss who is the chair
man Of the employers association.

DYERS, BOSSES
BOTH RUN STRIKE

End st. and End Ave-, charged with
blocking the sidewalk in front of the
strikers hall at Isl Clinton st.
Although the stoppage involves
some $4,000 people, about 1880 con-
sist of the retail store owners. The
remaining 1900 are bona fide work
ers, who either work in the big clean
ing and dyeing houses or drive deliv-
cry trucks. Great dissatisfaction is
expressed by the workers involved.
They declare that their union officials
are using them as "catspaws" to OBJ
tain advantages for the retail store
owners and the wholesale employers
association, by eliminating the COM
petition of the dollar" stores.
Ignored Workers.
The Allied Council, joint body of
the three unions recently refused to
consider the demands of the legiti-
mate workers that wage and hour de-
mands be put forward. The A. F.
of l.. heads of the Council even went
so far as to expel seven union men,
bers, four of whom were members OF
the executive board for being too in
sistent with these demands.
A peculiar aspect of the stoppage
workers point out, is the fact that for
the first time in the history Of strikes
the employers association is very
eager to make statements to the press
to the effect that the strike is 100 pei
cent effective. The reason for this
is obvious, they say, because it is te
the interest of the cleaning plant
owner that the cleaning and dyeine
houses doing work for the dollar
chain stores be driven from the trade
In fact, the workers add, the agree
ment between the Allied Council anc
the wholesale employers association
forbids the union from signing an in,
dependent agreement with any of the
plants not members of the bosses or
ganization; and that organization re
fuses to take into membership any
firm that reduces its prices.
Workers Demands.
| The bona fide workers demand tha
the. union officials take steps t.
change the agreement so that the!
can organize the independent plants
also, many of whom would settle j.
an organization campaign were car
ried on.
The expelled workers had severa
months previously fought bitterl.
against the "amalgamation" of thu
small business mems "union" will
the other two workers organizations
but Hugh Frayne, A. F. of L. or
ganizer, insisted upon giving them
charter, and incidentally control O

Unemployment Is Profitable.

While thousands of workers and
their families are literally starving in
New York City and in other parts of
the country, the labor officials of
some of the local building trades
unions have been able to enlarge their
traffic in corruption by selling jobs
to the highest bidders, it was charged
yesterday by Patrick McNicholas,
president of Local SO, International
Hold Carriers, Building and Common
Laborers' Union, affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor.
Accuses Gill.
McNicholas charged that John j..
Gill, chairman of the executive board
of the Bricklayers' Union, who is the
ruling power in the United Building
and Common Laborers' Union, is en-
gagged with G. 3. Dioguardi, Michael
J. Griffin and others in holding up
workers for sums as high as $500 for
the privilege of working on jobs over
which Gill and the others have con-
troll. ellis union is dual union.
While this money is nominally paid
to the dual union officials, Nc
Nicholas declared, it is known that
Gill and other officials of the bona
fide labor movement get their rake
off,"
"All these men and many others
are all good supporters of the Tam
many machine in power in this city.
McNicholas has been fighting the
ruling officialdom in his international
for many years.

Holds Empires Fate

Saw what you will, but Aug. q,
1928, finds the civilized world en-
barking on the greatest experiment
it ever undertook, an experiment
which represents an intellectual
revolution and which may well in
clude the fate of empires before it
is completed.
The deal which is embodied in
the Kellogg treaty clashes with
many things we have been taught
to regard as sacred. The man is
a fool who cannot foresee the day
when those things will crystalize
into an excuse for breaking it and
when its defense will call for force.
Because it represents a funda-
mentally different policy than ma
lions have pursued hitherto, be-
cause it is bound to conflict with
national aspirations at some time
in the future, because imperial
istic statesmen will find it stand
ing in their way and because its
first affect will be to balk the
method of growth by conquest
which has played such q part in
the modern world, this treaty will be
fought for if it lives.
