"The charge that sums of money,
carried in mysterious brown sat-
chel and delivered in hotel corridor
to Brophy by Vichestain as bride to
guard against pulling out non-union

About two thousand strikers rallied
to the call issued by the Textile Mill
Committees for a picketing demon
stration yesterday morning before the
gates of the Achushnet, Hathaway
and Potomska mills. Several hundred
workers were concentrated around the
factories of the Wamsutta mills. All
these plants had strenuously denied
any intention to reopen the mills,
hoping by a denia to avoid strikers
demonstrations.
Union Officials Idle.
While the Textile Council officials
refused to take any measures at all
to halt the attempt to open the mills,
the Textile Mill Committees set about
organizing the workers to picket the
plants. The Wamsutta mills mob
ilized their whole staff of petty fore
men, office workers and few seabs
to enter the mills in the morning and
start the hitherto silent looms. The
pickets, however, prevented all but a
few of the superintendents from en-
tering, thus preventing the company
officials from carrying out their
plans. The mill owners believed that
the sound of looms in operation would
make the workers believe that many
have returned to work.
The incident of the fight on the
picket lines, the large numbers turn
ing out to demonstrate, the failure
of the mill owners ruse to start
operations, have resulted in the head
quarters of the Mill Committee to be
overwhelmed with applicants for
membership in the Committees. In
addition to this, the relief station of
the Workers International Relief has
begun to function.

WASHINGTON, (FP) May q
Hearings on the bituminous coal
situation before the senate interstate
commerce committee became a farce
on April 80 when Louis McGrew, edi-
tor of the Pittsburgh Labor World and
self-styled expert on "red propa-
ganda," attacked the Pittsburgh Coal
Co., the left-wing movement among
the United Mine Workers, and the
moderate liberals who listened to a
speech by Senator Wheeler, as alike
serving the ends of Moscow.
Wheeler, who had been questioned
by McGrew to bring out the basis
Of his claim that John Brophy ard
other left wing leaders were getting
money from Melons Pittsburgh Coal
Co., had to laugh when the witness
declared that he had identified 40
Communists on the platform when
Wheeler spoke in Pittsburgh.
Tell ON Each Other.
Don Rose, hardboiled counsel for
the Mellon concern, protested that
MeGrew did not believe his own
charges. McGrew retorted by warn
ing "Don" that within two weeks he,
McGrew, would come back and tell
enough to ''make this ceiling fall
down" concerning Roses record as a
"fixer" for the company. Rose denied
that he had ever fixed a jury.
McGrew had lots of startling SIN
formation" For example, that the
Soviet Government or its hackers
were 'going to spend 100000 in
this country; that they planted 500
agents in the central competitive coal
field a year ago; that w. 2. Foster
was at the head of this organization;
that they wanted to "get'' John L.
Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers; that they planned to set up
a Soviet Republic, through capturing
first the U. M. w. A., and then get
control of steel and other basic in
dustries like they have in England"
CAP Now Knows All.
Wheeler asked, in surprise, about
this Communist power in England.
McGrew informed him that he had
information "from Scotland Yard"
that one-eighth of the population of
England is now Communist. AS
though to clinch this point, McGrew
c5nfided to the committee that he had

zARITSKY PUSHES

ships demand that Zaritsky withdraw
his destructive plans. In their insist-
ence that Local 43 dissolve, and in
the fact that they made this decision
public before the milliners had an
opportunity to voice their opinion at
a membership meeting to be held to-
night, the right wing in control of
the International showed their COM
plete disregard of the wishes of the
1000 women members Of the union.
Over the signature of Zaritsk% a
letter was sent out to all the Local
43 members ordering them to appear
Immediately at the office of the right
wing Local "a and exchange the Local
43 union books for one of the for
mer. In the latter he declared that
the union which cost the women so
much energy and blood to build was
no longer in existence.
The meeting of the women's local is
to be held at 8 p. m. in Bryant Hall,
725 Sixth Ave, near 42nd st. There
the reply given to their committee of
is by the general executive board is
to be voted on.
Progressives' Proposals
The committee of Local 43 at the
hearing before the general executive
board scored the fake amalgamation
scheme of the right wing, declaring
! bat their locals membership always
were and are in favor of real ANAL
gamation. Their proposals to effect
true amalgamation were completely
disregarded by the Zaritsky majority
on the board. They proposed that the
following steps be taken for a demo-
cratic amalgamation: /. That the ex-
ecutive boards of the two locals be
merged first; g joint meeting Of
both to work out plans for a general
election; 3. meeting to be called of
the membership for approval; A. gen
esal democratic elections for the lead
efship of the amalgamation union.
These were refused. The establish
ment of a Joint Board of all three
millinery unions in New York, unani-
mously voted for at the last member
ship meeting of Local 43 was also
turned down by the right wing.
This action of the reactionary
clicque in control of the union, marks
the second attack against progressive
or militant leadership in the cap and
millinery workers organization. Zarit-
sky recently removed the leader of the
Chicago capmakers' strike because he
was conducting too militant a strug-
gle against the enslaving piece work
system, which Zaritsky favors "for
the good Of the industry"
