TWO MORE u. S.
lines CUT RATE
War to Drive Britain
From Cuba Continues

The only other two American lines
operating passenger ships thru the
winter between New York and Ha-
vana have cut their fares to equal
those of the Ward Line, and thus
take part in the competition backed
by the U. S. shipping board, in
tended to drive British shipping
from this part of the seas.
The shipping board last week mi
tiated war to the death against
British shipping on this run when
it loaned the government steamer
President Roosevelt to the Ward
line, and the latter at once cut its
Havana fare to about $25 below that
of the British-owned Cunard line.
U. S. Challenges
At the time this was done, the
head of the shipping board declared
publicly that this was ian American
run" and that British ships would
not be allowed on it. This is con-
sidered another battle in the gen
eral commercial and economic con-
flict between British and American
Imperialism, and a long step to-
wards military conflict.
The two American lines added to
the struggle are the United Fruit
Co., which runs to Havana weekly
with the steamers Ulua, Toloa and
Pastores, and the Munson line which
runs the Monomar.
The Cunard line had not cut its
fares to meet u. S. competition to-
day, but Sir T. Ashley Sparks
American director of the Cunard
intimated yesterday that it might dc
so soon.

Radio Workers Assn
in Dance at Stuyvesant
Casino This Saturday

When the WIZ Manufacturing
Company attempted to lengthen the
hours of its badly exploited employees,
the workers spontaneously united and
successfully resisted this new en-
croachment by their bosses. This
united group formed the nucleus of
what is now the Radio Workers As
sociation of Greater New York,
which is conducting an intensive or
ganizational drive among the unor-
gained radio workers in this city
and its vicinity.
This new union is launching it's
drive in an industry which has al
ready acquired reputation for pay
ing fabulous profits to the coupon
clippers at its head. This piling
up of gold by the Bosses" said the
organizer of the association yester-
day, "is possible only because of
the severe and continued exploita-
ton of the unorganized factory
workers. In scattered groups they
are defenseless and cannot hope to
fight the million dollar corporations.
AS they are they must accept their
miserable conditions. The Radio
Workers Association holds out to
them the promise of a powerful
union, one that will be able to die
tate demands for more pay, better
conditions"
This Saturday at Stuyvesant
Casino, 9th st. and Second Ave, the
Association will hold a unity social
for all radio workers. There will
be a snappy jazz band, free rattle
for gold watch, and great variety
of entertainment.
