MEXICAN FARM
WORKERS STRIKE
IN CALF OR MA
Pea Pickers Demand
Higher Wages; One
Is Jailed
Worst Exploited Class
Other Workers Refuse
to Scab on Strike

SALINAS, Calf, Oct. 19.-Five
hundred Mexican pea pickers, part
of the worst exploited class in Cali
fornia, have gone out on strike here,
demanding higher wages. The strik-
ers consist of both men and women.
Pea field owners and their agents
among the county and state officials
are already active and have sue
ceeded in arresting Elias Relies,
member of the strike committee, on
charges of disorderly conduct. His
disorderly conduct consisted in do
ing his duty as striker and pick
citing.
The majority of the workers are
Mexicans and the bosses are at
tempting to bring race prejudices to
their aid in breaking the strike.
Their attempts have so far met with
no success, other workers in the dis
trict having refused to scab on the
pea-piclSers. The field owners are
threatening to import strikebreak-
ers from other sections of the west.
Hundreds of bushels of unpicked
peas are hardening in the fields and
there is strong possibility that the
entire crop may be lost if the bosses
do not come to terms with the strik-
ers Immediately.

Thousand to Volunteer

"Red Tag Days today and tomor-
row!"
The intensive two-day drive tc
swell the Communist campaign fund
in District 2 starts this morning and
will continue until late tomorrow
night.
Thousands of class-conscious work
ers will start the day by the use of
Communist collection boxes on their
way to the shop. For two days these
workers will think in terms of money
to boost the election campaign of
the Workers (Communist) Party. At
the shops collections will be taken
up. Lunches of militant workers will
be even scantier than usual. Part of
the lunch allotment will be set aside
for the Red campaign.
On the way from work today, and
at night in fraternal organizations
and in all places where workers con-
gregate the Red campaigners will
be busy with their boxes. All day
tomorrow the intensive drive will be
carried on.
A serious situation exists. 1t is
imperative that the Red campaign
be waged with even greater inten-
sity than has characterized it thus
far. This cannot be done without
sufficient funds. In this emergency
all militant workers must respond
generously.
All week collections for the Com.
munist campaign fund will continue
For the rest of the week the activ.
tiles of Red campaigners will con.
centrate in shops and factories anc
in fraternal organizations and Local
unions. Shop collections will be
made.

Court Determined to
Jail Leaders

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Oct. 19
In two weeks the largest mass
trial of workers ever held in this
country opens in New Bedford. Six
hundred and sixty-two textile work
ers, over six hundred of whom are
members of the militant New Bed
ford Textile Workers Union affil-
lated with the National Textile
Workers Union organized at the
convention held in New York City
September % and 20, will be tried
on 8S8 charges arising out of the
New Bedford and Fall River strikes
broken after heroic resistance to the
savage onslaught of the mill owners
in which mass jailings and police
terror, played a leading role.
Workers Must Rally.
In an interview given to a repre-
sentative of the Daily Worker, Har-
ry Hoffman, Boston counsel for the
International Labor Defense in
charge of the strike cases, en-
phatically stressed the necessity OF
workers and sympathizers rallying
without further delay to the defense
of these militant mill workers, if
they are to be saved from serving
the vicious sentences imposed, and
the right to strike and the right to
picket in the state of Massachusetts,
involved in these cases, is to be up
held.

EXPRESS BOSSES
WILL FIGHT union

The first fruits of the recent be-
trayals of the Express Workers
strike by International president
George NJ Harrison were visible
yesterday when so-called negotia-
tions between officers of the Ameri-
can Railway Express Company and
union officials ended in the expected
maneuver of the scab express COM
pany to avoid union recognition.
This outcome was predicted by the
Daily Worker last week in its ex-
posure of the treacherous role played
by Harrison and local union Off
cials in calling off the strike of the
expressmen against the will of the
membership and without a vote.
Setting up "trick" condition
without which he would refuse to
deal further with the union, L. R.
Gwynn, president of the COM
pany, and known to be one of the
most unscrupulously suave boss Off
cials in the country, yesterday wrote
to Harrison demanding the elimina-
ton of "all reds and radicals" from
among the employees of the COM
pany. Under the plan by which the
company would eliminate at one
stroke all those workers who have
put up fight against their bosses,
Gwyn suggests the appointment of
committee of three, one by the
Chamber of Commerce, one by the
Mediation Board and the third to be
chosen by these two open shoppers,
all of whom would act as an Sim
partial" red inquisition.

WARSAW, Oct. 19.-The LODI
general strike now includes most Of
the municipal workers in the city
and the strike is now spreading to
textile centers beyond the Lodz dis
tricts, with workers in Warsaw ready
to join the walkout.
The trade unions of Bielostok
have proclaimed strike for today,
and the workers of the "Zirardov"
factory have proclaimed. a passive
resistance policy and the factory
owners threaten a lockout.
Demand National Strike.
A number of the Warsaw trade
unions demand that the Trade Union
Central Commission should proclaim
a general strike for all of Poland to
support the textile strikers. The
commission has as yet sent no an
swer, probably in the hope that ar
bitration will end the Lodz strike.
The Polish socialists are doing
their utmost to prevent the procla-
nation of metal workers strike ir
Warsaw.
The general situation in Lodz is
unchanged, except for the fact that
more workers have Joined the strike.
The Vidzev workers are now on
strike. The sick club employees, on
the orders of the trade unions, have
resumed their work as also some
unorganized walters have done, and
the theatre employees and the unem-
ployed engaged in public works have
also resumed work.
The Lodz engineers are also on
strike and demand a 20 per cent
wage increase. Lodz resembles a
state of siege with police every
where. The conflicts which have
taken place have caused excitement

PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 19.- De-
flying the capitalist police terror
which two weeks ago threatened the
safety of anyone who would speak
here in the name of the working
class, Benjamin Gitlow, Communist
candidate for vice-president, yester-
day addressed large audience at
City Hall Plaza and in stirring
words denounced the political parties
of the bosses, the police system, the
Ku Klux Klan, the American Legion
and the labor takers who support
them.
The nationwide agitation which
has been conducted since the threat
ened kidnapping of Gitlow a week
ago resulted in the mayor of Phoe-
nix granting a permit to the Com
munists to hold the meeting at the
very hall for which the city officials
two weeks ago refused to grant the
necessary permission.
-Ase.y-erkers-Support ezuse.--- =
sGitlow, who had been warned two
weeks ago that he would not be per-
mitted to set foot on the soil of Ari-
zona, talked to several hundred
workers, who applauded his speech
and showed that they were with him
and the cause he represents.
Seated on the platform with Git
low, William O'Brien, candidate for
governor, and George Saul of Colo
rado, was Negro worker, Logan,
who is a presidential elector for the
national ticket of the Workers
(Communist) Party.
The presence of a Negro worker
on the platform, as well as the
speech of Gitlow on the Negro ques-
ton, gave the Negro-hating capi-
talists of Arizona to understand that
here is one political party which
comes out for the rights of the
Negro against the discrimination
that have been heaped on them.
Meeting Is Victory.
The holding of the meeting in
Phoenix is victory for the Work
ers (Communist) Party and defeat
for the reactionary organizations.

letarian courage given by the mem
bers of the Party in Arizona and
