Gold Released.

Sam Gold, member of the Joint
Board Furriers' Union, was released
yesterday morning after having
served more than five months of his
six-months prison term in the New
York State Penitentiary on framed
up assault charges.
He was met at the New York end
Of the greensboro Bridge by a COM
ntittee of Joint Board members OF
the union and his wife and child
They Immediately went to the office
of the Joint Board where other
workers greeted him. Gold stated
that the term he served will in nc
way deter him from continuing his
activities in the fight against the
employers and the right wing who
are trying to destroy the union. The
only thing that marred this occasion
Gold said, is the knowledge that Sam
Kurland, another fur worker, is still
in prison under a vicious sentence OF
five years in Sing Sing.

Open Forum.

An open forum called by the right
wing "Joint Council" and held yes
terday afternoon in the headquarters
of the A. F. of L. company union,
nearly ended in a general free-for-
all fight, as a result of the "dem-
ocratic" procedure of the clique in
control. Charles Stetsky, who is
leading fight against some of the
other right wing members of the
Joint Council, declared himself as
chairman of the forum. He also in
sisted that the discussion confine it
self to Overtime" and insurance
fund" The protest that followed
was due to the declaration that dis
cussion on both topics was useless
as long as there is no union. Several
attempts were made to shut off the
discussion which always ranged
about the question of one union, and
was even participated in by some
of the right wing functionaries.
These right wingers declared they
were weary of the chaotic non-union
conditions in the industry and de-
manded an end to the fight.
