MILL COMMITTEE
Many Meetings Choose
Convention Delegates

KENSINGTON, Pa, Sept. ia
Albert Weisbord's tour for the Ma
tional Textile Mill Committees, in
preparation for the National Con-
vention of textile workers, to be
held September 1928 at Irving
Plaza. New York City, is being con-
tinued very successfully this week
in the textile centers of Pcnnsyl-
vania.
At meeting held Tuesday night,
September II, at the Kensington
Labor Lyceum, Philadelphia, Off
Gals of the United Textile Workers
from the upholstery weavers were
among the workers who attended the
meeting Their attempt to discon-
cert the speaker by would-be pointed
questions and remarks were very
successfully countered and the audi
ence was completely won over to
the idea Of the new textile union.
ct Easton, Pa, Sunday afternoon,
September 9. in Vanderveer Hall,
workers from the silk mills in
Easton, Allentown and Bethlehem,
who ere receiving wage cuts and are
suffering severely from sp.eu-ap
and rart-time employment, ~~ened
eagerly to the message of the Ma
t,onsl Textile Mill Committees. Fiji
teen delegates have been elected to
the convention from this section.
On Sunday evening, September g.,
& rneeting was held in Chester, Pa,
which is big textile center con-
tanning wooden, cotton and artificial
Fix mills. Some of the worst slave
conditions anywhere in the country
are to be found in Chester. That
the workers there are determined to
Struggle for organization and bet
torment Of their conditions was
proved by their attendance at Weis-
bord's meeting as we'll as by the
ten delegates elected from that city.
The tour will be continued this
week in the anthracite region, which
is the most important center for the
siik growing industry in the United
States and where practically every
little mining town has it's silk mill,
employing almost entirely young
girls. The U. T. w. has had an
organizer for more than a year in
this district, yet only small hand
full of the girls have been organized,
and these few are discontinued with
the organization, which neglects
them and attempts no struggle to
improve their conditions. Wages
here are SO and $40 week. The
militant fight which the young girl
workers in the Wilkes-Barre Silk
Mill put up year ago was betrayed
when the U. T. w. took over their
strike and sent them back to work
with no agreement. The Textile
N.ll Committees is holding meetings
on Wednesday evening, September
J2. at Nanticoke, Pa, where Tex
tile Mill Committee has been or
gauized in an important mill; on
Thursday evening, September 10, at
Old Forge, and on Friday evening,
September Ia, at Edwardsville. A
Mg delegation will be assured
through these meetings and through
the other organization work which
is being carried on, making certain
that Pennsylvania will be we'll rep
resented at the convention and that
the rev union will have firm and
broad footing in that state.

League Friday by defeating the
Boston Braves in a double-header,
6 to and to /, while the Cardin-
els were winning from Philadelphia
10 to 6.
Inc games today between the
Giants and Braves marked the
in employers trade journals. This
is understood by strikers to mean
that the sell-out attempt may be
launched at any moment. Textile
Mil Committe strike machinery has
been anticipating this move and are
Tightening their lines.
Although it is not as yet known
whether the Batty gang intend to
Sign a settlement" which recalls
the wage cut, or the one which
Judge Hitch has put forward, strik-
ers intend to fight to the bitter end
so that the reactionary labor takers
and the employers may not rob
them of the gains made thru their
sufferings.
Another New" Plan.
In the meantime the Citizens
Mediation Committee announced that
they have sent brand new "plan"
to the bosses for consideration.
Their spokesman, Arthur Durfee,
would not divulge its contents.
More Evidence.
The New York Daily New Record,
an employers trade journal devoted
to the textile industry, in yester-
days issue carries in its columns a
news story which further justifies
the attitude of the textile strikers
in fighting against the Frieder
speed-up plan and it's proponents,
Batty and the mill owners.
Without naming the source of its
information, the bosses paper new

ing that the workers would produce
far more for less money than if the

higher, with wheat %019c up, oats
unchanged to &c off and provisions &c
decline to rise of 7c.
Some estimates of corn export busi-
ness are as high as 100000 bushels,
but the generally accepted figures
were 650,O00 to 100000 bushels. An
other decided stimulus for a more
friendly feeling as to corn values came
from an official statement that 60 per
cent of all Kansas corn which will be
sold has already been shipped. Mean
while, corn export demand today at
the Gulf of Mexico was much inn
proved and the trading basis was up
about 1c buShel from early yeSter-
day, reaching 614c over Chicago May
Counting sharply, however, at times
against price upturns in the market
trade as a whole was the fact that
low grades of cash corn developed
weakness here the trading basis on
such grades being &c off in cases. There
was a good deal of talk about increaS-
ed consignments from Iowa and it was
said that the country appears to be
consigning corn rather than selling
to arrive. Primary receipts today were
2,215,O00 against 1,046000 bushels,
week ago, and 1,169,000 one year ago..
Contrasting with this was report
that Argentine farmers are scraping
their bins but that corn receipts at
the Argentine seaboard are very small.
Wheat owed it's advance chiefly to
corn and to Paris advices that winter
killing of the French crop has been
extensive Oats trade lacked snap.
Provisions tended downward at first
but recovered owing to the upward
trend of corn and of hogs.

COMMANDMENT AT
WEST POINT IS
FIRM In STAND

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81 09-Najor
General Winans, con11nandant at
West Point, has rejected a proposal
that he confer in New York February
with Rear Admiral Mutton, super
intendent of the naval academy IN
an effort to clear the way for an
army-navy football game next fall.
The military headquarters refusal
to participate in such conference
was announced TONIGHT by Represen-
tative Britten of Illinois, rnenber
of the house navy committee, had
suggested the conference in an effort
to break the deadlock between the
two service schools. ta
Mr.. Fish said he received a tele-
gram from General Winans in which
he took the attitude that there
would be no advantage in the con-
ference"
The New York representative de-
clared that he was preparing all-
other move to bring about recon-
cilliation of the differences between
the two institutions. -
ANNAPOLIS, Md Jan, 81 H9-.
Informed tonight that Major General
E. B. Winans, commandant at West
Point, had respected a proposal for
a conference in New York Feb. | as,
a possible move to settle the army
navy athletic controversy, Rear Adj
miral Louis M Mutton, superintend-
ent of the naval academy. declined
to comment on the matter.
The naval academy head did say,
however, that there had been no
chance in athletic relationship be-
tween the two service schools since
he conferred with the West Point
superintendent in Washington on Jan.
Z, when it was announced that tho
annual alnny-navy football game
would not be played this year.
