FOR MAY
1ST CELEBRATION
New York Conference
on April IA

All energies are being made by
the committee in charge of arrange
ments for the coming May Day
celebration to mobilize all forces to
assure its being the greatest demon
stration ever seen in this stronghold
of capitalism.
The first step is to get the larg-
est possible number of workers or
CARNATIONS to send delegates to the
United Front Conference to be held
Sunday, April IA, at Irving Plaza.
New York City. The purpose of
this conference is to make plans for
the mobilization Of the masses of
workers in New York and vicinity
for the demonstration, to prepare
the program and make other ar
engagements necessary.
The May Day meeting will cele-
brate the achievements of labor in
its struggles during the past year.
and TO prepare for participation of
ever larger masses in the sharpen
ing struggles Immediately ahead.
Because of the fact confronting the
working class of ever-growing prep
arations for imperialist war. and
for an attack on the Soviet Union
on the part of the capitalist pow
ers, this May Day celebration will
have the character of demonstra-
ton against the war danger and for
the defense of the first workers and
peasants government.
All organizations are urged to
send at least two delegates TO this
important conference on April IA,
and to contribute generously to the
expenses of the celebration, to make
it huge demonstration such as the
center of the finance-capitalist i'm
perialists has never before seen on

2 FIRED AS SOAP
STRIKE SPREADS
T.U.E.L. Agitation Is
Effective

Walter Taylor and James Lenny,
leading figures in the recent victor
ious strike of the mechanical depart
ment of the Proctor and Gamble
Staten Island soap mandatory,
were fired yesterday for refusal to
scab in the packing department
from which fifty girls had gone out
on strike several days ago. All
signs point to a sympathy walkout
of at least 500 more before the
week closes.
Fire Militant Worker.
Instead of obeying orders and
going to scab in the packing room,
the two workers fired instead OPEN
ly agitated for a general walkout.
Subject to the bosses hatred for
their previous strike activities they
were dismissed on the spot.
Thus during the past two months,
which have been marked by four
departmental strikes, nearly all end
ing in capitulation of the bosses to
the demands of the workers, rs
year old relation of peaceful ex-
ploitation of labor" was ended.
The strike of the girls, the recent
stoppages and the expected general
walkout clearly demonstrates that
an employer policy of company
unionism and employee stock owner
ship, will finally lead to a revolt
against chloroformed exploitation,
even if that policy is intrenched for
rs years.
The Proctor and Gamble Co.. yes
terday issued a statement branded
as sheer hypocrisy" by the striking
workers. The statement says that
differences and difficulties can be
settled thru the Conference Com
mittee" of the workers. No work
ers ever knows who represents them
on this fake conference committee.
The company also asks why should
the workers strike, when During
the past year three and one-half
million dollars was spent to improve
the plant" With bitter humor the
workers pointed out that this money
had been spent in installing speed
up and other efficiency schemes,
which were cause of all the
strikes.
Representatives of the Trade
Union Educational League yester-
day distributed a leaflet calling on
the workers to spread the strike,
build shop committee; and advis-
ing them to put forward the de-
mands, 8-hour day, general wage in
creases, abolition of speed up and
recognition of the shop committee.
