Residents of Kensington and East Berlin have voiced their disapproval of a fire department in the town to have headquarters near Berlin street They claim that the taxation necessary to support such project would be unfair. as fire rates in Kensington and East Berlin would not be lowered. This is true, as fire rates. to be lowered, there must have . fire station within two miles of the property and hydrant within 100 feet. With one fire station in the town. very few houses would be in line for lower rates and all would be taxed the same in the water dis trict.
 With the greater part of the town not protected by city water and hy- 6rants. a volunteer department would be of little use save for the he3p that could be gained through the use of chemicals.
 It has been usggested that there be three departments in the town. one each in East Berlin, Kensington and Berlin. This would be the an- swer to the demand for lower rates in the lire insurance but there is no water in East Berlin and in many parth Of Kensington and Berlin there is no city water

Al the rate of S100 an hour. it is not expected that the bill for the year will not be over 41.5oo. and the cost of the new department in the town will amount to at least S1o,000. including the initial cost aad the upkeep.
 A committee is now working on the cost of the two projects and will offer its findings at the special town meeting that will be held July n. Until that time there will be in force q contract with the New Britain fire department at the rate of &100 an hour. This contract will stand as is If the committee finds that the New Britain contract is the more favor- able of the two projects for fire protection in the town.

Bronx Worker Athletic
Club Will Celebrate
Anniversary Tomorrow

An athletic carnival, celebrating
the first anniversary of the Bronx
Workers Athletic Club, will be given
at 1347 Boston Road tomorrow
night.
The club, which includes men,
bership of 100, has practiced sys-
tematically for several weeks, with
the result that members of the ath-
lctic team will be able to present a
varied program of gym work at the
celebration.
Organized to interest young work
ers in workers sports, as opposed to
boss-controlled and boss-inspired
clubs of the A. A. u, the club has
grown steadily, in spite of the many
obstacles which it encountered. Its
active membership participates reg
ularly at workers athletic meets,
and has developed a program which
includes cultural and physical ac-
tivities. Athletic classes are con-
Quoted under the leadership of Abe
Kopit every Tuesday evening and
Sunday afternoon. Workers inter-

Salsberg from the G. E. B. for ex-
posing the treacherous manoeuvres
of Zaritsky. In Boston, the local

AT the 1927 convention, Local 43
was the second largest local of our
international under militant lead
ership. It was clear then, that such
a delegation as was sent by our
local, as well as the other left wing
locals would not be tolerated very
long. Immediately after the conven-
ton, Zaritsky and his lieutenants
pursued policy of terrorism
against Local 43. Not only did Ia
ritsky's administration fail to carry
out the mandate of the last conven-
ton for the formation of a Joint
Board of all the millinery locals in
New York, but he undertook to dis
band Local 43. Under the constitu-
The daily worker., 1929-03-22

ton, the General Executive Board
has no authority to disband local
unless specified charges are pre-
ferred against the local as provided
for in the constitution, and then
only after trial. No charges were
made against us. But when our
membership decided to maintain it's
rights of electing its officers of our
local without interference, the Gen
eral Executive Board sthen decided
to disband our local.
Our membership, however, re-
fused to have their local of 1000 de-
stroyed. The camouflage decision
was too weak to give a mortal blow
to our live end militant local. Our
entire membership rallied around
the banner Of Local 43. Zaritsky
and his clique started vicious at
tack against their union standards
in the shops. They did not stop at

VITA police; at conspiring with the
manufacturers against the members
of our local; at sending up scabs to
shops where our members were on
strike for the maintenance of their
union conditions. They put the soft
pedal upon the enforcement of the
union standard of the operators and
even at making direct concessions to
the bosses in order to induce them
TO send out our members from the
shops. The entire energy of Zarit-
sky's administration was concen-
tratcd to destroy Local 43, to rob
the trimmers of the opportunity of
making living. All OF the activi-
ties of the International were sub
ordinated to the union smashing
campaign. Nothing was done by this
administration to check any of the
evils from which the millinery work.
ers were suffering or to improve any
of their conditions. In order to carry
out their betrayals they have split
the ranks of the millinery workers,
directly giving aid and comfort to
the manufacturers.
1t is clear that all this was done
with purpose. Zaritsky and the en-
tire G. f. b. did everything in their
power to prevent true representa-
tive convention in May 1929. Zarit-
sky embarked upon a policy Of be-
heading and smashing every local

SOCIALISTS TRY
TO SCAB AGAINST
POLISH WORKERS
CommunistsLeadStrike
in Clothing Industry

WARSAW, Poland, March 21.-
Five followers of the Jewish Social
ist" organization, the "Bund," were
! injured when their attempts to go
scabbing against the mems clothing
strikers, met with the resistance of
the pickets. The strike of mems
clothing workers was called by the
left wing union in that industry,
which is under Communist leader
ship.
This is rot the first clash between
the embittered picketing workers
and the members, followers and
thugs of the socialist" bund. Then
the leaders of the bund issued a
public proclamation instructing their
adherents to scab while the other
workers struck against the miser-
able conditions the strikers found
themselves compelled to drag the
strikebreakers out Of the factories.
Unfortunately for the scabs, all
clashes to date generally left them
to come out second best, but many
honest workers have been injured
by the organized thuggery of the
Socialists" who are supported by
Pilsudski's fascist police.
The excuse used by he socialist
party of Poland and by the "bund"
in calling for scabbery, is that due
to the present situation in the coun-
try the strike will be defeated.
Strikers brand this as the hypo-
crisy of degenerates and traitors.
The strihe has every chance for end
ing VIGOROUSLY. The fact that Com
munists are in the lead of the move
ment for better conditions, is the
motivating force behind the 'bund's"
attempt to break the strike, workers
assert.

NEGRO HARDEST
HIT BY FLOODS
Cheated of Relief by
Red Cross

WASHINGTON, March 21.-
Thirty thousand persons have been
driven from their homes in Ala
bama, Georgia and Florida by the
recent floods in the southeast, ac-
cording to reports from the stricken
territory.
In Alabama, alone, according to a
survey, the homeless number $4,000,
There will be no demand for emer-
gency federal funds, as most of the
homeless are Negroes, small tenant
farmers who are never either pro-
tected against floods or saved from
them when they come. They will
return to hunt for their dead and
build their shacks over again and
slave as before.
1t was estimated that S5c0,000
would be required Immediately to
re-establish those white residents
who have been driven out by the
waters.
The toll Of known dead went to 25
today. when Grace Taylor, ., and
her brother, 6, drowned near York,
Ala.
Flood waters of record height
still burst into towns along the
Apalachicola in Florida and the
Lower Flint in Georgia. The Chat
tahoochee also moved southwark,
flooding lowlands. Most of the tri-
state area, however, was rapidly
drying out after heavy rains.
Serum arrived in sufficient guam
titles at Caryville, Fla, to end the
typhoid threat there. More than 500
have been innoculated.
A conference between Red Cross
officials, President Hoover and Sec
retary Of War Good was held today
at the White House, in which it was
decided TO give the entire rehabili-
tation work to the Red Cross. This
is the same organization which in

CAFE WORKERS TO
HOLD A BIG RALLY

A mass meeting will climax the

Workers Union of the Amaigamated
Food Workers has been carrying on
among these restaurant workers
this week. The meeting will be
held next Wednesday evening at
$3.50 o'clock in the Irving Plaza
Hall, 18th st. and Irving Place.
Confident that the sentiment with
which the cafeteria workers received
the circulars and calls OF the union,
showed their ripeness for an organ
national struggle. the unions cam
paign organizers think that the call
ing of the mass meeting is by no
means hasty step to take
The terrific exploitation of these
workers, shaving IL and ID hours a
day for miserable wages, is enough
to have them come out i'll a struggle
against their bosses for the better
"'ent of conditions, if only they are
r~Ntir~ union leadership.
This was the gist of a report de-
.voted Yesterday to the unions ex-
ecutive by Organizer Michael Ober-
meier.
An additional incentive for fight
ing for more endurable standards
for workers in the cafeterias in the
garment district is the fact that the
garment workers will back them up
in the struggle. Their assistance
can prove mighty weapon for the
cafeteria workers, since they are the
patrons of the over 100 large cafe
terias in the district.
In response to a letter to the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union. this left-wing organization
has pledged its unreserved support
of the fight 10 unionize the cafe
terias. Charles Zimmerman, vice
president of the N. T. w. l. u,
stated that "The needle trades work.
ers sympathize thoroughly with the
purpose of the organization drive.
Cur members have already helped
in the distribution of leaflets and
we will continue to give all help
possible to assure the success of the
drive. Needle workers are urged to
talk to the workers in the cafeterias
where they eat, pointing out the ad-
vantages of organization and urg-
ing them to join the union"

resentatives of the rank and file will
disapprove these policies and would
condemn him as a betrayer of the
interests of the workers.
Sisters and Brothers: In spite of
the vicious attempt to destroy our
local, our members have demonstra-
ted undisputed loyalty to our or
ganization. The combined attempts
of Zaritsky and his lieutenants to-
gether with the bosses and the police
to smash our union and break our
union standards have proven an abb
solute failure. They failed because
Of the unequalled resistance on the
part of our members. We can proud
ly say that our local has stood the
acid test. Local 43 speaks in the
name of thousands of organized mil
linery hand workers, and is continu-
ing the struggle to defend the inter-
ests of the workers.
Sisters and Brothers: On the eve
of the convention, we appeal to you,
in the name of the most vital inter-
ests of our membership, which is
also the interests of all the cap and
millinery workers. In your election
of delegates to the convention, you
must remember that the attack
against Local 43, the Boston Cap
Makers, the Chicago Cap Makers and
Local So, is an attack against you
and your interests.
We must continue this struggle
for unity in our own ranks and for
the unity with the new Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union.
which was born out of the struggle
against the betrayals of the official
dom, and against company -unioniza-
ton of the union, and which is at
present fighting for the 40-hour
week and union control in the shops.
You must, therefore, in the elec-
tion of delegates to the convention,
elect representatives who will openly
pledge themselves to fight for the
following demands:
1.-Reinstatement of Local 43 and
all militant workers.
Reorganization of the unorgan-
lied cap and millinery workers.
3.-For the maintenance Of the
