MOBILIZE FOR
MONDAY STRIKE
DEMONSTRATION
Strike Meetings Today
Organize for Huge
Picket Lines
Pleaters Strike Soon
Call Fur Strikes for
Union Conditions
Pleaters Strike Soor

Plans for a mass demonstration
on the picket lines Monday morn
ing were made by the executive
committee of the General Strike
Committee last night. The strike
leaders state that they expect the
demonstration against the sweat
shop and police terrorism will be
larger than last Monday when there
were 5000 pickets out and 230 ar
rests took place.
While the mass of pickets will be
striking dressmakers, sympathetic
workers organizations will send rep
resentatives. Several well known
'1eft wing" artists are planning to
demonstrate their sympathy with
the strikers, including Michael Gold,
playwright and editor of the New
Masses; John Dos Passos, author of
the play "Airways, Inc.,' which
opened last night at the New Play
wrights Theatre; William Gropper
and Hugo Gellert, artists; Robert
Wolf, novelist, and Mary Heaton
Worse, author.
The snow storm interfered with
the activities of the strikers this
morning more effectively than the
wholesale arrests have succeeded in
doing. Ten were arrested.
All dressmakers, particularly those
at work in the shops that have
signed up with the union, are called
by the Dressmakers' Division of the
International Union to a member
ship meeting in Webster Hall, 11th
st. and Third Ave, Monday. The
meeting begins about six o'clock.
With the issuance of general
strike call practically a few days
off, the fuckers, Pleaters and Hem
stitchers' Union, Local Al, affiliated
with the Industrial Needle Workers
Union, is well ON its way to COM
pleting construction of its strike
machinery. Tomorrow afternoon, at
/ o'clock, the Organization Commit
tee of the local will hold meet
ing in Joint Board offices, 131 w.
2Sth st. -
Two fur shops were taken out on
strike today by the Fur Department
of the Needle Trades Workers In
duscrial Union. The workers in the
shops of Albert Reinerman, at 104
West Goth st. and |. N. Blumgar-
den, at 152 West 9th ST., are strik-
ing to force their employers to sign
an agreement with the union, pro-
viding for a 40 hour, 5 day week,
an increase in wage scales, and
recognition of the union.
These strikers are part of the
campaign of the union in prepara-
tion for the general strike to be
called at the beginning of the new
season. During the last week, three
other strikes have been called
against individual employers where
conditions are particularly bad, and
in each case the union succeeded in

1000 WAIT HOURS
TO SHOVEL SNOW
Workers
Get so Cents an Hour
BULLETIN.

Three workers were dead as re-
suit of the snow storm which swept
New York City yesterday. Rail-
roads and steamships were behind
schedule, elevated and surface car
service was slowed up, and hundreds
of working class families, hit sud-
denly by the intense cold, shivered
withot even the meagre preparations
they usually make in their RAM
shackle tenements, for warmth.
One thousand unemployed work
ers, many of them gray haired vet
erans of the industrial scrap heap,
shivered in line yesterday outside
the temporary headquarters of the
City Street Cleaning Department on
11th ST., between University Place
and Broadway, in the vain hope that
when six o'clock arrived they would
be among the lucky gang OF pos
sibly 200 hired to shovel snow from
the city sidewalks.
Rumors of a chance to make a
meager fifty cents an hour drew
crowds of job-hunters early in the
day. At goth st. and Broadway
several hundred left when petty bu-
reaucrats of the Street Cleaning De-
partment intimated that there would

BIG ANTI-HILLMAN
CONFERENCE WILL
BEGIN TOMORROW
Left Wing to Organize
Tailors for Fight

While Sidney Hillman, task-mas-
ter of the mems clothing workers
here and president of the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers Union, is
busily engaged installing his Chi
cago henchman Rissman in control
of the New York Joint Board, the
rank and file are taking steps to
organize for big struggle against
the officials who made company
union out of their once powerful or
ganization.
Despite all the articles written in
the bosses trade journals praising
Hillmari's .sgeneralship,' and in
spite of the intensified discrimina-
tion against and dismissals of all
who protest against the sweat shop
speed-up systems of Hillman, the
workers are going full speed ahead
with choosing shop delegates to the
big conference called by the left
wing for Saturday and Sunday in
Stuyvesant Casino, 142 Second Ave.
This conference already gives evil
dence of being representative of
large majority of the members of
the union. This is seen from the
statements made by the arrange
ments committee who declare that
scores of credentials have been sent
in daily from the mems clothing
shops of New York.
Workers in the trade, victims of
the Hillman policy of the piece work
system, all other sorts of speed-ups,
wage cuts and wholesale discharges,
have at last reached the limit Of
their endurance. They are on the
road to building up movement that
will sweep from control of the in
dustry those who have made a COM
pany union out of the A. c. w.
In addition to the left wing lead
ers in the trade, and the leaders of
the Needle Trades Workers Indus
trial Union, the conference will hear
nationally known leaders of the
militant trade union movement in
the country, Ben Gitlow and William
Y. Foster.

BILL is RUSHED
TO BUILD new
CRUISERS NOW
Get Rid of Filibusters
and Assure Vote in
Day or So
To Start 5 This Year
Kenworthy for More
Battleships
To Start 5 This Year

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-With
the sweeping aside of the filibusters
today in the Senate and limiting of
the debate after 8 p. m. tomorrow,
the navy appropriation bill provid-
ing 100000 for the navy, in
cluding $12,0O0,000 for the imme-
diate construction of the new cruis-
ers, is assured of quick passage.
There was feeble attempt at
filibuster today on the part of
Blaine of Wisconsin on the ground
that the appropriation bill would
authorize the construction of cruis-
ers within the next year instead of
five. A proposal by Senator Swan
son to limit the debate, assuring a
vote before the session was over,
was passed unanimously. Dawes
had over-ruled a point of order to
eliminate from the bill the approp-
ration to initiate construction of
the warships.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.--Every
additional American warship is an
added guarantee for the peace of the
world, Commander j. M. Kenworthy,
laborite member of Parliament, de-
clared in letter to Representative
Britten of the house naval commit
tee today. ~
This foretaste of what the labor
ite imperialist policy will be should
they be elected to power in Great
Britain was inspired by Britten's
statement that the parliamentarians
of both- countries should settle The
differences.
