An eleven-hour session of the Ma

Union Educational League Satur-
day hammered out the main prin
ciples and much Of the detail of an
intensive offensive, all along the
line, against the wage cut and speed
up campaign of the bosses, which
all the board members see loom

wave already started.

statement for publication, pointing
The analysis of the situation made
by William Z, Foster, general sec
retary of the T, U. u. L., in his
report to the board is that the
key to successful activity of the or
ganization in the present period is
recognition Of the increasing indus
tlial crisis. He told of widespread
and growing unemployment particu
larly in such important industries as
steel and automobiles. 1t is prac-
tically certain that this will be fol-
lowed by general wage cutting-ol
by speed-up, stretch out, and worse
conditions that will have the effect
OF wage cutting. The employers
will make all conditions worse, any
way, seeking to save their profits
and to take advantage of the un-
employment.

The whole wage cutting process
means more rehabilitation of the

HILLQUIT-THOMAS

Leaders Fight on Plans

Sharp differences in the Socialist
party leadership became public Sat-
urday at the Rand School forum,
when Morris Hillquit, National
Chairman of the Socialist party,
and Norman Thomas, candidate for
mayor of New York in the past cleo
ton, clashed over the proposal, made
By Thomas, to call a conference of
reactionary labor" leaders and
middle class intellectuals who sup
ported the socialist" municipal
ticket.
Hillquit declared that while the
socialist party is not Limited to the
class interests of labor in program

UPHOLD FIGHT
FOR 5 DAY week
AF'L Bosses Can't Fool
Window Strikers

Staunchly upholding the demand
for the five-day 40-hour week, the
new rank and file settlement COM
mittee of Local 8, Building Service
Employees l. u, at conference
Saturday with representatives of
the Manhattan Window Cleaners
Protective Association, refused to
give up this basic demand of the
1000 window cleaners on strike
since Oct 16.
The conferene was held at the Of
flee of the State Department of
Labor, 11S E. 28th st. The presence
of Department of Labor mediators
and of Harry Wills, vice-president,
and Paul David, secretary of the
A. F. of L. international union
failed to intimidate the committee
led by Harry Feinstein, secretary of
Local s, into compromising any de-
mands.
The two A. F. of L. rat-boys, who
came to sell out the strike, were
compelled to retreat by the militancy
shown by the strikers at meeting
Friday. But they are hanging
around, secretly negotiating with
their pals, the bosses, and waiting
for an opportune moment to put
over their betrayal work.
The bosses association refused
categorically to grant the five-day
week, but made a phoney offer that
if two large open-shop firms would
grant this demand, they would do
likewise. The association also re-
fused the demand for a $3.50 in
crease in the minimum wage, and
offered instead So increase.
Today the strikers will vote on the
bosses association proposals at n
meeting in Manhattan Lyceum, 66
f. Fourth st. There is little doubt
that they will refuse overwhelm-
ingly to give up the five-day week
demand.

WASHINGTON, Nov. H.
Three conferences of business ex-
ecutives' with Hoover will be held
this week, according to an official
announcement this afternoon. On
Tuesday, a conference of railroad
executives will be held at the
White House, and on Wednesday
Hoover will have a meeting with
the Secretary of Commerce, and
leading manufacturers and bank
ers. For Thursday a conference
has been called of representatives
of wealthy farmers and manufac-
turers or agricultural products to-
gether with Secretary of Agric;.l-
ture Hyde, Chairman Legge of the
Federal Farm Board and President
Hover. Another conference with
officials Of the American Fedora
ton of Labor is being arranged.
The series of conferences an
nounced today will be held instead
of the one conference on Thursday
as previously stated. The incIu-
sion of special conference with
A. F. of l.. leaders is especially
significant as an indication of
coming wage-cuts "by agreement"
Hoover is planning TO rely upon
the A. F. of l.. officials TO bring
the workers in line for acceptance
of drastic wage-cuts and more in
tensive exploitation.

DICCERS STRIKE
AFL Bosses Call More
Meetings Instead

One thousand five hundred sub
way workers met yesterday to take
strike vote at Teutonic Hall, 1853
Third Ave, but A. F. of L. officials
promised them instead another
mass meeting next Sunday"
Some 600 timbermen, drillers and
laborers at the Bronx-Grand Con-
curse extension of the subway line
walked out Wednesday against
state-encouraged scab wages and
conditions. The spirit of the rank
and-file and the meeting-Negroes,
whites of all nationalities - ex-
pressed a genuine desire to join
them. The expression was choked
by union leaders, whose message
ever since the strike began has been
the message of "strike when we're
rady-tomorrow."
The tomorrow which never comes
was the subject of biting criticism
from the diggers yesterday.
"Are you men on other Concourse
jobs ready to come out when we call
you?" James Lynch, of Local 63 of
the International Subway, Tunnel
and Compressed Air Workers Union
involved in the strikes asked.
"Sure we're ready" There was no
doubt about the reply.
"But when are you going to call
US out?" asked a digger from the
back of the hall The query was
eagerly passed around, but the ques-
toner was discreetly kept off the
/ floor.
No Strike Vote.
Instead, the meeting heard stories
of the greatest battle you men are
facing in your lives we'll strike
