TRY TO BREAK
OUTLAW STRIKE
Hillmanites Threaten
Thug, Police Terror

The fifty workers from the shop
of Stolofsky and Hyman, who went
out on strike in defiance of orders
to the contrary issued by the Hill
man machine in the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers Union, will be
compelled to face an anti-picketing
terror this morning, if the plans of
Hollander, Hillman henchman, do
rot go astray.
In answer to this probability,
which was openly threatened by the
trade manager" of the Hillman
regime at a shop meeting of the
workers, the fighters in the shop and
the Executive Committee of the Shop
Delegates Conference, organized as
many strike sympathizers as pos
sible for picket demonstration
early this morning.
Would Fire "Lefts."
The strike broke out in this shop
after the plotting of the Hillman of
ficials with the bosses, Matched the
dismissals of two left wingers the
union wanted to get rid of, and two
other workers the boss wanted to
get rid of. When the strike took
place the officials agreed to rein
state three of the workers provided
the fourth, the leading left winger,
be ousted from his job. The work
ers revolted, demanding the rein
statement of all.
Hollander, at the shop meeting,
tried to frighten the workers by de-
claring that he would send "big
committee" (of paid thugs) to allow
anyone that desired to return to
work. 1t was also learned that the
Industrial Squad of the Police De-
partment would be there to lend as
sistance to the Hillman underworld
hirclings.
Open Revolt.
The strike in this shop is the first
open revolt against the administra-
tion of Hillman which has made of
the A. &. w. a company union and
which has destroyed union conditions
in the trade. This was done by a
frank policy of collaboration with
the bosses for the installation of
speed up systems such as Standards
of production and "piece work"
The Executive Committee of the
Shop Delegates Conference is the
action committee of conference of
rank and file shop representatives
which met recently and launched a
movement which has as it's aim the
ousting of the Hillman gang from
control.

SOUlet Union
Celebrates the
Fall OF TSay

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., March 12
A holiday throughout the Soviet
Union today marked the twelfth an
niversary of the overthrow of Gar
Nicholas ii. 1t was on March 12
1917, that Nicholas was forced to
give up his throne by the pressure
Of the rising revolution.
The overthrow of the czar was
followed by the impotent Kerensky
ministry which for period of eight
months tried to create a bourgeois
democracy.
The bourgeoisie were finally
ousted from power for good and the
state was taken over by the Work
ers', Peasants and Soldiers Coun-
ellis led by the Bolsheyiks.
The victorious revolution of No
vember created the Union of So
cialist Soviet Republics, which to-
day extends over one-sixth of the
worlds surface and is the only
workers government in the world.

| JACKSONVILLE, Ill, October IS
DR.. Alexander Meiklejohn, chairman of
the experimental college at the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, enlivened the four
day centennial celebration of Illinois
College yesterday by declaring, in effect,
an educators war on the influence of
material wealth. The address, delivered
before more than 1000 centennial visi-
tors, alumni and students, extolled
| Plato's republic, which would give the
wealthy no authority and the authorities
no wealth.
I'VE are a newly rich people," Prof.
Meiklejohn said, and we are in serious
danger. All agencies of enlightenment
are failing because we are rich. Riches
and education are in conflict with one
another Material wealth blinds men S
eyes. Shall the blind lead the blind?"
Likening America to a rich mans
house containing, besides the rich man,
tutor and son, DR.. Meiklejohn
branded as an evil the rich mans CON
troll over the tutor.
The speaker attacked "the rating
of the United States as the creates
nation because it is the richest and
Great Britain as the next greatest be-
cause it is the next richest" He said
wealth had confused America and de-
Stroyed its sense of values.
