ASK PIECE. WORK
Be MADE LEGAL
Bosses Turn Down Fake
Schlesinger Demands

In reply to the fake "trade de-
mands" issued to the employers
association by Benjamin Schlesin-
ger, leader of the company union in
tie cloak industry, the employers
have replied with a demand that he
legalize the sweat shop system of
piece work. This counter demand
was made public by the Industrial
Council, the bosses organization,
after conference with the scah
union heads at the Hotel Pennsyl-
vania.
In an effort to stem the tide OF
sentiment among the workers fol
1.-THE new Needle Trades Industrial
/ Union launched at the convention
ended a few days ago, Schlesinger
had published hypocritical "peace
plan" and "trade program" In the
trade program he asked of the
bosses a $5 wage raise, in order to
create the illusion that his COM
pany union was working for the
interests of the workers. The
workers received his proposal with
derision.
The bosses, by their action, give
evidence that the scab union is sc
powerless as not even to need the
pretense of concessions. They there
fore call on the right wing to legal
ize piece work and to permit them
to publicly dispense with the 40-hou1
week, which is not being practiced
in any cloak shop.
An interesting report comes
from the "open forum" called by
the right wing company union,. in
Bryant Hall, Thursday afternoon.
Schlesinger and other takers were
to address the meeting. A fairly
good attendance had turned out to
attend the forum and the union
wreckers wanted to display the
size Of the crowd pictorially in
their scab organ, the yellow "For-
ward"
The size of the turnout had sur
prised the right wing. After ex-
cited putting of heads together they
decided to call a photographer.
When the photographer came and
was about to explode the flashlight
powder, nearly every worker in the
hall pulled out of their pockets, the
Daily Worker and the Communist
Jewish Daily Freiheit and covered
their faces with it, completely
spelling the picture taken and the
tempers of the gang on the stage,
who ordered no picture taken.
Meanwhile all the workers began to
walk out, leaving an empty hall.

"SalvatiOnists" Fight
Over "Army" Property

LONDON, Jan. 4.-The factional
fight in the Salvation Army, a vast
organization for bringing religious
dope to workers, continues, with
negotiations being made for the re-
signation of General" Booth, its
present dictator-and custodian of
all the great property it has ac-
cumulated from millions of begging
expeditions from the pennies of the
poor.
For time it appeared as tho the
Army" organizations in each coun-
try might secede, and this may hap
pen yet if General" Booth proves
obdurate.

HEAT TO HOLD GRIP,
BUREAU PREDICTS
Drop in Temperature Ex.
pected Monday-92 High
Reached Yesterday.

The present hot spell will last for two
or three more days, the weather man
predicted today.
The Weather Bureau expects thun-
dershowers late this afternoon or to-
night. which probably will cool the city
for an hour or so. Yesterday high
mark for June of 90 degrees was reach
ed and the mercury is expected to go as
high again today.
Tomorrow may be slightly cooler. but
only by few degrees. The hot spell
will continue, the forecaster said, at
least through Sunday and probably into
Monday, when a drop in the tempera-
ture is expected.
The highest official temperature of
the year was experienced April 8, with
q mark of 81 degrees. On April z, an
oficial high of 90 degrees was registered
and on two previous occasions this year
April and May\ 3l--a temperature
of 80 was reached, equaling the mark
of yesterday
Three cases of heat prostration were
reported yesterday but no person had
been treated at any hospitals today.
Among the victims yesterday was S.
Ozrnanet of 1861 Perry place northeast,
employed al Jne Wnlte House as a
gardener. He was treated at Emer-
gency Hospital by DR.. Leon Gordon and
so serious was his condition that it was
necessary to admit him to the hospital.
He was reported today to be improved.
William Adams. colored. SIS years old,
of 444 G street southwest, was overcome
while laying a sidewalk at Forty-sixth
and Klingle streets. He was taken to
Georgetown University Hospital by
fourteenth precinct police and was dis
missed after receiving medical aid.
The third case which police attribute
to the heat was that of Mhair Yagaz-
rian, A years old, of 3l1 Pennsylvania
avenue, who was sent to Gallinger Hos
pital after he was found wandering
ain1lessly on the street.
