A.F. OF |. SPLITS
CLEANERS union
IN SELL0UT MOVE
Strikers Are Called to
Repudiate Scabs

Simultaneous with the launching
of drive to extend the strike OF
1000 window cleaners by organizing
porters, floor scrubbers and other
building service workers, the corrupt
officialdom of the American Fedora
ton of Labor and the strikebreaking
right wing gang in the Window
Cleaners Protective Union, Local s.,
yesterday officially launched a drive
to split the union and betray the
strike.
AS repeatedly pointed out by the
Daily Worker and the Trade Union
Unity League, these agents of the
bosses were only waiting for an op-
perfume moment to come out in the
open. Yesterday they did so Of
ficially, through a well-known scab,
Rosenblatt, and the business agent
of the union (really bosses agent),
Palmeri. Rosenblatt brought to a
meeting of the strikers in Manhat-
tan Lyceum yesterday letter from
Charles F. Wills and Paul David, the
two A. F. of L. International fat
boys, in which, after making lying
attacks on the militant union lead
ership, the T. U. U. l.. and the Daily
Worker, they announce that not the
rank and file settlement committee,
but William Collins, notorious A. F.
Of L. sellout artist, will settle the
strike. In this letter they complete
ly reversed the stand they pretended
to take at meeting Friday, whose
was pointed out in Satur-
days Daily Worker.
Announces Scab Meet.
After Harry Feinstein, secretary
of the union, as well as many rank
and file workers, had completely
riddled this letter and exposed the
strikebreaking maneuvers of the A.
F. of L. and the right wing clique,
Palmeri arose and announced that
the A. F. of L. was calling "all loyal
workers" to a scab meeting in Bry-
ant Hall today. The purpose of this
meeting, which Palmeri neglected to
state, is to expel all the militants
from the union, to settle the strike
at the bosses terms and to set up a
company union in the traditional A.
F. of L. manner.

To All Party Members:

To All Party Members:
Comrades
The District Bureau, through the
Negro Department of District 2, is
calling a conference of all Negro
and white Party members doing Ne
gro work Saturday, Nov. %, 4 p. M.
sharp, at the Workers Center, 26
Union So.
This conference marks the begin
ming of general drive to increase
the Party membership in our dis
trict and will deal particularly with
the question of attracting more Ne
gro members to our Party. We ex-
pect by means Of this conference,
to exceed the general quota already
given for the district by bringing
in at least five hundred Negroes to
the Party.
Among the many questions to be
discussed at this conference will be
the complete re-orientation of the
district on Negro work. The entire
membership must be made to see
that the Negro work is not some
thing within itself, separate and
apart from the general tasks of the
Party, but must understand that
this work is part of and must be
linked up with all the problems fac
ing the Party, particularly in this
critical period when we have an in
tensification of our fight against ra-
tionalization, the war danger, unem-
ployment, etc.
The Negro workers, together with
the white workers, must be modified
for the revolutionary struggle in the
U S. A, and for the defense of the
Soviet Union. To accomplish this
task, we must give leadership to the
masses in their struggles and carry
on an intensive agitation among
them, pointing out to them that the
Soviet Union is the only country in
the world where workers have
achieved their independence and es-
tablished a workers government,

GEN. PARA ZIVKOVITCH

and to tell you that the government over which I have been called to preside is a government which in- tends to work"
 That was all and ever since he and his colleagues in the royal cabi- net have been working and reform ing. They started by abolishing political parties and recently divid- ed the country into nine new dis tricts, based upon geographical con- ,venience, thus wiping out the old provinces which set Serbs, Croatians. Dalmatians, Slovenes and Monte negrins apart from each other.
 When the reforms started the country was officially called "the kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and .Slovenes. Even this name has been changed and it is now "the kingdom of Jugo- -Slavia."
 The general is fifty years old. He is of medium height, but makes an imposing figure in the uniform of the Royal Guard, which he nearly always wears. He is a master tech nician of cavalry and several times in the world war saved the Serbian army from destruction during it's epic retreat. In 1917 he was made commander of the Royal Guard, re- organized 1t into a division and was right at hand when King Alexander needed strong man to head the dictatorship.
