Brownsville Workers
Imperilled in Fires;
Form Tenant League

The lives of many Negro and
white workers were imperilled last
night in fires which broke out in the
Brownsville section of Brooklyn.
The tenants were driven into the
streets and the entire neighborhood
was threatened with destruction.
Twelve workers were carried to the
streets after they had been over
come by gas and smoke.
This section had already deter
mined to form a local tenants
league as part of a city-wide move
ment Of workers to establish and
control their own leagues. Tenants
from all parts Of Brooklyn will be
invited to attend the first meeting
of the Brownsville League.

of the highest developed and ration
allied industries. "The inhuman
speed-up system makes it necessary
to eliminate workers from the shops
at the carly age of forty-five,"
Simplified machinery and the in
PRODUCTION of the "belt," the call
says, makes it possible to employ
increasing numbers Of women and
young worl;ep: who can be made to
do the same work as men at much
lower wages. Especially in the ac-
cessory parts of the industry youth
and women workers are primarily
employed, at wages that do not
average more than thirty-five cents
en- hour.
Many Negro Workers.
Large numbers of Negro work
ers are employed in the auto indus
try. A report of the Mayors Com
mittee in Detroit states that Of ap-
proximately $4,000 foundry workers
over 10000 are Negroes. They are
usually given mental tasks and paid
g. lower wage. This is done by the
bosses in order to keep the work
ers divided and make it difficult to
organize them into unions"
Pointing out that the auto indus
try can be put on war basis in "a
hours, either for an attack on the
Soviet Union or for world con-
flict for markets among the imper-
ialists themselves, the call says that
the workers must organize to fight
this bosses war.
Workers Resist.
"The wage-cutting and speed-up
system of the bosses has compelled
the workers to fight back. In the
past few years many of our fellow
workers have resisted in series of
departmental strikes, as shown by
the strikes in Oshawa, Canada, De-
tyoit, Flint, Oakland, Cal, and in
many other auto centers. The re-
cent strike of over 1000 workers in
Detroit, led in a militant struggle
by the Auto Workers Union against
a 20 per cent wage cut at Murray
Body is the best expression of the
of the workers against
the bosses attacks.
"The American Federation of La
Dor has thoroughly exposed itself as
The open enemy of the working
class. At it's convention in Detroit
in 1926 it stated that a campaign
would be launched to organize the
auto workers. Instead its only par
ticipation was in helping to break
all efforts to carry on effective Or
ganization and to betray every
strike of the auto workers. This
was demonstrated by the recent
strike in Detroit at the Wood Hy-
draulic and in the Flint and Oshawa
strikes.
Fake "Progressivcness."
Within the A F.. of L., the So
cialists, headed by Music under the
guise of new progressive move
ment' IN the trade unions, are help
ing to betray the workers and do
ing all in their power to hinder the
campaign of organizing the unor-
gained. Often using progressive
slogans in order to deceive the work
ers, these takers have already sue
ceeded in betraying the rayon strik-
ers in Elizabethton, Tenn, the
hosiery strikers in Kenosha, Wis,
and the silk workers strike in Pat
erson, N. ].

unions"
Representation.
The call concludes by urging all
workers in the auto industry to send
delegates to the preliminary confer
ence. The basis of representation
is as follows:
All local unions are entitled to
three delegates; all shop committees
or groups of ten workers are en-
titled to one delegate.

son Market court this morning.
Lawyers for the I. L. G. W. will
appear to defend them, and it is
understood that they will make
strenuous efforts to get them re-
leased on bail. Judging by their
previous efforts in similar situa-
tons, there is no doubt that the
company union attorneys will be
successful.
So expensive have been the gang
sters in the hire of the l. l.. G. W.
and the Expense accounts" of their
officialdam, both high and low, that
be chiefs of the company union
lave decided to float a bond issue
bmetime next fall. Reports of this
campaign are appearing in the
friendly capitalist press, whose re-
porters still gratefully recall the
banquet given them a short time
ago for their services in giving pub
licity to the recent fake stoppage
in the cloak trade. Schlesinger,
Matthew Woll and others of the
same anti-labor stripe spoke at the
banquet, at the conclusion of which
each gentleman of the press" re-
ceived a wrist watch.
How popular this bond issue will
be among the workers can be seen
from the fact that high-priced
gangsters are still sweeping thru
the cloak shops in an effort to force
the workers to pay up back dues
and taxes forced upon them during
the recent stoppagc.
Jacobs Local DenOunces Clique.
A ringing resolution denouncing
the foul attack upon Jack Jacobs
was adopted at the last meeting of
Local 6, Cutters, N.T.W.I., of which
he is a member. The resolution
follows:
1.-THE murderous attack on one of
our members, Brother Jacobs, near
the firm of Schwartz and Salzberg,
1S1 W. 35th St., where he is at
present employed, is but one of the
Repeated gangster attacks organized
by Dubinsky and the clicco of Local
10.
Ignored Threats.
"All the previous threats had no
effect ON the workers of this shop,
and they persistently refused to reg
ister with the company union. Fail
ing in their efforts to force the
workers into submission, the Dublin
sky clique sent band of gangsters
to the shop last Friday, who at
tackled Jacobs with knives and black
jacks, cracking his skull and cutting
open his ear drum.
The Executive Committee of Cut
ter5' Local condemns most vigor-
ou5!y this murderous assault upon
Brother Jacobs, who is one of our
best members. The Executive Com
mittee throws full responsibility for
this act upon the Dubinskys, Schles-
myers and Greenbergs. The cutters
will rot remain passive in the face
of such terroristic acts, but will or
iganize properly to meet this terror.
Build Union!
We call upon the cutters of the
cloak and dress trade not to fear
this gangster rule, and rally around
Local 6. Needle Trades Workers
Industrial Union in order to fight
with greater determination the
agents If the company union and
their gangster methods.
We express deep sympathy with
wife and children and other kin of
Brother Jacobs, and hope that he
will soon recover and again be in
our ranks"

BR|TONS ADMIRE
WALES AS ORATOR
Prince Becomes One of Best
Speakers in Country, Pleas
ing Subjects.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 28.-The Prince
of Wales, who for many years had an
acute dislike for speaking in public,
now has become one of the best orators
in the country, both in the matter of
his discpurses and in the manner Of
his delivering them.
His speech on November 10 at the
dinner to members of 1.-The Most En-
viable Order of the Victoria Cross" to
use his own phrase, was, in particular,
hailed throughout the country as a re-
markedly fine performance; and Eng
lishmen are especially happy to think
that, unlike many of their leading per-
sonalities, the prince is usually the
chief-and often the sole-author of
his own orationS.
COnsuIts With Secretariat.
Naturally he seeks information from
the secretariat on some of the thou
Sand-and-one topics on which he Is
continually called upon to speak, and
welcomes suggestions as to how the
subject may be best approached; but
on majority of occasions on which q
direct, human utterance on a non
technical subject is required, it is the
prince himself who is responsible for
one composition of the speech which
ne delivers.
Even, too. where a technical or local
issue is inVolved-an address to a gath
ering of electricians, medical men,
printers or members of some other pro-
fession. or at the opening of some
local exhibition or agricultural show
the prince does not merely repeat, par
rot-liLa information that has been sup
piled aim by his advisers, but makes
sure that he himself is thoroughly con-
VerSant with at any rate the elements
of whatever subject is in question, and
never fails to impart some wholly in
dividual 'and human touch to his dis
course that is the project of his mind
and his alone.
Individual Methods Cited.
A further illustration of his individual
methods in Speechmaking is given by
the fact that even when reading a
prepared address he will often throw
down his manuscript on the table half
way through an grafton and proceed to
give the rest of it extemporaneously-
practice which, incidentally, causes
certain amount of anguish to news
paper men, who are liable to find that
some important address, as actually de-
livered, differs widely from the advance
copies of the speech that have been
sent them.
