The Takers Arrive.


The United Textile Workers Union
officials, especially the Music wing,
seeming initiation fees from afar,
sent down an organizer. The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor executive
and President William Green, like
wise seeming a chance to do a little
business, and also feeling the neces-
sity Of keeping an eye His Majesty's
loyal opposition in the U. T. W., sent
down McGrady. Owing to the politi-
cal backwardness of the local patri-
OTIS, and the failure Of Hoffman and
McGrady to explain clearly that they
came as harbingers of permanent
peace in the rayon industry, some
of the less enlightened citizenry ac-
tually staged kidnapping. Hoff-
man and McGrady were gathered up
and taken out Of the city. The fact
that Hoffman is Jewish and Nc
Grady an Irish Catholic probably had
something to do with the case in a
community where the Ku Klux Khan
is by no means a vanished memory.
Green Reassures the Bosses.
The mill workers struck again.
they had no great faith in Hoffman
and McGrady but they figured that
if the mill owners and the business
men were hostile to them that may
be there was some good in them. 1t
was not long before the babbitry
recognized that they had made
grave error. They found that they
had attacked representatives of one
of Americas outstanding institu-
tions-The American Federation of
Labor. This was explained to them
in great detail and with wealth of
patriotic phraseology by William
Green and others at mass meeting
held to welcome back the deported
martyrs. McGrady likewise did his
bit to reassure the businessmen. He
said at this meeting that he came
to Elizabethton to "pacify" the
workers, not to foment strikes.
The babbitry took Hoffman and
McGrady to it's breast. Here were
men of alien stock, it was true, but
men who stood for the same ideals.
With such leadership the workers
would not come under the influence
of bolsheviks as in. Gastonia. There
was balm in Gilead once more. Now
the strikers would 60 back. to work.

That strike may come in week, in
month or in six months. But there
is going to be another strike-more
determined, more conscious, more
bitter and more decisive than the
last.
The rayon mill workers have ad-
vanced faster in practical knowledge
of the class struggle in the last six
weeks that they did in the previous
five years.
They will never be sold out again.
They may be defeated by the COM
bined forces of the companies and
the state and national governments
but no union official can ever sell
them out again.
The workers themselves will see to
that. In the first place, they know
the role of the A. F. of l.. and the
U. T. w. from concrete experience.
In the second place, they will join
the National Textile Workers Union
which fights on the basis of the class
struggle

HIGH COURT Gets
CASE OF BAKERS

JERSEY CITY, June 3.-Waving
down all attempts of the attorney
of the workers to present their side,
Acting Judge Markly, in First Grim
inal Court here today passed up to
the State Court the cases of T. K.
Mueller, organizer of Local 6, Bakers
Union; Peter Green, Rudy Falk and
Gerhard Mark.
Although the strikers had brought
10 witnesses who were ready to tes-
tify in their behalf, the judge ar
bitrarily refused to allow any of
them to speak.
Mueller, now free on $1,000 bail,
is charged with criminal libel" and
conspiracy" in connection with the
strike at Hendel's Pastry Shop, 511
Palisade Ave. The walkout, which
began May 2, was called to demand
union recognition, more sanitary con-
ditions, shorter hours and an in
crease in wages.
Demand Better Conditions.
The strikers have been working
1914 hours day, at wages ranging
from $22 to S36. They demand the
eight-hour day and a minimum wage
of $50.
Mueller is charged with having ar
ranged for the distribution of a cir
cular which exposed unsanitary con-
ditions in the Hendel shop. The
other workers were jailed for picket
ing the place.

800 STRIKE IN

National Miners Union
Leads Walkout

miners were addressed by Pat Too
hey, national secretary-treasurer,
and Tom Rodgers, district president
of the Central Pennsylvania District
National Coal Miners Union. Those
present, numbering more than 100,
voted unanimously for a strike.
With unparalleled efficiency, the
National Miners Union set to work.
A committee went from house to
house all night informing the men
of the decision to strike and mobiliz-
ing for picketing. Early this morn
ing a mass picket line of more than
100 miners was thrown around the
mine. When those miners who had
not yet been informed of the strike
came to work and were informed of
the action, they Immediately Joined
with the picket line. Between 500
and 600 men congregated near the
railway tracks and Pat Toohey
spoke to them from the top of a pile
of railway ties. A vote was taken
and the miners present unanimously
decided to support the strike. A
committee was elected to negotiate
with the coal company.
The superintendent has already
called in the Coal and Iron Police.
One of the biggest shareholders in
the Sonman Shaft Coal Company is
John H. Powell, the owner of the
Boston Braves Baseball Club.
The wage cut proposed by the
company is as follows:
Pick mining reduced from $1.O1 to
So cents per ton; machine mining re-
duced from 81 cents to 80 cents per
ton; Day rate reduced from $500 to
SIS.
The company had previously put
across a wage cut by increasing the
size of the cars without increasing
the rate per car.

The Fighting Mill Workers.

The Fighting Mill Workers.
But the strikers had other ideas.
They wanted more wages. They
wanted union. They were ready to
fight for more control over their
job conditions. They continued the
strike. Hoffman and McGrady did
everything they could think of to
discourage the strike. They told the
workers to stay home. They were
against mass picketing. The work
ers picketed in spite of them. Scabs
were few and far between. The
ranks of the strikers were solid.
The millowners and the business
men began to be impatient. They did
not question the good intentions of
Hoffman and McGrady, but they
wanted results. Business was going
to hell. The mill companies were
spending thousands of dollars daily
paying the state troops and special
deputies on duty at the mills and in
Elizabethton and Johnson City.
The SelI-Out Agreement.
The sell-out was arranged. Anna
Weinstock, one Of the vamp type
Of federal stool-pigeons who are
maintained by the department of
labor to "conciliate" workers into &C.
cepting the terms of the bosses,
came to Elizabethton. She worked
with Hoffman, McGrady, mill Off
cials and others for about two weeks.
President Mothewurf Of the CLAM
stoff company agreed to tone down
his hardboiled attitude in public.
This is all he did agree to. Mean
while the company spies were busy
in the ranks of the strikers.
The problem for Hoffman, Nc
Grady and Weinstock was to put
over the blacklisting of all active
strikers and the establishment Of the
blacklist system as permanent in
stitution in the mills, to put the
strikers back to work without
single concession being made by the
company and at the same time to
make this appear as a victory for
the strikers. At least it must appear
as victory long enough for the
strike to be called off.
This was difficult task. 1t is a
tribute to the skillful stool-pigeonism
of this choice collection of company
agents and government spies that
they were able to put it over. It is

Welded Into PrOletariat.
The mill workers recruited from
the countryside were being welded
into proletariat-a group of work
ers still closely connected with the
farms but workers in industry never
theless. At first the tendency was,
when conditions in the mill could
no longer be borne, to return to the
country. But soon the workers
found out that once worker, always
a worker. They found that once
torn from the soil and swallowed by
modern industry the farmer is no
longer farmer. The whole country
side has changed. The giant mills
have changed it. Only those too
young and those too old to work in
the mills remain on the farms. Like
huge magnet, the mills draw in
the poor population from all direc-
lions.

well. Their 100 per cent American
ism, strengthened by its mixture of
Dixieland patriotism does not pre-
vent in any way their daily worship

The magic phrase in Elizabethton
is "monied men," In the barber
shops and restaurants, on the street
corners, the main topic of conversa-
ton is of "monied men from the
north" In the old days of the boom
cities of the west the talk was of
eastern capital" Here the foun-
tain head of the golden stream is in
the north. Two shabby men will
meet-the type that can always be
found hanging around the courthouse
in small town-and one will say:
81 hear there's some monied men
from the north in. town." In a
moment they are speaking of the
future glories of Elizabethton with
the fervor an evangelist reserves for
the subject of heaven when speaking
to underpaid workers.
"Own Your Home"
Long before the rayon companies
began construction, the real estate
sharks had gobbled up all available
residential sites. Elizabethton is
surrounded by real estate sub-divi-
sions. Gown your own home week"
ceremonies here have almost the
same sanctity as religious rites. But
no one has as yet explained success
fully how workers are to buy homes
out of an average wage of $1,000 per
week. Many, however, are trying
the experiment with an optimism
which brings joy to the realtor sec
ton of the chamber of commerce.
1t was in such an atmosphere that
the strike began-started by girlsA
The local press promptly denounced
these hot-headed young persons but
the rest of the workers, with equal
promptness, struck in sympathy
with them. The workers were with
out experience in organization and
they had no leadership. The whole
weight of the middle class COM
munity was thrown upon the strik-
ers. By lavish promises they were
induced to go back to work.

enthusiastic for the union in spite
Of the many bosses present to spy

Need More Tents.
The strikers in Gastonia are con-
tinuing to enlarge and improve their
tent colony, building floors for the
increased number of tents which are
needed, and which the Workers In
ternational Relief is raising funds
to purchase. Nothing but these tents,
arranged in streets and making
little city of their own, stand be-
tween the evicted strikers and the
weather, which is generally bad at
this time of the year. Donations for
tents for the Gastonia strikers and
their families should be rushed to

Senate Gets the Norris
Resolution Again

idge, 1t apparently was sent in
again partly because of the oppor-
tunity of registering a harmless at
tack on the power trust, many sem
ators having been badly compro-
missed recently by exposure Of their
vote for West and Lenroot, both
power trust appointees. Voting for
the Norris resolution will help their
records among their constituents.
Trust Wants It.
Senator Norris, reporting the res
olution, stated: Muscle Shoals is
one of the causes for the attempt
of the great combinations of power
companies to buy up the editorial
policy of many newspapers for the
purpose of influencing public opin-
ion."
The committees report on the
resolution, however, gives an even
more important reason for pushing
government operation of the Shoals.
The first argument is that it will
manufacture great quantities of nj
trates for explosives in the coming
imperialist war. 1t will, says the
resolution, Improve our national
defense" and the production of
power will be purely incidental.
'1f we produce more power than
is necessary" states the report on
the Norris resolution, at ought to
be subject for congratulation."
