Big Shops Settle, Pay

Tearing forward with powerful
momentum, the organization drive
of the Independent Shoe Workers
Union, is registering greater sue
.cesses than was expected by even the
most hopeful in the workers organi-
cation. Two more large shoe fac
tories in Brooklyn were compelled to
sign with the union, and another

strike tie-up called on the union
lie a ders to "please come and
negotiate"
The Mackay Shoe Company, en-
ploying over 100 on it's crew, when
confronted with an immediate strike
of his entire plant force, signed the
pact a union representative pre-
sented. In addition he was COM
PEELED to restore a 5 per cent wage
reduction imposed on his men about
three months ago.
Three days of fighting with scabs
and hired thugs led the striking
shoe workers at the Breslau Shoe
Company plant to victory. Their
bosses, former officials in the re-
dictionary A. F. of L. shoe union,
now defunct, asked to sign the agree
ment. Here the workers got an in
crease in pay and the contractors
were thrown out of the shop.
Negotiations are going on with
the Refined Shoe Company, after
four days of striking.
Strikes are being conducted
against the Refined Shoe Co., the
Elinor Shoe Co., and the Diana Shoe
Co., the last mentioned being called
on strike yesterday morning. One

PASS BIG BUDGET
BILL IN ASSEMBLY
Bitter Debate Held on
Roosevelt's Plan

ALBANY, Feb. 27.-The assem-
bly, today passed the executive
budget appropriation bill after vot-
ing down amendments proposed by
the democrats which would have re-
stored $2,S75,000 of the sum cut
from Governor Roosevelt's original
estimate.
Before passing the bill, the as
sembly engaged in bitter debate
over the governors plan, stated in
his message, to take over the
handling of certain large sums in
the budget.
Senator Charles. j. Hewitt, chair
man of the Senate Finance Commit
tee, said the governor would have
exclusive spending power of more
than s80,000,000 including approp-
riations for personal service.
"He could put 10000 people on
the payroll at $4,000 year and no
one could find out who they were
or what they did if the comptroller
chose to close his books" Hewitt
argued.
Assemblyman Horace Stone at
tackled the governors message as
"a usurpation and presumptious
message from the man downstairs"

POLICE TERROR
Plots Are Butchers
Favorite Method

HAVANA, Cuba, Feb. 27.-An-
other of those discoveries of plots
against the life of the president and
the republic by which Butcher Ma
chado" periodically removes militant
labor leaders has been "unearthed"
here.
The chief of police announced late
today that he had "unearthed a plot
to. assassinate President Gerardo
Machado and bring about a revolu-
ton in Cuba"
AS usual the announcement from
police headquarters was followed by
the immediate arrest of a number of
workers whom the Cuban govern
ment would rather see behind stone
walls than leading their fellows in
their struggles against local and
American capitalists.
Machado's usual method in these
cases is to call conference with his
police and secret service heads.
Shortly after the conference the an
nouncement of the discovery of the
plot to kill the president is made.
A police drag-net is then spread to
catch every active worker in Ha-
vana and other centers. The victims
are sometimes left for months in
Jail on no stronger charges than
suspicion and the accusations of po-
lice and police spies.
Machado is the man who prom
Used the American capitalists that

tionary leader, by assassination in

rested today on an indictment Sc
cured by Morris Hillquit, leader of
the socialist party, who charged
them with criminal libel. The So
cialist party has again run to the
capitalist courts to attack work
ing class organization.
Hillquit became angry when the
Daily Worker and the Freiheit print
ed articles exposing his participa-
ton in a swindle practiced against
the needle trades workers. i
The action of the leader of the
socialist party in seeking the aid of
the capitalist courts and the Tam

policy which has long been prac-
ticed by this party of the capitalist
class.
In the present dressmakers' strike,
the New Leader, official organ of
the socialist party, is doing every
thing possible to break the strike.
In this strike of the militant Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union,
the socialist party again calls on the
Tammany machine to break the
strike.
The New Leader, the official or

February 9th issue, made a vicious
attack on the International Labor

.14s WORKERS IN
N,Y.STATE KILLED
DURING JAN UARY
No Information About
Number of Dependents

ALBANY, Feb. 27.-One hundred
and forty-nine workers were killed.
during the month of January in the
industries of New York state, ae-
cording to the official report of the
industrial commissioner. In Decem4
Der, 100 workers had been killed,
in industrial accidents. 81
In 81 of the 149 cases no informa-
tior. was available about the number
of people left dependent by the
death of the worker. In the other
SO cases there were 226 dependents,
or for each worker killed in industry
an average of more than two peo-
pie are left without any means of
support.
Most of the fatalities occurred in
the manufacture of metals and metal
goods. The food industries were
second in the number of fatalities,
while the construction group was
third. -
In most cases the accidents were
found to be due to inadequately pro-
tected machinery. In one case a
worker was caught on an unguarded
belt and crushed against the ceiling,
while another fell through an I'M
protected elevator shaft.
Investigation into the causes of
the death of the workers are to be
started in Albany but, as is usually
the case, these will result in white
washing the employers and leaving
the dependents to shift the best
they can for themselves.
