tactics.
At. the present time, after eight
weeks of struggle in the Manville-
Jenckes mill in Bessemer City,
Charlotte, Pineville and Lexington,
the N. T. W. U. is in a stronger DO
sition than ever before, it has the
confidence of the masses of the
workers and its influence is daily
growing. At the mass meetings be-
tween two and three thousand peo-
pie attend every day. Workers in
dilapidated automobiles, from both
North and South Carolina visit the
union headquarters daily by the
dozen, contribute small sums for re-
lief, and join the union before re-
turning to their mills. There are
129 mills in CASTOR County, and in
more than 10 of these the N. T. W.
U. has members.
Present Strategy.
For some time the N. T. w. U.
has concentrated on calling a Sec
ond walkout in the Manville- Jenckes
mill and in spreading the strike to
other mills in Gastonia. Just before
I left Gastonia. few days ago, mill
committee meetings Of union men,
bers had been held in number of
Gastonia mills, and we have now
succeeded in calling out on strike
the Dixon mill, following the dis
charge of some union members. The
strike will probably spread in the
near future to other Gastonia mills.
In the Manville-Jenckes mill it.
self there were in all 2,200 workers
in two shifts. Of these, according
to the admission of Superintendent
Raugh, 1,700 of the original help
are still out. Some of these have
returned to the mountains and few
have obtained work in other mills.
Hundreds are still actively engaged
in the strike. A large number of
strikebreakers have been brought
from all over the South, workers be-
ing present from Texas, Georgia
North and South Carolina, Alabama,

South, and by its consistent fight
ing policy, as opposed to the class
collaboration policy and the open
corruption of the U. T. W.
The N. T. w. U. in Gastonia has
already had four headquarters.
Their first headquarters was de-
stroyed by masked mob few
weeks ago. The second and third
headquarters were taken from them
by the landlord, who refused to re-
new his lease. The fourth head
quarters was built by the strikers
own hands, and is owned by them.
The building of this headquarters,
after so many difficulties encoun-
tered, has once more struck terror
into the mill owners, and has proven
to the workers that in spite of all
difficulties and all opposition, the
union is spreading and growing in
the South.
The textile workers of North Car
DINA, in the present strike, have
once more seen the strikebreaking
role of the U. T. w. After the re-
dictionary unions" desertion of the
workers in 1921, it has done nothing
to better the condition of the work
ers. But after the Gastonia strike
was in full swing, Thomas McMa-
hon, head of the U. T. W., and his
lieutonants declared that they would
organize the workers into their
union. The capitalist press and the
mill owners heralded this announce
ment with great joy in large head
lines.
McMahon's union then made its
strikebreaking attempt and McMa-
hon spent several days in Gastonia
and surrounding territory, shopping
around, sounding out the workers.
He then announced in the press that
he would not enter the Gastonia
field with his union. He made this
announcement because the workers,
in spite of all the help given to the
capitalist press and the mill owners,
declared they would run the U. T.
w. organizers out Of town if they
continued with their strikebreaking
