SCAB CLEANERS
MEETING IN FLOP
AT BRYANT HALL
Strikers at Big Union
Rally Hit Betrayers

Continued from Page One)
Wills and Paul B. David, and by
the old guard scabs in the window
cleaners union.
Samuel Lavit, manager of the
Manhattan Window Cleaning En-
ployers' Protective Association, was
also present. A former leader of the
Machinists' Union. he felt quite at
home among his fellow renegades.
A Contrast.
In striking contrast was the union
meeting n Manhattan Lyceum. For
the first time in years harmony and
real spirit of solidarity prevailed.
Proposals Of the two bosses associa-
tions, offering a small wage increase
but refusing the five-day week, were
unanimously rejected. Palmeri, rene
gade business agent, was removed
by unanimous vote and Peter La
howit appointed in his place.
Palmeri and other scabs--Krat,
Lash, Gordon, Buchwald, etc.--were
unanimously expelled, their union
bonds cancelled and the money
turned over to the organization fund.
Harry Feinstein, union secretary,
Lahowit, new business agent, Peter
Darck and other members, pointed
out the treacherous role played by
the right wing gang and the A. F.
of L.
At the seab Bryant Hall meeting
officers of the company union were
appointed-they didn't bother to
elect them-with the renegade Com
munist, Krat, as secretary, Lash as
special organizer and all the other
tried and trusted strikebreakers
given jobs. They also announced
that they were arranging a settle
ment (sellout) with the bosses, Civ
ing up the five-day week and sign
ing a three-year instead of a two
year agreement.
5000 For Hand Raisers.
This betrayal was approved" at
another company union meeting in
tt evening in the Ukr .lian Ma
tional Home. A sum of $500 was
spent to round UP scabs, Bowery
stiffs and similar "union members"
to raise their hands at the proper
time.
The Window Cleaners Protective
Union, Local 8, in a statement issued
yesterday, points out the fiaseo of
the betrayers' efforts to capture the
union, and calls on those few work.
ers temporarily deluded by the COM
pany union agents to return and
join the union membership in the
fight for the five-day week, in
spreading the strike and building a
powerful building service workers
union. A union meeting will be held
in Manhattan Lyceum this morning.

to merrymaking and in the old days all work was suspended and the people from peasant to aristo- crat joined in the holiday
 Several of the Juneau stores owned by members of the Russian Church, closed early last night and the men with their families spent the evening at the homes of friends where Christmas dinners in elaborate style were served.
 Rev. Kashevaroff expressed the hope that in the coming years the Russian Church will adopt the present calendar and observe all of the Church and other holidays as are recorded on it. Such a change, Rev. Kashevaroff explain ed, would eliminate much confusion and also the double observance of the holidays which now prevails among the Russians in America.

ALASKA TkOLLERS' ASSN. FLIES AMENDMENTS TO t
 INCORPORATION ARTICLES

The Alaska Trollers' Association, with headquarters at Ketchikan, hacS filed amendatory Articles of Incorporation in the office of the Secretary of Alaska, Karl Theile. The association was organized in May, 1926, as fraternal organi- zation,. by Edward Frederickson, Al Johnson, and Hans Tidemann, for period of fifty years.
 The object of this organization is to associate the members to- gether for mutual self help; to promote, regulate and promulgate measures beneficial to the business of commercial trolling for salmon; and to enable members to deal as a collective agency with outside parties in matters affecting the trolling industry.
 Membership in the association is restricted to those actively en- gagged in the business of commer- ciai trolling for salmon. One of the most interesting of the many duties of a member of the Asso- citation is that he must paint the official pennant of the Association in conspicuous place on both the port and starboard sides of his vessel.
 The present board of directors of this non-profiting organization are William L. Paul, Frances l.. Paul, Edward Frederlckson, Mag nus g. Nordstrom, H. c. Hankins, and Eric K. Johnson.
 Those executing the amendatory articles of incorporation are Ed wand Frederickson, agnus J. Nordstrom, H. c. Hankins and Brick Johnson.

RUSSIAN XMAS IS
 BEING OBSERVED

The Russian residents of Juneau are celebrating the holidays of the Russian Christmas Sunday evening was Christmas Eve on the Russian Church calendar and the event was celebrated by serv- ices in the Church with the Rev. A. P Kashevaroff officiating. and yesterday was observed by all the members as a Holy Day; the date of the birth of Christ as it is re- corded on the Julian calendar.
 The Russian Christmas is usual ly observed for three days and a holiday prevails until New Years Day, which comes on January IS of the modern calendar
 Tie reason for the Russ a n Christmas being observed at a date later than the accepted date for this holiday is due to the fact that Pope Gregory VIII, in 1852, chang ed the then used calendar and is sued a decree thereby adopting the form of the present system of time. The Russian Church did not accept the new calendar but continued to use the system known as the Julian calendar and all of the church dates are observed ac- cordingly. By the Julian form all dates are set ahead one day each century which is accounted for by the fact that every hundred years a day is gained. During this, the Twentieth century, all dates are 13 days later by the Julian calendar than the dates as recorded on the adopted form.
 Russian Christmas is observed as a. sacred day and is prepared for by several days of fasting. Af- ter Christmas Day feasts are given and carnical time is enjoyed, and it Is a time old custom of the people to go from house to house exchanging greetings and singing holiday carols. From Christmas until New Years the time is given
