E-CENT FARE IN

Tammany Planned to

Tammany city and state officials
were actively planning yesterday to
capitalize the 7-cent fare decision of
the U. S. supreme court, throwing
the whole case back to the state
courts. Tammany will claim this
as victory" for Mayor Walker,
though it is practically certain that
the state courts, at a suitable time
after the election, will see the "re-

URGE RELIEF FOR
TEXTILE STRIKE
WIR 3-Day Tag Drive
Opens Tomorrow

The need for relief for the strik-
ing textile workers becomes more
urgent every day. The four strik-
ers from Gastonia, N. c., who
reached New York yesterday to ap-
peal for the support of the New
York workers, brought message of
working class solidarity that must
be answered at once, a statement of
the Workers International Relief
declared yesterday.
Friday, Saturday and Sunday
will be tag days for the textile strik-
ers. Thousands of workers must
participate as volunteers. Report at
the station nearest your home or
place Of work, obtain a box and get
on the Job" the statement urges.
"The striking textile workers of
the south are appealing for help!
We must answer their cry. The tag
days arranged by the Workers In
ternational Relief, Local New York,
Room 221, 799 Broadway, must be
given the fullest cooperation of all
militant workers!
"All other engagements should be
postponed. Friday, Saturday and
Sunday must be given exclusively
to helping raise funds for the tex
tile strikers. The 5000 workers now
on strike must be fed. The strike
will spread, doubling, possibly treb-
ling our responsibility. Our task is
plain. We must not shrink it! All
out for the tag days! Support the
textile strikers! Help them win
their strike! Volunteer as a col
lector!"

10 Arrests Yesterday
so More Open Shop
Stores Struck

Thirty more non-union fruit and
grocery stores signed up yesterday
with the Retail Grocery, Fruit and
Dairy Clerks Union on the third
day of the general strike, making
IS settlements since the strike be-
gan. Fifty stores hitherto not af-
fected by the strike call were struck
when their workers walked out to
the call of union committee.
10 Arrested.
This picketing work resulted in
the arrest of ten strikers, eight in
Brooklyn and in the Bronx. They
are to be tried in the Coney Island
and 9th District Magistrates Courts
this Saturday.
The reactionary socialist official
dom of the United Hebrew Trades,
a central A. F. of L. body from
which the Clerks Union had split,
are intensifying their strikebreaking
activities in both Brooklyn and the
Bronx.
Posing as a committee from "the
Grocery Clerks Union," carefully
failing to say whether they repre-
sented the small scab union they
maintain or the real union, A. Heller
and Rosenzweig, U. H. T. officials,
duped the Weis Fruit Market,
Bronx, into signing an agreement
with them. 1t was not till after
the clerks employed here had been
ordered by the labor takers to "fork
over" $12 apiece as union entry
fees, that the non-union workers
recognized who the COMMITTEE"
was. By this time the boss had
been won over to the scab union,
and large sign telling of pact
with the A. F. of L. was hung over
the store.
Four Strikers Assaulted.
Four strikers were assaulted by
employers yesterday at the Burland
Fruit Market, Bronx. They are M.
Novick, L. Berger, H. Rubacher and
M. Tauber.

Strikers Tell Tale
of Terrible Slavery

A story of the most intensive eX-
ploitation, II hours work per week
for children in their early teens
wages of Sc to SO per week, was
told to a Daily Worker reporter yes
terday by a delegation of textile
strikers from Gastonia, N. c., who
arrived in New York City yester-
day. Scheduled to speak at meet
ings of workers on conditions in the
South and the necessity for immedi-
ate relief for the strikers, they will
also aid in the Workers Interna-
tional Relief tag day campaign that
starts tomorrow.
Cecil Burger, the youngest of the
delegation is IL years of age, and
has worked in the mills more than
two years as doffer. His wages
were $19 per week, above the aver
age, for a 72-hour week. In addi-
ton, he often had to work on Sun
day. Cecil looks like about ten years
of age. He says that most children
have to begin work in the mills at
a much younger age.
A Third of Workers Are Children.
More than a third of the workers
in the Loray mills are children,
under 16 years of age, according to
the strikers. No attempt is made
to enforce the North Carolina laws
prohibiting the employment of chill
dren under IA. Many begin work in
the mills at the age of from 10 to
IL.

tionary activity, pointed out
militant workers to the police
and had them arrested and
held in $1,000 bail on charges of
felonious assault. These charges
carry with them 10 year Jail terms
if the accused workers are convicted.
A militant Hungarian worker,
Matthew Holzbauer, was nearly ia
tally stabbed, and is now in the hos
pital, two other workers were ter
ribly beaten up and arrested, and
a number of others were also at
tackled by gangsters of the Trotsky-
list renegade group, headed by
Basky.
Latest word from Flower Hos
pital, where Holzbauer is, states
that, although dangerously injured,
he will probably recover. The other
two militant workers beaten and ar
rested, James Lustig and Nicholas
Kiss, were defended in court by the
International Labor Defense, repre-
scented by Joseph Brodsky, and were
released in $1,000 bail. If convicted
of felonious assault, with which they
are charged by the renegades, they
may be sentenced to 10 years in Jail.
At the hospital, Holzbauer said
that Fenyes had stabbed him and
not Kiss or Lustig, as the Trotsky-
lists charged.
Attack Soviet Union.
The meeting, which was attended
by about 20 Trotskyists, was held in
order to continue the vicious attacks
of the Cannon Trotsky group
against the Soviet Union and the
Communist movement. About 10
militant workers protested vigor-
cusly when Louis Basky, one of the
speakers, began his attack upon the
Soviet Union. They were immedi-
ately attacked by he Trotsky gang
sters with knives, and Holzbauer
was badly hurt.
The gangsters then attacked the
other militant workers, who de-
Tended themselves with chairs and
other furnishings of the meeting
room. The injured workers were
taken to the Hungarian Workers
Home, where they were given treat
ment.
Basky Uses Police.
Soon a squad of police appeared
and Basky pointed out the workers
to be arrested. Basky made charges
of felonious assault against James
Lustig. Lucas Basky, Louis father,
made similar charges against Mich
olas Kiss, and Police Detective
Thomas Mcclure against the Trot-
skyist, Edward Fenyes, for stab
bling Holzbauer about the heart
Fenyes was held without bail. No
charges were made by the militant
workers, who refused to have re-
course to capitalist courts.
When the case came up at the E.
Goth st. police station, Lustig and
Kiss were held in court over night,
and in the morning were brought
before Magistrate Flood in the
121st St. and Sylvan Place court.
Bail of 1000 was furnished by the
New York I. L. D., and the trial set
for April IT.

Five hundred workers are on

have gone on strike under the lead
ership of the National Textile Work
ers' Union. At Pineville, N. c., the

answered 100 per cent. In Gas

Albert Weisbord, national secre-
tary of the National Textile Work

workers and received a tremendous
ovation. He went into the entire
program of the textile union, ex-
planned the development of the
South industrially, and told of the
necessity of solidarity of all work
ers regardless of race, color or
creed, on completely equal basis.
In the evening, Weisbord spoke
again. Both meetings were on the

quarters along the tracks of the
