Bakers Defeat Move

wards and their agents in the
union, Pollack and Yellard, The
T. U. U. L. had previously pointed
out to the bakers that despite their
cleft" phrases" that Pollack and
Yelland would betray the workers
to the A. F. of L. and the Forwards
gang. At a meeting of Section 3
Friday they brought an agent of
the United Hebrew Trades and
Shafer, labor" editor of the For
wards, to the meeting in an effort
to get the workers to go back I'M
der control of the A. F. of L. takers,
with a promise" of membership
meeting next June. The proposal
was overwhelmingly defeated by the
rank and file workers. The T. U.
U: L. calls upon the workers to re-
move, GUST these agents of the
bosses, from their midst, and to
take control of the rank and file
committee.
For months, Local so of the A. F.
of L. Bakers Union has been openly
betraying the workers, and several
months ago, at Webster Hall,
dozens Of left wing and rank and
file workers were brutally beaten up
for exposing the treacherous policy
of the union officials. Since that
time the union bureaucrats and the
United Hebrew Trades have prac-
tically wiped out all union condi-
tons and have sold out everything
the workers have gained. Workers
slave for II to IA hours day, and
the officials have a monopoly on
jobs, and many of the bakers are
unable to find employment. The
spirit of unemployment has been
brewing, especially in Section 8,
which held its own elections, and
elected a rank and file committee of
SO. Section decided to enforce
union conditions.
Not daring to openly oppose the
workers, Pollack and Yelland have
been pretending to support the rank
ard file committee, and at the same
time have been endeavoring to sell
out the workers to bosses md the
A. F. of L. officials.

If you don't like army officers,

Seven" by Frank j. Collins, now
running at the Republic Theatre.
The "seven" are six lieutenants and
captain of the U. S. air service,
and one of them is killed in each
of seven Episodes" which take the
place of acts and scenes.
This is another of those disillu-
sionment plays of the World War.
1t seems that war is fine and dandy
for the milliohaires and dollar
year men, the desk riding generals
of the staff, and even such officers
as the Colonel Bayne of the play,
George Lessey) who boasts, be-
tween sips of cognac, that he COM
mands these pilots, and does their
thinking for them, but has never
been up in any god damned plane
and hopes he never will be-"
War, according to reliable Stats
tics, was something else again for
some 100000 privates, sons Of
workers and farmers, who were
blown to pieces in more or less in
describable manner in the front line
trenches. But nobody writes plays
at $685. a ticket (face value) for
them. In this war, though, real Of
ficers, the lieutenants and captains
of the air service, got killed, at a
sickeningly rapid rate, because of
rotten planes, "crates" that folded
up their wings when turned too
rapidly, and that were inferior to
the German Fokkers anyway.
This shocks the soul of the bour-
geois playwright, and he hastens, in
Journeys End" "The PATROL" and
now in "Seven," to weep over it.
Aside from the slaughter of pros
pective scab herders and bank
cashiers, the play depends on its
sex interest. This is Broadway.

tale Crook Connections

ALBANY, Jan. 13.-Reports that
Police Commissioner Whalen intends
to resign about the first Of February
were again circulated here today,
apparently by Tammany Hall
agents. According to the reports,
Whalen intends to return to some
position with one Of the leading cor
porations or banks Of New York.
On the other hand, the rumors may
be intended to give the impression
that he is making a sacrifice" to
remain in charge of the New York
police force.
Whalen has demonstrated his eff
ficiency to his Wall Street bosses by
frequent use Of the police against
militant strikers, and his latest move
to uniform the taxi drivers and
draft them into becoming an auxil-
iary of the police.

Anti-SOviet Plot
(WireLess bV Inpreco1r.).

(WreteSS by lnpfecoTT.).
BERLIN, Jan. 14.-At Monday
Moons session of the anti-Soviet
counterfeiters trial, Police Inspec-
tor Deuringer gave evidence that
the Munich secret political police
advised and assisted the accused
forger Capt. Weber in anti-Soviet
operations.
Also at Mondays session, the
printshop proprietor Schmidt, testi-
fled that the forgers hired a part of
his workshop, where they worked
twelve hours a day under great
secrecy. Schmidt is not under
charges, because he was supposedly
aware that the forgers were coun-
terfeiting Chervonetz (Soviet paper

The police had confiscated TO-
600 sheets of watermarked paper in
Schmidt's workshop.

The American capitalist press,

the founder of the Nobel peace

revolution in Soviet Georgia where
there are huge oil fields, break this

weaken the central government in
hope this would aid the overthrowal

Both the British oil imperialists,
whom the capitalist press tenderly
leaves unnamed, and the Georgian
white guards, worked with German
nationalist fascists who enjoyed the
aid of the German government.
Tuesdays capitalist papers attempt,
after long silence, to make light of
the whole affair by misinterpreting
the remark of one of the accused
that the British oil men had once
said that he "could not take these
