GENERAL ELECTRIC HUGE HELL
HOLE OF Low PAY and SPEED-UP
Especial to The Daily Worker.

SCHENECTADY, N. Vt h e
General Electric is one of the largest
plants in the world. 1t covers Gas
acres of ground and there is a plan
to build on to the plant in the near
future. General Electric employs
$4,000 workers, not counting the
1000 office workers employed
throughout the many departments
of the plant.
These shops are divided into the
following departments, induction
rt9fors, generators for ship prOpul-
sinp, seaceh'ights, high voltage
cables, iiigh-powered turbines, cleo
tcical motors. electric refrigeratOrs,
fouadry works, clay and clay bal-
ing and huge machine shops.
Nearly 50 per cent of the workers,
men and women. are foreign born.
The tendency to hire foreign born
becomes greater all the time. For
merly American workers were used,
but the company feels now that it
is better to hire foreign born be-
cause the work is SO hard and dirty
and the pay so small that the Amer
leans kick and make trouble for
them. Even the Negroes of Schen-
ectady do not want TO work for the
General Electric for the same rea-
sons.
The most poorly paid is the clay

No Pay for Overtime at Burk Leather Co.
(By a Worker Correspondent

PHILADELPHIA-The conditions
at the Burk Bros. leather factory
here are getting worse every day.
The speed-up system is awful.
Work which was done in one week
before is done at present in couple
of days. This means wage-cut-
but the workers are not organized.
The bosses compel the workers to
start one half hour earlier so that
at a. m. their machines are creased
and work can be started. For this
one half hour the workers are not
paid. Shall we keep the bosses
machines oiled on our time or the
bosses time? Again, the bosses
take this advantage because they
know that we are organized.
Men are being laid off, but their
work has to be done by those re-
naming at work. Do the men work.

TWO JUNTAS GIVEN
LEAGUE APPROVAL
Credentials of New Delegates
From Peru and Bolivia
Are Accepted.
By the Associated Press.

GENEVA, September 13.-While other
nations are holding in allegiance their
recognition of the three new revolu-
tionary governments in South America,
the League of Nations has given what
Is tantamount to recognition of two of
those governments.
Credentials of representatives Of the
new administrations in Peru and Bolivia
have been accepted by the Assembly of
the League of Nations, and these repre-
sentatives now are participating in the
Assembly session.
No delegates from the Argentine have
taken any part in the Leagues work
thus far this year. so the Buenos Aires
government has not submitted itself to
the same test.
Delegation Accepted.
The revolutionary government of
Bolivia took over its predecessors dele
CATION to the Assembly, headed by Costa
de Rels. The new government at
La Paz notified the League 1t wished to
continue its cooperation with the
League-and its delegation was accepted
by the Assembly.
The case Of Peru is somewhat differ
emit and more striking. Mariana Cornejo
was spokesman for Peru's former regime
at Geneva, but he was fired" by the
new rulers, along with the entire dele
cation except Jose Maria Barreto, the
delegations former secretary.
Barreto, on instruction from the new
chiefs at Lima, became head OF the
elegation-indeed the delegation itself
and was seated in Cornejo's place in
both the Council and Assembly.
Cornejo came to Geneva week ago
to test the case.

sembly reviewed its past years work
and found the movement for co-opera-
ton in the economic field, launched IL

and no great victories to celebrate.

bordering on economic anarchy, and

need for world peace and prosperity.
