1000 NAMES IN
FOR ,JOBLESS BILL
L an dlord Worrie S
About His Rent

NEW YORK.-The Downtown Un-
employed Council is reported to have
collected over 1000 signatures to the
demands for the Workers Unem-
ployed Insurance Bill to give each
jobless worker s25 week. Over 100
were collected yesterday.
An interesting situation has come
to light. An unemployed worker liv-
ing at 1864 South Boulevard received
a letter from his landlord to take to
the Tammany so-called "City Free
Employment Agency" The letter
says:
1.-THE bearer, Mr.. Turner, has been
a tenant in my house for over a year.
For the past three months he has
been unemployed and unable to pay
his rent His gas and electric light
have ben shut off for the past two
months and his financial condition is
most appalling. Although I am in
earnest need of my rent, I have been
obliged to be lenient In demanding
payment. I will certainly appreciate
any assistance you are able to rem
der him in securing Job so that
he may be able to meet his debts and
exist"
With this letter the worker went
to the agency, and they practically
ignored 1t. He came again and again,
and couldn't get job.

NEEDLE WORKER
JOBLESS RALLY
Mass Meets, Forums,
Fight Evictions

NEW YORK.-Open air meetings
at four places in the dress and fur
markets drew thousands of workers
to hear the speeches of the Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union
speakers on the necessity of organ
izing jobless councils and fighting the
injunctions.
The first regular meeting of the
Dressmakers Unemployed Council
which was organized last Tuesday
will be held Monday at D. m. at
the Spartacus Hall, 301 West goth
st. The dress council will meet
every Monday and Thursday at this
hall and all dressmakers are urged
to come and participate in the dis
cusSion and report on eviction cases
so that the council may take action
to prevent evictions and to put the
furniture back when the landlords
try to have it thrown out.
Dress Strike Forums.
Sunday there will be two open
forums in neighborhoods where nee
die workers reside, on the question
of unemployment and the dress strike
as a means of fighting unemploy-
ment. One will take place in Bath
Beach at the Bath Beach Workers
Club, 48 Bay st. The speaker will
be the chairman of the N. T. w. I.
U. shop delegate council, Com. Good
man. The other will take place in
the Bronx Workers Club, 1872 Bos-
ton Road, at II a. m.
Tomorrow, all unemployed Needle
Trades Workers are invited to at
tend the Winchefsky rs year Jubilee
being held in the Madison Square
Garden. All unemployed workers
will be admitted free of charge on
presentation of their unemployed
council membership book and will
march into the hall in a body. All
unemployed needle workers are asked
to congregate in the outer central
lobby of the Garden at p. m.

JOBLESS REFUSE
ORDER TO MOVE
Brooklyn Cops Face
Determined Resistance

NEW YORK.-The Borough Hall
Unemployed Council yesterday held
a mass meeting at Jay and john
ston Streets in Brooklyn, and a
crowd of about 400 assembled to hear
the speakers. While Chairman Abe
Rubin of the Metal Workers Indus
trial League was speaking, police
came up and tried to get him to stop.
He refused and put up Sam Nesin,
of the october 16 delegation to the
city hall.
Nesin began to speak to an en-
thusiastic crowd and the police came
up and pulled him off the box. They
wanted him to come with them to
the station but he refused to go VOL
unfairly. The crowd had already
voted unanimously to stay right
there.
All this took place after the police
had been regularly notified that the
meeting would take place. Even
tually, seeing the determined way the
crowd closed in, and sure of reSis-
lance if they tried to break up the
meeting, the police went off, and re-
ported back that headquarters said
the meeting could go on.
It was highly successful, the work
ers and jobless cheering and ap-
plauding, and signing many names
to the demands that Congress pass
the Workers Unemployment Insur-
ance Bill, and some joining the coun-
ell. An indoor meeting was held at
~ Myrtle Ave. afterwards. There
will be meetings every day here al
$3.50 a. m. Negro workers are espe-
G. ~ invited.
Yesterday another meeting was
held in Brooklyn before tombstone
and Jay, and the police tried to force
the workers to speak lower. The
meeting went on, however, until ii
was sufficiently organized to go down
to 70 Myrtle Ave, where many joined
the Councils of the Unemployed.

Arrest Students Who
Demand Free Lunch
for Kids of JObless

BROOKLYN, N. Y.-When two
former students of Utrecht High
School issued leaflet calling upon
the student body to protest the ar
rest OF two other students, they were
taken to the Coney Island Court and
held in $500 bail each. They are
Joseph Cohen and Esther AXIS, mem
bers of the Young Communist
League. Their trial will come up
Tuesday morning at the Coney
Island Court.
In the early part of this year DR..
Harry A. Potter, principal OF the
school, disbanded the History Club,
a students organization, as being
"unamerican." 1t was "unamerican"
because the students demanded free
lunch for students whose parents
are jobless, real student representa-
ton, a paper that would be of and
for students and an open school
lunch period
Recently a group of students, mem
bers of the Young Communist
League, decided to present their de-
mands in the form of a Utrecht
Bulletin" The first issue called for
the establishment of the History
Club and for students to sign petit
ton demanding it. Three thousand
five hundred students. many of
whom work after school, responded,
but nothing was done about it.
The second issue again presented
the demands of the former History
Club. Two former Utrecht students
volunteered to distribute this bull
letin. They were arrested and SEN
fenced to three days imprisonment
in the Coney Island Court. 1t was
their arrest that was protested.

NEW YORK.-One of the most
burning questions before the millinery
workers today is the collective agree
ment which the millinery manufac-
turers and the officials of the Cloth
Hat, Cap and Millinery Workers In
ternational are conspiring to put over
on the workers.
Yet the meeting held few days
ago which was to have been a con-
tinuation of meeting two weeks ago
primarily to discuss the collective
agreement was turned into squabble
between the several cliques for leader
ship. The workers known to be
against the agreement which is being
plotted by the bosses and the officials
of the company unionized Interna-
tional were not given the floor lest
they expose the fact that the officials
are working hand in glove with the
bosses to put over this wage-cuting,
speed-up agreement.
After the various cliques got
through telling on each other and one
rank and filler who spoke against the
agreement but attacked it as some
thing the bosses wanted without
showing the role Of the company
union officialdom in maneuvering
into effect the exhausted member
ship was himself unanswered into
voting for proposition giving the or
ficials the right to negotiate with the
bosses on the collective agreement
although the membership is fatty
against it. Instead of a vote by a
show of hands Eyes or no" vote was
taken and the chairman arbitrarily
ruled for the proposition of negoti-
ating.
This Means Sellout.
This actually means the enforce
ment OF one of the worst wage-cut-

ting, speed collective agreements ever
known in the needle industry unless
the workers awaken to the necessity
of taking the matter into their own
hands. Not by votes but through
action in the shops
Mr. Lederfarb, ex-chairman of the
executive and leader of one Of the
local cliques in his anxiety to gain a
following for himself told tales out
of school and corroborated what the
left-wingers in the local and the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union has pointed out to the mil
linery workers. Piece work, Leder-
farb stated is being worked in many
shops with the full knowledge of the
executive although the agreement
calls for week work. Many of the
club members, that is the organized
machine work overtime and Sunday
in spite of the decisions against over
time in view of the widespread I'M
employment he admitted.
A Trick.
In order to prevent real discus
sion from the floor on the collective
agreement and a proper vote the
chques were permitter to take up the
time attacking each other. The class
conscious, fighting left wingers were
deliberately refused the floor though
they were on the list.
Discomfort among the membership
is so great that the rank and file
committee recently organized by
members of locals "a and AZ for the
purpose of fighting the collective
agreement and the wage-cuts, speed
up, impartial machinery and general
worsening of the already miserable
conditions of the millinery is gaining
many syrnpathizers, as indicated by
the attendance of 200 workers at an
open forum held under its auspices.

Critical Battle Monday
at $50 P. NJ.
(Continued from PAGE One

Continued from Page One)
nnittee pointed out yesterday that the
mass demonstration Monday eve
ming must have the support of every
class conscious worker. 1t is not the
fight alone of the food workers who
were locked out when the zelgreen
boss and Irving Epstein of the A. F..
of l., Local 302 got out an injunction
to defend the 12-hour day in the
Zelgreen, and locked out the Food
Workers Industrial Union members
who had previously established union
conditions there.
1t Is not the fight alone of the
needle workers, prominent so far in
the mobilization campaign against
injunctions, because they know that
the coming giant strike of dressmak-
ers will be met with the injunction
weapon at every shop.
1t is not the fight alone of the
shoe workers, who have suffered
hundreds of arrests for violation of
injunctions against icketing during
the great union smashing lockout or
dered over a year ago by the U. S.
government.
1t is the fight of every worker,
and every worker must fight nowl
Now is the opportunity, and to let
it go by would be very dangerous to

in New York.
Is Large Forces Needed.
Fred Biedenkap, chairman of the
Smash the Injunction Committee,
stated yesterday that there is no
question in the minds of the COM
mittee that the police will be at the
zelgreen in full force to prevent the
workers asserting their right to
strike Monday. The committee feels
too that the workers will rally to save
that right and come also in full
force. Thousands are needed. Eel
green Cafeteria is at 257 West 34th
St, near Eighth Ave. Every shop
must send its quota, with its own
chosen leader, registered with the
Smash the Injunction Committee.

HeraHDoes George
Minette An Injustice
Young Man Insists His Relations
With All Club Members Al
WAYS Pleasant

Last weeks Herald carried a
story giving a resume of the Coun-
ty-wide All Club Activities for the
year 1929.
In discussing the County Coun-
ellis plans for the coming year, the
following statement was made:
It is understood that the
Council does not expect to en-
ploy George Minette, of this
city, as countrywide Club lead
err this year. 1t is said that he
got out of line with several of
the Club members when the
County Fair was held in this
city last July.
Mr.. Minette insists that in the
above statement the Herald did
him an injustice; that he did not
get out of line with the Club men,
bers at fair time or at any other
period of the year; that he gave
the boys and girls. and they in turn
gave him every cooperation.
The Herald is mighty sorry, in
deed that we have caused Mr.. Mi
nette any inconvenience, and we
regret sincerely placing him in d
false light before the community.
The writer has always felt that be-
cause of his previous years of ex-
perience in All Club work he was
the best qualified man in the
county as leader.

Red Wing Publisher Files
for Lieutenant Governor
Jens X. GrOndahl Third to Seek
the Republican Nomination at
June Primaries

Jens K. Grondahl, publisher of
the Red Wing Republican, has an
nounced his candidacy for lieuten
ant governor in the republican pri-
mary. He will file immediately
and make an active campaign for
the nomination, already contested
by Reuben G. Thorsen, of Still
water, and II. B. Rutledge, of Mir
neapolis, with others likely to emit
er the field.
Mr.. Grondahl served three terms
in the lower house of the legisla-
ture, in 1895, 1897 and 1899. He
was one of the youngest member G
ever elected, but retired voluntar-
lily after the 1899 session to de,
vote his entire time to his new
paper. He has been urged py
friends to run for various state
Offices, but has declined until now
A statement issued by friends to-
day gave some of the high spots in
his legislative record. !
Mr.. Grondahl, the statement said,
was leader in abolishing contract
labor at the Saltwater prison, and
had large part in making the
asylums for the insane more mod
ern, more economical and more
He codified the laws
relating to the training school for
boys at Red Wing and helped es-
tab;ish the parole system there.
