Call on Furniture
Workers to Take
Over Strike Control

A leaflet was distributed at 7 a.
m. today by the Trade Union Unity
League to striking furniture frame
workers at shop on Newport Ave,
in Brooklyn, calling upon them to
take the strike into their own
hands and to fight the reactionary
union officials who are betraying
the strike. The T. U. U. L. called
upon the workers to fight for the
following demands: 40 hour 5-day
week, 10 per cent increase in wages,
equal division of work, unemploy-
ment insurance paid by the bosses
and controlled by the workers, and
for organization Of the unorganized
furniture workers into one indus
trial union affiliated with the
Trade Union Unity League.
The strike began about a week
ago against the bosses scheme to
force workers to work six weeks
for three weeks pay and "notes"
for the remainder and also to buy
shares. The plan went into effect
about three weeks ago, and Max
Perloff, president of the A. F. of
l.. union, a Lovestoneite, together
with the business agent, persuaded
the workers to accept the plan. But
after week the workers began a
spontaneous strike, which the Off
Gals had to Sanction" to avoid
being kicked out by the rank and
file. But they have been negotiat-
ing with the bosses, and no attempts
are made to keep out scabs or or
ganize mass picketing. Perloff had
formerly sold out strike, surren-
dering the basic demands to the
bosses.
Perloff brought Benjamin Gitlow,
who is now engaging in vicious at
tacks on left wing workers organ
izations and the Communist Party,
to speak at union meeting. Git
low avoided any mention of the
strikebreaking role of the A. F. L.
