Painters Are Meeting
Tomorrow to Protest
Expulsion of Members

NEW York; mass meeting
Saturday at 1870 pm. at the Labor
Temple, 243 East Saith st. is called by
the rank and file Joint Committee of
Loals eo5 and 1ol1 of the Brotherhood
of Painters, Decorators and Paper
Hangers of North America.
The meeting is TO protest the out
rsgeous frame up and expulsion
campaign waged against militant
workers in Local 905. Two workers,
Max Rosen and S. Bogorod are being
made victims by the zauSner clique
which runs the union because they
exposed ZauSner and his henchmen
as well as the fake progressives in
these two above mentioned locals
who pretended at one time to fight
Zausner, but are now working hand
in hand with Zausner.
The employers have started such a
system of wage cutting that 95 per
cent of them now pay under the
union scale, and unemployment has
increased until it affects 80 per cent
of the membership. zausner and the
fake progressives alike do nothing to
remedy this situation. The members
slated for expulsion not only spoke
for program of militant struggle,
but the Joint Committee itself points
out cases in which the Zausner
clique bribed with Office some Of
these "progressives." zausner was at
one time run out for treachery and
graft, but muscled his way back in.

Soviet Director CheyUi0k0U
Originator OF Lyric Genre

Evgeny Veniaminovitch Chervia-
kov, the director of the film Cities
and Years" opening today at the
Cameo Theatre, is one of the origi-
majors OF lyric genre in the Soviet
einematography and the most inter
esting artist in this respect. Cher
viakov was born in 1899, in Obdulin,
one of the small towns of Bashkiria.
His father, mechanic, took ON a
job in the city of Ufa shortly after
the boy was born, and in that city he
first got interested in the theatre.
In 1914 he entered the dramatical
courses organized in Ufa by the &C
tor of the Moscow Art Theatre, Po-
totsky. In 1918 he joined the Peo-
pies Army.
In 1920, Cheryiakov for the first
time became acquainted with the
cinema. The films that made the
first impression upon him were
mounted from pieces by the local OPP
orator, for not one whole picture
came to those parts. Nevertheless,
the little he saw awakened in him
desire to study. He left for Mos
COW. After roaming for consider
able time in the south of Russia,
where he worked as an actor in the
grotesque and miniature theatres,
Cherviakov finally managed to reach
Moscow in 1922. Here he entered
the first studio Of the Moscow Art

ILGW IN S H A NJ
FIGHT OVER CUTS
Ne oler Admits Union
Stands for Slash

NEW YORK;. v. Ingersoll, the
impartial chairman" recognized by
the International Ladies Garment
workers, the state and the organized
employers, has rendered a decision
couched in words that may mean
anything, on the subject of arbitrary
reduction Of wages above the ILG.W.
minimum scale.
The employers claim victory and
the International, through Isadore
Nagler, general manager of its joint
board of cloakn1akers, also claims
victory.
The latter has a long statement in
Women's Wear, the employers trade
paper, in which he puts forth his
claims, and at the same time makes
two important admissions, which
show that the victory, whoever won
it, is useful only to the employers
Sure There Are Cuts.
Nsgler says, "As for Mr.. Klein's
seeking comfort in the thought that
the decision is against the theory
that wages once fixed are unchange-
able under any circumstances, it is
enough to say that the theory was
never advanced. There have been
wage adjustments in the past--indi-
vidual adjustments Klein is direc-
tor of the Industrial council the
employers. !.
But Nag1er goes on: 1.-THE collective
agreement provides for them. No
worker according to agreement,
shall receive less than the above
scale except those that are deficient
in production by reason of age or
physical condition"
Later on, Nagler declares the agree
ment allows of another reason for cut
ting wages below the scale, soldier
ing on the job"
Need a Real Union.
The fact is, that with these three
excuses allowed him by the IL.G.W.
agreement, an employer can cut
wages just as he likes, not only
wages above the minimum scale, but
wages below the minimum scale. And
that is just what the employers do,
without regard to the contract, and
with the help of the IL.G.W. The
whole argument of Ingersoll is beside
the point.
Nothing but a real union, actually
| fighting for wages, not for fancy and
tricky contracts, will get the needle
workers anything. Such a real union
is the Needle Trades Workers Indus
trial Union.

GET TENANTS TO

NEW YoFK.-The coney Island

At the present time he is no longer

that they are to move within five
days, and Monday was the fifth day.

This meeting kept up for several

Will stay where we are and will pay
as soon as we can, and if you evict
us, we will fight. We are not alone,
there is an organized tenants league
behind us, we will call big meetings
on this street, we will picket this
house and the rooms will not be
rented.
Committees are watching this house
from early morning until late at
noon, and the eviction has not taken
place.
Another street meeting will be held,
on Saturday afternoon On the same
block to demonstrate against the ac-
ton in the two houses, located at

CAPONE WINS
COURT TILT IN
VACRANCY CASE
Gets Delay in Trial and
Forces State to Amend
Its Complaint.

DH LNttfU EFtto
CHICAGO, March "Scarface
Al" Capone won a tilt with the law
today when MS vagrancy hearing
was continued by Judge Frank N.
Padden until April 3, while the state
amends its complaint against the
notorious gangster.
Capone slipped into the criminal
courts building through a rear door
and rode up to Padden's courtroom
in an elevator reserved for county
jail prisoners.
He had on his best courtroom
smile and a brown ensemble-suit,
shoes, spats, hat and tie.
Spectators left the Leo v. Brothers
trial in an adjoining courtroom to
cape at Capone.
Patrolman Roy Van Herrick, who
signed the complaint accusing the
wealthy and elusive Capone of be
ing vagrant, admitted to Judge
Padden that he had no personal
knowledge to that effect.
Harry D. Ditchburne, assistant
states attorney, opposed a contln-
uance, arguing higher courts had up
held such complaints.
Ditchbourne finally promised to
have the bill signed by someone
familiar with Capone's visits to
gambling halls, speakeasies and
houses of i'll fame"
Judge Padden warned Michael j.
Ahearn, Capone'S attorney, and
Ditchburne, that he would brook no
more delays.
