Movers Union, Sunday at 2:3o p. m.
at Astoria Hall, has moved" the now
notorious traitor and sell out expert,
Frank Lamby, right out of the union
and has elected new executive
committee,
The Da 1y Worker recently carried
an account Of how the Transport
Workers Industrial League, affiliated
to the Trade Union Unity Council,
16 west 21st St. had exposed the pre-
vious scabby record of Lamby. This
individual, who was business agent
(until just now expelled of the Rig

time ago business agent of Local 100
of the Paper Box Makers Union CA.
F. L. and was expelled by the paper

The answer of the riggers and safe
movers membership to the fake set
Element put through by the bosses
and a few of Lamby's henchmen in
the executive of the union, settle
ment which actually forces speed-up,
firing of the workers, cutting of
wages and other rotten conditions
was unanimously for his expulsion.
Immediately after taking this action,
a new executive was elected.
The Transport Workers Industrial
League greets the new executive and
looks forward to this executive lead
ing a struggle to bring back to the

their future struggles.

MASS MEET WE'D.
ON DEPORTATIONS
LID Organizing Fight
On Terror

NEW YORK.-While the U. S. De-
partment of Labor continued to pick
up scores of foreign-born workers
for deportation, the workers are or
ganizing their forces under the Lead
ership of the International Labor De-
Tense for a determined struggle
against this government terror. The
New York District of the LID is
calling on all workers in New York
City and vicinity actively to join this
fight at big mass meeting to protest
against the efforts to deport Louis
Bebrits, editor of the Hungarian
Communist daily, vi Elore. The
meeting will be held next wednesday,
March IL, at 8 p. m. at Irving Plaza,
18th st. and Irving Place.
BebritS was arrested for deporta-
ton several weeks ago as a direct re-
suit Of his militant testimony before
the Fish Committee. His arrest and
subsequent arrests of foreign-born
workers show that the government is
putting into effect the fascist pro-
posals of the Fish Committee even
before Congress he's acted on them.
Bebrits is now out on $1,000 bail, but
unless the workers of the entire
country act at once and get solidly
behind the fight of the New York
lid to free him, he will be delivered
into the hands of the bloody ex-
ecutioners of the Hungarian work.

DRESSMAkERS
in MASS PICKET
DEMONSTRATION
Fourth Week Of Strike
Opens; Thousands
Still Out

NEW YORK.-The beginning of
the fourth week of the dressmakers
strike here was marked by mass
picketing demonstration this morn
ing, the third since the strike began,
The dressmakers here and in Phila-
delphia went OH strike a month ago
against the unbearable conditions
prevalent in the needle industry.
Within the past year their wages
had been reduced from 40 to SO per
cent, sometimes more, their hours
had heightened until a 60 and TO
hour week was common, and new
and successfully more brutal speed
up systems we're constantly being in
troduced Just before the strike be-
gan average wages of dressmakers
had fallen to less than $40 week,
and there were thousands who were
being paid 81, Sc and So,
Negroes and Y9qth Most Exploited
Negro and young dressmakerT we're
the most bitterly exploited of the lot.
Negro dressmakers were always paid
the lowest wages and were prevented
from working at the more skilled
jobs. Young dressmakers were forced
to do the work Of skilled adult dress
makers at half the latters' wages.
Women were exploited in the same
manner.
Workers organizations all over the
country are contributing to the SIS
600 Dress Strike Fund, and bazaar
to be held here by the union on
March 10 to % is expected to raise
substantial sum to aid the dress
makers in their fight against their
wealthy exploiters.

Huge Den Mvereeting.

Even so, Denver workers assem-
bled in the biggest meeting they had
since Haywood was released from
Jail in 1907.
In Los Angeles meetings were
smashed or meeting places prohibited
one after the other.
The agricultural districts are espe-
cially visited by the terror, because
it is safer there for the terrorists,
and there is no sufficient body of
workers to oppose them.
In Oakland three halls we're re-
fused in one day. In Seattle the only
hall cbtainable was on the outskirts
Of town. No hall could be had in
Spokane at all. No hall was obtain
able in Butte-Foster held street
meeting.
Foster found especially the young
American workers turning with en-
thusiasna to the Communist Party.

The Milwaukee meeting was twice

been vicious during demonstrations,
there was good crowd.
The economic basis of this rising
militancy of the workers is the gen
eral wage-cutting and terrific unem-
ployment-with the capitalists and
their governments providing practi-
cally no relief.
The second most important feature
seen on this tour, said Foster, was
the ruthless terror in many places.
"You begin to feel the atmosphere
of police terror as soon as you reach
Denver" said Focter.

LABOR DAY THOUGHTS

Editorial writer's point out that
Labor Day addresses show that the
people are thinking about unemploy-
ment, its causes and its remedies.
1t is also pointed out that Labor
Day speakers emphasized the need to
prevent such depressions as we are
now experiencing. The feeling seems
to be growing stronger every month
that this depression was unnecessary
and its repetition must be prevented
at all costs. This marks progress.
Also, Labor Day speakers from the
ranks of organized labor and some
others struck new note of mill
fancy. 1t was asserted that the work
ers have been patient long enough
and that the time has come for them
to demand the putting into effect of
the sound and constructive American
Federation of Labor program for the
prevention of depressions. John P.
Frey was one of those who strongly
stressed this view.

Street remarks, eve do not look for
any loud outburst of applause of this
idea from the farmers" and adds:
"Industrialism has given us an
abundance that was undreamed of
two hundreds years ago. We still
have to work out method of dividing
up the pie. In former times the prob
lem was to have a pie to divide"
The Magazine of Wall Street puts
its finger on the problem. The pie is
rot being divided equitably. A few
are getting too much, while the great
mass is getting too little. This con-
dition caused the depression, a fact
which is slowly but surely sinking
into the minds of the people.
