BREAD STRIKE IN F..
CONEY IS SOLID

That the workers of Coney Island
are standing solidly behind the strike
for the reduced prices on bread was
seen on Friday morning when gang
sters and police tried to provoke
fights with the pickets. one woman
was chased through the streets BY
gangsters. When they couldn't get
her they went into a cleaning store
on West 32nd and with the aid Of
the police beat up and arertsed the
store keeper, Louis Fergelman when
he stated that no one was hiding In
his store. His trial was postponed
until the following Monday.
A mass meeting was held on FRI
day night with more than 1000 work.
ers, and house wives present. All the
workers pledged to continue the fight
until the prices will come down.
Louis Engdahl was cheered when he
rose to speak in the name Of the
Communist Party. The international
Bakers Union "a. f. of L. called
meeting also for Friday night, but
when they saw that no one came to
their meeting they called it off with
the excuse that 1t was raining.

forces in the struggle against the
united front of the workers.
United Front Committees.
The sooner the mass OF dressmak-
ers put aside any false hopes and
gets down to the tasks of uniting
their ranks, the sooner they get down
to the task of building united front
committees to include all elements
right wingers, left wingers, Negro
white. Spanish, Italian, organized and
unorganized, the sooner the workers
get down to the task of preparing a
real rank and file strike committee
elected by and responsible to the
mass of the workers to lead and set
tie the strike on the basis of the de-
mands worked out by the dress
makers the sooner will the present
low wages, long hours, unemploy-
ment, speed-up, miserv and starva-
ton be wiped out and the dressnak-
ers once more build a union to fight
for their interests.
United Struggle VIII Bring One
Union in the Dress Trade
The dressmakers must understand
that not by conferences with mis-
leaders, but by organizing their ranks
on common program for common
demands against the bosses, by fight-
ing with united ranks on the picket
line for their just demands, can they
develop real effective struggle which
will bring about the desired unity and
one union ruled by the workers, a
union where the union shall dictate
the policies, the character Of the lead
ership, a union controlled and ad-
ministercd by the workers In the in
terests of the workers.
The dressmakers in the course of
the struggles of the needle trades
have often led the way. In 1909 they
sounded the signal for the organiza-
ton of the needle trades workers. In
the struggle against the betrayers,
the dressmakers have been in the
forefront, and now is the time when,
once more, the dressmakers on the
basis of their own strength and unity
must take up the struggle and once
more lead the way for the other
needle trades workers to wipe out the
sweat shop conditions and build a
strong powerful united union, led, ad-
ministered and controlled by the

Alteration Painters
Start Campaign to
Build Strong Union
Three Groups in City
Plan Activities and
Open Up An Office

With the group in the Bronx grow
ing and new groups organized in
Williansburgh and Brownsville, al
teration painters have swung into
the campaign to build strong Altera-
ton Painters Unions affiliated to
the Trade Union Unity League. A
permanent headquarters for the
Bronx section has been established at
1925 Southern Boulevard, near Free
man st. station, and will be open
every day from am. until late at
night.
An enthusiastic meeting of the
Bronx section was held last Thurs
day, when a number of alteration
painters joined and a fund was
started for the campaign.
Open forums will be held every
Tuesday at 10 am. with leading
members of the Building Trades Sec
ton of the Trade Union Unity
League discussing trade and organ
ization problems.
Regular meetings of the Bronx
Section of the Alteration Painters
Union are held at the union office
every Thursday at 8 pm. A banquet
will be held at the office Dec. 26,
where leading members of the Build
ing Trades Section and delegates
from groups in A. F. Of L. building
trades locals will be present.
Conditions in the trades are get
ting worse every day. The employ
ers know no limit to the wage cuts,

they are enforcing. Men are offered
as low as 81 day and the eight-hor
day is actually abolished. The masses

against them. To a question by a
reporter for the Baltimore Afro
American as to what he intended
doing about this brutal lynching,
Ritchie replied:
What can I do2 I can do no
more about pushing this case after
1t leaves the hands of the Wicomico
grand jury than you could"
This was Ritchie's attitude when
Worcester County officials were
brazenly denying the simplest con-
stitutional rights to Orphan Oee)
Jones, denying him the right to see
a counsel and finally trying to de-
prive him of the militant defense Of
the International Labor Defense, an
organization of white and Negro
workers.
1t is with this bloody record Of
brutal suppression of Negro rights,
and with the SNUG hypocrisy of the
slave-driver, that Ritchie, afraid to
come to New York in person, wires
his demagogic spoutings to the Ma
tional Republican Club. In that wire
he warns his fellow slave drivers of
the menace to American (boss) prin-
ciples (such as Jim Crowism, race
hatred, starvation of the unem-
ployed) in "the revolutionary ideas
prevalent in some countries abroad
and advocated to an extent here"
With the blood of Negro workers
on his hands, and speaking as rep
resentative of the capitalist class
which carries on brutal suppression
of the rights of the Negro masses,
this demagog declares in his wire
that the strength" Of the boss gov
ernment lies in the fact that it gives
expression to the traditions, ideals
and free spirit that animated our
forefathers in their century-old ef-
forts for self government"

subject on which he was to have ad-
dressed the club,
While his telegram was being read
at luncheon Of the club, the work
ers marched past the club with BAN
ners raised and shouting slogans
against the bosses lynch terror, and
for unconditional equality for the
Negro masses.
Proceeding by way OF Fifty Ave,
the workers held a demonstration at
37th St. at which speakers denounced
the brutal lynching Of Matthew Will
Hams on Dec. 4 on the Eastern Shore
of Maryland.
j. Louis Engdahl, Cecil Hope and
Comrade Kingston pointed out that
lynch gangs of rich farmers and
hoodlunls had been roaming the
Eastern Shore for weeks, searching
jails for two framed up Negro farm
hands, Orphan Oee) Jones and
George Davis.
The activities of the lynch gangs
we're openly encouraged by Gov
Ritchie and other state officials, and
by the bosses courts Of the Eastern
Shore. The demand of Bernard AIDES,
attorney of the International Labor
Defense, for a change of venue to
Baltimore for the trial of Orphan
Lee) Jones, had been denied by the
courts with the brazen declaration
that there was no danger of lynch
gang violence on the Eastern Shore.
Two days before Jones was to go
on trial on the Eastern Shore, Mat
thew Williams was lynched. With
the eyes of the working class on
Maryland, the boss courts were
forced to postpone the trial Of Jones.
