Green finds he must follow a new
line of boloney. stand by the presi-
dent!" was his first way of telling
the workers to meet the crisis. 1t
doesn't work now, so Green discovers
that by a mild criticism of capitalism
he may fool workers into believing
that he means business.
He started off at the International
Longshoremens Association conven-
ton at New York City recently. The
officers of the I. l.. A. increased their
own wages and made the workers
pay for it. Green found that by
yelling against wage cuts he could
distract attention. He appealed to
the capitalists to do something to
preserve capitalism as the workers
we're getting wise and we're beginning
to fight.
Following up this new line Green
gave an interview to the Scripps-
Howard newspapers in which he said
capitalism was on trial" Green
knows capitalism isn't very popular
just now with the millions of unem-
ployed, and for that matter, with
those still employed who suffer
wage cuts and an attack against
their standard of living. He knows
his usefulness to capitalism will be
increased By appearing as "a friend
of the workingman'

ties in regard to alien agitation, 1t
was said, and this visit is the first

Takers Worried.
The Associated Silk Workers and
United Textile Workers, led by A. r
of L. takers, are trying to confuse
the workers. At first they declared
they would not heed the strike call
of the United Front Committee and
the National Textile Workers Union
Then when they saw the tremendous
support expressed by the workers for
the General Strike Call they an
nounced they would call their mem
berS out on Aug. 3. With the strike
meeting with response throughout
the industry, the takers are fearful
that their membership might join
the strike under the National Textile
Workers Union leadership, and some
of them say the date will be ad-
vanced to Aug. l. No definite in
formation has been issued. The
Paterson Evening News" tonight re-
ports the proceedings of the A. F.
of L. takers as follows:
after a session that lasted far
into the early hours Of the morn
ing, the joint strike committee of
the Associated Silk Workers and
the United Textile Workers, asso-
ciated with the American Fedora
tion of Labor, were deadlocked on
the question Of whether or not to
call an immediate strike of its
5000 members or adhere to the
original date of Aug. 3. The meet
ing will be continued this evening
on the same issue"
The same paper also states that
these takers, seeing the call of the
National Textile Workers arousing
the masses of workers, may be forced
to issue a strike call soon.
The effect of the strike on the in
dustry is admitted to be growing
The Paterson Evening News" de-
clared that with the shops being
pulled out at the present rate the
whole industry would be tied up
Quoting the bosses, the News" said:
"If the Communist unit sue
ceeded in getting a sufficient num-
Der of men out of the shops of the
smaller weavers, they might sue
coed in getting the dyeing and
printing workers to strike"
