FUR FAkERS IN
NEW MANEUVER

NEW YORK.-As was anticipated,
the Fur Joint Council of the Inter-
national Fur Workers Union again
went back on its own Unity Con-
ference" and nullified the decision of
its own subcommittee, 1t forbade
the Subcommittee to carry through
the decision for an open conference
in the presence of the furriers.
The Unity Conference which was
scheduled to meet on Monday, was
again postponed until Thursday on
the flimsy excuse that they could not
secure a hall.
The fur workers can readily see
through these maneouvres of the
Socialist politicians, paid agents OF
the bosses, A. F.. Of L. union, who are
afraid to continue their fake Unity
Conference after they we're forced by
the Industrial Union to submit to
the demands of the furriers for an
open conference.

that every fake manoeuvre With
which they meant to mislead and
interfere with the struggles of the
FUR workers has turned out to be a
boomerang against them Thousands

DUAL SOCIALIST
GRAFT UNIONS TO

New Division of the

Reconciliation

NEW YORK.--The Orlofsky- Bee
herman clique that organized the
dual company union in the mems
clothing industry, the International
Clothing Workers Union, yesterday
accepted under pressure, the proposal
Of the socialist party and the Jewish
Daily Forward for arbitration of the
internecine conflict that developed in
the A. c. w. over division of the
graft revenue Leading officials of
the Amalagamated Clothing Workers
and the International Clothing
Workers Union are prominent mem
berS of the socialist party. The Or
lofsky group accepted upon conditions
that the investigation include the
finances Of the general offices of the
A. c. w.
Openly move to reconcile the two
warning factions of the socialist Of
ficaldom, the action of socialist
party is interpreted as a move to
WhlteWaSh both company unions and
to forestall the development of left
wing movement. The division of the
graft and racketeering revenue &C.
cruing to the A. c. w. caused the
first split between the Hilln1an So
cialists and the Orlofsky socialists,
and new arrangement of the Spoils
is considered tantamount to an
agreement
Tear Down Standards
At present both socialist factions
are feverishly competing with each
other to curry favor with the en-
ployers, offering wild concessions
that arc rapidly tearing down the
present standards. Workers of the
Fishkin shop were called to a meet
ing by Hillman group and piece work
at lower rates offered to the en-
ployers. Orlofsky countered with an
offer to send out goods out of town
to be made up still cheaper than
Hillman could offer.
