Good Prospects to Win,
Orders Piling Up

NEW YORK. strikers of the
Excelsior Tile and Marble Co., 896 E,
l41st ST., have succeeded in keeping
the shop closed down tight. All the
efforts of the boss to recruit scabs
have failed.
Fron information received by the
strikers, it is known that the boss
will try to reopen the shop Monday
morning with scab help and police
and gangster protection. Yesterday
The police tried to intimidate the
pickets around the shop stating that
only one picket is allowed at the
plant. The strikers refused to be in
Inundated in spite Of threats of club
bing and arrests.
The prospects for winning the
strike are good since orders are piling
up and the boss cannot fill them. All
workers are asked to come out on
Monday morning to show their Soli-
darity with the strikers and prevent
the opening of the shop.
The workers are fighting for the
S-hour day, the 44-hour week, against
a Is per cent wage cut, and recogni-
ton of the shop committee. They
are organized into the Trade Union

FEEFER STRIKE
STILL GOES ON

The strike at the Feifer Bros. Slip
per Co., 4l-51 East 18th ST., is still
on and the reported settlement yes
terday was an error.
Yesterday the bosses induced one
of their strikebreaker agents to swear
out a warrant for the arrest of the
chairman of the Strike Committee,
Morris Schiff, on framed up charge
of assault.
The strikebreakers are constantly
fighting among themselves in the
shop calling one another scabs and
that number of gangsters wanting
more money decided to have mix
up. so they selected strikebreaker
by the name of Meyer Kaufman of
Brownsville and gave him good
bsating-now the bosses blame it on
the strikers and had Schiff arrested.
Schiff was released on $1,000 fur
nished by the Shoe and Leather
Workers Industrial Union which is
conducting the strike, and was back
on the picket line Immediately.
The strike at the Faleck & Seaman
Shop received further support from
a number of workers who came down
today. The strike is the result of
the discharge Of two workers, one of
them the shop chairman, for no other
reason than to destroy the spirit of
solidarity that was rapidly develop
ing among the workers, whom the
bosses had been keeping separated by
cunning propaganda among the Ital-
ian workers against the Jewish work
ers and vice versa.

Title.

LAKE PLACID CLUB, New York,
February shooting down an icy
slide in Subzero temperature, the team
representing the Saranac Lake Sports
Association today won the first North
American Amateur Athletic Union
championship event for four-man bob
sleighs.
The fastest heat of the mile and q
half course was negotiated in l minute
and So seconds, the fastest time made
on the recently constructed Olympic
run. The total time for the four heats
was 7 minutes 31.35 seconds.
Hunter Goodrich and his crew from
Milwaukee finished second and Harry
third place.
The mercury stood at 10 degrees be-
low zero when the competition opened,
but rose gradually as the sun assembled
high in the sky. The course was so
fast that sawdust had to be sprinkled
near some of the dangerous turns to
keep the 400-pound sleds and their
four occupants from shooting over the
side walls and it was necessary for
the crews to apply the brakes on the
approach to nearly every turn.
There were two spills, but the injuries
were limited to scra tched faces and
one plack eye. Inc German Sleo, cap
tanned by Baron Walter Won Mum
upset, as did the sled piloted by Hubert
Stevens of the Lake Placid Athletic
Association. Both entries resumed the
coast, but were so far outdistanced
that they Withdrew before the events
ended.
The winning team was composed OF
heavyweights, the nghteSt man tipping
the scale at 1876 pounds. It was cap
tanned by H. A. Hamburger, the en-
gineer who constructed the run.
