YOUTH CALL FOR
ANTI-WAR MEET
P erm an e t Body to
Fight War Needed

"a permanent united front organ
ization to fight bosses war prepara-
tons Is of vital Importance" states
the Young Communist League in a
call for preparatory conference, to
be held Saturday, december 5, 5 pm,
at Workers Center. 1.-THE severe SEN
fences given TO young workers in the
National Guard who missed one drill
night show the Tightening Of discip-
line in preparation for war. The re-
cent developments in the Manchu-
rian situation, In which the United
States government has been backing
Japans war on Manchuria, shows the
closeness OF an imperialist war
against the Soviet Union, and the
young workers must organize to fight
these preparations"
The preparatory conference will
make plans for a United Front Con-
ference on January 8, which will form
a permanent United Front Organiza-
ton.
The Young Communist League calls
upon all youth organizations to send
delegates to the preparatory confer
ence and to aid in the building of q
youth anti-war movement.

FOR MORE PAY
Strike Lead by Metal
Workers Industrial
League

The workers of the Durable Tool
Co., at 254 Canal ST., who struck on

toriously on Friday morning. The
demands which the workers have won
are: Recognition of the shop COM
mittee, an increase Of $2.40 per week

in the majority; of $l.62 for the next
group, and of SIPS for the rest. The

strikers we're supplied with sand
wiches by the Workers international
Relief, and the workers have in
structed their committee to thank the
organization for this help. :.

League calls attention to the fact
that this offensive strike was won
during the crisis, against all the pre-
dictions of the American Federation

can't be won at present. Most OF
those who struck are young workers.

LAUNDRY BOSS
PULLS A GUN
But Pickets Defeat His
Gangsters

NEW YORK.-T11e bosses, and the
police and gangsters are trying every
thing they can to break the strike
Of the Active Laundry workers, and
are falling. A couple Of days ago,
Steinhorn, president of the bosses
association, led group OF notorious
professional gangsters, including the
Moretzky brothers, f'Cocky' Gross,
Brooks and Blum in an attack on
an open air meeting near the laun-
dry. The workers put up hot fight,
even though Steinhorn pulled a gun.
The police who were neutral until
the gangsters got the worst Of it,
then jumped in and arrested several
strikers.
The bosses have organized a COM
pany union to counterfeit the effect
Of the strike. They distributed a cir
cular stating that the workers who
went out on strike are criminals who
took away the money of the COM
pany.
AS a matter of fact, every driver
must have hundred or more dollars
as security with the bosses to cover
any money that is outstanding among
the customers. The driver is held
responsible for any money lost that
cannot be collected, because people
move away or have no money. The
leaflet also states that the bosses are
very kind hearted to their drivers,
whereas, as matter of fact, the
drivers earn around 20 dollars week,
and while some get more quite a
few get less. Only lately the bosses
took away the guarantee Of some
drivers of minimum of $50 week,
and they cut the wages of about rs
inside workers 10 per cent. The leaf
let is signed for the new company
union by some relatives OF the
bosses.
All workers are asked to come to
the union office, $50 E. 139th st., cor
ner Bird Ave, to help the union carry
on the work.

LATHERS' STRIKE
PICKETS JAILED
Gust Racketeers From
Union

The strike of the Lathers' Union,
Local 244, of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, continues despite the
attempts tstrike- breaking of the
expelled union officials. These for
mer officials, led by Willie Cohen,
have elaborated with the bosses in
getting an injunction against the
strikers. But, in order to cover this
strike-breaking act and convince the
workers that their former officials are
honest and should be taken back. the
injunction was served on Willie Co
hen. Two workers, Sam Wexler and
Alex. zarin, who defied the injunc-
ton and picketed the struck job at
86th st. and Shore Road, have been
arrested and their case will be
brought up next Tuesday at the
Magistrates Court. Their trial will
serve as a test case as to who con-
trolls the union, the rank and file or
the expelled Willie Cohen, whom the
bosses want to reinstate.
The anger of the fathers against
the racketeerS who have been run
ming their union may be seen by the
fact that besides being thrown cut
of office they have been thrown out
of the union.
