Votes Mine Help

NEW YORK.-The heroic fight of
more than 10000 coal miners in
Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia,
and Kentucky under the leadership
Of the revolutionary National Min
ers Union, is creating an ever wild
ening wave of sympathy among the
rank and file workers in the A. F. of
L.
The latest manifestation OF this
sympathy with the strikers has taken
place in Newark, N. j. where the
members of Bakers Local 1877, A. F.
of L. voted to tax themselves ST a
piece for the relief of the striking
miners. The relief will take novel
but an exceedingly important form.
The Newark bakers will send their
contributions to Bakers Local A, A.
F. of L. in Pittsburgh, which will
bake from 300 to 400 loaves of bread
every day for two weeks for the min
ers and their families.

offered the strikers, only one de-
mand, the 4S hour week for all the

ing cut. The strikers committee
reported the negotiations back to the

ers decisively rejected the crumbs
thrown them and decided to remain
on strike until a real victory is won.
william Tone, the state labor
commissioner, and a reactionary Of
fetal Of the A. F., Of L. in this state
tried to get the strikers to allow him
to attend during the negotiations.
This was rejected. The move of
Tone to ave Barney Greegan, organ
izer of tie N.TW.U. excluded from

PatersonWorkers Send
Telegram to Mayor

PATERSON, N. j., Aug, 6.-Pater-
son silk strikers, themselves facing
the most savage police persecution,
sent their protest to Tony Cermak
mayor of Chicago, and Louis Emmer-
son, governor of Illinois, against the
eviction massacre last Monday night
that took the lives Of three Negro
workers, and resulted in the wound
ing and arrests of many more.
The mass meeting in Turn Hall
was held by the International Labor
Defense as a protest against the
grofing local police prosecutions In
the strike and the frame-up of five
workers on, murder charge in a
previous strike struggle. j. Louis
Engdahl, general secretary of the
LID, was the principal speaker,
calling for the widest possible mo-
bilization for Sacco-Vanzetti Day,
August %, through the linking up of
the struggle in Paterson with the
Scottsboro, Camp Kill, Amnesty, I'm
perial Valley drive of the Interna-
tional Labor Defense.
Owing TO lack Of space the Daily
Worker dropped out that part Of the
manifesto Of the International Red
Aid on Sacco-v anzetti Day, August
%, which mentioned the Imperial
Valley cases in California This
would make it appear that the I'M
perial Valley persecution had been
forgotten in the worldwide appeal
of the International Red Aid. The
manifesto specifically declared: RE

picketers demanded water for her, a
cop promised to get it but never re-
turned.
At a packed mass meeting this
morning at Turn Hall, the strikers
under the leadership Of the N.T.W.U.
heard a representative Of the Com
munist Party Herbert Benjamin,
give an effective reply to the charge
of Norman Thomas that the interests
of the workers and Of the N.T.WU.
are being subordinated to the poll
cies of the Communist Party.
He reminded the workers by con-
crete examples of how the Commu-
mist Party has been the leaders Of
the workers in every struggle during
the present crises. He reminded
them of how the A. F. of L. refused
to lead the workers, claiming that
during a depression, the workers can
make no gain. He showed them how
the Communist Party and the reYo-
lutionary unions of the Trade Union
Unity League, Of which the NTW.U.
is a part, is leading the successful
struggles right now in the mine field,
in the textile fields of Rhode Island
and Connecticut.
