is scheduled to leave on Thursday
February 26th, the hunger march
from New York City to the state
capitol will also start on the same
day.
The march to Albany had been
previously set for February 18th, but
in order to time the arrival of the
two groups at the capitol at the same
time, it was decided to have them
both begin the nlarchc on the same
day.
This gives added time for better

The dressmakers have a long

ways being in the vanguard of
every fight in the needle trades
for improved conditions and it Is
expected that this strike as well viii
be signalized by most determined
battle to eliminate sweat shop con-

The dressmakers are among the
most exploited of all workers, being
forced to slave 10, IL and IL hours
day for wages that average SIS, $13
and $40 a week.
Their unbearable working condi-
tons have been made worse in the
past year by new speed-up systems,
longer hours, lower wages and firing
for any or no reason. Although pro-
duction figures show that dressnakers
produce almost twice as much as they

CARPENTER UNION
HEADS NEGOTIATE
FOR WAGE CUTS
DELEGATES Reject IT.;
Fight Is Needed

NEW YORK.-The predictions OF
the Trade Union Unity League men,
berS in the carpenters union that
the bosses would declare wage-cut
is now a reality. The association Of
the manufacturers of architectural
cabinet work declared wage-cut Of
81 25 per hour. That means $40 in
stead of 1920 a day.
The action Of the association, which
signed an agreement with the New
York District Council of Carpenters,
means the beginning of an official
wage-cut in the building industry.
Unofficially the carpenters and cab
inetmakers have been working for as
low as Sc and ST a day. The present
action of the association is only an
acknowledgement Of this fact.
The association demanded the cut
two weeks ago. The general vice.
president of the brotherhood came to
New York. and, together with the
chiefs of the District Council, nego-
tiated the wage-cut with the bosses.
Last Wednesday, at the meeting Of
the New York District Council, the
officers reported the negotiations In
such way that it was clear that the
reactionary leadership of the union
is in favor of the cut. But the ma
jority of the delegates, despite the
bluff about giving more work, re-
jected the report of the negotiation
committee.
The carpenters must rally around
the program Of the It. U. U. L. and
declare relentless fight, not only on
the corrupt leadership of the Carpen-
ters' Brotherhood, but also the agents
Of the leadership, the fake progress
sives, Morelly, Haltcamp g. Co, who
are protecting the reactionary Dis
trict Council trade rules, bylaws and
agreements instead of fighting them.
