TextileWorkers: Build the National
Textile Workers Union!

of all workers for building the National Textile
Workers Union and winning our struggles
against the bosses.
What can the workers in the Royal expect now7
Joe OFT, the most vicious labor expoiter, will ex-
tend the box-loom cut-down to the other depart
ments Already the plain loom weavers have re-
ceived a cut on one style of cloth Heavier fines
will be imposed on all weavers. Conditions will
be made worse all over the mill. Workers in the
Royal Weaving must remember how the National
Textile Workers Union won two victories in the
Royal before the strike Last January we stopped
the 10 per cent general cut which Joe OFT tried
to put over at that time Later we partially
stopped a cut in mill of the Royal. The new
cuts now planned by OFT can be stopped the
same way.
In all other mills of the Blackstone Valley the
bosses will now be encouraged to cut wages IN
doubtedly the employers will attempt to revive
the UTW-the union" of Mr.. John Powers
as part of their plans to drive out of the mills
the only union that fights for the textile work
ers-the National Textile Workers Union.
Against these plots of the boss class to impose
starvation and slave conditions upon the work
ers, we must fight harder than ever. In every
mill we must strike more effectively and more
powerfully than ever against every wage-cut or
speed-up. We can do this only through the union.
In every mill there must be organized fighting
mill local of the National Textile Workers Union.
To do this every militant worker must immedi-
ateIy get in touch with the NTWU Headquarters
for advice and help.
This fight has already started. Led by the
NTWU the workers of the Taylor silk mill in
Pawtucket have last week won their strike for
an increase in wages; they have gone back to
work with their mill committee recognized by
the boss and all workers members of the NTWU.

groups of workers have joined the union duriug
the past week and. are preparing for action. j.
the Royal Weaving too Our fighting union Is
going right ahead with its work to organize be-
ter for the new struggles that are bound to COM
in that mill.
All workers must understand that the General
Fabrics strike must now be given greater support
than ever. The General Fabrics strike can be
won if We do this. Let us show the General Fab
RIGS strikers who have fought heroically for over
three months, our mass solidarity!
The National Textile Workers Union is pre-
pairing great conference of delegates from all
mills in the Blackstone Valley. Workers in every
mill will shortly be called upon to get together
and elect their delegates. This Mill Delegates
Conference will make broad plans for developing
the struggle for the workers interests on a mass
scale
