MOSCOW.-Soviet industry will
call for many more workers during
the coming year. A conference re-
Gently held here took up the ques-
ton of drawing 100000 more
women workers into industry.
Contrary to the situation in all
capitalist countries where millions
are unemployed and women work
ers are hired to displace men at
lower wages, the employment Of
women workers in the Soviet
Union is the result of the abolition
of unemployment.
Women workers are hired on the
basis of strict equality with men
and equal pay for equal work is a
reality.
The Peoples Commissariat Of
Labor announces that provision
will be made to train 100000 wom-
en- workers and to tee h 100000
girls in the apprentices schools
during this year alone.
At the same time the govern
ment and the trade unions are
making plans to relieve women of
the drudgery of homework and
providing adequate and expert
care for the children. The most
important measures to be taken
towards this end are the opening
of new nurseries, extension of the

Today, more than ever before, the
capitalist politicians are working
hard to win the support and vote
of, the women. In the past cam
paigning among women during cleo
tions was seldom done and then
merely among the women of the
upper classes. 1t is not a coinci-
dent that with the drawing into in
dustries permanently of more and
more women the capitalist class be-
gan to interest itself in the question
of winning the women ideologically.
Women's magazines, newspaper
pages for women, women's jour-
nails, etc, which were written for
the women of the working class
used to deal almost entirely with
the domestic problems, child rails
ing, love inquiries and recipes.
In the last few years, however,
these magazines and newspapers
began to propaganda the women,
to develop bourgeois political ideol-
ogy among the women. Even the
sensational confessional magazines
(True Story, etc. began to have
editorials as well as story plots that
spread bourgeois theology, dealt
with political questions from a
bourgeois approach, attacked the
working class movement and par
ticularly the Communists. They
particularly carry on an theological
fight against the Soviet Union by
the most blood curdling tales of
horrors committed there.
In the elections today there is an
intensified and distinctly political
appeal to the women. In the last
gubernatorial elections women were
put up for office. There are mass
meetings Of women called during
the campaign, street meetings are

Dress Strike
Aims to End
Sweatshop

Neither police brutality or COM
pany thugs have been able to halt
the militancy of the New York and
Philadelphia dressmakers, on strike
under the leadership of the Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union
since Tuesday, February II.
The dress strike marked the be-
ginning of an offensive of the
needle trades workers against the
merciless wage cuts, inhuman
speed-up, discrimination and slav-
cry forced upon the workers by the
bosses and their agents of the A..
F. of L. company union.
The response to the strike came
rot only from the workers of the
union and open shops, but from
many of the comany union shops.
Despite all the threats, despite the
terrorism of the bosses, and the
agents. of the A. F. of L. company
union, the dressmakers realized
that they must mot any longer sub
nit to these disgraceful conditions,
that they cannot hope for any i'm
provements of their standards by
depending on the mercy of the
bosses or the company union, which
the workers have come to know
as an instrument brazenly serving
the interests of the bosses.
The. militant traditions of the
dressmakers in the early struggles
of. 1907 when the greatest NUM-
Der of workers were Jewish, are
continued by the new workers en-
ployed in the idustry today. The
American, the Jewish, the Spanish,
Italian and Negro workers are
fighting side by side on the picket
line, against the thugs, and the
police in the same militant manner

Working Women in the
Chi. Mayoralty Elections

frequently held, literature circu-
lated for women, special publicity
in the press, etc. -
In the mayoralty campaign in
Chicago the democratic party is
carrying on a very extensive cam
paign among the women. The Chi
cago Tribune, in an article under
the heading, feminine Voices Are
Heard Above the Din of the City
Campaign" states IN its opening
paragraph:
"The women folk are taking
their place alongside of the men
in the mayoralty campaign.
These divisions (women) are not
used for social purposes. They
are not filled with soft flutter-
ing feminine conversation. They
are humming with purposeful
plans to help their candidates"
AS part OF the Thompson cam
paign to win the Negro vote in the
city, the Thompson's women's divi-
sion addressed a group of Negro
women in the Hotel Sherman. The
approach to the Negro women was
by appealing to the dramatic in the
Negro women. Mrs. Smith, Com
missioner of Public Welfare ap-
pointed by Thompson, said that
Mayor Thompson stood for love-.
that his every heartbeat understood
humanity. She recited poetry such
as:
For Christ again has preached
to thee
The blessings Of humanity"
And so on for each capitalist
politician there are women who de-
vote their time and energy to win
ming the vote of the women for the
capitalist parties, these women con-
shutting so-called "Women's Divi-
sions's Of this or that given party.
