agitating among the men on strike
through a special crew of suckers
and Monday and Tuesday held small
meetings of strikers, $50 out of the
thousand on strike. The temper of
these meetings, however, was SO heat
ed against the return to work under
a 10 per cent wage cut, but with a
minimum wage of $18 for men and
sliding scale for women, that no
vote was taken. The company is call
ing another meeting for Tuesday
night. At any rate, the Lawrence
Evening Tribune Tuesday night runs
an enormous headline: Ballots BY
Two Mills"
Some person not named made an
announcement over the radio Mon
day night that militia was to be
sent into the Lawrence strike.
All these events are piling up on a
foundation of the sell out agreement
arrived at by the A. F. L. and U.T.W.
chiefs in the Copely-Plaza hotel in
Boston with Governor Ely last Thurs
day, which has been exposed Tues
day by front page display in the
Daily Workers and by distribution of
thousands of mimeographed leaflets.
The terror side of it comes along
after the lynching editorial in the
Sunday Leaders last issue.
AS an answer to all this, the picket
lines Tuesday morning were musu-
ally large for Tuesday. Without scabs,
the Lawrence workers have fallen
into the habit of picketing in thou
sands Monday morning, just to start
the week right, and then letting the
lines dWindle rapidly to few hun
dreds the rest of the week. This Tues
day, the lines were almost as large as
on Monday, and picketing was just
as militant.
The exposure of the Copley- Plaza
strike breaking plot is making
sensation on the streets and wher-
ever the strikers gather. The meet
ing at Lincoln Court lot Tuesday
was exceptionally large, although
these meetings have been growing
in size steadily for the last several
days. Fully 1900 massed on the lot
to cheer approval of Strike Leaders
Biedenkapp, Anna Burlak and Con-
roy of the national board of the
National Textile Workers.
Conroy told Of the shutting down
Biedenkapp scored the common
practice in Lawrence of charging
those arrested on the picket line
with yagrancy.
The parks of Lawrence were full of
starving unemployed, even before the
strike, and the police just let them
Starve.
Burlak received great ovation.
Lawrence strikers know her of old.
The policy of the National Textile
Workers Union is to unite all the
49, 900 Lawrence strikers under their
own elected Rank and File Strike
Committee, she declared. eff you
were fighting with man, you
wouldn't just poke him with one fin
ger. Organize those fingers, all to-
gether into one iron fist, and carry
on the fight to victory!"
Arbitration is knife to cut your
wages" said Burlak. "It isn't any
better for you because it comes with
pretty ribbon tied around it,"

Must Intensity Struggle
AS was pointed out by the Com
munist candidates during the cam
paign, the struggle against the hun
ger programs of the bosses is not
merely an election issue. Wage-cuts
can only be stopped, unemployment
insurance can only be won, by or
ganized mass action Of the working
class in the factories and on the
streets. The struggle for Negro
rights, the fight against evictions, the
mass struggle against war and for the
defense Of the Soviet Union, the fight
for the release Of the political pris-
oners, the war against capitalism goes
on under the firm leadership OF the
Communist Party. The workers who
voted Communist, the thousands
whose votes were stolen, the thous-
ands who were denied the right to
vote and tens OF thousands more who
are awakening to the role Of the cap
italist parties will march during the
coming month in every state,
exposing the fake relief pro-
gram OF the capitalist parties, de-
manding real relief for the millions
Of Jobless. Answer the Tammany
vote stealers by giving your support
to the National Hunger March to
Washington on December 7.

When the committee was in for
about an hour, then vote was taken
that the committee come out in Is

Wisconsin Jobless Prepare Marches
MILWAUKEE, Wis. - The Unem-
ployed Councils of Wisconsin are be-
ginning to show signs of intensified
activities - preparation for the Ma
tional Hunger March to Washington,
and the special session of the State
Legislature. All means of social de-
magogy is being employed by the La
Follettes and Socialists" mayors
Hoan and Swaboda. The socialists"
are organizing in Milwaukee a La
Dor Unemployed Action Council,
they are taking over all our issues
and demands. Lafollette is calling a
special session of the legislature to
start on November IT, and to last
for about month, on unemployment
and banking. All this, of course, is
empty talk which will give nothing
to the unemployed workers.
AS against these takers, steps are
being taken by the Unemployed
Councils to mobilize workers and
their organizations for the National
Hunger March and for a mass de-
legation to Madison to the Legislat-
ure.
Call Many Conferences
The Milwaukee County Conference
on Unemployment Insurance will be
held November Is, Labor Temple, 300
Walnut Street; Racine, County, Mon

IL, Hungarian Hall, 2132 Racine st.
These conferences and public hear
ings will prepare for Hunger Marches
on a county scale to be held in Ra-
cine, Nov. II, and same date in Mil
waukee. These activities are con-
nected with concrete work amongst
the unemployed with the taking down
of dozens of workers to the various
relief agencies. 1t is through the
fight for immediate relief that these
fake socialists and progressive poll
ticians are being exposed, and work
ers modified for struggle.
The Racine Unemployed Branches
within one week investigation found
over 100 cases of actual starvation,
many of whom have bsen taken down
to the Central Association and relief
gotten for them. The same is being
done in Milwaukee, West Allis, Ken
osha.

Protest at Relief" Station
Five hundred demonstrated Mon
day morning at the Racine relief
station for which a permit had been
granted, which the socialist" police
chief had several times refused. After
presenting their demands for relief,
over one hundred marched through
Main Street to the Workers Center
where a meeting was held and COM
mittees elected.
PORTLAND, Ore.-Over four hun
dred workers attended a demon
strationa outside the Benson Hotel
here, October 81, demanding that the
third annual Western governors con-
ference, release class-war prisoners
and give immediate unemployment
relief.
The demonstration was called by
the Communist Party, Unemployed
Council and International Labor De-
Tense. Five delegates from each Or
ganization received the unanimous
approval of the workers, assembled
to go in as a committee presenting
the demands.
Present Demands
The governors representatives met
the delegation and told them that
there was no room for them. Then,
when he heard the speaker outside
receiving loud approval from the
workers, he said that three workers
would be admitted. The delegation
came back and reported this. The
workers voted to send all the del
egates back, Then the governors al
lowed five workers of the delegation
to come in.
Fred Walker, spokesman for the
delegation, laid down the demands
approved by the workers. The gov
errors listened and then tabled the
demands. The delegation, seeing that
the governors, had no intention of
answering the workers, came out and
reported. The Evening Journal re-
ported that the governors invited
the delegation" Four hundred work
ers know betterl
The governors, after Walker had
spoken, started a TRADE about
"IWW's," invading their conference.
Outside, the workers, who had waited
over two hours, roared approval of
the appeal to join the revolutionary
organizations. Over hundred
marched back to the Workers Hall
and several joined the LID and one
worker made application for the
Party.

Letter received by Thad Windsor
from an old fur house with which he
has been dealing for years:
"Why not go after the tanning
business right while furs are low in
price and lots of people are having
their skins tanned and made up
rather than sell them. Chokers are
going to be popular again. Interest
your friends and customers in hav-
ing chokers made while they can
get raw skins. They can save 4036
to 500. This is going to be a good
season, too, for custom made fur
coats. Muskrats are cheap and a
person can get fine coat for about
$125.O0 including cost of raw skins
and making, complete and we guar
antee fit to be satisfactory and any
style the customer may select Also

rugs, etc"
