u. S. Steel Corp.
Opens Wage Cut
Drive in MOnessen

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Aug. 49,
Additional wage cuts to affect the
100000 workers in the United
States Steel Corporation began
yesterday with a slash in wages
for 1000 steel workers in the
American Sheet and Tin Plate
Mills at Monessen, Pa, a plant
owned and controlled by the U.
S. Steel Corporation. Wages were
cut from 10 to 20 per cent. Hot
mills were cut 10 to Is per cent;
cold roll men 20 per cent.
This grows out of the announce
ment a month ago that the board
of directors of the United States
Steel Corporation were in favor
of wage cuts. At the last meeting
Of the board of directors the plans
for wage cutting we're not an
nounced. Wage cuts were soon
afterwards put into effect for all
office workers. Now, without any
formal announcement, wages are
being slashed for the 100000 steel
workers in the steel plant. The
purpose of starting off by cutting
wages of the 1000 workers in the
Monessen, Pa, plant of the U. S.
Steel is to divide the steel workers
by not making the cut simultane-
Gus In all plants.
The Metal Workers Industrial
League, affiliated to the Trade
Union Unity League, has issued a
leaflet to the steel workers in
Monessen, calling on them to or
ganizc shop committees and pull
The workers out on strike against
these wage cuts, which are just
The beginning of still further wage
cuts.
The United States Steel Corp
,ration has figured out that by
'lashing wages 10 per cent for all
t workers l. will save $4,000, 900
which will be paid to the para
lite stockholders.

This statement was made by
Benjamin C. Marsh, secretary Of
the Peoples Lobby ir Washington,
closely associated with the presi-
dent of the Peoples Lobby, Prof.
John Dewey, greatly admired and
loved throughout the country.
Marsh came to San Francisco in
a hurry and went out In hurry
to keep lecture engagements else
where. In the address where he
used the story about Hoover he
gave me the impression that he
was saying things he'd repeatedly
said before and was likely to say

Hoover Admits His Aim Is

Hoover has admitted, according to
statement printed in the San

LONDON, August 18.-Following
two crowded mass meetings of min
ers at Whitehaven, the largest center
of the Cumberland coalfield, the
workers decided to disobey the union
instructions and refused to return to
work. Only nine miners out of four
thousand opposed this decision. The
meetings demanded the resignation of

Committed to Asylum
After Attempt to
Kill His Wife

Only few days ago Alabama boss
papers reported the withdrawal from
the case of Beddow Of Fort, Beddow
and Ray. Beddow had been en-
ployed by the N. A. A. C. P. leaders,
but following the failure of these
leaders to shake the faith OF a single
one of the nine boys in the Interna-
tional Labor Defense and its policy
of mass defense in support OF its
court fight, Beddow decided to with
draw.
Stephen Roddy is the attorney who
helped the Scottsboro boss court in
railroading eight Of the nine boys to
the shadow of the electric chair. He
has been denounced by all nine OF
the boys as "a traitor to our cause"
The boys reported to their parents
that Roddy had tried to get them to
plead guilty to the framed-up charge
of "raping" two professional white
prostitutes. The parents and their
boys have consistently refused to
have anything to do with this Khan
attorney or with the N. A. A. G. p:
misleaders.
When, after several weeks Of hest
tation, the N. A. A. G. P. leaders were
finally forced to make pretense Of
interesting themselves in the Scots
boro case, they announced that they
had retained Roddy as their attor-
ney. In an attempt to answer the
sharp criticism Of section OF the
Negro press and to placate the in
dignation Of the Negro masses, the
n. a. A. q. 2, then adopted Ro4dy.

3 Strikers Fined For

PATERSON, N. j., Aug. 10. - At
the mass meeting today ]. Rubin,
Secretary, gave the report of the
General Strike Committees on the
present strike situation He proposed
a general strengthening of the strike
leadership. This is particularly i'm
portant at the present time since the
strike breaking tactics of the UTW
tend to cause some Generalization
in the ranks of the strikers. Rubin
pointed out that the Strike Commit
tee must be activized more at this
critical time and the union must be
built more rapidly.
Sam Weisman of the Food Work
ers Industrial Union, spoke at the
mass meeting of the need for mil
liant picketing and the need for
picketing on more systematic basis.
He appealed to the workers to con-
tinue the militant picket lines.
Takers Get Green's OK.
The UTW has announced that Bill
Green will come to speak to the
strikers some time this week but the
date has not been announced. The
UTW- Associated A. F. of L. union
delegation with Holderman at it's
head went to see Green at Atlantic
Citv fOY. turo r1,,rr>oSnc oy,a If vtIinI,

A. F. of L. strike breaking sell out

regular" A. F. of L. method is COM
plete treachery to the working class
for the profits of the bosses.
In addition to Green, the UTW
has booked Vladeck of the yellow
Jewish Forward, which has particip-
ated in every sell out of the needle
