BALTIMORE, June 30.-A number
of the Baltimore banks have adopted
receipts in place of counter checks

not negotiable as is a check and is
simply acknowledgment by the deposi-
tor that he has received the sum speci-
fed from his bank.

NEEDLE WORKERS
MODELLING FOR
MAY DAY MEET
Call Workers to Take
Up May Day in
Shops

NEW YORK.-At a meeting of the
Executive Council and trade commit
tee of the Industrial Union, elaborate
plans were laid for mobilizing the
masses of the needle trades workers
for the May Day demonstration. 1t
was decided that all trade unions
should work out slogans and banners
dealing with the problems confront
ing them in the trade A large band
will be hired by the union for the
needle trade section.
Open air meetings are being ar
ranged throughout the market to
bring the May Day message before
the needle trades workers. Special
trade leaflets and resolutions en-
dorsing the United Front May dem
onstration are being issued. The
Council decided to issue a special
appeal to the members of the Inter
national, of the Joint Council, the
Amalgamated, and Cap and Millinery
Workers, calling on them to demon
strate on May i together with the
revolutionary workers, and not with
the bureaucrats who have betrayed
everything that May Day stands for.
These workers are called upon to
join in mass the United Front May
demonstration and thus express their
opposition to the class collaboration
policies, to the policy of injunctions,
frame-ups, pursued by the officials
of their respective unions, while
working hand with hand with the
yellow socialist bureaucratS to sell
out the conditions of the workers,
and to deSecrate May Day which is
a da yof mobilization for struggle
against the bosses.
AL workers are called upon to
take up the question of May Day in
their shops and mobilize every
needle trade worker to march to-
gether with the needl trades Sec

monstration at 10th Street and Fifth
Ave, Ben Tucker, of the Red Spark
A. c., led field of SO runners to
win the Scottsboro7 Mooney Street
run on Saturday, April IL.
The run, planned under the direc-
ton of the Vesa A. G. and sanction
ed by the Eastern District Counter
Olympic Committee, covered a
stretch of approximately two and
a half miles. So bruising was the
competition that one of the competi-
tors, a Negro athlete. collapsed at
the finish, while Ben Tucker was
forced to exert himself to sprawl
across the finish line the winner. His
time was 10 min. rs seconds. G.
Turkia of the Vesa A. G. came in
second in 1928, while MacGordon. Of
the Bronx Park Youth Club, finished
third in 1929.
A feature of the run was the Of
fering Of a club prize in the form of
silver cup to the club placing the
most athletes among the first fifteen.
This was won by the F.UFA.C.. a

ANNOUNCE CANDIDACY OF FOSTER,
JAMES FORD, AMTER AT BANQUET

Over one thousand workers and
representatives of Communist units
and mass organizations were present
at mass banquet Friday night held
to greet the fiftieth birthday of Com
rade Amter, District Organizer of
District 2 of the Communist Party.
The spirit and program Of the
gathering was full of revolutionary
enthusiasm and at the same time
it was a mobilization to further the
activities to which Comrade Amter
has devoted 80 years of hsi life. There
we're few very impressive scenes
at the banquet which aroused the
revolutionary spirit to its highest
pitch. These were when CoInrade
Browder, Central Committee repre-
sentative of the Communist Party, in
his very ANALYTICAL speech, pointing
out the immediate war situation and
our concrete tasks, stated that Com
rade Foster, James Ford and Israel
Amter will be the Party standard
bearers in the coming Election Cam
paign, with Comrade Amter as can
didate for Governor of the State of
New York on the Communist ticket.
This brought the workers to their
feet, singing the International and
cheering the announcement with
stormy applause.
Another impressive scene was
when Mrs. Wright, mother of two
of the Scottsboro victims, Andy and
Roy Wright, IA and II years old,
rose to speak Mrs. Wright will tour
the European countries to mobilize
the workers in support OF the strug-
gle against the lynch trial of the
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1932-04-19

Scottsboro boys The workers pre-
sent cheered wildly and expressed
determination to fight against the
mapped out plan of the bosses to
burn the Scottsboro boys in the ell
ectric chair on May 13. Among the
speakers at this gathering we're
Comrade Browder, Gilbert, District
Organizer of Chicago, Roy Hudson,
organizer of the Marine Workers In
dustrial Union, and the 70-year old
revolutionary leader, Mother Bloor,
from the west, who received an end
less ovation and delivered her fiery
address. And then Comrade Amter
himself who in his speech declared
that this banquet is not in honor of
one individual, but is an expression
Of the workers who came here, of
their devotion and recognition of the
revolutionary role of the Communist
Party in carrying on the struggle of
the working class and training and
developing the revolutionary leaders
of the working class for the over
throw of the bourgeoisie. Comrade
Amter stressed the immediate tasks
that are before the Party and the re-
evolutionary workers, linking up these
struggles with the broad Election
Campaign approaching wide masses
of the workers. Comrade Joe Brods-
ky was POSTMASTER of the banquet.
In the musical program, the WIR,
band participated, the Proletbuhne
gave some excellent mass recitations,
Comrade Phil Bard of the John Reed
Club drew cartoons and created
great enthusiasm among the workers
gathered.

and file of longshoremen, be the
only ones to represent them.
All during the strike the Negro
ongShoremen stood shoulder to
shoulder with the white workers in
their determination to win. The
bosses, however, in in attempt to
split the unity Of the white and
Negro workers, hired both Negro and
white scabs, many Of whom did not
know that there was strike on. The
Negro scabs were put to work on
dock 4s. This dock was formerly
worked by white workers alone. The
strikers must understand that this
move is scheme to split the unity
of the ranks of the longshoremen.
1t has been learned that the
shipping bosses are planning a mass
layoff in connection with the wage
cut. Ryan demagogically speaks about
the wage-cut but says nothing about
the reducing of the wages.
At the meeting held yesterday by
Ryan on the waterfront it took near
ly two hours for Ryan to explain why
his salary was increased from $4,000
to $4,000 a year. The best answer he
could give the lockers was that he
would be sucker If he did not take
it.
Ryan then dragged in priest who
said God would not help wage-cut-
ters. All efforts were made by the
I. L. A. officials to muzzle discussion,
but workers continued to demand
that the strikers elect a rank and
file committee. Workers who took the
floor and demanded mass picketing
to stop the scabs were enthusiastically
applauded.
The Marine Workers Industrial
Union calls on the strikers to take
steps at once to take the strike in
their own hands by electing a rank
and file strike committee and to
commence mass picketing before the
the docks.
