II WHICH thousands OF workers Won

The theory advocated by the buro-
crscy Of the A. F. of L. that the
workers cannot win struggles during

been forced by the burocracy to in
tensified speed-up the fur workers
under the leadership # the Indus
trial Union have won wage increases,
ranging iroo 81 TO SIS per week.
Thousands of dressmakers under
the leadership OF the unity commit
tee have won partial increases and
are laying the basis for greater mass
struggles.
In the knitgoods trade which here
tofor has been completely morgan
lied, the Industrial Union is in the

campaign which has met with mass
support on the part of the knit
goods workers.
The victorious strikes OF the work
ers Of the, Murray, Art, Palace, Del
Uze, the numerous other strikes, have
inspired confidence in the workers
and have brought forth the Indus
trial Union as the leader and fighter
of the exploited workers in the knit
goods trade.

WObbIiesDid DenOunce
TOwboatman's Desir g
to Fight Wage Cuts

NEW YORK.--A committee from
the I. W. w. called on the NIarina
Workers Industrial Union to proGes,
against an alleged misquo5ation of
their position in the Dog house
Aews,' published by the Waterfront
Unemployed Council.
The Dog House News quotes
speaker on the 1. w. w. soap box as
saying that the toWDoat men were
fools if they struck at this time be-
cause there are thousands of men on
the beach ready and eager to take
their jobs" The Wobbliss claimed
that the speaker modified this state
ment with the phrase "if they were
uncrganized.' It is common informa-
ton that the towboat men are "or-
ganized into union dominated by
CAPTAIN Maher, who makes dema-
gcgic speechas and grand premises.
At the meeting Of the toWbcat men
Sunday night Maher said that only
the reds" would make trouble at his
meeting, but later made very dsma-
gogic speech and even voted to send
a telegram Of congratulaticn to the
U. S. S. r. on the opening of D1;c--
rostroi. The towboatmen at this
meeting voted to strike AGAINST wage
cuts but Maher persuaded them to let
him negotiate
The Wobblies did not enlarge on
the implied position that uaorg2nized
workers were fools to strike for de
cent working conditions or against
wage cuts.
They made grand announcement
that they had no leaders and were
not responsible for what was said on
their soapbox. They also announced
that fellow worker, Jackson, secretary
OF the M. w, l. U. would be held res
ponslble for any article attacking
their leadership, and told what tough
birds they were.
What they are afraid of is that the
Marine Workers Industrial Union is
taking energetic step to acquaint all
marine workers with what type Of
organization the I, w. w. has degen-
Grated into. The NJ. w. I. U. is taking
further steps to acuuaint all workers
on the waterfront with the positions
OF the various misled organizations
that exist on the waterfront; whether
they be the I. w. W., and its anti
strike spokesman, or M. Lovestone's
latest edition. the American Seamen
and Harbor Workers Club of 81 South
ST, or the International Longshore-
mems Association or the Furuseth
dominated International Seamen's
Union or the Associated Marine
workers, laboring under the rule of
Capt. Maher.
