WORKERS REFUSE
TO END MEETING
Police Threaten Them
But Pet Socialists

The East Side Unemployed Coun-
Gil. whose temporary headquarters are
at SIG Second Ave, yesterday broke
through the police restriction and
won a free speech fight for the right
to speak on Madison So.
Several days ago the Tammany
cops and politicians, who for the past
few months have barred and broken
up all meetings on Madison So. Of the
Unemployed Councils, Communist
Party and revolutionary mass organ
izatiCns, laid the square wide open Tor
the Socialist Party. This action Of the
corrupt Tammany machine exposes
once again the role of the Socialist
Party as the tool and lackey Of the
bosses.
Open Meeting
Tuesday at noon four members OF
the East Side Unemployed Council set
up their platform and began meet
ing on Madison So, When a cop ar
rived and tried to stop the meeting,
the workers demanded the right of
free speech. The cop made the lying
statement that no one is allowed to
speak on the square. When the work
ers insisted that the Socialist Party
has been holding meetings there reg
ularly, the cop denied this and Or
dered the workers to adjourn the
meeting
The chairman Of the meeting i'm
mediately called upon the workers in
the crowd to answer the following
three questions: Ibid you see the
Socialist Party meeting here yester-
day? 2-DO you believe in free speech?
3-Do you want the Unemployed
Council to speak?
The crowd of 500 workers an
swered all of these questions with a
loud AYE, and the chairman pro-
ceeded to introduce the next speaker,
who exposed the fake socialists" and
explained why all workers should sup
port the Communist Party.
Workers Win
The cop left with the threat that
he would call the riot squad. But al
though the Unemployed Council con-
tinued the meeting for three hours,
the riot squad did not ar
rive. This shows once again
how the workers can defeat the bank
ers' government and police by solid
arity and militant determination.
AT this meeting the workers con-
tributed $5 for $50 copies of the Hun
ger Fighter. The East Side Unem-
ployed Council announces that it will
meet again on Madison So. on Fri
day evening, october 28, and calls
upon all workers to come to the sup
port Of the meeting.

Issued against the Independent Shoe

The union was served with papers

sented by the boss and the notorious
labor or-hater, Woods, consist Of the
same lies as in previous injunctions
The strike is in full swing and the
crew stands solid in their readiness
to fight for equal division of work,
against a lay-off and wage-cuts, for
the right to be organized under
the banner of their Industrial Union.
The shoe manufacturers scab
agency, the Board of Trade, uses a
detective bureau at SO Court St. to
fool workers through advertisements
to go scabbing at the Diana.

5000 APPLAUD
RED CANDIDATE
Block Midtown Street
at Rally

More than 5000 workers blocked
36th st. between Eighth and Ninth
AYES. today at noon when they assem-
bled to hear William w. Weinstone,
Red candidate for the U. S. Senate,
as he gave the Communist election
program and discussed the situation
of the needle trades workers in the
light of the election campaign Vein
stone pointed out that the workers in
the needle trades industry have been
severely hit by the crisis.
He recalled the Governors Com
mission in 1927 which proposed to
stabilize" the industry by carrying
through a process of reorganization
which gave employers the right to
fire, which speeded up production and
which established larger productive
units. But instead the workers were
driven to the lowest level. Sweat shop
conditions became general in the in
dustry. On top Of that has come the
crisis which has made the situation
of the needle trades workers unbear-
able. he explained.
The A. F. of l.. headed by members
Of the Socialist Party had worked di-
rectly with Morris Hillquit in carry
ing through this program he said In
fact Roosevelt Lehman, A. F. of L.
officials, and socialists, together with
the New York city government under
Walker, constituted one block with
the manufacturers against the needle
trades workers.
When, therefore, Hillquit says he is
opposed to wage cuts, the sincerity of
the Socialist position can be found in
the wage cuts, speed-up and sweat
shop conditions which they helped to
bring about.
Weinstone pointed out that the
Communists in the Needle Trades in
dustry had worked side by side with
the rank and file workers to oppose
these conditions as they are today
fighting against capitalist attacks.
Weinstone showed that the collapse
Of the needle trades industry as the
collapse Of capitalist industry gener-
ally called for a change in the entire
system. This could be brought about
only by class struggle. To work CO.
operatively with the employers as the
socialists and the A. F. of L. chiefs
had done, brings only worsening sit
uation. The working class has the
power to fundamentally change the
whole system of society by establish
ment of a Workers and Farmers
Government, by taking over the in
dustries and establishing the seven
hour DAY and social insurance and by
a whole program of reconstruction on
the basis of Workers and Farmers
Government - lift themselves from
their present misery, Weinstone said

POST PRINTERS
PAY CUT NOTICE
Rank and File Must
Prepare Struggle

NEW YORK.-The notices Of II
per cent wage cut on day work and
1872 Per cent cut in wages on night
work. with partial abandonment of
priority and worsening of conditions
will be posted in all book and job
printing shops of the employers
Printers League" and probably in a
lot of others, today.
The notices will declare in effect,
beginning with the fiscal week. today
in most shops, the contract which the
bosses proposed, and which the ex-
ecutive council Of the International
Typographical Union ordered the New
York membership to accept, but
which they voted down by over
whelming majority in referendum
week ago.
In voting down the proposed con-
tract, the printers voted on another
part of the referendum ballot, by a
large majority, that they preferred
strike or lockout to the contract.
Printers Must Act.
Local officials of the union, who
have made a pretense of fighting the
wage cut but have not prepared for
strike action, said yesterday that they
we're trying to get President Howard
on the long distance telephone in In
dianapolis, but could not reach him.
In a previous case, President How
ard ruled that mere posting of wage
cut notices was not IAN overt act"
and that the union was defied only
when actual short pay was given
which, if this delay tactic is used this
time, may mean week or ten days.
The rank and file wants to fight
the wage cut. Now is its time to pre-
pare its own struggle!
