HOusewreckers Union
Calls All to Report
Conditions on J O b s

NEW YORK.-The newly formed
independent House Wreckers Union
states that wages in the industry now
are down to 20 cents an hour, having
been cut to this point from the SIPS
to $1.35 formerly paid, largely through
the treachery Of the officials of the
old union, Local 95 of the Hod-Car
riers and General Laborers "a. F. L.
The Eousewreckers point out that
no provision against accidents is being
made now, because if a man is killed.
the boss can always get another for
20 cents an hour.
1t calls on housewreckers to send
representatives from each job to the
union to report conditions and make
plans for struggle. 1t urges them to
elect a committee of three on each
job to conduct the strikes.
Housewreckers Union headquarters
are Room 232 in 799 Broadway.

SPREAD THE DAILY" CONFERENCE
IN NEW YORK NOVEMBER Is!
BY S. ZIEBEL
SHOE WORKERS MUST SUPPORT
THE DAILY WORKER

On November Is there will be held
at Stuyvesant Casino, 142 Second
Ave. at 10 am. a conference to work
out methods on how to improve and
increase the circulation of the Daily
Worker.
The Shoe and Leather Workers IN
oustrial Union fully endorses this
conference and calls upon the shoe
workers in the shops to elect dele
gates.
In the course OF many years Of
struggle. the shoe workers have found
in the Daily Worker a staunca sup
porter in the fight against the shoe
manufacturers.
Let us take as an example the role
of the Daily Worker in the last strike
of the I. Miller shoe workers. Due
to the exposure by the Daily Worker
of the activities of the "Constitu-
tional Educational League" the IN
ion and the strikers were able to get
rid Of this most vicious stool-pigeon
agency.
In the fight against injmctions,
the Daily Worker in its pages,
through articles and editorials, help
ed to open the eyes Of the workers
to the role and connections of the
political machine, police and courts
and the bosses.
We find that the Daily Worker does
not only supply news to the workers.
but it also serves as an organizer and
advisor in the course of struggle.
Unfortunately, the connection be-
tween the Unions. the workers in the
shops and the Daily" is not vet
close enough to enable us to utilize
the Daily Worker fully. It is the
Union which must take real efforts
to improve the Daily Worker by sup
plying to the paper information
about the activities and life of the
organization. 1t is the Union that
must help to bring the Daily Worker
into the shops to build up a corps of
shop correspondents SO as to bring
the Daily" closer to the needs Of
the workers in the shops and to en-
able it to give them timely advice.
The coming conference on Novem-
Der 10 will have to solve the pro-
blem of making the Daily" the
paper Of the shop workers and at
the same time help in raising the
political level of the workers.

Now Collecting From
Fur Bosses For The
JObless Insur. Fund

NEW YORK.-In accordance with
the agreement between the Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union and
the Fur Bosses Trimming Associa-
ton, contracted last year with re-
gard to the unemployed insurance
fund, the bosses will begin payments
this week. The firm is to contribute
an additional per cent of the entire
payroll. The fund is to be admins
tered by the workers through the
union. The agreement further pro-
vides that the money should be col
lected by the shop chairman, who are
to turn it over to a committee in
charge of the fund. The workers pay
nothing
The Industrial Union therefore calls
on all shop chairmen to begin col
lecting the money. This applies not
only to the shops Of the trimming as
ISOLATION, but independent shops as
we'll.

with suspension for non-payment Of
dues.
The Committee says:
Most of the unions nowadays do
not do anything to obtain relief for
their unemployed members. On the
contrary, oppose such vitally neces-
sary measures as unemployment in
surance. At the same time they ex-
pect to enforce dues payments and
assessments as in prosperity days
Only few Of the better situated or
CARNATIONS extend any kind of SOL
idarity help to their members and
this is in danger of being cut down
or eliminated altogether"

CENTRALIA, Ill, May 16.-Fire,
which started from three terrific ex-
plosions Of undetermined origin in a
furniture store here early yesterday, de-
stroyed seven business buildings, dam
aged four others and for time threat
ened the entire business district.
The flames were brought under con-
troll after three hours, with an esti-
mated loss of more than $500,000.
Four firemen were burned slightly
while fighting the flames.
Seven large brick buildings were de-
stroyed, and four others. including the
Centralia Sentinel Building, were bad
ly damaged. Flying embers, carried
by high wind, ignited buildings as
far as three blocks away.
Sixteen business establishments were
wiped out. Fire departments from
Mount Vernon, Salem, Carlyle and
Sandoval responded to calls for aid.
Police authorities said an investiga-
ton would be conducted to learn the
