Arrangements sped in both
senate and house to do his bidding

giving to the executive branch of

banks for protection of depositors;
authority forthwith to open such
banks as already have been as

ton and other such banks as
rapidly as possible.
Authority to reorganize and

| Dear Editor:
! You sure hit the nail on the head
when you said, in reference to

Leon H. Rouse, president of Blk Six,
is legalist politician You might
also have included reference to the
Rouse tradition: 81 have fooled the
membership for 16 years and I could
fool en- for another 16."
While president of Big Six, he was
reelected term after term by the
employer controlled vote of the small
job shops. He never carried his own
chapel (The World, or any other
newspaper chapel.
He was finally defeated, however,
in 1890. And while being groomed for
the race in the last election, he re-
ceived 5000 income weekly from
contribution list which was quickly
circulated among his supporters.
He never called strike in sixteen
years.
He threatened TO OUTLAW" the Eva
cation" movement in 1919, then after
it succeeded in spite of him, he
claimed to have been on the picket
lines He played second fiddle for
the International while at the same
time doubling for the publishers.

about the MIRA personnel, go to any

Union" Eastman
Affirms Principle of
Open Shop in Letter
to R.R. Executives

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7. - Under
cover of attacking company unions,
Joseph B. Eastman, Roosevelt-ap-
pointed railroad co-ordinator, today
made it clear in a statement to rail-
road executives that company unions
have the legal right to exist side by
side with workers unions.
After pointing out that the roads,
under the Railway Labor Act, are not
empowered to make membership in a
company union q prerequisite for
employment, Eastman declared that,
"these provisions do not prohibit any
particular variety of labor organiza-
ton, but they do give the employees
absolute freedom of choice in joining
such organizations -"
Eastman's objections apply to
written, or open requests of the roads
to their employees to join the COM
pany unions. They cannot have any
effect on the scores of intangible
methods of coercion and intimidation
But even more significantly, East
mans principle of complete free
dom of choice" carries within it all
the essentials of the open shop policy,
since a truly closed, union shop can
not be maintained unless the workers
unions can demand complete workers
membership.
In a statement the other day,
Eastman also requested that the
railroads apply the "stagger plan"
to their employees, thus a plan which
will further reduce the present $780,
1000 yearly average earnings of rail-
road employees.

NEW YORK. - can industrial
racketeer."
This was the charge made against
Matthew Vol, vice-president of the
American Federation of Labor, by
Irving Nader, capitalist, in a COM
plant filed with newspaper. The
complaint was later backed up by an
attorney for the operating engineers
union, Owen S. M. Tierney. Matthew
Woll is charged with having used his
affiliations with the NRA and with
the A. F. of L. to build his Union
Labor Life Insurance business.
Agents of Mr.. VOLTS life insurance
company have been tracking down
good prospects and making appoint
ments for Mr.. Woll to see them with
out informing them of the purpose of
the visit. Instead of Mr.. Vol, says
Nader who cancelled all appoint
ments to meet this labor faker, a life
insurance salesman appeared with a
letter signed by Matthew Vol asking
him "for few minutes time to dis
cuss a work in which the American
Federation of Labor and the labor
movement generally is interested"
Matthew Wall, when confronted
with the complaint admitted that he
has received similar complaints be-
fore. He expects to cover himself by
firing the agent.
Tierney, who has conducted the
case of the operating engineers
union against Patrick Comerford its
racketeering head and succeeded in
ousting him stated that he too had
received a visit from VOLTS agent
after Woll and Green had fought to
retain Comerford in the union. He
said he thought it "a pretty cheap
stunt" on VOLTS part.
Rank and file members of the A.
F., of L. know that Matthew Woll's
jingoism is cover for more racket
eering than this report discloses.

Campaign Against Needle Trades Industrial Union

| NEW YORK.-The campaign OF
the fur bosses and the Socialist
A. F. of L. fur union, which has
been dormant for few weeks, fol-
lowing the decisive defeat of their
efforts to force the fur workers
into the A. F. of L. and destroy the
fur workers section of the Needle
Trades Workers Industrial Union,
has revived. Nt
The latest maneuvre of these
combined forces is contained in a
slanderous leaflet issued by the
Joint Council of the A. F. of L. fur
union charging the Needle Trades
Union with "betraying the workers"
on the issue of the 35 hour week
and calling for zone true union
in the fur trade" The leaflet
blazoned in the pages of the
Forward" Jewish Socialist daily
declares that the paper A. F. of L.
union has "won the 35 hour week
while the Needle Union is blocking
it."
The facts of the 35-hour week
campaign are known to the fur
workers, the majority of whom are
members of the Industrial Union
and Loyalty support it. 1t was the
Industrial Union and not these
demssogic splitters who started the
