'tor the council Oh Peoples CommlS-

trail Committee of the Communist
Party, enables million more mem
bers Of collective farms to each OBJ
tain cow for personal use.
The government is buying mill
lion calves, which will be supplied
on a years credit to collective farm
ers who still have no cows of their
own.
These cows are supplied irrespec-
tive of the fact that most collective
farms already have collective dairies
attached to them, since much of the
products of these diaries are sold to
the cities.
Collective Farms Grow in Strength
"What is the picture today in our
collective farms?" writes Pravda.
"They grow and strengthen year by
year, month by month. Millions of
collective farmers are already mus
tered for the new form, and by new
collective methods of socialist pro-
duction, they have learned to dis
tinguish the enemies of collective
farms and struggle against them,
cleaning the ranks of hostile ele-
ments, improving discipline, under
taking to introduce order into the
collective farms, more strictly
watching the quality of work, and
in one or two years, the results
were evident.
"This year the collective farms
obtained big harvest. Grain de-
liveries to the state are going well.
The income of the collective farm
ers has been considerably increased.
Socialist industry is preparing more
and more goods.
''The number of tractors, COM
bines, automobiles and agricultural
machines in the villages is increas-
ing every day. 1t follows from this
that next year the collective farms
can obtain still higher harvests than
this year.
"Still clearer burns the flame of
labor enthusiasm, competition and
shock work. The collective farms
will undertake still more energetic.

Dress Strikers to Stay
Out ntiIPrices Are Fixed
Strikers Approve Price Committees to Establish
Rates at Needle Union Meetings; Big
Delegation Sent to Code Hearings

NEW YORK. - While announce
ments Of strike settlement were
made and so-called vote was taken
yesterday at the Armory and Webster
Hall, thousands of dress strikers led
by the Needle Trades Workers In
dustrial Union approved a decision of
the general strike committee to re-
main in their strike halls elect their
price committees and refuse to go
back to work unless prices are estab-
lished according to the demands
placed by the price committees.
That more thousands of dress
strikers will follow this example is
evident from the announcement that
huge meeting will be held at Cooper
Union called by the rank and file OPP
position in the ILGWU at 8 p. m. to-
day to prepare to enforce the de-
mands for which they struck.
Their strike hall flanked with po-
lice, IGWU officials hustled their re-
ports through on the strike SETTLE
ment" yesterday at big meetings at
the Armory and Webster Hall with
on permitting any expression of rank
and file opinion. 1t is known that
these large halls were obtained to pre-
vent the possibility of questioning by
the dress strikers. When the workers
rose to demand the floor for a dis
cusSion of the terms of settlement,
they were forced to sit down and
guerillas posted at intervals in the
aisles saw to it that the International
officials policy Of jamming the strike
settlement down the workers threats
would be carried out.
Dubinsky, president of the Inter-
national in his address to the workers
made the Needle Trades Workers IN
duStrial Union the chief target of
attack and hailed his alliance with
Whalen and the bosses. When an
nouncement was made that Grover
Whalen clubber of the unemployed
was to speak, strikers rose from their
seats and started a movement to-
wards the doors. The chairman then
ordered the police to bar the doors to
prevent anyone from leaving the hall.

just as they hailed the scientific

sweatshop conditions for the dress
makers. When the vote on the terms
of settlement was finally taken one
half of the strikers are reported to
have refused to rise.
Police protected the ILGW officials
but dispersed an open air meeting
called by the Needle Trades Workers

Buffalo Steel Men
Win Raise in Pay
by Threat to Strike
Doner Plant Dept Is
Organized in Steel,
Metal Union

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 2l.-Five-
cents an hour increase was won by
determined action in the chipping
department of the Bonner Plant of
the Republic Steel Co. here.
This affects from 500 to 700 men.
This raise is supposed to make pos
sible earnings of 551s cents an hour
on tonnage payment, with a guaran-
teed minimum of As cents on the
basis of the day scale.
The department committee had
demanded 6212 cents an hour, and
gave the company until four o'clock
Monday to answer. The settlement
was speeded up by walkout of 200
clippers of the day turn on Friday.
The department is IS per cent or
ganized in the Steel and Metal
Workers Industrial Union.
This first victory in years was the
result of organization, and has made
a great impression in all Bonner
plant departments with their 1890
workers.
It will doubtless have a big effect
in spreading organization throughout
the district.
There will be a big mass meeting
of union members of the Bonner
plant next Sunday to hear reports of
the committee. Admission is by card
only.

Dana Long Active in
Fight to Save
Workers
BY CARL REEVE

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Aug, 21.-An
Interview with Prof. Henry Wads-
worth Longfellow Dana who took an
active part in the international cam
paign to prevent the judicial murder
of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo VAN
zetti brought to light a number of
significant letters from Vanzetti.
These letters, Dana believes, have
never before been published.
Dana was familiar with all the
intimate aspects of the Sacco- VAN
zetti frame-up and was a close friend
Of both workers and their families.
A short time after Sacco and Van
zetti were murdered in the electric
chair in Charlestown Prison, Dana
paid a visit to Vanzetti,s aged pa
rents in Villafalletta, Italy.
The first letter was written In
italian by Vanzetti IS days before he
and Sacco were executed. From its
contents, 1t appears to have been

Vanzetti Knew Nature

Justice"

standing Of the fate that Massachu-
sets bosses "justice" held out to them
and his strong feeling of the interna-
tional solidarity Of the workers.
The last letter, written in English,
was composed exactly three months
before Sacco and Vanzetti were ex-
ecuted. 1t too has never before been
published. 1t is noteworthy that here
Vanzetti shows that not for mo-
ment was he taken in by the illusion
that the ruling bodies OF Massachu-
sets would give him justice. Gov.
Fuller wrote, as Vanzetti remarks in
this letter, an article in favor of the
death penalty in the Success" mag
azine the previous December, and
Vanzetti felt that Fuller had the
Sacco-Vanzetti case in mind The
letter was written while Prof. Dana
was touring Europe on their behalf.
1t was received by him in Paris.

Johnson Rushing
Ccal Slave Code,
Similar to Steel
16 Operators Groups
to Get Plenty of
Leeway on Unions

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Gen-
eral johnson is meeting with Is
different groups of coal operators
in an effort to rush through a code
for the soft coal industry within
the next three days.
This action follows the adoption
of the steel. oil and lumber codes,
and it is the view here that the
coal code will be on the order of
the steel trust code.
Some of the coal operators are
in favor of recognizing the UMWA,
while others are for the open shop
or company unions. The Roose-
welt regime will draw code that
will permit the operators to do as
they please on company unions or
the UMWA, and give them plenty
of leeway to hold wages down.
