Shoe Strike of 70
Sharpens AS Boss
Hires Scab Agents

NEW YORK. - The strike of 70
workers in the Martin & Weinstein
Shoe Co. is becoming sharper with
the attempt Of the bosses to break it
by hiring professional scabs.
The four filters who scabbed on the
workers are: Hynan and Ely Wal
ZACH, 174l Sterling Pl., Morris David
off, 1851 e. 4th St., and Frank Kon-
efIsky, 1855 Sheffield Avenue, all OF
Brooklyn.
The United Front Strike Commit
tee urges the shoe workers to expose
these scabs in their neighborhoods.
The strikers are also appealing to
all shoe workers in their shops and
organizations to collect relief for the
needy strikers and their families, es-
pecially food, which may be left at
union headquarters, SO Fifth Avenue,
or at the strike headquarters, 80
Adams ST., Brooklyn.

The demonstration which was led
by the fighting Waterfront Unem-
ployed Council and endor"ed by the
Marine Workers Industri Il Union,
demanded that the Haigh Gmergen-
ey Committee continue the relief
collected for the aGsE1 -; that the
Jane Street "Y" mission be kept open,
and other demands.
A committee sent in by the de-
monsuation was given evasive an
sWers to these demands. Another
committee was sent to the Home Re-
lief Bureau. Following the demon
sCration, police raided the Seamen's
Club Restaurant, searching everyone
in the place and a2resting friedrich
Liedke and Edward Travor, two sea-
men, for not having their papers.
They were held on suspicion. One
seaman was handled roughly for
having radical literature with him.
The police destroyed the literature.

Call for Sharper
Fight on Cuts

WASHINGTON, March %, - The
Veterans National LiaisOn Commit
tee, a rank and lille group represent
ing the sentiments Of the overUhel-
ming ma jority of the veterans of this
country, today issued d statement eE-
posing the fact that the Roosevelt
economy bill plans rot only to reduce
the veterans benefits, but to prac-
tically eliminate them entirely Tor
hundreds Of thousands Of disabled
vets and their dependents. The state
ment calls on all veterans ana vet
Grams organizations to swing into
action against the cuts and prepare
for the march to Washington May Il,
The VNL,C. statement declares in
part:
1.-THE statement has often been
made that the government is now
spending over a billion dollars year
on its veterans; that therefore the
government should slash these eX-
penditures by $3.50. 100000, or by about
one-half of the supposed benefits.
Proof in Congressional Record
persons making these statements
should be referred to the Congress
ional Record for Saturday, Dec. 10,
1882, pages 29l-30O The total eX-
penditmes of the Veterans Admin
istration during the fiscal year 1882,
as shown in this Record. were S812,-
449,394. This figure includes al forms
of compensation, allowances and PEN
sionS, as well as military and naval
insurance and expenditures Of the
Administration.
but the military and naval iusur-
ance was paid by the men themselves,
and therefore the sum Of $123, 740,59
should be deducted from the total.
Likewise, expenditures Of the Admin
istration, $1O436O,412. should not be
charged to those entitled to disability
compensation or allowance.
"As a matter of fact, when we
get down to bone figures, we find
that the government expended dur
ing the fiscal year OF 1882 a sum
of only 1854 ,998,6l3 en- disability
compensation and allowance. Now
how are they going TO cut S15G,000,
O00 from a total Of S26t,938,613 IN
less they also cut ali Of the pen
sions (s232, 500, A2S), or slash all Of
the other allowances and benefits
now paid to veterans?
Fight ALI Cuts!
"The non service connected disab-
iLty allowances amount only to $75,-
1929. And this is what they give
us for an excuse in order to slash
S450,0OO,O00l
THE rank and file Of veterans and
veteran organize tip1s should most
strenuously oppose any cuts in any
Of the veterans benefits now aCtu-
ally paid to and received by the vet
Grams. If we let them cut all so-calIed
non service connected disability al
lowances, they will next be slashing
all disability compensation.
THE Veterans National Liaison
Committee calls upon all veterans
and veteran organizations to proceed
more actively and determinedly with
preparations for the march on Wash
ington May u. Create your own
and more militant leadership, first
locally, then nationally. Fight against
all cuts in the veterans benefits!
Fight for immediate cash payment
of the bonus! Fight for immediate
remedial relief for the unemployed

TRY TO BAR NEW
MOONEY TRIAL
Method is Suggested
by Attorney-Genera

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 29.-Cali-
fCrnia authorities are seeking to null
ify the victory won in forcing a Sec
ond trial for Tom Mooney on an I'M
used indictment, it was revealed here
today. The trial is scheduled 70 be-
gin here April 26.
Following the refusal of District
Attorney Matthew A. Brady to prose-
cute Mooney on the ground that the
second trial would be "a farce" due
to the absence of the perjured state
witnesses who framed Mooney in
1915, Attorney General U. S. Webb
of California has rendered an opin-
ion declaring that Brady cannot
"disqualify" himself, and suggested
two possible actions :
Either try the case or insist on
the dismissal Of the Indictment.
2.-Upon the refusal OF Judge
Ward vino granted the second trial,
to dismiss the indictment, to seek a
writ Of mandamus from the state
supreme court ordering its dismissal.
Mooney Raps Farce" Talk.
Meanwhile in statement issued
through the Tom Mooney Molders
Defense Committee here, Mooney
declared that "the trial will not be a
farce or q mock trial as the pre-
sent District Attorney has stated
Even the District Attorneys signed
statement presented in court estab-
fishes my innocence. The statement
declares that in the light Of our
present knowledge, his former con-
yiction is unjustified there is not,
at this time, evidence that will sup
port a verdict OF guilty."
