Of the NR.A., and at the same time
has rushed investigators to the Penn
sylvania strike fields to make re
ports" on the situation.
Reports from his representatives are
expected tonight. Roosevelt will use
this report to rush through a coal
code, giving the operators an oppor-
tunity OF driving the men back to
work as he did before without grant
ing their demands.
Governor Pinchot, who during the
last strike sent the militia to the
mine fields where they slugged the
miners, is in Washington conferring
on the coal code. He said the H. c.

At the same time, Roosevelt has

DES MONIES, Iowa, Sept. Ia. -
Five hundred miners at the Mad id
mines out of 5000 who are on strike,
voted to return to work YESTERDAY.
Confused leadership is showing
weakness in organizing picketing and
relief.
The strike started against the or
ders of the U.M.W.A. officials when
the promises of code that would
raise wages fell through. The miners
formed their own strike leadership.

strike committee, tells the miners

League. The Confederation Nacional
Obrera de Cuba has launched the
slogan of q general political strike
against intervention.
Meetings are being held in fac
tories and unions to carry out the
strike. The capitalist landlord press
Is attempting to head off this move
ment by organizing mo Interven-
tion Committees" These, however,
being made UP mostly of workers and
intellectuals, are joining in the strike
movement.
Striving to please Washington, the
government is feyerishly pressing to
settle all strikes. Army sergeants are
ordered to intervene in all strikes.
However, the rank and file of the
army, when it intervenes, forces a
settlement in favor of the workers in
most cases.
10000 Demonstrate
The demonstration of the Anti-Im-
perialist League has produced a
tremendous sensation. More than
10000 attended, and cheered when
the slogan of a general political
strike was raised. A Negro soldier
created a sensation when he pledged
the help of the soldiers in the fight
against the landing of troops. Leo
nardo Sanchez, former secretary of
the Julio Mella Club Of Harlem, New
York, spoke for the Central Commit
tee of the Communist Party.
The appeal Of the Communist Par
ty and the Young Communist League
to the U. S. marines to refuse to fight
the Cuban workers is posted in all
conspicuous places in Havana, and
has drawn great deal Of favorable
comment.
More Than 10000 on Strike
An incomplete compilation shows
that 10000 workers are on strike. In
Camaguey province alone, $4,000
sugar workers are striking. Only four
sugar mills and plantations are work

A.F.L. HEADS
CALLING OFF
SILK STRIKE
Allentown Union Votes
to Continue Strike

PATTERSON, N. J. AS the silk
strike continues to spread to plants
in Bayonne, Garfield, Rutherford and
East Paterson, A. r. of L. officials in
a secret deal with the employers at
strike conferences in Washington
agreed last night to call off the strike
on the basis Of a so-called five weeks
truce. After delegates Of the National
Textile Workers Union we're barred
from the conferences the deal was
effected by Mr.. Mcmahon of the U.
T. w. Although Ann Burlak regis
tered a protest with Senator Wagner
against the arbitrary exclusion of
the elected representatives Of nearly
%, 900 silk strikers, Mcmahon was
firm in his insistence that he will not
arrive at any agreement unless the
E.T.W. delegates are barred.
The deal TO break the strike made
by the A. F. of l.. is based on Senator
Wagner's promise that action will be
taken on the silk code within five
weeks. In the meantime the A. F. of
l.. agreed to abandon it's demand of
$36 as weekly minimum wage and
accepted a minimum scale Of so a
week. The A. F.. of L. also forgot its
demand for a 30-hour week and the
4O-hour week will continue.
The general strike committee of
the Allentown Silk Workers Union,
representing 1900 strikers, meeting
today, voted against tire deal, which
betrays the national silk strike, and
decided to continue out on strike for
the unions demands, Delegates from
all sections of the country are being
called to a national silk conference
