What Has the NRA
Done for Us? Asks
An Iron Worker
tBY a Worker CORRESPONDENCE

NEW YORK.-The true outline of
the NRA given to. us at meeting
BY Brother Weinstock has not con-
WINGED some of the officers OF Local
No. So of the Iron Workers, but ma
turally the fault does not lie with
Brother Weinstock.
On Sept 8, 1888, at the meeting we
had a speaker from the MIRA, and
a lot of applause. Even the New
York Times gave publicity to this
meeting.
Now the NRA emblem is posted in
the front windows Of our office, with
canvassers for getting signatures of
members for consumers pledge.
To some of our officers, the bust
ness law says, IF you sell merchan-
disc you've got to get money, if not
YOU are supposed to be credited with
the amount; 2-If you sign the NRA
pledge. the agreement goes into eff
feet Immediately; st gives you the
right to belong to the union you
choose.
I challenge the officers of Local
No. 81, to show and give me proofs,
through the columns of this paper,
if they nave received all the above.
Otherwise. I'll give them the proofs
that all they have received is just
the Blue Eagle sign. thev have pasted
on the window, but no represen-
tation
1 therefore urge every member that
is approached to sign. to demand and
to be shown in facts what he is going
to get.

The workers became very bitter as
a result of the refusal of the COM
pany to grant their demands for
wage increases. They wanted to
strike but were heSitant because they
did not know whether or not they
would receive the help of the wire
drawers.
The Wire Drawers were already or
ganized into the Steel and Metal
Workers Industrial Union At their
meeting the Wire Drawers decided
to send a representative to the fabric
mill men to assure them of solidarity
and support in their fight for their
demands. When the fabric men
were assured of the support of the
Wire Drawers they decided to go
again to the company and put forth
their demands.
THE company refused to grant the
l demands, consequently the fabric
mill men walked out. The following
day the department committee of the
Wire Drawers went to the superin-
tendent to discuss with him the de-
mands of the fabric mill. The super
intendent told the committee that
the situation in the fabric mill was
none of the damn business of the
wire drawers" and that the workers
had no right to organize" In the
meantime the Wire Drawers refused
to go to work until they heard the
report of their committee. When the
Wire Drawers Committee reported,
the Wire Drawers decided to go on
strike in sympathy with the fabric
mill men.
The Wire Drawers Committee met
with the committee of the fabric
mill and informed them that they
were going on strike. They also
worked out a plan for pulling out
the other departments in sympathy.
Following this meeting the Galva-
- t'-e Pat@en Furnace. the
Bundling Room, the Potts and Anneal
and TIE Scrap were contacted and
given a picture of the situation. These
workers DECIDED to go on strike in
sympathy with the fabric mill. The
nex0 morning the most strategic sec
ton Of the mill was closed down COM
pletely. The workers of the various
departments met at the gate the fol-
lowing morning to pull the other
departments. The result was that
many workers from other depart
ments Joined the strikers, especially
the Millrights of the wire mill
The workers went to the Croatian
hall where mass meeting was held.
AT this meeting the workers officially
announced the strike, elected their
strike committee, worked out their
demands, and organized picketing.
The majority of the strikers joined
the Steel and Metal Workers In
dustriaI Union. A negotiations COM
mittee was also elected to present
demands to the company.
There were some departments, such
as the Dock Gang, the Open Hearth,
Blast Furnace, Bloomer Mill, Gas
House. Rod Mill, Boiler House and
the electricians The strikers made
every effort to bring these workers
cut in support of the strike but of
no avail The company promised
these departments wage increases

fresh vegetables seems to be at low

later on, baked dinners, including
meats, vegetables, pies, cakes, and
SO on.
Now as to the potatoes. They are
mostly water and starch, but con-
ain also some valuable mineral,
which lies next to the skin, as it is
absorbed from the ground; SO they
should be pared as thinly as possible.

boiled potatoes, grasp the spud firm

Cut in halves, drop into pan of

Choose potatoes of uniform size for

When you have some boiled pota-

CAMDEN, N. Recently, Nc
Donald. RCA company union agent
(these birds in the plant are known
as wolves, called q meeting in
company building for the purpose
of explaining what benefits the
workers could gain from company
union. A worker inquired if the union
would support strike. The answer
was that it would not. Whereupon a
dozen workers demanded to know
what sort of organization was this
company union.
When one worker left the meeting
in disgust, over rs followed his eX-
ample. With the exception OF six
votes, the majority present at this
meeting voted against joining COM
pany union.

banked Only three blast furnaces
were operating, so this means that
enc of three furnaces was closed,
cutting off third of the pig iron
production of the Gary mills. Fur
thermore. future bookings of ste>.
orders for the entire U. S. A. for July
showed an 86,0O0-ton decrease over
June, and August showed a l26,00o-
ton decrease over July.
The rank and file workers in the
mills in Gary are beginning to &C
lively resent the fake leadership
foisted upon them from above. For
instance, in one case an organizer
Hor company union apparently in
duced the workers in one depart
ment to sign petition for their
rights to collective bargaining. Some
time later the same organizer came
back and demanded that they with
draw their names from the petition.
The workers are beginning to realize
that the Steel and Metal Workers
Industrial Union was right when it
warned them in its leaflets TO be-
ware of the labor takers.
Living Standards Lowered
Many of the average workers are
openly declaring that the raise in
prices of necessities, rents, etcs have
cut their wages to the vanishing
point and that living standards
while on the job are little better
if any than when they were on the
relief rolls.
They are beginning to see that the
Roosevelt program is only a more
cleverly camouflaged continuation of
Hoover's program.

The Daily Workers
Role in the Shops
By a Worker Correspondent

DETROIT, Mich.-Since the code
went into effect, Detroit Vapor
Stove factory was put on eight-hour
shifts and hired plenty of men. I
think it hired more men than some
of the big automobile factories, but
so far we did not get any increase in
wages to equal our wages which We
received when we worked longer
hours.
The workers are grumbling and
waiting to see if the promise will be
fulfilled. There is no speed-up as
yet because the new workers do not
know how to do their work well
I wish that the workers would be-
gin to organize, because they will
need organization soon. 1 thin t. ere
should be reports from every factory
sent to the Daily Worker. In this
way, the Daily" can be introduced
to the workers of these factories and
be read among the entire working
class.
I think that the Daily Worker
should have at least 100000 readers
in Detroit.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.-The claws Of

worked 80 hours the week before last,
and last week "a hours. He got a

LIST, but even with this increase he
gets wage cut. Wages per hour
are about the same. This worker
figures he gets about So per week
less now under NRA rule.
No new men have been hired as
was planned. None have been hired
in the shipping department where he
works.
In the same department, operators
jobs bring A cents an hour. Many Of
these workers are now shifted over
as helpers" at IS cents an hour.
Another worker receives now S. per
week less in wages under the MIRA
than he did before Another used
to work u hours a day, now he
puts in only 8, so despite the is per
cent increase in wages, he now gets
LEES money than formerly.
One steel workers wife estimates
that her grocery bill has increased
by So or 81 for a two weeks period
What will the steel workers do about
this? The plan is:
l. To hold group meetings in homes
to popularize the steel workers code,
to acquaint the workers with the
program and policies of S.M.WI.U.
Later mass meetings will be called.
2. To distribute our code at factory
gates and inside the mill in all de-
partments where we have contacts,
thus gaining new adherents.

if they remained in the shop. This
of course was a clever move on the
part of the company to split the
workers by bribery and to use these
workers to defeat the strikers. The
workers fell for this fake promise
made to them by the company to
their sorrow. Immediately after the
strike was over the company refused
to keep the promise to the faith
full" Undoubtedly these workers
have learned a very valuable lesson,
and that is not to rely on the lying
promises of the company and to stick
solidly; only struggle can win higher
wages and better conditions

THE strike of the 300 workers of the
1 Wickwire Spencer Steel Company
is one of the most outstanding battles
ever fought in this vicinity since
the great steel strike, 1t is the
clearest indication of the movement
that is developing in the entire steel
and metal industry for real industrial
unionism as against the fake federal
unionism" and craft uniohism of the
American Federation of Labor. The
treacherous role of the A. F. of L,
leaders in the Acme strike the SELL
out of the great steel strike in 1919
by the A. F. of L. leaders, still re-
mains wildly in the minds of the
masses of steel and metal workers.
The WickWide strike from its very
inception began under the leadership
of the Steel and Metal Workers In
dustrial Union. This was not acct
dental. 1t was the result of the
tremendous work of the union in the
exposure of the American Federation
of Labor leaders and the winning of
partial demands for the workers prior
to the strike.
THE strike was the direct outgroWth
4 of the movement that began
among the Wire Drawers, (the key
men in the shop against low tonnage
rates and low day rates and against
the abusive treatment the workers re-
ceived at the hand of the foremen and
the superintendent. There were other
grievances, such as refusal to pay
for scratch wire, sample wire, wild
wire al so forth.
The Wire Drawers met and orga-
nizca themselves 100 percent, elected
Their department committee to pre-
sent demands to the company for
TIE elimination of the above men
Toned grievances. The demands
we're as follows:
/. Recognition of the department
committee;
2. so percent pay for all scratch
wire;
3. A minimum rate of SOC an hour
for wire drawers and 40c an
hour for wire drawers helpers.
l. All sample wire drawn to be
paid for at the hour rate.
S. no discrimination against any
CT the workers
6. IS percent increase in tonnage
rates for all wire drawers draw
y. ing large size wire when work
ing without a helper
All the above demands were granted.
The ncwj of this tremendous victory
spread through the entire plant. The
recult was tremendous.
Following close upon the heels of
the victory of the wire drawers came
the movement in the Fabric Mill.
The Fabric Mill workers went to
the bosses in a body. They demand
the following:
l. Minimum hourly rate of Sic
fer helpers on the fabric mill
machines for ell change overs.
2. Recognition of the department
committee.
3. No discrimination against any
o the workers
The company refused to grant any
of the demands except the recogni-
ticn of the department committee.
