Ever since yesterday when we
promised Stanley Bigelow to write
a harmony column for him, we've
been wondering how it's done.
Yes, we're the Three x Sisters.
Pearl insists that we ought each
of us to do one-third Of the
column. Jessie insists that we
ought to divide the typewriter key
board into three sections, and vi
Just doesn't seem to care, as long
as we get the column done.
Anyway, we're thrilled at tie
thought Of winning back our
identity. For four months now,
since our opening broadcast over
the Columbia BroadcaSting Sys-
tenn, we've been kept in absolute
SecluSion. We've never been told
the reason. but since our contract
called for it, we have been obliged
to wear masks to the studio, go
to no parties, do nothing that
might give our real identities
away. And it isn't SO good.
This business of living in a
perpetual masquerade takes all the
fun out Of life. Just think Of it!
You go out and buy new dress
with nowhere to go in it. You
go to Antoine to arrange your hair
in a new and more becoming way.
Who's going to notice it when
there's q mask over your face? So
you can't blame us for being
thrilled and quite in love with you
radio fans of Washington for get
ting us out here to drop this
masked business, and come out in
the open as ourselves.
It win be the thrill Of lifetime
!, when the curtain opens at the
Earle today, and we pull those
I masks off to appear in person.
Though wen make our entrance
as Three KS it will be swell to
exit aS.-well, you'll know later.
Stanley tells US you want to
know something about us. Well,
we. are American girls, born right
in New York, though we had to
60 to- England to get into radio.
! We're, pretty young, within a
4. couple of years of each other.
\ We've been on the air two years
land four months, two years in
England and four months here.
Our biggest thrill will un-
doubtedly take place when we
meet you face to face at the
theater. The biggest we've had

Wales. telling us how much he'd

asking us to sing his favorite,
+ '"The Man I Love-" And then
meeting him after we'd sung it.
That was thrill.
Now that we're ready to sign

we thought, we mean this

Gives Right
To Picket" Thomas
Turns Meet of 1000
Against NRA Into
One For It

NEW YORK, Sept. Norman
Thomas turned what was called as a
protest meeting on Union So. yester-
day by the United Hebrew Trades
Unions, against the injunction issued
by Judge Selah B. Strong against the
1000 bakery strikers, into a demon
Stration for the N.R.A., under which
the injunction was issued. Two thou
sand workers were on the square.
1.-THE MIRA. gives workers the right
to picket :. abrogates no legal rights
and the N.R.A. gives workers the
right to join their own union" was
the brazen statement of Thomas to
the workers, who were at that very
moment ordered by an injunction
fostered by the N.RA., to stop pick
citing. Thomas himself admitted the
fact that the strikes of the Shoe and
Leather Workers Industrial Union,
which he referred to as "a Commu-
mist boot union" and of the Furni-
ture Workers Industrial Union strike
at the Progressive Table Co. in
Brooklyn, where Robert Minor, Com
munist candidate for mayor, was ar
rested Wednesday for picketing, had
also been interfered with by the
MIRA.
The workers cheered the mention
of Minor.
August Classens, socialist official
and candidate in the coming cleo
tons, told the workers to flight the
injunction without violating it," He
said: Just don't buy bread without
the union label"

mittees.
The main questions of the struggle
now are the uniting of the forces OF
the workers, bringing forward a real
working and authoritative rank and
file leadership on the basis of the
exposure and defeat of the agents OF
the National Recovery slave Act-the
Associated Silk Workers leadership
and that of the U.T.W.
When it is said that the Associated
Silk Workers officials are leading one

the N.T.WI.U. ancther-the most de-
cisive section, dye plant workers -
this must not be taken to mean that

FORT WORTH, Tex. - Three
thousand workers demonstrated here
Wednesday in protest against the
brutal police murder of T. E. Bar
low, district organizer of the Com

ization of the county and city po-
lice, who attempted to smash the
meeting with tear-gas bombs, the
workers defended the speakers and
refused to dispense.
D. Lacey of the Unemployed
Councils, Alice Wilson of the In
ternational Labor Defense and Ben
Lauderdale of the Communist Party
addressed the crowd.
The meeting demanded that the
body of Barlow be held for COM
plete investigation and accused the
police of murder. The death pen

case was demanded.

workers have visited the funeral
parlor to view the body.
Police are conducting savage
hunt for the leading members of
the Communist Party and other
workers organization. Workers
are stopped and questioned and
inundated continually.
A flood of protests has been
called for to combat this reign of
terror and to demand that the MUIR
derers of Barlow be punished.
Through error, Barlow's murder
was previously reported as oc-
curing in Dallas. AS will be seen
from the above story the crime
actually occurred in Fort Worth.

Plant Ran by Gen. Johnson Cuts Pay,
Fires Union Man Under Bue Eagle
Some Forced to Work
Long Hours With
No Extra Pay

NEWARK, N. j., Sept. General
johnson, MIRA administrator, is pres
ident of company here flying the
blue eagle that has slashed wages
and fired workers for belonging to a
union.
A letter written to General john
son by the Carpet Workers Union de-
clares that the Lea Fabrics, Inc,
manufacturers of automobile carpets,
of which General Johnson is the
highest official, discharged Herbert
Snalley for joining the union. Be
sides, the Lea Fabrics, Inc, has re-
duced hours from 48 to 40, cutting
pay proportionately. In many cases
workers are forced to work more
hours without increased pay. General
Johnson has repeatedly told the
workers that if their hours are cut
their wages would not be cut.
Eric Ross, secretary of the union,
telegraphed President Roosevelt,
General johnson, secretary of Labor
Perkins, and the Labor Advisory
Board, saying that the company OF
which General Johnson is the head
has violated the CODE"
Ellery K. Files, president and
associate of General Johnson, an
swering the charges of making the
workers work longer than the code
hours, said:
"If you cannot get necessary extra
employees familiar with our process
you must work those you have over
time. It has nothing to do with the
normal working week"
AS to the firing of Smalley for join
ing the union, he said
"He was fired because his work
was unsatisfactory. We do not
encourage Ross union. I told him
we would prefer to have them join
a union affiliated with the A. F. of L."

LOO MEN in Dye STRIKERS.
FOUNDRY COIN PATERSON.
ON STRIKE Led BY N.T.W.
1000 Now Out AS the
Picket Lines Cover
Dye Shops

PATERSON, N. j., Sept. THE
Paterson silk strike entered new
phase today with the National Tex
tile Workers Union which is leading
the struggle of nearly 1000 dye work
ers won a decisive factor in the sit
uation. AS this is being written mass
picket lines are marching through
out the working class sections OF the
eity under the banner of the Ma
tional Textile Workers Union call
ing workers in all remaining dye
shops still working, into the strike.
The following dye shops are now out
on strike: the Weidman, Hawthorne,
United Piece Dye Works, Radiance,
Imhof -Berg, Expert, Madison, Ham
ilton, Victory, Supreme, and Trio
shops.
All OF Paterson's working class
seems to be in motion as the work
ers take things into their own hands
to spread the strike. Today a picket
line, three blocks long, with about
400 workers marched through the
Riverside section to the Commercial
Piece Dyeing Co., broke through the
big gate and went right to the work
ers urging them to join the strike.
The workers were sympathetic and
are beginning to come out. This
action occurred IN several other
places.
The local newspaper, Paterson
News, forced to admit the strength
of the NTWO in the strike, is boost
ing the AFL union, knowing that
the silk bosses can expect to get
what they want from the Associated
officials. The News reports: Mean
while the strike call of the National
Textile Workers Union is being heed
ed by surprising number in the
industry here" 1t was this response
which will result in the issuance of
a strike call Gin the dye section Of
the industry, by the AFL union.
Eli Keller, renegade, expelled as a
disrupter of the National Textile
Workers Union and now organizer
of the Associated Silk Workers,
telling the workers that the Asso-
ciated is leading the dye strike, at

workers on the picket line at the

But the speakers sent by Keller

and their disruptive effort failed
miserably. A charge of disorderly
conduct was lodged against Abe
Harrison and Meyer Lax who were
arrested but later released.

Close Plant; Demand
Higher Pay, Union
Recognition

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Sept. 7.-Elev-
en- hundred foundry workers of the
Walworth Foundry Co., Greensburg,
Pa. struck at O'Clock this morning
solidly under the leadership of the
Steel and Metal Workers Industrial
Union.
The whole plant 1t down tight,
with mass picketing 1T all five en-
frances.
The strikers are fighting for 81
demands, based on various depart
ments. The main demands are a
minimum wage of 40 cents an hour;
a general increase of 20 per cent;
abolition of piece work, and to make
the machine piece work rates the
day rates, plus 20 per cent. 40-hour
week maximum; time and half for
overtime; recognition of the union.
Union leaders from the national
office of the union are participating
in the picket line. The plant has $50
employed workers, and $50 unem-
ployed, former employees of the COM
pany.
The workers elected "a grievance
committee to represent all depart
ments. They met with company rep
resentatives and presented their de-
mands in a seven-hour session with
the company on Tuesday. The de-
mands were not answered by the
company. A mass meeting Tuesday
night decided to send the committee
back to confer with the company
again on Wednesday, giving the
company until noon as the deadline
to answer the demands.
The committee went, but the COM
pany stalled. Another mass meeting
was called Wednesday night and the
workers voted unanimously for strike
at 500 AM Thursday.
The meeting at which the strike
vote was taken was addressed by
John Meldon, secretary of the Steel
and Metal Workers Industrial Union,
and Pat Cush, national chairman.
