BUFFALO STEEL
WORKERS STRIKE
FOR PAY RAISE
In a Counter Blow to
Big Wage Cut Drive
of Steel Barons

BUFFALO, N. Y, Jan. 3l.-About
100 steel workers of the Lackawanna
Steel Corporation plants No. 2 and 8
struck today in demand of 20 per
cent wage increase and recognition Of
the Shop Committee.
The strike represents the first
counter-bloW by the steel workers
against the cutting and speed
up drive Of the steel companies ini-
tiated in 1881. 1t comes as an an
swer to the announcement just made
to the press by Myron C. Taylor, head
Of the U. S. Steel Corporation that
another wage cut is about to be an
nounced.
Four Wage Cuts.
The workers of the Lackawanna
Steel Corporation have already re-
ceived four wage cuts, the last cut
put into effect amounted to IS per
cent. The monthly bonus promised
to the workers by the Company was
paid only once. But for the last two
months the Company has refused to
pay the bonus
The company is no exception to the
terrific exploitation of the workers
now taking place in the steel indust-
ry. The working week is fifty-eight
and a half hours long, with skilled
mechanics, riveters, cranemen and
painters working for as low as Is
cents an hour.
Leo by Militant Union.
The strikers are accepting with en-
thusiasm the leadership of the Steel
and Metal Trades Workers Industrial
Union. As in the Detroit auto workers
strikes a firm united front between
the employed and unemployed is be-
ing established through the Unem-
ployed Council which is helping the
strikers.
A broad strike committee has been
elected, representing all departments.
Following the successful methods of
the Detroit auto workers who have
already won two strikes, the strike
committee made the decision to pull
out plant No. l of the same company.
The plant is located few miles away
from the strike area.

Gen. Victor Vuillemin's BLACK Squad

umphantly completed a 16.OoO-mile tour

A hero's acclaim on behalf Of France
was brought the flyers by Air Minister
Pierre Cot. who braved a Mediter-
ranean snowstorm to fly here yester-
day.
Thirty planes, manned by so pilots,
mechanics and radio operators, started
on the long cruise November 8. One
plane, however, cracked up in Spain.
Another crashed in Morocco. There
were no casualties.
Two nights Of sleeping on the
Sahara's sands, under the wings OF
their planes, was but an incident in
the mass flight over jungles, deserts
and mountains. Native blacks gath
cred by thousands in colonial centers
to watch the passing of the air armada.
Impressing the primitive tribesmen

and incidentally his strength, was one
of the purposes of the mass flight.
