Meanwhile in the face OF unani-
nous demonstration of militancy and
solidarity displayed by the rank and
file members Of the ALL Schweit-
ger, Secretary of the Associated Silk
UTW) was forced to carry out a
right-about- face and to issue a state
ment that the workers should con-
tinue to strike Schweitzer together
with Mcmahon, had engineered the
weeks truce with the manufactr-
ers g few days ago at the meeting
called by the NRA and had in Wash
ington accepted this truce. But in
the vote on the strike not a single
Xix striker in his union voted to &C
cept this truce.
In Schweitzer's public statement
today, he says; Now that we are
already out on strike, it is in our
hands to continue this fight until we
get a national agreement, a decent
living wage backed up by Union rec
ignition"
1t is noteworthy that Schweitzer
and Mcmahon. whom the NF2A en-
trusted with the task Of putting over
the weeks truce, have not yet made
any statement to the MIRA officials on
the official stand of his Union with
regard to the strike. Schweitzer claims
today that he is waiting until he
hears the vote from Easton and
Stroudsburg before communicating
with Washington. But this is sub
terfuge because the workers of both
Easton and Stroudsberg have already
voted to remain on strike and have
sent delegates to the National Strike
Committee in the meeting in Allen
town.
Delegates left this afternoon from
Paterson and Passaic for the meeting
of the National Strike Committee in
Allentown tonight where a statement
will be issued on the national silk
and dye situation. The delegates in
clude representatives of the Loom
FixerS Club and the Wrappers League,
as well as delegates of the silk and
dye strikers.
Anne Burlak, who left with the del
egation for Allentown, stated
''Schweitzer and Mcmahon and the
leaders of the U.T.W., are concealing
from the Paterson workers that in
Washington they helped to engineer
the five weeks of truce and that in
Washington they definitely commit
ted themselves to ending the strike
without raise. The five-weeks truce,
which is an N.R.A. agreement, pledg-
es the U.TW. together with the man
ufacturers to put over S13 a week
wage on the silk industry. The five
weeks truce would mean that the
bosses would have five weeks to stock
up goods and make all preparations
for sell-out."
The mass meetings last night in
both Paterson and Passaic were at
tended to capacity. Tomorrow morn
ing all forces will be concentrated on
mass picket line at Lodi.
All the forces of the manufacturers
are being concentrated to try to drive
the workers back to work. The New
Jersey State MIRA. Board has issued
statement that they want to "arbi-
trate." Chief of Police Murphy con-
tinues to mobilize extra police Manu-
facturers are calling on the Roosevelt
government to settle the strike and
drive the workers back, but the dye
and silk workers militantly and
unanimously state they will not re-
turn to work until their demands are
met.

Mass picket lines were thrown
about the Paterson and Passaic area
by the NTWU and no mills were
able to open. A few dye houses, such
as the Claremont on 18th St., tried
to open, but the mass picket line of
the NTWU soon emptied them Of
scabs and closed every mill down
tight.
The main picket line IN Paterson
was one Of the most powerful mass
demonstrations of the strike so far.
More than 1000 workers paraded
through the dye house section with
other thousands looking on with ap-
prevail marched through the main
streets of the town and wound up
with the first open air mass meeting
OF the strike at 18th Street and 3rd
Avenue, at the Weidemann Mil.
Many banners were carried in the
parade with such slogans as Our
Children Can't Have Milk on S13 a
week." eve Strike for Bread, We
Strike for New Shoes!" Down With
the Five weeks Truce! JOIN Lne
National Textile Workers Union!"
Under these banners demanding
bread and shoes were carried loaves
of bread and old shoes belonging to
the strikers.
One attempt was made by some of
the local leaders of the ALL. Dyers
Union to head off the parade and
lead it. About 100 members of the
AT. L. placed themselves at the head
of this parade, which was many
blocks long, but seeing that they
couldn't stampede the picketers to
the ALL. Hall, this handful Of AL.
followers soon left the lines. The
rank and file followers of the ALL.
demonstrated their solidarity with
the dye strikers when the NTWU
picket line passed the Roseland Hall
and the Turn Hall, strike halls Of
the silk ard dye ALL. unions. The
rant 80 f1o workers cheered and
applauded as the gigantic picket liz
of the N.T.W.U. passed their hall.

WOODR|NG SPEAKS
ON WAR RESOURCES
Says Obtaining Raw Material
As Debt Payment Merits
Consideration.

The suggestion that the American
Government should obtain war reserve
of essential raw materials by accepting
certain quantities in payment OF war
debts was described yesterday by As
sistant Secretary of War Woodring as
"meriting serious consideration.
Mr.. Woodring was the principal
speaker at a luncheon given at the May
flower Hotel by the Military Order OF
the World War, and touched on the
subject of war debts in explaining his
task of mobilizing the industrial war
strength of the Nation.
$4,000 Plants Surveyed.
Declaring approximately $4,000 in
dustrial plants have been surveyed, Mr.:
Woodring said these have been informed
of Just what items they should be re-
uuired to furnish in an emergency TO
supply each arm in the service. Con-
siderable difficulty may be expected, he
said, in obtaining an adequate supply
Of those raw materials for which the
Nation is dependent upon foreign
sources of supply. There are 26 OF
these materials, he said, including man
ganese, chromium and others OF ike
importance.
"It has been suggested that we should
obtain a war reserve of these materials
by accepting certain quantities in pay
ment of debts owed us by foreign ma
tions," Mr.. Woodring said The sug-
gestion merits serious consideration.
Civilian Agencies Suggested.
"Supplementing these plans are others
looking to the setting up, when neces-
sary, Of special civilian agencies under
the direction of the Government to CO.
ordinate the efforts of the country's
entire productive resources"
Mr.. Woodring called attention to
some Of the measures for economic re-
covery initiated by President Roosevelt
as paralleling those contemplated in
mobilizing plans for war. The most
striking examples, he said, are measures
for the regulating of crop production,
industry, transportation and investment
securities issues.
Col. ]. Miller Kenyon, president of
the Military Order of the World War,
presided at the luncheon.

Was the great George Washington
ever frightened at the shadows in the
night when he was baby, and did he
howl Justify until his mother woke up?
The scene is easy to conjure up since
the bed room in which he was born at
Wakefield, Va, has been completely
restored.
The mansion was burned on Christ
mas night in 1880 and has only recently
been rebuilt as a national shrine. Most
of the rooms have already been fur
nished in pieces of the period or in
reproductions of museum pieces.
Mary Ball Washington, the generals
mother, slept in such a high four

the candle standing at her bedside be-
fore she could reach into the cradle for
her son.
