ZauSner Tax

NEW YORK.-Philip ZauSner, Sec
rotary of A. F. of L. Painters Dis
trict Council 9 was repudiated by the
entire membership Of Locals 400 and
848 at a meeting yesterday morning
when the union painters swept out
of the hall as Zausner entered,
leaving him to talk to his bodyguard
Of 20 gangsters.
More than 40 painters came to the
meeting and voted unanimously to
refuse to pay the so cent tax de-
manded Of each member by the zaus-
mr. clique to build up big treasury.
They also decided to refuse to register
twice daily as ordered by the corrupt
officialdom to prove that they are
unemployed. The SO cent tax had
been devised by the Zausner gang
who, under the pretense of needing
funds for an organization drive, were
getting $3.50 a week from each mem
Der to support their strong arm ma
chine. One of these strong arm men
Tony Benedetto has just been con-
victed together with other gangsters
in connection with the murderous
raid on the Needle Trade Workers
Industrial Union.
The rank and file painters in revolt
against this racketeering, on their
own initiative decided to call meet
ing yesterday to take immediate &C
ton on the question.
At the meeting zausner's strong
arm squad was conspicuous in every
part of the hall. One of them,
Kemen, of local sos tried . speak,
but the members refused to ar him,
Louis Weinstock, secretary Of the A,
F. of L. Committee for Unemploy-
ment Insurance and Relief, and
chairman of the meeting proposed
that the members stop paying the
tax Immediately. Ritter, of Local
400, and Malonsy, of Local 84s, were
among the speakers, supporting the
proposal. Just as the members had
taken their vote, and pledged that
they would act at once, zausner and
his henchmen arrived to break up
the meeting.
1t was then that a spontaneous
demonstration OF DOCS ana denuncl-
ations of Zausner by the membership
occurred, and the membership turned
their backs on him.
The growing revolt taking place in
all A. F. of L. locals, against the
racketeering leadership will be ex-
pressed at the A. F.. of L. rank and
file conference to be held at Irving
