bership meeting of the Cleaners,

mean to make permanent by the
adoption Of their code by the MIRA.

mediate mobilize for the strike by
calling mass meeting of the work
ers in the trade, by calling shop
meetings to discuss the question, and
by establishing a strike fund by levy
ing a tax of a half days wage. The
union will attempt to draw into the
strike all other existing locals in the
trade to effect a real united strike
and a joint strike committee. A
strike committee of 35 and settle
ment committee of 5 were elected

nature to it in a day or two.
u The reason for keeping the terms
Of the coal code a secret is to keep
the coal miners from venting their
anger with the starvation terms Of
the code, John L. Lewis and the
coal operators feeling that when
Roosevelt signs it the miners might
oe awed into accepting It,.
According to information from
the NRA the wage rate provided Tor
IN the code is $3.50 day. With
he miners working two or three
DAYS a week, this will make the
minimum wage for coal diggers
over than that for textile workers.
At the same time, no provisions are
made against raising prices IN the
company stores owned by the coal
operators. The code merely legalizes
the present starvation wages.
On the big issue Of union recog-
milton, the coal operators have made
some sort of agreement to work
with John L. Lewis against real
union organization in the coal
fields.
The capitalist papers here, as
we'll as the news releases sent from
Washington all over the country say
that the coal operators are ready to
recognize the UMWA, but the off
cial statement of General Johnson
says nothing of the kind.
After meeting secretly with
Lewis and the coal barons, Genera
johnson declared:
COMMITTEES of the United Mine
Workers and of the operators IN
the Appalachian bituminous field
have reached the basis of an agree
ment covering the principal points
at issue and which this administra-
ton is willing to recommend to the
President.
"This clears the way to the prep
sration of an acceptable code. NJ
announcement of the provisions car
be made until there is an agree
ment on the actual wording of the
agreement and the code"
The statement says nothing about
recognition of the union, out mere
ly emphasizes the fact that John L
Lewis, Phillip Murray and Var
Bittner, officials of the UMWf
have agreed to support the starva
ton slave code of the coal operat
ors, and that the coal operators ar
satisfied.
