ers' Union several days ago exposed
the chairman of the committee as a
stool-pigeon and forced him to get
out. Steps are being taken to
strengthen the strike leadership by
electing representatives at meetings
now being organized from the diff
ferent departments.
Highland Park is crowded with
state and city police watching every
move of the workers inside and out
side the Briggs plant. Those who
are working are under strict police
supervision in each department and
workers say that the plant looks like
prison. The Auto Workers Union
and the Briggs local of the union are
issuing a statement protesting against
the police control inside the factory
and demanding the removal of those
outside.
Sundays splendid meeting at
Danceland Auditorium has put new
life into the strikers. The Briggs
Mack Avenue plant, which employs
1000, is still shut tight, and mass
recruiting for the Auto Workers
Union is being successfully conducted
among all the strikers. The COM
pany yesterday refused to deal with
three representatives of the strikers
negotiations committee and the work
ers are determined to fight on.
The Ford plants, which were forced
to close throughout the country be-
cause of the effectiveness of the
strike, have still failed to resume
production, despite advance an
nouncements to the contrary that
appeared in the capitalist press dur
ing the last few days. Automobile

had assured the press that the Cabi-
net had no intention of limiting its
freedom. Within week the Cabinet
bad issued the most severe and
sweeping anti-press decree in post
war history, said the Communist dep
uty.
Conspiracy Against Communist Lists
Deputy PECK followed Torgler and
informed the press representatives
that the Communist Party has re-
ceived reliable confidential informa-
ton showing that the Fascist
Nationalist Cabinet has formed a
plan to declare the Communist Party
election lists void after the expira-
ton of the time limit for filing lists
of candidates. In this way, said
PECK, the FasciSts seek to prevent the
filing of an alternative list by the
Communist Party and thus leave it
without candidates.
The Fascists reckon that in such a
situation part of the Communist
supporters would vote Socialist, but
that q great number would refrain
from voting and thus make it posi-
BILE for the government parties to
secure the required majority.

giving control of this decisive COM
mittee to the Hitler government.
Adenauer Protests
Adenauer, Catholic, president of the
Prussian State Council, has declared
that the Hindenberg decree violates
the Leipzig decision of the Supreme
Court and the Constitution. Adenauer
stated that he is therefore unable to
recognize Won Papens right to re-
place Braun and refused to take part
in the session of the committee.
With the Fascist president of the
Diet, Kerrl, Won Papen then de-
cided formally to dissolve the Diet
and hold new elections on March 5.
More Serious Conflicts
There we're further bloody con-
hicts yesterday between FascistS, and
Communist and Socialist workers:
In Charlottenberg Fascists shot and

TOKYO, Feb. THE japanese
Government is considering plans for
further speeding up its frantic war
preparations, including the establish
ment of a Council of National De-
tense to set its armed forces on a war
time footing and additional huge APP
preparations for the army and navy.
1t is generally admitted that these
vast military preparations are not
solely connected with the present
robber against China, but are in pre-
paration for major conflict. The
increased financial burden on the al
ready tottering Japanese economy
brought an Interpolation in the bud

asked whether the war preparations
were being made with the United

Big War Appropriation
While present military supplies and
munitions greatly exceed the stocks
accumulated preceding the war be-
tween Tsarist Russia and Japan, the
Japanese factories are working over
time on government war orders.
Recently the government appro-
priated the huge sum of 100000, 900
yen for the army. It is now con-
templating increasing this appro-
priation.

IL provides minimum wages OF
$l2 In the south and $13 In the
north. Administrators Hugh John
son estimated this means an aver
age increase of 80 per cent In mill
wages.
The code limits workers to a
maximum OF 40 hours q week and
machines to so hours. johnson said
this would bring employment In
the cotton textile industry up to
$4,000, not only absorbing all mill
hands who have been unemployed
since 1929, but requiring 10 per
cent more workers than In tho
peak year 1927.
The Limitation on machine hours
is to guard against over-production
which might nullify the effects OF
the attempt to spread employment
and increase mass purchasing pow
err.
The code abollshes child labor,
provides for u plan for eventual
home ownership for mill workers,
brings the white-collar group into
the requirements for minimum
wages and maximum hours, re-
stricts extensions OF tho controvert-
ed "stretch-out" system and pro-
vides safeguards against possible
abuses.
In 10 conditions attached to the
code by executive order, the pres
ident sets up safeguards against
possible abuses by any recalcitrant
members of the industry who
might desire to dodge certain pro-
visions.
These conditions, significant also
because of similar actions to come
in other industries, may be sum
married. as follows:

limited to the 80-hour machine
