The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-12-08

Inc aluminium workers In New
Kensington have sent copies Of gae
resolution for a convention, not
only to Green. but to all other
locals of the union.
Rank and File Program
The resolution was passed by an
overwhelming majority, and calls
for regular election of delegates
from the floor of each local, in
place of the appointed delegates
who attended the last national con-
ference of aluminium workers.
Some time ago, Green had at
tempted to forestall convention by
conveying to the aluminium locals
the information that no national
union would be set up yet, due to
the inability of the present unions
to carry the financial burden of an
International office.
In the rank and file program pre-
sented in a leaflet following the
sellout of the last strike, four of
the points were a. for a national
industrial union in the aluminium
industry; b. for the immediate
adoption of constitution and by
laws for the union: g for the call
ing of a national convention of
elected delegates; d. that the rank
and file, who are the union, shall
dictate. and not be dictated to by
g. handful of A. F. of l.. leaders"
The national executive council
has been forced to accept the first,
third and last points named, and
a constitution and bylaws are al
ready reported to be drawn up
ready for adoption by the local!
Williams Stays Away
Dave Williams, A. F. of L. or
ganizer who controlled the union
at New Kensington during the last
strike, has not dared to attend a
local union meeting there for sew
eral weeks. Williams isolation has
been the result of many whitening
attacks launched against his poll
cies by rank and file leaders on
the floor of union meetings. When
he discovered he could not defend
himself, he attempted to save his
face by remaining away from meet
ings and writing letters to the
union.
Even his activities in the A. F..
of L. district have been curtailed,
and it is reliably reported that fed
eral locals in Latrobe, Pa, will not
allow him to speak now because

have been elected as delegates.
Owing to the poverty Of these
workers and their inability to raise
funds. however, every help must be
extended to make it possible for
them to reach Washington. There
are no workers in America in such
desperate need of social protection
in the form of adequate unemploy-
ment insurance as the Negro peo-
pies, who represent about twelve per
cent of the working population.
The National Sponsoring Com
mittee urges all sympathetic organ
izations in the North, both Negro
and white to make special contribu-
tons to assure the attendance Of
these workers at the Congress.
News of plans and all activities in
various localities is requested by the
National Sponsoring Committee.
When delegates are elected, when a
considerable distribution or sale of
supplies is organized and carried
through, when demonstrations take
place, the National Committee wants
to know about it. A publicity COM
mittee has been set up to send out
news on the congress, 1t is import
ant that all preparations and activ-
tiles in connection with the congress
be publicized
Post Card Campaign
A post card demanding the passage
of the Workers Unemployment In
sursnce Bill has been printed by the
National Committee. This card con-
tains the famous question asked by
President Roosevelt a few months
ago: Are you better of than you
were last year, are your working
conditions better, is your faith in
your own individual future more
firmly grounded?" And the work.
ers reply: mo, therefore we demand
unemployment and social insur-
ANGEL"
One million of these car6s should
be mailed to President Roosevelt
and to senators and congressman
before Christmas. In this way the
government will be informed Of the
mass support behind the National
Congress for Unemployment and
Social Insurance. When Congress
knows that large masses are no
longer being fooled by sweet speech
es and promises and by fake I'M
employment insurance and relief
schemes, they will be forced to give
greater consideration to our pro-
gram the National Sponsoring
Committee declares.

Not Lawyers, But Union
Members MiIitancy
Won Victory
BY George Morris
Article l

The successful strike of $4,000 silk
and rayon dyers, having taken place
when the bitter memory of the be-
trayed General Textile Strike is still
fresh in the minds of the workers,
gives a clear contrast between mis-
leadership by A. F. of L. officials,
and rank and file control.
The task for the militant rank
and file workers among the textile
workers is made simpler. The work
ers will understand the effectiveness
of rank and file control much more
easily if given the Paterson victory
as an example. Learning the les
sons of the dyers' strike is an imme-
date duty for every active member
of the textile unions.
This is especially important in
view OF the efforts being made by
certain of the higher officials in the
Federation of Silk and Rayon Dy-
ers GU. T. W., and by government
representatives, to cover up the real
reasons for yhe successful conclu-
sion of the strike.
At the very mass meeting where
the workers voted to approve the
settlement proposals, Nathan w.
Sheferman, Federal mediator, told
the workers that the settlement was
chiefly due to the efforts of Eman-
uel Shavik, attorney for the bosses,
and Harry Joelson, former judge,
but now attorney for the dyers'
union. Mr.. Shefferman said:
Both Mr.. Shavik and Mr.. Joelson
proved square shooters. They
played the game on the level and
fairly. Both looked after the inter-
ests of their clients, and yet sought
not tc take advantage of each other.
They were both broad and gener-
Gus enough to realize that a settle
ment was necessary for the best in
terests of everyone concerned in the
industry as we'll as for the city it
self"

ers that they owed thanks" to the
