TRADE EXPANSION
PLANS FORMATIVE
Peek Submits Graph Showing
How SurpIuSeS Can Be

~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Plans for extension of foreign COM
n1erce by reciprocal trading are still in
the twilight zone No formal organiza-
ton has been created to direct the bar
tering.
George N Peek, upon retiring as chief
Of the Agricultural Adjustment Admin
tstration. was designated foreign trade
adviser to the President. He was not
named to head any definite organiza-
ton, however.
Peek's report to the President, carry
ing graph suggesting how various de-
partmentS and governmental organlza-
tionS should be co-ordinated in making
the drive to sell American surpluses
abroad, is under consideration by the
President, who has not yet authorized
the creation of any foreign trade body,
but has submitted the chart to various
interested departments for comment.
The President also has under consid-
Grafton a report from the Executive
Commercial Policy Committee which
gave a detailed picture of what the
United States sells abroad and what it
buys. This report was prepared by an
interdepartmental committee headed by
Acting Secretary of State Phillips.
AS the President has indicated, he
will seek additional legislation from
Congress to facilitate the new recipro-
cal tariff trading
Whether the new body will be at
tached to the State Department, the
Treasury Department, the Department
of Commerce or some other government
al organization is still matter of con-
lecture In some quarters the idea pre-
walls that the foreign trade organiZa-
tion will be an independent body which
will have the cooperation of interested
departments as well as of the Tariff
Commission, the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration, the National Re-
covery Administration and the Recon-
struction Finance Corporation.
No Office has been assigned to Peek
since his retirement from the Agricul-
tural Adjustment Administration after
disagreement on policy with Secretary
Wallace.

AIDES Defense Presses
Issue of Negro Rights
In Disbarment Battle

BALTIMORE, Md, Dec, 10.-Aet-
ing as counsel for Bernard AIDES,
white international Labor Defense
attorney, who is on trial for dis
barment before the Supreme Bench
Of Baltimore, Joseph Brodsky, of the
staff of the I. L. D., last week
charged that the Baltimore Bar AS
ISOLATION, which is bringing the ae-
ton against AIDES, has violated its
own charter and constitution by
barring Negro attorneys and women
from membership.
The proceedings against AIDES
grew out of his challenge to the
lily-white jury system of the Mary
land courts, in the case of Fuel Lee
and other Negro workers whom he
has defended. AIDES is being de-
Tended in this case by staff con-
sisting of Ben j. Davis, Jr., Brodsky
and Edward Kuntz.
AS the trial opened Wednesday
morning, Brodsky demanded to
know why the association has taken
no action on a letter demanding
that Negro men and women lawyers
be admitted to the organization
while at the same time it is push
ing SO vigorously the action against

Article III

WHILE there is common agree
w ment that the new contract of
the silk and rayon dyers is big
gain for the workers, some workers
ask if the contract couldn't have been
still better if the strike would have
been prolonged. In order to answer
this, it will be necessary to review
some of the important events prior
to and in the course of the strike.
Although the workers on the whole
scored significant victory, there
can be no denial that some points
in the contract are Objectionable.
Among the main reasons for fail
ure to score still greater gains, we
could list: u The strikebreaking
tactics of the International leader
ship of the United Textile Workers,
OF which the Federation of Silk and
Rayon Dyers is part. p Failure
to organize the Pennsylvania and
Rhode Island mills. 81 Splitting
tactics of the Lovestonites. d Will
ingness of the Federation of Overs
to accept the rejected November 10
contract. 81 Weakness and narrow
ness in the organization of the rank
and file group in the dyers' union.
Let us take each of these reasons.
Even before the strike was called,
it was already evident that the chief
enemy the workers had to contend
with is Francis German and the
U. T. w. officials. At first, the en-
ployers would not even answer the
request of the union for confer
ence to negotiate a new contract.
The employers were confident that
German would place the dyers under
the truce arranged with President
Roosevelt for the half million tex
tile workers who were on strike.
Their offer was the renewal of the
contract for six months more and

County Stops Payment
To Small Omaha Stores
On Grocery Vouchers

OMAHA, Neb., Dec. 1o.-Claiming
that it has not enough money to
meet its current expenses, Douglas
County has deferred payment of all
bills until next August. This in
cludes the honoring of county gro
Gerry orders, and many of the
smaller groceries will be forced to
refuse to cash relief orders issued
by the county.
When similar action was taken
some months ago by the cunty, gro
GERS cashed the orders at the banks
at a 10 per cent discount, which
meant loss in the case of the
small grocers who operate on a very
small margin.
A large number of independent
grocers in the city have been sum-
marily cut off from handling fed
eral relief orders on various pre-
texts, such as violations of N. r. A.
4oSOA SOASos Ii Vh4C NooO, 4OA AAA-
stance, the excuse was that the gro-
Gerry owner and his wife were both
working long hours as proprietors.
These grocers have not been given
hearing, but we're arbitrarily de-
prived of what has amounted, in
the case of greeers in the poorer
neighborhoods, to their only source
of business.

MONROE, Ohio, Dec. 10.-Fired

clothing and the freedom of two
arrested workers, the unemployed
here under the leadership of the

abolition of forced labor.
Last week, after forcing the relief
administrator to meet with their full

for immediate aid to all emergency
cases, and issuance of clothing
which heretofore had not been
given. In addition, two workers who
were arrested for stealing coal
since the relief supplied no fuel

union actually performed strike
breaking services.
Jack Rubenstein, who was expelled
from the Communist Party in 1929,
together with Lovestone, is now in
the Socialist Party, and an organ
izer for the Dyers Federation in
Union City. Recently he was a
U,T.W. organizer in Pennsylvania.
Single Shop Settlements
In the early stages of the strike,
when the tieup was complete, and
the workers were more determined
than ever to spread the strike to the
outside regions, Rubenstein started
agitating for individual shop agree
ments, on the theory that "it will
split the BOSSES" He actually sue
ceeded in confusing some strikers
in Union City. Later he tried to
foist his plan upon the Paterson
shop chairmen, but they, being more
experienced workers, made short
work of him.
A settlement with individual
shops, or with groups of shops may
be in order in a situation when
strikers are demoralized, have lost
ground, and if there is danger that
large numbers will return to work.
Such settlements make the best out
of bad situation, and obtain the
most favorable terms for the work
ers under the circumstances. But
there was no such situation at any
time during the strike. In Paterson,
Passaic, Lodi and Rutherford where
about 30 per cent of the strikers
were concentrated, not a single
worker had returned. The spirit of
the strikers remained determined to
the very end.
Although Rubenstein's line was

Magyar Rally
Won to Fight
Against War

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 1o.-Pro-
posing united front not only of
Hungarian but of all South Slav or
CARNATIONS against war and fascism,
Emil Gardes spoke at a mass meet
ing of one thousand Hungarians
held here Friday night and called
by Hungarian reaetionaries in an
effort to rally support behind the
fascist dictator, Horthy.
Gardo's speech was received SO
favorably that the chairman had to
maneuver to pass some of their own
resolutions, and finally he was
forced to invite workers erganiza-
tons into the Hungarian society.
Caroline Ovcar, speaking in behalf
of Jugo-Slav workers groups, re-
eeived great applause when she APP
pealed for a united front against
both Jugo-Slav and Hungarian fas-
elsm. Leaflets on which were re-
printed an editorial of "Uj Eiore, y
which set forth the reasons behind
the depertations and explained the
war character of both fascist gov
ernments, were eagerly grabbed.
| Following the meeting, the Ma
tional Hungarian Bureau resolved
to- picket the Jugo-Slay consulate
against the danger of war and ex-
pulsion of Hungarians, the picket
ing to take place in unified action
with the Jugo-Slavs, Rumanians and
Slovak workers.
The Hungarian-Jugo Slav Action
Committee in calling for demon
stration Tuesday evening at the
Hungarian Home, 1ll-23 Buckeye
Road, took steps to broaden the
united front, demanding the cessa-
ton of deportations, of the oppres-
sion of minerities, the release of all
political prisoners, and calling for
the unity of the workers against war
and faseism.

Downs Law Spreading
Throughout Alabama

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. TO-
Birmingham's anti-labor Downs law
Is spreading from city to city. Last
week it was openly backed by the
Ku Klux Khan, which appeared be-
fore the Tarrant City Council with
the demand that the council make
mere possession of radical literature
a crime, as Birmingham has done.
Samuel Hall of Tarrant City
openly boosted that "citizenry
committee had already taken the
law into its own hands by threat
ening to attack all radicals and
militant workers who did not get
out of the city. He demanded that
the council pass an ordinance sim
liar to the Downs law.
A similar law has already been
passed in Bessemer City, which, like
Tarrant City, is just outside of Bir-
mingham. Bessemer is dominated
by the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad Company, a subsidiary of
the U. S. Steel Corporation.

ferring unemployed who are on
work relief to take the place Of
strikers in the walkout of 2s5 Office
machine mechanics here.
The warning of the Unemploy.
ment Council that Bulletin No. 1879
Of the Illinois Emergency Relief
Commission meant that the I. E.
R. c. was entering the field as
strikebreaking agency has thus come
true faster even than was expected.
This bulletin, dated Sept. q, 1884,
said that: "In case a relief client is
offered bona fide employment at a
rate Of pay which for full time en-
ployment would equal or exceed the
clients relief budget, and the client
refuses to accept such employment,
removal from the relief rolls should
be the immediate result"
On Oct. 10, $50 members of the
Once Machine Mechanics Union,
No. TIT, of the A. F. of L., went on
strike, Joined later by 20 dealer me-
chanics The demands are for rec
ignition Of the union and sS5 a
week scale. The big typewriter CON-
panies refuse to deal with the union.
The strike committee has pointed
out that although the companies
have increased charges for service
since 1929. wages Of employees have
been cut 80 to 40 per cent.
The original demands of the strik-
ers were for. a scale Of $3.50 per
month, two week vacation period,
and forty hour week. The matter
was referred to the Regional Labor
Board on Oct. 10. The board
brought in proposal for $3.50 a
month, which the union accepted,
but the employers refused to deal
with the union, except on an indi-
vidual basis with the men after they
would return to work.
One company, the Royal Type
writer Company, is carrying on ne
gotiations which may result in set

Workers Delegation,
Returning From USSR,
To Get Welcome Today
Had TravelIe d LOCO
Mile S Throughout
Soviet Territory

NEW YoRK-Today the Work
ers Delegation to the U. S. S. R.,
sponsored by the Friends Of the So
Wet Union, will return to the United
States. On shore they will be greet
ed by the Friends of the Soviet
Union.
The delegation left for the Soviet
Union on Oct. 20, and have since
then Travelled over more than 1000
miles of Soviet territory. While in
the Soviet Union, they took special
pains to visit the focal spots of in
terest, so as to be able to report,
on the basis of their personal ex-
| peFience, on the most vital questions
asked by Americans about the So
Wet Union, Thus, when the White
Guard Organizations were spreading
ISLANDERS about the famine in the
Ukraine, they visited the Ukraine,
and cahled over that the crops were
good, the farm equipment fine, and
crops abundant.
After they had been in Moscow
for ten days, H. Goldfrank, the head
Of the delegation declared in an in
terView to the Moscow Daily News
that everything from the Red Pu-
tilev Workers Club down to the
Moscow subway indicates rapid tenn
pc of Soviet workers and farmers
in their struggle for a Socialist So
eiety."
One of the most interesting men,
bers Of the delegation is Julius Wal
stead, South Dakota farmer who
went to the Soviet Union especially
to "let the farmers back home know
what's going on on all those COL
lectiye farms" He wanted to check
up on the reports that every COL
lective farm has movies once a
week"
The other members of the dele
cation went with equally open eyes.
Robert s. Wissner, a husky West
inghouse Electric worker, wanted to
know the state of railway eleetrifi-
cation and the problems of religious
freedom in the Soviet Union. Fred
Gunsser, Socialist, and member of
the American Federation of Hosiery
Workers in Philadelphia, wanted to
know the truth about Soviet trade
unions. v. Modjeski, Socialist and
Socialist candidate for Secretary of
State in Rhode Island was interest
ed in culture in the Soviet Union
and the living standards of the
workers. Sheffield, a Boston sea-
man, was anxious to know about
Soviet seamen.
On Wednesday, Dee, II, 1884, the
delegation will report on their ex-
periences in the u. S. 8. r. at Irving
Plaza Hall, Irving Place and 18th
ct, Justin Wise Tulin, attorney and
daughter of Rabbi Wise, will also
speak on the Significance of Trade
Union Delegations to the Soviet
Union. Pat Toohey, editor of Labor
Unity, will offieiate as chairman
and the F. S. U. Balalaika Orchestra
will provide the music.
