Later Senator Murphy of Iowa
treasured A. D. Mallard, represen-
tative of the Full Fashioned Hosiery

complained of the bills "ambigu-

You want to take this view of

In short, the Wagner bill as it
finally energies will very probably
be stripped of all provisions which
even make substantial promises to
labor. The assurance that it will
open the door wide to company
unions is in line with the Roosevelt
auto settlement, which even A. F.

company unions.
Dennison insisted that company
unions" must remain as a COM
peting form" of labor organization.
Then he boldly added: Il have no

there will be more company unions

he insisted that if this were not re-

get new leaders" and that new
movements would result in enough
strikes and bloodshed to set the
whole country blindly against any
form of unionism." To Dennison.

To Protest Arrest
And Framing of
Bridgeport TOilerS
Socialist Mayor and
Police Unite Against
Workers
By ], S. SOLVENT

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, March %.
Although police testified that the
Socialist Mayor McLeyy had given
orders to allow no more speaking,
and for the police to disperse the
snow shovelers' demonstration,
Judge Hugh Lavery found Sam
Krieger and one other defendant
guilty of breach and levied a fine
of $50 and costs last week. An ap-
peal was Immediately made.
1t was quite evident from the evil
dence given by the police that the
sole responsibility for the clubbing
Of the workers and the subsequent
arrest of three snow shovelers
rested squarely on the shoulders of
the Mayor, for all the witnesses
both for the prosecution and the
defense testified that there was no
disturbances or trouble until Nc
Leyy'S order for no more speaking
and for the dispersal of the crowd.
The first witness for the state,
Captain O'Connell, said that he
thought that there was not enough
clubbing; that the police acted with
much restraint and only a few we're
dubbed. 1t is interesting to COM
pare his statement to the one made
by Fred Schwartzkopf, city clerk
and right hand man to Jasper Nc
Levy, in speech delivered near
New Haven. He said, in praising
the police for the manner in which
they handled the demonstration, eff
were handling the situation, I
would not have shown such re-
straint. If had club in my hand
would have used it the way it
should have been used"
The police made despicable at
tempt to frame San Krieger, claim
ing that he called to the snow
shovelers to arm themselves; to
bring blackjacks, ammunition, etc.,
to the city plaza demonstration
which was to be held on the eve
ming of the same day. The defense
so discredited this testimony that
the prosecutor did not even mem
ton this in his summary.
A city-wide protest is being
planned against the decision of the
court, which did not seem to be in
accordance with the evidence pro-
duced in court, namely, that Nc
Levy was entirely responsible for
the clubbing and arrest of workers
who only wanted pay that was com
ing to them.
1t was clearly seen from the
statements of the police, the court
Fred Schwartzkopf and the Mayor
that there was a real united front
between them. They all agreed
that there was not enough clubbing
and regretted the restraint of the
police. The role that McLevy and
other socialist leaders played in the
demonstration exposed them once
again to the workers of Bridgeport.

WASHINGTON, March 28.-"Fur-

ing President Roosevelt's return two
weeks hence from his Florida fishing
jaunt, Alexander F. Whitney, Chair

from a conference with Roosevelt,
Eastman and several railroad own

he had laid "the facts" before the
President.
Should a disagreement occur dur

Milk Trusts Launch
Drive to CutWageS,
Wipe Out Dealers
BY Daily Worker Midwest Bureau

BY Daily Worker Midwest Bureau
CHICAGO, March 28.-The Chi
cago milk trusts have launched a
price war with the triple objective
of putting over wage cut on the
milk drivers, wiping out the small
dealers and enforcing Roosevelt's
A.AA. schemes on the farmers.
The price of milk here has been
reduced to eight cents per quart
after a recent reduction to nine
from ten cents, but the consuming
masses will pay the piper as soon
as the trusts can accomplish their
present detectives and then raise
the prices again.
AS the 375 small milk dealers of
the city are preparing a fight
against the trusts and the A. A. A.
at meeting tonight word comes
that more than two hundred driv-
ers were notified their jobs would
end May first. This is seen as the
beginning of an intensive drive by
Bordens, Bowman and the Borden's
subsidiary, Weiland, to cut wages
of both inside and outside help.
On three occasions in the last few
months, the drivers have voted
against the trusts proposed pay
cuts from the present scale of forty
dollars per week. The union of
f1cials, notorious for their racket
ing and class collaboration, could
not help but bow before the unani-
nous desire of the workers to fight
any cut.

Restore Wage Cut
After CWA Union
Enters Protests
Back Pay Lost Through
Wage Cut to Be Paid
in Full

MANSFIELD, Ohio, March 28.-
Following protests filed by the G..
w. A. Workers Relief Union here,
the C.W.A. administration restored
pay cuts to skilled and unskilled
workers. The order was made
retroactive to March 2, the day the
pay cut went into effect. Under the
new rates, skilled G. W. A. workers
will continue to receive $120 an
hour and unskilled will get 65 cents
an hour. In addition, all dis
charged G. w. A. workers, who have
been fired on RooseveltS demo
bilization orders will receive checks
paying them the difference between
the old rate and the new.
The G. w. A. Workers Relief
Union, which has led the workers
here in militant struggle against
the Roosevelt firings and wage cuts,
will change its name on April 1 to
the Workers Protective Union.

snow fell in the morning, and a
bitter wind was blowing in from
