Sympathy Action With
Carmen Considered
By Other Trades
BY BILL DUNE
Especial TO the Daily worker)

S AIN FRANCISCO, Cal,
July 20.-The strike of Mari
time Workers headed by
Harry Bridges continues.
The Market Street Carmen,
members of the Amalgamated
Association, have voted prac-
tically unanimously against
returning to work. A COM
pany union formerly dom
mated the situation but shortly be-
fore and during the general strike
the A. A. was organized.
The men have made demands for
higher wages and working condi-
tons. The car lines are being oper-
ated, however, with strike breakers
under police protection and so far
there has been no attempt to picket
the car bans or lines. Further SYM
pathy strike action in support Of
the carmen is possibility.
The statement in previous dis
patches that there was no real de-
sire to return to work on the part
of the rank and file involved in the
general strike even in face of the
barrage of employer propaganda,
the organized red scare and the
deluge of demagogy and threats
with which the press has been in
undating the working class, is con-
f1rmed by the closeness of the vote
in the strike committee on the
question of the return to work. The
vote was 174 against return to
work and 1911 for. The workers we're
betrayed but not defeated. There is
small comfort in the situation for
the open shop employers, the press,
the local union bureaucrats or the
Roosevelt administration The hang
ers-on of the employers are vent
ing their anger on the Communist
Party and all organizations sus-
pected of communist sympathies in

Marine Strike Holds Firm:
Frisco Streetcar Men Vote
Against Returning to Work
Police, Hired Gangs, Wreck All Union and
Communist Halls; Burn Western Worker
Plant; Govt Manhunt On For MIitants

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2O.-Faced with a
renewed outbreak of strikes in Seattle and Port
land, the ship-owners, hired thugs, and police, all
up and down the Coast, broke loose in new
series of raids, raging day and night through the
streets in organized gangs, wrecking meeting
places, homes, union halls, and printing plants
in a reign of ''red-bating' lynch hysteria strong
Iy reminiscent of the war days of l9I7-l8 and
of the notorious Palmer raids in 1919.
An organized man-hunt, coas-wide in its pro-
portions has been instituted by the whole Governmental
chine led by the police and secret service for all in
connected with radical unions organizations
o the Communist Party.
AS part of this savage terrorism against all militant
elements in the marine strike the printing plant issuing
the Western Worker organ of the Communist Party
burnt to the ground warning to all other printing
plants not to accept printing orders from the Communist
Party.
All through the night, hired thugs and "vigante hood

Especial to the DAILY wOrker)

Especial to the Daily worker)
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, July 20.
Trucks with police armed with
shotguns and high powered rifles
rushed through the picket lines of
striking truck drivers today, firing
indiscriminately into men, women
and children. Many were wound
ed some are expected to die.
Troops ordered out by Gov. Olson,
Farmer Laborite, are occupying
the streets armed with mounted
machine guns, while thugs dressed
in uniforms, patrol the entire
wholesale district.
While the strikers were being
shot down in cold blood by the
military and thugs, Rev. Haas,
representing the new Labor ReIa-
tions Board, continued his efforts
to strangIe the strike on the basis
of having the men return to work
and leave all questions of wages,
conditions, etc., to arbitration.
Haas has been holding confer
ences yesterday and today with
employers.

The second is to surround the Communist Party with
such mountain of filthy SANDER and fasehood as to per
nit the employers and their governmental apparatus t.
drive the Communist Party into ilegality.
In both of these purposes the brutal shipowners AM
exploiters will not succeed.
For if anything bursts through the lies of the
capitalist press it is the revelation that every action
of violence, every raid against the Communist and
Marine Union headquarters, was cold-bloodedly en-
gineered by the shpowners with the cooperation of
the police.

SEATTLE, July 20.-Police today

The 1000 strikers were gathered

given.
As the excrucietingly painful and
injurious gas-borlbs exploded in the
midst of the strikers ranks, many
of them surged forward to battle
with the cops. Against the swing

police, strikers used sticks and
stones. Many of them, Selling the
bombs before they exploded, hurled
them back into the faces of the
police.
Several strikers were hurled into

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Signa-
tory nations Of the Washington and
London naval treaties should main

preserve the balance of peace and
security" Admiral William H.
Standby, chief Of naval operations.
said late yesterday in an address
sponsored by the American Legion.
THE peace treaty that closed the
World war left many international
difficulties unsolved, particularly in
the Pacific and far east. All of the
treaties which followed must be
considered as whole, closely and
inextricably associated toward es-
tablishing among all nations a feel
ing of peaceful security" the ad-
miral said.
"As it is incumbent upon each
signatory government of the Wash
lngton and London treaties not to
exceed the limitations fixed by
treaty, so it is, in my opinion, an
implied obligation to maintaani it's
naval stregnth to fall below that
level, the balance of the whole peace
and security structure is deranged. "
He said the United States has led
the world movement of disarma-
ment by example in the hope that
other nations would follow, but that
they did not.
Instead, today we find the world
