ing that the U.M.WA. international
convention reopen the wage and
hour scale Of the coal code, Bunsen-
vile Local $500 Of the UMW.A., with
a membership of 1,7O0, passed a ser
les Of 10 resolutions to be presented
at the convention, which opens in
Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 23rd.
This local previously adopted a
series Of resolutions which we're pub
lished in the Daily Worker, against
the strikebreaking policy of the John
L. Lewis machine.
Among the additional resolutions
passed the following:
Whereas: Article of the Interna-
tional Constitution conflicts with Ar
ticle XIV, Section II, Paragraph III.
by denying members of the U. M.
w. of A. from accepting membership
in the Communist Party, a legal poll
teal Party recognized by the United
States Government, and the United
States Constitution grants the Amer
lean people the right to belong to a
political party of their own choosing;
therefore be it
Resolved: That the words Commu-
mist Party be stricken from Article
XIV, Section II, of Paragraph III.
Whereas: Due to the fact that pro-
Visional officers in various districts
Of the U.MW.A. have been established
by the International President. and
approved by the International Execu-
tive Board; therefore be IL
Resolved: We demand an election
by referendum vote of the miners of
local unions in good standing Of all
branches of the U. M. W. of A., to
elect their officers as soon as the re-
spective districts become self sustain
ing.
Whereas: Officials Of the various
branches of the U. M. w. of A. that
have been defeated in elections or
those who have failed to be re-elecU-
ed, have been appointed as spe-
cial field workers, international rep
resentatives, organizers, etc, and
Whereas: The membership has
shown by referendum vote that they
are dissatisfied with them and their
services are no longer desired, there
fore be it
Resolved: That these defeated off,
Gals shall return to employment in
the mine or other employment, other
than acting as official representatives
Of the U. M. w. of A., for at least
one year.

Furniture Strike in
Minneapolis Broken
By RA and AT of |

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI. Jan. IA
The N, r. A. Regional Labor Board
adopted an open strikebreaking de-
cIslon when, on Tuesday night. thev
ordered the striking upholSterery who
have been on strike for moro than
three months to go back to work i'm
mediately, without conceding o singls
one Of their demands.
The A. F. OF L. officials particle
pated in this Sell-out, having re-
! quested the N. r. A. to make a
binding decision, and agreeing in ad-
vance to accept the decision no mat
ter what 1t was. The NJ r. A. an
nounced that the decision is binding.
and that the National Labor Board
has the authority to enforce it. The
A. F. of L. officials brazenly support
| the decision, and, while admitting
that it is absolutely unsatisfactory
to the strikers, they announced they
Will urge the workers to accept the
sell-out at a meeting called for
Thursday night. The widespread in
dignation of the rank and file of
the strikers at the sell-out makes it
doubtful Of the strikers will accept
the decision.
The N. R. A. Board decreed that
the piecswork system should con-
tinue. This is one of the main
grievances against which the strikers
have been fighting An election will
be held in each plant within 80 days.
but this will probably be farce sim
liar to the Weirton Steel Corpora
ton experience recently in Pennsyl-
yania. The scabs are to be retained,
and the returning strikers are to
share the work with them. The
open-shop policy of the employers is
declared in keeping with the N. R. A.
provisions.
While the above decisions are
compulsory, another one in which 1t
is proposed that the minimum wage
shall be SIS cents an hour, is only
recommended" to the employers.

sand unemployed families cut off
from the relief in one week. This is

This is part Of the program Of
slashing relief expenditures in Janu-
airy to one-half the November fig
ure, as demanded by the Federal and
State Emergency Relief Administra-
tions. A total of 33,038 families we're
still on the relief list on Tuesday,
but their numbers are slated to be
greatly reduced.
AT the same time firing of C. w.
A. workers has started. The Unem-
ployed Councils and the Relief Work
ers' Protective Association are or
ganizing struggles against the drop
ping Of unemployed families from
the relief list and against the firing
Of G. w. A. workers. These Strug-
giles are part Of the preparations for
the National Convention Against
Unemployment, to be held in Wash
ington, D. c., Feb. 8 to 5, at which
Michigan is scheduled to have so
delegates, with &c of them from
Wayne County (the Detroit area).

st. Louis Workers
Force CWA to Pay
Overdue Wages
Seize Trucks; Drive to
City Office; Demand
and Receive Paw

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Jan. IA. Hun
dreds of C. w. A. workers, employed
as paint washers on the Koch Hos
pita1 here, seized the c. w. A.. trucks.
drove IA miles to the C. W. A. Office.
and forced the officials to give them
their back wages.
When their back pay did not arrive
on the job, the worker gathered in
groups to decide what should be
done. When the men did not return
to work, the foremen told them that
they would be fired. Incensed by the
foremen's threats, the men seized the
trucks and drove to town.
Strike meetings were held on every
bus and truck on the day to town.
Grievance comittees were set up, and
organizational committee elected to
organize the men on the job.
On arriving at the G. w. A. pay
station, the men demanded and re-
ceived their pay Immediately.
The Wall Washers Section of the
Relief Workers Union will send a
committee to the G. W. A. head
quarters today to demand that the
time clerks receive pay for overtime
work which they have been forced to
do and for which they have not yet
received pay.
When they received their pay on
Jan. IL, they were informed that they
would receive the fiat rate of pay
for that work of $25, with no allow
ance for seven and one-half hours
of overtime which they had done dur
ing the last week of December.
Two hundred and fifty C. w. A.
workers held mass meeting here
on Jan. 7 and organized the p. w. A.
and G. w. A. Workers Union.

Workers Denied the
Right 10 Organize
On Civil Works Jobs
Arrested, TerrOrize d .
Fired on Slightest
PrOvOcaiiOB

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan. &c. W.
A. workers here who were fired for
organizing workers on the job. after
a meeting Of G. W. A. state officials
at Columbus, were informed that
they have a right to organize into
unions but that such activity
was "agitating the men" and
for that reason the suspension" was
justified.
Because the workers who were
fired believed that they had the right
to organize, they went before the
c. w. A. complaint board, headed by
A. V. Cannon. snd demanded that
they be reinstated, and paid for the
time lost.
Instead OF reinstating the men,
Cannon met with state officials, who
confirmed his union-smashing tao
tics of firing militant leaders.
The men were fired from G. w. A.
jobs and arrested ten minutes be-
fore mass meeting which had been
called for the lunch hour.
A number Of workers organizations.
and particularly the Relief Workers
Union, are protesting this decision Of
the c. w. A. officials.
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio.-One nun
dred and twenty c. W. A. workers
were fired here after the finding in
a tool shed Of what was said to have
been Communist literature"
Eugene Callan, c. w. A. foreman,
said that a few Of the workers might
be rehired, but that they would have
to re-register.
SAN ANTONIO, Texas.-Tom
Reagan and Ollie Arnett, c. w. A.
workers employed at the Alazan
Creek project, were fired last week
after they had led a committee to
protest against ill-treatment by
foreman who would not let the work
ers warm themselves at bonfires.
They had also protested against be-
ing forced to work overtime without
pay when tools were late in arriving.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa.-James T.
Brown, c. w. A. worker who was
fired for selling the Daily Worker,
for being an "agitator," and for sug-
costing to the workers that they in
sist upon wage increases to meet the
rising cost of living, was reinstated
after mass committee of workers
called upon the C. w. A. officials de-
handing his reinstatement.
The c. w. A. officials refused to
meet with the committee, but at the
insistence of the workers admitted
Brown to the regular secret session
Of so-called impartial judges on the
arbitration board.
The impartial judges consisted Of
two C. w. A officials, two social
workers, and broker, acting as
chairman.

Bad Marks for Motorists
That Everybody May Read

The municipal authorities of Bel
grade, the capital city of Yogoslavia
have adopted a curious tsystem OF
punishment for motoristf.
The license plates issued in Bel
grade are larger than usual and
have a considerable blank space
which is used TO record convictions
A conviction for any motoring of.
Tense is registered on the license
plate in the shape of a white cross
The result is that the police OF
other motorists can instantly spot
the bad or dangerous driver.
Five crosses on the plate means
the permanent canceling of the

Almost all housekeepers keep on
the pantry shelves supply Of the
better known sauces. At least chilli
sauce, ketchup, one Of the worcester
shire style sauces, tabasco or one of
the other sharp sauces of the same
type are usually to be found among
these supplies. Sometimes we find,
as well, mushroom and walnut
ketchup, anchoyy essence, chutney
and occasionally soy sauce.
In some households these sauces
are used only as table accessories.
They will appear with meat and
fish, to be added to their individal
taste. In the household where cook
ing is practieed as an art, we find,
however, that they are used as con-
diments as well to flavor soups and
sauces, canapes and sandwiches.
1t seems to me that a dash of wor-
cestershire or tablespoon Of ketch-
up, for instance, often lifts a soup
from the usual TO the unusual. A
tablespoon or two of chilli sauce or
chutney added to a plain drawn but
ter or white sauce gives a flavor in
describable but appetizing. 1t is diff
ficult to give special recipes for the
addition of these sauces TO ordinary
foods, because all of these blendings
should be made to taste-good taste.
The good cook is not afraid to expe-
riment with seasonings, but she
knows that they must be used with
light hand. Prejudice against GER
tain seasonings has invariably been
engendered by an over use of them
when they were introduced. There
is curry, for instance. How many
times, says food expert, l have
found that persons who say they
lust can't bear curry ask for Sec
ond helpings of hartford sauce. This
sauce, by the way, is wonderful with
lobster, crab and shrimp, served as a
cocktail or as main supper course.
The sauce popularity known as vim
aigrette is made differently by al
most every cook. It's basis is a french
dressing and it can be varied in any
way you like. Chopped watercress
and minced celery are often used in
stead, as an addition to the ingred-
tents suggested in the recipe given
today.
l often use these to flavor creamed
butter to spread sandwiches or
canapes. This gives a fiavoring foun-
dalton, no matter what is the rest of
the filling or garnish. One of the
easiest and best hot canapes to serve
with cocktails is made of rounds or
finger lengths of bread, spread with
ketchup butter and then baked until
light brown and crisp.
A dash of one or more of these
sauces is often an addition to the
flavor of a tomato juice cocktail. 1
also like a dash of tarragon vinegar
for this purpose. Have you noticed
that every hostess has her own spe-
cial recipe for this popular first
course beverage? ITO taste" is the
best directions for seasoning it, but
have plenty of seasonings on hand to
make the perfect flavor.

After practicing about a week,
the long-legged Fresno youth
cleared 6 feet 4 inches several
times recently.
With regard to his forthcom-

had little to say.
"He's about the beVt indoor

said, intimating, however, that
he expected to beat the East
erner at least once.
"Out of four or five meets
