CabmenEndStrike:
Agrees
Take Strikers Back
New Company Union In
Bronx; Men Refuse to
Accept 1t

NEW YORK.-The strike Of the
ITS taxi drivers at the Parmelee
Christopher st. garage ended yes
terday after the company agreed to
take all drivers back to work who
were active in the recent general
strike.
The men in this garage struck
following the conclusion of the gen
eral strike against attempts of the
company to discriminate against
active strikers.
A drive has now been opened by
the Taxi Drivers Union Of Greater
New York to strengthen the union
garage committees throughout the
city, Samuel Orner, president Of the
union said yesterday.
A meeting of garage chairmen
will be held at pm. today at 1923
W. 18th st. where plans for
strengthening the garage commit
tees will be taken up. The garage
chairmen will also work out plans
for struggle against the blacklist
and the revocation Of licenses Of
drivers who were arrested on the
picket line.
An attempt to foist a company
union on the haclmen Of the Pub
lie Cab Corp, a section of the Radio
Fleet, at Witlock and Longfellow
AYES, Bronx, failed Wednesday
afternoon.
The dispatcher of the garage. Mr..
Goldberg, called 60 day men to-
gether in the garage at 1 pm. and
10 night men at S pm. where he
lectured them on the necessity Of
forming new organization" which
he proposed to call the Public Cab
Corporation Employees Chapter.
Goldberg told the drivers that
the new organization would have
on its board four representatives of
the company and five for the driv-
ers. He said that he had worked
out an insurance scheme and that
the men would have to pay Is cents
a week dues.
The hacKmen unanimously OBJ
jected to this new company union.
When asked if this organization
would be affiliated to all Radio ga
RACES, Goldberg answered, mo"
Asked if a driver could go to work
in another Radio garage if he was
fired out of the Public Cab Chap
ter, Goldberg again answered mo {"
Goldberg asked the drivers to
vote to accept the company union.
Nobody voted for it. He said that
he will hold secret balloting Fri
day. where all drivers must cast
their vote as to what union they
wish to represent them.

will only get two days work week, -

-..-
ing an attack on militant union
lists in the local and on the execu-
tive committee.
While Collins and Thompson have
been soft-soaping workers, throw
ing overheard their demands for a
20 per cent increase in wages voted
several weeks ago, the company has
been cutting wages, firing militant
workers and planting its stool
pigeons on the executive committee
of the local union.
The revolt flared into the open
when the local union called a mass
meeting last night to consider a
strike action over the bitter opposi-
ton of Collins and Thompson. At
the meeting held at Amity Temple
members of the local booed and
howled down Collins when he tried
to throw cold water on the strike
sentiment. He was frequently in
terrupted by calls, What about our
20 per cent increase?" And when he
urged the men to have their COM
mittee go to the company office
and get things Strengthened out
there, Meyer, fighting vice presi-
dent of the local, jumped up and
said, That's all we have been do
ing. We want action!"
Collins tried to incite the workers
by holding up leaflets issued by the
rank and file movement of the
Motor Products local union and
launched an attack on Communists,
but he didn't succeed.
This morning, after walking out.
workers held another meeting in
Amity Temple, where Meyer called
for mass picketing to keep the plant
shut tight. Picket captains were
elected and lines were thrown
around both gates, with women and
young workers predominant among
the pickets.
The strikers followed the mill
tant tactics of the A. w. u. which
led successful Motor Products
strike last year The A. w. U. gave
its fullest support to the struggle,
calling on all strikers to elect a
broad rank and file strike commit
tee representing every department
and to spread a walkout to the
Briggs, Hudson and other plants.
NEW YORK.-A dispatch in yes
terday's capitalist papers quoted
Miss Frances Perkins, Secretary of
Labor, as saying, There is no strike
wave" This cool denial of the facts,
Is evidently only the expression of
a wish by this strikebreaking lady,
as the following summary reports
of strikes throughout the country
amply indicate:

delegation of the tenants Of 425
East 9Th ST, which visited the
banks renting agents yesterday to
demand an answer to the tenants
demands that the bank halt its cam
paign to evict Cyril Briggs and his
family because they are Negroes.
The discrimination against Mr..
Briggs is not particular or iso-
lated case, the banks spokesman,
a Mr.. Howe, told the delegation.
Discrimination against Negroes is
general, he suavely continued,
failing however, to explain that 1t
is fostered by the banks and other
capitalist institutions. The city

all know. he knowingly winked at
the delegation. I'VE are not doing
anything unusual in serving a
notice on Mr.. Briggs to vacate the

The delegation, headed by Hy

that the tenants of 425 East 9Th st.
