marily responsible for New York's

OF its quota. They have not con-
tributed even one-quarter of their
assigned quotas.
The Scandinavian Buro has en-
tered the campaign and has taken a
quota of S1,000-$500 for the Daily
Worker and the rest for the Scan
dinavian revolutionary press.
The District BurO Of the Ian
guage groups has been instructed
to call a meeting Immediately of
all fractions in the mass organ
izations, as first step in the in
tensified campaign. This is for
the purpose of instructing the
fractions they will be regarded as
responsible for what results-goOd
or bad-are produced within the
the next few weeks. The fractions
are to be held responsible for the
forming of committees in every
organization for the purpose of

A telegram of protest against the
attitude of Ben Golden of the Re-
gional Labor Board in connection
with the strike conducted by the
Independent Smoking Pipe Makers
Union, 800 Broadway, against the
Supreme Briar Pipe Company, 1875

Executive Director of the Emergency
Council of the N. R. A.
The strike is entering its twen-

Ing to the union, refused to do
anything because the union did not
come to him before calling the
strike. The text of the telegram
follows:
Ben Golden, in interview with
strikers, said employer need not
deal with strikers elected represen-
tasives. This means that workers
lose rights when they are on strike.
We protest this attitude. Demand
immediate official denial of Golden's
attitude"

Board Makes Deceptive Gestures
The decision of the Regional La
Dor Board was that the two men
be reinstated on the ground that
they were Disseminated against as
union men.
Anti-labor in character, the Re-
gional Labor Board continually
makes such decisions in the hope
of nursing along the quickly fading
illusions that the N. R. A. and its
Section Ia would guarantee the
right of the workers to organize and
belong to a union of their own
choice, Matles stated.
In the conference with the union,
in June, the company signed an
agreement that the two workers,
who, according to the company
were fired because of lack of work,
would be put along with other
workers on preferential list. When,
however, their turn to be re-em-
ployed came, the company failed to
live up to its promise.
The company hired two workers
in the milling machine department
and then transferred them to the
grinding department, where the
two union workers were fired from.
This the company called a suffi-
sient excuse for not living up to the
agreement signed.
1t is no secret, however, that the
transferred workers had to be
broken in to do the work because
they were not grinders and were
getting Is cents an hour less than
the grinders were.
Shop Paper Well Received
On Friday morning, the second
issue of the union bulletin, the
'Mergenthaler Mirror" came out,
exposing the company's attempt to
cover up the discrimination, and
demanding that the company carry
out the decision of the N. r. A..
Board. The bulletin was well-re-
ceived, the union announced, and
the workers are taking steps to
strengthen their organization in or
der to enforce Che boards decision.

press to handle the news of the

Armistice Day
Youth March
On Saturday
All Organizations Urged
To Mobilize for
Mass Parade

The Young Circle League of
America has joined the United
Front Demonstration Against War
called by the Youth Section of the
American League Against War and
Fascism, to take place Saturday af-
ternoon at 2 pm, starting at Col
umbus Circle and proceeding from
there to the Soldiers and Sailors
Monument on Riverside Drive and
Goth Street.
The anti-War movement among
young workers and students is grow
Ing" declared the Youth City Com
mittee. I'm colleges, offices, shops
and high schools, the recognition
OF the lucrativeness of war by the
few at the expense of the many,
as brought out by the Nye inquiry,
indicates the unwillingneSs of youth
to serve as accomplices in another
organized murder
With the Ives Bill abrogating
teachers civil rights, the opportun-
ity for the student to secure a true
picture of the horrors of war is
made extremely difficult. The anti
R.O.TC. demonstration at City Col
lege revealed to the student exactly
where the sympathies at City Col
lege lie. And only recently, at P.S.
lis, the principal of the school,
Charles F. Thelluson, admitted that
he authorized the distribution of
leaflets urging all upper grade stu
dents to join the Junior Naval Re-
serves.
1.-THE American League points out
that these are but a few of the
many instances of active propa-
ganda now going on in preparation
for another world war. There is an
immediate necessity to expose these
vicious plans, to broadcast the mes
sage that the youth of today will
not act as cannon fodder in war
for greed and imperialistic conquest.
THE Youth Section appeals to all
Negro and white workers, students
and professionals to support this
demonstration with their presence
in the line of march. All organiza-
tons are urged to mobilize their
members for this mighty protest.
Make this day ring with the mes
sage of solidarity of all anti-war
forces! Forge this demonstration
into a strongly-welded front against

Tredwell Smith, chairman Of the
City Central Committee, at meet
ing Monday night, emphasized the
immediate necessity to reach the
masses of this city with the mes
sage that war may strike today or
tomorrow. Stressing the program
of the American League, he urged
for an intensification of the drive
against war. Norman Tallentire,
former secretary of the City Com
mittee, said yesterday:
1--WE cannot wait until war is de-
clared to voice our protest; the time
to mobilize Is now. 1t is vital to
penetrate every organization with
the program of the League, which
is the only program embracing the
militant activity directed against
those who would lead us into a
catastrophe such as the last world
war"
Among the prominent speakers
scheduled to address this important
meeting, where the true significance
OF the Nye munitions investigation
will be revealed, are: Louis Peri

Committee Urges Fight
On Company's Anti
Union Practices

Demanding the reinstatement of
II workers fired for union activities

call was issued yesterday by the
committee Of the fired workers to
all workers organizations and clubs
to send delegates to a conference to

headquarters of the Tobacco Work
ers Union, 1864 Madison Ave, near
l11th st.
The workers, who were fired three
months ago, are members of the
Inside Bakery Workers Federal La
Dor Union 1913, A. F. Of L. The
officials of the union, they said,
have permitted the N. R. A. to give
them the run-around for the last
ten weeks"
The bosses claim that the men
were fired because business is
SLOW" but it is fact that the
men have been replaced and that
hiring of new men is going on every
day, while firing takes place. The
bosses are using these tactics, the
committee stated, to terrorize the
workers and keep them from join
ing the union and to try and scare
those in the union to drop out.
The committee Of the fired work.
erS appealed to all working class
organizations, clubs and unions to
come to their support and start a
boycott of the products of the Sun
shine Company by telling the store
keepers not to sell any more Sun
shine stuff until these II men have
been reinstated.
Most of these II fired workers are
Spanish speaking workers, the call
stated, and the bosses have spread
the rumor around that they will
not hire any more Spanish workers
as they are trouble makers" What
the bosses mean is that these Span
ish workers do the dirtiest work and
the hardest with the lowest pay
and are now beginning to protest
and organize for better conditions
and more pay.

lem were especially invited to send

Tuesday, the company was repre-
