While waiting, Uncle Wiggily

he sat down on the stairs in the

ROOSEVELT THE WINNER
Mr.. Roosevelt made good.

Mr.. Roosevelt made good.
The nation must give credit to the
President for being a real leader as amp
ly demonstrated by his prevention of
strike in the automobile industry.
There is no doubt that it was his per-
sonality and his determination that the
country's return to normalcy should not
be Jeopardized by such serious thing
as strike at this time, are alone respon-
sible for the solution of a very danger
Gus situation.
One can give credit 10 the union lead
ers and 10 the representatives of the mo-
tor car industry for willingness to give
and take, but 1t was willingness that
was forced upon them by the President
and the force of public opinion behind
him.
According to dispatches from Wash
ington. settlement of the dispute between
the unions and the auto industry is a vic
tory for neither side. The unions won
their point for the right of collective bar
gaining. The motor industry succeeded
in its determination to keep the American
Federation of Labor out of its shops. 1t
appears to be tie game.
1t there was winner it is Mr.. Roose-
welt. His recovery program is safe, he
has demonstrated able leadership and
firmness that is highly essential to any
one who aspires to leadership.
strike in the motor industry, it has
been stated before, would be disastrous.
1t would be bound to spread to allied in
dustries and none can say where it could
be halted. Happily it is averted and the
nation can go ahead.
There remains the railroad controver-
L. H.,
ling of the motor crisis justifies belief
that this too will be decided without
strike Mr.. Roosevelt has been in close
touch with the situation, although he has
left most of the discussion with the con-
tending parties to the railroad coordisa-
tor. When the time comes the nation can
expect the President to step in and when
he does threats of a strike will not be
heard much longer.
Maybe the nation can use that new
giant telescope to see way out Of its
difficulties.
Having saved the nation from a serious
strike, most of his fellow-citizens will
agree that Mr. Roosevelt is entitled to a
fishing trip.
Having colored their fingernais for
years, the ladies are now going to become
bald-headed so they can wear wigs of var
ious hues to match their gowns. That is,

Comrades:
New York City.


Comrades:
On April IA, the day after the
nation wide successful student strike
against war, showing the senti-
ment and strength of our students,
the honorable Senator Robinson of
Indiana delivered an eloquent
speech over the radio on the neces-
sity of maintaining the r. o. T. c.,
strengthening our army and navy,
and spreading the jingoistic ap-
peal of patriotism to the students,
who he pointed out, were of the
very great Importance during the
World War.
He spoke of the N. S. L. that
sponsored the strike and the Com
munist Party's principle against all
imperialist war and the r. o. T. c.,
because, as he explained, the laws
laid down and imported from for
eign quarters stated clearly that
the only way to have a successful
civil war is to fight against COM
pulsory military training. He spoke
against the Party, the N. S. L., and
the religious organizations that
sympathize.
He suggested the getting up and
distribution of a pamphlet on the
Importance and need for the R. o.

Workers Called To
Fight for Homes
in Princeton, Ind
by a worker Correspondent

PRINCETON, Ind. 49, The CWA
workers here are being demobilized
and are living in a closer relation
to starvation than at any time dur
ing the crisis. Only those that have
a political pull with the local group
who now exercise their political
powers, have Jobs that may last a
few weeks longer.
Last week one of the former CWA
workers was served with an eviction
order by the local Justice of the
peace" During the farce trial, the
worker was not given a semblance Of
justice, but did not take it lying
down.
The worker demanded a jury trial.
He then questioned the proposed
jurors; asked this question, DO you
know crisis is on?" The next uues-
ton was, do you know Mr.. Roose-
welt said that no one in America
shall go hungry, naked or without
shelter and fuel?" The second CUES
ton was promptly ruled out of or
der by this stool pigeon of the boss
es this Injustice of the Peace!"
One of the jurors had the cour-
age to hold out for about an hour
for the defendant. He weakened and
a verdict was rendered, whereby the

If the judge has the will to try it.
The workers here say, no one here
lies in the streets as long as there
are empty houses, and we shall do
as we have always done, set the
worker back in his home.
Another militant worker is to
come to trial on eviction charges in
a few days. He too, is his own at
torney, and we expect to fill the
court, as we did before in the case
mentioned.

ALL Works Hard
To Stop Strike
At SeryeI Shop
By a Metal worker Correspondent

By Metal Worker Correspondent
EVANSVILLE, Ind thought 1
would write and tell you and the
rest of the workers just how the
A. F. L. has betrayed the workers
Of Servel, Inc. Servel manufac-
lures the Electrolux Gas Re-
frigerator, Servel Hermetic Re-
frigerator, Hercules Gas Engines
and Hercules Truck Bodies.
In July, 1888, the A. F. L. or
ganized the Servel workers into a
Federal Local No. 1884. The COM
pany has continually refused to
recognize the union. About two
weeks ago, an election was to be
held by the National Labor Board,
but it was postponed indefinitely
the day before it was to be held.
The demands of the rank and
file for some action forced the Of
flcerS to hold strike sanction cleo
ton last night and today. A rep
reSentative of the A. F. L. by the
name of Huffman made short talk
last night before we started voting.
He explained that the A. F. L. was
absolutely opposed to strikes. He
told of how he had tried to deal
with the Servel for the past nine
months, and that he had failed to
accomplish anything, but that he
still believed the trouble could be
settled peaceably.
Now they refuse to say how the
vote went, and claim that they will
take no action until they have con-
suited with some out-of-town labor
officials.
About two weeks ago T. N. Taylor,
president State Federation of the
A. F. L., made a radical speech
here to the workers of Evansville,
mostly Servel workers. Two off,
Gals of Servel, Assistant Fac
tory Manager and Superintend-
ent of the Body Division, were
present. He invited them up on
the rostrum with the rest of the
A. F. L. officials, then he proceeded
to lambast hell out of Servel. These
two officials seemed to enjoy his
witty wise-cracks.
Mr.. Taylor said he had been in
conference with Servel Officials that
afternoon. 1t looked like he had
invited them out for a demonstra-
ton of how he could fool and mis-
lead the workers. He did swell
job. He told the workers he was
going to stay in Evansville until
the workers received what the law
gave them the right to. I suppose
he decided that they were getting
all that was coming to them, as
I haven't heard or seen anything
of him since.
The rank and file workers of Ser
vel should take control of their
union and throw these labor takers
out. 1t was rumored in the plant
today that Servel was going to give
their employees 10 per cent in
crease in wages

Detroit Police Arm
Strikebreakers TO Fight
Picket Line
By an Auto Worker Correspondent

BY an Auto Worker Correspondent
DETROIT, Mich. - Anyone who
had an opportunity to watch the
progress of the strike of the mem
bers of the Mechanics Educational
Society of America, employed by the
Detroit, Michigan Stove Works, will
have to admit that section IA OF
the N.R.A. is just so much plain
bunk.
The Detroit police, under orders
from Frank Couzens, the son of the
millionaire Senator, are doing every
thing possible to coerce and intimi-
date the strikers.
Workers of the Detroit, Michigan
Stove Works are organized practi-
cally 100 per cent. Yet Mr.. Fry,
the big shot at the Stove Works,
brazenly boasts he will have nothing
to do with the MESA. and claims
he has already hired men to replace
the union men and women.
Scabs under the protection of the
Detroit police are openly conveyed
through the jefferson Avenue gate.
They are also brought into the plant
by the same strikebreaking Detroit
police. These scabs are placed into
covered trucks.
The writer personally saw the
rear end Of one of these trucks, and
found oil cao1Ae ov7,3aJ will, oI,,,,1I-e
of steel, hammers, heavy clubs, etc.
Some of them are known to have
guns in their possession.
Following its old tradition, the
A. F. of L. had ordered it's mem
bers, the molders employed at the
plant, to SCAB during this strike.
The famous Dawn Patrol is also
used to convey scabs into the plant.
This is Congressman Weidmann's
pet organization.
The Kelly Furniture Sales Co.,
1S743 Woodward Ave, which uses a
Ford Truck Engine No. 5248435,
Plate License 537-705, is also busy
hustling scabs in and out of the
works.
On the first day of the strike. two
big, husky policemen were proudly
exhibiting an array of tear gas
bombs stuck into heavy duck
back vest, just to scare the men
and women in the picket lines. They
stationed themselves right in front
of the entrance. When the strike
started, about $50 policemen we're
seen about the plant, swinging their
clubs. They forced one of the picket
lines into the street, from the side
walk. A patrol wagon had been set
near the entrance to further scare
the strikers.
So this is the NR.A. and this is
the new Square deaI' for the
workers.

PRAISES DAILY'S STAND
ON ADS

hSu Ddllh, M u.
Dear Comrade:
I am a steady reader of the Daily
Worker. Tt was very gratifying for
me to see that you printed letter
by a food worker, bus boy, who
worked at the Parkway Cafeteria
on Pitkin Ave, which told of the
kick-back graft which is going on
there, although this same Parkway
Cafeteria was an advertiser in the
Daily. Of course the Parkway Cafe
terra immediately withdrew it's ad,
and is also instrumental in influ-
encing other restaurants not to ad-
vertise in the D. w. They all be-
long to an association.
I would like to call the attention
of your readers to the fact that
they should patronize places that
are friendly to the workers cause.
Also that the Food Workers Union,
with the help and sympathy of the
Brownsville workers, ought to drive
out the A. F. of L. grafters who
work hand in hand with the restau-
rant bosses.
