FOOTNOTES
BY HARRY RAYMOND

Yention was the election of Mana
ger Perlmutter of Local 10 as a
ce-preSident of the I.LGW.U.
What really was the browning
achievement of the convention was
the removal of the convention from
one hotel to another because of the
Jim Growing of Negro delegates
This moving Of the convention was
the result of the years of work that
the Communist Party has been car
rying ON for the unity of Negro
and white workers, which was so
clearly expressed in the ScottsbOro
case, the Angelo Herndon case, etc
AT the local meeting a number
of significant occurrences took place;
first there was shown the closeneSs
between the LovestoniteS of Local
228 and the rest of the reactionary
officials. This was brought out by
Perlmutter's praise of Zimmerman
and Jay Lovestone.
Secondly there was the continu-
anc,e of Manager Perlmutter's
propaganda in favor of piece"
work. Here he tried to prove that
where there is piece work the work.
ers make more money than where
there is week kork He even went
so far as to say, Why should we
force the operators to work under
week work system when they pre-
fer piece work. This was said in
spite of the fact that the operators
and other crafts have continuously
fought for week work because they
realize that piece work brings
greater competition among workers
and hence greater exploitation.
Thirdly, there was a fight that
a cutter made to get the floor. 1t
was obvious to all of us that he was
the first to ask for the floor, but
the chairman refused to give him
the floor until later. This cutter
finally got the floor through his
militancy, although We have no
ticed the same cutter had been re-
fused the floor time and time again
at the local meetings. His splendid
fight gained for him the right to
speak. He spoke as a member of
the United Rank and File Cutters
League, and was interrupted time
and again by the administration.
The manager even threatened to
call him to the executive board for
calling General Johnson a strike
breaker when he spoke against the
support which the I.L.GW.U. has
been giving the N.R.A.
The cutters should attend every
meeting Of the local and fight for
rank and file control and take up
the fight for union conditions"

Nathan'S Famous
COney Strikers
RemainO utSOIid
Strike in 18th Week
As Police Terror
Fails

Undaunted by the brutal police
terror and mass arrests, the Strik-
ers at Nathans Famous, Inc, 18th
st. and Surf Ave. Coney Island,
stand as solid as the Rock of Gil
brsltar, determined to win. They
are struggling against the "a to SO
hour week and for the 54-hour week
and the recognition of the union of
their own choosing, the Cafeteria
Workers Union.
AS soon as the strike was called
and the entire crew of 43 workers
walked out-the misleaders of the
A. F. of L. Local 325 signed a con-
tract with Mr.. Nathan, and ever
since they have been supplying 100
per cent scabs An A. F. of L. sign
is conspicuously displayed on front
of Nathan's to the effect that the
place employs 100 per cent union
men" The effective picketing, how
ever, not only crippled the business
of Nathan, but it exposed the
treachery of the A. F. of l.. off,
cialdom.
Alarmed, Mr. Nathan rushed to
his proteges, the courts, for help,
with the result that on the ninth
day of the strike he succeeded in
obtaining an injunction against
picketing signed by the vicious
Brooklyn injunction Judge Faber.
This injunction prohibits the strik-
.ers not only to picket, but even to
assemble within ten blocks of Ma
thans place of business.
12th Week of Strike
The strike, now in its 18th week,
has resulted in over so arrests and
in the death of Sternberg, striker,
who was abused and threatened by
the Nathan's murderous gangsters
until these threats and abuses be-
came a mental torture against
which the striker, unable to stand
any longer, became delirious and
finally died.
Without a search warrant for his
arrest, Patsy Augustine, the strike
chairman, was pulled off his bed in
his home and was dragged to the
9th st. Court. There he was burnt
on the face and feet, and was bru-
tally beaten with a hose until he
fell unconscious with a cracked
skull and swollen blue body.
On Saturday, July 4, at 6 pm,
the food workers will answer the
bosses terror with a mighty protest
demonstration in front Of Nathan'S.
The demonstration will be led by
the Cafeteria Workers Union in
conjunction with the Brooklyn Sec
ton of the New York Trade Union
Anti Injunction Committee and the
Young Communist League.
Food Workers! Trade Union
lists! Workers everywhere! Ma
than,s Injunction is not only
slap in the face, but a stab in
the back of the entire working
class! Join the Food Workers
Demonstration July 4 and answer
the bosses brutal terror with your
mighty mass strength!

Casey, backing his boss statement,
when committee of workers APP
peared before him.
When the workers brought up the
question of the violation of the N.
R. A. codes, Casey exclaimed
Can you find anyone who can
tell me what all these codes and
sections mean? We will not allow
these things in Jersey City"
Thus began the terror of arrests
The Furniture Workers Industrial
Union sent two workers to the
Miller shop on May 10 to collect
SIS owed to them. They were ar
rested, found guilty of sdisorderly
conduct and fined $25.
On June 6 the union began to

were Immediately arrested, on
charges of "willfully and unlaw-
fully assembling at Jersey City to
commit an unlawful act, to wit, to
incite a riot"
Since then about eleven persons
have been arrested for the same
crime" of picketing, including Cor
lisS Lamont. son of Thomas p. La
mont, banker, and Allied Bing-
ham, editor of Common Sense"
and Alfred Hirsch, secretary of the
National Committee for the Defense
Of Political Prisoners.
What rank frame-ups these trials

Called Outlaw
The furniture workers union is
called an outlaw" union. sOut-

was made by Hansen while Me-
Govern nodded approval.
There is no strike. Those who
are IN the shop are not striking.
Those who are striking are not

have no right to strike. Therefore
the strike Is Illegal and so is the

run an open shop and break the
union.
The same month Miller filed cor
poration papers in New Jersey and
applied for membership in the Ma
tional Association of Furniture
Manufacturers.
Moved Plant
In March, 1884, Miller moved his
plant from Brooklyn to Jersey City
AT the time of moving he locked out
all the workers of the Union and
in his new shop re-employed only
certain of the former workers who
were individually solicited by him
to work. These workers were spe-
officially warned that they must not
belong to the union, that the fac
tory must be an open shop and that
in the future Miller would dictate
the terms of employment.
'1f / catch anybody belonging
TO the union III fire him right
out" Miller had declared.
Wages were cut far below the
union scale, even below the N. R. A.
scale. One worker, Sam Stockton.
who had been making y$35 for a
40-honr week, was cut to piece
work on a 444-hour week. earning
about $21 average. Stockton was so
thoroughly disguised that he oe-
eided to rejoin the union and join
the strike for better conditions.
A similar stunt was played by the
Brooklyn Lounge Company. when
on March Is, Mr.. Felix, the boss,
called in representatives of the
Union and ordered a 80 per cent
wage cut and the workers to be
put on a piecework basis. When
the union refused to accept this
outrageous condition, Felix moved
to Jersey City.
The Union complained TO the N.

York, which said all men were to

The union printers, under the
leadership of the Amalgamation
Party, rank and file opposition
within the union, will insist upon
their original demands, and unite
in defiance to the attempted dicta-
tOrship of the bureaucrat Howard.
This Howard deal is not settle
ment but a basis of settlement"
meaning that it will be used as a
maximum demand to be scaled
downward in compromise or forced
arbitration. By giving employed
workers in the newspaper plants a
slight increase, it attempts to dump
the unemployed and partially en-
ployed workers. BY giving up con-
troll OF the fifth and sixth day,
Howard is giving the employers
permission to throw out of their
plants all but the minimum num-
Der of workers required to get out
the papers. 1t is estimated that
some 1900 newspaper workers, now
getting from one to three days
work, will be absolutely dumped
Three hundred will be put out in
the Hearst plants alone, $50 in the
World Telegram.
THE proposed settlement would
i not alleviate unemployment. 1t
would not do away with the notori-
GUS 'Stagger system" OF starting
work at odd hours, imposed in a
treacherous arbitration deal. It
would attempt to divide the union,
setting the employed against the
unemployed; the bosses would take
advantage of distress to break up
the union.
Like all workers, printers are SUI
fering through the fault of the
capitalist system, and that system
must be forced to take care of
them through reduction in hours
and increase in pay. Hearst and
other publishers hypocritically talk
about the 30-hour week, employing
more men, etc, while they fight Vi
.ciously against it in their own
plants. At the same time the big

the steamship line In an effort to
head off the strike. But the men
were not to be stopped once they
were under way. The important
demands for an eight hour day and
increased wages were fought Bit
terly by the line, who had to re-
sort to Shanghaing their own scabs,
so that they could man their ships
and go to sea.
Learned of Class Struggle
The militant union of the sea-
men and the longshoremen, the
Marine Workers Industrial Union,
participated in this strike, and gave
to it the proper orientation. The
radio men were quick to learn, and
at once realized that the issue went
deeper, that it was the class
struggle. Side by side with the men
of the M. w. I. u the radio men
fought against their common enemy.
Since that time the radio OPP
orators have won demands from o
variety of employer. Vacations
and wage increases have been
forcei. The eight hour day and
employment of minimum of three
operators on passenger ships has
Sasn won.
