N. Y. Hatters' Strike Enters
Sixth Week; Needs Support

ecutive board refused to approve
of this, and the bosses Immediately
before the membership meeting,
without the knowledge of the ex-
ecutive board, called up the Off
Gals and promised an additional
five cents.
Even 20 cents, when proposed by
the officials at Thursdays member
ship meeting, in spite of the favor
able talks by our officials and some
of the executive members, upon the
suggestion of the rank and file was
rejected.
Also the trimmers of local seven,
whom the bosses would not offer
anything, were offered an increase
of five cents, which was also re-
jected by them.
The membership in both locals
decided to stay out for higher in
creases because they know that the
bosses are now pressed for time and
will have to resume working or else
go out of business.
The conference of all labor or
CARNATIONS and trade unions in the
city called by local eight in support
of our strike for July 5th has al
ready elected a committee to col
lect funds to relieve the striking
hatters. With some financial as
sistance coming out of this con-
ference, and its further activities,
we hope to bring the strike to a
successful end in the near future.

an educational course consisting of
Is to IS young workers, who will
learn the proper methods to get an
improvement of the conditions of
young workers in the shops. This
body of youths will be a nucleus to
help spread the propaganda to make
our union stronger in all it's
branches. The only way that the
union could aid the young workers
is through an organized manner.
AS we all know that the union is
publishing a monthly magazine en-
titled the "Shoe and Leather
Worker" wherein are discussed
various problems arising in the shoe
industry. It is proposed to have an
entire page devoted to problems
confronting the youth, in future
copies. Young workers are urged to
write articles for this publication.
We must not forget the eventful
day of August l, when our agree
ment with the bosses expire. 1t is
necessary to be prepared for any
tactics that the bosses might have;
and it is therefore our plan to make
specific demands now, in order that
we may retaliate for anything the
bosses may have in store for us.
1t is of utmost Importance to keep
the spirit of organization alive.
That is by means of sports activ-
tiles. We wish to know the sport
which seems to interest the youth
most. Let us get together and or
ganize groups in our shops In such
a sport as baseball. Help form a
baseball league. Games will be ar
ranged to play teams in our union
and other trade unions.

were ready to settle the strike. But
a little thing stopped them. This
was the fact that the seamen were
behind their elected committees and
not the I.S.U. officials. Old crack
pot Andy P. F'ureseth boiled with
rage when his ancient sell-out gag
of 1921 didn't work. The workers
have learned many lessons since the
1921 sell-out, and have welded them
selves together into a united front
that the takers were unable to
break.
Brother J. P. Ryan was driven
from the west coast when he tried
TO drive the longshoremen back to
work. Things got too hot for Ryan.
The Ryan and Fureseth under
lings on the east coast are carrying
on the sell-out traditions of the
LILA. and I.S.U. They are deliber-
ately Sabotaging the west coast
strike by refusing to call upon the
I.SU. members to take action and
refusing to support any actions
against scab ships.
The "seafarers council" composed
of I.S.U. officials, issued bulletin
a yard long, containing one line
about the west coast strike which
stated, The marine workers are
striking on the west coast, here's
hoping they win" The last line
sounds like a toast in barroom.
Yes, they hope they will win alright,
meaning the shipowners and the
right Of the I.S.U. to collect dues.
The I.S.U. by carrying on a scab
policy here have even made some
of their own delegates disguised and
ready to throw up the sponge. I.S.U.
delegates have been chased off ships
by the crews.
The LILA. officials have the
docks infested wit two-bit gansters
who keep the men at work by
threats and by spreading lies about
the west coast strike
Despite the terror, ISLANDERS and
intimidation of the labor takers and
police, the Marine Workers Indus
trial Union is on the job every day
organizing the seamen and long
shoremen, preparing tn e m for
struggle.
A general strike call has been is
sued by the M w. I. U. in answer
to the murder program of the ship
owners and government on the west
coast
The Marine Workers Industrial
Union has led several actions in
support of the West Coast, and the
sentiment of strike is expressed
aboard every ship. On the docks
the longshoremen grab eagerly
leaflets that are distributed daily.
The very air is charged with
strike sentiment on the waterfront,
but it will require more than just
the M. w. I. U. to start the ball
rolling. 1t will require support from
workers in all industries.
A general marine strike at present
in the port of New York will be the
lever that will set the entire east
coast ports into motion and will
have a tremendous effect upon
workers in all industries.

BY HARRY BROWN

For six weeks the matters have
been striking against the intolerable
conditions prevailing in their shops
and for higher wages. The rank
and file group has been instru-
mental in bringing about this strike
and is leading it to a large extent.
In spite of the promises of the
bosses to bring the average wages
up to So day, we were only re-
ceiving SIS or S.. To assure decent
living wage this year the bill of
price conference composed of rep
resentatives from all shops decided,
in addition to several minor items,
on a basic demand for rs cents in
crease, which the membership APP
proved unanimously.
Since the first day of the strike
the workers are coming down on
the picket line and in spite of the
injunction granted to the Omaha
we have succeeded to some extent
to cripple this shop.
It is significant also to note that
throughout the entire strike we
have received no assistance what
ever. Not having earned enough
before the strike, after three weeks,
we approached our national off,
Gals, Michael Greene and Martin
Lawlor, for strike benefits, in spite
of the maneuvers of the local Of
ficials, who told us that the ma
tional Office is in no position to
give strike benefits to the member
ship. But the workers, knowing
that for years they have been pay
ing two per cent in dues, refused
to listen and insisted on getting
strike relief. These national off,
Gals instead of giving us relief gave
us sob story of "a poor treasury"
and offered arbitration. The work
ers would not listen to Michael
Greene, knowing very well how he
sold out the strike of the Danbury
Hatters and insisted that either
Michael Greene help the strike
financially OF not at all.
Asks Labor Council
Not having succeeded in getting
financial assistance from the ma
tional Office, we approached the
Central Trades and Labor Council.
But all this august body could do
was to offer a motion endorsing
our strike. They even refused us
q credential to approach local
unions under the pretense that an
other is already In the field. In
cidentally, it is interesting to know
that Jimmy Quinn, the secretary of
the Central Trades and Labor
Council, is halter and represents
our local in that body.
In spite of the unsuccessful at
temps to get any relief for six
weeks, the spirit amongst the strik-
ers is excellent. Knowing the
sentiment amongst the strikers, the
bosses were forced to call us to
conference.
At the first conference, the bosses
refused to consider our Bill but in
stead promised arbitration and
vaguely spoke about improving
working conditions. The answer of
the workers to this insult of the
bosses was: Nothing else than a
substantial offer on our Bill will
meet with our approval" The ex-
