thing necessary is to tax the mem
bership to raise a sum of SIS 900 and
more and limit the fight to the
courts and to boss justice only. We
are by no means of the opinion
that it is not necessary to appeal
through the courts. But we be
lieve that if the fight is isolated
only to the courts without drawing
in the membership of the local and
other workers for real fight on the
picket lines against the injunction,
then we will be in no position to
defeat this menace. We also be-
lieve that the injunction against
Local sos of the Bakers Interna-
tional is one which can be used
against any other union in the food
industry or any other industry.
The fight against this injunction
must become a fight of the labor
movement as whole. Around this
fight We must bring in the liberal
minded elements SO that the mem
bership of the local should not have
to be taxed, but, that money would
be provided by the labor movement
as whole in the fight against this
injunction as well as against the
general use of the injunction in
labor disputes.
The Food Workers Industrial
Union which is faced more than any
other union with the injunction
menace, is ready and willing to CO.
operate with all the workers re-
gardless of their union affiiation in
developing a fight against the use
of the injunction We are still OF
the opinion that the membership
of Local sos are in favor Of CO.
operating with the labor movement
as a whole to break the injunction
of Judge Faber.

tional who are interested in or

Rank and File Cutters Build
League to Fight for Class
Policy in Garment Union

Rank and file cutters have or
ganized themselves into a non-dues
paying organization within Local
10, of the International Ladies
Garment Workers Union. 1t is
called the United Rank and File
Cutters League. The workers have
been realizing that individually
they can do nothing against the
intolerable bureaucracy of the I. l..
G. w. U. officials, but that united
they can and will improve their
conditions, with honest workers as
leaders.
In the short weeks of its exist
ence the League has grown until
now it Is larger than any of the
other opposition" groups of Local
10. In the last general strike, cut
tiers won gains which they are now
in danger of losing altogether. The
three scale system of wages is be-
ing used by the bosses to cut wages.
Cutters are hired as StretcherS at
SGT a week and then are eased into
cutting, while in some places cut
tiers are hired as mechanics at the
same miserable wages. Bosses and
patternmakerS are doing cutting,
though many cutters are mem-
ployed.
At the May oath meeting, real
militant program was adopted by
the rank and file. The workers
had tried, before the I. L. G. w. U.
Convention, to bring up their reso-
lutions at a meeting, but it was
hastily adjourned.
The main points in the program
are: for class struggle Union. con-
trolled by the rank and file: for
Trade Union Democracy, against
intimidation, suspension and eKpul-
sion; for the 80 hour week without
reduction in pay; for Unemploy-
ment Insurance paid by the bosses
and government and for the sup
port of the Workers Unemployment
Insurance Bill H. r. 1898; for the
issuance of dues exempt stamps for
unemployed members; against ex-
cessiye taxes, high dues and initia-
ton fee.
Must Elect NIiiitants
The United Rank and File Cut
terS League has for its purpose the
winning of the majority of the cut
ters to support this program and
to build and strengthen the union,
by means of electing rank and file
militant workers as leaders, whose
interests are the same as those of
the other rank and file workers.
The League will fight against the
I. L. G. w. U. bureaucrats who
ignore the hundreds of complaints
which are registered in the Unions
office and get filed in the waste
baskets.

this reward was offered to the So
cialist leader for the assistance he
gave the LaGuardia administra-

Shortage of Funds May Necessitate CurtaiIment oi Activities State Meeting in Hartford Friday;
 Salary Cut Suggested to Prolong Work

A careful check on the employees of white collar projects, and the the possible dismissal of many given work is seen in the an- nouncement today of change of policy by state EZRA officials.
 Funds now available will keep white collar workers actively em- ployed through the month of Feb- ruary. according to Miss Eleanor Little, state administrator of the EZRA. Congressional action will be necessary for the continuance of the program after that time.
 Significant of an impending change is the announcement that 1t is the aim of the state office to put the neediest cases to work as soon as possible and take those less needy off the payroll. Present funds do not permit the employ ment of more than 2,200 persons in this branch of the EZRA throughout the entire state at a monthly expenditures of $2O0,Q00.
 Only two projects on a compara- lively large-scale plan are in pro. gress at the present time in WaterA bury. One is the Emergency Edu- cation program being conducted at Crosby High school, and the other the newiy-formed EZRA band. Less than 100 persons are employ ed in the combined projects.
