strikers that they must intensity
picketing and stop all scab cabs.
Following the meeting the men
marched in an orderly and business
like manner to the garages where
they picketed two abreast.
A hearty ovation greeted Joseph
Gilbert, organizer of the union when
he appeared to speak at the strike
meeting yesterday.
THE fleet owners are trying to
scare the drivers by saying that the
Communists are supporting the
strike" said Gilbert. Certainly the
Communists are supporting us. We
don't deny it, We have Commu-
nists, Socialists, Democrats and Re-
publicans in our ranks. If support
comes from the Communist Party
we will accept it. II it comes from
the Socialist Party or any other
Party we will accept it. We cannot
be divided by political differences
Our aim is to win the strike"

]. Brooks, a Negro driver from
Harlem. drew down heavy applause
when he said I'VE must all stick
together with our union to win this
strike"
Another attempt on the part OF
the feet owners to herd the men
back to work without the union va
revealed by several hackmen who
stated that the owners of the
Brooklyn fleets had sent them tele-
grams stating that the strike was
over and to return to work.
The Elnore Taxi Corporation, AZ
Taylor ST., Brooklyn, sent postcards
yesterday to all their drivers, stat
ing they should return to work. This
strikebreaking move of the Elmore
fleet owners was exposed yesterday
at strike meetings at Germanis
Hall. Special squad pickets were
despatched to the Elmore garages
to halt any attempts of the COM
pany to roll their cabs.
During the last 10 hours police
violence against the strikers ha:
been intensified. Union leaders re-
port that % strikers were arrested
yesterday while on picket duty.
LaGuardia Administration Aids
Cops
The LaGuardia city government
continued its police mobilization
against the strikers. Police Com
missioner Harold l.. Allen said that
"the revoking of licenses is only q
drop in the bucket to what will
happen when 157 cases will be
heard" The capitalist press, as
sisting the fleet owners, spoke of 9
general stiffening on the part Of
the city administration and the
police" The World Telegram wa
especially vicious in its reference tx
''mobs loose on the streets"
Despite all provocations of thu
fleet owners and the capitals
press, the strike today remains firm
and the strike meetings orderly
Picketing continues in all garage,
in an organized manner.

Gus C.W.A. wage cuts. Your sup
port Of the Wagner Bill, and your
refusal to indorse the Workers I'm

that you do not have the interests

armed with night sticks, began

brutally dubbed and manhandled
the strikers. Mike Davidow, presi-
dent Of the Relief Workers League,

heavily, one blow striking him across
the throat. After the strikers got
on street cars, the police went on

Rotarians Hear Fine Message
BY FIR. II. B. Preston

The Rotarians. met last Friday
evening at the Malta hotel, where
dinner was served at 6:15, which
was followed with splendid
Christmas address by Rev. FIR. L. B.
Preston, who took as his subject
Flowers Culled from the Crib of
Bethlehem He said in part that
life is the greatest gift God gave to
man, and the very instinct which
impels a man to reach out his hand
in the dark. shows that he is will
ing to sacrifice part of his body,
rather than endanger his life. In
view of this fact the life of human
society is a sordfd record of war.
sin, devastation, crime, tears and
bloodshed.
When we look at the order of the
irrational, and the inanimate world,
and see that the sun rises and sets
daily without fail; the stars circle
in their fixed orbits harmoniously;
the seasons follow one another in
orderly succession; fields produce
their crops regularly; rivers run
their courses, with only an occasion
al food, and when we view the
peace, order and harmony in all of
these creations Of God, and behold
the war and manifold hatred and
uncleanness which has defaced man
kind who has intellect, an under
standing and free will, which
these irrational and inanimate crea
lures have not, are we not dimly
conscious of lost Eden? Can we
not realize that we must have fallen
from some sweeter existence?
Hence we see something else was
needed outside of mere reason to
lift man back onto plane of right
eousness, and that something is
supernatural power, called religion,
and that is what the Christ child
came to give
The two classes of people who
heard the cry of the Christ child,
were the shepherds and the wise
men, and they stopped and entered
the cave. The shepherds found
their shepherd and the wise men
found wisdom, and the Shepherd
and Wisdom were the babe in
crib.
Thus it has been ever since
through the ages,-the very simple,
hardworking people and the very
learned have heard the cry Of Christ
and have found him; hence you
will find in the Christian church the
rich and the poor, the learned and
the ignorant, just as at the crib Of
Bethlehem were found the unlearn-
ed shepherds and the wise men No
