ON DOCK WRIT

After days Of argument on the
application for an injunction which
would force longshoremen to handle
non-union trucked cargo, Chief
Justice Burt Humphry, who heard
the case in the Kings County
Supreme Court, declared that ne
will withhold the decision until
Tuesday morning, so that in the
meantime he may hear from the
shipowners.
Throughout the period during
which hearings were held, the ship
owners pretended to be neutral"
merely claiming that they were not
in a position to force the Interna-
tional Longshoremen's Association
members to load cargo brought in
from non-union houses and insisted
that they could not risk to provoke
a general strike while the West
coast situation still prevailed.
Commends Shipowners
In rebuttal, yesterday Senator
Burton K. Wheeler, brought in to
help in the defense of the unions,
concluded by reminding the judge
that what took place in San Fran
cisco, Portland and Los Angeles is
nothing compared to what would
happen in a great city like New

Fourth Over the Top

Rushing 500 to the Daily

went $50 over it's quota in the
100000 drive!
1t is the fourth district to
finish-the second district in the
week to nose out Denver, which
still stands at 95 per cent.
The Newark sections con-
tribution in New jerseys trium-
plant jump puts the section at
200 per cent of it's original quota.
Hudson County and Patterson,
however, are still tagging.
With several affairs still
scheduled, with collection lists

come in, New Jersey pledges to
reach $50 per cent of its present
quota in the next few days!

BEFORE S. P.

Clarence Hathaway, editor of the
Daily Worker, and James Ford,
well-known Negro Communist lead
er, will present in the name of the
Central Committee of the Com
mist Party, proposals for the forma-
ton of a united front against the
danger of war and fascism to

The session of the leadership of
the Socialist Party, including Nor
man Thomas, the best-known repre-
sentative of that organization, is
facing enc of the most significant
issues in the history of that body.
Unity of action with the Communist
Party will undoubtedly be the
central question at the meeting,
"Old Guard elements within the
Socialist Party, who are represented
on the executive by James O'Neal,
editor of the New Leader, New York
Socialist weekly, are prepared to
put up sharp battle against any
effort to accept the Communist
Party's repeated proposals for a
united front.
A caucus of the "Old Guard" ele-
ments to plan further struggles
against unity had been called in
Boston yesterday.
How Will the 'Letts" Act?
It is the action of the so-called
left elements and "militants"
within the Socialist NEG, most
of whom accept the leadership of

the greatest interest. In the past

The National Sponsoring Com
mittee of the Congress for Unem
ployment Insurance, which will be
held in Washington on Jan. ST.,
yesterday made public letter adj
dressed to the National Executive
Committee of the Socialist Party
proposing a united front for the
enactment Of genuine unemploy-

The lette- to the Socialist Party
Executive COMMITTEE. which is
meeting in Boston today for a two
day session, pointed out that the
National Congress for Unemploy-
ment Insurance represents an at
tempt to unity all forces behind
the fight for unemployment and
social insurance. 1t pointed out,
in renewing the appeal for a united
struggle on this immediate need of
the whole working population, that
many leaders and subdivisions Of
the Socialist Party had expressed
their approval of the Workers I'm
employment Insurance Bill. In
order, therefore, that the National
Congress may reflect the demands
of the widest possible numbers of
the working population, the letter
asked that the National Executive
Committee Of the Socialist Party
take action on the Congress call.

National Executive Committee,
Socialist Party of America,
Boston. Massachusetts,,
Dear Friends and Comrades:
I'VE believe that you will agree
with us on the Importance of vigor-
GUS and concerted action to compel
the forthcoming 74th Congress to
enact adequate social and unem-
ployment insurance legislation.
Recent declarations by the Pres
ident and other administration
spokesman clearly demonstrate that
despite the generous prediction
promises of the Democratic Party
and candidates, the administration
has no intention to enact such leg
islation unless forced to do so by
an aroused and united mass move
ment. On the contrary, the admin
istration is patiently launched upon
a program for further reducing the
living standards of both the en-
ployed and unemployed by means
of further wage and relief cuts, in
creased commodity prices and tax
alton measures that will impose new
burdens upon the great mass Of
the population.
I'VE refer specifically to the

ON Open SHOP

PATERSON, N. j., Nov. 30.-That
the dye bosses are aiming to re-
store the slavery conditions which
prevailed in the industry prior to
the 1888 strike, was the charge
made in a statement issued today
by George Baldanzi, president of
the Federation of Rayon and Silk
Dyers.
This statement was issued after
another conference with the en-
ployers broke off with no agree
ment. This time the union offered
to accept the modified preferential
shop, which only gives the union
workers preference in the hiring.
Baldanzi pointed out that the I'M
willingness of the dyers to consider
even this proposal shows that they
are set upon an open shop in the
industry. The union did everything
in its power to bring about set
Element, he said.
The meeting OF silk workers to
hear the report of the delegates to
the recent convention Of the Amer
lean Federation of Silk Workers,
will be at the unions headquarters,

HAVANA, Cuba, Nov. 3o.-Four
youths were critically wounded and
many others injured when police
opened fire without warning on a
crowd of 500 persons as they were
leaving mass meeting held for the
freedom of the Scottsboro Negro
boys. Two of the youths were re-
ported in a dying condition today.
EIGHT were arrested.
The protest meeting, called jointly
by the Committee for Negro Rights
and the Cuban section of the Inter
national Red Aid was a tremendous
success. Among other speakers, the
wcll-knoWn intellectual Juan Mari
nello and Antonio Maceo, nephew
of the famous Cuban Negro patriot,
addressed the assemblage in the
auditorium of the Negro Union of
Fraternal Societies. Resolutions
were unanimously adopted protesting
the m onstrous frame-up of the
Scottsboro boys and the fascist
lynch terror against the Negro peo-
pie of the United States and ordered
presented to the American Ambas-
sador here for transmission to
President Roosevelt.
AS the enthusiastic crowd left the
auditorium, police car ordered to
the scene by Colonel Pedraza, aide
of General Batista, sprayed the
peaceful crowd with machine gun
bullets. Police then charged into
the crowd, arresting 80 persons.
Workers and students prevented the
arrest of many others, including the
attorney Ofelia Dominguez.
1t is the opinion of many here
that the brutal attack on the
Scottsboro demonstrators was or
dered by the U. S. Ambassador here.
