Especial to tn. Daily worker)

LOWELL, Mass, Sept 23.-The

Leon Mike McCue, strike presi-

came after nearly week of mass
protest against his gangster meth

ers we're accosted by McCue and
his thugs. The following day Joe
Costello, shoe union organizer from
Haverhill, was kidnapped by this
same gang and was taken to the
City Line and dumped.
On Friday night the workers
answered this terrorism in a mass
meeting of over 800 strikers, where
the victims of McCue's gangSterism
were greeted with enthusiasm and
where resolutions were adopted
protesting the use of the strong arm
forces, and expressing confidence in
the leadership of Sam Harzigian,
militant worker who has been con-
stantly threatened by the union
officials.
The main speaker of the evening
was Ann Burlak, N. T. w. organ
izer. She urged the continuance of
the struggle and called for solidar-
ity. Fred Biedenkapp also spoke,
exposing completely the role of the
misleaders locally and nationally.
Carl Reeve announced his return
to Lowell, "and I'll come here any
damn time 1 please" he said. He
spoke of the role that the Daily
Worker has played throughout the
strike and warned the workers that
without the Daily" and without
study of it from day to day, they
will be left without the true picture
of the strike and the actions of off,
Gals in Washington.
When McCue resigned on Satur-
day morning, he gave as his reasons
lack of physical strength and sick
nerves."
On Saturday evening 1000 strik-
ers fled through the rain to the
city auditorium to hear Malloy and
an explanation of the late head
lines, which announced that the
strike had been called off. The
meeting lasted about fifteen min
utes. The whole of the time was
devoted to listening to Germans

over the air clearly. Before any
opinions could be discussed the
meeting was Immediately dismissed

FRANCIS J. GoRMAN and the National Strike

Southern Strikers Are

Betrayal of Fight

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Sept. 23.-
Messrs. R. r. Lawrence, Howard
Payne and George Grooge, South
ern A. F. of L. leaders, after making
hasty endorsement of Francis J.
Germans complete betrayal of the
national textile strike, commenced
shouting with joy and in numerous
broadsides in the press declared the
decision of the National Strike
Committee that the workers should
return to the looms tomorrow "a
tremendous victory for the textile
workers."
Workers in Gastonia, Belmont,
Concord and other strike centers
that visited yesterday and today
were discussing the decision of their
officials to herd them back to the
mills without winning a single one
of the demands that they fought
for, and we're asking each other
wherein the much boosted vic
tory lies.
The rank and file union men and
women of the South are greatly dis
satised with the settlement" But
all those who openly raise their
voices against the betrayal are i'm
mediately pounced upon by the top
union officials, vigilantes, deputy
sheriffs or members of the military.
Today the Communist Party
issued leaflets along the strategic
sections of the strike front warning
the workers against the danger of
the betrayal of the German leader
ship and urging them to set up rank
and file committees to take over
the leadership of the struggle of
the textile workers
Paul Crouch, District Organizer
of the Communist Party, in a state
ment to the press today said that
the Communist Party urges the
workers to continue the strike over
the head of German and called for
a mass fight against the terror rag

East Hampton Strikers
Vote To Stay Out and
Fight for Demands
By Carl Reeve
DAILY Worker STAFF Correspondent

tDaily worker STAN Correspondent
BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 23.-"Mass
picket lines and strike until our
demands are Won" was the slogan
of rank and file workers and of
the Communist Party Of New Eng
land today as U.TW. leaders over
the radio and at mass meetings
tried to drive the strikers back to
work in defeat. Germans address
praising the Roosevelt-Winant ar
bitration decision, which does not
grant a single strike demand, was
broadcast in all sections.
Germans insistence that the
strikers go back without wage in
creases, with no shorter hours, and
no recognition, was supplemented
by speeches of district U.TW. lead
ers today, who urged the strikers
to re-enter the mills Monday
morning.
The sentiment Of the rank and
file, especially in such centers as
New Bedford and Lowell, is the
sell out is being put over; the U,
T. w. is running true to form; We
must stay out until we win"
In East Hampton, Mass. where
troops guard the Hampton Mill, the
strikers voted to stay out on strike
and rejected the proposed Settle
ment', of the U.T,W. leaders and
Roosevelt. The Communist Party
and the National Textile Workers
Union issued leaflets in all sections
urging mass picket lines on Mon
day, and continuation of the strike,
with control vested in elected rank
and file mill strike committees.
While U.T.W. leaders were speak
ing to all sections at mass meetings
in Lawrence, city officials denied
the N.T.W.U. a permit for a mass
meeting on the common, on the
ground that the N.TW.U. favors
strike.
In Lowell, Vice President Kelly
was to speak today to try to kill
the strong rank and file sentiment
there for continuation Of the strike.
In Fall River, Marine S. Bishops

strikers back to work.

the textile strike should
again focus the attention of
every class-conscious worker
on the need for a united
struggle of Socialists and
Communists against the pol
icies of the corrupt A. F. of
L. leadership and their I'M
derlings like German in the
A. F. of L.
In the recent exchange Of
communications between the
Socialist Party and the Com
munist Party on united ac-
ton, reference was made to
this vital question. The let
ter of the S. P. states that
No united action on spe-
cific issues is possible be-
tween Socialists and Com
munists except on a basis
which also gives hope of
ending fratricidal strife
within the trade union
movement"
To this the Communist
Party answered: If this
means an end to struggles be-
tween Socialist and Commu-
mist workers within the
unions and the formation of
a joint policy Of struggle
against the A. F. Of l.. hier-
archy-by all means, let us
do so. But, said the letter
Of the Communist Party,
there is another pos
sfble and opposite under
standing of the sentence
quoted from your letter.
The opposite Interpretation
Is that to end fratricidal
strife really means to end
the struggle conducted by
Communists and other
revolutionary workers, as
well as broad circles of non
Party workers, against the
policies of the Executive
Council of the A. r. of L.
and its constituent interna-
ti0nal unions"
TODAY, in view of the sell
4 out of the textile strike,
the Socialist Party leadership
should speak up. The S. P.
leadership cannot disavow re-
sponsibility for certain of its
members without clearly an
swering the question put
forth in the document of the
Central Committee of the
Communist Party.
The official organ of the S.
P. suprorted Francis J. Cor
man at every turn, hooking
at the warnings of the Com
munist Party and its official
organ, the Daily Worker
Leading members of the So
cialist Party took a prominent

The S. P. leadership must

known that they support
these individuals and the
