leaders. The bosses want the men
to go back to work on the old
schedule until the new schedule has
been adopted throughout the coun-
try.
The strikers refuse to 60 back to
work until they are assured the
adoption of the new schedule at
once. So strong is the determine
ton of the workers to fight for an
immediate raise that the union
leaders have been forced to support
their demand.
There Is danger, however. that
the union leaders will betray the
workers in this struggle.
Although the union has officially
approved the wage settlement, so
many glove workers are seeing
through the betrayal that the union
leaders are using terroristic meth
DDS to crush opposition. Several

SHEBOYGAN, Wis.-Two thou

demanding collective bargaining,
that strikers laid off last Septem-

Various means have been used to
try to break up the strike. Twenty
pickets were arrested on the first
day of pieketing. The police and
American Legionnaire deputies, So

their power to crack the strike.
The bosses are using Max Ras-

vious time in the history Of the
labor movement of New York City
have been reached with propaganda
material for this May Day. Over
two million leaflets are being dis
tributed, issued by the United Front
May Day Conference, its affiliated
organizations and the Communist
Party. Two hundred thousand copies
of the special edition of the Daily
Worker are being distributed; meet
ings, sectional parades, ETC., were
held on a large scale. All reports
show that the workers have been
very receptive to the message of
the revolutionary workers and their
organizations from which the above
conclusion can be drawn, namely,
that this May Day will be the big
gest and most militant ever seen
in New York City.
The job now of every class con-
scious worker is to see to it that
this mass desire for struggle and
enthusiasm does not die with May
Day. May Day must be considered
as the day on which the workers
review their problems, plan their
future action and mobilize to fight
for their demands. Hundreds of
thousands of workers demonstrating
around the demands for this May
Day will undoubtedly exert pressure
upon the capitalists and their gov
eminent and wiring concessions from
them. But a maximum will only be

Especial to the Daily WORKER
TOLEDO, April 30.-Three mem
bers of the Unemployed Council
were arrested for assisting strikers
of the Bingham Stamping Co., here
last week. The boss courts fearing
the mass resentment of the strikers,
were afraid to charge them with
violation of the injunction and made
the charge Of disturbance" The
Unemployed Council assisted in the
picketing at the request of a group
of thirty-four strikers Of this plant,
including members of the shop
committee.
This request was made over the
heads of the A. F. Of L. who said
that they did not want Outside
help" and we're in favor of the in
junction preventing picketing by
the Unemployed Council.
The A. F. of L. leaders laid the
groundwork for selling out the
strikes of the three factories here
by taking rising vote Of all those
who were willing to trust the U. S.
Government, which means that the
strike will be submitted to the
strikebreaking Labor Board Ram
sey, A. F. of L. leader, stated that
they would never relinquish their
seniority rights which means that
all the other demands have already
been given up.

OrganizationaI Tasks
Therefore, it is now our task to
continue working with the new
contacts we have made, that we
keep in touch with every organi-
cation that we approached success
fully or otherwise in preparation
for May Day, that these new tens
Of thousands Of workers be brought
into the various organizations
those willing to fight against war
and fascism into the League Against
War and Fascism; the unemployed
into the Unemployment Councils;
the workers into the revolutionary
unions; the Negroes, and white
fighters for Negro rights, into the
League of Struggle for Negro
Rights; into the clubs, fraternal
organizations, the Women's Coun-
ellis, ETC., etc.
If we give proper attention to this
important phase Of our work then
we can rest assured that the big
mass movement brought into life
as result of our May Day activi-
ties will continue after May Day
and gain strength as we go along,
with the result that we can have
still bigger demonstrations against
war and fascism on August 1st, etc.
Spread the Daily Worker
Our best agitator and organizer is
the Daily Worker. Two hundred
thousand copies of the special May
Day edition are being distributed.
Tens Of thousands Of workers get
ting the Daily for the first time If
properly followed up can result in
doubling and trebling the circula-
ton of the Daily Worker in New
York City with the consequent re-
suit that through the use Of this
fighting organ we will be able to
get bigger distributions in the fu-
ture, as well as bigger notifications
Of the masses for struggle.
Therefore, real serious attention
must be given to follow up this
special distribution with the object
of getting additional thousands of
permanent readers for the Daily
Worker.
With all the above mentioned
increased tasks the revolutionary
Party of the working class, the Com
munist Party, has bigger and bigger
obligations and must therefore be
Tremendously strengthened. Every
Party member should have applica-
ton cards in his or her possession
and make use of them. Thousands

asked. Every Party member should
approach his fellow worker in the
May Day line of march or in Union
Square asking them to Join the
Party. If we do this, We should be
able to recruit at least a thousand
new members for our Party on May
Day.
Recruiting to Party and vel.
But this is not enough. We must
consciously go among these new
workers with whom We made con-
tact as a result of our May Day
work, and especially those in the
factories and shops, day in and day
out in connection with all of our
work, recruiting for the Party. If
we tackle The question of recruiting
only half-seriously, we can have ten
thousand Party members in our dis
trict within the next six months.
In our May Day preparations we
have no doubt come in contact with
tens of thousands of young workers,
young workers who have shown in
the past that they are militant fight
ers and ready to be organized. We
NUT use these contacts to build the
Young Communist League into a
mass organization 1t is the duty of
every Party member to recruit for
the Y.C.L. TO the same extent that
they recruit for the Party. Let us
make it our business to recruit a

The workers are ready for our
message and for struggle. All that
is necessary is to approach them,
give them our message, show them
the way that they can fight against
the continuous encroachment on
their living standards. From this
show them the final way out of
their misery-the revolutionary way
out of the crisis. Speak to the work
ers, sell them our press, sell them
our pamphlets, give them our leaf

sage and will follow our leadership
if this is done.
The tasks enumerated above can
be carried out by us, and when they
are carried out they will be long
strides toward winning the majority
of the working class for the final
struggle.

In an interview with Charles

learned that over $4,000 in bail Is
ready if necessary.
The case of Atillio Lepri, which
came up this morning, was con-
tinued for one week so that the
LID. can prepare its mass defense.
Lepri was arrested on framed UP
charges of intimidation and breach
Of the peace. The LID. calls for
mass protest in wires to Judge
O'Connell, Police Court, East Hart
ford, Conn.
Two other cases of pickets who
we're pulled off the picket line by
state police who were called in by
the Manufacturers Association, were
tried last week. The strikers were
threatened with 30 days in Jail with
fine. Cases we're appealed by the
local LID, obtaining nationally
known lawyer to take over the cases.
Arrow strikers went back last
week with no union recognition,
with agreement kept secret. The
leadership promised all strikers a
blanket increase of 10 per cent, but
the strikers found this was not true
when they returned.
A strike is on with over 100 nurs-
cry men in Burr Farm, Manchester,
Conn, for $3.50 cents a day increase
for women and 40 cents an hour
for men. The owner of the nursery

Declares Leader
Especial to the Daily Worker)

MOSCOW, April 80 (By Radio -
Klementi Voroshilov, speaking in
the name of the Revolutionary Mil
itary Council of the U. S. S. r.,
today issued the following proc
lamation to the Red Army, in con-
nection with the May Day celebra-
tons:
Comrades, Commanders of the
Red Army and Political Workers!
I congratulate you, as the inter
national proletariat congratulates
you, on our May First festival. The
solemn promise is here made of
the loyalty of the workers, young
and old fighters, to the Workers
and Peasants government.
Today is the day of review of the
revolutionary forces of the interna-
tional proletariat. 1t is a day of
review not only of the toilers of our
country but of their heroic struggles
and victories for Socialist construc-
ton. With the just pride and joy
of victors in this intense labor, mil
lions of workers and peasants in
the Soviet Union, millions of build
ers of classics, Socialist society,
are today rallying under red ban
ners, with unshakeable Bolshevik
will.
Stresses Gains
The working class of our country
has created powerful industry, has
laid firm basis for the further I'M
precedented rise in productive
forces. Millions of kolkhoz and
state farm toilers have gained one
victory after another in Socialist
agriculture, by dint of their per-
sistent, conscientious labor, and are
gradually bringing it to number
one rank in Socialist industry, and
the joy of all toilers in the Soviet
State.
z The creative, constructive work
of millions is in full swing every
where, over the vast territories of
our great country. The colossal
creative energy of the working class,
the working class which is master
of its Socialist fatherland and of
its own destiny, is embodied in the
unparalleled examples of heroism
on the ice fields of the Arctic, on
the unexplored expanses of the
stratosphere. 1t is embodied in the
ardent enthusiasm of Socialist con-
struction, in the greatest striving
of the whole nation, toward knowl-
edge and culture, in the brilliant
victories of Soviet science and tech
nique.
New Life"
1t is a bright, new, joyful life,
conquered with blood from the en-
envy, over the unfolding Soviet land.
The victorious march of Socialism
resounds powerfully over the whole
globe, inspiring the toilers of the
world. The cause of Socialism in
our country is invinciblel indie
structible is the great army of labor
united under the great banner of
Marx, Lenin and Stalin
The Workers and Peasants Red
Army, supremely devoted to the
cause of Socialism, possessing first
class fighting technique, vigilantly
guards the borders of the Soviet
State. The fighters of the Red Army
are surrounded by the care and love
OF the toilers of the Soviet Union.
Steadfastly is fighting readiness
raised in their ranks. Firmly do
they master powerful armament.
Persistently and stubbornly are they
working over their cultural and po-
litical development.
No Army Like Red Army
Today the Red Army demon
strates before the world. before the
