A CRY FROM THE
CANADIAN HILLS

Laddie, little laddie. come with me
over the hills,
Where blossom the white May lilies
and the dOgwood and daffOdils,
For the spirit of spring is calling to
our spirits that love to roam,
Over the hills of home, laddie. over
the hills of home.
I.addie, little laddie. here's hazel and
meadow rue,
And wreaths Of the rare arbutus
ablOOming for me and you,
And cherry and bilberry blossoms.
and hawthorn as white as foam,
Well carry them all to mother lad
die, over the hills at home.
Laddie. little laddie. the winds have
many u song,
And bliihely and bold they whistle
to us as we trip along,
But your own little song is sweeter,
your own wit hits merry thrills.
So whistle tune as you go laddie,
over the windy hills.
l.addie. little laddte, It's time that
the cows were home,
Can you hear the klingle-klangle of
their bells in the greenwood
gloam?
Cid Rover is waiting, eager TO fol-
low the trail with you,
Whistle Il tune as you go, laddie,
whistle tune as you go.
I.addie. little laddie. there's a flash
of bluebird's wing.
Oh. hushi If we wait and listen we
may hear him carOling.
The vesper song of the thrushes and
the plant of the whippOOrwills,
Sweet, how sweet is the music, lad
die, over the twilit hills.
Brother, laddie, brother, your child
hood is passing by,
And the dawn of a noble purpose |
see in your thoughtful eye.
You have many a mile to travel and
many a task to do,
a tune as you go, laddie,
whistle a tune as you go.
Laddie, soldier laddie, a call comes
over the sea,
A call to the best and the bravest in
the land of Liberty,
To shatter the despOt's power, to
lift the weak that fall
a tune as you go. laddie. to
answer your country's call.

There is almost a 100 per
cent turnout in this strike.
The wage demand is 40 cents
per hamper while they have
been receiving from II to as cents
per hamper. A good picker can pick
from to hampers a day which
averages less than 81 per day.
The strike is under the leadership
Of the Cannery Agricultural Work
ers Industrial Union. The workers
have carefully prepared for this
strike. They elected a large strike
committee. There has been no police
terror up to the present time due
mostly to the preparations for
strong defense squads and picket
lines.
Because of the short time which
the pea season lasts, two more
weeks, the ranch owners are trying
to get the workers to 60 back with
offers up to 35 cents per hamper.
Up to the present time the ranch
owners have made no attempt TO

After I was released from Jail in

States for three months arousing
mass protest against the persecution
of the Atlanta Six" There was
tremendous response from the

the motion and defeated it by three
votes.
In spite of the fact that the So
cialist Party has repeatedly re
jected all appeals for unity around
the burning demands of the masses,
the Communist Party once again
appealed to the State Convention
for United Action. The call for
unity. also contained the following
warning, due to previous expert
ences:
I'm spite of the fact that the
Socialist Party leadership sys-
tematically refused to join us in
united front for the burning de-
mands of the working class, we
address ourselves again to your
Convention. Today united action
on the part of the working class
is needed more than ever before.
The workers Of this state will
judge you not according to words,
but deeds, and we declare here
that continued refusal on your
part to enter into united front on
this basis will be made known to
the broadest possible masses of
workers. We will be forced to
point out that your refusal to
unite on program of immediate
demands in common struggle
amounts to splitting the ranks of
the working class, thereby weak
ening the fighting front"
The action of the State Conven-
ton clearly indicates once again to
the working class of Illinois that the
Socialist Party leadership are split
tiers of the ranks of the working
class. Their program and policy
stand in the way of struggle for
better conditions, against the at
taclls of the boss class, against the
N. R. A.-which leads to war and
fascism.
The speeches and procedure of
the convention was to skillfully
avoid the mention of action. The
convention was dead. It was de-
void of any sign of militancy or
connection with the class struggle,

ALL. Leaders Put
Grim in Strike
Fur Dressers Strike Is
Broken in Five DAYS

NEW YORK.-A strike of fur
dressers that was called April Is
was practically broken on the day
it started, On this day all shops
were supposed to stop, but the
leadership of the International
Fur Workers "a. F. of u refused
to stop the following shops. Singer,
Hollander and Bergenpoint,
At a meeting of the joint com
mittee, held on April Is, at Gov
ernor Clinton Hotel, the committee
for the Industrial Union made the
following proposals: l To declare a
United Front General Strike against
the wage cut and to maintain all
union conditions. 2. Bosses to pay
a security at the time Of settlement.
3, 35-hour week.
In order to guarantee that condi-
tons will be lived up to in every
shop in the industry, the Industrial
Union proposed that joint commit
tee of both unions be elected to
visit each and every shop; hold
shop meetings; take up the griev-
ances of the workers; that a joint
unemployment fund committee be
elected and that this fund be con-
trolled by the workers.
Refused to Accept Proposals
The officials of the International
Fur Workers Union refused to &C
cept these proposals. Instead of a
United Front General Strike, they
just wanted fake stoppage for a
few days. Instead of continuing
the conferences as they promised,
they ran to the N. r. A. authorities
for assistance and completely dis
regarded the committee of the In
dustrial Union.
They promised to picket the
shops, but the only ones who pick
eted the shops we're the members
of the Industrial Union.
After days strike, they decided
to go back to work under conditions
stipulated by the bosses.
