Mass Protest Forces
LaGunrdid to Cancel
Union ''License" Order

nouncing the police order as a fas-
cist edict.
"You will return copies of the let
tiers Of identification filed with you
and the incident will thereby be
entirely close" said the Mayor to
his Chief of Police when the pro-
tests continued to mount. 1t was
too much for the Mayor. He had
to call of the plan, although on
Monday supported 1t wholeheart-
edly.
In fact, Police Commissioner
Organ after he was ordered to
cancel the order exposed its source.
1t came from the Mayors Office,
Organ told reporters yesterday.
Organ pointed out that the Mayor
put his official OK. on the plan be-
fore it was announced. Thus both
the Mayor and Organ were guilty.
Meanwhile, Organs Rife Regi-
ment, picked storm troop detatch-
ment Of the police force for strike
duty, continues to drill in the ar
mories of the city. This latest fas-
ciSt brain child Of the LaGuardia-
Organ regime is under the fire Of
all honest trade union men and
women.
Organized labor, which has scored
a victory in forcing the abolition Of
the visa edict, is now moving for
ward toward great united fight for
the abolition of Organs Rif1es.

PHILADELPHIA, August 2.-Cul-
minating long campaign of terror,

Last night police roamed the

Gus rumor that Negroes had broke

Last night an especially vicious
attack on young Negro woman,
added to the long list of provoca-

Strike Move
Is Attacked

NEW YORK.-As $4,000 knitted
garment workers move toward strike
action, forces are being modified
from two points to smother the
movement. The first attack on the
strike movement comes from the
manufacturers; the second from the
leaders of the International Ladies'
Garment Workers Union, who
claim to be the sponsors and lead
ers of the movement.
The manufacturers are attacking
the strike through the Metropoh-
tan Knitted Textile Association by
threatening to close the New York
plants and move out of town, and
by establishing company unions in
plants remaining in the metropol-
itan area. David Dubinsky, union
leader, is aiding the manufacturers
by juggling the strike demands so
that the chief issues are either con-
cealed or confused and by attempt
ing to pin the hopes of the workers
on the strikebreaking Regional La
Dor Board.
The plan of the manufacturers
was brought to light at meeting
of the Metropolitan Knitted Textile
Association held Tuesday night at
the Hotel New Yorker, where Morris
j. Solomon, of the Davis Yarn Co.
of Brooklyn, and L. L. BalleiSen,
Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce
Industrial Division Secretary, were
the principal speakers.
Mr.. Balleisen offered to aid the
employers to establish shop" (com-
pany) unions. In addition he prom
ised full police protection" He
offered his advice and leadership
in the work of building company
unions.
Morris Rubinger. president of the
Metropolitan, offered plan for
moving the factories out of town.
An emergency committee Of 20
manufacturers was set up. This
committee, according to the manu-
facturers' statement, will have the
power to give permission for plants
to open which have formed COM
pany unions.
Meanwhile leaders Of the I. L. G.
w. U. are playing around with the
strike demands. This charge was
brought by the Knitgoods Workers
Industrial Union.
Zone day the IL.G.WU. leaders
say they are fighting for the 35,-

Condemn Moves
of Zausner

NEW YORK - The classic New
Deal method Of strike breaking is
being applied vigorously but with
little effect to the strike Of the
$4,000 New York painters.
Although boss painters, gangsters,
the N.R.A. and the illegal Zausner
leadership of the Painters Brother
hood have formed a broad united
front of reaction aainst the strike,
there is another united front-the
united front of the rank and file
painters-which is growing stronger
as the strike continues. 1t is this
united front that is breaking thru
the barriers of the New Dealers,
that is making it uneasy for the
zausner crowd and has thrown
the Master Painters Association
into cold sweat.
One can rest assured that in the
private chambers of Mr.. Philip
zausner, the gentleman who has
taken it upon himself to negotiate
settlements over the head of the
rank and file, there was consider
able wailing and gnashing of teeth
when he received the report yes
terday that members of the Brother
hood Of Painters had united with
members of the Alteration Painters
Union and were picketing the
Sheridan Square Hotel at 72nd st.
and Broadway.
Not Good for Bosses
Horrors of horrors This was sure
ly against the official policy of the
e-breaking leadership of Dis
trict Council 9! Such a united front
is not good for the bosses, nor is it
good for Mr.. zausner.
zausner, seeing the rank and file
taking control of the situation, is
anxiously looking forward to a date

Heimwehr 10y atty to
Nazi Chief Called
Doubtful

BERLIN, August 2.-Moving swiftly
to prevent the outbreak of new in
ner political struggles among Fas-
cist ruling cliques, Adolf Hitler to-
day made himself President of Ger
many by merging his office OF
Chancellor with the Office made
vacant when President Won Hin
denburg died this morning.
In an attempt to terrorize the
population into a ratification" Of
his new political moves, Hitler has
called for a national referendum"
which will be used to give some
semblance Of mass support for the
Fascist regime. The referendum
will take place some time between
August 10 and rs.
THE referendum" will take
place under conditions Of growing
terrorism, the method resembling
the wholesale terrorization which
marked the last elections" in the
Reich.
The death Of Hindenburg has
been seized as the occasion for a
renewed barrage OF Nazi propaganda
calling for national unity" that is
to say, for support Of the policies
Of the Fascists.
Disputes Over Army
The significance of Hitler's quick
move to foreStall any disputes over
the new alignment of Office on the
death of Hindenburg Is that with
his new Office Hitler now takes off,
cial command Of the armed forces,
including the Heimwehr, the highly
trained picked troops Of Germany.
An oath Of loyalty to Hitler was
Immediately administered to the
Heimwehr by General Won Blom-
berg.
But it is significant of the inner
disputes among the fascists that one
of the commanders of the Helm
wehr, Werner Won Fnitsch. has still
made no public declaration of sup
port.
An authoritative source in the
British Government declared that
there is considerable doubt whether
the Reishsweher will be as loyal to
Hitler as it was to Hindenburg."
George Lansbury, Parliamentary
leader for the Labor Party of
England joined in the universal
chorus of praise which the bour-
geoisie Of all countries is heaping
upon the KaiSer's leading Junker-
Militarist who ushered in the open
fascist dictatorship of the German
ruling class. He was a great SOL
dier," Landsbury said, after the
war he appeared to do the best for
his country"
Hindenburg was elected President
of Germany by the support of the
German Socialist Party whose lead
ers hailed him as the best bulwark
against Hitler" Soon after his
election he turned the reins of gov
eminent over to Hitler.
