Bronx Rally

NEW YORK.-In answer to
call of the Transport Workers
Union, 1900 employees of the I. r.

son AYES, the Bronx. Friday eve
ming at 8 O'Clock. When Austin
Hogan, the chairman, opened the
meeting hundreds of men had al
ready gathered around the stand in
spite of the known company spies
who were circulating in the crowd.
The gathering swelled in numbers
as the first speaker, Paul Green,
an organizer Of the Transport
Workers Union, denounced the I.
r. T. company's pension wage-cut.
The nilitancy of the men and

In his characteristic manner, he
clearly exposed the yellow dog, -

the company, desperate at the de-

the men, is attempting to use the
pension to prevent the workers from
building their rank and file union.
Company Thugs Attack
AS the attention of the men was
riveted on Walsh, a green limousine
dashed up Anderson Ave, from
which company thugs let loose q
hail of rotten eggs mixed with
Clipped glass.
Although the impulse of many
workers was to pursue the car and
settle accounts with the thugs, they
needed Walsh's appeal not to be
provoked, and the meeting pro-
ceeded in an orderly manner. The
crowd cheered as the stool-pigeons
scattered among the men we're
warned that any attempt at disrup-
ton would be thoroughly taken care

Novelty Makers Win
Wage Boost in Strike

NEW YORK, Despite refusal of
aid from American Federation of
Labor officials, so employees of the
World Button Works, 113 Fourth
Ave, have won wage increases
ranging from 5 to Is percent in a
successful eight-day strike. The
workers compelled recognition of a
shop committee, equal division of
work in slack periods and an end
to discrimination against workers
for union activity. The employers
also agreed to end their daily prac-
tice of searching workers.
At the beginning of the strike, the
workers called on both the Amer
lean Federation of Labor union in
the industry and on the Independ-
ent union in the field to help them.
Only the latter group responded,
helping to organize mass picket
lines and to raise relief. Similar
assistance was given by the Young
Communist League and the Work
ers' International Relief. At the
conclusion of the strike the workers
voted unanimously to affiliate with
the union which gave the strike
leadership, the Independent CellI-
loid and Plastic Novelty Workers

AGO, Aug. Violence
against Jews in Lake Geneva, Wis
consin resort town patronized by
Chicago vacationists, is urged by
the Regional News, a weekly news
paper published in the Lake Geneva
area, in its Aug. 2 issue.
The News, like all gutter sheets,
hypocritically refrains from men,
tioning Jews as the objects of it's
unrestrained campaign against So
called "undesirables." But in the
almost two full pages devoted to its
vicious anti-semitic rantings, it lets
the cat out of the bag by report
ing" the moving out of family by
the name of Steinbau1n from a
hotel without paying rent-so the
News says-as an example of the
"undesirables activities.

about the grave danger" facing
Lake Geneva, the News features as
its main story what purports to be

Rank and File Members
Force Vote Against
ReactiOnaries

KANSAS CITY, Mo.-Members
of the Socialist Party local here
voted for a united struggle with the
Communist Party against war and
fascisn at a recent meeting. The
vote was sixteen in favor and nine
against.
The issue of the united front was
brought to the forefront when the
reactionary element in the local, led
by M. Lippert, secretary, attempted
to piegeonhole a letter from the
American League Against War and
Fascisn. One of the rank and file
members demanded the floor and
declared that it was time the So
cialists everywhere were following
the example set by the Socialist
Party members in Camden, N. j.
and in France. He asked them how
much longer they would be cow
ards, and avoid the fight"
THE Socialist and Communist
workers" he said, have the same
enemy to fight"
He was Immediately supported by
another member.
Steps will be taken immediately
by the section organization of she
Communist Party to prepare Joint
anti-war actions.

the editorial says that Race pre-

American-this campaign is not in
tended as any sort of strictly racial
warfare. But when anyone of any

stroys what Is beautiful and handed

That the editorial is lying when
it says that its "just and wonderful

the fact that in the very next coll
umn, a whole batch of letters from
readers who heartily approve of the

the fact that it is aimed against

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-Leaders OF
the Farm Bureau Federation, rich
farmer controlled organize ion,
made a vicious attack o~ainst the
unemployed workers and urged the
further spread of forced labor IN

luton adopted here Friday.
In a rambling document which
talked about "doles encouraging
idleness," and communistic and So
cialist influences in the government,
the Bureau Board of Directors de-
manded that unemployed workers
be forced to take any kind OF job
no matter how low wages were to
be paid.
Relief policies of the present adj
ministration were criticized as a
system that lis fast becoming per-
manent and unless Immediately
curtailed will destroy American
ideals and self respect"
While these agents of the big land
owners and bankers we're calling
for further slashes in relief and
extension of forced labor, militant
farm organizations like the United
Farmers League continue to lead
