To Unite the Radio
Workers Unions
Conference Saturd q y
To Unite All Groups
To Fight Wage Cuts

NEW YORK.-A movement to
unite all existing unions and groups
in the radio industry was launched
Wednesday with the issuance of q
call to the workers to elect delegates
to Radio Unity Conference. The
conference is scheduled to be held
on Saturday, June 16, at 2 pm. at
Irving Plaza.
Sponsoring the conference are a
number of important organizations
already established in the industry,
such as the Instrument Workers
Union, the Independent Radio and
Metal Workers Union, and the
Mechanics Educational Society Of
America.
Unity Is imperative to safe
guard our interests" the confer
ence call says. II declares that
industry is paying miserablly low
wages, Jobs are insecure, speed-up
is inhunan and lay-offs are in
creasing, and that by united ac-
ton immediate improvements can
be won.
Delegates to the conference are
being elected on the basis Of five
from each union. three from each
organized shop and two from each
shop group. Individual workers are
also invited to attend where no Or
ganization or group exists In the
shops.

Vicious Leatlet Seeks to Hide Ruinous

THE desperate lengths of
L SANDER and ignorant abuse
to which an exposed trade
union bureaucrat can go are
we'll illustrated in the leaflet
now being distributed to the
painters in New York by the
zausner oficialdom of District
Council g.
The painters of this union are
fighting for decent conditions on
the job, for democracy within their
own union, for an end to gangster-
ism and fascist methods in their
meetings.
And the only answer that Phillip
Zausner, present secretary-treasurer
of District Council 9, can give the
painters is this leafiet, which is an
insult to the intelligence Of every
rank and file painter in the union.
This leaf1et, issued under the re-
dictionary name OF the Vigilante
Committee, is the first statement
of policy issued by zausner in the
present election campaign.
And it reveals him as an open
enemy of those very demands for
which the painters of the union
are lighting against the en-
ployers.
Truly, no agent of the Master
Painters Association could have
written leafet more in the inter
ests of the employers, more opposed
to the interests Of the painters than
the leaflet of zausner. Every syl-
liable of it bears the marks of re-
action and the employers.
Fights Union Demands
It makes a vicious attack against
the candidates Of Local Union 400
and against the local as a whole. It
calls the six-hour day and f1ve-day
week "unattainable demands on the
employers"
He calls strict trade union condi-
tiors a fictitious demand!

union, rank and file leadership and
the demand for unemployment in

workers in Haverhill by the General
Executive Board and the reformist
elements in the District Council
against the opposition of the Com

agreement and the present policy
of the officials of the union, the
policy of attempting to offer the
manufacturers wage levels lower

Union Is suicidal policy that will
lead to continuous wage cuts and
to the smashing of all union or

Haverhill strike and the present
wave Of strikes throughout the en-

the United Shoe and Leather Work
ers Union adopted in their consti-
tuition program for a class strug-
gle union and that only by follow
ing this policy could the union be
strengthened and real concessions
be forced from the manufacturers
instead of the union making con-
cessions to the bosses.
Hallet of the General Executive
Board, who was one of those re-
sponsible for the sell-out Of the
Haverhill strike, took the floor after
Sparks had spoken and admitted
that he had opposed the strike
there. While he was speaking over

the meeting walked out.
