ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Oct. T.
Two hundred F. E. R. A. relief work.
ers here have strucq on the Abse-
con watershed project Wednesday,
demanding full payment of all
wages in cash.
A drive was begun by the relief
Office here to engage other unem-
ployed to fill the jobs and an ulti-
matum was delivered to the strikers
that if they did not report for work
within three days they would be
cut off all relief.
Under the present relief set up in
New Jersey the relief workers are
paid only a fraction of their wages
in cash. A food order is issued and
only in the most exceptional cases

C.P. Election Meeting
Results in Formation
Of Party Unit in Troy

TROY, N. Y, Oct. 7.--As the re-
suit Of an election campaign meet
ing on the City Hall steps addressed
by Emanuel Levin, Communist can
didate for Congressman at-large, a
new Communist Party unit is be-
ing formed here.
More than $50 workers listened
eagerly to Levin's explanation of
the Communist Party program and
deluged him with questions when
he was through talking.
Levin met with similar response
at a meeting in Johnstown despite
the efforts of hoodlums to break
up the meeting. More than 300
workers attended. Clarence Carr,
president of the Local Shoe and
Leather workers Independent
Union, and candidate for Con-
gresham, also spoke.

Military Law Ordered
by Bridgetown Sheriff

BRIDGETOWN, Pa, Oct. PRO
hibition of assemblies of "all per-
sons on the streets and highways
Of this city and denying the textile
workers their most elementary
rights, has been ordered by Sheriff
Haseltine S. Lever Of Montgomery
County.
This action was prompted by the
fear of the authorities that the in
dignation of the textile strikers
over the killing of a worker by five
deputy sheriffs last Wednesday
could not be controlled by the local
police.
In an effort to protect these
deputies from the wrath of the
workers, Acting Chief of Police
Orf1o COLOUR Of Bridgetown had
them taken home in civilian
clothes from the jail in Norristown,
where they were kept pending
hearing in court.

Cappelini Plan
TOEnd U.A.M.
Also Revealed
Two Anthracite Union
Chiefs Exposed in
Betrayal Deals

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Oct. t.
Revelation that Thomas Maloney,
district president Of the indepen-
dent United Anthracite Miners
Union Of Pennsylvania, has been
receiving $50 week from the An
thracite Cancellation Board struck
like bombshell on the. members
Of this insurgers union formed
from a split from the United Mine
Workers in 1888.
The revelation that Maloney has
been secretly on the payroll of the
government board, which has
worked hand in glove with the
hard coal employers to deny all the
miners grievances, followed on the
heels of the letter of Rinaldo Cap
pellini, state president of the
United, urging the return of the
UA.M. into the UM.W.A. Union,
The proposal of Cappellini came
like stab in the back to the
miners.
The Cancellation Board is known
by the miners as "the graveyard
of the miners rights" Cappellini'S
letter was sent from prison, where
he is serving a term in the Eastern
Penitentiary for violation of parole
following conviction on an arson
charge. Cappellini wrote; ut is
about time we stopped kidding our
selves that we represent the major
ity of the miners in District l."
Maloney felt forced to take a
stand against Cappellini's betrayal
because of the great indignation
of the miners.
Maloney declared that James
German, umpire of the Concilia-
ton Board, had attempted to per-
suade him to accept Cappellinis
proposal by offering him four
$5o-a-week jobs, to last for at least
one and a half years.
German thereupon made public
part of the Cancellation Boards
emergency payroll, paid by relief
funds, on which Maloney's name
appeared for several months for $50
q week. Several other high Off
GERS of the new union, however, are
still on the payroll, according to
German, who represents the board.
Cappellini's peace proposal was
sent also to District President John
Boylan of the U. M. w. A, the press
and others, and contained a plan
to put an end to strikes among
miners in the Wilkes-Barre and
Scranton area. The U. A. M. lead
ers claim a membership of over
10000 in the Pennsylvania mine
areas, employing a total of 10000.
Cappellini, it is commonly ru-
mored, has made deal with the
U. NJ. W. A. officials.
AS the U. A. M. leaders continue
their wrangle with the eventuality
in sight that the miners struggles
be turned over to the Cancellation
Board for settlement, in the hope
of eliminating strikes, conditions
among the anthracite miners are
worse than ever. About one-third
of the $4,000 are unemployed, with
many thousands working part time.
Machines are displacing many.
Fourteen per cent of the hard coal
output is mechanically handled, as
compared with 81 per cent in 1928.

Charges Discrimination Against Negroes

needy families in the city, children
undernourished and near starvation,
many Of them unable TO attend
school for lack of shoes or clothing,
living in houses which are unfit
for habitation-and demanded i'm
mediate action.
When it was pointed out that
police are used in some cases to
help deputies move the furniture Of
families into the street, some Of
the Councilmen denied that city
police are so used.
Negro Discrimination Charged
Relief officials were charged by
Doyle with continually discriminat-
ing against Negro workers.
Council, after hearing Doyle, sug-
geSted setting day for a further
hearing on these charges, at which
relief board representatives would
attend, together with representa-
tives Of the police department, so
that a definite policy could be
worked out.
The delegation agreed to the
holding of such a hearing, where
unemployed workers will present
conclusive evidence substantiating
the charges made.
The workers are determined to
force Council TO take direct action
to stop the wholesale evictions
scheduled in the city and to COM
pei the provision Of clothes and
decent houses for needy families.

Herrera is District Secretary Of

Shoe Leaders
Action Aids
CompanyUnion

LYNN, Mass, Oct. ACCORDING
to an announcement issued by the
Regional Labor Board as a result
of vote" taken by the workers in
the A. j. Jacobs Shoe Co., it was
claimed that the workers voted for
company union. Neither the resi-
dent General Executive Board of the
United Shoe and Leather Workers
Union nor the members of the Joint
Council of Lynn went so far as to
even insist that the union have rep
resentation on the counting of the
votes.
This followed a more treacherous
action of permitting the Regional
Labor Board to step into the picture
while the shop was under contract
for one year with the union. This
was the same shop for whom Mack
esey, general organizer Of the union,
signed an injunction against the
workers restraining them from mass
picleting.
The Mackesey-z Zimmerman clique
was given another setback last
week when, in addition to the cut
ters', lasters' and heelers' locals, the
Ironers, Finishers and Packers Local
No. 5 endorsed the resolution sent
in from New York Local No. %, pro-
testing against the action of the
G. E. B. in sending Israel thinner
man to make the G. E. B. report to
the New York local as a rank pro-
vocative act.
Heelers' Local No. 10 went on rec
ord Wednesday night instructing
their Joint Council delegates to
make motion in the Joint Council
against sanctioning any wage cuts
or regarding, which means wage
cuts, to any shop in Lynn in the
future.
