The Associate Marine
Workers Ballot For
Strike in City
BUS MEN STILL OUT
Is, 900 KnitgoodsW Ork-
ers Have Demands
Before Employers

NEW YORK.-All painting jobs.
in this city were at standstill as
a general strike of Greater New
York's 1900 painters went into ef-
feet yesterday. A rising sweep OF
strikes was forecast as members Of
the Associated Marine Workers
voted for strike and more than
$4,000 knitgoods workers had their
demands before the employers. The
Staten Island bus drivers strike
continued.
The painters, members of District
Council 8 of the Brotherhood OF
Painters, left their jobs and were
registering throughout the day in
nine union halls.
Plans for picketing in mass for
nation have been announced by the
various locals and will take place
today. Meanwhile the Police De-
partment announced that 1t was
taking steps ito prevent unlawful
picketing."
Just what is meant by unlawful
picketing" the police have not maze
clear. 1t is obvious, however, that
General Organ, following his anti
labor politics, is cooking up a plan
to terrorize the strikers with a big
showing of heavily armed police.
Answer to Threat
The walkout is an answer to the
Master Painters Associations threat
to lock out all union painters to
force a wage cut and an increase in
the hours of labor. The union agree
ment called for the 7-hour day and
the SO wage scale. The Master
Painters want to cut the scale down
to 81 an hour for the eight hour
day
Rank and file painters in the
various locals are putting forward
the demand for SO per day and the
six hour day.
Mr.. Philip zausner, who is now
grazing the chair of secretary
treasurer of the Council through
fraudulent voting in the recent cleo
tons, who is now posing as the lead
err of the strike, has always given
his support to the boss painters.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 30. - The
sentiment of the packing house

that A. F. Of l.. officials are having

taking its cue from Vigilante at
tacks against the San Francisco
strikers, published a direct incite-
ment to fascist and business ele-
ments to attack Communist head
quarters in Chicago.
The article calls for reviving the
union league clubs as terrorist
groups to drive "agitators" out of
the city. The Tribune verbally
yearns for the good old days when
copper heads were tarred and feath-
cred or ridden on a rail, and states
that among many of the mem
bers Of the present Uunion League
Club. There has been dis
cussion Of renewing the old
methods the founders applied so
successfully against subversive agi-
tators."
In spite of postponement of the
butchers walk out, spirit among the
strikers for general strike is on the
increase. Two hundred or more
men were around the gates this
morning.
A striker told the reporter of
working Is hours day for 10
hours pay He had hopes the strike
was taking on new life and would
spread.

War Plains
Are Rushed
By Britain
Baldwin Tells Commons
of 1904 More Planes
For Air Force

LON DON, July 30.-Admitting
that war is rushing on headlong in
Europe, and that the British gov
eminent is now preparing for that
war, Stanley Baldwin, Lord Presi-
dent OF the Council, declared in the
House Of Commons today that
Britain would speed its plans for
increasing the air forces.
Baldwin announced that the
British air forces would be increased
in four years from 844 to 1904
planes. Actually, Britain now has
more than 5000 fighting planes,
and the increase will be much
greater than that publicly stated by
Baldwin. Neither will British i'm
perialism wait four years to COM
plete its plans, in view of the
openly expressed conviction of
Baldwin that war is near.
Arguing for the increased air
force, Baldwin said Since the days
of the air arrived old frontiers are
gone. When you think of the de-
Tense of England you no longer
think of the chalk cliffs Of Dover.
You think Of the Rhine. That is
where our frontier lies"
The significance of this state
ment, that Fascist Germany is now
the frontier of British imperialism,
is shown by Baldwins virtual sane
tioning of German Fascism's right
to re-arm because of her absolute
defenselessness in the air"
Baldwin further declared that air
war maneuvers would soon take
place in England, involving $4,000
persons, and including the cooper
alton of local government authori-
ties and public utility corporations.
One of the reasons given by
Baldwin for the increased air arma-
ments was the program of the
Roosevelt government for adding
l,184 planes to the naval service of
the United States.
Various Labor members of parlia-
nlent declared their regrets" at
the new steps for arn1ing announced
by Baldwin, saying it tended ito en-
courage a revival of dangerous and
wasteful competition in prepara-
ton for war"
They added nothing, however, to
the Labor Party's declaration that
it would support British imperial
ism in defensive" war.

LABOR FIGHT SUMMARY

Twenty union and labor
representatives protested to Mayor
LaGuardia against the attempt of
the Police Department to register
union leaders.
Joseph Ryan, president Of the
Central Trade and Labor Council
said, ut Is perfectly proper that
the police should organize unit
to take care of the Reds. 1t is
a police matter" he said, "some-
body must stop these Communists
from running riot, and 1t is per-
fectly proper for Commissioner
Organ to take the matter up.
The labor movement must be rid
Of the Communists"

In an attempt to hedge arounc
the order and at the same tint
support it, the Mayor said that thu

ORCHESTRA PRIZES
GIVEN STUDENTS
Seven .Year.0Id Boy Wins
First Place for Naming
Instruments.
BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

At the final students concert OF
the National Symphony Orchestra
yesterday, at Central High School,
prizes for the contest of March for
naming different instruments were
awarded. Fifteen prizes were given,
the gold medal going to Theodore
Stoddard. years old, who correctly
named all the instruments.
The special feature of yesterday S
concert was the music memory test
The opening eight measures of
selected compositions were played
from the number chosen in the be-
ginning Of the season for the contest
and which were designated on each
program of the children's and stu
dents concerts. The outcome OF this
test will be made known later and
the prizes sent to the winning chill
dren.
The concert also finished the in
struction in musical form which has
been progressively developed through
out the season, the last symphonic
movement, the rondo. being ex-
planned by DR.. Hans Kinder, con-
ductor, yesterday. In illustration,

phony in G. Major" was played. In
further demonstration the ale
gretto from Cesar Francks Sym
phony in D Minor" in which is COM
bined two symphony movements, was
added.
Preceding the opening number,
the overture to Wagner's Flying
Dutchman," DR.. Kinder explained
the story and described an overture,
as Wagner wrote it, as a mirror re-
flecting the different characters, the
atmosphere and the general idea OF
the story. The third composition
played by the orchestra was Rimsky-
Korsakov's "Fandango."
With the prize winners Of the
March contest grouped about him,
DR.. Kinder directed the singing of
"Auld Lang Syne." In a farewell
word to the children DR.. Kinder said
how much he had enjoyed these
concerts and how much he would re-
gret their discontinuance next year
for lack of funds to support the or
chestra for another season. The chill
dren responded with warm and pro-
longed applause that was indicative
of the appreciation of this young
audience for these concerts arranged
especially for their benefit.
