LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. ia
flying squadron from Lebanon and
Reading, comprising more than 300
workers, stormed into town at 6
a. m. today. Picketing at the Stehli
Silk Mill began at once. The major
ity of the Lancaster police force and
State troopers were called out as
the pickets grew to 1000.
When the police tried to break up
the picketing, a fight began in
which seven workers we're arrested,

others injured by State police, who
were brought in despite Pinchot's
promise not to use them to break
up picketing.
The plant was still going with SO

Attempts will be made today to
close the Stehli mill.

PATERSON, N. j., Sept. H.
Silk workers here have already been
on strike week, and still the dyers
have not been called out The only
reply that Eli Keller, A. F. of S. w.
official, gives the workers is that
they are having conference.
Silk and dye workers alike, who
are tired of hearing Keller talk
about conferences, are demanding
that the dye shops be closed down
immediately. They realize that a
complete victory cannot be won in
Paterson unless every shop-brcad
silk, jacquard, throwing and dye
plants-are ell shut down.
Five silk shops were closed this
morning by militant flying squad
ron organized by young silk work
ers and aided by Paterson members
of the Young Communist League.
Another squadron picketed the large
jacquard plant of John Hand & Co.
for several hours. The strikers were
told that this plant would close to-
night.
A rank and file committee of Is,
elected at an opposition meeting
Monday night, is going to meet
ing of Paterson jacquard workers
tonight to demand that the jacquard
workers continue striking and also
that the strike be spread to mills
still open.
1t was learned today that Peter
Van Horn, head of the bosses Code
Authority, had sent a wire to Pater-
son manufacturers last week advis-
ing them, if they wanted to keep
mills open, to wire the Governor of
New Jersey and ask for militia, as
has been done by the Governors of
North and South Carolina.

For Strike
N. Y. Demonstration to
Call for Unity With
Textile Workers

NEW YORK Workers of New
York will demonstrate their soh-
darity with textile strikers on Union
Square today at 430 p. m.
The heroic struggle of hundreds
Of thousands off militant textile
workers has aroused the greatest
enthusiasm among New York
workers.
The organized and unorganized
workers of New York City realize
that the textile workers strike in
wolves the most vital issues of the
working -class-the right to organize
into unions of their own choice,
decent living conditions, and hui
man treatment. The workers of
New York City have always been
in the forefront in support of other
striking workers and have gen.
erously assisted the textile workers
in historic strikes in Passaic and
New Bedford.
The militancy Of the textile
workers in the present strike, their
determination to win their demands
regardless of the terror and ruth
less murder tactics used by the
bosses and the government to
crush the strike, calls for the sup
port of every worker.
The labor committee, representing
A. F. of L. independent, and T. u.
U. L, unions, which has organized
this demonstration, is confident
that tens of thousands of workers
will respond and that this meeting
will voice its vigorous protest
against the terror, against the at
tempts of the officials of the United
Textile Workers to sell out the strike
through arbitration, and will mark
the beginning of real mass cam
paign for relief to help win the
greatest strike in the history of
American labor.
All workers, members of the A.
F. of L., t. U. U. L., independent
unions, organized, and unorganized,
professional and intellectual work
ers are called upon to come out in
masse to show their solidarity with
the militant textile workers.
The speakers will include Israel
Amter, Communist Party candid

GREENSBORO, N. c., Sept. IL
A flying squadron of 1900 strikers
swept through Kannapolis today in
a 100-car motorcade in defiance of
an official order of John Peel, U.
T. w U. leader, that the squadrons
should be dispersed.
Troops deployed across the streets
to meet them were jeered as the
squadron members who came from
Gastonia, Salisbury, Mooresville and
China Grove appeared in front of
the Cannon Mills, where they urged
the workers to join the strike.
Preparations are being made to
strike at all High Point hosiery
plants tomorrow. Three of the
hosiery plants failed to open today,
following the wounding of six pick
cts by National Guard bayonets
last night.

Swift Execution


NEW YORK.-Moving pictures
of Ernest Thaelmann, German
working class leader facing death
at the hands of the Nazis, have
been struggled out of Germany
and will be shown here on Sept.
10, 20, 81 and ~ at the Twenty
eighth Street Theatre, at 28th st.
and Broadway.
PARIS, Sept. -Behind-the-
scenes parleys at the Nazi party
congress in Nuremburr the purpose
of which is to organize the swift
execution Of Ernst Thalemann, i'm
prisoned Communist leader, are now
going on, the World Committee to
Aid the Victims of Fascism learned
here yesterday. Thaelmann has
been in Jail for the last nineteen
months.
On Sept. a preliminary confer
ence of provincial leaders was held
at which Goebbels, fascist minister
Of propaganda, announced the tasks
of the coming winter Attacking
the campaign for the freedom of
Thaelmann as "the Communist In
ternational's pivot of anti-German
agitation throughout the world,
Goebbels proposed speedy measures
for doing away with Thaelmann and
other political prisoners. He rec
commended to the assembly plan
of accomplished facts" Under no
circumstances, the Nazi minister
warned, we're there to be long poll
tical trials involving international
press discussions and comments
from all cources.
Fears Another Leipzig
His reference to long interna-
tional trials, it is pointed out, was
obviously to the Leipzig trial of
George Dinitroff, Ernst Torgler
Basil Taneff and Blagoi Popoff
Reichstag fire defendants who were
acquitted after a lengthy trial. The
new Peoples Courts" Goebbels
said, could operate as quickly as
military tribunals.
In a discussion, Julius Streicher
of Nuremberg demanded that for
every new development of the jew
ish German boycott, a Jewish
prisoner shall be publicly beheaded
He further recommended the con-
centration on terrorism against the
German working class and it's lead
ers.
Favor Star Chamber
The general sentiment expressed
in the assembly was favoring the
star-chamber work of the Peoples
Courts with exclusion of the public
and any observer, particularly with
regard to the Communist leaders
and the other 800 hostages whose

DAILY Worker Washington Bureaul


WASHINGTON, Sept. II. 49, Will
liam Green, president of the A. 2.
of L., today postponed the confer
ence of International A. F. of L.
Union officers until the opening of
the A. F. of L. National Conven-
ton in San Francisco in October.
In announcing the postponement
Of the conference, which was to
convene tomorrow for the purpose
of voting financial assistance to the
textile strike, Green said that plans
have been altered so as to throw
into the textile strike Immediately
the largest volume of support"
German, who has been working
here under the direct orders of
Greer informed newspapernen
that he was very pleased with Mr..
Green's announcement" Since the
day Green bawled him out for his
premature statement that the In
ternational Unions might strike in
sympathy with the textile workers,
German has never strayed off the
A. F. Of L. reservation.
1.-THE national conference itself
has not been abandoned" said
Green. 1T will be held in San
Francisco, instead, as a special or
der of business at the opening
[Oct. 1.-Edl of our convention.
There is no doubt about the action
that will be taken then"
Offers Excuse
The excuse Green offers for call
ing off the scheduled conference
explains: II have found that many
officials of unions are about to start
for San Francisco, where conyen-
lions of the departments of the A.
F. of L. will begin next week, How
ever, much they would like to, thsy
cannot change their plans. AS a
consequence, it has been decided to
reach a number of organizations
Immediately by telephone and in in
dividual conferences in Washing
ton wherever possible"
AS an attempted face-saver, Green
declared:
IT am calling upon all national
and international unions, upon all
State Federations of Labor and up
on all central bodies and trades
councils to lend all possible assist
ance to the United Textile Workers
at once, in advance of the San
Francisco meeting. This struggle
is of such immense importance that
all organized labor must do every
thing possible to assist in now elm
mating the abuses in the nations
textile mills out of which this ire
mendous protest has grown. This
strike will be won"
Newspapermen here were nearly
unanimous in interpreting Green's
anti-strike timed declaration as
both a plea to employers to join
the U. t. w. in their arbitration
scheme and as knife thrust at
the growing strike.
