A series of auto strikes in the Sea

the latter part of February. Around
1900 are striking in Kenosha auto

Milwaukee.
The workers are striking for a 10
per cent increase in wages and rec

Picket lines have been attacked in
an effort to break The Kenosha

which the bosses are going in order
to drive the workers back before the

dressed by the company to each of
the workers refusing the demands
of the strike raised by the A. F. c.

The letter shows that the Nash
Motors Co. officials are stiffening
their resistance, in view of the de-
termination of the National Auto
mobile Chamber of Commerce,
aided by the N. r. A. to smash the
auto strike movement.
The Nash company officials use
as one of their most powerful
weapons against the workers the
merit clause" in the auto code
signed by the A. F. of L, officials on
the National Labor Board last
August. One Of the demands raised
by the workers committee was:
Seniority in employment shall be
recognized at all times. No en-
ployae shall be discharged except
for just cause and after hearing,
if demanded by the employee af-
fected."
To this Nash replied:
1--WE expect to follow the merit
clause in the automobile code and
to select, retain or advance en-
ployees on the basis of individual
merit. without regard to their mem

DETROIT, Mich, March q
To defeat the tactics of
crushing the auto strike and
debating the strike spirit of
the workers, the Auto Work
ers' Union this morning issued
call to all plants for fiye-minute
stoppage of work Thursday az
l pm.
The statement Of President
Roosevelt and the A. F. Of L. lead
ers succeeded in delaying the strike
action scheduled for nine o'clock
this morning. This was made pos
sible, however, only through rail-
reading tactics pursued by the A.
F. of L. officials, who ditched the
workers demands regarding wages
and speed-up, as admitted in the
latest dispatches in the Detroit
press. easing up on strike de-
mands," which means selling out
also the question of recognition Of
the union.
The A. F. of L. officials took their
action in Pontiac, carefully staying
away from Detroit and from the
rank and file.
The Auto Workers Union is call
ing for stoppage in order to
demonstrate for the demands Of the
workers and against the tactics of
the A. F. Of L. officialdom.
"ShOw What We Want!S
The Auto Workers Union call
reads, in part:
Show the President what we
want. Stop work five minutes on
Thursday at l pm. The employers
say the workers want the company
unions We want the right to join
real workers unions. The COM
panies say we are satisfied with our
present wages. We want a s35
minimum wage for 30-hour week,
and a 30 per cent increase for those
getting above this minimum. Show
that our ranks are solid and we
mean to fight until we win. Let

we will not be bluffed. The con-
