which were found to exist largely
in the rank and file of the profes-
sion. Similar frankneSs was not
found in many other quarters.
He said:
81 know there is a movement
afOOt to get me out, but the
real reason is not being given.
FOUGHT RACKETEERS
"The real reason is that I
opposed racketeering, opposed
the cracking down on the small
tailor, and tried to take the
small mans side.
There's racketeering, alright.
Plenty of it. Racketeering
under the flag of the NRA.
Let me show you why.
"WhO. for instance, is prose
cutting the small viOIatOrS? You
will find it is only the trade
associations. They are prose
cutting him primarily because
they want to collect 81 month
dues from him.
"The NRA was looked upon
by these associations as a god
send. In the prosperous years
most tailOrs belonged to them,
that is, they paid So a month
dues. That's all that belonging
to these trade associations
amount tO-paying 81 a month
dues.
"In the depression years, the
paying membership fell away to
practical nothing. There aren't
more than a few hundred paid
up members in all the five
borough associations, although
the old unpaid members are
carried on the books because it
looks good. 1t came in handy,
too, when the code was formed
because these associations
with practically no members,
were allowed to elect one of
their own officers, or members,
to the code authority, on the
strength of the long, meaning
less membership rolls.
"When the code authority

a stop to hauling little tailors into
court-and that from now on they
are going to devote themselves to
fighting the chain stores.
At the same time Milton Glad
stone, $1-a-year counsel for the
authority, who was brought into
the picture recently, said he was
informed that Mr.. SilverStein
would be removed by Chairman
Hardness of the National Code
Authority.
Mr.. Silverstein, however, told
the Journal he has received no
notice of his removal, that indeed
he was asked for no officlel ex-
planation of his acts and he still
considers himself vice chairman.
Mr.. Silverstein said a lot more:
"What can they remove me
for? For cutting prices? That's
bunk. know of my own knOwl-
edge that two other members of
the code authority have been
violating the code prices right
along and are doing it today"
Bold About Price Cuts
He was interviewed in one of
his new black and orange stores
on Bell Avenue, Bayside. A flam-
boyant sign announced boldly
that suits would be cleaned and
pressed for 49 cents, which IS 81
cents below the code price, and
that pressing would be done for
Is cents, which is 10 cents below
the same price. It was for charging
these precise prices that small, un-
influential tailors have been fined,
given suspended Jail sentences,
and for which scores are now
awaiting trial.
In fairness to Mr.. Silverstein, it
should be stated that, when ap-
preached he made no effort to
conceal the act that he organized
the chain of 80 cut-rate stores,
known as the Unit Cooperative
Stores, after his appointment to
the craftsmanship. He spoke Of it
