prisonment and out on bail pending
appeal, is continuing his working
class activities and is now on his
way to the National Congress for
Unemployment and Social Insur-
ance which meets in Washington,
DC, Jan. to 7.
A warrant has been issued for
De Jonge's arrest on new criminal
syndicalism charge, and local off,
Gals are keeping the wires hot in
an attempt to intercept him before
he reaches Washington. The pur-
pose Of the criminal syndicalism
laws to smash the struggles Of the
working class is clearly shown in
this latest attack on De Jonge, and
the following vail in the Oregon
Journal of Dec. 81:
Although the $3.50 expense OF

DETROIT, Jan. a - What price

The Jewish Master Bakers Asso-
citation has turned over reward Of
$500 to Joseph Haftka, bakery own
er, for identifying" Meyer Weiner,
~. member Of Jewish Bakers Union,
Local 70 "a. F. Of L. as the man
who killed his son, Harry.
Young Haftka was slain the night
of Dec. IL while he and his father
were taking scabs in a car to their
bakery where a strike has been in
progress for several months.
Weiner, together with % other
members OF the union, was held by
police for eight days, during which
time the elder Haftka failed to
identify him despite the fact that
Weiner had worked for him two
years and he therefore knew him
we'll. Not till the ninth day did
Haftka suddenly recognize" Weiner
as the slayer; he Immediately col
lected the reward.
1t is understood that the $500 is
only part of a larger fund that the
bakery bosses are collecting in an
effort to smash the union. To help
swell their war chest. they closed
their shops for one day 'in memory
of" the slain man and deducted
s5.75 from each of their workers
wages. They are also planning tt
introduce wage cuts.
Weiner is scheduled to come uI
for examination before Judge
Jeffries on Jan. 8. The following day
he and % others will come up or

operation of a business and con-
spiracy to extort. Samuel B. Keen,

Workers Win
l-Day Strike
On Relief Jobs

LANCASTER, Pa, Jan. liam
caster unemployed workers are
sweeping forward to increased or
ganizational activity following the
winning of important work relief
concessions last week in a one-day
strike.
Realizing that the promise made
by the relief officials will be kept
and new demands won only by
greater organizational strength, the
workers are striving to form job
committees on each project and
bringing every unemployed worker
into the Workers Protective Associa-
ton.
Last week, delegation from the
executive committee of the Workers
Protective Association met with Re-
lief Director Flood, and Misses Doty
and Radel and Mrs Siedle, members
of the relief administration.
Win Committee Demand
In addition to winning full recog-
milton of the Workers Protective
Association, Relief Director Flood
will meet with the heads of the job
committees each week to settle lob
grievances.
Other demands won include pay
ment of streetcar fare to all relief
workers in addition to the budget,
one hours pay on rainy days, cash
payment by supplementary check
where budget is cut from eight to
seven units Ca unit is three days of
six hours work; man works any
where from two to seven units a
month according to the size of his
family, payment of a bonus at the
end of the fifth week, and granting
direct relief for two weeks after a
man goes to work.
Learned from Experience
Past experience has shown the
unemployed workers of Lancaster
that the promises of the relief ad-
ministration mean nothing unless
BACKED up by militant organization
that is alert to every maneuver of
the relief set-up and is ready to
counter every move or attempt to
cut relief. The Workers Protective
Association calls upon all unem-
ployed and relief workers to close
ranks and present strong fighting
front to maintain the relief coz oes-
sions already won.
The Workers Protective Associa-
ton has already elected delegates
and will be represented at the Ma
tionsl Congress for Unemployment
Insurance.

Joint conference on assistance in
achieving all demands.
One delegate read a Federated
Press dispatch describing the recent
truce" conference in Washington,
the role of Madame Perkins, Pres
ident Roosevelt, and others at the
conference. Expressions of resent
ment could be heard from every
part of the hall as the workers
realized how close to betrayal they
had been.
A resolution was passed warning
the international officials and Pres
ident Roosevelt that no truce would
be accepted, nor any agreement ex-
cept one approved by the member
ship of the union.

last convention.
In the face of a determined rank
and file, the national officials feared
to oppose even the Feb. 3 meeting,
the resolutions introduced from the
floor going through with almost
every delegate nodding his head in
approval.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Jan. mike

there, will be outside the union

Maxim Gorky, internationally cele-

Following upon this murder,

Guild Pickets
To Greet Train
of Publisher

NEWARK, N. j., Jan. 2.-Strik-
ing editorial workers of the Newark
Ledger, having learned that Lucius
T. Russell, publisher of the Ledger,
left his palatial home in Beverly
Hills, Calf, on Dec. 30, for Newark,
have announced that a picket dem
onstration will meet him in New
York when he arrives. 1t is believed
that he will take the Broadway
Limited from Chicago. Guild
members along his route from CAL
ifornia, the strike committee re-
ports, will be informed of the time
the train passes their respective
cities so they can greet him with
picket signs.
Last Sunday night police were
told a rock was thrown through the
window of the home of Charles T
Marshall, strikebreaking as city
editor of the Ledger, and president
of the American Editorial League,
an organization of strikebreakers
Irvington police sent to the scene
were accompanied by Bill Gordon
Guild member and reporter of the
Star Eagle. When Gordon intro
duced himself to Marshall, the
strikebreaker Immediately pointed
finger at him and shouted: CAR
rest that man. He broke my win
dow" Police pointed out however
that Gordon was with them and
ridiculed the charge.
The strike committee issued q
statement pointing out that it is
not responsible for the act, but is
conducting an investigation to de-
termine if the Marshall incident
was not manufactured as a means
Of throwing discredit upon the
strikers.
