Hopes To Salvage As Much As
Possible OF Benefits Accruing

Bill Being Drafted At White
House Seeking Continuation
OF NRA After June Is

Copyright, 1885, BY United Press
WASHINGTON, June 4. U,P)-
President Roosevelt and his advis-
ers in two special conferences to-
day determined on maintenance of
the existing NRA organization as
the first step in salvaging as much
as possible of the code benefits, the
United Press was informed by
participant in the discussions.
The President was described as
feeling that first of all it was vital
to hold together the NRA organ
ization and retain for the govern
ment the benefit of its broad ex-
perience of guiding American bus
mess for two years under the now
invalid codes.
The necessity for retaining the
organization. which would expire
June Is, was a foremost topic at
this mornings special cabinet meet
ing.
A White House conference this
afternoon between the President
and legislative and recovery chiefs
| was being devoted almost exclusive
ly to the drafting of proposed bill
to extend the NRA organization,
1t was said.
WASHINGTON, June 4. U.p)-A
piece-by-piece repair of the NRA
was the program agreed upon to-
day in a conference between Pres
ident Roosevelt and his cabinet,
survey of the situation revealed.
Cabinet officers, after an extra
ordinary White House session at
which the whole picture was can
vaSsed, were fairly well in agree
ment that the emergency would be
met piecemeal, by individual efforts
a.. to bolster the main phases of the
recovery structure.
While they were in agreement in
asserting that certain conclusions
were reached, they left the reveal
ing of details to the President.
They did, however, discuss the
Wagner labor disputes bill, the
Guffey coal control bill, and the
social security program.
Whether these three would COM
prise part of q revamped NRA
was not stated.

Today the only party that carries
forth the revolutionary traditions of
the Revolution of 1776 and the
Civil War of 1860-64, under present
conditions and relations of classes,
is the Communist Party. Never was
there a generation of youth so COM

Washington Was Called Traitor for Civil War
Against King George and Tory Hired Lackeys

Today will be heard hundred
and one sentimental tales about the
virtues of the Father of Our Coun-
try All these tales are designed
to hide the fact that Washington
and his rich ellow-merchants and
"smugglers" unfurled the flag of
Revolution and Civil War against
King George III and his Tory hired
lackeys.
While we Young Communists re-
ject all these sentimental myths
that are spun around him, we how
ever, do not belittle in any way the
useful progressive, REVOLUTION
AIRY part he played in United
States history. He and his fellow
rebels used the revolutionary
weapon of civil war to save his
country from the curse of English
tyranny. For this Washington was
called a traitor" by the Tories and
the Hessians, the latter being hired
soldiers imported from Germany by
England.

union IN the industry.
This decision was a unanimous
of the report and rec
of Ben Gold, general
secretary of the industrial union.
In his report, Gold recommended
that the union send a letter to the
Joint Council "a. F. of L. propos-
ing a meeting as soon as possible
to discuss ways and means Of unit
ing all the workers of the industry
into one union, affiliated with the
A. F. of L., for the purpose of
strengthening the forces of the
workers against the employers. This
letter, a tentative copy of which
was read, will be sent to the Joint
Council of Fur Workers.
Thus, on the basis of Colds re-
port, the Fur Workers Industrial
Union, which is by far the most
powerful trade union factor in the
industry, is making every effort to
unite with the Joint Council in
the interests of unity in the trade.
Outlining the advances which the
union had made in the past five
years, in winning wage scales and
improved conditions, Gold made it
clear that now the situation de-
manded the unity of the trade into
one union.
Unity As a Body
Now we make every effort, we
use every means, we try to remove
every obstacle, that stands in the
way of unity of all fur workers"
Gold declared as the workers APP
plauded enthusiastically.
I'VE propose unity to the Joint
Council. We will do everything in
our power to arrange friendly,
comradely, disciplined discussion
with them We will discuss every
thing openly and above-board so
that every step can be acted on by
the workers themselves" Gold con-
tinued.
with such action on our part
the whole issue of unity in the
trade, into one A. F. of L. union,
becomes sharp and clear" he con-
tinued. Some comrades are worried
about the name, the A. F. of L.
Gold said But it is not the name
that counts. II is the policy, it is
the interests of the workers and
how they are defended" he said

as the workers again greeted him
with applause.
Unity with the Joint Council on
the basis of entrance into the A. r.
of L. as body, with full and equal
rights, and with full trade union
democracy-this was the keynote of
Colds recommendations.
What will we DO if they refuse
to unite with us?" Gold asked. His
answer was greeted with tremend-
Gus applause;
Against Individual Joining
Then we will know how to act,
and the workers will know why we
are acting. Then we will fight the
Joint Council as the main and OBJ
vious obstacle to unity of the fur
workers, as menace to the in
terests of the fur workers, as some
thing that has to be done away
with for that reason"
I'VE will not break up our power
full union which has won such VIC
tories for the workers, in order to
enter the Joint Council one by one, y
Gold declared He warned that
such action would inevitably open
the fur workers to discrimination,
blacklist, and explosions, and that
they would find themselves in the
position where they would have to
build their union all over again.
He warned the workers against
the illusion that the mere existence
of one union will guarantee i'm
provements in the trade. 1--WE form
one union that we may be able to
struggle better, to fight better. And
it is how we fight that will decide
all these questions" Gold stated.
