\fEAhlNG of war, ii Is interesting
- TO learn that the senate mission TO
the Philippines has discovered that
those stands possess the most i'm
portant source of war material under
the American flag" Senator Tydings
OF Maryland sen the word from Manila
that there are in Zambales province
deposits of chromite so large that
they have attracted the attention of
other nations. John w. Haussermann,
dean OF the islands gold mining indus
try, told the senators these deposits
may soon take their place as one of
the most important ore bodies In the
world, and he added significantly that
chromium is the one war material
which the United States does not have
IN ample quantities within its borders.
These deposits in the Philippines were
discovered after the Tydings-McDufie
independence act was drafted. 1t Is
easy to see that this news will be of
immense interest to Japan, which, in
Its plans for territorial expansion, is
ever on the lookout for war material
sources.

\COHttHUeU from Oye -
Detroit: What is most wanted is an Automobile
Labor Board organized under the National Labor
Relations Board"
To follow the road proposed by Green would
defeat all the demands of the auto workers, Just
as these demands defeated in March 1884
At that time Green made similar proposals. Green
at that time signed the pact which set up the
present Auto Labor Board. He declared this pact,
which legalized company unions and established
proportional representation, was victory" for the
workers. Green accepted the merit clause in the
code in August 1888 Green said in March 1884 that
the Auto Labor Board was an impartial" board
Now Green would once more sidetrack a strike,
and set up another N.R.A, government board All
of these boards set up by the government are not
impartial, they are instruments of the employers,
and invariably carry out the will Of the manufac
turers. Past experience has proven this. 1t was
the Roosevelt government and its N r A. which
brought the workers to their present deplorable
plight. But Green still refers to the NR.A. as the
Magma Charta" Of labor, and wants to replace
strike by another employer controlled board

the best suited for a showdown, and
that such showdown is vitality nee
eSsary for the growth and strength
ening of the union throughout
Greater New York, as well as for
forcing the owners to sign up in the
garment center.
The setting up Of q broad strike
committee consisting of delegates
elected by shop meetings was held
by these workers to be a prerequisite
for successful strike.
Greatly agitated by the orders of
the union to return to work last
week, without any kind of settle
ment, the workers stated that this
time they will return to work only
after agreements are signed and ap-
proved by them.
The situation in Brooklyn and the
Bronx has not changed in the last
three days. In the Bronx strike &C
ton was postponed to March 4,
which Is the deadline given the
realty owners by the union.
Bronx workers expressed their
dissatisfaction over this delay by
Louis Cooper of Local lob, claim
ing that this gives the owners ample
time to get ready to break the strike.

The company has been preparing
an attempt to smash the strike with

guards threatened to shoot pickets
at 49th Street and Ninth Avenue,

Similar expressions of solidarity
and support to the building service
workers have been received by the
union from numerous unions and
other workers organizations.
In a statement issued last week
Irving Potash, secretary of the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union, pledged the cooperation Of
the membership Of the union to the
elevator men on strike. He stated
that the needle workers would re-
fuse to walk up or ride in soak
driven elevators and will cooperate
in every way possible.
Flatly refusing to let the dispute
go back to the Curran committee

Prior to rushing the pickets, at
tempts were made to read the anti
picketing injunction to the strik-
ers so that there would be technical
grounds for holding the arrested
workers for contempt of court, but
shouting from the large crowd made
that impossible. Wholesale arrests
followed. Each patrol load of pick

issued a circular for general distri-
button among all workers; it reads
in part:
Miners Don't Scab!
1.-THE interests Of all labor crafts
are involved.
Outrageous, Illegal and uncon-
stitutional attacks through the
courts have been made against the
striking miners, and if these in
fringements on the rights Of people
and the rights of labor are per-
mitted, an labor will suffer the con-
sequences of such presidents.
"a murderer VINO shot down a
striking miner in cold blood is re-
leased on two thousand five hun
dred bail. Miners are ordered by
court to be evicted from their
homes, and judges plainly preju-
diced by present or previous con-
nections and interests with the coal
companies sit as the court in almost
all Of these cases in violation of
all principles of justice and equal
ity."
The statement of the new union
points out that the miners Of other
companies will also suffer If the
injunction is enforced.
Rank and file miners in the union
nevertheless point out that the
statement does not call for the
smashing Of the injunction, by
means Of a broad mass fight, with
demonstrations and increased pick
citing. Such measures 1t is expected
will be decided for at a district
meeting tonight Of all local pres
idents and secretaries. Strikers will
propose that appeals be made to
miners Of other coal companies to
join behind the struggle.
