ELEVATORS MAY \ STOP RUNNING IN
 NEW YORK CITY
Strike Has Been Ordered
 for MOnday-ViOlence Is Expected

New York, Feb. 16-(UP)-Mil- itant labor threatened the nations largest city today through its most vulnerable service-elevators,, that take thousands up and down to offices and homes.
 A few hours after the building service employees international un- lon voted city wide strike affect. ing all office and apartment buildings, violence broke out in Harlem. Two men were wounded by police.
 The strike call will be effective Monday. The strength of the union is believed to be. formidable. At present several thousand building em mployes--elevator operators. win- dow washers, : porters-are on strike in Harlem and Washington Heights.
 Against the advice of leaders, the strike was voted last night. The arbitration award of a com mittee appointed by Mayor F. H. LaGuardia months ago was re- jected. The meeting was held in a hall that seats 10000. It was jam med, and 1000 listened through street amplifiers.
 A few hours later, the fight in Harlem attracted police. They thought a hold-up was in progress and fired several shots. Joseph Petrony. 24, and Albert E. Perry, 25, strikers, were wounded. Joseph Etteson was treated for a scalp wound. They were said to have tried to get employees of an apart- ment building to strike.
 The union men objected specif- ically to the setting of minimum wages at $20 a week for loft build ings and $22 week for certain types of office buildings without establishing differentials or even fixing minimum wages for the so- called better class" office build ings and apartment buildings.

Leauenworth Prison Head Much Amused At Rumor

Leavenworth, Kan, Feb. 16- (UP)-Warden Fred Zerbst of the federal penitentiary, heard rumors this week that Oscar Merrill Hart zell, now in prison as swindling ''liquidator" of the mythical Drake estate, had been released and was in England completing the work of paftitioning the fabulous es- tate. The warden chuckled over the false rumors.
 Throughout the Dakotas, Iowa and Wisconsin-the scenes of Hartzell's gigantic swindle-the faithful" have continued to re- pose their confidence in the smoothest confidence man of the decade.
 Hartzell's fraudulent scheme, the reports said, was still in opera tion and, with just few more contributions from his sheep, this shepherd of the fabled Drake

Campbell in- sisted on bringing two men with him but finally agreed to have one man accompany him. Frank Pc lera of 75 Phoenix avenue started into the building when Patrolmar Hickey interposed and insisted or a one-man delegation. Campbell objected and was arrested when apparently, he took exception to Patrolman Hickey's stand.
 Campbell is charged with breach of the peace. While being booked Campbell asked why he was being arrested. Patrolman Hickey stated that the arrest was because of failing to move when told to.
 What Campbell Said
 Haven't we the right to come into this City Hall and ask for jobs for men?'' asked Campbell. We are not trying to create trou- ble. We want jobs for the men who are starving in Waterbury. The men want jobs and they're going to get them."
 While Campbell and his group were congregated in front of the City Hall Patrolman Mates told him that he could take two men to see Executive Secretary Kelly. You'd better take two strong men with you, too," added Patrolman Mates.
 Over In Few Minutes
 The whole affair was over in a few minutes as events happened quickly.
 Superintendent of Police Joseph Fl. Mclean, in answer to question as to whether or not Campbell has been deprived of the opportunity of getting bondsmen in the past when he was arrested declared: Any time that anybody walks into the police department with a bond CamDbel will he releaaod :"

Steel Workers. On Guard!

THE manner in which the Executive
l Council of the American Federation of
Labor is approaching the question of the
organization drive in the steel and auto
industry should sound the note of warn
ing throughout the entire A. F. of L.
William Green, when confronted by
the demand of the Organizational Com
mittee representing the lodges of the A.
F. of L. steel union, did not dare to call
police and throw out the steel workers
spokesman as did Mike Tighe, president
of the Amalgamated Association. Green
was forced to listen to their demands that
the A. F. of L. Executive Council throw
its entire resources into the building of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel
and Tin Workers CA. F. of L..
The Organizational Committee did we'll
in achieving this interview and forcing
Green to give lip service to an organization
drive in steel. To that extent victory"
can be claimed. But they also did well in
not waiting around Washington, but in
going home to Immediately take leader
ship of the drive themselves.
So far the Executive Council has only
set up subcommittee of three, which in
cludes the reactionary Tobin, to make
recommendations" Mike Tighe has been
called into consultation.
These delays and consultations show
the reluctance of the A. F. of L. Executive
Council to take any real steps to organize
the unorganized steel workers and thus
prepare for the coming strike struggles.
The only necessary recommendations have
been made by the Organizational Commit
tee Of the A. A. lodges-which outlined
concrete program for the A. F. of L. Coun-
Gil to organize the industry
Every A. F. of L. local, every morgan
lied worker, should support the campaign
of the Organizational Committee to or
ganize the steel workers now.

providers Speech

THE fight for the building of mass La
Dor Party, based on the trade unions,
and organized for the defense of the in
terests of only one class, the working class,
has begun
The time has come when American
labor, rapidly seeing through the capital
ist class basis of the whole Roosevelt pro-
gram, is preparing to act politically as an
Independent class in opposition to all capt.
talist parties.
It is this which gives such Importance
to Earl Browder's speech on the Commu-
mist position on the Labor Party, printed
in today's issue
In his speech, which every reader of
the Daily Worker should study with the
greatest care, Browder drives home this
main point-that the Communist Party
today emphasizes the need for a mass La
Dor Party so that the American working
class can march steadily forward in poll
tieal offensive against its class enemies.
It is the political class action of the
workers that is the essential thing. Too
long has American labor fought heroically
on the picket lines. only to fling away all
its gains by supporting on the political
field, the agents of the employers.
To win the American masses, now be-
coming disillusioned with the New Deal
for program Of struggle against capital
ism viz the path of class Labor Party
that Is the burning political task of the i'm
mediate struggle, which will speed the
revolutionary overthrow of capitalism.
Browder's speech, outlining the ways
and means to carry through this policy
the mistakes to avoid, and the direction in
which to move is call to action for Amer
lean labor, call to organize the ranks of
