Daily Worker Moscow Correspondent
MOSCOW, Feb. Is (By Cable) =
The name and description of every
person who enters the Soviet Union
is recorded in the Narkomindel
Peoples Comnlissariat of Foreign
Affairs here in Moscow After a
complete search of these records,
and of those of all other bureaus
where the names of visitors to the
Soviet Union are listed, 1 can state
positively that no person named
Thomas Walker, correspondent or
tourist, has ever been in the Soviet
Union.
Record Crop
People here are somewhat puzzled
at the stupidity of such articles
about starvation in the Ukraine as
published by the Hearst press. The
fact is that 1888 had the best crop
up to that time in the history of
Russia or the Soviet Union, but in
1884, even with the bad weather,
there was better crop, due to the
benefits of collective farm methods.
The Ukrainian peasant is not
worrying about the food supply
next year or this year, but is occu-
pied with plans of building a new
house for himself, or taking CORE
spondence courses, or occupied with
socialist competition with other
kolkhozes for honors such as travel
ing, or the Red Banner. given for
the greatest yield per acre, or the
best cultural conditions.
Now that 1884 showed the way to
get bumper crops, despite drought,
all fears have vanished for the flu
ture.
The average income of the col
Iective farm family for 1884 in

Realty Owners Allowed

Realty owners were allowed to
score an important point yesterday
by officers of the Building Service
Employees Union who agreed to call
no strikes for the duration Of the
conference begun Yesterday before
Judge jeremiah T. Mahoney, chair
man of the New York Regional
Labor Board.
This decision by union leaders
came Just as 10000 building service
workers were prepared, after the
many delays, to tie up the entire
garment and fur district. The gar
ment and fur workers in this dis
trict had announced they would
support the strikers by refusing to
work in scab-run buildings.
Present at. the first session of the
conference, which lasted from 70 $50
to 2:20 in Mahoney's office at 81
Chamber Street, were Mahoney,

of the National Labor Relations
Board; Samuel Lsmport, industrial
member of both the Regional Labor
Board and the Labor Relations
Board; Walter Gordon Merritt

DEPRIVED of the opportunity to
y play one attorney against an
other at the Scottsboro hearing last
week, the Supreme Court resorted
to the most subtle maneuvers to
stem the brilliant offensive launched
against the Southern lynch system
by unified legal defense.
When Justice Van Der Vanter in
terrupted the defense counsel and
stated, TT is not so much whether
Negroes have ever been seen on the
Morgan Count juries, but the point
is whether they have ever been
called for jury services" it was clear
that he was hoping to find a loop
hole in the legal defense through
which the Supreme Court could
reach down and pull the Alabama
lynch tribunals to victory.
Veil Ripped
But the basic International Labor
Defense policy of fighting for the
lives and freedom Of the Scottsboro
boys ripped aside the thin veil of

MOSCOW, Feb. IS by Cable -
Five ghders toved by an airplane
went up at the aerodrome of the
Moscow Aero Club yesterday, in
celebration of the seventeenth an
niversary of the Red Army The
history of aviation knows OF no air
train with such a number of

BLOCK STRIKE STORE STRIKE.
Reeve Chain Employees
Indicate They Will
Join WalkOut

The strike of James Butler chain
store employees took greater effect
yesterday as 100 Of the 125 workers
in the company's warehouse at
Long Island City joined the walk
out, and locals 202 and BOT of
the International Brotherhood of
Transfers declared that no goods
will be hauled from the company's
warehouses to any of the stores.
Fifty-six stores in Westchester
County, and twenty-five in New
Jersey will also be called out.
More than 400 of the TOO workers
in the 300 stores effected by the
strike called Saturday are already
out and the rest are expected out
shortly, the Grocery Chain Store
Executives and Employees Associa-
ton declared.
Pickets on Line
Pickets appeared at most stores
and the store clerks and managers
have spent Sunday visiting custom
ers to appeal to them not patronize
stores employing scabs. Reports in
dictate that the strikers are getting
fine support.
Meanwhile votes of 500 workers
in the Daniel Reeves chain of gro
ceries now being tabulated indicate
that this chain of 622 will be called
on strike possibly tomorrow. Union
officials stated that if strike is
authorized by the members it will
be called Immediately. Samuel Null,
attorney for the union. announced
that he was called to a conference
by the representatives of the Reeves
Company, but from experience in
at least three months Of negotia-
lions with the company little is ex-
pected. The opinion was expressed
that the Reeves Company is ma
neuvering for more time to prepare
scabs.
Reeves Men Eager
The strike vote Of the Reeves
workers followed a special meeting
held jointly with Butler strikers at
Knights of Columbus Hotel, Sunday.
The sentiment showed that the
workers are tired of dragged out
negotiations and are eager to come
out.
The Reeves Company organized
scores of its loyal" managers and
executives to serve as spoilers"
These stood outside the hotel care
fully noting familiar faces. Mean
while an effort was made by few
company agents led by one James
Sheehan to disrupt the meeting.
Sheehan, when permitted to put a
question, asked Martin Kyne, the
local president, What did the COM
pany answer on union recognition
to you and your Jewish lawyer2"
Sheehan Ousted
The workers answe re d him
promptly by throwing him and the
few with him bodily out of the hall
and proceeded to make preparations
for a strike. Sheehan's attempt
was considered a deliberate effort
inspired by the company to create
division among the workers and
the union officials on the basis of
fascist ISLANDERS. Another maneuver
by the company designed to divide
the workers is to issue a statement
that only the clerks belong to the
union, while the managers are
satisfied. This was answered by
the union with a declaration that
90 per cent of the Reeves managers
were already in the union.
The Reeves workers demand 40
hour week; a Is per cent wage in
crease and recognition of the union.
a wide appeal will be made to all
people in the neighborhoods of the
stores not to patronize scab oper-
ated establishments.

Switzerland Fascists
Suffer Setback in Vote
special to the pailr worker,

ZURICH, Feb. IS CBy Cable. -
In national referendum brought
about largely by the Communist
and Socialist Parties of Switzerland
the country yesterday voted in
favor of frightening the term of
military service, but the deciding
margin was so slight that the ad-
ministration, the fascists, and the
reformist trade union leadership
suffered heavy blow.
The total vote against lengthen-
ing Of military cervice was 431 ,902.

margin was less than 5000 votes.

sentiment of the masses against this wage
cutting measure.
Everywhere the demand should be for
the full union wage.
Senators opposing the measure and the
leaders of the American Federation of La
Dor have demanded what they term the
prevailing wage" as distinct from Roose-
velts security wage"
But what is the prevailing wage in most
localities and in most industries?
Nothing more than the miserable wage
that open shop company union employers
have forced upon the workers by intrigue
and terror.
Certainly the prevailing wage" is not
satisfactory wage for the workers It is
against such wages that the strike move
