STEEL WORKERS INDIGNANT AT TIGE1ES EXPULSION POLICIES
Group Raises $1,000
To Aid Textile Struggles
Maintains 3 Full Time
Rank and File Organ
izers i'm South

The Committee to Support
Southern Textile Organization at
West 29th Street, has sent 1000
for maintenance of rank and file
textile organizers in the South,
since its formation in May, 1894,
H. j. Berman, executive secretary,
reported yesterday. The committee
now has a membership of forty,
composed of architects, doctors,
lawyer, teachers, writer's, Office and
research workers.
The rapid development of the
committee, and its accomplishments
since it was formed, Berman stated,
gives further evidence of the grow
ing realization among professionals
that their interests are in common
with the working class. The COM
mittee was formed to aid the rank
and file organizers in the South,
and to publicize working and living
conditions there.
The committee publishes q
monthly Southern Textile Bull
letin" which contains news and
comment of the methods of ex-
ploitation in the South. Among
the contributors are Robert Dunn,
Harold Ward, Myra Page, Lois Mac
Donald, and many others. A re-
search subcommittee which feeds
the bulletin has undertaken such
studies as, textiles and war, the
status of the Negro in the textile
industry, the history of the textile
industry, in the South, and south
ern housing conditions.
Berman reports, that the COM
mittee started in June with COM
mitment of SIP a month, the
amount has now been raised to
S146 month, which is supporting
three full time and one part-time
organizer.
The committees efforts were
taxed to a still greater degree since
the general textile strike. Black
listing, evictions and increased ter
ror must be pubhcised. The cases
of Fred MacMahan serving a SEN
tence on a chain gang, and Of six
Burlington workers convicted on
framed charges of dynamiting are
outstanding examples of the terror
in the South.
On Friday, Feb. IS, the committee
is arranging . Harlem Review and
Dance at Webster Hall, 119 East
18th Street, for the benefit Of its
fund.

Crusaders Seek to Unite
UtobianS and TechnocratS
New Group in California
Also Trying to Enroll
Ex-SOcialists
BY Harold J. Ashe

Los ANGELES, Feb. 8.-Crusad-
ers of the Common Cause is the
latest organization to blossom forth
in southern California.
The avowed purpose of the or
ganization, as explained by DR.. Hor-
ace Lackey, who describes himself as
an interested observer" are to CO.
ordinate the activities of social and
economic groups in southern Cali
fornia and throughout the country
who are seeking a far-reaching and
fundamental change in our economic
structure"
Concretely, the organization is
seeking to corral Utopians, Epics,
Christian Epics, Technocrats, CO.
operatives, Federal Co-operators,
etc. in support of an economic and
definitely political program which
they can all endorse.
I first learned aboust Crusaders of
the Common Cause, due to agitation
of Stanley Rogers, until recently Of
not stilD member of the State Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Socialist
Party Of California. Rogers was try
ing to recruit former Socialist mem
bers into the G. c. G.
Said young Rogers: 81 had to get
out of the Socialist Party when they
passed the new declaration of prin-
ciples It's too radical and I can't
subscribe to it," Rogers is known
for his Communist proclivities:
He is a right-winger even among
right wingers.
Rogers further characterized the
Crusaders of the Common Cause as
purely American" organization,
of Americans seeking a peaceful way
out of the crisis.
DR.. Lackey echoed Rogers views.
! The doctor explained that the or
ganization recognizes that there will
never be unemployment under the
present system, but that they are
friendly to the present national adj
ministration and hope that out Of
"the division of opinion and author
| ity" within the administration and
with the organized help of progress
sive groups" an economic and poll
tical change can come about with
out a revolution
I'VE have many prominent people
in the movement" said Lackey, "but
| at this time we do not want to re-
veal their names, although in many
cases we have their permission to do
so. We do not know that if we re-
veal our membership, the business
/ interests will Immediately bring
pressure to bear on them and the
newspapers will Immediately attack
them and, if possible, hold them up
to ridicule." Thus, the usual hypoc-
risy about persecution Of these
harmless advocates of a new social
order"
/ Although the organization is sup
posed to be for purposes of CO.
ordination, it is seeking membership
"along Utopian lines" and the mem
bership is growing by geometrical
proportions" Lackey said he recog-
nized that there is and would be a
great overlapping Of membership
/ with EpicS, UtopianS, etc.

A stormy discussion developed on
the floor of the Council, when Fred
West. of the window Cleaners Lo-
cal, moved that the Council should
not permit the Labor Clarion, it's
official organ, to print partisan ar
ticles, pointing to an editorial at
lacking the .'ank and file candidates,
and threatening their expulsion.
The motion was seconded from
several parts of the hall, OConnell
launched bitter attack against the
bulletins issued by the rank and
file groups of teamsters, and chauf-
feurs, and other locals. The bulletin
O'Connell referred to called for a
vote against those who betrayed the
general strike.
After the machine stated its po-
Sition, Chairman Vandeleur sud-
denly discovered that mo one had
seconded" the motion and ruled it
out of order.

Security Measures
Cannot Aid Recovery,
John Strachey Says

CHICAGO, FP). = Pre- sid n t
Roosevelt failed to effect recov.-
ery by the MIRA and he will
fail equally to bring it on by his
social security program, declared
John Strachey, English author of
the Coming Struggle for Power to
a capacity Chicago Forum audience.
Under the NRA wages rose 81
per cent but prices rose 96 per
cent, bringing net cut of IL per
cent in real wages, Strachey showed.
Purchasing power through old age
pensions and other social insurance
payments will be SO small and most

the relations between capitalists
and workers and relations between
the capitalist nations are getting
more violent year by year. The
capitalist system is based on vio-
lence, he asserted.

DOckers Seek
ToLinnit Load

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. s.-Boston
longshoremen, in view of the attack
on the waterfront workers in New
York, are preparing to take strong
steps for winning limited load Of
1900 pounds and double overtime
pay for meal hours. A leaf1et has
been issued by the rank and file
action committee calling on the
longshoremen to refuse to work on
meal hours and to begin by forcing
at least a few individual ships to
cut down drastically on the loads.
To date deadlock exists between
the union and the shipowners with
no agreement on conditions reached
because of the unwillingness of the
shipowners to give in on these two
burning demands.

10 Low-Yield Bonds.
BY the Associated Press.

by Lne ASSOCldLeu FIeSs'
NEW YORK, December 4.-Buying
orders continued to come into the
bond market in good volume today.
They were fairly evenly distributed
over the prime investment and sec
ondary groups and provided general
gains during the first half of the
session.
The improvement in values was in
the face of one or two discordant de-
Velopments, including fresh break in
the bonds of st. Louis Southwestern
Railway, on which default of January
! interest was announced after the
close yesterday.
The new wave of selling here caused
q break of 514 points in the Cotton
Belt refunding SIS and losses of 3 to Az
in the first and second As and the SIS
Of 1852.
United States Governments were
steady under moderately active trad
ing. Several of the Treasures edged
up slightly following the good gains
of the previous session. Federal farm
mortgage 314s receded 1892 Of a point
TO 102.15.
Peace talk stiffened support in Ital-
ian obligations, which registered early
gains ranging from 212 to more than
5 points. The widest rise occurred IN
the Public Utility rs, while the Gov
ernment Is added 2. selling at 59l2.
