National Steel ard
Orders Elections To
Head Off Strike

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. l.
Foreshadowing the coming sharp
struggles in the steel industry, the
National Steel L abor Relations
Board on Monday rendered de-
cision aimed to sidetrack the grow
ing discomfort of the steel workers
and prevent them from striking.
The Steel Board ruled that "elec-
tons should be held in plants OF
the Carnegie Steel Corp, subsidiary
of the U. S. Steel Corporation, I'M
der the Boards supervision.
The United States Steel Corpora
ton has already served notice on
the Steel Board at previous hearings,
that they do not intend to carry
through or abide by even the pre-
lenses of such an election. That
such rulings Of the Steel Labor
Board, though carried through. are
not beneficial to the workers is seen
in such cases as the Weirton and
Houde cases where firing Of union
members and company union dom
ination continues in spite of all
N.R.A. decisions.
The rulings Of the Steel Labor
Board comes after months o. delay.
Over six months ago the Amalga-
mated Association of Iron, Steel and
Tin Workers CA. F. of L. officials
requested the elections. The ruling
is prompted by fear of the growing
rank and file movement in the A. A.,
the rank and file demanding strike
preparations. Since last June, un-
der the Steel Labor Boards regime
the conditions of the steel workers
has grown Worse-the company
unions have grown, the speed-up
has increased, union men are being
fired and blacklisted, and there is
rumor of coming wage cuts.
In view of the growing demand for
struggle on the part of the A. A.
rank and file, the Steel Board issues
this decision in order to once more
take the steel workers minds from
strike preparations, to create new
illusions that they will get some
thing out of such elections or out
of the Steel Labor Board.

.Nazis Decree
Forced Labor
For All Youths

BERLIN, Jan. 1.-The new year
began for Germany with the Of
ficial fascist announcement of the
final military and labor conscrip-
tion of the entire youthful popula-
ton of the country.
Beginning with Jan. /, 1886" the
decree reads, youths under Is years
of age shall be employed by the
administration of all enterprises
only with the consent of the Labor
Office" For the young worker this
is tantamount to being offered the
grim choice of entering either the
regular army or the forced labor
camps.
Thus an employment permit is
granted only to the holder of a
labor pass and the labor pass may
be obtained only by long and
terrible years regime in the labor
camps or in war-training for the
same period. AS result the army
is being besieged by more recruits
than it can handle, it is reported
here. In this way the forces OF
HitleriSm are modifying the toilers
OF Germany into the most regi-
mented war-machines in history.

DRIVE URGED
Chicago LID. Calls for
Big Ca m p al g n
Against Terror

CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-The giant
Scottsboro- Herndon protest meet
ing here on Jan. is expected to
mark mighty forward sweep in
the united front fight for the lives
and freedom of the Scottsboro boys,
reversal of the chain gang verdict
against heroic Angelo Herndon,
and against the increasingly fierce
fascist attacks on the working class
and the Negro people. The meet
ing will be addressed by Herndon
and Jane Newton. white worker
whom a Chicago court attempted to
adiudge insane because she had
married Negro.
The meeting, which will be held
on the South Side, will be preceded
by series of preparatory rallies
throughout Chicago. In calling
these meetings, the Chicago district
of the International Labor Defense
warns of the growing fascist reac-
ton in Chicago: in particular, the
attacks led by the Hearst press on
the Chicago Workers School; the
melting by the Hearst press of an
American Legion march called for
Jan, 4 against the Reds; the
chauvinist attacks by Chicago land
lords and courts on the Negro
masses, expressed particularly in
the attempt to evict Herbert New
ton, Negro Communist leader, from
SIS Oakwood Boulevard, and the
attempt to railroad his wife, Jane
Newton, to an insane asylum. 1t
points to the splendid response of
Chicago workers, white and Negro,
to the defense of the Newtons and
the Chicago Workers School, and
calls for the sending of further pro-
tests to the Mayor of Chicago, de-
manding the release of Newton, at
present serving term for partici-
pating in relief demonstration,
and protests to Governor Small and
States Attorney Hall, demanding
the dismissal of the criminal syn
dicalist charges against the Hills
boro defendants, and the repeal of
the Illinois Criminal Syndicalism
Law.
