Stop the Anti-Union Drive on the Waterfront!

Developments among the workers on the
New York waterfront show clearly that the re-
cent Injunction handed down by Justice Burt
Humphrey of the Supreme Court OF Kings
County is aimed to smash the unions on the
waterfront, and as signal for wholesale wage
cuts. Events following the injunction have fully
borne out the prediction of the Communist
Party as to it's effects.
The injunction ruled that longshoremen
could not refuse to handle scab goods; that
joint action between unions in the same in
dustry is illegal.
Following the injunction, trucking corpora
tions and shippers have been firing union truck
men wholesale Wages have been slashed, in
many cases to half the union scale

tional Brotherhood of Transfers and the In
ternational Longshoremen's Association feel the

Rising Tide of Action by

General Strike

signs Of the growing strike senti-
ment of day in the auto industry.
What are the signs of the growing
strike sentiment of the auto work
ers?
The eighty locals Of the automo-
bile workers in the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor have declared cate
gorically they are opposed to ex-
tension of the present agreement,
signed by William Green and their
national officials on March 25, 1884.
The pressure of the members has
forced Green to announce that the
union has withdrawn from the pact
he himself signed and from the
Auto Labor Board, which he him
self helped create. A conference of
rank and file workers in the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor auto locals
took place in Detroit over the week
end to counterfeit the growing COM
pany union menace and to lay the
basis for strike action.
The Flint City Council of the
auto locals had voted in favor of
a general strike.

The Cleveland auto locals of the
American Federation of Labor union

They are getting behind the rank

Gil of the American Federation of

MOSCOW. Jan q (By Wireless) d.
After thousands of workers and
collective farmers in the Moscow re-
gion had silently passed by the body
of Valerian Kuibyshev, which lay
in state all afternoon in the Hall
Of Columns Of the Moscow Trade
Union House, the great Soviet
leader, who with untiring hands
had worked at his post to the last
minute of his life" was laid to rest
in the walls of the Kremlin.
The impressive funeral packed the
Red Square with sorrowing workers,
each one of whom had felt the
stirring presence of the brilliant
organizer intimately in his own fac
tory. The head of the State Plan
ming Commission, Kuibyshev had
made himself known and beloved
as their best co-worker, co-planner
and fellow-bui of socialism.
The entire Political Bureau of the
Communist Party of the Soviet
Union and the members of the Cen
trail Executive Committee of the
Soviet government, as well as the
best shock brigaders of the Moscow
factories, stood at attention as the
guns Numbered farewell volleys.
The remains of Valerian Kuibyshev
were then sealed in the black and
gold marble of the Kremlin walls.
Members of the Central Executive
Committee of the Soviet Commu-
mist Party spoke the thoughts of the
workers. In the bitter cold of mid
winter, every worker stood heavy
hearted at this almost personal loss
and listened gladly as tribute was
paid to their great comrade in arms.
Joseph Stain, " M. Molotov, K. E.
Voroshilov, M. Kalinin, G. K. Ord

many others spoke of Valerian

of the greatest organizers and lead
ers of socialist construction and

Our Party has suffered an in
expressible loss" a statement issued
by the Central Committee of the
Communist Party today declared.
Death has torn one of the most
prominent leaders, finest comrades
and closest friends from the fight
ing staff of the Party. Valerian
Kuibyshev founght from his earliest
years under the great banner of
Lenin."
With untiring hands he worked
both when the Bolshe-
viks were an underground Party and
at the front in the Civil War. as
well as later in every important
sector of socialist construction. He
gave all his life, all his being to
the cause of the working class, to
the cause of our heroic people"

Six persons are reported to have
died in fire at Greenwood Lake
New York, last night, when a cot
tage burned to the ground in a
region surrounded by huge snow
drifts which prevented rescuers
from saving the house and its oc-
cupants.
The tragedy raised the death toll
due to the snowstorm and bitter

throughout the nation.
In New York suburbs many
streets are so blocked with snow
that fire apparatus and ambulances
will not be able to pass in case of

suburbs are still digging themselves
out of the storm.
In the lower Mississippi valley
serious floods have already taken
the lives of 81 people and made

reported in the Pacific Northwest
which have taken Is lives.
The intense cold has caused
severe suffering for hundreds of
thousands of homeless. with little
effort being made by the author

with insufficient clothing, and often
without shoes, have been the worst
sufferers. Although forecasters

Urges Court to Cite

Contempt
BY Michael Quinn
Especial to the Daily Worker)

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. 81
Judge Dial NJ. Lennon, presiding
at the criminal syndicalism trial of
Is workers here, today took under
an Amusement a demand by the
prosecution to cite the reporters OF
the Daily Worker and Western
Worker for contempt of court. The
prosecution alleged "contemptuous
handling" by the reporters of the
fantastic arguments, re d-baiting
and jury-tampering by the prose-
cution. Judge Lennon at the same
time denied a motion by Leo Gall
agher, International Labor Defense
attorney, to cite the Sacramento
Bee for contempt of court for pub
LEGATION of story, not justified on
the basis of the evidence, of a Red
plot to murder C.C.C. officers.
A motion by Gallagher to sus-
pend the trial until the lynch spirit
worked up by the local press and
associations had sub
sided was denied by Judge Lennon.
Gallagher had protested sharply
against the newspaper campaign,
the attempt to railroad fascist-like
laws through the Legislature, drill
ing in city parks of armed vigil
sntes and the placing of the Sacra-
mento police under military rule.
Gallagher also protested the an
by the court that the
investigation into the charges of
jury-tampering would be dropped.
Testimony in the investigation
had clearly exposed jury-tampering
by the prosecution, such as pack
ing the jury panels with cronies of
the district attorneys staff, and
with ex-policemen, Legion officials
and other snti-working class ele-
ments.

time the bosses continue win their drive against
the unions.
The workers are tired of waiting while union
men are being fired and wages are cut That
is why at local meeting of teamsters Thursday
night decision for strike was taken.
But do the top officials carry out the de-
mands of the rank and file? Do the officials
prepare for united general struggle? No! In
stead they have raised red scare, to split the
ranks of the strikers They declare that strike
action is not sanctioned, and that the reds"
through illegal" action have aroused such senti-
ment. Why do these high officials raise the red
scare2
They have been shouting about the danger
of the Communists taking control Of the water
front ever since the injunction was applied for
In his manner they aimed to confuse the mem
