Story OF 5IT-D0WN
STRIKE AT RELIEF
COMMISSION OFFICE

The sit-in strike has ended at the
offices of the Montana Relief Com
mission at Helena, organized by the
Workers Alliance of Montana. Those
taking part were Butte, Great Falls,
and Helena and delegates. The de-
mands made were for some sort of
minimum standard of living for Hell
ena people and that rent and medi-
cal attention be allowed and other
relief provisions. The reason for the
demonstration was to draw to the
attention of the public and the Mon
tana State Legislature the need for
more adequate relief. The first de-
mand made by the demonstrators
was for work in private industry or
such work as the WPA provides at
union wages and trade union condi-
tons, and an adequate monthly bud
get. For those unable to perform
work, adequate relief provision was
asked. Mr.. Watson, head of the
Montana Relief Commission, granted
a meeting and promised considera-
ton for the demands of the sit-in
strikers. He was asked where the
snow suits for children, and sheep
skin coats for WPA workers had
been sent. His promise was that the
sheep skin coats would be given to
WPA workers and snow suits had
been sent to rural or farming COM
munities. A reasonable time was
allowed to meet the other demands.
A claim was made that relief funds
were tied up to provide fer old age
pensions.
When delegates from Great Falls
and Butte left to go to work they
gave instructions to the Helena AL
lance that unless demands were met
within a reasonable time that an
other "sit-in" may be expected.

HOSIERY WORKERS HIT
MURPHY ACTION

WASHINGTON. II (FP) = Gov.
Frank Murphy's action in using the
Michigan militia as court officers to
enforce a strike breaking injunction
creates a major crisis and is a direct
challenge to the entire labor move
ment," Emil REEVE, president of the
American Federation of Hosiery
Workers, said here.
REEVE added that the entire trade
union movement will be obliged to
consider extraordinary measures to
assist the auto strikers. If the gov
ernor of Michigan is d~esirous OF
establishing industrial peace he
should follow the example set by
the governor of Minnesota and the
governor of South Carolina and close
down the auto plants entirely until
the company is willing to negotiate
a peaceful settlement of the dispute
with its employees"
Protests to the President, as com
mander-in-chief of the army, were
sent by the hosiery workers, meet
ing in convention here. The Presi-
dent was also asked to forbid to the
Michigan national guard use of U. S.
army uniforms and equipment.

Durkin, presiding. Our new secre-
tary, Walter Healy, read off several

Dor and the activities of the Legis-
lature concerning bills in Helena of
interest to the unions.
Pres. Durkin asked the delegates
to report this information back to
their unions.
Business Agent John Mogus and

to Helena which were well received.
Mr.. Cliff Davis, a member of the
Bartenders Union, asked the in
dorsement of the Council for a posi-
ton on the Liquor Board, same was
concurred IN upon motion. Mr.. An
thony Horvath appeared at the meet
ing and asked the Endorsement for a
position of Supt. of the Identification
Bureau at Deer Lodge. Upon mo-
ton same was concurred in. On ac-
count of not being able to attend the
meetings, Mr.. Thomas Barry, the
newly-elected vice president, re-
signed and upon unanimous vote Mr..
Glenn McPhail, a member of the
Hold Carriers Union, was elected and
installed as vice-president.

ton.

STORIES FROM THE
CT. FALLS UNIONS

GREAT FALLS. The Workers
Alliance in Great Falls, which is
the strongest organization of its kind
in the state, sent a resolution to the
central labor body condemning the
proposal to have county commits
sioners act as boards to administer
the social security measures in the
counties. The Assembly approved
the resolution and sent copies to
Governor Ayers, Representatives
Mcleod, Chairman Stortz of the So
cial Security Committee and Home
Whitmore.
A letter of recommendation was
granted to James O'Flynn of Bolton,
Montana, at his request.
A copy of the bylaws and consti-
tuition of the Cascade Trades and
Labor Assembly was sent to Yellow
stone County Trades and Labor AS
sembly.
The Typographical Union in
formed the central labor body that
they had endorsed Edward O'Byrne
for Labor Commissioner and Homer
Whitmore for director of the Ma
tional Emergency Council at Helena.
The endorsements were placed on
record.
Senator O'Day was urged by the
delegates to support the Teachers
Retirement Bill which is known as
House Bill No. "a. The unions of
Great Falls are giving this measure
very active support and are urging
both the House and Senate to pass
this very reasonable request of the
Teachers.
The Workers Education Bureau of
America is in a position to send in
formation and other material on &C.
cupational diseases should they be
desired.
Both Montana Senators and Con-
gressmen have been asked to lend
their assistance in securing amend
ments to the Copeland Bill. This
bill relates to seamen and is what
is known as a continuous discharge
bill. The Maritime Federation of the
Pacific Coast is highly displeased
| with the measure as it now stands
and is asking the union movement
throughout the United States to
bring pressure to bear in the Nation
al Congress to alter some of the OBJ
