Heat Put On
Former Poor
To Return
Central Labor Union Leads
Protest Against Extremely
Unusual Action

Organized labor i'm Middle
town is up in arms over the
recent action of the Finance
Board which has ordered
Charity Commissioner Ralph
Wilcox to send letters to all
former relief recipients, ask
ing them to repay the city
money granted them for relief
in their days of financial dis
tress.
As THE UNION TIMES
went to press this week, the
MiddletOwn Central Labor
Union in response to many
letters received by President
Clifton SGOry and the Council
from outraged citizens was
preparing a resolution con-
demning the action of the
Finance Board.
SPONSORED BY JONES
Walter C.. Jones, banker and real
estate agent sponsored the Finance
Boards resolution directing Wilcox
to dun the citizens who were forced
to ask help during the pre-war de-
preston. The resolution was passed
over the objection and sole dis
senting vote of State Representa-
tive Arthur LaBarge, president of
the Textile Workers Union, ALL,
at the Russell Manufacturing Co.
Atty. Leonard o. Ryan is chairman
of the MiddletOwn Finance Board.
A spokesman for organized labor
in MiddletoWn scored the action of
the Board on two counts Cd as an
unwarranted drive against the poor,
many of whom were forced to accept
help only because they were unable
to work on relief projects and be-
cause their relatives were unable to
support them, owing to the depres-
sion; and (2) as an undemocratic
procedure for an appointed board to
issue orders to an elected city COM
missioner.
eve feel" said this spokesman,
that it is highly unhOnOrable to-
attempt to put pressure upon
people who once received charity
to force them to make restitution.
Relief extended to hard pressed
people in difficult times certainly
should not be treated as a bankers
loan subject to cali when times
improve"
At the same meeting of the
Finance Board it sUGs recon-
nended that the mayor of Mid
dIetOsVn be put on a full time
basis and his salary increased to
1000.

Harry Van Arsdale's Con
viction Is Reversed By
Court Of Appeals

ALBANY, N. Y. = Harry Van
Arsdale, business agent of Local 3,
Init. Bro. of Electrical Workers
(AFL), is a free man today. A de-
cisiOn by the Court of Appeals
here unanimously reversed his con-
viction on a charge of melting to
riot during a strike against the
Triangle Conduit & Cable Co. in
1910.
Van Arsdale was found guilty on
one count, after a parade of company
officials, private dicks and scabs had
testified that violence was provoked
by the union. The Appeals Court held
that the evidence had been legally
insufficient to prove his guilt of the
single count upon which he stands
convicted"
Sentenced to prison for from one
to two years under a l47-year-Old
anti-riOting law never before in
voked, Van Arsdale continued at
his union post pending the outcome
of his appeal. Following his con-
viction last year, Local 8 members
held special election to return
Van Arsdale to office as an ex-
preston of their confidence in him.

AS We See 1t
by
THE STAFF

AS REGULAR as a new ses-
sion of Congress rolls round,
an old ''sleeper''-the miscall-
ed ''equal rights amendment
to the Constitution hobs up. 1t
has been before every Con-
gress for % years and this
week made it's appearance on
schedule.
The amendment is backed
by the National WOman's Par
ty, an organization dominated
by weaIthy ,UOmen ,Uith more
money and time than they
know Uhat to do l0ith. They
CLAIM, its object is to establish
complete equality betaOeen the
Se1es, an argument that
sounds reasonable enough un-
til the chip is lifted and the
bug exposed.
The truth is that the amendment
is a sweatshopper's dream. I'm the
past it has been advocated by every
reactiOnary group in the country,
particularly those which labOr-hat-
ing employers dominate.
What the amendment if adopted
would really accomplish would be
to wipe out all Federal and state
laws safeguarding and protecting
women and children from ex-
ploitatiOn.
WOman's Party leaders aduance
the amazing claim that legislation
making it illegal to ,UOrk sOOmen
at night, or at hazardous tasks, or
for Over-IOng hours, or ,Uhich helps
them through the periIs of ma
ternity and keeps their children
in school rather than at work
bench, discriminates against their
ser.
What proponents of the amend
ment actually want is opportunity
for employers to exploit women as
freely as men. That's the whole
story, and no amount of sophisti-
Gated argument can change it.
HAROLD v. FEINMARK, presi.
dent of the N. III. Central Labor
Council, and CHARLES O'NEILL,
president of the N. HI. Industrial
Union Council (C.I.O.), have been
elected to the executive board of
