Bergon Is Ready
Tokegofiofe Now

New York (LPA) = The self
styled "King of Strikebreakers"
Pearl l.. Bergoff, who left a trail
of 81 deaths, including women and
children, in his bloody career Of
scabherding and strikebreaking,
died here last week.
Probably more hated and despis-
ed by organized labor than any
man of his time, Bergoff boasted
he made more than $10,00O,O0O in
leading his armed thugs thru ap-
proximately 300 strikes.
In the 1910 Philadelphia transit
strike where he supplied strike
breakers, 16 men, women and chill
dren were killed. A year before, ac-
cording to his own written account
in 1884, he supplied a 400O-man
army of goons to crush the strike
of workers at the Pressed Steel
Car Corp, McKees Rock, Pa. In
the 49-day running battle, 22 were
killed and ZIG wounded on both
sides. His last major effort, as the
Wagner Act went into effect, came
in 1886 in the violent Remington
Rand strike after which Bergoff
and President j. H. Rand were tried
and acquitted of transporting
strikebreakers across state lines.
His death came at the age Of II.

Building Employment
Gained In July

Washington, D. C. (ILNS) -
Building and construction contrac-
tors employed 1,817,0C0 workers in
July, an increase of $4,000 from
June, the U. S. Bureau Of Labor
Statistics estimated. Employment
exceeded the total of July, 1916, by
10000.
Construction activity, as meas
ured by the value of work put in
place, rose seasonally 7 percent
in July to $1,3O0,0O0,00O, and was
16 percent above July, 1916.
Private expenditures for new
construction and repair work reach
ed an all-time monthly high in
July, amounting to slightly more
than $1,000,0C0,000, which was 6
percent above the previous peak
established in August, 1916. Public
ly financed construction advanced
IL percent over the preceding
month to a total of S289,000,00O.
For the first z months of 1947,
total construction expenditures
amounted to s7,500,000, compared
to $500, 100000 for the CORES
ponding period of last year.

UNIONS NEED COOP
HELP TO INCREASE
PURCHASING POWER

Haverford, Pa. (LPA)-The la
Dor movement needs to improve
the purchasing power of the 15,-
100000 union members and their
families; the consumer cooperative
movement has the know-how. The
two should work together, labor
and coop delegates to the 18th
Annual Cooperative Institute spon-
sored by Eastern Cooperatives Inc,
last week decided.
A part of each day at the week
long conference, held at Haverford
College, was devoted to discussion
of working with labor to build CO.
operatives. Will Allen, Washington
representative of the Int'l Ladies
Garment Workers-AFL, told the
100 officers of co-ops and unions
of the growing interest during the
past three years in labOr-co-op ac-
tivities. He announced that the
AFL will shortly name a national
staff member to work on coop
education and organization. Allen
also told of the coop organizing
work done by such unions as the
United Auto Workers, Rubber
Workers, Textile Workers.
Greatest hazard in setting up
coop stores, pur-
chasing clubs, and other ventures,
has been the tendency to limit
membership to union members, dis
cussion leaders brought out. On the
basis of experience, open member
ship is essential if the store or
other coop is to be on sound
business basis.

Comment On World Events

Plain speaking on the similarity
of two totalitarian systems, Nazism
and Communism, is a feature of
Robert j. Watts "last report" !"
written for American Federationist
aboard the ship on which he died.
The article is on the International
Conference at Geneva, which Watt
attended as workers representative
on the U. S. delegation.
Another feature of the article is
Watts stress on the value of the
international Labor Organization,
of which he was long an eloquent
and forcible champion.
"Many Of those who tried for 8
or a years to waylay and sandbag
the ILO because they believed it
might be an obstacle to the World
Federation Of Trades Unions are
now perhaps aware that the WFTU
needs props very urgently" Watt
says. Somewhat belatedly they
turn toward the ILO. But / trust
that the United States will reso-
lutely refuse to allow the ILO in
any way to be used to sustain a
consistently anti-American and
anti-democratic WFTU."
Americans must realize" Watt
continues, "that a worldwide cam
paign of propaganda, agitation, in
incitement and sabotage
is well under way against demo-
cracy. The same vicious attacks
against the United States or
against Truman, Marshall and Van

Aid To Reeducufe
German Youth In
Democracy Asked

New York, (ILNS).-The Au-
gust Bebel School for the reeduca-
tion of German youth received the
support of the International Solid
arity Committee, New York, which
cabled $500 in CARE cooperative
for American Remittances to Eu-
rope) food packages to take care
of the schools needs for the first
month, Phil Heller, director, ann
ounced.
In letter from Kurt Schmidt,
the founder of the August Bebel
School, which is in the American
Sector of Berlin, the committee
was informed that 2 CARE pack
ages day would supplement the
rations of the 60 students.
"We have since been informed
that Schmidt, a leader of the Soc
ial Democratic Party of Berlin,
died recently at the age of 35,"
Heller said. Schmidt was 20 years
old when Hitler came to power,
and carried on the struggle against
the Nazis in the Underground
movement until 1888 when he was
captured by the Gestapo and i'm
prisoned. He remained in prison
until he was liberated by Allied
troops.
"We Americans have spoken
much about the reeducation of
German youth. Here is a nucleus
of Germans, themselves among the
most severe sufferers of totalitar-
ianism who are asking US for the
physical nourishment to do the job
we all want to see done," Heller
said. 'It would be criminal and
most unrealistic in terms of world
democracy and world peace to let
their appeal go unheeded."
Unified Support Urged
Israel Feinberg, chairman of the
International Solidarity Committee
and vice-president of the Interna-
tional Ladies' Garment Workers.
Union, who recently toured Ger
many as member of the American
Federation of Labor mission, met
with Kurt Schmidt during his tour.
In calling for unified support for
the Bebel School, Feinberg declar-
ed:
"It is indeed fitting that we sup
port the August Bebel School as
memorial to Kurt Schmidt, brave
fighter for freedom. The August
Bebel School to reeducate German
youth, deserves the support of
every American who believes that
a new and Independent Germany
should be founded, based on the
principles of freedom and demo-
cracy."

tional Solidarity Committee, 303

AFL-CIO Winninq
More Toff-Proof
Union Contracts

Chicago LPA) - "Taft-proof'
contracts are being signed by both
AFL and CIO unions thruout the
country in increasing numbers, il
was disclosed here this week in a
survey made by a private research
firm.
The contract clauses vary from
agreement to agreement, it was
found, but essentially they all ex-
empt the union from Taft Hartley
damage suits resulting from wild
cat or unauthorized strikes.
In Detroit, where 1000 members
of the United Auto Workers-CIO
struck to obtain a Taft-proof con-
tract, the UAW signed up three
other firms which agreed to waive
the TIL penalty terms.
The AFL in this city concluded
the first such contract in the area
when the Building Service En-
ployes Int'l Union-AFL concluded
a four weeks strike. The contract,
which did not contain a nO-strike
clause nor provide for arbitration,
specified that the union, its Off
GERS, agents and members shall not
be held liable in any manner what
soeyer for any strike, showdown,
work stoppage or any form of ac-
tion which results in delay, stop
page of work or production, nor
will the union be held liable for
the unauthorized acts or activities
of it's officers, agents or members"
The Intl Ladies Garment Work
ers-AFL reached a similar agree
ment, the first of its kind for
southern California, with the M.
Everett Sportswear Co., of Santa
Ana. Intl Harvester Co., employ
ing $4,000 workers, promised to
waive the TIL penalty provisions
if the UAW and the United Farm
Equipment Workers-CIO pledged
to take reasonable, positive action
to prevent wildcat strikes"
Admittedly the precedent-setting
contract was won by the United
Mine Workers-AFL when the coal
operators agreed that the miners
would work only when willing and
able" The second major break was
Ford's stipulation that it would
bring no suits for a year while
joint labor-management study is
made of union liability.
The spread of these new union
protection contracts infuriated Rep.
Hartley who hurled threats at
companies signing such agreements
in Detroit speech. "Let me serve
notice on employers thruout the
nation" Hartley clustered, "that if
l find, as I've already done, that
they are bypassing the act, Pm
going to invite them to Washing
ton."

Hartley Hollywood
Inquiry Backfires

Los Angeles (LPA)-A special
subcommittee of the House Labor
Committee, headed by Rep. Car
roll Kearns (R., Pa.), turned its at
tention to Hollywood jurisdictional
strikes this week after hearings on
the American Federation of Musi-
cians-AFL backfired.
Almost all that could be salvag-
ed from the AIM hearings was the
opportunity for Rep. Fred Hartley
(R., N. j. to steal the spotlight
from Chairman Kearns by taking
credit for settlement of long dis
pute between the AIM and Earl
Carroll, Hollywood night club op-
orator.
During a 10 minute recess in the
hearings Carroll and union officials
announced that they had SIGNED a
new three year contract which
brought the musicians a $50 week
ly salary hike. Carroll said he no
longer was required to hire three
additional musicians as the union
had demanded but he intended to
do so anyway.
Kearns, who suggested that the
AIM might be guilty of "conspir-
acy in restraint of trade" by join
ing with the movie industry to block
television development, had the rug
pulled out from under him when
representatives of 40 movie produc-
ers testified that far from conspir-
ing with the AIM, the industry OBJ
jected vehemently to union de-
mands that film musical sequences
be banned for television use in con-
tracts with the studios. The union
contract clause stipulated tina. if
film music sequences were used,
union scales should be renegotiated.

for soliciting advertising" One of
the goals of the conference of ed
itors which will convene shortley is
the elimination of "racketeering"
ads from labor papers and the out
lawing of "so-called labor publica-
tions soliciting advertisements,
which are not officially endorsed"
by the state federation or a union.
