It has been my misfortune (or for- tune) not to be able to slave without a struggle, so that most of the time I find myself looking for a job. would like very much to relate of my adventures. in job hunt- r they are worth while relating ' benefit of others who will find ‘insstelaie in the same circumstances as myself. But I will leave this for some other time because I believe the conditions in some of the shops I have worked in are:of a greater significance now, on account of the unity movement among: the shoe unions. Factory Experience. In 1917 while hunting for a job, I happened to fall in a shoe factory as a trimming cutter, at that time when labor was at a premium, when work: ers everywhere were getting compara. tively good wages, I used to make an average of $12 to $15 a week. Not being able to support myself with that meager earnings I had to quit. Drifting from one place to the other, and after hunting for a job for the last 16 months I was compelled to beg for a job in the same factory. What are the conditions in this factory now? Hours—Morning -7:46 a.m. to 12. Then 12:45 to 5:45 p. m. Saturday 7:45 a. m. to 1 p. m. Piecework System. The majority of the workers in this factory work piecework; the time workers, except the foreman, get an average of $15.00 a week. for 51% hours a week. Pieceworkers vary for list clase from $15.00 to $35.00 working at top speed; trimmers of 2nd olass, $15.00 to $20 a week under the same condi- tions. Besides all this the workers are re- sponsible for any lossgof stock or for any damage. I happened to be one of those to be charged for cutting two pairs of shoes over measure in about 1,000 (the shoes were used just the same.) No Organization. It is the firm of Jacob & Sons of Bt As far as I learn. there never any attempt to organize ‘nits factory, which employs from 300 to 400 workers. The sentiment among the workers is very rebellious, if anybody happens|_ to work a little faster and make a few dollars more, down go the prices and all the rest suffer.

I wonder how long will all these slaves stand for this kind of condi- tions in this land of plenty! lI am watching and expecting with eagerness the time when the shoe un- ions will accomplish unity, and when they will start a genuine campaign to organize this hell hole. The DAILY WORKER, the Freiheit and Il Lavoratore were introduced by me in this place. Unfortunately, I am looking for work again and I can’t continue the work I started.

Unemployment Rife in Illinois Mines; Miners Form Councils From a Rank and File Miner T. U. E. L. section DAILY WORK- ER:— Dear Comrade:— I am a miner and not a writer. Still I feel that something is going to hap pen soon. It must happen. We can- not go along much longer with this starvation situation forever. The rank and file are surely muttering and dis- content is rampant and the workers are more and more turning to the Workers Party and the T. U. E.

M. W. of A. in Nova Scotia, Canada, the Lewis ma- chine steerers received the drubbing of their liyes, and a complete left jwing slate was elected. The British Empire Steel corporation, not being able to use the present executive board as they did John L. Lewis and company, have applied to the Cana- dian government for a “conciliation” board in order to put over another wage cut. The following are extracts from a statement issued by the ex- ecutive board of District 26, U. M. W. of A.: “We find ourselves in the position rhere we are permitted by the com- any to deal with no item in regard 0 coal costs other than the wages of ‘he members of our union. In looking »ver these, for instance, for the past year we find that an appalling number of our members have drawn, in ac tual money,-less than one-half of the wage necessary to maintain a decent standard of living as set out in the Labor Gazette. “We have refused to take a cut in our wages, and a conciliation board has been applied for by the corpora- tion to assist in bringing that cut upon us. “Eventually we will be confronted with the batons of. the provincial po- lice and the bayonets of the Canadian Garment Workers _ of Montreal and Toronto Strike Four thousand cloak, suit and shirt workers of Montreal and Toronto, Canada, affiliated with the I. L. G. W. U,, have declared a general strike. The cause of the strike is the en- croachment of the employers on stand- ards of work which have been reduced to an unbearable limit. The demand of the strikers is the re-establishment of the 44-hour week, a union agreement, establishment of a joint board of sanitary control. It is reported that many of the larger shops have signed individual agree- ments. militia as the final reason for us to accept a cut. “The country at large knows that this British Empire Steel corporation was conceived in iniquity and brought forth in deceit. Its pap was watered stock and puffed inventories, and it suckled heartily. Its president speaks for himself as do some of its directors. Today it is in its sturdy adolescence of turpidits and injustice. .Its assault on our wages comes with annual monotony, and will continue until we are starved below the point of sub- sistance. “This country knows these things and yet, to our amazement, we see the country give judgment against us, and the government of our country send bayonets and bombs to fix our wage schedules. Conciliation boards have never resulted in a fair and im- partial investigation of the matters which underlie our difficulties with this corporation. We are hopeless of the present board being an exception in that regard.” NOVA SCOTIA MINERS VOTE STRONG FOR LEFT WINGERS As a sample of what the Canadian miners think of John L.

Every Sunday evening a large conference takes place at 545 9th St., working on the problem of unemployment, which is a very serious question in Alameda county. Plans are being carried out to initiate the calling of a conference ‘with the unemployed. by locals of the Building Trades. A special committee, Buck of the Lathers, Dart of the Building Laborers, Rutz and McCrary of the Carpenters, Karpoff of Machinists, and Paralta of Tailors, are working with Comrade Bloor in making a survey of the ac- tual situation and getting resolutions through the unions to call the confer- ence on unemployed within the next two weeks. This Is Really Unity A united front on the Sacco-Vanzetti case has been formed in a very sub- stantial manner. One large meeting was held at which appeared three delegates elected by the Building Trade Council, three sent by Carpen- ters Local 36, three by the Laborers, also delegates from Carpenters Union Local 1167, and from the T. U. E. L. of Oakland, and San Francisco, local 460 of the I. W. W., 330 of the L. W. W., Workers Party of Alameda county and San Francisco, and three Italian organizations. The secretary of the United Front Conference, Comrade Bloor, was in- structed to send resolutions for adop- tion to every local union in the Bay District. This has been done. The Building Trades Council of Alameda County adopted it, also other local unions. A collection of $66 was sent to the Sacco-Vanzetti Committee.

U. for over a year by the Sigman- Peristein-Forward alliance has strengthened instead of weakened the T. U. E. L. in that organization. The left wing is again in control of dress makers’ Local 22 of New York City, and are preparing to wage a stiff fight for the left wing candidates in the coming election in Local 2. The difference between a left wing and a right wing control was shown at the meeting of Local 22, when Zim- merman, leader of the left wing, was elected chairman of the organization | committee and 500 members of the lo- cal were enrolled inte a committee for | the organizing of the industry.

The appeal follows: TO THE BUILDING WORK- ERS OF ALL COUNTRIES! Dear Comrades: The Polish police have carried out a raid on and closed the Polish Building Workers’ Union. This union is one of a number of revo lutionary Ofganizations in the class trade union;movement of Poland. It is affiliated-to-the Polish trade union central, which.is under the leadership of the Polisi socialist party. We woulde¢draw your attention to the behaviour-of the leaders of this central Wut the whole history of our common sister organization in Po- land. What’have they done to sup- port the clagg movement of the build. ing workers? They have done all in their power'4o. endeavor to get rid of the revoluti@hary Building Workers’ Union. They have repeatedly caused the Warsaw’ nch to be closed, it be- ing the est section of this or tanization. Finally, 6 eans of their daily cir “ulated inmg™mndoes and calumnie: they have*; 6a to get the unior closed as They set up e dual class boration organizatior in Cracow. ey limited themselves to falsé pa decisions when the question was*¥aised of amalgamating the Cracow ufiion with the Afl-Polish organization. “Working from behind the scenes, they supported the dual organization, thereby violating the decisions ma@é by the congress of Polish class pnions, and supporting it against the revolutionary union of the Building Workers of Poland. They did this with the secret aim of preparing a forgery, utilizing their connection wifh the intelligence de- partment and the police for this pur- pose. They think they will be able to replace the dissolved revolutionary union by the reformist Cracow assoc- lation which is more to their liking. Here, comrades, we have an ex- ample of the “democratic struggle” with your ideological opponent car- ried out according to methods borrow- ed from the secret service depart- ment, the instrument of oppression suppressing all vital thot in the Polish labor movement, The P. S. P. leaders in the central commission of Polish trade unions have shown themselves worthy hirelings of their masters, the capitalists, and wpholders of the gZov- ernment’s political system. While energetically protesting against this attempt to abolish our Polish sister organization, we cal! upon you, comfades, to show solidar- ity with the Red Building Workers of Poland, we cail upon you to link up your forces in'a single militant front against capital’ and its henchmen. Every country, with the exception of the Union of Soviet Socialist Re- publics, where rule the sickle and hammer, has its own oppressors, its own betrayers of working class inter- ests. Poland’s example will once again be a warning to you. Join up in the united front against capital, against the socialists of all shades.

EASTERN DISTRICT ces | PAINTERS FIGHT OPEN SHOP MOVE IN PHILADELPHIA Bosses Bait Hook with Measly Nickle PHILADELPHIA, Pa.— Dist. Coun- cil No. 21 of the Brotherhcod of Painters, Decorators and Paperhang- ers of America, covering the entire Philadelphia district, is seriously con- sidering the question of a strike dur- ing the coming spring. In order to prevent any decisive ac- ‘ion on the part of the union, the mas- ter painters offered an increase in wages of 5 cents an hour, but insist upon the continuation of the open shop system. A questionnaire regarding the strike was sent out to all members of the district and final action will be taken by the council as soon as the questionnaires are returned by the membership. The following _ state- ment was sent out by the council to- rether with the questionnaire: PHILADELPHIA DISTRICT COUN- Ci. NO. 21 Brotherhood of Painters, Decorators and Paperhangers of America. Philadelphia, January 16, 1926. The report of the conference com- mittee was read at the meeting held on above date. After going over the natter thoughtfully and realizing the attitude assumed by the master paint- ‘rs and our members towards our or- vanization, the committee feels that the first step taken should be the sending out of the following letter ind questionnaire to the membership und recommends the same to the dis- trict council: Dear Sir and Brother: The conference committee of Dis- trict Council No. 21 have taken a careful survey of our craft in the city of Philadelphia and have come to the conclusion that the painters of Phila- Jelphia are not receiving the wages ind conditions that they are justified ‘n receiving.

The master painters up to the pres- ent have not dealt fairly with your committee, and have assumed the position that we have no organization and want to dictate the conditions ‘hat we shall work under. Neverthe- less it was thru the action of the district council and the committee that they granted you a 5-cent in- crease on January 1. Taking everything into considera- tion, we feel that for us to secure some of these conditions it will be necessary for us to take the bull by the horns and force them to recog- nize us. As. the time is growing short and the committee realizes that some action must be taken by April 1, we are compelled to ask for a $5.00 assessment to help finance the listrict council for this contemplated iction. We would recommend that this be the only assessment collected and if we have to strike, that no ben- efits be paid. The committee is sending you a questionnaire, with the thought in mind of getting the true sentiment und information of all the members. We ask of you to read this over care- fully and to answer same and send in to District Council No. 21, Brother- hood of Painters, 1924 Spring Garden street. Don’t disregard this or tieaw it away but answer it, so we may get the true sentiment and information of our membership on this question. eiving the following rates; Is Sledding Hard for Raphael? We’ll Say So! The Philadelphia league is on the job. Some time ago they led the fight in the A. C, W. joint board that de- feated the resolution to send a com- mittee to welcome Abramovich, the Georgian white guardist. Now they report that Local 140 approved the de- cision of the joint board. In order to show that they meant business, Local 140 also elected a com- plete left wing slate. The right wing showed their full strength, coming to the election meeting after a frantic at- tempt to line up the shops. The tes? vote came on the local chairman. B. Nenstein, the left wing candidate, re- ceived 81 votes, to Feldstein’s 52. The’ reactionaries then tried to create a disturbance, failing to do so, they quit the hall in a body. Once more our friends, the yellow socialists, tried to push thru a wel- come for the counter-revolutionary Abramovich, at Local 75, A. Cc. W.. meeting. But the left wingers again were on the job and the motion was defeated by a vote of 15 to 4. Abramo- vich is having some hard sleighing in Philly. LEGION LEADER GETS QUESTIONS HE CAN'T ANSWER Cites F shore to Help Him: They Don’t By A. W. YOUNG. On Feb. 4, at a regular meeting of Local Union 705, U. M. W. of A., O’Fallon, Ill., the commander of the American legion of the state of IIli- nois, Mr. J. J. Bullington, appeared in search of new members for his strike- breaker organization. He started out by saying that the American legion was organized for the purpose of establishing hospitals for disabled soldiers and collecting aid for widows and orphans. He then read some endorsements from those whom he called “labor leaders of whom the capitalist class of this country” is very proud.” The first one was Sam Gompers—a real tool for the masters of wage slaves—the second was John H. Walker—whom the workers think less of than they do of Strikebreaker Coolidge; the next was Frank Farring- ton—who was on the sub-scale com mittee at Jacksonville, Florida, Feb. 19, 1924; and who was instrumental in tying the “open shop” around the necks of the U. M. W.,of A. a After the reading of |the endorse- ments from the worst \enemies the workers have in their labor move- ment, these questions were asked of the commander: Q. In case the American legion was called out by the government to put down a strike, what action would the American legion take? A. If the government called _ the American legion out to put down a strike, we would be called on as Am- erican citizens and not as American legionnaries. Q. In case the government would call on the American legion to put down a strike of the workers as Am. erican citizens, what action would the American legionnaries take? A. Obey our government. Q. Is there any connection be- tween the American legion and the K,. K. K.? A. There has been a few friendly leters exchanged between the two or- ganizations. Then the commander’s attention was called to the raids made on the I. W. W. hall in Centralia, Washine- ton, which resulted in the killing and WORK WITHIN REACTIONARY UNIONS'-LENIN Must Be Done System- atically, He Says By N. LENIN Gompers, Henderson, Jouhaux, Le gien, are without doubt, grateful to left revolutionaries, who, like the ferman “opposition on principle” (save us from such principles!) or the American Industrial Workers of the World, preach withdrawing from the reactionary trade unions, refusing to work within them. Of Course There Are Difficulties There is no doubt but that the op- portunist leaders of the unions will resort to all the dirty tricks of bour- geois diplomacy, invoking the help of the capitalist governments, priests, police, judges, etc, in order to prevent the Communists from penetrating into the trade unions, to force them out of the unions, to make their work with- ing the unions as dangerous as pos- sible, aiding the police to persecute and hunt them down. But we must be able to withstand ill that, to be ready for any and every sacrifice, and even if necessary, to practice trickery, to employ cunning, and to resort to illegal methods, to sometimes even overlook or conceal the truth—all for the sake of pen- etrating into the trade unions, to stay there and by every and all means carry on the work of Communism. Worked In Government Unions Under the Czarist regime, prior to 1915, we had no legal status, but when Zubatov, of the Russian secret police, undertook to organize the “Black Hundred Labor Assemblies” and labor societies for the purpose of trapping fhe revolutionists and combatting them, we dispatched to these meetings and organization, some of our best men, who got in touch with the mass- es and contrived to carry on a camp- aign of agitation within these organ- izations, with the result that we suc- ceeded in turning the masses away from the influence of the Zubatovists. Gompers, Henderson, Jouhaux, Le- gien and Co. are nothing but “Zuba- tovs” who are distinguished from the Russian Zubatov by their modish dress, their cultural polish, and by their more refined and democratically developed technique, in carrying out their infamous policy. Must Be Done Systematically It is certainly much more difficult to accomplish the kind of work carried on in Russia, by the Communists, in the countries of western Europe and America, because the workers are so thoroughly permeated with legalistic, constitutional, bourgeois-democratic prejudices. Nevertheless, this kind of work not only can be done, but must be done, and done systematically. Members of theA.C.W. Expelled from. Union in Rochester, N. Y. In Rochester seven active left wing members of the A. C. W. were. ex- pelled recently for opposing the pol- icy of the officialdom. The agreement, which has been renewed, coupled with the expulsions, have served to height- en the spirit of discontent of the workers with the policies of the offi- cials. This, officially, throws Hill- man’s hat into the expulsion ring. A soft and easy living, close associa- tion with the powers that be, makes class .collaboratprs of many labor officials. The fighting spirf® that made the Amalgamated is dead, officially. It lives, however, in the rank and file, and the needle trades section of the T. U. EB. L. is the expression of that spirit and has developed it to a clear- jailing of I. W. W.’s, and other acts of| has forced the Hillman administration His answer to this’ a similar nature. was that they were individuals and not American legionnaries. His trip to Local Union 705 was a fiasco, and an eye-opener to the work- ing class. At the present time the American legion is seeking an endowment fund of $5,000,000, which will undoubtedly be raised by Wall Street. The legion is the vanguard of capitalism. This‘ $5,000,000 fund would buy tons of am. munition and firearms to put down the rising tide of the workers who pro- duced it.

The DAILY WORKER agent spoke for 20 minutes at the Cement Workers Lo- cal No. 6, showing the need of the unions supporting the only working class daily in the English language. He was given a very good reception. This is one of the best methods of bringing the DAILY WORKER to the workers. The knit goods workers of Phila delphia, although affiliated to the L L. G. W.

At their last meeting a motion was adopted to invite the Young Workers League to help them in their organization drive. The mem- bers of the Y. W. L. are amongst the most active workers in the T. U.

The crowd extended even into the hall and listened there. The topic was “Russian Aristocracy and the Soviet Government”; the speaker, Miss Dorothy Detzer, was employed as a relief worker, by the Society of Friends, in the Volga dis- trict during the famine in that region in 1922. Miss Detzer said that the United States government had recognized the government of the czar, altho it could not possibly have approved of the methods of czardom, and that America should recognize Soviet Russia, re- gardiess of whether or not we approve of that form of government. In speaking of educational affairs in Russia, Miss Detzer described the poster system of teaching the adult population. Another educational method is thru lectures, which deal largely with history and economics. Education is compulsory and includes the adult population. The greatest dif- ficulty is in overcoming the supersti- tions which had been taught the peo- Ple by religionists. —————— . i eee - i: $15,000,000 CATHEDRAL BUILT OUT OF WEALTH STOLEN FROM WORKERS IN GREAT INDUSTRIES By LELAND OLDS (Federated Press Industrial Editor) Wonder what St. John the Divine would feel if he could look now on the cover penne employes working in the city departments were told by the city council that their wages had been cut litus to five litus (one ites ania 26 cents in Amerti- can Recap geen at the city saat hall in protest, calling upon the mayor, John Vileishis, a liberal, and demanding pecs od the reason for the cut in ey told the mayor they could m@t@xist on five litus.

The gal- aries.of the.teachers have been raised from 8 rubles to 24 rubles per month. The perdentage of Tartars in the school personnel is increasing, but not rapidly enough. Agricultural conditions are certain- ly improving in the Tartar Republic. In comparison with last year, the area under seed has increased by 11.5 per cent and now equals 92 per cent of the pre-war sowing area. Next year the pre-war standard will be reached. During the last twelve months the number of horses has increased by 37 per cent, big horned cattle, 71 per cent. The conditions of the peasantry have improved, and this finds its re- flex in the corn market. The trade of the Tartar Republic is extending. The turnover of the ex- change has risen during the year from 17 to 61 million rubles. The share of the co-operatives in the turnover of the exchange has risen since last year from 6 to 17 per cent.
