Page Two OPEN SHOP FIGHT ON IN HISTORIC KANAWHA FIELD 6,000 Miners Strike In West Virginia By TOM TIPPETT (Staff Correspondent of the Fed. Press) CHARLESTON, W. Va., April 14.—| The Kanawha Coal Operators’ Associ-| ation, operating in the Charleston | field of West Virginia, has broken up contract negotiations with District 17, KLAN TRIES TO SHIFT BLAME FOR LILLY SHOOTING; 40 ARRESTS MADE JOHNSTOWN, Pa., April 14.—The arrests growing out of the fatal dis- orders last Saturday at Lilly when members of the Ku Klux Klan shot down and killed several men, were increased to 40 today. The Klan is trying to shift the blame of the rioting onto the citizens of Lilly and 13 residents of, the mining town have been incarcerated in the Cambria County Jail. TH (Continued from Page One) Fourteen more strikers were arrest- ed yesterday and hailed before Judge | Sullivan, who seems to enjoy the} work of sentencing working girls to jail so much that he has not yet started on his long heralded vacation.

The | difference in the two rates of pay | amount to ‘about $1.50 per day in the wages of the mine workers. This new strike involves 6,000 men. | The operators, for the present, an- nounce they will make no attempt to open their mines, claiming there is no market for their coal at any price. The mines affected have worked very little for the past seven months. The 1917 scale is being paid in the non- union mines here and in nearby com- peting minés, with .ower rates in some cases. The other two operators’ associa- tions that make up District 17 have signed a three-year contract with the miners that renews the expiring agreement as to wages in accordance with the Jacksonville, ‘pact. Alto- gether there are now approximately 28,000 union miners in this district. With au of District 29 gone open shop, District 17 is the only United Mine Workers of America organiza- tion in the state at present. The north West Virginia operators’ association employs 17,000 union miners, A sim- flar contract is in force with the Mo- nongahela group for over 4,000 men. ‘The only union shop operators that refuse to sign are in the Kanawha as- sociation in the Charleston field. The miners’ district office is in Charles- ton and has done business with this sephine Leone. Two more picketers arrested yesterday, Rose Samuels and Carry Peck, come before Judge Foell today. Judge Foell is due for a busy day today. Close to forty picketers are to be tried in his court. It is predicted that the session will be a lively one as the illegality of the injunction will probably be gone into by the lawyers for the union. Anything to Suit Bosses. Circumstantial evidence that the employers of the garment strikers are directing the arrests for picketing, has piled up as the strike continues. It is now apparent that the police and sheriffs are making ene arrests to suit the best convenience of the boss- es. And the bosses are trying—un- successfully—to stop the picketing by having severe sentences imposed. A good example of the fact that the courts are being used as strike- breaking institutions, that the employ- ers have the courts under their thumb and give orders to the minions of the law, was unearthed by the DAILY WORKER. Several weeks ago the police court of Judge Samuel Trude, in the South Clark Street Station, was filled to overflowing with strikers ar- rested for picketing. But Judge Trude discharged many of the strikers on the ground that the charges against them were unfair. He threw many operators’ group for years. New Workers Party Branch To Give Bunco On April 17 On Thursday evening, April 17th, 8 P. M., the Irving Park English Branch of the Workers Party will give a bunco party at 4021 North Drake ave- nue. This is the first affair arranged by the new Irving Park Branch, and the comrades earnestly hope that all our friends and sympathizers will attend. The proceeds of the affair will be used for the purpose of furthering the work of our movement in this part of the city. An admission charge of fifty cents covers everything, including refresh- ments. Want Government Ships. WASHINGTON.—Chairman O'’Con- nor of the shipping board, grilled for many hours by Represntative Davis of Tennessee and other members of the special house committee probing the board’s ruinous record, admits that the only hope of establishing an American merchant marine lies in di- ‘rect government operation of govern- ment ships.

Suddenly the arrests were all based on the injunction. No more charges of “disorderly conduct” or “resisting an officer” came before Judge Trude. The bosses seemed to realize that they had more willing, docile serv- ants in other quarters who would pro- tect the interests of property against the rights of the workers. Now there are no arrests except those coming before Judge Sullivan and Judge Foell. The bosses know that they can rely on Judge Sullivan to plaster on heavy sentences. The police court “disor- derly conduct” has mysteriously van- ished and all cases come before more servile lackeys. Gompers Does Nothing. The publicity given by officials of the International Ladies’ Garment Workers Union of their announced effort to secure the aid of Samuel Gompers for the garment strikers, has mysteriously wilted. Gompers was in Chicago for a week and in that time nothing was made public as to what he will do for the strikers. Meyer Perlstein stated to the DAILY WORKER yes- terday that he has not asked Gom- pers to make any gesture in support of the strike. When interviewed by the DAILY WORKER, Gompers refused to state his attitude on the strike or what he planned to do in aid of the strikers. Rumors have been flying around that Gompers was to address a mass meet- ing for the strikers. It was printed that officials of the Garment Union were trying to induce Gompers to come to Chicago to exert his influence Halsted St. Federal Employes, Great Northern Joint Council, 1710 Avew, 8:30 p.m. 15th St., Chi- cago H 5 Hod C: 814 W.

It was pointed out that the fact of Gompers’'very pres- ence in Chicago, and his bare state- ment in support of the strike would result in widespread publicity in fa- vor of the strikers. Gompers Like Mummy. But Gompérs was in Chicago over a week and as far as can be learned, he did nothing in sup- port of the garment strikers. Mem- bers of the Committee of Fifteen did not know whether Gompers would speak while in town. No publicity for the strikers has resulted from his visit. He has made no public state- ment to the press indorsing the strike. It is declared he was conferring at the Hotel Morrison on other matters which he deems more important than a mere garment strike. Meyer Perlstein told the DAILY WORKER that so far as he knew, MRS. ROOSEVELT SA YS LIES ABOUT RUSSIA JUST SO MUCH RUBBISH LENINGRAD, April 14—Conditions in Soviet Russia greatly surprised her, Mrs. Roosevelt told press correspondents at Leningrad (Petrograd) ‘when she passed with her son, Mr. Kermit Roosevelt, and also Mr. W. H. Donald, Peking correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, who travelled with the Roosevelt party across Siberia. have been reading about decay and vandalism in. sat eet otw' tebe ¢ | this stuff about Russia is rubbish.” Mrs, Roosevelt remarked that she was greatly delighted with the cultural lite te. re wer Donald wes indi ant at the misinformation and lies d the Soviet Republ by many foreign press h with his own eyes o’by the rapidity of thelr th that the Soviets had beaten a) Gompers had done nothing in any way to aid the strikers and had not been asked to. It seems only fair to the strikers who have just deter- mined to carry on thru the slack season if necessary, that Gompers should be made by the Garment Workers’ Union to show his hand and take some definite step in favor of} the garment strikers. Up In Court Tuesday. Those arrested Friday, and held| for hearing in Judge Foel’s court} Tuesday were: Dora Kravitz, Minnie | Rubinstein, Fannie Schwartz, Fanny Brunstein, Mollie Gruber, Sol Sabath, Yetty Goldman, Becky Loomer, Ester Karl, Mary Pall, Myra Nickels, Min- nie Garshin, Libby Jason and Agnes Malott. Many of the strikers are unable to understand why Meyer Perlstein and the union officials allow the relatives of union men to continue to act as scabs, altho they have been known for weeks. One union man who is close to the union officials and also the “Committee of 15” told the DAILY WORKER, “It's a shame Perl- stein doesn’t get busy and expose the union men who are allowing their relatives to scab.” This unionists’ verdict is, “It would be better for Perlstein to spend a lit- tle money on getting these scabs out of the shop. It is my understanding that the ‘Committee of 15’ has told Perlstein that the Federation of La- bor will help expose the names of the offending union men, and force the scabs out of the shops. But for some reason Perlstein is not acting in the matter. He has refused the offer of co-operation from the ‘Com- mittee of 15’ and is spending all his money on expensive lawyers. It is my firm belief that if Perlstein would get these scabs out of the shop it would have a big effect on the win- ning of the strike. A large propor- tion of the scabs are closely related to union men.” Cannon Talks Tonight On Party Policy To C. C. C. of Chicago James P. Cannon, assistant execu- tive secretary of the Workers Party of America, will speak on “Party Pol- icy” tonight at the meeting the City Central Committee, to be held at the Workers’ Lyceum, 2733 Hirsch boule- vard. Martin Abern, city secretary, an- nounces that this subject will be on the agenda of each meeting of the City Central Committee from now on. It is planned to have some member of the Central Executive Committee of the Workers Party speak on this sub- ject at each, meeting, after which questions and discussion will take place. This new plan is tae result of the decision of the Central Executive Committee to keep the active party workers and thru them the general membership thoroly informed on party policies and tactics. . Danish Socialists Now Have Turn On Political Fightrope WASHINGTON, April 14.— The election to the Danish parliament April 11 resulted in a victory for the Socialist party and the Radical Left party, according to the Danish lega- tion here. The Socialist party elect- ed 55 representatives, gaining seven seats, and the Radical Left elected 20, gaining two seats. As the two parties together elected 75 representatives and the parliament has 149 membefs, the Socialists and tne Radicals have a majority of one. The Left party, which was the gov- ernment party, elected only 44 mem- bers, compared to 52 in the election of 1920. The Conservative party gained one seat and now has 28, The German Slesvig party made no gain but re-elected their former represen- tative. Out Again; In Again.

The Klan pretends to hate the Jews, the Catholics and the Negroes, but this letter, trying to stop the mouth| of a class conscious worker, is to a| Scotchman, who has never been in) Russia, who was born in Peterhead, | Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The letter is written to W. Spence, who has lived for many years in Canada, now in Chicago. He served for over five years in the Canadian army in France and has a heroic war record. But he took the phrase, “Make the world safe for democracy,” seriously, and since his return to America has been active in organizing the workers to fight for better conditons. Calls Scotchman a Jew. In the face of his Anglo-Saxon birth, and his long war service, those property loving, working class haters —the Klan—had to call the man with a broad Scotch brogue an “ungrateful little Hebrew,” and cook up a ridic- ulous story about his migration from Russia in the steerage, and the change of his name from Spenski to Spence. Comrade Spence says he will go on organizing the workers, that the cheap lies and tricks of the tools of big business—the Klan—will not scare him in the least. gDoes “Konklave 142” of the Klan admit sending this letter, which is full of direct lies and laughable at- tempts at logic? To cite only one example, the Klan letter says: “Our organization is founded on Christian principles.” Then it goes on to de- ride the race from which Jesus sprang, and threatens violence in the name of a religion which has a gold- en rule, and says, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” The letter shows that the Klan is organized for no other purpose than to fight the organized workers, wheth- er they be Scotch, as in this case, or Catholic or Negro. There is only one charge in the letter which is not childishly apparent as a lie, and that is activity in favor of the working class. The Ku Klux Klan, which, by the way, aided the Feedration of La- bor officials to nominate Len Small, is anti-labor and pro-capitalist. Here is the letter: ‘ Take Warning. é . Chicago, Illinois. April 11, 1924. Konklave 142, id Knights of the K. K. K. of Illinois. W. Spence: You have been under investiga- tion by Klansmen members of a lo- cal Klavern who have reported to us that you have consistently villi- fied and minimized the aims and purposes of Klan Kraft. You have, also, to our knowledge, allied your- self with an organization which has as its object the undermining of American ideals and institutions, our glorious heritage from our fore- fathers who fought and bled, that men might be free to enjoy liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Even the Christian Church and its Am- bassadors have nore escaped your slanderous tongue. This is a crime we cannot con- done as our organization is found- ed on Christian principles and an undying faith in the wisdom of the great architect of the Universe. ‘When you left your native Russia with hundreds of your Jewish com- patriots in the steerage Of an Amer- ican bound vessel, you decided for reasons ‘best known to yourself to adopt an Anglo-Saxon name, think- ‘¥hg perhaps, that by so doing you would be better able to cloak your nefarious operations, but you reck- oned without the Klan, which has ten million ears and as many eyes. You deluded no one but yourself, when you left your real name, of Spenski or Spencovitch at the port of embarkation. You thot perhaps, that you would be able under your assumed name to spread your ac- cursed propaganda with a minimum of risk, but your jig is up, you un- grateful little Hebrew. In justice to America, which offers you count- less opportunities to succeed in a legitimate way, and to the Most High, who has guided your foot- steps to this promised land, you should get down on your knees and offer prayer and thankfulness for the many blessings and bounties which you are privileged to enjoy in this wonderful land, We hope and trust that the perusal) of this missive will forever put an end to your slanderous invectives and false doctrines. Should this fail, we should like to acquaint you with / the fact that large numbers of chickens are still being raised in Chicago, and we know a contractor who has an unlimited amount of tar for sale.” The letter is unsigned. ~ PITTSBURGH, PA. DR. RASNICK WHISKEY AND WALL STREET FEAR INTERNAL REVENUE BUREAU PROBE; COOLIDGE HAS BRAND OF FASCISM By LAURENCE TODD, (Federated Press Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, April 14.—Whisky and Wall Street interests are equally appalled at. the proposal that Francis J. Heney, nemesis of grafters and hun- dred-million-dollar crooks, shall direct the senate committee investigation of the internal revenue bureau, one of Secretary Mellon’s units. “Gifford Pinchot recommended the employment of Francis J. Heney, and ‘you all know what that means,” cried Jim Watson of Indiana, in indignant protest on the floor of the senate, Pinchot admits it. “Let us into your confidence; tell us what it does mean!” urged Robin- son of Arkansas, smiling wickedly at| — “It means a sweeping investiga- tion, a destructive investigation, into | the enforcement of the prohibition law,” answered Watson. “And those you know who voted for prohibition knew, and you know today, that it would take years to get a genuine enforcement. Yet the names of Heney and of Pinchot mean that all the muck that can be raked from this whole field will be raked up, and it will keep going until election day.” eee Watson Meat Packers. It is true that Pinchot has been anxious to get the facts.as to non- enforcement by the prohibition unit of the treasury, under Secretary Mel- lon, brought to light. What has hap- pened to many thousands of cases of Mellon Overholt whisky is the sub- ject of whispered rumor and confi- dential report that is not adding to Mellion’s reputation as a pillar | of public order. Heney showed up Jim Watson some years ago as a secret spokes- man for the Chicago meat packers. Mellon, partner in the Overholt dis- tillery, has final charge of the entire enforcement machinery—which has been rotten to the core. Heney is the one investigator in America whose qualities and experience war- rant the prediction that he will show the country why enforcement has been a farce. But even more serious is his in- tention to disclose the reasons for the nation-wide ~ propaganda conspir- acy in favor of the Mellon tax bill. Mellon has failed to disclose his own financial operations as requested by Senator Couzen’s committee. Presi- dent Coolidge, at Mellon's command, has sent an insolent letter to the senate, reversing the position he took when Daugherty appealed to him for protection against the light. Back of Mellon and Coolidge are the banks, which do not want any rummaging among the records in the treasury by a man of Heney’s courage and keen- ness. They have sent down to Wash- ington that hint that a panic in the stock market might result from the announcement that the treasury was to be really investigated in the way the nayal oil leases and the Daugh- erty crookedness was probed. 7 e+ @ Coolidge’s Modified Fascism. A sort of modified fascism, armed with courts prepared for just such a political emergency, is what Coolidge has disclosed in this claim that the administration shall not be further brought to account by corgress and the people. In Montana a Coolidge- picked judge and a hostile district attorney refuse to deliver to Senator Borah’s committee the evidence upon which Senator Wheeler has been in- dicted. In Ohio, a county judge who was formerly Harry Daugherty’s law part- ner, has enjoined Wheeler and Brook- hart from examining the books of Daugherty’s brother’s bank, in which the mysteriously acquired Wright- Martin Aircraft stock and other new wealth of the late attorney general was laid away. And in Washington the president himself stands between Mellon and the senate, defying the authority of these elected ambassadors of the sov- ereign states. The speech of Jim Watson, in which he declared that never with his consent would any in- vestigation of the prohibition unit be carried out, served notice on the country that the rule of law was out of date. Calls Defiance “Ugly.” How ugly is the defiance by Cool- idge and his political crowd of ordi- nary standards of decency in public service was illustrated by the vote of 30 to 45, by which the progressives and democrats managed to keep in the appropriation bill for the tariff commission the clause adopted by the house, which forbids any member of that commission from helping to de- cide a tariff rate on any commodity in which—as instanced by Commission- er Glassie in the sugar rate case—he or any of his family have an invest- ment interest. The old guard, 30 of them, voted that Glassie should con- tinue to fix the tariff on sugar, to his own family’s enrichment, Mussolini could have done it no more brazenly. The whole press gal- lery laughed mockingly at this “party loyalty” vote, House Committee In Another Big Wallop At Immigration Quota WASHINGTON, April 14—A ma- jority of the republican conference to- day voted in favor of a one per cent of the 1910 census quota for the:new immigration law.

Japanese from this country and its territories, the United States would strike at Ja- pan's ambition to possess the Ha- waiian Islands, Chairman Johnson of the House immigration committee de- clared in a statement here today. Johnson said that the gentlemen's agreement with Japan “humiliates this nation.” “Because the immigration bill passed by the House applies to Ha- waii and every part and parcel of the United States,” Johnson said, “it hurts not the pride, but the ambition of Japan.” Ambassador Hanthara, Johnson said, pointed out in his letter that Hawaii is not covered by the “gen- tlemen’s agreement.” “Passage of the anti-Japanese meas- ure by the American House of Repre- sentatives is a most regrettable act in view of the traditional friendship of the Pacific nations,” Baron Sakatani said. “To the United States the question involves a handful of Japanese im- migrants, while to Japan it is a mat- ter of honor and international pres- tige. “We wonder why America is so firmly bent on injuring the feelings of this people who have done nothing to wound American susceptibilities?” Wheeler Charges Daugherty Helped In Montana Frame-up WASHINGTON, April 14.—Informa- tion reaching Senator Wheeler today from Montana convinced him that former Attorney-General Daugherty Played a part in securing his indict- ment at Great Falls, Mont. A confidential report to Wheeler stated that John S. Pratt, a special assistant attorney general, appeared before the grand jury at Great Falls and urged Wheeler's indictment after the first ballot failed to result in an indictment. Several ballots were re- quired to secure the 12 voges necessa- ry to indict, according to the report. Wheeler is understood to have veri- fied the report that Pratt was recent- ly in Montana. He indicated that he would ask Chairman Borah of the committee investigating his indict- ment to call Pratt as a witness to as- certain on whose orders he was sent there.

BILL SEEMS SURE TOPASS SENATE § ! What Will Coolidge Do? Is Vets’ Question " (Special to The Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, April 14.—The bo- nus Dill, providing a twenty-year en- dowment insurance policy for veter- ans, was ordered favorably reported by the senate finance committee today so it can be rushed thru ahead of the tax bill. The bill is practically in the same form as passed by the house. Rushing the Bill. The bonus bill was rushed out with amazing speed after only a brief dis- cussion in committee. Its chief provisions are: Cash payments to veterans who un- der the bil] would receive less than 350. A twenty-year endowment life in- surance policy for other veterans. Payment made on the basis of com- pensation of $19a day for home serv- ice up to $500 and $1.25 a day for overseas service up to $625. A restriction that the first sixty days of service cannot apply on either the cash or endowment plan. All enlisted men, women and offi- cers up to the rank of captain in the army and marine corps and up to lieutenants in the navy, are eligible. Loans on Insurance. An allowance for making loans in the insurance policies after two years up to ninety per cent of the cash value of the policies, The bill will be formally reported to the senate as soon as possible and it is expected to be passed without material change and with little dis- cussion, MORMON SENATOR SAYS 6, 0, P, WILL ACT ON BONUS Wall Street Is Howling For Action WASHINGTON, April 14.—Shoul- dering full responsibility, Republican members of the Senate finance com- mittee today decided to give the bo- nus bill the right of: way over the tax bill in the Senate, ‘Chairman Smoot anouriced the bo- nus would be taken up Wednesday or Thursday and that the tax bill will not be considered until after the bo- nus is disposed of. _ ied This will delay consideration of the tax bill for at least ten days. In order to get action omthe bonus first, the Republican members of -the committee were forced to take all re- sponsibility upon their own shoulders. The Republican conference failed to decide the question earlier in the day and most of the Democratic members of the committee refused to vote. N. Y. Nurs Pay Ri d.
