SPLIT OVER ‘ELECTION BILL Communists _ Expecting Large Gains ROME, Dec. 26.—A split has occur: ed within the fascist! party over the bill introduced by Premier Mussolini calling for a new election in March. -The extreme “right wing” of the fas- cisti, led by M. Bianchi, formerly a member of the socialist party, do not ‘want a new election as they fee! that the extreme fascisti have little chance of being returned to the chamber of deputies, The extremists have called ® convention to take place Sunday, Dec. 28. The opposition has issued a state: ment declaring that Mussolini's elec tion is a move to distract attention from the illegalities which have been fastened on the fascisti. The opposi- tion charges that Mussolini wishes to make the election an excuse for de. elaring general amnesty, which would release the fascists who have been im plicated in murders and other violent activities. The opposition further de- elares that the elections cannot be carried out under the fascist govern ment as the “fascist government and free election are two incompatible terms.” The Communists have issued er statement declaring that the presenta tion of the bill ts a desperate attempt of Mussolini to keep in power, and that the Communists will make large gains in the elections.

The government did not want news of the great demonstration to be sent out over the wires to other countries, When the correspond- ents showed thelr cards to the po- lloe, they were met by a volley of filthy Insults and later on by clubs and rubber sticks. The worst sufferer from this ae sault was a Hungarian correspond- ent for several Scandinavian news Papers. There Is much criticism of the police over this affair, The police head Is a socialist. Open Switch Point Derails Locomotive On Passenger Train GALESBURG, IIL, Dec. 26.—A part ly open switch point was blamed for the derailment of the locomotive of the Galesburg Peoria passenger train on the Burlington train, at Maquon 15 miles from here. No one was bad- ly injured. So far no one knows how the switch point came to be open. The company takes advantage of the heavy snow storm at the time and says that the heavily falling snow held the switch point open a distance, sufficient to throw the locomotive off the rails. If that assumption were true then snow storms are indeed a tragic event in these parts. If snow storms are known to be responsible for such possible danger to life, then the company had better get busy to insure the necessary action of the switch point at such a time. A special train was sent from Peoria to take passengers to that city. 1.85 on are lew glasses, THE DAILY WORKER FIFTY CHILDREN ATROCITIES AGAINST POLISH WORKERS LOSE HOMES IN TENEMENT FIRE Families Lose All When Two Flats Burn (Special to The Dally Worker) NEW YORK, Dec. 26,.—Highty per- sons, including fifty children, were forced into the bitter cold of the Streets by fire which consumed an eight-family and a four-family tene- ment on Railroad Ave., Jersey City. Most of the children were in bed when the fire started at 287 Railroad Avo. and were carried to safety wrapped in blankets, comforters and whatever ar- ticles of clothing could be found, There were half a dozen children in each family. The fire spread to the house at 285 Railroad Ave,, and the four families there were also forced to flee. The residents of the two tenements lost all their belongings. Neighbors are carring for the fifty chfldren, but they are suffering intensely from the cold. Lewis Fails to Poll Even One Vote in Cokesburg, Pa., Local COKEBURG, Pa., Dec, 26.—Local 5071, did not give even one vote to John Lewis in the recent elections. George Voyzey,. progressive candi- date got 83. The entire progressive slate polled the maximum vote leav ing the reactionaries lugging a lone ballot. Lewis did not get even one. The voting for district officers was equally disastrous to the Lewis ma- chine. Fagan, district president, got only one vote to 83 for his opponent W. A. Guiler, Michael J.

C., Dec. 26.—Fifty persons filled the Labor Lyceum, the regular meeting hall of the Workers Party, in this city, at which time Comrade Oliver Carlson delivered the second lecture of the season. That considerable interest is taken in these ectures was obvious from the questions and comments which followed the address. Comrade Carlson traced the develop- ment of mankind from primitive Savagery thru the various stages of slavery and outlined the materialistic causes which were responsibie for the various periods thru which man has lived. The speaker outlined the course which his lectures will take thruout the season and distributed a synopsis of last week’s lecture and a bliblio- graphy which will be useful to the students. That the members are sincerely interested is shown by the fact that every copy of the books ordered the previous week were sold at the meeting.

Workers are murdered by po 22 in public meetings. The present Polish government is ased not on a “democratic” desire of ho masses but continues its existence mly by political persecution and mur. er, Reaction reigns supreme in Burope The capitalist class has everywhere stripped itself of all incumbrances of ‘humanitarianism.” In the newly creat- 2d countries, where the ruling classer feel themselves weakest, the attack of ‘eaction is strongest. Therefore it is significant that the Baltic states and | some of the Balkan countries march at the head of the procession of gov- ernments, trying to preserve their ex: stence by incarceration and murder of their political enemies, In the same! ratio as their enemies grow, the per- | secution grows and the white terror increases. Self-government in al) | these countries is made the farce {i really is, and Autocracy of big capita) operates without disguise.
