BRITISH MINE UNION LEADERS TO NEGOTIATE Conference Authorizes National Agreement (Special to The Daily Worker) LONDON, Sept. 7.—The conference of miners’ delegates has given authorization to the executive to “take Necessary steps to submit proposals for setting up a natipnal agreement for the mining industry.” Executive May Compromise. Just what this means seems to be dependent on whether any reserva- tions are made by the executive on Wages and hours. If the executive, which has before shown signs of weak- ness, as in the churchmen’s proposals, should negotiate an agreement, even on a national scale, retreating from the standpoint of sturdy opposition to the longer work day and reduced wages, there is certain revolt ahead from the rank and file, which has voted against compromise on both, Some workers are warning against the influence of the labor party lead ers, the right wing MacDonald-Thomas group, which is doing everything pos- sible to force the miners into a com- promise that can be presented to the Trade Union Congress which opens Monday in the disguise of a “victory.” The Vote, The card vote of the delegates was 557,000 for authorizing negotiations on the basis proposed, to 225,000 against. Of the delegates, voting individually, the vote was won by a majority of 330 out of 2,000. The executive will ar- range a conference without delay, with the government, prior to negotia- tions with the mine owners. see Huge Coal Shipments from Poland Helping Break British Strike MOSCOW, Sept. 2 (By Mail).—The captain of the steamer “Spartacus,” which has just arrived in Leningrad, reports: More than 200 steamers are lying in Danzig harbor loading coal for Great Britain.

DEMISE OF VALENTINO CRACKS CHURCH BOYCOTT EXICO CITY, Aug. 7.—Valen- tino’s death has resulted in a vogue for his old pictures. The Church’s prohibition of moving pic- tures as part of the religious boy- cott against the state has failed to prevent great crowds wherever the sheik is on the screen, The gov- ernment itself is considering pro- hibiting “The Four Horsemen” be- cause of gratuitous insults to Ger mans contained in it. BRITISH TRADE UNION CONGRESS NOW IN SESSION Storm Expected to Put Out Strike Betrayers (Special to The ‘Dally Worker) LONDON, Sept. 7+-When the Trade Union Congress’ méets this week at Bournemouth British labor faces many issues of grave importance. To de- prive the congréss of the right to hear the message of the Russian labor unions, who have’ contributed about $3,000,000 so far to the aid of the striking miners, the British govern- ment has announced''that it will not permit M. Tomsky,: of the Central Council of the Soviet Labor Unions, to land. Stom Expected. The congress, however, is expected to be the stormiest ever held, with the right wing leader, J. H. Thomas, and the apparently united members of the General Council, striving to head off attacks upon them from betraying the general strike in May, and hin- dering effective support of the miners ever since, Observers indicate that a strong fight will be made to replace the Gen- eral Council members with more mili- tant workers who respond to the un- questionable militant rank and file, Right Wing Against: Unity. The right wing, it is certain, will make an effort to break off the bonds of unity between the English and Rus- sian workers, which was set up pre- viously by the Anglo-Russian Trade Union Committee. An avalanche of criticism is prob- ably due to the General Council for its attitude in the Paris conference of the Anglo-Russian committee, where British delegation refused to discuss the question of relief to the British miners, and by putting their pride be- fore their duty demanded that the General Council of the Soviet Labor Unions W™hdraw their public state- ment on the general strike betrayal by the General Council, These and other matters, wherein the strength of the left wing, or Na- tional Minority Movement, is expected to have a telling effect, will make the congress of enormous importance.

COURT, PART OF | LEAGUE SHOWN BY DISCUSSION Powers Chew Over UU, 8. Reservations (Special to The Daily Worker) GENEVA, Sept. 7.—The fifth reser- vation, proposed by the United States as a condition to its entry to the world court, proved a difficult pill to swallow for the representatives of 37 powers, signatory to the world court, in Conference here to pass upon the American reservations. Wants Boodle, Not Burden. Representatives of France, Belgium and Italy all ‘Attacked tnis reservation, declaring that the United States is seeking a special and privileged posi- tion. “Does America want all of the privileges of a member of the council of the league without having any of the burdens of a member?” queried Sir Cecil Hurst, British delegate. The Belgian delegation suggested that the world court be asked to de- cide whether, unanimity or a majority is required to accept the United States reservations, British Want Obscurlty. Sir Cecil Hurst suggested that it would be better not to ask the court for an opinion on this matter now, but let the question remain obscure for the time being, at the same time giving the United States assurances that it would have all the privileges before the world court that would be given to a member of the league conn cil, no more and no less, “Then we can see what the United States really wants,” said Sir Cecil. “The fifth reservation is the most dif- ficult of many very serious difficulties, but why not let the United States come in on a basis of equality and leave the details to the future?” All Depends on What It Means. “There is a great divergence be- tween the wording of the fifth reser- vation and what Senator Walsh says jit means,” said the Czecho-Slovakian delegate, “If Senator Walsh is right, then the solution might be easier.” M. Fremageot, French delegate, ob- jected to the proposal of Sir Cecil that details be left to the future. “I think it is never wise to leave anything obscure,” he said. Oh, Certainly Not! “The United States has not seen fit to join the league, yet the league is a very potent machine and certainly the United States won’t want to hinder the proper functioning of this ma- chine,” responded Sir Cecil. The discussions were replete with references to the league and continual comparisons were made between the United States’ position and that of a member of the council of the league, which proves that the two institutions are closely linked, $122,000,000 Profits Made by Big Railways During Month of July For 'the month of July the first 78 railway ‘systems of the “Class One” lines report a total net profit of $104,- 850,000, compared with $85,041,000 for the corresponding month last year, an increase of $19,809,000.

Reparation Payments Endanger Production in the Other Nations BERLIN, Sept. 7.—Carl Friedrich von Siemens, chairman of the German railways administrative board, in com- menting on the report of Reparations Commissioner Gilbert, remarks as fol- lows: “In the Dawes agreement Germany’s contention was admitted that she can meet the payments, not in gold, but only in kind; this, in turn, being de- pendent on the readiness of other na- tions to buy German goods. “The extent to which Germany will be able to transfer the heavy demands in the coming years to other coun- tries, depends on the world’s economic development and the readiness of other countries to purchase German goods.” It is noted that of America’s share of the reparations so far paid, 33,000,- 000 marks wag. paid in goods, Spanish Deport Worker from Colony They Want (Special to The Daily Worker) TANGIER, Sept. 7.—The Spanish representative here nearly precipi- tated a general strike by arresting and ordering deported to Spain a member of the Spanish Workers’ Union. The union met at midnight and called out all workers in the cafes. A proces- sion marched to the Kursaal and only by the trickery of the representative, who held the crowd in conversation while the man was shipped aboard a warship, was the deportation accom- plished, Warships of various powers are flocking into the port here.

Baker, secretary of war in Wilson’s cabinet, that the war debts be can- celled. Coolidge, thru his usual “friends” says that loans made in good faith should be repaid, not altogether an original observation, but adds that if the government has any money to give away, it ought to be given to Americans, not to foreigners. Treasury officials sarcastically sug- gest that the only way cancellation can come bout is for the holders of liberty bonds to donate them to the foreign governments, tho they. are held against the United States govern- ment. This government, says the treasury, is merely the trustee for the bondholders, and apparently has no other responsibility toward the bondholders but to act as a collection agency. The bondholders themselves |j must do the cancellation, according to this peculiar idea, They Do Sell Oil Stock, Why Not Shares in God NEW YORK, Sept 7.—If you sur- vive capitalism until after Christmas you will see on all of the bulletin boards and car cards a real modern up-todate selling campaign, the com- modity offered the public being a rath- ed elusive and evanescent stuff call- ed “salvation.” The International Advertising As- sociation, composed of men with fertile brains who make a living selling peo- ple what they don’t want, can’t use, and have a hard time paying for, is setting its members a stunt by guar- anteeing that they will sell religion for three months beginning Dec. 25.

Admit Many Prisoners, In conversation with the delegation the counsel, Mr, Kurnikowski, admit- ted there were many political prison- ers in Polish jails, saying, however, that this was done because they were “a danger to the state.” The chairman of the delegation, George Maurer of the I.

But the consul excused himself by saying he would be busily occupied that day. Shoot Down Workers. B. K. Gebert pointed out to the consul the terrible conditions under which class-war prisoners are held in the jails of Poland and that workers were on more than one occasion shot down in the streets, The consul’s only explanation for this was that “economic conditions are very bad.” Mr. Kurnikowski promised the dele- gation that a resolution of protest they gave him would be handed to the Polish ambassador for forwarding to the Polish government, RUSSIA RUSSIAN WORKERS AND WORKSHOPS IN 1926 By WM, Z.

Roumania emerged from the war in military control of more than twice as much territory ‘as she had when she entered it. Annexations of Bul- garian, Hungarian and Russian lands were made. There is great unrest in all these conquered districts because the Roumanian land system is a relie of feudalism and probably the worst in Europe. Bessarabia, the portion of old Rus- sia now ruled by Roumania, is pat- ticularly mistreated, as the peasants long for the freedom they observe across the border and are continually being dragooned by the large army stationed among them. Italy supports Roumania against Jugo-Slavia and may bargain with her to break the Balkan alliance. On the other hand, some observers expect Italy to guarantee the frontiers of Roumania in such a way she may de- cide that Bessarabia is outside of them, Censorship Hides the Fate of Hankow; Army of Canton Presses on SHANGHAI, Sept. 7.—iAs a despe- rate measure to keep the victorious Cantonese army from capturing Han- kow, famous river port of China, mar- shal Wu Pei-Fu, northern war lord, is reported today to have opened the dykes protecting the city from the Yangtze river.

(By a Cuban Trade Unionist) Yesterday we told of the assassina- tion of Alfredo Lopez, secretary of the Havana Federation of Labor, at the hands of the Machado government, whose fascist regime is engaging in @ campaign of white terror against the labor movement of that island “repub- lic" which has come under the des- potic control of the National City Bank and the Washington govern- ment, represented by General Crow- der of the U. S. army. The present article tells of the growth of fascist white terror in Cuba, Fascism in Cuba began with the re- gime of General Machado, who took Office on the 20th of May, 1925, During the electoral campaign in 1924, Machado promised the Cuban People that if he got elected he would do away with all fraud and would kick out all the old crooks and corrupt politicians who were robbing the peo- ple for many years (this is the same old story of all new aspirants) and that he would construct good high- ways, railroads, schools, etc., and that he would give the people heaven on this earth. The people were tired of the old politicians and hoped in the promises of the new adventurer, and #0 elected Machado in the November elections, Machado Pledged to Wall Street, After Machado was elected and be- fore he took possession of the presi- dency, Machado was called before the Wall Street magnates to be ex- wuined. The Wall Street magnates questioned Machado on several mat- ters pertaining to Wall Street inter- ests in Cuba—such as, what action ho would, take 1m sewieie tne Fogard fo radical activi|mem, t jon and strikes in Cuba, To this Ma- chado's answer was—“No strike will ‘last over 24 hours in Cuba, because I will break them all.” This is taken from Machado’s speech as quoted by the New York press. In view of the satisfactory examination, the Wall Street magnates passed him and placed Machado ‘in ‘Class A, and al- lowed Machado to become president of Cuba, He took office on the 20th of May, 1925, Three months after the 20th of May, Machado and his co-partner of the dictatorship, Zayas Barzan, started their fascist work which Machado had promised to Wall Street. The fascists of Cuba not only kid- nap radicals and labor men, but they shoot and kill their political oppon- ents, The First Victim. The first victim of Cuban fascism was Senor Armando Andres, Armando Andrew, a commander of the Army of the Independence of the Republic, who fought against the Spanish tyranny, an ex-captain of the Havana custom- house, and ex-representative to the congress, a political opponent of Ma- chado, and the editor and founder of the daily paper, “Hl Dia,” was shot at the front door of his house on or about the 15th of July, 1925. Twenty-seven bullets perforated the body of Armando Andres. Right across the street from the house of Armando Andrews, was an empty house. This house had been hired by the government so that it could hide the assassins in it. It was from this house that all the shots came, The ins had an automobile ready to run—which they did, with the protec: tion of thelr co-partners, the police- cee bk le bee The First Repression, The first repression of Cuban fas- cism began in August, 1925, and cul- minated with the destruction of the Factory Union—the most radical un- jon of Havana. It had shop control in all the refreshment and beer factories of Havana and in some match and soap manufacturing plants, as well, This repression began when there was a strike in some of the plants where the union had shop control, At that time, Senor Blanco Herrera, pres- ident of the New Ice Plant, Tropical, and Palatino Beer Co., and Senor Zor- rilla, superintendent of the Interna- tional Beer company, gave a few thousand dollars to the fascist gov- ernment for the destruction of the union, Zayas Barzan, the secretary of the interior, issued an order for the closing of the Factory Union's local and declared that the union was illegal. He issued, also an order for the arrest of 52 of its members (all present and past leaders) and war- rants for 190 deportations of foreign- born members of the organization, Troops and Police Destroy Unions, President Machado appointed a mili- tary supervisor over each plant and the policemen threw a few bombs in different places of the city to intimi- date the workers and to change pub- lic opinion. After a short struggle, by the union against the magnates and the bom’ throwers of the fascist government, the strike was lost and the unfon was destroyed. The order for the 52 arrests was not accomplished because some of the wanted ones Went to Mexico and some others wefe ‘Hidden in some parts of the republic.” Neither were all of the aus o477ied Oy Calne tee F most of them fled and only 60 were deported. The rest of the deporta- tions are still pending. The 12 members arrested, together with Julio Antonio Mella and Alfredo Lopez, were charged with the viola- tion of the explosives law. The two latter ones—Mella and Lopez, as I have already said above, were not members of the union but they got ar- rested and were framed just the same as the rest of the prisoners, The Next Victim. The next victim of Cuban fascism was Enrique Varona, Hnrique Varong has been very active in the labor movement. He helped to organize the railroad workers’ union of the North of Cuba Railroad, of which he became the president later on. In the first part of April, 1925, a strike was call- ed on this railroad (the North of Cu- ba R. R.) and Varona was railroaded to Camguey county jail. Imaginary charges were placed against Varona and six months later Varona was tried on these charges and acquitted by the court of Cama- guey. Varona returned to his home town, Moron, to live in his proletar- jan hut with his dear wife and his be- loved children, but he lived there only three days. On the third night after his release from jail—at ten o'clock, right in front of his wife and chil- dren, with whom he was going to the theater—Varona was shot to death on the streéts of Moron, across the street from the Soldiers’ Barracks. The assarsain fed this time, too, with the suppért of the co-partners of the crime—the policemen and soldiers, ho Next Repression, cism was the destruction of the rail- road brotherhoods of Camaguiey, San- ta Clara and Santiago de Cuba. This organization was a brarch of several locals of the general railroad brother- hoods of Cuba, and embraced all the lines that the Cuban Railroads com- pany owned from Stana Clara to San- tiago, During the first part of 1926, the Cuban Railroad company—an Ameri- can outfit—broke its agreement with the employes and started an open shop drive which the company suc- ceeded in, thru the aid of the fascist government, On April 14, the rail- road workers called a strike on all the lines, stations and shops of the Cuban Railroad company to force the American magnates to comply with their contracts, Soon the fascist government of Cu- ba with all its forces of destruction, went to the front to protect the Amer- ican interets, The honorable Prest- dent General Gerardo Machado, Mor- ales, and the Honorable Secretary of Interior Rogerio Zaya Barzan, started their fascist atrocities against the Cu- ban workers in order to save the in- terests of the no less honorable Amer- ican magnates, who own hundreds of miles of Cuban railroads, thousands of Cuban work But these fascist atrociti surprise the Cuban workers any longer, because we know the relation- ship of the fascist government of Cuba with the American magnates. Their relationship 1s undoubtedly that of master and servant. The honorable Mussolinis of Cuba had put into prac- foo on saa bub. and respect for all the great and good American magnates who allow thous- ands of Cuban workers to work for them, providing they do not belong to a union and keep their mouths shut about such annoying occurrences as the recent open ship drive, A few days after the strike call, the honorable fascists of Cuba appointed —as they always do—military super- visors for all the lines, stations and shops of the Cuban; Railroad. Two hundred men were railroaded to jails and warrants for the arrest of hun- dreds of others have been issued by the honorable secretary of the inter- for. The president of the Brother hood of Camaguey, and the whole exe- cutive committee were thrown into the rotten and lousy jails. Their triends have ben intimidated and even their legal attorney, Dr. Gonzalos del Cristo, was arrested a couple of times, Engineers, conductors, and firemen were taken from their beds at night and placed on the engines, and were made to work by the force and vio- lence of armed soldiers. After @ short, hard struggle the strike was broken by the strikebreaking fascist government of Cuba. The halls of the brotherhood were closed, the union was destroyed, but the interests of the Cuban Railroad company had been saved by the fascist government of been clubbed in this strike by the fascist government of Cuba. Besides the many workers who ha’ been clubbed in this strike by the agents of the fascist government, which cases are too many to describe here, an American citizen was killed after the strike. This was Thomas Grant who was an engineer in the Cul 4 company where he worked for many years. Thomag Grant, due to his many years of reste dence in Cuba, became familiar with the Spanish language and the ratiroad workers appreciated him very much, and made him their leader, The Murder of Thomas Grant, As the fascist government always tq selecting the leaders to be their vio” tims, they selected Thomas Grant, too. And 60 the American Thomas Grant, when he was coming off the train in Ciego de Avila, a small country town, on the 15th of July, 1926, was shot to death and fell like & hog in the slaughter house, Were Thomas Grant an American citizen of the exploiting class, the Washington government soon would raise hell about it, and no doubt the. Washington government would send a few notes to the fascist government of. Cuba, and even probably collect an in- demnity from the fascist government, But because of the fact that Thomas Grant was an American citizen of the working class, the Washington gov- ernment will remain indifferent and silent. The Mussolini of the Antilles, The dictatorship of Machado is worse than the dictatorship of Musso- lini in Italy or of Primo de Rivera in Spain. Its atrocities do not fall short of those committed by other dictators: across the Atlantic Ocean. Their strikebreaking agencies are as well organized as those of Mussolini of Italy, Primo de Rivera in Spain, and . William J.
