TH E DAILY'WORKER (ye entrant mnie naman Workers (Communist) Party = Stop! Read!! Give!!! Here’s something that other language fractions of the Party should follow: We have just received from the Jewish language frac- tion in Washington, D. C., $300.00 to KEEP THE DAILY WORKER. This is loyalty to The DAILY WORKER of the finest kind. The Washington comrades have shown that they appreciate the services rendered by The DAILY WORKER to our working class. j Apparently the closeness of the Washington Jewish workers to the White House has inspired them to strike this telling blow for The DAILY WORKER. Can you do as well? Can you do better? Get your language fraction to a meeting and follow the Washington example! W.

M. Wicks, candidate for governor of Pennsyl- vania, speaking every night before large audiences in this industrial hell where Garyism reigns supreme. The campaign in this part of the state opened with an enthusiastic meeting in the North Side Carnegie night Wicks entered the soft coal region to the south of the city, speak- ing at the Miners’ Hall in Coverdale, where a good audience listened to his presentation of the issues of the cam- paign, with particular emphasis upon the problems confronting the miners. He exposed the role of the state as the instrument of terror in the hands of the capitalist class and told the miners that a workers’ government would destroy the infamous state cossack system as it is now constituted. “If a constabulary is needed,” declared Wicks, “we will supply it from the ranks of tried and true fighters for the working class. The capitalist state militia ,will be abolished and, in its place we will organize a workers’ mil- itia—disarm the capitalists and arm the workers the moment we come into power.” The speaker also dealt with the question of workmen's compéhsation, exposing its fake application by cap- |italist agents; severely attacked child labor in the state, and dealt with the crisis in coal mining, proving that only |the Communists have a practical solu- | tion, Invades Steel Town. The following day he invaded the town of Ambridge (so named because |it is the realm of the American Bridge | corporation, a part of the United States Steel combine).

The followingg Klan King frofiCell May Blast Robinson’s Race for YU; > Senate WASHINGTON, Oct) 18, — Demo- cratic accounts of the “inside story” of the klan scandal in Indiana, as transmitted to campaign directors in Washington, are to the effect that D, C. Stevenson, former grand dragon, is going to reveal the whole picture of his super-government of the state when he ruled 400,000 klansmen in their raid on political power in 1924. In his cell in the state penitentiary* where he is serving a life sentence for the murder of Madge Oberholtzer, a | schoolteacher, Stevenson has become jembittered toward Goverpor Ed Jack- | son for not pardoning ohn Jackson was one of his many pawns who did not repudiate Stevenson when the re- volting details of his treatment of Miss Oberholtzer wefe proven in court, The democrats say that because Jackson failed to “comé thru” with a pardon for his boss, Stevenson has de- cided to bring retributibn on Jackson and all of his associates’ by confes- sion. a In the Jackson machine one of the conspicuous figures was and is Sena- tor Robinson. Jackson appointed him as senator when Senator Ralston died. He is now seeking re-election. The democrats believe that‘Jackson can- not prevent Stevenson from telling his story before election day, to the de- struction of Robinson’s ‘chances of coming back to Washington, WATSON BRANDS TRIBUNE LIAR IN KLAN PROBE Denies He Will Oppose | Investigation Senator James E. Watson of In- diana has denied published state- ments that,he would oppose an in- vestigation of the Indiana klan scan- dal by Senator Reed’s political slush fund investigating committee. Tribune is Liar. An article was prominently display- ed in the Chicago Tribune declaring that Watson would oppose such an in- bbieespercsies Watson, in a formal state- ment, branded the Tribune story as whole- a falsehood made up of the cloth. “IT have made no such statement to any one at any time,” Watson stated. |“Nor did I direct eny person to make jany such ste’ « for me. Insofar as I am concerned Senator Reed’s IRONWOOD MINE- WAS KNOWN 10 BE DANGEROUS Company Power Pre- vents Investigation ASHLAND, Wis., Oct. 18.—A sworn Statement signed by a committee of seven of the miners who were en- tombed in the Pabst mine at Iron- wood, Mich., for more than five days, was filed with a notary public here charging that the G shaft of the mine was known to have been in a danger- ous condition when the workers were sent into it. Pressure Against Probe. The miners declared in the state- ment that they feel an effort has been made to prevent an investigation into the cave-in, the company realizing its criminal liability in the disaster. The statement, which was sworn to in the offices of the Daily Press here, which has urged an investigation, fol- lows: “To Whom It May Concern: “We, the undersigned who were en- tombed in the recent cave-in of the G shaft Pabst mine of the Oliver Iron Mining Co., and representing the rest of the miners who were entombed, ask the opportunity to testify*to the fact that the G shaft was in danger- ous condition previous to the cave-in and was generally known by the men working in it not to be safe. “We feel that an effort has been made to smother any investigation of this accident, and we commend the Ashland Daily Press for its efforts to bring about a federal or other in- quiry into the disaster. “We are miners, dumpers, shaft re- pairmen, who have been employed in the G shaft for periods ranging from a few months up to fifteen years.” Fear Violence. Names of the signers are being with- held to prevent possible violence against them by company agents, it is announced. They represent, however, practically all of the entombed min- ers. ey Senator Couzens of Michigan has been asked to use his influence toward an investigation, also by A. J. Noll, U. S. meat inspector, who had a rela- tive entombed in the mine, Noll wrote: “It appears to be the shame of Michigan that all interests here, business, professional, civic and social, have not the initiative to de- mand a proper investigation of the cave-in. . . . Will Michigan be satis- fied to let this go down in history an unsolved mystery because there appar- ently exists within her powers so By Upton Sinclair As for the Angel City “Evening Booster” and “Evening Howler” and ‘Evening Roarer,” the situation confronting thems was this: if they could. connect the Bolshevik conspiracy in Southern Pacific University with the bomb explosion in Wall Street, they would have séveral hundred dollars’ additional sales; while if they failed to make the connection, they would lose this amount to some more clever rival.” This being the case, it took the “Evening Howler” about one hour to remember that “The Investigator” had featured Harry Seager, and to ascertain from the agents of the American Defense League that at a recent mass meeting this Seager had fiercely denounced the firm of Morgan and Company, and predicted a dire fate for them. So, in its third edition, on the streets about one o‘clock, the “Evening Howler” told the world: BOMB FORETOLD BY RED AID Police Seek Soviet Agent Here That was taking a chance, ds the headline writer of the “Evening Howler’ would have admitted with a grin; but he knew his business, and sure enough, before the day was by, 4 war veteran came into the editorial office with confirmation. Two days ago he had ridden on a publie-stage with Harry Seager, and had got into conversation and heard the sentence: “You mark my words and watch the papers, within three days you will read that the House of Morgan has paid for its crimes in this war.” It is only fair to the shell-shocked soldier to add that he may. have been sincere in his statement, for it happened that the two men in their conversation had touched upon the Polish invasion of Russia, then at its height, and Seager had uttered the sen- tence, ‘““You mark my words and watch the papers, within three days you will read that the Poles are back of where they are now.” Prior to this incident, the office door of the Seager Business College had been chewed to a ragged edge’ by the chisels of detec- tives and other patriots breaking their way in at night; but! on: the night after this “bomb expose” they used an axe, and when} Seager arrived in the morning he found every desk-drawer in the’ place not merely his own, but the students’, dumped onto the: floor, and trampled beneath the hob-nailed boots of patriotism, H They had carted off, not merely Seager’s notes for his orations,) but likewise the typewriting exercises of his students—and most| damaging evidence they afforded, too, for Seager did not make his students write, “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog,”—no, siree, he gave them revolutionary propaganda that would send shivers down the spine of any patriot: “All men are created free and equal,” or, more desperate yet, “Give me lib- erty or give me death!” . : i 6 . Not many in Southern Pacific University seriously believed that their “student reds’ had any responsibility for, or even guilty knowledge of the Wall Street bomb explosion. But they knew that these silly fools had been misled: by sinister men who quite possibiy did have part in the plot, or anyhow were bad committee is welcome to Indiana to great that justice becomes a mockery make any investigation “it sees fit, Jand triéth a lost virtue?

You had Ukrainian Branch, Wheeling sjouu $7.00ik, » enough to have it. Also they knew that the fools had got the university in for a lot of hideous publicity." So the fools’ were ° badgered and browbeaten on every hand; they were summoned to the Dean’s office one by one and there racked and cross-ques» tioned—and not merely by President Cowper and Dean Squirge, but by various stern gentlemen representing the district attorney and the city prosecutor and the federal secret service and the patriotic newspapers and the defense societies and the informa- tion service of the once-upon-a-time ambassador of a no-longer- existing Russian government. When Bunny Ross realized that this was happening, there was another explosion. Being a rich man’s son, he was accus- tomed to having his rights, and more. So of the first of his Liemagrecn og he demanded, “Who are you, and what brings you! into this?” “Now, Ross,” said Dean Squirge, “if there are evil men threatening our country’s welfare, you certainly do not wish to protect them.” “It depends on what you mean by evil,” retorted Bunny, “If you mean men who are trying to tell the truth, I wish to protect them all I can.” “All we want to know is, what you know about a man called Paul Watkins.” So there it was; either Bunny must submit to being cross- questioned by detectives, or else he must have everybody decide that he was hiding some dark secrets about Paul. Said he: “Paul Watkins is my best friend. I have known him for seven or eight years. He is the straightest man I have ever known, bar none. He has come home sick, after a year and a half in the army in Siberia. He could claim an allowance from the government if he wasn’t too proud. What he did to me was to tell me what he saw with his own eyes, and I believe every word of it, And I am, going to tell it to other people, inside the university or out, and no one is going to stop me.” So that was that, and Bunny was excuséd for the present. They would tackle the less wealthy conspirators—beginning with Peter Nagle, most guilty of all, because his name had appeared on the paper as editor. Peter was commanded forthwith to recant his impoliteness to God, and he swore by God that he wouldn't; 8o the “Evening Howler” carried a two-column head: Student Red Let Out And Peter grinned and said for the rest of the bunch not to worry, he was going into the plumbing business and get his revenge on society; and when he had made some money he would publish a* paper of his own and kid the life out of God every week. And then came the turn of Rachel Menzies, She had been warned by Bunny as to the secret agents, and had promised to give them a piece of her mind; but they had a way to break her nerve. Just what had been her father’s share in this conspiracy? They had ascertained that Papa Menzies had been born in Poland, and under the new deportation laws it didn’t matter what you believed or what you had done, they could cancel your naturali- and grab you and ship you away, leaving your no trial, and no recourse of any sort. And furthermore, if a man was dumped into Poland with the red tag on him these days, no trial was held — questions were asked—he was stood against a wall and So there was Rachel, bursting into tears before these stran- gers and declaring that her father was a Socialist and not a Com- munist—as if that meant anything to any patriot! Hadn't the Socialists been opposing the war right along? And wasn’t it a fact that the country had an attorney-general who was intriguing ~ to get the nomination for president at the next Democratic con- vention, and was basing his claim to that. distinction upon his valiant campaign to put down the red menace? : (To be continue dy i eae
