BROUN TO SPEAK, AND WRITE FOR SACCO, VANZETT! Won’t Go Back to New York World Having quit» his job on the New York World because the editors of that liberal publication objected to his opinions on’ Sacco and Vanzetti, Heywood Broun, columnist and noy- elist, has promised to aid the strug- gle for the freedom of the framed= up workers in his capacities as a speaker and a ‘writer. Both Broun | and his wife, Ruth Hale, volunteered to address meetings arranged by the Sacco-Vanzetti Emergeney Commit- tee. Object to Articles. Broun’s notions about Sacco and Vanzetti differed considerably from those of the World’s editorial writers. Broun believed that Sacco and Van- zetti were framed and he said so. The liberal editors of the World con-} cerned themselves with the “fair name of Massachusetts,” eulogies on| Fuller and his murderous crew, and polite pleas for life imprisénment| for Sacco and Vanzetti “in the name} is in Europe.

Straining» its in-| terpretation of this privilege, The! World allowed Mr. Heywood Broyn| to write two articles'on the Sacco- Vanzetti case, in which he expressed his personal opinion with the utmost} extravagance, i “The World then instructed him, now that he had made his own posi- | tion clear,-‘to select other subjects) for his next articles. Mr. Broun,! however, continued to write on the! Sacco-Vanzetti case. The.

World Has Articles. When asked by a representative of The DAILY WORKER for the re- jected articles, Broun said: “I should like to give you the articles, but they are too tame. Besides, they are in the hands of the New York World.” Broun ‘was a_ fellow-student of John Reed’s at Harvard in 1910. BOOST IN PRICE OF MILK DUE IN. NEXTFOUR WEEKS | New York workers will pay a cent a quart more for their milk within the next four weeks as the result of the action of the Dairyman’s League which has boosted the wholesale price, | it was learned yesterday. With milk already selling at exorbi- | tant prices, fetching as high as 20) eents a quart for Grade A, the new increase will be a severe blow to New York workers, coming as it will in mid-summer. Borden Boost Due. The Dairymen’s League supplies half of the milk sold in the city, sell- ing much of its milk thru the Borden Company. “Increased production costs” was the excuse given by offigers of the League for the price boost. The wholesale price of milk is now $2.95! a hundred pounds for class A milk. * * * Propagandize for Price Raise. BOSTON, Aug. 12,.— New York state as well as New England face an increase in the price-of milk if feed prices maintain their high level, so reported W .A. Schonfelt, of the Federal Agricultural Department, | hired by dairymen and milk producers to propagandize for a boost in the price of milk. If feed prices are maintained, as the present prospects indicate they will be, Mr. Schonfelt stated that New York producers would bid up prices and that the reaction would be that New England producers would do the same. If feed prices are maintained and the producers cut down an acute shortage will result, he added. Milk producing in Maine,, which furnished fourteen per cent of milk for the 1,700,000 population of Great- er Boston, in 1921 has fallen off one half, he stated. Keep Up the Sustaining Fund unions “from Communism” has only drive them forever from the back of the working class ‘movement. * * So far Sigman has been successful | only in sending innocent. workers ‘to prison, to cripple and butcher scores of others and to encourage the bosses in their campaign to smash the unions. Their war cry “save the made it possible for the police, and the black hundred to crush every free expression of opinion from the work. ers. Their conduct has encouraged | Fuller to defy the labor movement of! the entire world; but it also helped | to further prove to the workers what} |sort of a gang this is; and further-} more, the workers have now fully} realized whom, the “Forward” really} represents, Even the weaklings who thru econ-| omic pressure permitted themselves | to be misled into registration have! realized the danger. The bosses have} already cut wages, increased hours, ‘and are in process of reinstalling the piece work system. In reality these workers never supported Sigman. But now they are definitely turning from him and are seeking methods to! re-establish their unions. * * * The Joint Defense and Relief Com- mittee is becoming the refuge of} these workers. Daily they come to} the office to help spread the litera- ture of the defense, tickets for its af- fairs and to enroll as members of the Workers Self Defense which is being | organized to help save the unions. A little more work and energy, and we will succeed in driving from the labor movement this black clique. The leaders of the Joint Boards who have carried on the fight from the begin- ning have cooperated fully with the defense. Knowing this Sigman used injunc- tions, arrests, attacks on workers and other methods to compel the defense to use up-its money resources on law- yers and capitalist courts. In this he was partially successful, but ‘every fresh expenditure and every crisis was met with new thou- sands raised by the army of sympa-) thizers, and to the present every at- tack by Sigman has~been. successfully met and defeated, and the Joint Boards are still vigorously carrying on the fight. rc ‘- * Again we ask the workers to an- swer the call of the defense.

Cumming declared that ‘if pellagra did become rampant in the Mississippi Valley, there would be a heavy toll in lives lost and mill-| ions of dollars in material damage. “The disease is always caused by a faulty diet,” he said, “and research has shown that the addition of fresh milk, eggs and fresh meat to the diet corrects the deficiency.” There have been no provisions by the government to give any relief at all*to the flood sufferers, except in the form of loans to the richer farm-) ers, The poor have absolutely no chance to buy milk, eggs, or fresh beef.

Irish Republican, And Labor Bloc to Oust Government DUBLIN, Aug. 12. — The Irish | Free state government, headed by | President William Cosgrave, rode through the first session of the Dail | Eireann today, but received definite notice that its tenure of office may |terminate at next Tuesday’s session of the Dail. Thomas Johnson, leader {of the Labor Party, announced that at, Tuesday’s session he would move ja vote of no-confidence. Previous to the session it had been generally anticipated that the no-con- fidence motion would be presented at | today’s session, and that the Cosgrave | government would resign immediately, as the opposition coalition, headed by Johnson, commanded a majority of the votes. It was expected Johnson would suc- jceed Cosgrave as president of the ex- ecutive council. President Cosgrave, answering Johnson’s challenge, declared he would |afford facilities for the no-confidence |tnotion at Tuesday’s session. | Cosgrave Defeat Certain. | The defeat of President William Cosgrave’s government party in the | Dail Eireann was virtually made cer- jtain by a decision of the National |League Party, headed by Captain | William Redmond, to vote with the |De Valera Republicans. The decision of Redmond’s party, jwhiech controls seven votes, was reached at a meeting held today. prior to the opening of the Dail. ti | | | AMALGAMATED FOOD WORKERS Bakern’ Loc, No. 164 Meets ist Saturday in the month at $468 Third Avenue, Bronx, N.
