The commander of the Dauria- Murphy Post of the American Legion is Charles Di Carlo who is an im- portant figure in local fascist circles. In response to the question of how he could best serve fascism he replied, “In the’ American Legion.” When funeral services were being held fer Carisi and Amorroso, the two fascists killed last Decoration Day, the American Legion participated in the services. Donato Carillo and Ga- logero Greco, anti-fascists are today in jail awaiting trial, charged with the killing. They are being framed- up by the combined forces of the fas- cists, the police and the Tammany Hail politicians. Was Not A Soldier. vhen asked why they participated es for fascists, the legion of- als said because Carisi and Amor- rose were world war veterans. While it is true that Carisi served in the world war, there is no doubt that Amorroso did not. In a signed statement of Amorroso he says that he was born in Italy on February 9th. 1906. That means he was nine year, old at the time of the war! Members of Squadristra. Both Amorroso and Carisi were members of the squadristra, the téi- rorist section of the fascist movement in this country. At their funeral ser- vices held here, the Italian ambassa- dor attended and delivered an’ oration over the bodies. In Rome, Premier Mussolini and all the ministers and fascist deputies stood while Deputy Alfieri called upon the fascisti in America to avenge the deaths, Count Thaon di Revell, chief of the Fascist League of North America, working under the personal direction of Mussolini was in charge of the funeral arrangements. Strike of 5,000 in Window Glass Mills’ PITTSBURGH, Oct. 2.— Produc-} tion of window glass will not go on when the whistle blows tomorrow. The strike of 5,000 cutters and flat- teners has practically paralysed the industry thruout the United States. The chief employer against which the walk-out is directed is the American Window Glass Company, but numer- ous small independent concerns are | also affected. Two unions are work. ing together, the Window Glass Cut-| ters and Flatteners Protective Asso- ciation and the Window Glass Cutters and Flatteners Association. The de- mands are for a return to the old scale (cut ten percent on January first) of 42 cents per single strength 100 foot | box and 47 cents for double strength. The American Window Glass Co. argues that prices are cut to compete with foreign competition. The unions reply that the cut in selling price of glass was slight, and was not so great along the seabord where this competi- tion existed, if at all, as it was inland.
