{ | q yi I [iNSie MINERS a. . T BIG MASS MEET © Back Save - Union Movement to Limit (Special to The DAILY WORKER.) LANSING, 0., (By Mail)—At a meeting held on June 4th in Lansing, the miners showed what real solidarity meant. Fully three hundred and fifty of them packed the hall where only two days before the deposed sub-dis- trict officials, aided by the women- dJailers, sheriff Hardesty and his American Federation of Labor, could not get fifty men in, altho they sent | trucks’ and cars to various parts of the sub-district to transport Lewis men to the meeting. The meeting was opened by Frank Sepich, the new sub-district vice- rasid-nt, who spoke on the need for rank and file to ¢ontrol the union GA its officers. John Barto, one of the local men ‘and glso one of the new trusties, was interrupted thruout his speeeh by ap- ‘plause and it was very soon proved to him that we could hold a meeting , in peace for the Lewis gang did not have nerve enough te come down and k up the meeting. So we did not need sheriffs to protect us. Brother Weber told of the schoo! taining received by the children and pointed out that each child would have a chance to be president if he first became a nationally known strike- r. He told of governor Danahey and his “milk men” who pretect the scabs and his democracy in Ohio by using clubs, jailing women and stary- ing babies. When asked if they were willing to give up now and go back where they were thirty-eight years ago when the uyfon was built, there was a murmur- Ing dissent and not a single man was In favor of doing it. Miners Behind Saye-the-Union, In econelusion, president Bob Matu- sak, of the sub-distriet, spoke. Here more than anywhere else the miners showed that they are all for the Save- the-Union movement. Bob speaks in a convincing tone and has no flowery speeches to make. One amusing incident he teld was as fol- lows, At Duneanwood he and the vice-president were present to hear what the fat boys had to say. There was quite an argument and in the course of it, a man who used to work in a non-union field got up to defend the chairman, who was a reactionary, The chairman, evidently mistaking his intention, said, “You shut up, damn you.. You used to be a seab,” This so enraged the man that. he ”\, finally changed to the Save-the-Union ‘bunch on the other end of the hell and it was yery soon proved to him that we can hold a meeting in peace, A speaker emphasized the differ, i ence between the reactionary officials 4} with their sheriffs and the Save-the- }} Union meeting with so much en- thusiasm. He told of the money that was being used by the reactionaries in taking away the charters and seals while the babies go hungry. He aiso proved that Lewis must break up the ‘on or face: charges of embezzle- in the next conyention, Brother Joe Weber, who is very ae- tive thruout the sub-district, was the next speaker, His opening words were, “f am very’ much disappointed, my good friend and women jailer, Mr. Serdesiy, is not present.” But he was not to be disappointed for altho the sheri’f could not be present the ehief of police of Bridgeport was there, He did not stay~long, however, when he found he was not wanted. At the conclusion of this meeting, this appeal was made: Fight for your kiddies! Give support to your new sub-distriet officers! The way the applause sounded it would take more than a few of John L. Lewis’ scab dollars and more than a few blows on the head from clubs of strikebyeaking county and state of- ficers to change their minds. FIVE NOBILE AIDES HOPELESSLY LOST OSLO, Norway, July 2, (U.P).— Lieut. Einar-Paal Lundborg and five members of the crew of the Polar Dirigible Italia drifted helplessly to- ward death tonight while the agencies of five great nations fought des- perately but futily to save them. Aretic experts were pessimistic re- garding chances for the rescue or of finding the nine other members of the Italia’s crew or the six including Raold Amundsen—who were lost at- tempting to find Nobile Heimer Hansen, companion of Amundsen when he discovered the South Pole, told Peter Freuchen, noted Danish explorer, that he believed mundsen dead, The Latham sea- ‘plane, he said, was able to float only ' ‘about two hours. He believed Amund- sen was forced down in the open sea, the machine turned turtle and the passengers were drowned. Fascist Flight Ml-Planned. Freuchen deplored the mishap to the Nobile expedition, saying its fail- ure likely would hurt the future of Arctic exploration, He also deplored the fact that many of Sweden’s, Nor- way’s, and Russia’s best arctic er- plorevs were risking their lives fo: the crew of the Italia.

NO GLUE YET TO MURPHY SLAYER CHICAGO, July 1. — Gangland has been silent and little progress has heen made in the investigation are urged to of the murder last week of “Big Tim” Murphy, gangster, labor pbe- trayer and recognized “Kine of Raeketeers,” police admitted today. Several men have been questioned and one, John Hand, organizer of a Cleaners’ end Dyers’ erganization in- to which Murphy had attempted to “musele in,” was arrested, but fur- ther than that police have made no headway towards solving the most recent underworld murder. Tland was released under bond of $10,000 Friday and his hearing set for July 6, but the attorney fer the state practically admitted he had lit- tle incriminating evidence to hold the accused on a charge of murder, Murphy was shet and killed by four men who fired a volley of bullets from a eurtained automobile last Tuesday night, 200 BARBERS WIN STRIKE IN NEWARK About 200 of the 500 sttiking jour- neymen harbers of Newark have re- turned to work, after compelling the master barbers to renew the agree- ments with them, The return of nearly half of their number to work marks an important victory for the barbers who went on strike last Monday against the ef- forts of the boss barbers who went on strike last Monday against the ef- forts of the boss barbers to cut wages and lengthen hours. The agreement which the bosses refused to renew calls for wages of $85 a week and 50 per eent of all sums over $50 which | the barbers collect at their chairs during the week. Those men still out on strike are determined to enforce union conditions and are conducting a vigorous organi- zation drive among the non-union shops, Before Start BROACH HAC STEALS ELEC : iz Photo shows the erew of the fascist dirigible, Italia, at Kings Bay, Spitz- per 65 chine were forced to record Houlihan. 1618 were counted for Frank Wilson, president and Broach henchman of the local. san Progressive spokesmen saw reasc for encouragement at the showing | ,; made by their ticket in spite of ad- verse obstacles.
