Young Negro Gets One Year in Penitentiary for Stealing 4 Hams CHICAGO, "I., Dec. 18.—George Corey, a young Negro, who stole four hams from Swift and Company on April 7 because he was starving, received a one-year sentence in the house of correction yesterday. When Corey stole the hams on the night of April 7, he was shot and seriously vounded by the night watchmen. Since that time he has been confined to jail awaiting trial. At his trial, Corey pleaded guilty to the charge, and the jury brought in a verdict of guilty and a sen- tence of from one year to life. After hearing the jury’s verdict, the judge, in an effort to change the face of capitalist “justice,” said, “The prison sentence of from one year to life is too severe for the offense. Under the jury verdict e might have spent 11 years in the penitentiary.” The judge then imposed a sentence of one year. The upholder of the law, however, failed to mention that the ser.tence of one year was also a little too severe for the offense. Fall, Doheny and @ompany stole millions and went scot free.

By economic, financial, diplomatic pressure, and by the ever-present threat of military aggression, Yankee imperialism has already laid its plighting hand upon the independence of Colombia, El Salvador, Vene- zuela, Bolivia, Peru, Guatamala and Honduras. Mexico, whose history is replete with brave struggles for freedom, finds itself virtually under | the dictatorship of Morrow, agent of the Morgan bank who speaks as | ambassador of the government of Morgan, Rockefeller, Mellon and Hoover. The speech of Hughes at the recent Havana conference laid the juridical basis for the present attack of the Yankee-puppet government Bolivia on behalf of its masters in Washington. The fruits of the Pan-American Conference as the instrument of the United States imperialist government in suborning the governments of Latin-American countries, are seen in the wars in Nicaragua and Bolivia-Paraguay. The fruits grow in a soil made fertile for slavery by the corruption spread among the masses of Latin-America by the so-called “Pan-American Federation of Labor” ruled by Yankee im- perialism through its agents who are the trade union bureaucrats of the American Federation of Labor. In the machinery of United States imperialism, in the United States, and also in Latin-America, the most unscrupulous agency, the most insidious influence for undermining the fighting morale of the working class and all anti-imperialist forces is the socialist party and the reformist trade union bureaucracy.
