AIL Y Fear That Sumner Was Murdered By Kentucky Coal Company Thugs | (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ers. * Meetings of locals of the NMU in the hills are evading the gun thugs and electing delegates. A thousand elected delegates are expected as well as many visitors, Tom Coyne, a victim of a criminal ayndicalist frame-up following the visit of the Dreiser Committee, has been released on # bond of $5,000 fur- nished by the International Labor Defense. He spent 24 days in the Middlesboro jail. In all the coal camps of Kentucky, and literally covering the country: side are leaflets announcing the Dis- trict Convention of the National Miners Union which will be held in the K, of P. Hall, Pienville, on Dec. 143. The gunmen are running wild ‘trying to stop the convention. Gunmen trailed Dan Brooks into Tennessee and arrested him in Chat- tanooga, according to reports. . Every mine in Harlan County has elected delegates to the District Con- vention, whidh will be held in Pine- ville next Sunday. New locals are being organized in mines where hitherto none existed. Every mine in Bell County is expected’ to be repre- sented, and already credentials from | Tennessee and Virginia are arriving. Miners arrested, report on their re- lease that every other miner in jail | has been signed into the National Miners Union. Organizers lose no time. i ‘Thrqughout the region, there is in- tense. activity. The Women’s Aux- iliaries that are growing rapidly, will also be represented at the conven- tion. Miners’ families, starving now on meager scri ay, are stowing away buckets of lard and sacks of flour, in rearation for the coming strike. The | convention will set the strike date. In most of the mines hereabouts, the oerators have discontinued offi- cial ay days and don’t even issue statements any more. What scrip they can squeeze out of the office, the miners get at the end of the day’s work. With this scrip, miners’ wives reckon carefully before choosing in company stores where prices are sky-high, and frequently do without meals to “save @ bite ahead” for the strike. Even the kids know that strike isn’t far off. MASS FIGHT ON CHINA’S LOOTERS TS MOUNTING {CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) throughout Manchuria. 400 Japanese were killed during an attack by Chin- ese peasants on an immensé Japan- ese owned ranch near Payanfala, about 225 miles northwest of Muk- den. The attack was carried out by 700 peasants. Only a few of the Jap- anese escaped. The ranch buildings were burned to the ground by the angry peasants. Large bands of armed peasants end disbanded sol- diers are active “even within seven miles of Mukden,” the dispatch re- ports. Some of the bands are 500 strong. The dispatch, which speaks of the Chinese workers and peasants as “bandits,” reports “a remarkable increase of raids by bandits and ir- regulars into the South Manchuria railroad zone...... The last four days have witnessed a total of twelve im- portant cases of rafding and looting ‘inside the zone.” Anti - imperialist demonstrations are reported sweeping all important Chinese centers. Capitalist press dis- patches are now forced to admit that these demonstrations are also dir- ected against the Kuomintang tools of the imperialists. A Nanking dis- patch to the New York Evening Post reports that 18 places in Nanking were marked for hostile demonstra- tions today by workers and students, It says: Attack Kuomintang Hadquarters. “The places marked for assault were the resident of Dr. Wellington | Koo, Foreign Minister; the home of the Finance, Minister and the head- quarters of the Kuomintang, bee tionalist Party. “The office of the Central Daily News was protected by sand bags against a threatened attack and the government provided extra guards for the Japanese consulate.” ‘The Canton branch of the Kuo- mintang, alarmed by the terrible anger of the mas es, is making a fake. gesture of sending an army against the Japanese invaders of Manchuria, As thé Canton leaders are the tools of Japanese and Brit- ish imperialisms, this gesture is simp. ly intended to deceive the masse , and divert them from the revolution- ary struggle against imperialism, thereby furthering Canton’s plan of succeeding the tottering Nanking government. A Shanghai dispatelr reports the need for a similar gesture by Nank- ing or “it will be unable to stand up in the face of the wild indignation of the public which has been feat- ured by a march of students and workers to the capital.” This is the first time that the ,capitali t press agencies have admitted the pressence ot workers in the anti-Japanese dem- onstrations. ' ‘The U. S. warning to Japan was opened by Hoover in his address to congress. While in that address, Hoover merely mentioned “the diffi- culties between China and Japan” and spoke ot fhe 4 rm” of the United States “for maintenace of the pirit of the Kellogg-Briand Pact” and the “maintenance of treaties”, he threatened Japan mith the possibil- tty of a sharper attack “in a later - message.” Baker Follows With Open Attack. ‘ Hoover's veiled threat was followed up on the same day with an open attack on Japan by Newton D, Baker, former secretary of war and now r-entioned as a democratic candidate for the presidential nomination. Baker openly accused the Japanese of violating the Nine-Power Treaty, declaring: “The Japanese case is pecullarly grave. The Nine-Power Treaty wa signed by her to fe peace in the East by guaranteeing the ter- ritorial and administrative integrity of China. She thus became a trus. tee obliged to prevent the very things she is now doing.” Baker scouted the Japanese plea, willingly accepted hitherto by all the imperialist powers, that the civil gov- ernment cannot control the army. He flung the terms “savages” and “hyp- ocritical savages” at the Japanese, although framing the e terms so as to apparently include all of the im- periatists, He said: t ' “If such treaties are not to he observed by nations interested to break them or enforced by other parties to them the whole structure upon which the peace of the world rests is an illusion and we are not only all savages but hypocritical savages.” U.S .Supports Japan in Pari . The cynical hypocrisy of Hoover’s and Baker’s attacks on Japan is fully exposed in the continued support given by the United States to Japan in the secret imperialists meetings in Paris. A Paris dispatch to the New York Times reports U. S. Ambas ador Dawes approving the League Council resolution which practically turns Manchuria over to the Japanese. The dispatch reports Dawes in several secret conferences with Briand at the French Foreign Office, and with Sir Eric Drummond, secretary general of the League of Nations. Of these con- ferences, the dispatch say “League officiais expresced satisfaction with the visit of the Artrican envey and seerned pleased at wnat Mr, Dawcs expressed Washington’ approval of the resolution and preface and of the main lines of the Council’s. plan of procedure, while asking details there- on.” Council to Adjourn to Leave Japan Free to Carry Out Plans. The dispatch further reports that the League Council plans to adjourn today, unless “confronted with a Japanese attack on Chinchow.” I+ is understood that the Council has accepted the Japanese demand. that Chinchow be included in the “Japa- ne e zone” in Manchuria. Adjourn- ment at this time means that the Council will leave the fleld clear for Japan to carry out her war moves in Manchuria, if satisfied that Japan will confine her military activities ‘within the agreement. A Mukden dispatch indicates that Japan will forcibly seize Chanchow as a voluntary withdrawal of the Chinese troops from that city by the Nanking government would face that government with the immediate dan- ger’ of an overthrow. The dispatch openly states that for Nanking to voluntarily withdraw “would be al- most suicidal for the Chinese govern- ment in view of the excited popular opinion and the student agitation.” It ees as the “only other alternative, having the Japanese Army for¢ées the Chinese armies southward of the Great Wall.” Japan Is New Drive Northward. Japan is reported in a new drive into northern Manchuria. The drive is accompanied with a renewal of the campaign of lies and provocation against the Soviet Union, thus clear- ly -revealing its anti-Soviet signifi- cance. A Tokyo dispatch peddles anew the lie that the Soviet Union is supplying arms and munition to the Chinese militarist Gen. Ma Chen- Shan. If says: “Consul General Ohashi at Harbin reports that a shipment of munitions has arrived at Hailun from Blugo- vestschensk and has been delivered at the headquarters of General Ma Chen- han in 150 Chinese carts and twelve motor trucks. He says there were 1,000 casks, each marked in Rus- sian, ‘1,200 rounds’, DEAD DEMOCRATS VOTE IN ATLANTA Live Workers Denied the Right (By a Worker Correspondent) ATLANTA, Ga—tIn a mock “graft investigation” it was found that people who had been dead for years were voting regularly. In order to vote, a worker must go to the city hall in February to sign tax statements, then at least a weck before each eleetion during the year he must register at the city hall. A list of those registering is taken to the polls and when a worker calls out his name and address to the agent at the polls, the agent tells him there must be some mistake as his name is not there. The worker, not knowing how, and being afraid of losing his job, to folow it up, usually quits trying to vote. Anyway, the bosses count the ballots and some are “advising” their employes whom to vote for. The voting facilities are kept open only during “office hours” and most work- ers cannot attend to all this. During their short lunch periods, the places |f are too crowded, NAACP INSPIRES BOSS TERROR IN CHATTANOOGA Militant Workers and Organizers Are Arrested CHATTANOOGA, Dec. 10—That the arrest of Jane Dillon, Interna- tional Labor Defense organizer in the South, and Dan Brooks, of the Trade Union Unity League, may have been instigated by the Interracial Com- mission and the NAACP, is the belief of General George W. Chamlee of Chattanooga, ILD attorney. General Chamlee declares in a let- ter to the ILD that the two workers are being jailed and persecuted in order to drum up a “red-scare” as the basis for a membership drive by the NAACP, Tirades against -the “reds” were flungout hot and furiously at a meeting of the two reformist organ- izations in Chattanooga on Dec. 7th. At a hearing of Dec. 8, Dan Brooks and Jane Dillon were bound over to the grand jury for trial-in January on charges of “vagrancy.” Both have been released under $500 bond. The arrests are part of a reign of terror against organizers and militant-work- ers in Chattanooga, Efforts will be made by the court to send Brooks back to Harlan, Ky., where he is charged with criminal syndicalism. At Harlan, too, news was spread that the coal operators had set a price of $2,500 upon Dan Brooks’ head—dead or alive, “In view of the report of the Dreiser commit- tee, we think we could get a fair trial in Kentucky and for him to go back would mean to be crucified,” writes General Chamlee. “There is a great bitterness against the Communists and against the ILD because of its friendship for ‘people who need assistance,” writes this southern lawyer. “The courts and the police here are greatly prejudiced against the ILD workers, and has a result these two people have little chance of acquittal, notwithstanding the fact that they are absolutely in- nocent of violating the law.” ‘ADMIT STRIKE OF CIGARMAKERS TIE UP ALL OF TAMPA United Press Garbles Story Of Basis Of General Strike NW YORK —Taking first cogniz- ance of the general strike in Tampa, Fla: of cigar makers for the release of sixteen frhmed workers and for improved conditions in the shops and unemployment aid and insurance, the United Press, capitalist: news service, carried a garbled story of the strike in the leading capitalist papers here. The United Press dispatch is forced to admit that the city is paralyzed by the general strike of the cigar work- ers and is just as effective, to use the UP simile, as a steel strike in Youngs- town or in Gary. The United Press story makes It appear that the strike is around the issue of the readers’ tribune alone, whereas the strike originated in the demand of the workers ‘for the re- lease of sixteen of their fellow work- ers now being held on a frame-up charge after police fired on a Nov. ith meeting in celebration of the 14th anniversary of the Russian Revolu- tion. The strike now is also for struggle against wage cuts and speed up and for immediate unemployment relief for hundreds of vunecapiores cigarmakers. The attempts of the bosses to abolish the readers’ tribune the work- ers correctly recognized as one of a series of repressions of the workers’ organizations, and an open wedge in attacking their low wages and poor working canditions, Vida Obrera, Spanish organ of the Communist Party, in its story of the 72 hour political strike in Tampa tells how all shops and schools were closed through the pressure of the, workers demanding the release of sixteen of their comrades framed on serious charges by the police, Very few districts have as yet set definite dates for readers’ conferences. These conferences are vital if the drive for 5,000 subscriptions to the Daily Worker is to’ be successful, All districts must report the dates for their readers’ conferences. Only a united effort on the entire front will win the battle for 5,000 12-month subs. wi YORKER, NEW. YORI THURSDAY Editorials See Mass| Support for March; “Hard to Meet” (ontinvED FROM PAGE ONE) from the sidelines; uncomfortable, ashamed.” The editorial asks “Is it ended?” and refers to “the remaining 8,000,000 jobless who would not march under Communist leaders.” The editorial writer either does not know or deli- berately conceals the fact that these 1,670 marchers were the elected dele- gates of the millions of jobless, speak- ing in their name. And there are 12,000,000 jobless now, not just 8,000, 000. ‘The editorial agrees that the “Com- munist leaders proved yesterday their ability to organize a peaceful demon- stration.” “Hard To Meet” The New York Post, organ of the banking house of J. P. Morgan, dec- lares plaintively: “Hunger marchers’ and similar demonstrations are hard things to meet. There is a certain amount of justification for them, even if it is felt that that justification is being exploited for political ends” The Post then goes on to insist that the march was “premature”—in the third year of mass starvation! It then goes on to talk against Communist lead- ership, but still again admits that “it had so much reasonableness that it had to be met reasonably.” This too is amazing, since the marchers were met by a huge display of military force, machine guys and automatic rifles. MASSES EAGER FOR REPORTS OF THE DELEGATES (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) he onlookers were many seemed columns will rest overnight. The Unemployed Councils and the local Arrangements Committee for the National Hunger March has put up an incessant fight for real food and clean lodging, not the slop and slop house accomodations given them on the way to Washington.

The next meeting will be held in Yorkville at 2 p. m., when the march proceeds to Martins Ferry where a meeting will be held at 3 p. m. Bridgeport workers will greet the marchers at half past three in a meeting there, and then the March will go across the bridge into Wheel- ing with a mass escort. The last stop in the Ohio Valley, will be in Bellaire, at 6 p. m. St. Louis Workers to Greet Column 4 at the City Hall Dec. 16.

In tion an export tax has been pleced on coffee of five shilling over and above the present tax of ten shillings a bag. These emergency measures have been taken in a desperate attempt to ward off the growing bankruptcy of the coffee markets. They are an out- come of the secret conference held on Dec. Ist ab eight coffee state resentative of the ment. Although the policy of restricting the cultivation of coffee and the de- struction of existing supplies has been pursued since the beginning of the crisis, the world’s visible supply of coffee, not taking into consideration the coffee stored in the interior war houses of Brazil, has risen to 6,754, 684 bags on Dec. 1 as compared with 6,374,431 bags on Nov*1st. The sup- ply of coffee on Dec. ist last yas 5,014,312 bags. he tremendous overproduction of coffee has had its effect in a steady lowering of the price of coffee on the world market. The drop in prices continued unabated especially in view of the prospect of a total pro- duction of coffee this year of 24 mil- lion bags which is considered a very large crop. In fact the Brazilian government's forecast calls for a combined pro- duction of coffee in 1931-33 of 39 mil- lion bags. This amount is from ten to twelve million bags in excess of the usual consumption of Brazilian coffee. The present price of coffee on the New York market is from 5 to 8 cents. This is a ruinous price for the coffee merchants and spells disaster for the Brazilian capitalists who deal mainly in coffee. , The crisis is sharpening in Brazil with these developments to the point where a commercial moratorium was forcibly declared and a suspension of service payments on the foreign debt which delegates of met with a rep- ilian govern- credit abroad as a result of the mor- atorium and suspension has forced the government to still further ex- pand its shaky credit by permitting banks to sell remittance abroad up to $10,000 a day whereas they had been formerly permitted to sell only up to $5,000. Report Gain In Cases Of Tuberculosis In Pennsylvania State A report of the Pennsylvania State Department of Health for Ottober reports an upward jump in the num- ber of tuberculosis cases. In that. month there were 730 cases reported, which is the highest, excepting Octo- ber, 1928, for the past ten years. These figures are very incomplete as it is well known that statistics on this disease of the working class are very poorly gathered and reported. The rise in these cases is due to the star- vation existing throughout the state, especially in the coal fields, Hunger March Committee urges all workers; Negro and white; men, wo- men and children to come to Ferry Hall, near Russel, Sunday ,December 13th at 1 p-m. and march, together with the Hunger Marchers, to Dance- land Auditorium, where thousands of workers will hear the report of the action of the U. S. Congress and Hunger Hoover, concerning Unem- ployment Insurance. This meeting will also be a pro- test against. the jailing of John Schmies for sixty days, by Mayor Murphy, for leading the Unemployed workers in the struggle for immediate relief. Mayor Murphy has always paraded as lberal and leader for “free” speech and assemblage, and stands exposed today as an agent of the bankers, auto manufacturers and real estate sharks. TO READ!

RAIL UNION HEADS Daily Worker Prints Program of Struggle NEW YORK—Over | chairmen 1,500 general of railroad union lodges siderng a 10 per cent railroad wage cut which the railroad bosse sinsist on putting over, and in which they have the support of the foremost leaders of the railroad brotherhoods. However, the union leaders are finding it difficult to put the wage cut over. They are proposing many schemes by which they hope to fool the rank and file. ¢ One of the maneuvers of the union fakers is the proposal of a six-hour day. But they say nothing about wages. The idea is to start off with a six-hour day which would amount to about a 25 per cent wage cut and then permit the bogses to speed up the workers so that they do eight hours work for six hours pay. The demand of the National Railroad In- “| dustrial League is a six-hour day with eight-hours pay. Not one word of struggle has been mentioned by the 1,500 general chair- man who are meeting in Chicago. Everything is being done to keep back the fighting spirit of the men. N. Y. Hospital Denies Medicine to Jobless New York, N. Y. Daily Worker: Since October 18, I have been going to the Polyclinic Hospital every six days for a, bottle of medicine that T paid 50 cents for. Yesterday morning however, I was unable to pay so I told the social service that I was unemployed and requested the medi- cine free. The woman in the social service then put on a sour face and went to the doctor in the laboratory and told him to prepare the medicine. It was prepared in twenty minutes and when the clerk called my num- ber, I said thanks. The clerk grabbed me by the arm and demanded the 50 cents. “Do not come again,” he said, unless you have the money to Drive Toledo Family Into A Vacant Lot (By a Worker Correspondent) TOLEDO, Ohio—We have @ family here who had all their furniture thrown out into the street a month ago because they couldn't pay rent.
