Lf DAIL Y WORKER, NEW YORK, S. OPERATORS RESORT TO INJUNCTION IN EFFORT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) tucky on Tuesday, to put the de- mands of the miners for unem- ployment insurance, immediate re- lief, and withdrawal of the gun thugs as well as release of the ar- \ ested leaders, to the governor ot Kentucky, ‘The miners and their wives will demonstrate at the state capitol on Wednesday for the following de- mands. 1.—Relief of $10 eache week for each striker and unemployed blacklisted miner. §3 for each de- Pendent. Government appropria- tion to be distributed by miners’ relief committees, 2.—Unemployment insurance equal to wages for each unem- Ployed and blacklisted and part time worker, 3.—Immediate release of ali min- ers and striking leaders arrested for strike activities, 4.—No eviction of strikers, biack- listed miners.

On Saturday and and Sunday the Section Commit- tees are meeting to make prepar- ation for Monday which is a big day of the strike. Hunger marchces are being planned on Bell and Whitley Counties, Taking the stand yesterday in their own defense, Vern Smith, Norma Martin and Ann Barton electrified the court rooin in Pinville with an exposure of the nature of the prose- cution and with the presentation of the principles of the National Min- ers Union and of the Workers In- ternational Relief. Smith Exposes U. M. W. A. ‘They were the only prisoners al- lowed to testify. Smith gave the his- tory of the United Miner Workers since its inception and compared it with the National Miners Union for forty five minutes. He showed the sell-out policy of the U. M. W. A. and the fighting rank and file leader- ship of the National Miners Union. Martin spoke for thirty minutes on the starvation among the miners and families here and explained the work of the Workers International Relief. Barton also spoke for thirty minutes on the horrible living con- ditions of workers here and nation- ally. All three spoke to the entire working class. Point Machine Guns at Miners. The demonstration outside the courthouse was covered by machine guns in the Hotel Continental oppo- site. A miner who tried to speak was stopped by the deputies. This caused many miners on the fence to swing lo the National Miners Union. Bosses Fear Testimony of Miners’ Wives Miners’ wives testified for the defense. The first one said the coat TO STOP STRIKE she was wearing was given to her by the Workers International Relief and was the first she owned in 13 years. The second said her children were starving before the N.M.U. and the W.LR. entered the coal fields. Both stated that the National Miners Union was not terroristic and “that the strike was peaceful until the deputies stepped in, The prosecution asked the defense not to put the remaining miners’ wives on the stand because they con- ceded the truth of the womens’ state- mets. Then the defense called a miner, Frank Goodman, of Harlan, to the stand. He told how five car- loads of gun thugs had taken him for a ride and had driven him out of Harlan and of how his child died of flux while he was away. As he finished his testimony, he was ar- rested by a deputy. Lawyer Bentall announced that he would end the defense under protest unless the prosecution stopped ar- resting witnesses. The prosecution released Goodman after consultation. Bentall forced Patterson, the oper- ators’ law} and assistant prosecu- tion attorney, to admit that the Na- tional Minesr Union was a good un- ion for the miners to join, The court room heard the prosecutor tell Pat- terson he had spoiled the case for the operators and Patterson drop- ped out of the case. Bentall asked Patterson if he re- presented the coal operators and Pat- terson admitted he did as a “friend of the court.” Bentall supped up in the three main points, namely, the arrests were to smash the National Miners Un- ion, to smash the relief, and the ne- cessity for the miners organizing like the coal operators were organizing. Smith, Barton and Martin were asked if ttrey belonged to the Com- munist Party. Martin and Barton answered no and Smith refused to answer saying the question was ir- relevent. ‘The decision of the court on the bond is due late today. Miners Hear About Unemployment Insurance At the demonstration outside the court house, County Clerk Pur- sifull read extracts from “No Jobs Today” by Phil Bard, cartoonist, and so many miners asked, “Ain't that the truth,” that Pursifull had to stop reading. D. Bingham and J. Taylor, the two best lawyers in Bell County, volun- teered their services at the last min- ute and Taylor attacked the judge for two hours, saying, “You should be ashamed of yourself for signing war- rants for these people. You should love them for bringing relief to our starving haggard tots.” Bingham is an ex-miner and is relatively poor. It is reported that barbed wire charged with electricity has been placed in the Harlan mines. Ninety-two strike leaders, includ- ing ten prisoners, were ordered to appear in court in Lexington on January 16, to show cause why the Straight Creek Coal Co. should not be given a preliminary Federal in- junction enjoining the leaders from virtually all strike activity. Patter- son, assistant prosecution attorney, is attorney for this company. The march on Frankfort to the Governor has been postponed, but plans are being made to send 50 ex-servicemen with discharges and demands to end the terror, release of prisoners and unemployment insurance, (The min- ers love the Daily Worker here), RALLY IN THE STRUGGLE FOR UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) miuti-millionaire industrial barons and their government. Only the de- termined resistance of the unem- ployed can stem the attacks upon the very existence of millions of toil- ers and the standards of the entire Population. “Only if we force the government. and bosses to provide a system of unemployment insurance, equal to full wages for all unemployed and part time workers, can we assure our right and the right of our families te life. Only by compelling the bosses and government to pay from their swollen coffers for our upkeep, can we force them to abandon the use of the unemployed as a threat against the whole working class. “The National Committee of the Unemployed Councils of the U. 8., acting on the decisions of the his- toric National Hunger March, has called for a National Day of Struggle for Unemployment Insurance.

We call upon all workers, employed and unem- ployed, to join in making this day of militant struggle that will raise to a new and higher level the tight of the masses against hunger. “Our special task must be to rally the workers in the shops and in the unions still under reactionary lead- ership, for participation in this day of struggle. We must help the Un- employed Councils develop the local Struggles against evictions, against the fake charity racketeers, against the demagogic rascals who seek to mislead and devitalize the struggle of the unemployed.

A fellow worker asked one of the officials how about a place to sleep. He was told to get the hell out and sleep in the street, It is about time to get a little action inside of this place. A few deter- mined men could organize the 2,000 workers that come here everyday. These so-called relief stations are functioning* worse every day. More and more workers are being forced to come to these degrading places to try to get some shelter. RUBY BATES ADMITS SHE LIED ON BOYS (CONTINUED FRUM PAGE ONED tained by a white worker, Miron Pearlman, who knows Ruby intim- ately, and visited her in Huntsville, Alabama. the Huntsville police. The letter was found on him. There was a wild hullabaloo, Pearlman was terrorized into stating that Gen. George W. Chamlee, chief of counsel for the In- ternational Labor Defense, bribed him to intoxicate the girl and get her to write the letter. Ruby was immediately visited by the police and forced to sign a retraction saying, “she was so drunk she didn’t know what she was doing.” Roddy In New Attack On Defense ‘The forced statement of Pearlman was used by Stephen Roddy, N.A.A. CP. attorney, and the Huntsville police im an attempt to besmirch Chamlee and injure the Scottsboro defense. Roddy filed charges with the Chattanooga Bar Association against Chamlee, charging Chamlee with unethical conduct. The Chat- tanooga Bar Association is favorably disposed to Chamlee, but several of its members yesterday tried to exert pressure cn him to withdraw from the Scottsboro Defense, They pro- mised to support him in smashing the fake charges against him if he withdrew. Chamlee has refused to withdraw, stating that he will con- tinue to work with the International Labor Defense for the release of the boys in spite of all attacks by Roddy and others. Chamlee was cleared of the fak> bribery and frame-up charges yester- day by George Proctor, special writer for the New Masses, a magazine pub- lished in New York. Proctor made @ public statement that he had sent Miron Pearlman to Huntsville to get the truth about the Scottsboro case. Proctor denies that he instructed Pearlman to get the girl drunk and charges the Huntsville police with suppressing evidence exposing the frame-up of the 9 Scottsboro boys. He demands publication of the let- ter and denounces the Huntsville po- lice for attempting to spike the in- vestigation and seeking to besmirch Chamlee. Roddy “Withdraws” From Case Pearlman has admitted that Chamlee never gave him any money, as charged by the Huntsville police. Pearlman’s lawyers declare that the Chattanooga News is exerting pres- sure on Pearlman to prevent him from telling the truth that he was sent to Huntsville by Proctor, and not by Chamlee. Huntsville police are charged with tapping the wires when Pearlman called up Chamlee to ask him to no- tify Proctor of his arrest. Stephen Roddy, N.A.AC.P, attor- ney, announced tonight that he has “withdrawn” from the Scottsboro case, but continues his vicious at- tacks against the International La- bor Defense. He repeats his old lies against the mothers of the Scotts- boro boys, charging that the women who toured the country in support of the defense of their children were not the mothers of the boys. ‘This is the same lie peddled by Walter White, William Pickens and other N.A.A.C.P, misleaders when, fearing an exposure by the mothers of the boys, they denied the floor to them at meetings ostensibly cal- led for the “defense” of the Scotts- boro boys. Both the boys and their mothers and other kin have repeat- edly denounced Roddy and the N.A. A.C.P. misleaders as liars and assas- sins of their boys, Police Spy On LL.D. Offices Chattanooga police have been tip- ped off to spy on the local offices of the International Labor Defense. Yesterday this correspondent was trailed all day by a local Red Squad dick who thought I was Proctor. . 8 6 National I.L.D.

FIVE THOUSAND DAILY WORKER 12-MONTH SUBSCRIPTIONS «, BY JANUARY $thi * turned out after being given the usual | Pearlman was arrested by | All Aid to the Revolutionary Masses of China! MERICAN workers, starving but fighting against the hunger program of Wall Street and Washington, should realize they have a mighty ally in the million-masses of Chinese workers and peasants, now rising with a vast revolutionary wave to expel imperialist invaders and those | who loot the nation with the aid of the native Kuomintang militarists. Every blow struck by thé Chinese masses at the imperialist foe and the native capitalist-landlord-militarist regime, weakens the rule of Wall Street in America also, and gives great support to the American working class in its fight against capitalist rule. American worker, you must be filled with pride and joy, therefore, at the recent dispatches showing that the strong arm of the Chinese work- ers and peasants is dealing ever stronger blows at the imperialist in- vaders and bandits, and doing it by literally tramping into the mud the shameless tool of American imperialism, the Nanking “government” of Chiang Kai-shek and Sun Fo. ‘Thursday's papers told of the resignation of Huang Han-liang, Min- ister of Finance in the Nanking “government,” Huang openly confessing that Nanking finances are “in a hopeless muddle and beyond power of administration.” This bankruptcy is far from being merely financial. The Kuomintang has, of course, looted everything. It has stolen for the purses of Chiang Kai-shek and others of the “Soong dynasty” the funds that should have gone to keep in repair China’s vast waterways and thus, in the past few months, thrown 50,000,000 people into the jaws of flood and famine. But what has become obvious to the masses most clearly, is the fact that the Kuomintang leaders have opened the road for complete national dismemberment by armed invaders of imperialism, led, but not wholly, by the Japanese army. The Chinese masses, led by the Communist Party, and fortified by the successes already won under the Workers’ and Peasants’ Soviets in central China, are themselves taking the initia- tive in armed struggle against imperialism. Daily the Red Army creeps closer and closer to Hankow, the “Chi- cago of China.” And daily, in Manchuria, the worker-peasant ma: | tise up in battle against the Japanese invader. One day, a whole com- pany of Japanese troops are wiped out by these independence fighters. Again, in Thursday's press, imperialist Japan, arrogant beyond words, has to admit that two hundred of its troops were killed at Tahushan, seventy miles northeast of Chinchow! Most astonishing it is, also, that whereas these fighters for inde- pendence have been invariably called “bandits” whenever they have been defeated, Thursday's Associated Press reports of their victories refer to them as “volunteer militia groups.” The importance of these “volunteer militia groups” may be better understood in the light of the following extract from the imperialist “Far Eastern Review” published in Shanghai last August—before, take note, the Japanese invasion started: “The nucleus of Communist armies are everywhere in evidence throughout Manchuria. Another year of decline in demand and low prices for the soy bean will open the way for Soviet domina- tion in North Manchuria.” The above is the voice of an agent of Wall Street imperialism, and sheds a light also on the very obvious approval of the Washington gov- ernment on Japanese occt:pation of Manchuria. American imperialism takes most seriously the Japanese “explanation” that what sanctifies Japanese seizure of Manchuria is that it “saves Manchuria from Bolshe- vism.” Indeed American imperialism openly encourages Japan to make Manchuria a base for war against the Soviet Union. The Tokio imperialists occupy and make clever use of their adyan- tageous position among the whole band of imperialist wolves, advanc- ing upon any excuse toward and into the South, where they collide most sharply with the interests of America and England, but always ready, when called upon by Stimson to keep their troop mo. .nents directed toward the Soviet Union frontier, to offer compensation by threatening Harbin, and moying into Inner Mongolia. The workers of America must hail with pride the victorious blows of the Chinese masses against this whole gang of imperialist cutthroats. But we must also be on guard, because the very sharpness of the dis- putes between imperialist bandits of Washington and Tokio is contin- ually being mollified by a common understanding to attack the Soviet Union as the means of escape from insoluble conflicts over which robber imperialism should grab the most and the richest of loot. In effect, Washington keeps pointing out to Japan that its invasion of central China would be a hostile act against America, but there is plenty of loot to the North—in Soviet Siberia. Therefore Washington reports show smug pleasure on the part of Stimson and Hoover at the news that 50,000 Czarist “white guards” are being gathered in Manchuria by the cutthroat Semenoff, under Japanese protection, for war against the Soviet Union when Spring comes! Workers! ‘You who, like the Chinese masses, are fighting American imperialism, fighting for unemployment insurance and against Hoover's hunger program; demand in your February 4th unemployed demonstra- tions, besides unemployment insurance—-HANDS OFF CHINA!

Chinese Red Army Within 10 Miles (f Hankow; Capture Three Towns (CONTINUED FROM PAGH ONE? and Inner Mongolia again inflicted smashing defeats on Japanese forces yesterday. A strong Japanese force | was compelled to retreat from the city of Tahushan after 48 hours of severe fighting with the partisans. The city was re-occupied by the partisans troops. A Tientsin dispatch to the New York Sun reports admission in the Japanese and Kuomintang press of the victories of the partisans. It says: “Both Chinese and Japanese news- papers said the Japanese have been forced to retreat from the positions they occupied along the Peiping- Mukden Railway, following their advance to Chinchow, and that their losses in dead and wounded have been heavy in the several days of fighting. They were defeated in most places, the newspaper said.” ‘The Japanese papers do not give the number of Japanese casualties, but it is known that at Chinsi a strong Japanese force was practically wiped out. In a savage effort to crush the resistance of the Chinese masses, the Japanese yesterday bombed several towns along the Manchurla-Inner Mongolia border killing many work- ers and their children. Japanese Burn Chinese Alive. Walter Bosshardt, Mukden cor- respondent for the Ullsteim agency in Berlin reports that a Japanese firing squad executed 19 Chinese civilians at Tahoshan on Jan. 10 and burned alive three other Tahoshan citizens the same day. A Berlin dispate: reports: and the Japanese consul are reported to have been withdrawn. Japanese warships are still in the harbor, The Nanking government is re- ported to have promised the Jap- anese “to try to curb the anti- Japanese boycott.” The boycott has caused tremendous losses to the Jap- anese and to Chinese merchants. The latter have been trying to curb it for some time. A Tientsin dispatch re- ports that Eugene Chen, Nanking Foreign Minister, has promised Gen. Kashii, who commands the Japanese call off the boycott. It is now revealed that the Butcher Chiang Kai-shek emptied the Nanking treasury when he was forced out by the anger of the masses over the Manchuria sell- out. Chiang is accused of not only cleaning out the treasury but obli- gating the new counter-revolution- ary government to pay a consider- able amount of post-dated bills. This is the same Chiang, together with the rest of the Kuomintang traltors, who had no funds for re- Hef of the tens of millions of suf- ferers in the flood disaster and other “natural catastrophies” which were made possible simply because the Kuomintang militarists con- sistently looted the treasury and vefused to spend any money in re- pairing the canals or to carry thru other flood control measures, The looting of the treasury by Chiang {s one of the chaotic finan- cial crises which is now ripping the Nanking government. Chiang 1s not the only one looting the public funds. All of the Kuomintang leaders are engaged in the same robbery. The provincial leaders are holding on to the customs, salt and tobacco rev- enues, according to a Shanghai dis- patch to the New York Times. The Canton city government is reported to be retaining customs revenues “for the redemption of military bonds.” The militarists in the other provinces “are reported to haye reached a similar decision.” Chinese bankers in Shanghal are reported to have made a loan to the “The correspondent, who made a five-day tour of the region, re- ported that Japanese airplanes dropped eighteen bombs on the main street of Tungliao and kilied twenty citizens, although Chinese forces had withdrawn from Tung- Hao five days previously.” At the Chinese city of Tsingtao Japanese national chauvinists are threatening further attacks on Chin- ese papers for publication of news unfavorable to Japanese imperialism. ‘The editor of the British daily was also upbratded for printing an ac-| Nanking government after forcing count of the attacks last Tuesday | the government to accept their con- night by Japanese on the offices of | ditions, One of these conditions a Chinese paper.
