More Murder in Alabama esas! R. L. Shamblin and Judge Henry B. Foster of Tuscaloosa are responsible for the murder of two Negro boys day before yesterday. Sheriff Shamblin- took Dan Pippen, Jr., 18 years old, and A. T. Hardein, 16 years old, and a third Negro, Elmore Clark, out of jail and carried them by automobile to a pre-arranged place where he turned them over to a small group of murderers who met the sheriff there by appointment. \ The gang there shot the two innocent boys to death. This action was performed by Sheriff Shamblin with the admitted foreknowledge of Judge Foster that such a plan was contemplated. There was no mob. The small group of murderers occupied only two automobiles. To make it appear that Foster and Shamblin had suc- eeeded in their effort to stir up a popular mass movement to commit this murder, only serves to obscure the fact that the guilt rests upon the shoulders of a small property-owning group of the ruling class. The participation of the authorities in the murder is indicated by the incident of the handcuffs. Sheriff Shamblin who, with two deputies, took the boys out to deliver them to the murder gang, presumably had in his possession the keys to the handcuffs. Someone possessing these keys un- locked the cuff which bound the 18-year old Pippen boy to .the third Negro, Clark, so that Clark could be taken away while the two boys were murdered and left on the ground still chained together. t: is clear that this was the ‘same. group which with the approval of Judge Foster and Sheriff Shamblin had threatened the lives of the Negroes’ attorneys, employed through the International Labor Defense. Be it remembered that Judge Foster, Sheriff Shamblin, and also Governor Miller of the State of Alabama had encouraged and co-operated with this gang, and that Judge Foster had himself ordered the attorneys out of the court room after the sheriff and others had terrorized the Negro relatives into denying that they had empowered the I. L. D. to defend them. Through the lynching of these Negro boys, the Southern gentlemen— the white ruling class—hope to strike fear into the hearts of the Negro people and to divide the growing unity of the white and Negro toilers. The defense policy of the I.L.D., the heroic struggle for national libera- tion of the Negro people led by the Communist Party has defeated many of the attempted lynchings in the South. Throughout the country there must now sweep a mass wave of anger and protest. ON WITH THE FIGHT AGAINST THE BEASTLY CRIME OF THE RULING CLASS! i = WHITE WORKERS! NEGROES! SUPPORT THE MASS DEMON- STRATIONS WHICH"MUST BE HELD IN EVERY CITY AND TOWN! The Miners Continue to Fight RAs in the coal pits, the coal miners of Pennsylvania are making it clear to Mr. Roosevelt, and his labor lieutenants Lewis and Green that thé fight has only begun. Government pressure, open treachery plus a lot of promises sent the men back to work, But the whole situation in the coal fields is one of mobilization of forces in, whith the miners are preparing for struggle to win their demands. The miners did not give up the strike. They are in amore fighting mood than ever, and there is no mistake about that. In this situation the government is preparing to take off its velvet glove and show its iron fist to the miners. From Washington we have this ominous news from the New York Times special correspondent: “In the opinion of leading officials of the NRA who are con- versant with the soft coal situation, this problem ‘is as dangerous ; as dynamite,’ and holds grave potentialities. Opinions expressed privately among these officials is that once a conflagration starts in the coal fields neither the union nor the operators. would be able to hold it in check... “In the South, miners have rifles in their homes and operators have veritable arsenals. Conflicts between them at this time, it was said, would mean the dispatch of state and federal troops to keep order... “All these considerations have led to the opinion in various / quarters that only the firm hand of the president can stay the threat of national disaster.” The very fact that Washington already speaks of federal troops means that the coal code will be a blow to the miners. When the New York Times correspondent speaks of armed miners and coal operators with “veritable arsenals” he already, gives the pretext under. which the government will send federal troops in to break the strike. * * * \ ‘ IN Washington, the Roosevelt officials begirr to see that the U.M.W.A. officials will not be able to hold the miners back from a strike struggle that will put the reeently betrayed strike in the shade. We cannot wait until that comes, but with all our energies must pene- trate the ranks of the miners with our program of action. The delegates who returned from Washington where they presented the demands of the N.M.U. have a particular role to play, telling the miners of what hap- pened and what is to come. Imaginary. Jobs rT speech General Johnson made yesterday at St. Louis announcing the miracle of new jobs is like the soft soap of @ circus barker, “The president’s re-employment program is far ahead of schedule,” he shouts. But evidence? Don’t be foolish, Roosevelt’s slick agents (quite as slick as himself) don’t need any. Says Johnson: ne “We are not trying to get figures. We do not need them just now and neither do you... I am proud to follow Roosevelt blindly.” But it is no wonder that the general“hates to mention figures. For the figures prove that he is trying to throw dust into the eyes of the workers. The figures of the “Federationist”, organ of the A. F. of L., show that in the last four months there has not taken place any rise in em- ’ ployment greater than one and half per cent. And the figures of the Federal Reserve Board prove that the increase in production was at least 400 per cent greater than the increase in jobs. Roosevelt and Johnson hail the increase in textile employment as the dawn of prosperity, But not only does the increase take place on the basis of speed-up and actual wage-cutting, but retail buying of tex- tiles is far behind present production. i if The Wall Street finance organ, the “Annalist” admits this when it says: K “Retail is hot keeping pace with industrial production, and departmént store SALES ARE NOT KEEPING PACE WITH TEXTILE PRODUCTION,” 4 ‘This is certain evidence that the temporary, moderate, “boom” in textiles is doomed to swift and disastrous collapse. ‘That's why Johnson is so shy about figures. They prove his speech about new jobs to be a crude piece of Roosevelt ballyhoo which is begin- more like the stale and discredited optimism of _ the ill-famed Luoven, ~ 12,000 Miners Still ‘Attacks Withdrawal Big Dress Meet at Striking for Own Checkweighmen Tremendous Interest Aroused Among Miners} By N. M. U. Statements at Code Hearings; Arrange Many Meetings for Delegates By BILL DUNNE. PITTSBURGH, Aug. 14—A monday morning survey shows that the flood of “back to work” propaganda over the week-end was unable to over- come the smouldering resentment in the coal fields. A check-up reveals more than 7,000 miners staying out today with a number of mines expected to be closed again by walkouts, In the Bethlehem Steel Co. mines at Ellsworth and Bentleyville region alone 5,000 miners are striking. The company refused to allow the elec- tion of a chcckweighman. The com- pany is sending barges down the Monongahela to get coal from the Morgantown ard Scots Run areas in West Virginia where some of the mines are working under UMWA contracts signed by Van Bittner. 1500 Out At Montour In the Clarksville section leaflets were distributed yesterday calling on the men of the Rainey mines to stay out until a checkweighman is elected. These mines were closed today. Fif- teen hundred miners at the Montour Mine No. 10 of the Pittsburgh Coal Co., who announced Saturday that they are striking for checkweigh- men, are still out today. _ The Vesta mines, a Jones-Laugh- lin subsidiary were supposed to open today, but. early mcrning rumors from the field were that some 4500 minerg are not returning. This would bring the total out on strike close to 12,000. “Men Not Returning” J. J. McCune, genera! superintend- ent of the Bethlehem Mines Corpor- ation stated today: “Our mines are ready for work, the men simply are not returning.” He does not mention the fact that the company refused to recognize checkweighmen. At Lowber, close to Fayette County, Eclipse, Manown and Price- dale operations were to start full blast today, but reports from the field indicate either that-they are not working or are working with small forces, A typical attitude of the NIRA leaders cooperation with the mine owners is shown by a list of ques- tions sent to the operators by Gerard Swope, head of the General Electric, to the chairman of the soft coal med- iation board to which L, E. Young, vice-president of the Pittsburgh Coal Co. makes a public reply: “I do not know why-the miners are on strike.” “War Goes On’ Developments in the field show that the Daily Worker statement on Saturday that “one battle is ended but the war goes on” is fully jus- tified. The lull over the week-end was the result of the criminal conspiracy of the UMWA officials, Roosevelt and the NIRA machinery to drive the miners back to work, coupled with carefully rehearsed theatricals at the Washington hearing between Lewis and the operators, and now succeeded by a whole series of rear- guard actions by the miners. Even brief reports carried by the press here show that the statement of Frank Borich, secretary of the National Miners Union, at the coal code hearings aroused tremendous interest among the mitters. The NMU is calling mass meetings for a report by Borich and the Wom- en’s Auxiliary in Westmoreland County, Allegheny Valley, Avell and the Brownsville section.

The workers were ordered to resume work today ac- cording to an agreement reached in Washington by the union officials and Miss Perkins, secretary of labor. The agreement contains a clause leaving adjustment of wages to the state board of arbitration. There will be no raise in wages until Sept. 15, except to. cover reduction in hours. The workers are bitter, especially against the state board. The offi- cials put over the agreement at sep- arate local meetings, misrepresent- ing Hie sentiment of the different locals. Nelson Pratt, member of the state legislature, was used by the offi- cials and Lovestoneites, as a union representative in tne sell-out ar- rangement in Washington. He was used to threaten the workers to go back to work in the name of the government. Gralton, Irish Red Leader, Is Deported From Home to U.S. COBH, Ireland, Aug. 14.—James Gralton is,on his way to New York, deported from his native country. Captured in a lonely mountain pass in his native County Leitrim, the revolutionary working farmer was rushed aboard the Brittanic, bound or New York, after dodging police for months. Gralton is a veteran of the Anglo- Trish ’tan and civil wars. He had been ordered deported from his birthplace at Effernagh, at the height of a furious anti-Communist campaign Gralton emigrated to the U. S. 25 years ago, was naturalized, and later returned to Ireland to take part in the Irish revolutionary movement.

It is anticipated that the call will bring out more than a thousand workers ‘The strikers will gather at Manhat- tan Lyceum, 66 East 4th St., today at 10a.m. The main demands for which the strike is being waged are as fol-| lows: establishment of a minimum | | chairman. wage scale of $1.25 for skilled work- ers and from 50 cents to $1 an hour for semi-skilled and unskilled work- ers; abolition of all piece work; estab- lishment of an unemployment relief fund to be paid by the employers and controlled by the workers and recog- nition of both unions. Communist Worker Killed by Shock NEW YORK, Aug. 14,—Exhaust- ed by the speed-up instiluted by the company to increase its profits, Ste- phen Graham, member of the “»om- munist Party and the Food Work- ers Industrial Union, slipped while cleaning a machine at the factory of the Vita-Bran Company at 841 Tillory Ave., Bronx, and was killed by an electric shock. Comrade Graham was active in the Food Workers Industrial Union and had just written a pamphlet de- nouncing the speed-up at the Vita- Bran factory. For his activity as an organizer of workers in Norfolk, Virginia, he was held for deporta- tion to Jugo-Slavia. Despite the fact that he was out on bail, Com- rade Graham did not slacken his work against the exploitation and speed-up of the food manufacturers.

All preparations have been made for the big strike mass meeting of dressmakers today, Tuesday, 5 p. m., at the Hippodrome, 43rd Street and 6th Avenue. Dressmakers in every section of the city are enthusiastically preparing for this giant mass meeting. Thousands of dressmakers are expected to fill the Hippodrome, where a vote will be taken for an immediate general strike in the dress industry. In the union it is expected that the vote will be for a strike. All strike arrangements have already been made. Strike machinery was set up on Saturday, at a special ‘meet- ing of shop chairmen and active workers. Strike halls have been taken and active workers assigned to various strike posts. Special com- mittees were set up for the various sections surrounding New York City, ere dress shops are located.

The Interpational officials have not as yet replied. Instead the officials of the International have been mak- ing secret deals with the heads of the various dress bosses associations, in- cluding the Metropolitan Dress Con- tractors Association, which even Mr. Hochman not long ago called a racketeering association. Speaking at a meeting of the | strike committee on Saturday, Mr. Cleaning Machine: Dubinsky made. it clear that the strike they are calling is not for the purpose of improving the conditions | of the dressmakers but for the pur- pose of luring the workers into the International. Mr. Dubinsky said, “It is now a psychological moment for organizing the tens of thousands of dressmakers in the International and it would be a shame if we did not utilize this opportunity.” None of the officials of the International, speaking at this strike committee meeting were concerned with im- proving the conditions of the dress- makers. The officials of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union have already made preparations with the big dress bosses to send the workesr back to the shops after a few days of strike without any substantial wage. increases.

NEW YORK.—Demand for the arrest of Judge Henry B. Foster and Sheriff R. L. Shamblin of Tus- caloosa, Alabama, for the lynching of three Negro boys framed and indicted on murder charges, was made yesterday in a wire to Gov- ernor Miller by the ILD, The wire demanded Boies of safety, and the immediate release, of the two defendants still held in Tuscaloosa. Other wires to Foster and Shamblin charged them with direct responsi- bility for the murder, and held them Br ane for the safety of the other two. The three Negroes lynched were Dan Pi dr, A. T, 15, and share, 38, sun bald in Tuscaloosa are Willie Jimison, held for investigation, and Dan Pip- pen, Sr., charged with “obstructing the investigation.” Meanwhile, dispatches from Tus- caloosa disclosed that during the day a fourth Negro, whose name authorities did not reveal, was mur- dered by police officers in the town itself, on Sunday. The excuse was put forward that he “attempted to resist arrest.” A x The ILD raised the question of how Dan Pippen, Jr., was in Tus- caloosa, Saturday an when @ court order was made August 2, that he be taken to Kilby Prison, Mont- gomery, Ala., until the trial was re- sumed. In the answer to this ques- tion, the ILD asserted, will be fur- ther proof, if any were needed, of the direct complicity of Judge Foster and Sheriff Shamblin in the case. Reports that: Governor Miller and ig Foster had ordered nm into the lynching was charae-{ceeded to murder tum”. terized by the ILD as nothing more than a maneuver to cover up the track of the lynchers. “The first thing w ‘do if such an investigation were sincere would be to arrest Foster and Shamblin and proceed with murder charges against them,” Frank Spector, assistant na- tionary secretary of the ILD, said. “Both have admitted that they knew of the lynchers’ intentions im ad- vance. Shamblin is not even re- ported as >retending that he made any resistance to the gang that took their victims from his hands. He has brazenly admitted that he sent back his convoy of deputies, and when the time came, simply turned over his prisoners to a gang of arm- ed men.

Aug. 14.— The official version of the lynching of Dan Pippen, Jr, A. T. Harden, and Elmore Clarke, full of discrep- ancies, holes, and contradictions, as given: out by Shériff R. L, Shamblin, is as follows: Pippen (who was supposed to be in Kilby Prison, Montgomery, ac- cording to a court order made on Aug. 2), Harden, and Clarke, were threatened with lynching in the Tus- caloosa lock-up. The sheriff therefore took them out, selected an unfrequented road to Birmingham, and set out there with them. to put them into the Jef- ferson County jail. He and two dep- uties were in a car with the defend- ants. Another car loaded with dep- uties followed as a convoy. Dismisses Convoy Twenty miles out of Tuscaloosa, he dismissed his convoy. - iles further, County ine, ade 23 miles from Birmingham, Sheriff Shamblin said, two cars, loaded with a dozen armed and masked men, stopped him and demanded that he turn over the prisoners he had in his custody to them, He turned them over without any pretense of resistance, and returned to Tuscaloosa to report the “inci- dent.” Later, searching parties found the bodies of Pippen and Har- den near Woodstock, in Bibb County, handcuffed ether, by the side of the road, with more than twency- five bullet wounds in them. The body of Clarke has not been found. The sheriff, without even pretending to give a source for this information, said he believed Clarke has been turned loose. No explanation of how any gang of men could have discovered the trail taken by the sheriff and way- laid them, without being informed by the sheriff or Judge Foster, we) gind to make this correction, tion, failed entirely to appease the workers, who have been carrying out militant demonstrations throughout the island, and continued to take into their own hands the punishment of the criminals of the Machado re- gime. At the same time two U. S. war- ships had steamed into Havana har- bor, by agreement between President Cespedes and U. S. Ambassador Sumner Welles, and two more were on their way to Manzanillo, a center of the sugar industry and of mass revolutionary struggles. Claude A. Swanson, U. 8. Secre- tary of the Navy said he was pre- pared to land 1,500 marines at any time. President Roosevelt last night {s- sued a statement that the sending of warships into Cuban waters was “solely for the purpose of safeguard- ing and protecting the jlives and persons~ of” Americar citizens in Cuba.” This is the formula which the U.S government has used to cover every act of intervention it has carried out in the Americas. Under this slogan it has intervened in Nicaragua, Haiti, Santo Domingo, Mexico, Panama and Colombia. Concession to Strikers a Maneuver.
