Utah, ueeply impressed by what they witnessed during a brief stop at the Soviet port of Lenin- grad, organize and strike against working on a Sunday, their day off. Led by Slim, a member of the Marine Workers Industrial Union, the ship is being slawly organized, with more and more members of the crew joining the union. “You read how Pitts, after joining the M. W. I. U. at Leningrad, circulated a resolution for the defense of the Soviet Union, and how Bobby attended the world read how the men protested against the serving of hash and tapioca paste for Sunday dinner, marching manding better food,-.Then they go about organizing a ship's committee and draw up their demands in preparation for strike. installment: INSTALL a during the next day, the pass- engers stuck their heads over the | railing.

But the bleeding head of the kid, and his breathlessness, told them enough. .With one movement, they crowded the second mate to the rail- ing. “Take the lines off the winch!” or- dered Slim. “Lines overboard!” Eddie turned and started for'd, Midships, one.of the Cadets started after him, and Eddie started to holler to Gunnar: “Lines off the winches! lines overboard!” The mate jumped to the winch and started grappling with Gunnar. The other men hesitated a minute.

It won't be long now!” He was right. The mate, accom- panied by four policemen, came in, All with drawn revolvers. The mate seemed beside himself with rage and fright. An endless flow of curses issued out of his mouth. As soon as he saw Slim, he made a go at him. The next minute, an enamel pitcher bounced off the mate’s head, from behind, Bobby! Losing control of himself entirely, he fought past the cops and sailed into the mate. A shot rang.out. Bobby groaned, threw his hands up, and collapsed. Two shots more ,. .

Corréspondent) SPRINGFIELD, Ill.—Being a reader of the Daily, I waited: in vain last week for news or an article on the things that happened at the Pro- gressive Miners’ anniversary cé- lebration at.Benld, at..which more than 30,000 miners, their wives, and families, from all over the state, were present.

Most of us came to this, celebra- tion expecting to hear miners tell of the heroic struggles of Progressives till on striké in Franklin, William- , Saline, Perry, and Christian ties. We expected .to-hear stories the heroi¢ sacrifices made and be- ing made to establish the Progres- sive Miners. We expected to hear a further program of action. As mem- “bers of an organization which has ‘red bait x .old fashioned.

There was the Offiglaldom of, the Progres- sive Minets of the — notorious 4 Fries, who in 1931 turned over miners who were, protesting, against Lewis ‘ falker to -the authorities of Franklin County, none other than the well known -Sheriff Robinson. And with him was his first lieutenant, States’ Attorney Sefrit; whose main my wr0s there were some senators, etc. who kept on telling funny stories and how much they were going to do for us! The whole thing was enough to: turn a guy’s stomach. It's just as Mrs. Wieck. (the only left wing speak-| er allowed because they did not dare exclude her) said: “Last year on the very same platform we had all kinds of. speakers, all kinds of political ideas represented: Republican, Demo- cratic, Socialist, Communist—but they were all workers, they were all min- ers, and today what do we have on this same platform—a bunch of po- liticians,” There was not only “red-baitin2” from the stage, but 200. special depu- ties were placed in the park to guard against the reds, the very ones who were on the picket line, the very ones who fought against Lewis and built the Progressive Miners of America. An example of the gag rule now being enforced by the leadership of the P.M. A, can be seen from the fol- lowing incident. A bunch of Pro- gressive Miners from Mascoutah came down to the celebration. They were standing and talking to each other, and remarking that they did not like the sheriff's statement that “I dare the Communists to hold a meet- ing in this county.” Moreover, these miners liked the speech of Mrs. Wieck and so they applauded. All of a sudden| a deputy was in front of demanding were, They said: “from Mascoutah.’ Then he asked: “What do you do there?” not only did he ask, but he looked ready for a fight, They answered: “Wre're miners.” “Well,” he said, “We don’t want any red stuff around here; or we'll drive you out of town.” In the midst of all this a leaflet came down, issued by . The leaflet told a lot of dirt about P.M.A leaders and must have been issued by a Peabody agent. They tried to say that Communists issued the leaf- let, but the miners wouldn't swallow that stuff, so they had to quit. The miners are convinced that the person who wrote the leaflet is one of the inner circle of the P.M.A. official- sacrifices. I don’t have to tell you how dis- appointed many of us were.

I. Vol. 1, No, 14. Price, 2 cents. By ROBERT KENT The small town newspaper exercises an important influence on the Amer- ican masses. Intimately acquainted with conditions in the particular lo- | cality, such papers are read atten- tively within the neighborhood, end on local issues often carry more weight than the large metropolitan newspapers read by the same people. ‘The average small town or neigh- borhood newspaper is well controlled not only by the local politicians and businessmen, but gthrough generous ads also by large utility corporations. Initiation of revolutionary small town or community newspapers, as exemplified by “The Queensboro Voice,” is an important step in rally- ing the masses in outlying localities to activities in the class struggle. Though new in the field, the “Voice” appears to have already grip- | ped the interest of the workers in that community by ferreting out the local news of the class struggle. This in contrast to the method used by boss-publications of this character which run columns on social events and doctored articles flattering social figureheads and ward-heelers, The “Queensboro Voice,” dated September 25th, carries on the front page and on the inside, too, stories of a series of strikes in that vicinity, especially shoe strikes, written by workers who are out on strike. It means that the workers are reading this writing for it. A notable achieve- ment, indeed, for this young publi- cation. The main story on the front page exposes Jim-crowism in the St. Johns Hospital. There is a large Negro population in Long Island City and vicinity, and it is to the credit of the editorial board that it is alert not only in the newspaper sense of “scooping” important stories, but from the political angle by fighting against discrimination against the Negro workers in that locality. » Its editing, make-up and intimate style of writing can be followed with profit by other revolutionary publi- cations of this character. It estab- lishes a friendly and neighborly re- lationship with the reader. Some of its features, “Seeing Be- hind Headlines,” a resume of inter- national news from the class angle, “The NRA At Work Here and There,” “International Labor Defense News,” and “X-Rays” are excellent.
