NEW YORK LABOR WARS
Criminal Band Leaders Confess
Crimes 70 District Attorney

The stories which frightened band
leaders are daily telling Assistant At
tcrney Breckenridge at New York as a
result OF the confession of "Dopey
Benny" Fein are fast developing into
a recital OF professional terrorizing
that has forced Fein's story into prac-
teal insigniiicanee.
The throwing of bombs and the
binding Of highly paid workers with
sulphuric acid In the fierce labor wars
of the past few years are only some
OF the things learned about through
the now confessions.
The investigators learned that Fein
with his boasted $40 900 a year In
earnings was as nothing compared to
other leaders willing to take more
desperate chances and consequently
capable of demanding higher prices.
These were the men who conducted
their operations in such way as to
throw scuspicion toward the BLACK
Hand and other such organizations.

Massacre Of Armenians
The Russian consul in Van reports
the wholesale massacre Of Armenians
by kurds and Turks, the number
killed being in excess of 5000.
News dispatches from Persia,
Armenia and Transcaucasia, in Rus

that the position OF the Armenians In
Turkey as well as in northwestern
Persia was one OF grave danger, but
no message has conveyed any indi-
caticn of such extensive massacreing
as does this report to London. II IL
