Use BARE HANDS
To BPE.'I OUT
OF COUNTY JAIL
Prisoner Twisted Bar and Escap-
ed Through Hole
LEFT IN EARLY EVENING
Young Norwegian Sentenced to Wind
sor for Larency Finds Easy
Way to Liberty

Another prisoner leaked out OF the
Bennington county Jail Wednesday
evening. He didn't wait until the
small hours of the morning but made
his getaway in the early evening SO
that he might have the remainder OF
the night in which to beat 1t into
parts unknown.
The latest addition to the list OF es-
capped prisoners who have demon
strated that the modern steel" outfit
is almost as good as wooden bird
cage, is r. r. Raynerston, Norweg-
ian youth of % years who was SEN
fenced on Tuesday to not more than
three or less than two years at Wind
sor for grand larceny.
Raynerston is little fellow, not
more than feet inches in height
and weighing less than hundred and
twenty pounds. Small as he is, how
ever, 1t is difficult to understand how
he managed to squeeze his body
through such small aperture in the
grating
The prisoner escaped from the cor
ridor. Standing on the steam heating
pipes he twisted one of the bars from
its lower fastening and made hole
that measured IA inches by 8 inches
wide at the bottom and not over 6
inches wide at the top.
After making his way through the
opening Raynerston must have
crawled over the top OF the cage to
the rear of the Jail. Thereafter his
escape was easy.
Raynerston was known to be in the
at o'clock. The jailor, A. w.
Russell, went to the opera house for
the second picture and Mrs. Russell
passed the evening sitting on the
front porch listening to the band con-
cert. When Mr.. Russell returned
from the opera house he made his
usual nightly inspection of the jail
and found that Raynerston was miss
ing The jailor put in the remainder
of the night telephoning to adjoining
towns in the hope of locating Rayner-
ston but without obtaining any clue
to the young fellows whereabouts.
Raynerston was arrested for the
threft of bicycle belonging to Lean
der Jewett of this village. After be-
ing placed in Jail he admitted that he
had rified the Buck lumber camp in
the town of Hoosick and stole mis-
cellaneous lot of plunder.

NE W COMMUNIST
LABOR PARTY OF
AMERICA FORMED
1t Proclaims Sympathy with
Lenine Program
HAS BOLSHEVIST BANNER
Report of Committee on Program Was
Most Radical Declaration
of Principles

Chicago, Sept. 3.-The new Com
munist Labor Party of America adopt
ed platform today after wrangling
nearly all day over the phraseology.
1t declares the party in full harmony
with the revolutionary working class
parties of all countries and stands by
the principles stated by the third in
ternational program adopted at Mos
COW, Russia. Other planks in the
platform read:
I'VE fully recognize the crying need
lof an immediate change in the social
system. The time for parleyiug and
compromise has passed and now it is
only question whether the full pow
er remains in the hands of the eapi-
talist or the working class.
THE Communist Labor Party of
America has as it's ultimate aim the
overthrow of the present system of
production in which the working
class is mercilessly exploited, and the
creation of an industrial republic.
wherein the machinery of production
shall be socialized so as to guarantee
to the workers the full social value OF
their toll.
ITO this end we ask the workers to
unite with the Communist Labor Par
ty of America industrially and politi-
|cally in the struggle for the conquest
Iof the State and the powers of gov
|ernment in the establishment of co
operative Commonwealth"
John Reed of New York presented
the report of the Committee on Pro
gram and Labor. which was said to be
the most radical declaration of prin-
ciples ever issued by political party
in this country The lengthy docu-
ment is said TO have been largely cop
led from the program of the Soviet
Republic of Russia Action on the re-
port was deferred until tomorrow.
There are fifty-seyen varieties OF
Socialism and perhaps more than
that" he said, "but there is only one
kind of Bolshevism and the world is
having hard time to stomach that.
Communism knows no race. nation.
breed, or creed. We've got to get the
word communism in the name some
place"

especially those unable to attend the
conference and in case any state has
existing or pending laws that tend to
check the profiteering evil these will
be sent to the committee for inspect
ion and guidance.
AT present some states have anti
trust laws some have legislation that
controls cold storage houses; others
have laws dealing with unlawful com
binations, etc. II is planned by the
Attorneys General TO make every eff
fort to have passed laws that will be
the same in every state, and thus en-
able them to take concerted action
