and controls the destiny of the Morris
Paper Mills. Leopold, Jr., had made
many visits to this small town when

which he used to visit. The only opin-

visitors pass thru the factory OF.
by Nathan Leopold, senior, father
the Franks slayer. Two Chicago job
bers asked Beckwith to show them
thru the factory today but he refused
claiming he did not want to divulge
secret processes there. 1t is under
stood that the reason why the Morris
Company is so suspicious appears to
be that the family of the degenerate
killer is afraid to let the newspapers
know under what slave driving, very
monotonous, and i'll paid work the
Leopold employees suffer as the price
of the Injuries enjoyed by the per-
verified son.
The DAILY WORKER has an ap-
pointment with Mayor Fessler Thurs
day morning and will ask him to take
a stand on the bad conditions found In
the Leopold factory.
Nathan Leopold, junior, has visited
Morris with his father and Leopold
juniors elder brother. who was an
idle roustabout, was made to work"
in the factory by his father to cure his
wild money spending ways. The elder
son had good time flirting with the
girls but got tired of the grind in
three weeks and bid his fathers
slaves goodbye so he could spend the
profits made from the low paid en-
ployes.

and cynical lounge lizard,

time pet of the idle rich.
Ground JOY Out Of Youth
But the citizens of Morris are bitter
against Nathan Leopold, not because
he is the father of a brutal slayer, but
because he has ground the JOY out Of
youth, the energy. the fresh and inno-
cent girlhood out Of 500 of the towns
young people.
II have been working here three
years." one pretty young girl who inn
pressed one as having been taken out
of high school at an early age, said to
the DAILY WORKER, "and after three
years / earn snst as much a / did
when started and that is IS dollars
a week" This girl told Of the break
neck speed required, the long ten
hour day with only few minutes for
lunch, of the extremely poor pay and
the absolute certainty that the scale
will not be increased.
At the WhIm of Leopold.
For years the profits ground out of
these young workers have been hand
ed over to the whims of the thrill
seeking family of Leopold. The girls
are refined looking, bright and young,
but they have been absorbed into the
damnable open shop, anti-union fac
tory system of the Leopolds.
There have been many accidents
here" one girl told the DAILY WORK
Err. I'VE must be continually on our
guard to see that our fingers are not
crushed in the stitching and cutting
machines. The girls set day work
rate of twan.y cents an hJl-, and the
men wnc do exactly III .,same kind Of
work get :: Cay rate % tiv': cents an
hour mors.'
Profits For Degenerates
The Leopold machines, huge and re-
lentless, grind on, extracting the life
blood from the citizens of Morris, and
rolling UP the profits for degenerate
and spendthrift family.
Family men, working in the paper
foundry undergo ten hot and
trying hours day. The heat comes
out of the massive boilers and cylin-
ders of the foundry, scorching and
dwarfing the very souls of the men.
And for this, the men who have to
support family, get only three dol
lars, and the most skilled trades only
four dollars a day.
Strikers Starved Back.
A union is not to be tolerated by
the blood-sucklng Leopold. There was
a strike of the caddy department ten
days ago, but the men we're starved
out and had to return to work at re-
duced wage.

are the piece work folders, who, work
ing at a most terrific speed, make less
than Is and often only Is dollars a
week. The plant runs on five and
half days week with ten hour day.
The management has been asked by
the employees many times to pay over
time-but Leopold, no doubt thinking
that his son was in need OF new Red

NEGRO CONGRESS
MEETS TO DEAL
WITH Big ISSUES
Carney Storm Center
as Convention Opens

Especial TO the DAILY WoRkER)
NEW YORK, July 31.-With
a grand opening at Carnegie
Hall here tomorrow evening
will begin what is described as
the biggest Negro convention
in the history of the world"
lasting turnout the entire
month of August, under the
auspices of the Universal Negro
Improvement Association.
The convention is officially
known as the fourth annual in
ternational convention of the
Negro peoples Of the world.
Its further sessions will be at Lib
erty Hall, 12O West 1SSth st. 1t is
announced that Negroes from all
parts of the world will participate in
forming a Negro political union on
an international scale, which might
play an important role in opposing
imperialist rule over colonial peo-
pies.
Plan Negro Political Union
The purposes of the proposed
union, as announced, are:
"This union will consolidate the
political forces of the Negro thru
which the race will express it politi-
cal opinion in America, in the
islands OF. The seas and IN all com
munities where the Negro forms a
part.
The Political Union shall repre-
sent the political hopes and aspira-
tions of the fifteen million Negroes
Of the United States of America on
American questions, domestic to
America, and shall represent the in
terests of the millions of Negroes of
the West Indies in their different
and respective islands affecting do
nestle political questions, and so
also in the scattered communities of
Africa. The union shall have a SYM
pathetic relationship politically.
with Negroes all over the world, but
each country or community will
have its domestic program for the
betterment of the race, in that
country or community.
World Solidarity Is Aim
But the strength of the union
shall be given to any community or
country to politically assist it in
putting over its political program.
AS, for instance, if the Negroes of
America were politically agitating
or working for the passage of any
special measure for the benefit of
the race, the entire strength of the
union would be placed at the dis
posal IF the American section. If
the Negroes of Trinidad desired to
carry out any political measure for
the benefit of that community, the
union would use it's strength in as
sisting them, and so with any COM
munity where the Negroes live
throughout the world
mo longer, therefore, will individ-
ual politicians represent the inter-
ests of the Negroes. but the Negroes

special to tho DAILY woRKER)

especial to the DAILY WORKER)
ATLANTIC CITY, July 31.-
Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of
Labor, arrived here today to
preside over the meetings of
the Executive Council.
Gompers made it quite clear
in an advance statement issued
to the press that the A. F. of L.
would not depart from its moss
grown policy of reward and
punish" during the coming cleo
tons. "Not parties, but prin-
ciples," Is the Gompersian
slogan.
Attempts will be made by
friends of LaFollette to place
the seal of official approval on
the candidacy of aFollette, but
If LaFollette is endorsed it will
be merely as a person and not
as the leader of a potential third
party. Gompers is opposed to
third parties. It is easier to
sell the workers to two parties
than to three.
Gompers stated, that in the
last campaign, the A. F. Of l..
supported candidates on four
different tickets. He claimed
credit for big victory but
where the victory lies nobody
can see unless it be the plenti-
full crop of injunctions that
. have appeared since the last
elections.
That the LaFollette attack on the
st. Paul convention and on the Com
munists was at least partly dictated
by the Wisconsin senator's desire to
find favor In Gompers' eyes was indi-
Gated by the aged labor takers out
spoken approval of the attack. LaFol-
lette's sterling Americanism saved
him from falling into Fosters trap,
declared Gompers.
LaFoIlette In the Empire state
NEW YORK, July 31.-The August
is meeting of the state conference for
Progressive Political Action may at
tempt to endorse Governor Smith for
governor to succeed himself. The
socialists have tried to forestall this
development by placing DR.. Thomas
in the field but the Tammanyites who
control the G. P. P. A. in New York,
have no more use for Thomas than
they have for the Imperial Wizard of
the Ku Klux Khan.
The national leaders of the LaFol-
lette movement are urging the New
York followers to make strenuous ef-
forts to put the Empire State behind
the Badger senator. The feud be-
tween Hylan and Hearst is a factor
in the situation. The National Demo-
cratic campaign committee is urging
Smith to run, hoping that his per-
sonal popularity would place New
York in the Davis column. II Smith
runs it is considered likely that .Hy-
Ian might be induced to show his love
for the governor by running against
him with the backing of Hearst and
LaFollette. Such a development
might bring the yellow publisher in
to the LaFollette camp. So far,
Hearst has not openly endorsed
Bob" but he is giving him front page
publicity.

freckles, has a part that permits him
to show all his many-sided personali-

goats and chickens, he works at
everything from writing editorials to
running the press.
