Show MussoIin nsgated Murder of Matteott
MUSSOLIM THE REAL MURDERER

1t is much better that he look out for
himself, because some day he will be
with his head broken. He won't have
any right to kick about it after all the
ignoble things he wrote and sub
scribed tot"
On May "a Matteotti spoke in par
Lament with an attack on the fascist
party, saying: you are in power be-
cause you do violence to the sup
pressed will of the Italian people. You
did not permit free elections. You
banished those who would not vote for
fascist after you had beaten them
and killed some for warnings. You did
all you could to win the election and
won only because of that, not because
the Italian people were with you"
"Short Time to Live"
Giunta, vice-president of the cham
Der of deputies and general secretary
of the fascist, tried to beat Matteotti.
The fascist members of parliament
instead of sitting on their proper
majority side of the house were scat
tered among the minority to leap upon
any professors, Matteotti, however
continued his fiery speech.
Rossi remarked: "Well, he will live
only short time. He won't succeed
in getting away"
Three stormy days followed in par
lament. Then there was another con-
ference of fascist leaders,: General
Bendiavenga, Bianci, Rossoni lex
syndicalist in Italy and the United
States), Rossi, De Bono, chief of the
fascist militia and of the secret po-
lice. These men were part of the Ma
tional Council Of Fascist. Mussolini
spoke to them very bitterly of Mat
teotti and the fascist, led by their
blackshirt premier, then commanded
Matteotti to keep silent and not to
stir up the fight of the past year
again.
Italy Flames in Protest.
When the fascist saw that Matteot-
ii remained intent upon exposing them
in the midst of all their black deeds
of violence and grating and crushing
workers, they formed little plot to
make away with him and save them
selves, as they thought. But the peo-
pie of Italy were already stirred to
bitter resentment against the fascist
rule of iron and terror and raised a
tremendous uproar of protest when
Matteotti suddenly disappeared before
the matter of the Sinclair oil conces-
sion was to come up in parliament.
The feeling against the government
Iran high but Mussolini saved himself
fby stripping off his blackshirt at the
moment of his overthrow and repudi-
ating his fascist friends who had been
found implicated in the murder of
Matteotti The sentiment of Italy is
still strongly against the fascist but
the press censorship is so severe that
foreign correspondents can no longer
send out any information or intima-
tion of the seriousness of the situa-
ton.
More News to Come.
This article will be followed by
several more dealing with the specific
exposes of fascist government which
Matteotti published in his pamphlet
and accounts of the criminal bands of
fascist who supported Mussolini and
committed innumerable cruel deeds
as well as enriching themselves by
wholesale robberies. Readers of Italian
will find the original data as published
in I'll Lavoratore" immensely worth
while.

In a spiral manner in such a
way as to combine two separate
and distinct movements into
one.
The first movement has in view the
commune proper, its composition, in
telectual and moral standing, finan-
cial state, close mutual relationship,
common interests which would fuse
the members into one compact whole.
The other movement deals entirely
with objective conditions in Soviet
Russia, with the general trend of pc.
litical and economic affairs of the first
proletarian republic, affecting a close
touch between the commune as a part
and the Soviet Republic as a whole
incorporating the former with the
latter so as to turn the commune into
a functioning organ of state economy
and not merely into a self-sustainine
body.
To Help Russia.
The upward movement has constant
ly kept in view the greater purpose
which is the welfare of entire Russia
the raising of its economic standard
It aimed to render the underlying en-
terprise into a motive power, pro
peller on the economic field as well as
the political.
In order to accomplish this double
purpose two requirements are needed
One necessitated constant guard
over the moral of the old members
and rigid examination of the new
applicants as to their courage, revolu-
tionary zeal and their willingness to
sacrifice personal interests before
justifying their admission in the
group: the other demanded a min
imum material standard. a useful trade
or profession. And so discrimination
became the slogan. A worker equip
ped with the moral weapon neces
sary for the rehabilitation OF Russia
must also possess a minimum materia
requirement amounting TO $4,000, be.
side voyage expenses. Such financial
demand was deemed necessary with
the view Of laying a firm foundation
for a modern dairy and poultry enter
prise, the elaboration OF which re
quired a solid material basis. Elk

Union Head Contractor.

Reactionary trade union officials OF
the bricklayers and cement workers
unions in Chicago, hate caused much
suffering among the members of these
unions, and have betrayed the men
who pay their salary, by permitting
Peter Shaughnessy, president Of Chi
cago Bricklayers' local union, to sell
the men out to construction compa-
MES, union members have informed
the DAILY WORKER.
Shaughnessy, who is large stock
holder in a construction company,
called a strike when a rival construc-
ton company captured a contract
from him. At present the striking
bricklayers must stand by and see
strike breakers holding down their
former jobs under police protection,
while shaughnessy, playing the double
game of union official and construc-
ton contractor, sits back and laughs
at put-up job.
Loses Plum.
Since Michael Faraty, former presi-
dent of the Board of Local Improve
ments Of the city administration, was
taken off and Sloan placed in charge
under the democratic administration,
trouble has been brewing about the
paving of Chicago streets. Heretofore,
the Washington Construction COM
pany of which Peter Shaughnessy is
a large stakeholder, has had the mon
opoly of paving the Chicago streets
and laying the sewers.
Whether or not the bids were high
est or lowest, Shaughnessy managed
to get the contracts for his company.
Times have changed since Sloan was
on the job. and the Washington com
pany is having a harder time to get
the contracts.
The trouble arose when the Board
of Local Improvement ordered the
sewers and basins laid with cement
blocks instead of brick, to cut down
expenses, altho the taxpayers claim
the paving taxes remain as high OF
higher.
One job the writer is familiar with
is the paving Of Addison Street, from
Long Avenue to Naraganset, a job
of ten blocks long. It was on this con.
struction work that Shaughnessy tried
out his power.
It so happened that the White Paw.
ing company, which was under indict.
ment under the Thompson regime for
robbing the city Of many thousands
of dollars, was granted the contract,
and sub-let the laying of the sewers to
the Union Construction company, a
rival Of Shaughnessy's Washington
company.
Union Workers Forced Out.
This Shaughnessy could not stand
for, and called the bricklayers out on
strike two weeks later. The Union
Construction company brought in
strikebreakers. and a fight started
which took a big squad of police to
quell.
To this day the central detail OF
the Chicago police department have
their fnks and sluggers on the job
protecting the union construction com
pany scabs.
What are the business agents and
officials Of tina cement finishers' local
502, the street paving engineers loca
AGA. and the cement workers local 76
which have jurisdiction over this stu
alton doing, to mend matters? Henry
Biehl, business agent of local BOZ, Car,
Miller. business agent and Prod Schilf
president Of local rs. and others
countenance the shady maneuvers Of
Shaughnessy without protest.

"Twice-a-Year" Buying.

10 you buy blouse one week, Il
hat the next, with perhaps a gown, a
pair of shoes and some lingerie on
your list of expenditures month
later? = Then you haven't been con-
verted to the joys and convenicnces
of tWice-a-year buying.
This plan does not mean that you
must buy literally all your clothing
at two stated times during the year;
but il does mean that you should so
buy all your more important garments,
the ones that form the backbone of
your wardrobe. Small accessories, of
course, can be bought from time TO
time
Such twice-a-year buying when
done at the proper times Will not
only enable you to buy more and bet
ter clothes for your money, but will
mean your clothes are almost sure to
harmonize better with each other,
since their purchase is not strung out
over the entire year.
The proper times. of course, are in
the Spring and Fail, for then the gar
ments in the stores are new and fresh,
and you may also be able to take ad-
vantage Of seasonal sales. And you'll
learn to buy just at the psychological
moment, too-neither so early that
styles are not set" and prices are
exorbitant. nor SO late that every
thing is too much picked over.
when YOU do decide it is the best
time 10 buy. buy your outfit for the
entire season.
But twice e-a-year buying, to be sue
CeSsful- must rely upon other means
than the mere element of timelineSS.
1t requires, in addition. an analysis Of
personal needs. "A suitable division of
clothing money so that the wardrobe
Will he we'll balanced. and careful
planning ahead as to what the eX-
penditures should be.
That is why intelligent twice-a
year buving neceSSitates the use of a
clothes budget. ConSidera tion of the
amount you can reasonably afford to
set aside for clothes. and the prob
able expense of the garments YOU will
have to buy at each of the bi-yea"lY y
periods, will tell you how much you
should spend at each time. Analysis
of your needs will mean that your
purchases should depend somrwha
we'll as what YOU expect your social
necessities to be.
Planning ahead" is an important
, phase of twice-a-year buying, which
naturally follows such analysis. Ii
means YOU will not spend too much
money on gown to which YOU have
taken a sudden fancy, with the result
that you must select too-cheap shoes
to accompany it. Neither will YOU
have half dozen dresses. and no APP
propriate hat.

it little nearer. That pond was
growing deeper and at the same time

At last the work on the dam was
finished to suit them. There was
nothing to do now but to wait for
the water to creep near enough to
those trees to make 1t safe for them
to resume the cutting of their food

rested. They took a long sleep. for

About Dates.

One might write fairly large
book about this very popular fruit.
The preparation of such n book
would take us back more than five
thousand years. and the research
would show US kings of ancient

ishine food.
In fact the Garden of Eden
abounds in dates, and it is interest
ing TO know that the food with which
we are SO familiar is linked the do
ings of Adama and Eve.
Then there is literature. shake

reference to dates. and most Of US

One writer makes special note OF
the fact that dates are the only fruit
which enjoys the direct rays of the

that the effect is directly beneficial to

Not for a few. but for many, did

Not only for those who knew and

cause our human wills often run con-

But it is also easy, because Christ
