pitcher in the Missouri Valley Con-
ference. hurting eleven complete
games and winning all. He has not
pitched a losing game this season.

WANT TO FIRE
DAUGHERTY
Both Parties Want Him to
Quit His Job
THE VERACITY OF HIS CLAIMS
OF INNOCENCE DOUBTED
BY~GENERAL PUBLIC
His Friends Fear An Investigation OF
His Rotten Record and Are Try
ing in Every Way to Block It's
Accomplishment

Washington, D. C.-For once Con-
gress is voicing popular demand,
Daugherty must go! Everybody
wants the oil-bespattered Harry M.
Daugherty to resign from the cabinet
except Harry M. Daugherty .. = :. and,
of course, Super-dick William j.
Burns. The Democrats are calling
loudly for the head of the Republican
attorney general. The Republicans
themselves are anxious to get rid OF
him. Daugherty grimly hangs on,
sticking his fingers up to his nose at
enemies and friends alike. He is in
nocent, he protested! But alas, such
is the reputation of the exalted at
torney general than none will believe
him.
A side from the strictly party
purposes of the coming presidential
campaign, the principal reason why
the capitalist politicians of both
parties want Daugherty to go is that
he has Contributed to the public dis
illusionment," as the New York Times
puts it. AS a result of the notoriety
brought on by his exploits the whole
stinking rottenness of the Federal
Department of Justice" has been ex-
posed to public smell.
Working men and women all over
the country are also demanding that
Daugherty be removed from his pres
ent position, but their reasons are not
quite those of the old-party politi-
clans. The workers object to Daugh-
erty on fundamental class issues.
But the workers have a deeper
quarrel with Mr.. Daugherty-which
is at the same time a quarrel with
many of the gentlemen who are now
hurriedly endeavoring to dissasociate
themselves from him. From the very
beginning, Daugherty has personified
the fundamental class character of
the so-called Department of Justice.
He has devoted himself wholehearted-
ly to the task of shielding the i'll
gotten gains of capitalism on the one
hand and prosecuting labor on the
other.
The old-guard Republicans have
been blocking every move to investl-
gate the conduct of the attorney gen
erals office under the regime of
Daugherty and Burns. If fair hear
ing is given the evidence, the country
will learn how Daugherty happened
to attempt to break the railway shop
mems strike by his injunctions and
propaganda; why his stool pigeons
were discovered here and there and
everywhere in American industry,
plotting and intriguing with big cor
porations. The gunner in industry
will be reviewed and their relations
with Daugherty's office will be
traced.
Daugherty's record is so rotten that
even the members of his own party
are afraid of a hearing. The work
ers' memory is not so short, however,
that the issue can be obscured so
easily. Daugherty must go! And
not only Daugherty, but everyone re-
snonsible for his regime.

World Labor Helps
German Workers
(BY Federated PresS(

Berlin-Over 100000 have been
raised by the labor folk of the world
through the International Workers
Relief since Oct. to lessen distress
in Germany, according to General
Secretary Willy Muenzenberg. Until
the end of May it will be necessary to
raise money, monthly, to keep up the
various feeding kitchens. According
to a cable from the American branch,
the workers of America will assume
100000 of this sum.
Some $4,000 German workers or
members of their families are receiv-
ing at least one square meal per day
as a result of this international help
from more fortunate workers in other
parts of the world. There are COM
mittees in practically every civilized
country of the world. Holland has
perhaps the most perfect organiza-
ton, the U. S. A. the strongest finan-
cially. One of the best centers for
the work is Russia, where the work
ers, gratefully remembering how the
international Workers. Relief came to
their aid in 1921 and 1922, are now
eagerly collecting for their German
brothers and sisters.
Besides having established a chain
of feeding kitchens in Berlin and
other centers, the international Work
ers Relief maintains a children's rec
reation home on the Baltic, a number
of children's day homes in Berlin, and
sewing rooms where poor housewives
can mend their clothing under expe-
rienced guidance and with the aid of
sewing machines. Soon a free med
ical advice station is to be installed.

Washington, D. C.-The old guard

Things would not be so serious if

parties to looting the nations re-

In the senate, the agents of priv

This was said once too often last

Caraway in a speech that was mark
ed by withering sarcasm.

ner in which the committee to inves-
tlgate the attorney general was Sc
Iected. The old guard wanted the
committee appointed by the presiding
officer of the senate. The progressive
element wanted the committee select
ed from the floor of the senate.
The old guard then assumed it's
favorite pose when cornered "To not
let the presiding officer appoint this
on his integrity; it would be discour-
teous," they said.
This had no effect on the progress
slves, who announced that the COM
mittee would be chosen from the
floor. The old guard had to accept
the bitter dose. Senator La Toilette
nominated Senator Brookhart as
chairman. The other members of the
committee are Messrs. Moses and
Jones, representing the administra-
ton party, and Messrs. Robinson and
Wheeler, representing the minority
party.
This incident is most significant.
1t indicates how impotent the old
guard has become.
