Speedy Action

PITTSBURGH, Pa, August
28.-At last the Pittsburgh la
Dor movement is going in the
right direction to rid itself Of
the notorious stool pigeon and
labor spy, Robert w. Beattie,
now president of the labor bank
here and secretary Of the Pitts
burgh Central Labor Union.
But this was not done until
the local branch of the Trade
Union Educational League had
written a leaflet asking the
rank and file how long it in

who were in the paid employ
of their worst enemy, the boss.

After three hearings of the trial

case might receive.in trade union pub.
locations. This was too much for the
delegates to swallow, although Hick-
ey, president of the Central Labor
Union, and Nelson, acting secretary,
did their best to have the resignation
accepted.
In the discussion that followed dele
gates stated that they were under in.
structions from their local unions as
a result of the t. U. E. l.. leafet, and
that the membership demanded action.
1t was pointed out that not only Beat

burgh was on trial before the workers
of this country. Nelson did not lis

in May, when the mayor got $4,000
to put down the strike by tear bombs.
riot guns and other war implements
and when Nelson was shown this
strike-breaking paraphernalia he went
back and demanded that the men call
off the strike.
On the motion to defer action on
Beattie's resignation until the execu-
tive board reports on the charges, his
reactionary friends did not have the
courage to vote for it. The trial SO
far has cost the workers nearly 81, 900,
but it will be worth million to them
to discover and throw out spies who
have stuck to their backs like leeches
and torn down what it took painful
years to build up.

CHICAGO SPEEDS CAMPAIGN WORK

Marley reported that the Foster.
Gitlow meetings were doing remark
ably good work. They attract big
crowds, they get an enthusiastic
response, forcing their way in big
publicity on the front pages of all the
capitalist newspapers, and in general
putting the Workers Party in the posi-
ton of an important political party
in this country.
These meetings are very important
We must organize to make them a
tremendous success. The Chicago
meeting must be made the greatest
meeting of the entire campaign. and
we should work to pack the biggest
hall in Chicago.
I'VE have not given our imagination
enough sway with the tremendous
possibility of these meetings, COM
rades," he said. Everything our can
didates say is ibroadcasted in the
newspapers thruout the country.
Think what significance this will have
in building our party.
81 can report to you that Massa-
chusetts has already succeeded in
getting the necessary signatures and
will be on the ballot. Rhode Island is
on the ballot. New York has a tremen-
dous job but the comrades are work
ing hard. They need 10000 sigma
lures. New Jersey and Pennsylvania
will go on the ballot. Getting Penn
sylvania on the ballot is a big victory
for the party when you consider what
a fight we have had in the coal min
ing districts of the state. Maryland
will go on the ballot. Thru the ac-
tivities of Comrade Ella Reeve Bloor,
Colorado is being swung into line and
we expect that state to report soon
that we will be on the ballot. Wash
ington state is on the ballot"
"And do not forget that the DAILY
WORKER ls the real force In this
campaign. Every oonrade should
buy a bundle Of the campaign issue,
get them Into the shops and fac
tories and give them the widest
possible distribution"

WORKER and new member for the
party is our big task in this cam
paign.
Browder told the gathering that,
with practically no campaign what
ever from January to June, our men,
bership has increased by 5000.
"If we can get such results without
a campaign, just think what we can
do with a well organized and sys-
tematic campaign" he said.
Find Potential Readers.
Browder, in making his plea to the
members to work hard within the
next few months to get new readers
for the DAILY WORKER, said:
THE getting of new members goes
hand in hand with the getting of new
readers to our daily paper. And the
straw vote in the shops can be used
to make new readers for The Daily.
A man who will cast straw vote for
Foster is a potential reader of Our
Daily. l for one can see these straw
votes putting new life into our party"
He urged the comrades to take their
paper more seriously. The Chicago
circulation can be greatly increased
with only a comparatively small
amount of work. The branches must
get on the job and put more energy
into getting subscribers and readers
for the Daily. Every means should be
utilized in this work. Street meetings
should be used to good advantage for
getting subscriptions.
Manley told what is being done ma
tionally TO get the entire party into
the political campaign.
Comrades Working Hard.
"The biggest and most important
Job just now" said Marley. "is get
ting those signatures. Everywhere
the comrades are working hard and
we have some excellent reports of
progress. The task in Illinois is COM
paratively easy alongside what 1t is
in some states. For instance, in ILL
nois we need 1000 as against 10000
that are needed in Ohio.

company sells the coal operators
which is an essential item in the cost
Of coal production, could not be
lowered.
The Central Illinois Public Service
company sells electric energy to 40
southern Illinois towns Practically
all coal mines are operated by its
power. Clayton gave some illuminat-
ing figures on this privately owned
super-power corporation. He said
that operators were producing coal
from 6 to IL cents per ton cheaper
with super-power than with the old
steam method. He did not account
for this saving but since mineworkers
have been given no increase it follows
that this item went into operators
profits.
Since 1918, Clayton said, his com.
pany had spent 100000 in extend
ing their properties and since that de-
velopment it was possible to generate
one kilowatt hour Of electricity with
two lbs. of coal. Before super.power
from IL to 16 lbs. were required. OBJ
viosly grand saving in coal has been
accomplished when the size Of the
corporation is considered and the ex
tent of it's activities. Clayton called
such a saving blessing" but he did
not say to whom. He made it plain
that there could be no reduction in
the price of electric power. The other
cost factors, he pointed out, were
freight and labor. Freight rates could
not be reduced. The railroad repre-
sentatives themselves had said so. He
then implied that the miners ought
to take cut in pay The poverty of
this corporation can be appreciated
by considering that Clayton said that
100000 had already been spent by
it and that his company was ready to
expend that much more to develop as
circumstances require.
Only Miners to Be Cut.
1t was made plain that the miners
alone must take wage reduction so
that business men, lawyers, coal op.
orators, railroads and billion dollar
public service companies can live.
The meeting was attended by about
IS Illinois coal operators, 100 business
men and approximately so coaldiggers
who sat silently thru the first propa-
ganda meeting staged by the coal op-
orators to reduce their wages. The
capitalist press was on hand. Spe-
cial correspondents from Chicago as
we'll as st. Louis were there to dash
off the welcome news. They all lost
in the first round, according to VIM.

Unemployment Acute.
The unemployment situation in the
Herrin field is acute Out of a mem
bership of $4,000 miners 9,170 were
unemployed in the past three months.
Only II OF the AZ mines in that To-

them are working more than few
