third party dominated by the petty
bourgeoisie. There is no mystery
in the fact that they single out par
ticipation by the Communists in the
June 18th convention for particular
attack. The presence of the Com
munists-the driving force in the gen.
uine labor party movement-assures
that real fight will be made for the
formation of national party on a
class basis, dominated by the workers
and poor farmers This is what the
capitalists and their labor agents fear
the most. This is why they are MAX
ing such fight against the Com
munists in connection with this con-
vention."
This revolutionary organ, edited
nominally by Earl R. Browder, but
really by Foster, puts it up to the
militant" or revolutionary workers
as the biggest issue of the hour. They
are warned to make the fight for the
June II convention the biggest issue
in the labor movement" which is
another way of saying that bona fide
labor issues are to be sabotaged to
suit the plans of the disrupters and
revolutionists.

CITY AIDS BOSSES
IN CHICAGO
STRIKE

Chicago. - The Chicago federation
of labor has appealed for funds to aid
$500 garment workers who have been
on strike for ten weeks against dress
manufacturers The unionists de-
mand 10 per cent wage increase,
44-hour week and collective bargain
ing.
Because Of the brutality of injunc-
ton judges, the police and the en-
ployers' thugs, the strike has brought
the trade union movement of this city
to the support of these girls. The en-
ployers are backed by every anti
union element in Cook county. The
notorious injunction judge, Denis f.
Sullivan, is fining and jailing the
strikers when they treat his infamous
orders with contempt. He denied the
girls the right to picket and he found
26 girls guilty of contempt of court
in 20 minutes Ninety strikers have
been fined $4,000, and over 500 strik-
crs have been arrested by city police
and private gunmen.
The leading spirit in this terror
campaign against girls is Dudley Tay-
lor, attorney for the Employers As
!, sociation. who is acting as aid to
States Attorney Grove and Injunc-
tion Judge Sullivan. Taylor has the
freedom of Groves office.

was a job for old folk, for old men
edging toward the grave into which
they were to blast a superannuated
neghbor.
Such. according to confession and
a triple murder charge. was the de-
cision of patriarchs of this little town
when they assembled and conspired
to annihiIate the village smith, hated
and feared recluse. about whom had
grown a dark. medieval legend of
menace.
Three elders. leading citizens of Los
Olives. are awaiting trial at Santa
Barbara for the death of ]. J. Nc

hermitage last December.
Accused Are Wealthy
The accused are w. F. Crawford.
20. and Taylor Downs. rs, wealthy
ranchers, and the latter's son, Will
liam H. Downs, 50, postmaster.
Arrests were made only recently
when Harvey Stonebarger staggered
the town by confessing, according to
District Attorney Clarence Ward, that
he and the trio facing trial had
planned the death of Mcclure follow
ing a lethal lottery in which many
oldsters had participated. He con-
firmed his story at the preliminary
hearing, securing States evidence i'm
munity.
Supporting testimony revealed a
strange tale of village fury and re-
peated nocturnal debate by commun-
ity leaders on how they might elm
mate theiT execrated townsman,
too often upon the women and chill
dren.
The aged smithy had become a
dread He lived alone in a little hut
at the edge of town. Irascible, eccen-
tfic, fumed' with the sulphurous glow
of his forge. his rheumy eyes blazed
with evil portent. so the village Cos
sip went.
Feared as an Ogre
Women spoke of how Mcclure had
molested them. using profanity and
threats. Children whimpered of hav-
ing been frightened. Some of these
children in turn INDUCED that fearful
nagging of those they mark for ogres,
so like the harassment of witches in
elder times.
Attempts were made to persuade
him out of town. He. feeling himself
the abused, would not go. On one oc-
casion, according to residents, he
threatened to kill Postmaster Downs
and his family, fiourishing a pistol.
That got him ninety days in Jail for
disturbing the peace.
Again his smithy bellows Kissed de-
f1ance, and to the knell of hammer on
anvil gossip tanner the civic fury
anew With nothing to lay a legal
finger upon, the towns patriarchs de-
termined to sit in grim judgment upon
him
A death lottery was called. The
citizen getting the fatal slip was to
shoot Mcclure, so Stonebarger's con-
fession ran. Young men were ex-
GUIDED. This was no time for hot ado
descent passions, but for the grave de-
liberation of senescense. But the very
timors of age frustrated the lottery.
The man elected told his wife, and
she would let him shoot.

With a definite request made for
a second primary for the commits

which will put the News in the hands

greater Importance from the fact that
besides delivering the newspaper it
is regular route for first class mail.
Letters posted in Winston Salem or

arrive in Boone at 8 the same morn

From a point of mail service we
have been practically isolated from

ment of the News in making this
arrangement with the Federal gov
ernment have rendered this section
