IS
TO APPEAR FOR
COURTS DECREE
Called for Sentence on
Christmas EUe
tspseIaI 70 Ths DaIIy worker,

ST. JOSEPH, Mich, Dec. 10.
Judge Charles E. White has
issued an order directing c. &.
Ruthenberg, whose conviction
of criminal syndicalism was af-
firmed by the supreme court of
the state, to appear in court on
Wednesday, Dec, "a, for sem
tence.
Meanwhile Attorneys Frank P.
Walsh and l. e. Ferguson, for the de.
Tense have submitted motion to the
supreme court of Michigan asking that
the mandate to Judge White to SEN
tence Ruthenberg be withdrawn for
the purpose of permitting the defense
to submit motion for rehearing in
the supreme court on issues which
the defense believes were not met by
the opinion Of the supreme court
This motion will be decided on Tues.
day, the day before Judge White. has
ordered Ruthenberg to appear for
sentence.
Should the supreme court decide
against the motion Of the defense
Judge White will be empowered to
sentence Ruthenberg and order his i'm.
mediate Imprisonment.
Should he follow this course the de.
tense would be obliged to go to the
supreme court of the United States
with bill Of exceptions and ask for
bail from that court, which would how.
ever involve some weeks during
which Judge Whites sentence to i'm.
prisonment would hold.
The case will eventually be appealed
to the supreme court, the question at
issue being whether Ruthenberg will
be compelled to begin serving his
sentence before action by the supreme
court can be secured.

ALASKAN SNOW STORM
COMES DOWN OUT OF
The NORTH WITH CHILL

The long heraIed ALASKAN snow
storm" arrived in Illinois yesterday,
creeping over the midwest in it's
southwark and eastward course.
Telephone and telegraph wires
were broken down, and traffic In
many places was paraIyzed.
Near zero Temperature prevailed,
making the suffering of the large
number of unemployed workers In
Chicago acute. Many homes Of the
workers were freezing cold yester-
day, those who have been unable to
find work being without fuel.
Hundreds of shade trees and
telephone poles were snapped by
weight Of the Ice and snow. Com
merciaI wire companies had hum
dreds Of Ilnemen working thruout
the state in an effort to re-establlsh
communication in the storm area,
but the broken poles made resump-
ton Of normal conditions Impos-
sible.

INSURANCE CO.
SPO|LS ATTACK
AGAINST LABOR
Shows Bomb Planted to
Collect Good Money

Labor troubles" were quick
ly given by the papers as the
reason for dynamite bomb ex-
plosion in the chiIdren's dress
factory of the Shraiberg Manu-
featuring Co., Chicago.
The proprietor recalled that
he cut wages, dismissed some
white girls and taken on colored
workers. The story looked good
to the capitalist press.
But it was spoiled by the hardboil-
ed insurance companies who had Irv-
ing Shraiberg, one of the partners, ar
rested. The companies thought ia
Dor bombers" good gag for the pub
lie but they had facts that made them
hesitate to pay Shraiberg cold cash
on his generous bombing and fire in
surance policies.
The stock in the dress making shop
was worth $4,000, according to deputy
state fire marshal McNally. The in
surance policies carried face value
Of $4,000. The result of little prob
lem in arithmetical ratio was the ar
rest OF the heavily insured employer
on charge Of causing the explosion
in order to collect insurance. His
good friend Samuel Ablin was greet
ed by the police with a charge Of ma
licious mischief. being held as the
planted Of the bombs.

This is added proof that the left
wing in the unions, the basis of Com
munist activity and the army of the
Trade Union Educational League, in
the long but certain struggle to revolu-
tionize the unions, is an indestructibIe
mass of workers over which leadership
in the daily struggle is both necessary
and possible.
In Local 735 the vote rams as follows;
For general president, Hutcheson,
none; Brown, one; Rosen, the left
winger, 67. For first general vice
president, Cosgrove, one; Walsh, Sc.
There was no opposition to the in
cumbent End vice-president, the gen.
eral secretary or general treasurer, nor
for general executive board member in
the 5th and 7th districts. But the vote
against the administration in the
others ran as follows:
First district; Guerin. none, Null
cahy, 81; second district, Williams,
none, Kelly, 81, Allen, s; third district.

ITALIAN CHAMBER
OF DEPUTIES IN
CLOSED SESSION
Fascist Won't Allow
Giunta to Resign
tspeeIaI to The Daily workerl


ROME, Dec. 19.-Following the ex-
posture in the opposition press of the
crimes OF Fascist leaders, Fascism is
steadily losing ground in Italy. The
socialists and monarchists, are band
ing together to prevent the capitalist
state from going into the hands Of
the Communists, and are advocating a
military dictatorship to replace the
weakening Fascist.
The chamber of deputies is now in
closed session, with many of the op-
position deputies refusing to partici-
pate, and is voting on the law prohibit
ing opposition to Fascism from being
expressed in the newspapers. The law
provides that all opposition editors be
imprisoned for three years and all op-
position newspapers be suppressed for
a period of at least three months.
Deputy Duces has challenged under
secretary OF state Suard TO a duel
following heated argument In the
chamber Of deputies.
Mussolinis position has been shaken
by the act Of the Fascist deputies in
refusing to permit vice speaker OF the
chamber, Giunta, to resign. This places
the full responsibility OF for Giuntas
crimes upon the Fascist. Giunta has
been found TO have instituted an attack
on the life Of one Of the opposition
deputies. Following this act OF Mus
solinis followers. former premier sa,
landra, who has been one OF the lead
crs Of the Fascist, Joined the opposl-
ton In veting against the Fascist.

GREEN'S JOB
MEANS LEWIS
IN CABINET
CoOidge-Lewis-Green
Combine Ahead
Especial to Tho DAILY worksrI


NEW YORK, Dec. 1o.-Wn-
liam Green, secretary-treasurer
of the United Mine Workers Of
America, was chosen president
of the American Federation OF
Labor by the executive council
Of that body meeting here to-
day.
The miners and carpenters
were the leading supporters Of
Green in the council decision.
Green is 81 years old and resides al
Coshocton, Ohio, and has been q
regular" democratic politician for
years. having served two terms as
state senator. He has been a faithful
class collaborationist, drafting a So
called compensation law" for Ohio
which was highly approved of by the
employers as an imitation Of the real
thing in compensation.
An Experienced Labor Faker.
Green has been one Of the most
vicious enemies Of the left wing in
the unions and of the Communists,
leading the attack on William f.
Dunno to expel him from the Portland
convention last year. He has faith
fully followed Gompers in unrelenting
hostility toward Soviet Russia, and
naturally win continue this attitude.
Like all labor takers, Green is a
member Of many fraternaI orders
where they can mix with the petty
bourgeoisie on liquid terms. He be-
longs to the Elks, the Odd Fellows and
the high-sounding American Academy
of Political and Social Science" He
is also Baptist church member and
an old line Bourbon democrat. He
pretended to support LaFollette in the
recent election, but he was more Of a
spy against LaFollette and really
favored Davis.
"HighIy Significant" Says Foster.
1.-THE choosing by the executive
council of the American Federation Of
Labor of William Green, to succeed
Gompers as president Of the A. F. OF
L., is highly significant Of the future
direction of the American labor move
ment," says VIM. 2. Foster, chairman
of the Workers Party and secretary
of the Trade Union Educational
League, in statement to the DAILY
WORKER.
"The council could have elected
John L. Lewis If it had wished to do
so. That 1t elected a miner indicates
clearly that the machine of the United
Mine Workers Union has control.
This being the case, Lewis would nat
urally and additionally have been
first choice. He could, indeed, have
claimed the honor for himself or pre-
vented Green from getting It," said
Comrade Foster.
Means Lewis VIII Follow Davis.
THAT Lewis allows Green to become
the president OF the American Fedora
ton OF Labor, means that he has a
definitely better job picked out or
promised for himself. It means, in
short, that John l.. Lewis is going TO
be appointed secretary OF labor in the
Coolidge cabinet after March 4.
with Lewis in the government
cabinet at the beck and call of Cool
idge the strikebreaker, and Green as
head Of the A. F. OF L., the Lewis ma
chine win have the American labor
movement--outside Of the revolutions
airy left wing-in its pockets and at
the mercy Of Coolidge and Coolidge

Levin leadership in chicago.

Levin leadership in Chicago.
Aronberg, who ran on the left wing
ticket against Levin. stated that the
voting would end yesterday and the
ballots would be counted later.
1.-THE administration officials launch
ed campaign of terrorism to drive
the membership away from the polls, "
he said. particularly were they
anxious to prevent the left wing from
presenting its policies and its candi-
dates for consideration by the men,
bership. The only result is to reduce
the number Of those voting"
Treated Members Like Cattle.
"In order to shut off any chance Of
equal opportunity by the left wing,
they called In their sluggers and beat
up the members who worked for the
left wing candidates." said some of
the militant members who we're dis
tributing sample ballots. "They tried
to drive the members around like cat
tie with guns and blackjacks, as hun
dreds of the members know and as
proved by the wounds Of those now
under doctors care"
Clearly, the revolutionary wing is a
power when it so frightens the ad-
ministration that It resorts to such
desperate measures which are certain
to lose in the long run.
Shops Demanded Protection.
That the membership is intesely
resentful Of this rule of their union
by gangsters and autocrats who shove
the maround and have no reply to
make to the policies advocated by the
left wing but violence. is shown by
many developments of the election.
Some shops refused to go to the union
halls for voting, unless they were
guaranteed protection from the adj
ministration's sluggers and allowed
free choice of candidates.
The chief results 0 fthe official ter
rorism are the probable reduction of
the aggregate vote over the vote two
years ago, and the thoro arousing Of
the membership against the violent
and autocratic administration.

LEE QUONG AGAIN UP
ON NARCOTICS CHARGE
Chinese Merchant, Under $4,000
Bonds in Similar Cases,
Rearrested.

A chinese merchant named Lee
Quong, giving his age as 60, under
bond of $4,000 in four cases of al
legged violations of the Harrison mar
cotic law, was arrested this morning
on a similar charge. His arrest fol-
lowed that of Ho Bak Pang, thirty
six. laundryman, at 213 Indiana
avenue. in whose possession the po-
lice allege the finding of packages
of tea in which opium is alleged to
have been secreted.
Pang was asleep in a rear room at
his establishment when Revenue
Agent Joseph Murphy and Lieut..
Cornwell and Detectives Cole and
Dowd reached there shortly after
o'clock. The door was forced and
Pang arrested. 1t was because he
said he had purchased the contents
of the box at 325 Pennsylvania
avenue. it is stated. that the raiding
party visited the latter address.
Lee Quong had received so many
visits from the police the past few
weeks that he had become accustomed
to their calls. He offered no objec-
ton to being arrested, members of
the raiding party stated, and soon
was in the police station conversing
with his Chinese friend. 1t is charged
that toy of opium was found in
Quong's room.
