N. (. A. and Lusk Laws
To prevent the teaching of history
from any textbooks, Excepting those
written from the so-called "Ameri
can" viewpoint, the History bill was
introduced in the New York legisla.
ture. That Bill was killed by the
single-handed fight of Local No. s.
while the N E. A sat by with folded
hands. The N. E. A. took no action
to have the Lusk Laws repealed. The
N. =. A. did not raise finger to pre-
vent the attacks on the Rand school
in 1919. The N. E. A. has blocked
uniform salary legislation, which
would give the same salary to a
teacher who has not been able to
raise himself, by means of political
Vaccinations, to the teaching of a
higher grade, as to the teacher who
has been willing to put scruples aside
Such law the N. E. A. characterized
as frank Bolshevism."
AS president Of the N. e. A., David
Hunter did his best to undermine the
teachers tenure-of-offce rule, in spite
of the fact that teachers everywhere
heartily sanctioned it. The N. E. A.
has worked hard to break up teach
ers' unions. Since its very inception,
the N. E. A. has been tremendous
force for reaction.
Teachers Demand Voice
Underlying the projects of the
teachers union is the idea that teach
ers should have the controlling voice
in teachers affairs, and that the man
agement at present imposed from
above by politically-manipulated
boards and big manufacturers must
be abolished.
The influence exerted by such
boards was seen in the proposal made
last year in New York that free den
tai clinics for the use OF school chill
dren be done away with, because OF
the loss of prestige the use of such
clinics might cause the dental pro-
fession.
Legislation advocated by the Amer
lean Federation of Teachers includes
child labor law. The women's equal
rights bill, the federation opposes on
the ground that 1t aims simply to
destroy the opportunity for special
legislation protecting women, and
that It is one more subterfuge of man
ufacturers' associations.

Especial to The DAILY WoRKER.)
BOLOGNA, Italy, June 30.-Three
workingmen have been kidnapped by
Fascist militia and only one of them
has returned. Two that have been
missing for ten days are believed to
have been slain.
The third, Maccaferri, a wounded
veteran of the world war with two
silver medals, has come back after
FIVE days imprisonment in a lonely
place almost dead from exhaustion
and the effects of the severe beating
which the Fascist gave him.
The three workers had made re-
marks against the Fascist for their
murder of the Socialist deputy Mat
teotti. Maccaferri said that this bru-
tai killing was one of the worst
crimes yet committed by the Fascist.
Several of the national militia" Fas-
cist thugs, overheard him but did
nothing then.
At night four of these men seized
the worker in blanket and took him
far out of the city. They demanded
the names of the members of his
branch of the Free Italy and Socialist
societies, which he refused to give.
Then he was frightfully beaten and
held for five days.

DEM DELEGATES
LEAVE WARM
MAMAS" COLD
Cuties Strike for Square
Deal and Meals

Especial to the DAILY WoRKER)
NEW YORK, June 3d. Being a
reception committee to the Democrats
is the bunk" shouted forty-eight we'll
trained cuties as they went on strike
on Coney Island demanding square
deals and squarer meals, shorter bath
ing suits and more attention from the
newspapers.
The forty-eight had been hired by a
representative Of the National Demo
cratic Club to entertain the delegates
and alternates of Democracy who on
Manhattan Island are enjoying them
selves and nominating a candidate for
president.
Each girl was supposed to represent
a particular one of the forty-eight
states. They were to get s35 week,
room in a good hotel, excellent tele-
phone service and good grub.
After signing on the dotted line and
agreeing to defend democracy to the
best of their ability, they were taken
out to Coney, Island where they
staged parade in their one-half per
cent bathing suits.
After the parade they\were fed ham
sandwiches and told to gang up and
sleep in three bed rooms. That is, all
forty-eight were to sleep in the three
hotel rooms.
The diet of ham sandwiches con-
tinued for several days and then was
changed to corned beef. They hadn't
gotten a single picture in single pa
per and no one had called them on
the phone.
Finally, the little ladies grew dis
gusted at being compelled to try and
lure the delegates astray from the
vast distances of Coney Island and
went on strike.
They hadn't had any thing to drink
for a week. And besides the ladies
who were representing each of the
forty-eight states came out and adj
mitted they were homesick being kept
so far from Broadway for such long
time
The last courier to struggle thru
the lines from Coney Island reported
the girls had taken jobs in dance
hall to earn the price of carfare back
to civilization.
Emissaries of Tammany Hall adj
mitted that the girls who had been
sent to Coney Island had been COM
pletely forgotten in the rush of en-
tertainment on Manhattan Island.

party, there would be about as many
Of the one as of the other"
Mr. Davis had to catch train in a
hurry.
Only Interested in "The Now"
Robert w. Bagnall, forceful Negro
speaker, as the next speaker, calmly
announced that 1--WE are not interested
in backgrounds and ancestry; we are
interested in what man thinks and
does now, and we regret that we have
received no answer to our letter re-
questing statement Of position on
the Ku Klux Khan"
Mr.. Baknall spoke Of the deep
changes that are going on in the Ne
groes' life as evidenced by the great
migration to the North. The Negro,
he said, is tired of robbery, tired of
lynching, tired of peonage, tired Of
denial of education.
He is tired of the fact that he has
no safety and no liberty, and having
tasted the elixir of freedom he stays
in the North and will never be con-
tent without it. He may go back
South, but others return with him,
and he does not go back a second
time.
The Negro And the War
"The president" said Mr.. Bagnall,
referring to Wilson, told Negro
regiment during the war, out of this
conflict you are to expect full citizen
ship rights such as are accorded all
citizens The American Negro went
to France, and there he experienced
the same treatment from the Ameri-
can military as he had received at
home. After his return, and while
still in uniform, the Negro found
worse treatment than he had received
before.
"Out of this experience came the
New Negro who has ceased to have
patience and is determined to fight
and strive for real liberty. He is tired
of the hypocrisy of those who say If
you will only wait; he is no longer
willing to beg, and he leaves the
South for the North, where, if he does
not find full equality, he finds at least
a foothold."
The rebellious spirit of the dele
gates was only added to by a speech
of Judge Ira w. Jayne, a white lib
eral Republican" of Detroit, contain
ing some cold analysis of the history
of the so-called emancipation of the
Negro, and no defense whatever of
the Republican party.
Lawyer Hits Coolidge
A terrific attack was made by
Shelby J. Davidson, Negro lawyer
of Washington, d. c., upon the
Coolidge administrators present poll
cy of forcing segregation and intoler-
able humiliation upon government en-
ployes Of Negro blood, who are slow
ly being eliminated by fair means or
foul. Eft per cent Of the Negro
elericai workers." he said, "are being
dismissed while twenty per cent of
white employees are being dismissed"
Davidson told of warning Secretary
Of the Treasury Mellon that the
Negroes are sure to undertake politi-
cal reprisals upon the Republican
party because of Melons policy of
making it impossible for Negro cleri-
cal workers to continue their employ
ment, and because of Weeks policy
of systematic manipulation of the
civil service tests so as to exclude
Negroes from among the 5000 new
Office workers employed for the bonus
bureau.

Washington, Mr.. Davidson wildly ex-

Govt Insurance Explained
to Ex-Service Men
Veterans Bureau Representative Gave
Instructive Talk at Legion Meet
ing Tuesday

The regular monthly meeting of
Robert Swift Post, American Legion,
was held at the Community Club
rooms Tuesday evening. All ex-ser-
vice men had been urged to attend
this meeting as it was to be addressed
by S. A. Warren, Insurance Repre-
sentative of the U. S. Veterans Bur-
eeaus who was scheduled to set forth
information relative to War Risk In
surance and converted policies avail
able to former service men through
the governments provisions for term
insurance.
At $50 the ladies of the Auxiliary
and the ex-service men present were
served an oyster stew, with trimmings,
by the local Legion Post. Just be-
fore being seated at the table those
assembled stood at attention for one
minute in silent tribute to the mem.
Dry. of Ex-president Wilson, who as
President of the United States dur
ing the World war and also Com
mander-in-chief of the boys who
fought for Uncle Sam in that war.
: The "eats" were excellent and
thoroughly enjoyed. Immediately
following the meal the gathering adj
journed to the regular meeting room
Of the Legion and Mr.. Warren began
his address on the subject of gov
eminent insurance without wasting
any time on preliminaries. Mr.. War
rem is not an orator but he talks
straight from the shoulder and it is
easy to understand just what he is
talking about. The time was limited
because most of those present wished
to attend the basket ball game to be
played betwene the Little Falls ALL
Stars and Sank Centres Legion
team, which was scheduled to start at
$3.50 p. m. However, in the short time
available Mr.. Warren, himself an ex-
service man, explained the various
phases of the insurance offered by
the government to veterans of the
World War and answered all the
questions that were put to him. We
believe that every one present left
the meeting with great deal clearer
conception of what tn government
Insurance really is. 1t is impossible
to cover the many phases of that SUBJ
ject in this article but we have made
arrangements to secure data on this

publish this information in the Her
