POSTPONEMENT
OF !. v. v. CASE
AGAIN ORDERED
"Injunctionites" Feel
Anger of Members

The Injunction suit brought
by the Griffith Rowan-BoWer-
man faction in the Industrial
Workers of the World against
Secretary : Treasurer Thomas
Doyle and his following, which
was scheduled to be heard by
Master in Chancery Fred Bern
stein, 100 NJ. LaSalle Street, has
again been postponed until
Oct. 20.
This ! a t e st postponement,
which shelves the Injunction
case until after the l. w. w. spe-
cial convention called for Oct.
|13, was brought about at the
request of William F. Bigelow,
attorney for the wan-Griffith
group, which is apparently re-
spending to pressure of the rank
and file membership to keep the
case out of court.
No lnjunctions For Wobblies.
The membership of the l. w. w.
thruout the country is known to have
registered deep resentment against
the resort to the capitalist courts by
the l. w. w. factions, and it is now
thot the special convention of the or
ganization will fight out the fractional
differences rather than leaving them
to the capitalist courts.
William Guinea, attorney for the
Doyle-Fisher group in the /. w. w. or
ganization, against whom the injunc-
ton has been brought, told the Dali
LY WORKER reporter, it is perfect
ly satisfactory to him to have the in
junction case postponed. 81 am a
great believer in the l. w. w. ironing
out of its own differences" Guinea
told the DAILY WORKER. 1.-THE con-
vention is the place for the fight and
not the capitalist courts. 1t was the
Griffith-Rowan faction which brot the
case into the courts and not the Doyle
Fisher group and l am perfectly will
ing to have the postponement. How
ever, as far as the legal aspect of the
case is concerned, am ready to have
the hearing at once"
Mr. Guinea declared the deporfa-
ton of Pietro Nigra, set for December.
Is disgrace to the country, as Nigra
is in danger of death at the hands Of
the Fascist should he be deported.
He declared that if all else fails. an
effort will be made to have Nigra de-
ported to some country other than
Italy. Guinea gave the DAILY
WORKER reporter six months sub
scription to the DAILY WORKER.
The injunction suit will be reported
back by Master in Chancery Bernstein
to the labor hating Judge Dennis e.
Sullivan IL the l. w. w. factions con-
tinue to fight the case in the capital
list courts. The l. w. w. case has been
placed on the books of Sullivan's
court, the same court which has is.
sued so many anti-picketing injuctions
aiding the employers in time OF
strikes, and Sullivan will have the
final decision to make in the |. w. w.
case.

OF SUSPENDED
/. la. M. MEMBERS
Still Delay B. & O. Plan
Consideration
Especial to The Daily Worker,


DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 30
The two warning groups of re-
dictionaries in the machinists'
convention today patched up
their differences long enough to
cast a united vote against the
appeal of the suspended MEM
bers from Toledo.
The Appeals and Grievance
Committee broughtin a recon-
mendation that the suspended
members be reinstated, revers-
ing the decision of the General
Executive Board. This recon-
mendation was defeated by a
vote of 107 to A.
The machine attempted to have tn,
convention reconsider the right of the
membership to vote on the salary
of the secretary treasurer, at yester-
day mornings session. Board mem
Der Feckner, who was in the chair re-
fused to accept the motion for roll
call, but the delegates over-ruled his
decision, and the question will go to
referendum of the membership.
The delegates yesterday were rest
less and anxious to go home.
Johnston in Vile Speech.
William H. johnston, president OF
the union, descended to the lowest
depths of misrepresentation in his
last minute TRADE against the sus.
pended members. He read a fake tel
egram to the delegates, supposedly
from detective reporting the conven-
ton to the employers, which told
about Johnston being fighter against
the bosses and the progressives being
here to throw him out. He limited
that Andrew Overgaard, who has been
attorney for the suspended members,
was working with the detectives,
wording his speech in such way as
to avoid direct responsibility for his
statements, yet leaving the same i'm
preston with the delegates as tho
he had made the direct charge.
Center Unites With Right.
This vote which unites the center
group Of delegates with the admins
tration is looked upon by many del
egates as a sign that Johnston has
made his peace with them. The Fry
Keppler combination has been punish.
ing Johnston, not for his reactionary
policies with which they agree in sub.
stance, but for reasons Of personal
power and prestige.
Yesterday they voted with the radi-
calls in putting over a reduction of
salaries for officers of $1,000 per year
each. That must have heen the blow
that brought Johnston to his knees to
them, and forced him to al agreement
with the other reactionaries whom he
has been ignoring heretofore.
The b. & o. plan is expected to
come up right at the close of the con.
vehtion. 1t has been rel;giously kept
of the floor of the convention until
the very last moment, first to let all
the rank and file delegates who were

away from the convention, and second

GENEVA, Sept. 26.-The re-.
fusal of Japan to sign the arbi-
tration protocol proposed by
the League of Nations caused
a sensation here today. Japan's
action was entirely unexpected
by the British diplomats who
are the real hackers of the
scheme.
Journalists called to mind the
remarks of George Chicherin,
Soviet Commissar for Foreign
Affairs, last week when he de-
clared that Russia looked upon
the league as an instrument of
capitalist world domination and
not an instrument for peace.
Exposes Leagues Futility.
He also made acid comment on its
futility saying that it could make lot
of noise, but was not taken seriously.
That Japan can treat it with such
ill-concealed contempt does not en-
hance it's prestige in the eyes Of its
pASAobOAJ AACuDCAos
Still at Swords Points.
The capitalist governments. six
years after the termination of the
world war, are still at swords points
and all their efforts to avoid another
war are wrecked on the conflicting In
terests of the individual powers.
Japan's action throws a monkey.
wrench into the plans of Ramsay Mac.
Donald and the British imperialists.
This scheme was cleverly framed.
but the pitfalls did not escape the
sharp eyes of the Mikado's diplomats.
Britain's War Scheme.
The arbitration agreement was to
be part of the general disarmament
scheme fostered by Premier Mac
Donald, of England, and Premier
Edouard Herriot, of France.
France wished arbitration to be ar.
bitrary.
1t was drawn along that line.
Nearly all nations intimated their
willingness to accept the arbitration
protocol. The action by Japan came
as surprise, therefore three League
of Nations commissions were author
lied to make preparations for a dis
armament conference and to draw
up the arbitration protocol. While
Japan has refused to sign the proto-
col, it is believed she will participate
in the disarmament meeting next year.
Whether or not the United States will
take part has not been revealed.
NJ. Adachi, Japanese delegate to the
league meeting. issued a statement
saying:
Declines With Thanks.
ut is with the greatest regret that,
in the name of my delegation, must
register complete reserve from the
complete protocol"
Japan insisted on the creation Of
cancellation jurisdiction which would
enable the losing party in the interna-
tional court TO appeal to the court for
review of the case. Australia op-
posed such move.
The arbitration protocol proposed that
decisions of the international court at
the Hague should be final on questions
of international law.
Tried to Frame Japs.
A hypothetical case would be an ap
peal to the international court to de.
eide the international legality of the
American law excluding Japanese. II
the court upheld the law as purely
domestic, arbitration would be i'm
possible for Japan to appeal. Con
sequently IL Japan ever went to
hostilities over the question. that
country would automatically be the
aggressor.

AS WE SEE 1T
BY T. }. o'FLAHERTY.

THE Ludendorf- Hitler-Graefe fac
l tions of the German Fascist
movement had a unity convention re-
Gently. Large demonstrations were
izations on German Day, August H..
Violent speeches against the govern
ment were delivered by the Ludendorf
followers and tho the Ebert govern
ment has been urged to take action
against the monarchists for melting
TO murder nothing of the kind has
been done.
HERE is a sample of the kind of
language used by one of the an
ti-republican speakers: standing
here by the side of the greatest Ger
man general, (Ludendorf) l accuse
the present government of the Reich
of treason to the people and the state.

calls us and not to rest until the No

shouted Hang them" and ITO the
lamp post"
XkIITH a socialdemocratic presi-
wv dent in Germany and thousands
of Communists in jail for participant
ing in strikes, no doubt you will ex-
pect to read a little further down that
steps were taken to punish those peo-
pie for advocating violent measures.
But DR.. Karl Jarres, the Minister of
the Interior, does not move a finger,
and the national authorities instead
of furnishing the reactionaries for in
citing to murder, give the Junker Of
ficers in the army leave of absence
in order to attend those antf-repub-
lican demonstrations.
IN sharp contrast to the leniency dis
l played by the German court that
acquitted Ludendorf and Hitler Of
their beer-hall revolution last April,
are the penalties inflicted by the same
body on seven Communists and three
regular army soldiers for having TAX
en- some ammunition from military
barracks last Fall. The sentences
ranged from three to eight years at
hard labor. Early during the trial
the presiding judge remarked that if
the soldiers were guilty of the charge,
they should be taken out and shot.
The defense lawyers refused to pro-
coed with the trial while the Judge
presided, but the judge remained at
his post despite protests to the So
cialist president, Ebert, who after
wards promoted the offending Judge
to the place of Permanent President
Of the Supreme Court for the Defense
of the Republic. That is how Justice"
works under socialist president in
Germany.
