Another Story By a Young Russian

of language, his style Is richer,
more gorgeous, more varied, more
fantastic, going over from stark
realism to grotesque, and then to
the highest reaches Of poetic fan
tasy, attaining to subtIeties, which
LIbedinsky's style cannot attain
But Of course, he sacrifices the SIM
Ilclty Of LlbedInsky, and simplicity
always has a universal appeal not
simplicity carried to the point OF
banaIity, but the crystal clear SIM
pIlcity Of the great masters o. all
times.
However, we should like the read
ers Of our paper to judge for them
selves. We will shortly begin the
publication Of the story "At the
Doors" by Boris PIInIak, In a splen-
did translation from the Russian.
The translation Is by Louis Lozo-
wick, artist and literary critic,
about whom we have already writ
ten and who Is giving his full CO.
operation to the DAILY WORKER,
supplying us with invaluable ma
terlal.
Watch for the first instalInent
OF this story In Saturdays ma9a-
zine section Of the DAILY WORK.

Week., In fact II Is short story,
whereas "a Week" is novel. When
you have read "At the Doors" by
Boris Pllnlak, write TO the DAILY
WORKER and tell US what you

working people react to this sort
Of writing. Is II true that the

when state law is a piece OF
paper or when it is actually a
law. The transformation is also
their trick. In either case no one
is fooled, the difference being
that one performance produces
laughter, the other misery.
Gunmen Are LegalIzed.
The operators show works this way:
He no longer has an argument against
the union; he can't keep his slaves
contented with words, so he uses
force. A law permits him to employ
watchmen to watch his property.
There is in America a peculiar breed
Of brute known as gunman and from
this anti-social crop the operators re-
cruit their watchmen. An obliging
sheriff deputies and turns them loose
with club and gun to terrorize the
workers who may be thinking of a
union. They are now deputy sheriffs
Of the state but the coal operators pay
their wages. In Logan county alone
there are 460 of such watchmen.
Operators Pay Deputies Wages.
The notorious Don Chaffin, who is
still sheriff there, recently testified in
court at an armed-march trial, that
there was a fund in the bank on
which he drew to pay these deputies.
He swore he did not know who put
the money in the bank" The opera
tors, however, admitted they pay the
money and said on the stand that in
1921 in that county it had cost them
$65,000. There is an assessment
placed by the operators association
against every ton of coal mined to pay
for this.
These mine guards have murdered
hundreds Of union miners and none Of
them have ever been molhsted by the
law. That's what the armed uprising
was about in 1921.
Traitor Freed.
Other departments of the law are
equally magical in the operators
hands. After Rev. Joe E. Wilburn
and his son, John, who were convict
ed in connection with the armed
march, turned states evidence, they

217,OOO BASEBALL FANS
ON JOB; TRRONG PARKS
OF The MAJOR LEAGUES

NEW YORK, April 16.--WIth a
total attendance OF more than 217,-
900 at the eight opening games Of
the Major League season, base
ball started to live up to the pre-
season "bIseer and better" pre-
dlctions.
New York with $4,000, Cincinnati
with 35,747 and Detroit with $4,000
topped the list while Philadelphia
was In the hole with a rather mea-
ger 10000.
The total attendance In the Ma
tlonaI League ran to approximately
10000 while the American League
topped II with 10000.
Perhaps the biggest feature Of
the day was the shut-put pitched for
Washington against the Athletics
by Walter Johnson. Starting his
eighteeth season In the Major
Leagues, Johnson let the Athletics
down without run and with only

COOLIDGE and

G. 0. P. SLOGAN
Teapot Oil Thieves Ask
A Years More

WASHINGTON, April 16.-The real
keynote" Of the Republican cam
paign has now been sounded.
With great deal of skill Secretary
Of State Hughes, the third keynoter
thus far tried out, announced last
night in his speech to New York Re
publicans that the keynote is-Calvin
Coolidge,
Weeks ago it was predicted that
the campaign would be centered
around Mr.. Coolidge. Senator Pep
per made an offer in his recent key
note effort to say what Hughes said
last night, but Hughes put it much
stronger.
Hughes carefully built UP case for
the administration. He laid particu-
lar emphasis on the works of the ad-
ministration in IT'S executive depart
ments. The studious avoidance Of
any reference to the record of Con-
gress-except the observation that if
it had not been for obstructionists the
tax reduction program would have
gone thru ere this-was one of the
cleverest features of Hughes "key-
note"
1t is Coolidge upon whom the coun-
try must depend, he said in effect, for
carrying out the program which
Harding began 1t is the character OF
Coolidge which is offered to the ma
ton as an earnest of leadership and
Of constructive achievement.
Ducks Teapot Scandal.
Hughes treatment Of the current
scandals also skillfully emphasized
this Coolidge note. The President,
Hughes solemnly said, is prosecuting
without favor or fear, and is deter
mined on purity of government.
The keynoter summed it all up in
one Of his closing paragraphs when
he said Mr. Coolidge is his own plat
form; that no other is needed.

SHOWS
U. S. INDUSTRY IN
UNHEALTHY STATE
Coal Mining Hits New
Low Level.
BY LELAND oLps
Federated Press Industrial Edltor

Federated Press Industrial EDITOR
Unemployment still prevails in
many parts of the country, according
to the March industrial survey of
the United States department of
labor. The report which generally
leans toward optimism shows that
the employment situation is spotty
with industrial activity far from heal
thy.
Reports showing considerable un-
employment came particularly from
New England and the southern states
while in middle Atlantic and middle
western states the activity Of the iron
and steel industry tended to absorb
the surplus labor.
In New England two major indus
tries, shoes and textiles, were still
operating far below normal. Surplus
workers were unable to secure work
in other lines. The only state in this
section reporting good employment
was Connecticut in which the open
shop metal trades predominant.
New York, New Jersey and Penn
sylvania reported fairly good employ
ment due to iron and Steel Increased
activity in building and road build
ing was also reported.
Middle western states reported en-
ployment improvement during March,
Indiana, however, noted a consider
able surplus of common labor. Min
nesota expected outdoor work to alb
sorb unemployed skilled workers
during the next 80 days. Kansas re-
ported part-time in railroad shops.
oil fields, machine shops and cement
brick plants. Both North and South
Dakota indicated a considerable sur
plus of labor.
Unemployment, particularly in the
coal fields, was noted in West Vir-
ginia and across the line in Ken
lucky. Tennessee hoped the tremen-
dous building program in prospect
would relieve unemployment.
In Virginia, North Carolina, South
Carolina, and Georgia employment is
fairly good with some curtailment In
the textile industry.
Arkansas reported a surplus of un
skilled labor with reduced operations
in the lumber mills. Oklahoma re
ported large surplus of labor in
practically all lines.
Pacific coast states indicated consi
derable unemployment with the pros
pect that production might improve.

Collins testimony was that the first
striker had Taken the writ and torn
it up" He saw he had made a slip,
and testified for the other that "he
did not recall what the strikers did

thugs with "picketing and walking

When asked by the prosecutor
whether he had ever seen Sam Nat
esky in front of 237 South Market
Street, Collins said, "Yes, many
times" But he seemed at loss to
pick him out from among the 10.
Finally the prosecutor came to Col
Inns assistance and said "there he is,

eminent French critic, Victor Serge.

tell US your reaction to these two
writer's, which one appeals more

appeal to you at alI7 For one thing,
the book "A Week" gains a great
deal over the work Of PiInlak be-
cause LlbedInsky has much great
er understanding Of the proletarian
revolution than PllnIak. Pllniak
feels the force OF the Russian revo-
luton, but II does not resolve IL
self into simple terms In his mind.
The revolution Is rather a mystery
10 him, but he Is swept by the tre-
mendous energy Of II and he gives
forth the impact Of II in his work.
To LlhedInsky, the revolution Is
esystal clear and he speaks OF Il
In such simple terms that every
one can see II. To Pllniak the
revolution is bewIIderlng, chaotic,
a whlrI Of strange forces eIashlng
In a vast turmoil which he cannot
always understand, but which he
can always feel. Libedlnsky under

tIon, but he misses Its overtones.

HIGHER LEARNING
GETTING A SHOCK
AT DALLAS, TEX.
Woman Dean Appalled,
AT Spooning Story

DALLAS, Texas, April 16.--Co-edu-
cation was on the defensive at South
ern Methodist University today.
Girl students sought revenge for at
tacks upon them in the "Dinkey," an
outlaw fraternity magazine, as federal
and university officials investigated a
Wilderness" party staged by the ed
itors in celebration Of issuance of the
publication.
Commenting on an editorial which
said the co-eds were painted sepul-
chers Of abomination," Margaret Tilly,
leading coed, said:
ITS an insult-and every bit un-
true.
Bad, Booze Drinking Boys.
"The 'Dinkey' was published by
gang Of booze-drinking reprobates
who don't rate look from a decent
coed.
"When they threw their party out
at Savage Lake they picked their
dates off the streets because they
knew that university women wouldn't
go with them.
1--WE have positive evidence that not
single coed attended the affair"
'It's disgraceful-th boys should
be prosecuted" Mrs. S. ]. Hay, dean
of women, declared Of the "Dinkey."
'It was gross libel. There is no
punishment severe enough for the
boys who published that nasty sheet
they should be prosecuted"
"The Most Awful Thing"
Some Of the girls may be thought
less-and risk their dignities by at
tending parties unchaperoned-bu
they are all good Christian girls. The
Dinkey' was the most awful thing
ever read. had trouble reading ii, 1t
was so shocking. So many of our
best girls were brazenly insulted,"
Mrs. Hay stated.
Mrs. Hay denied there was any pro-
miscuous "boodling" (synonym for
spooning) at S. M. U. The "Dinkey''
charged co-eds took part in "boodling
contests" wherein they made the
rounds of the men on the party and
then voted on the champion boodler."

by magic. Not only for the Wilburns,
but for all criminals whom old man
Wilburn could get to join his con-
spiracy of betrayal.
Bert Seachrist, who was serving a
five-year sentence for shooting both
eyes out Of a man with shotgun,
Joined Wilburn and walked out of jail,
as did Julius Whitlock, an arson con-
vict. These persons together with the
Wilburns testified against Frank Kee-
ney, miners district president.
Witnesses In Chains.
At the same trial the miners had
called men from prison to testify in
their behalf. While the operators
prisoner-witnesse were put up at the
best hotel and given absolute liberty
those on the miners side of the fence
we're locked in Jail and fetched back
and forth to court in chains. Again
the black magic in operation.
The Wilburns were out long before
the Keeney trial. The miners coun-
sci introduced in court hotel bill of
$14S for Wilburn, paid by j. A. Scott
to the Holley hotel at Charleston long
before the trial and when Wilburn
was supposed in jail Scott works up
evidence" for the operators, to the
tune of $4,000 per year and expenses
so he testified in court Old man Will
burn is holding revival meetings now
in Boone county. All Of the freed con
victs have been deputized by Don
Chaffin.
State Foots Bills.
All of this is rather costly to the
operators, 1t will be supposed, but at
the last meeting of the West Virginia
legislature the operators were reim-
bursed out of the state treasury.
"But what about the thousands OF
dollars you have spent defending the
workers side of the house? Is the
state going to pay that back to your"

H. Grim, former assistant attorney
general, "in earnest" in the prosecu-
ton of war fraud cases, Storck re-
piled emphatically "he certainly was"
"But he was blocked" he continued.

Storck then testified that the pro-
perty of German tobacco company
in the Philippines was sold by the ALI

Burton Harrison, former Governor Ge-
neral of the islands acting as agent, to

Storck said.
J AS Storck continued to reel off al
legged crooked deals in alien property
in the Philippines, Senator Jones, Wa
shington, asked where he gots his
facts.
"All from the records of the alien
property custodian" said Storck.
Storck said that Fred Berry. conf
Dental secretary to former Governor
General Harrison went to a German
internment camp in 1918 and told the
prisoners they could be released if
they would agree to sell their pro-
perty. He said clique, led by a
Philippine Bank, organized system
Of second sales" of the German pro-
perty which resulted in high frauds.
Germans Were BlackmaiIed
There were so many embezzlements
in the bank, Storck said, that he ad-
vised Grim that it was unsafe to keep
thN alien trusts there. He said that
Archibald Harrison, brother of the
Governor General was interested in
the bank.
Storck said that scores of Germans
in the Philippines were forced to
sign on the dotted line" and sell their
property to the Philippine clique in
order to get out Of internment camps.

mailed" said Wheeler.
