Constitution to BE
Changed

ROME, Italy, March 27-The fascist
party is revising the constitution of
Italy, in an attempt to use the gov
eminent and the fascist party to d.
rectly break strikes.
Following the recent strike Of the
fascist metal workers, the fascist
leaders, who from the beginning of
their rule have been allied with the
capitalists, are taking steps to break
future strikes.
The revision of the constitution ac-
cording to the fascist leaders plans,
compels the labor unions to renounce
the right to strike, and submit to the
arbitration Of a national wage tri-
bunal," which would be dominated by
the employers.
The change in the constitution also
makes the ruling that one-third of
the members of the chamber OF depu.
ties shall be elected from unions and
employers associations. AS ali +.
fascist unions are outlawed, only fas.
cist workers will be allowed to run
for the chamber.

SOUTHWEST COAL
BARONS IN WAR
ON Mine UNIONS
Entire Section Goes on
Open Shop Basis
Especial to Tho Daily worker.)


TULSA, OKLA, March 27. - Ten
large mines in the Henryetta-o kmuI-
gee coal fields have broken their con-
tracts with the miners union and be-
gan operations on a non-unlon basis.
In addition the largest mines of the
southwest have given the miners the
uItlmatum-'elther come to work as
non-unIon men or the mines close
down."
The Manchester, Wilburton, Hart
shorne and Tulsa fields have already
taken this step, and now the strong
hold of the miners union of the
southwest, weakened by the disrup-
ton Of the ku klux khan, has been
invaded by the coal operators.
A wholesale shut down of mines,
preparatory to the drive to reduce
wages and destroy the miners union,
was begun in the Henryetta fields, on
Feb. Is. On that date five mines
were closed down, and none of these
mines has yet been re-opened. When
they do, the operators announce, 1t
will be on the non-union wage scale.
Last week the Whitehead Mine No.
2, which has mined 400 tons a day
for the Frisco railroad, closed down.
This was the last of the six mines of
the Crow Coal company, the largest
coal company in the southwest, to
close.
The Wise-Buchanan, the B and A
at Schulter, the Pittsburgh and Mid
way, and the Son Coal company's
mines will all be shut down, to re-
open on an open shop" basis. The
Atlas Star and Consolidated is to
close down this week.
Henryetta depends on coal as its
chief source of income, and the al
ready destitute miners are expected
to suffer keenly.

TEXTILE STRIKE
WINNING FIGHT
IN UTICA MILLS
A Few Bruised Scabs
Weave No Cloth


UTICA, N. Y, March 27.-The text
lie barons' attempt to cut wages in
this city is meeting with utter de-
feat. The signs of this are their fail
ure to get the workers to break ranks
and scab, their failure to provoke the
strikers by a few armed thugs and
their latest announcement according
to the mill owners usual line Of bunk,
that they are going to CLOSE down
the mills" The strikers beat them
to that.
Professionals In ProvocatIon.
The Utica Steam Cotton mill
brought in fourteen professional scabs
from New York City. About 500 or
700 strikers were around the mill.
The scabs began to shake their fists
at the strikers and put their thumbs
to their noses-looking for a fight.
The strikers waited.
These strike breakers carry nuns
against the law. but the mill owners
are the law. The mill owners had
no success in provoking a massacre.
with all their scabs calling names at
the strikers.
Another Trick.
Then they tried another trick. They
got one Of the scab gunner in a
covered wagon, and they left it in the
street for some time. The scab peek
ed out of the wagon. Nothing happen
ed. Then the wagon was driven TO
a lunch room to get some food for
the other scabs in the mill. The SUI
perintendent then took three scabs
in his car to the lunch room and
left them there.
Why seabblng Isn't Popular.
The strikers waited. When the
scabs came out they insulted the strik-
ers. Then the fight started. The
scabs were beaten with sticks and
stones and ran into the mill where
they stayed all night.
Advertisements don't seem TO make
anybody want to come to work in this
mill. There are 1000 strikers in the
two mills. The company advertised
for loom fixers and weavers. None
showed up. That's funny, isn't It?
Beware Of Arbitration Betrayal
The mayor Of Utica, like all capital.
list politicians, is trying to help be-
tray the strikers into arbitration. He
has appointed a special committee.
And who do you think they are?
The committee consists OF two law
yers and a preacher. One is Attorney
Moses G.. Hubbard, Jr., prominent in
the strike breaking American legion;
William Lee Ross, former prosecut-
ing attorney; and a presbyterian
preacher, Philip s. Bird, who is a bird
that everybody knows is on the side
Of the company. But the strikers have
their strike committee. which has no
need for any aid. II can handle all
the arbitration, and must do it.

Charter To Be Asked.
A committee will be chosen and a
local established at each mining
camp. Then, after the election of the
miners own officers, a charter will be
asked from the U. M. w. Of A. Day
by day the miners are leaving the
workings. spreading the fight against
the wage cut.
Three additional coke mines owned
by the Oliver-Snyder Steel Company
near Uniontown. Fayette county,
Pennsylvania, have been struck by
the men. in protest against the pro-
posed wage cut. Eight hundred more
men came out from the pits, swelling
the ranks Of strikers In this unorga-
nized territory. All men are stand
Ing solid, refusing to accept a cut
which in reality will amount to $500
a day.
The wage cut which the operators
are attempting to put over would re-
duce the wages for day work $3.50 per
day; on tonnage work So cents for a
3h to ton car. For digging and
loading such car in these pick mines
the former tonnage price was $1.60
and is now being cut to $1.05. Stimuli
taneously the companies have in
creased the price on powder cents
per pound; the stores owned by the
company have increased the price on
-four to $1,000 per barrel, and on
meat, for steak 60 cents per pound
and fer pork chops 45 cents per
pound. In this manner the real wag-
es would be reduced about $500 a
day.
eSS A Command to Buy.
Just prior to the strike the com
pany stores issued to the miners
what appeared to them to be a credit
slip for a certain amount of money
Later however, these slips turned out
to be a command to buy that much
in the store orslose their jobs. This
shows how complete the companies
own the territory and determines not
only working conditions but econ
omic and social conditions as we'll
No wonder the rebellion has become
so complete.
OF course the company has it's
agents amongst the strikers. Fake
meetings are being called from time
to time, poorly attended, at which
someone proposes to go back to work,
and in some instances thru lies and
Misrepresentation, succeed in put
