Life in the Coal Mines.

To the DAILY WORKER. - My
friend, Alonzo Walters, gave me your
address and asked me to write some
thing once in while for the DAILY
WORKER.
Yesterday coal miners wife, Mrs.
T., called on me. Her husband is a
secret service man she told me. He
works in the coal mines for $685. per
day. His seven children are going
hungry wearing clothes that won't
keep out the cold. Day after day the
father sees their little pinched, hun.
cry faces and little bodies shivering
in the cold. And he calls himself a
loving father.
A Company Sucker.
Mrs. T., your husband is what our
boys call company sucker" l told
her. "And when the miners here are
more strongly organized they won't
stand for dead beat like Mr.. t."
The men here are so exploited by
the coal barons they can't call their
souls their own. Yesterday was pay
day in the camps. What a mockery
it all is. Not more than dozen min
ers drew any money. One Italian
came in Saturday night He said he
received no money in his pay envel-
ope for six months. "My babies need
shoes, and everything else" he said,
''but can't buy them a thing"

our men and boys going into those
holes to make money for Mr.. Coal Op.

rade was not accused Of a political
offence but of common crime. Com

Asylum Abolished
Thus the right of asylum in Aus
tria is abolished. For any capitalist
court may affirm that a political
fugitive has committed a common
crime" Every arrest can be justified
in this way. In this manner, on the
basis of artif1cially constructed ac-
cusations, all political fugitives will
be delivered to their hangmen. To
day the German bourgeoisie demands
its victim, tomorrow the Roumanian,
Hungarian, Bulgarian or Italian ter
ror states will utilize the Austrian
police as their mercenaries in order
to capture the escaped proletarian
class fighters.
Comrade Zorusch has been placed
before the court, in the meantime
which will decide on his delivery to
the Ebert justice. This is the first
case of formal delivery of political
emigrant, since 1920.
Horthy Demands His Blood
Two days after this case occurred.
the Austrian justice looked for it's
second victim. On January 14th the
Hungarian Comrade Vidra was ar
rested in order to be delivered to the
Horthy justice. Vidra was the lead
er Of red guard troop in Soviet Hun
gary. He was arrested in 1919 but
soon released for lack of evidence
against him. Since that time he lived
in Vienna with his wife and child and
devoted himself to his work. His
child has died now and he received a
permission to stay for another year.
But he was arrested because his
delivery to the Horthy gang was de-
manded on account of suspicion of
murder" The Austrian government
which knows the case very well. is
shameless enough to comply with the
wishes" of the hangmen's govern.
ment. ii
Others To Follow
The right of asylum, has thus been
abolished for political emigrants in
Austria. The Austrian working class
will have to take energetic action
because this act of violence is only
one link in chain. Accusations
against editors of the labor press, i'm.
prisoning and class sentences against
starving unemployed, preventing of
the supporting of political prisoners
by prohibition of the Red Aid,-this
is the road which is taken by the
Austrian government because the
international capitalists demand it.
All workers without exception must
resist this systematic campaign of
prosecutions. Furthermore the per-
sectutions must be prevented by an in
classification of the Red Aid activity.
The German workers, too, must
fight German class justice which calls
political emigrants common Grim
inals'' in order to get them into
prison. The whole international prole.
tartan must fight for the right OF
asylum in all countries.
