LONDON, Dec. S.-The censure of

with the indictment and the prejudged
sentence of the IL members of the
Communist Party and the Young Com

vote of S51 to 1877.
During the debate, many of the la

Macdonald Attacks .Indisoretions.
Ramsay Macdonald, who is a labor
member Of parliament and a staunch
supporter of the capitalist order, did
not criticize the government for the
prosecution of the COMMUNISTS but for
its indiscretions. He showed that the
charge against the Communists when
stripped of its superhhities was one
of possession of documents for publi-
cation. He stated that the accusations
that the British Communists received
money from Moscow was not substan-
tiated and that the charge of mutiny
and sedition was not proved?

COOLIDGE TRIES
CRUSHING MINERS
UNION is CHARGE
Wants Investigation of
Gals Moves
Especial to The Daily worker>

WASHINGTON, Dec. STRIP
Sen. Shipstead, farmer-labor, of Min
nesota, announces that immediate in
vestigation should be made by con-
gress in charges that the Coolidge adj
ministration is party to plot to crush
the United Mine Workers of America
by aid of federal governmental ma
chinery.
These charges were first made
public by The Federated Press, in
dispatch telling of the granting of
freight rate reductions by the inter
state commerce commission to non
union bituminous coal. 1t was sug-
gested that reduction of rates from
the western Pennsylvania field in
which Mellon, Sehwab, Berwind and
Rockefeller are dominating figures, to
the Duluth market and the New Eng
land market, was now expected. This
field has recently broken it's contracts
with the United Mine Workers and
has set up company unions, organized
by a renegade union official. Last
September rate reduction was given
the non-union coal fields of Kentucky,
West Virginia and Virginia.
On behalf of secretary of the treas
ury, Mellon, lame excuse has been
issued, that he is not an investor in
the Pittsburgh Coal Co., which is
known as Mellon property. But he
admits that for the past 20 years,
until he came to Washington, he was
one of the executive committee of its
board, put in by his own trust com
pany which took charge when the
coal company got into financial diff
culties. So, as banker, he has do
minated the coal company's policy.
He still owns shares in it. And he
sharply refuses to predict the resump-
ton Of relations with the United Mine
Workers.

BY A Worker cOrrespOnasns

5ENWooD, w. Va, Dec. 3.-oVer
a thousand wage-sIaves were thrown
out Of the work this week, when the
National Tube Co., big open-shop
steel mill, closed down for the winter.
It shut down completely, shutting out
thousands of workers and their fami-
lies from means of keeping from
starving thru the long winter months.
Two months before closing down,
the mills had cut wages FIVE per cent.
This was done shop by shop instead
OF all at once, to save the bosses from
trouble that might arise if all the
workers knew their plan at the same
time.
This scab company employs mostly
foreign-born workers, because they
can exploit them easier, as few can
talk English and they don't know
enough to get organized.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 3.-The
Mothers League met on the seventh
anniversary of Armistice Day to pro-
test against all capitalist wars in
which working class youth is butcher

the master class.
The last war is supposedly over but
yet blood is being shed between cap

preparations are being made for an
other war, which will sooner or later
break out with greater force and VOL
ence than it had in 1914.
The Mothers League pledges itself
to conduct persistent and construct

conditions are certainly bad. The log
gers, whose work Is very hard, are
poorly fed, the food being so bad that
It is enough to destroy the appetite Of
the hungriest fellow who comes to
the table. For this fare the workers
are charged SIPS per day.
The wages are thirty-five cents low,
sixty-one cents high per hour; all
working for day wages except the
buckers, who mostly work on contract.
But what the buckers are being paid
do not know. All workers within this
camp are called at $50 a. M; six
o'clock the breakfast bell rings, and
so little time is allowed for breakfast
that part of the woodsmen grab their
share Of the grub and finish their
breakfast on the run while herding
to the job.
This camp is situated at a distance
of four miles from the job, and the
loggers come in to eat dinner at the
camp. They have so little time al
lowed for meals that the working
engine begins to whistle calling them
to rush ito board on" and go back
to work almost as soon as they sit
down to their meals.
Quitting time in the woods is 6:15
p. M, and they are supposed to be
at supper by 500 D. m. But the
woodsmen cannot get to camp before
$3.50 p. m, so they rush straight to
the dining room without waiting to
clean up because they are afraid II
they stay to wash the CRIME from their
hands and faces that the dining room
will close and they will not be able
to get any supper
There are between five hundred
and six hundred men employed In this
camp during the season, and the camp
is owned and operated by the Sugar
Pine Lumber cmopany. This COM
pany hires men from Sacramento,
Stockton and San Francisco, and any
footloose rebel who can head that way
is advised to get on the job, for there
is big field for organization. But
this camp will probably shut down in
the middle of December.

JUDGE PREPARES
DECISION BEFORE
CASE IS CALLED
Papers Have Verdict
Two Days Ahead
BY CARL HAESSLER.
Federated Press.

By a decision, thoughtfully COM
municated to the newspapers two days
before it was signed, Judge Denis E.
Sullivan, the injunction car of the
Chicago superior court, has given
temporary knockout to the new Illi-
nois Injunction limitation law. In adj
ditiOn he has sentenced 8 union
pickets to fines and Jail. This statute,
passed after one of the biggest battles
put up in the legislative Hobbies at
Springfield by organized labor, was
practically the only important law
favorable to the workers that came
out of the 1925 session. 1t restricts
the rights of judges to enjoin work
ers on strike unless persons or pro-
perty are shown in imminent danger
and it has largely cut down in prac-
tise the habit of judges Of issuing in
functions without hearing the other
side Of the case. The new law had an
appreciable effect in the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers Union victory over
the International Tailoring Co. and in
other union struggles since spring.
Sullivan, notorious for years be-
cause of his drastic writs, tried in
vain to get a chance at the law but
was always defeated by motions for
change Of venue. Then the present
case, that of strikers and the bust
ness agent of Local 1876, Retail Clerks,
arrested for picketing before the de-
partment store of Ossey Bros. in the
Jewish district came before him. He
refused a motion for change Of venue
because the anti-picketing injunction
had been granted in April, 1924, a
year before the new law. The picket
ing began on a large scale last Oc-
tober under the protection OF the new
law
The judge, who has often been de-
nounced by the Chicago Federation Of
Labor, decided that the injunction is
still in force and that the new law,
which might have superseded the in
junction, is unconstitutional. He
seemed especially impressed by the
plea of the store owners that the
pickets had cut down business 5Ogs.
This he deemed destruction Of pro-
perty. He knocks out the law on the
ground that Ito say to one class
(capital) that its property may be
taken from it or destroyed by another
class (iabor) without compensation OF
process is not liberty; 1t is inviting
the tyranny Of the mob"
