May Day Carnival
Harlem Casino on
May 2, of T. u. E. L.

The Eastern District, and the
Needle Trades Section, T. U. e. l..
have arranged a joint May Carnival
and dance for Saturday evening, May
End, at Harlem Casino, 10th street
and Lenox avenue.
This will be a regular get together
Of all trade union militants. The ar
rangement committee is doing all in
its power to make this final affair of
the season unique event for all
rebels. An excellent orchestra has
been hired to help liven matters up,
and they will too.
However, all militants should real
lied that this affair is arranged also
for the purpose of raising some money
to help conduct the T. U. e. L. There
is still much to be done, and the
question of money is . troublesome
problem.
You can, therefore, kill two birds
with half-bone (5oc.) help the TUE.
L. in its work and have a good time
yourself.
For tickets get in touch with the T.

Dawes Plan and Union
Bureaucrats Kill g.
Hour Law in Europe

WASHINGTON, April 24.-(FP)-
In the first issue of the International
Metal Workers Federation Bulletin
to be published since the war-a COPY
reaching the metal trades department
Of the American Federation Of Labor
from |. M. F. headquarters in Berne
the denial Of the eight-hour day by
German, Polish and other national
groups of metal manufacturers in Eu-
rope is described.
Actual working time in the German
metal industry has been increased to
from 81 to 81 hours per week. Nom
inal working time is 81 hours. In
January, 1925, full time employment
was reported for s4.3s per cent Of
the 2,074,0O0 workers ia the industry.
Reports to the federation from Po-
land showed that Polish employers
use the excuse that German competi-
ton forces them to disregard the
eighthour rule.
Trade union leaders, fearing the ef-
feet Of a struggle at this time, have
agreed, for the second time, to a
voluntary" suspension OF the eight
hour limit for six months. This sur.
render was fastened by the closing Of
many plants and the reduction of
hours in most Of the remainder.

INDIANA CITY
BACKS ACTION
AGAINST KLUXER
Accused Of Murderous
Attack on Girl

INDIANAPOLIS, April 24.-The city
of Indianapolis gave support today to
the prosecution of David s. Stephen
son, former grand dragon Of the In
diana ku klux khan, on charges of
first degree murder in connection with
the death Of Miss Madge Oberholtzer,
who swallowed poison after an alleged
criminal attack.
Members of theacity council, headed
by Council President Ben H. Thomp-
son, announced their intention of
drafting a ordinance appropriating
$500 from the municipal treasury to
aid in the prosecution Of Stephenson
and his co-defendants, Earl Gentry
and Earl Klenck.
To Pass Ordinance.
Thompson called on the city at
torney for an opinion as to the legal
ity Of such ordinance, but expressed
the belief that the proposed ordinance
would be valid. The statute permit
ting the council to appropriate money
for rewards in capturing criminals
can be extended to justify the
Stephenson prosecution fund In his
opinion, Thompson said.
If the city attorney pronounces the
proposed ordinance legal, It will be
drawn up by John L. Hogue city
comptroller, and submitted to the
council at it's meeting Monday night.
Attorneys for both sides were
silent on what effect the verdict of
the coroner, that "Madge Oberholtzer
died from mercury poisoning" might
have on the states case against
Stephenson, also formerly recognised
as one Of Indiana's dominant poll
ticians.
Flight Over Ball.
However, the murder indictments
admit the direct cause OF Miss Ober-
holtzer's death was bichloride of
mercury, but they charge Stephenson
and his cohorts with the responsibility
for her suicidal attempt, which re-
suited in the girls death a month
ago.
A spirited court proceeding was an
ticipated in the hearing Monday on
the former khan organizers petition
to be admitted to bail The defense
will be forced to bring out much of
its evidence in averring that the
charges are SUFFICIENT to justify re-
fusal of bail.
Stephenson, Klenck and Gentry
have been in Jail since their arrest
Monday.

Harrington Tool Not Union Member

on Walker, that decision being
founded upon independent evidence
clearly shown in the records Of the
SHANGHAI secretary of the local union.
From the local secretary it was
found that Walker did not pay dues
for either October, November or De-
cember, and thus became delinquent
on December 81. According to the
international constitution he is re-
quired to carry out its provisions given
in Article II, Section 2, as follows:
What Jackey Must Do.
ANY member becoming three
months in arrears for dues and as
sessments, unless exonerated from the
payment Of same, shall forfeit his
membership and can be reinstated
only by paying an initiation fee and
such other penalties as may be i'm
posed by the district in which appli-
cation for membership is made"
Walker, it appears from local union
records, tried to sneak back when a
Harrington job appointment was being
conspired, by paying his back dues
during January and attempting by this
illegal method to re-establish his mem
bership.
Cites FarIneton's Words as Precedent.
The local committee, in taking the
stand that no back door reinstate-
ment could be had by Walker, cites
Farrington's own words in relation to
Duncan Mcdonald, when Harrington
said "True, after McDonald's delin-
quency was exposed, or when he was
caught with the goods on him, he paid
up the long overdue assessment, but
he was too late then"
Miners, in mock extenuation of
"Jackey's" failure to pay dues, re-
mark: well, how can you expect
Jackey to pay dues from the coal he
never dug? And then the wife had
to invest in a new washtub last win
ter, and this drained the family ex-
chequer."
