<. P. Band Concert Is
Noteworthy Success

The concert given in the Templc
theatre Monday night, by the knights
of Pythias band, was a real treat
to the audience that almost filled the
auditorium. The solos and duets and
othere Independent selections were ex-
ceptionally entertaining, and the band
pieces, especially "a Little Bit of
Pop" were roundly encored.
A soprano solo by Twila B~erring-
er was exceptionally pleasing.
A dance followed the concert.
The Knights of Pythias merit com
mendation for their efforts to pro-
vide the town with a band, and the
success of Monday nights concer
has produced the verdict that the
t~ownspeople are with them in their
efforts.
The band desires to thank every
body who contributed to the success
of the concert.

7. U. E.. L. STATEMENT

The Trade Union Educational

ed the workers to solidify their forces
against the menace of white guard
suppression going under the guise of
laws against criminal syndicalism. !"

Workers Fortify For Attack.
Today there is a new cause for
unity of all workers, Communist and
non-Communist, organized and unor-
ganized, of all races and conditions.

charge being only one of assembling

Ruthenberg was sentenced to from
three to ten years in the Michigan
penitentiary and bail denied.

issue of the defense of the victims of
the Michigan criminal syndicalist'

of these coal miners, which appeared

WlLKESBhRRE, Pa, jan. 8.
when RinaIdo cappeIIini,
district president, United Mine
Workers of America, called a
mass meeting of the striking
anthracite miners to explain"
things yesterday afternoon he
brought upon himself the most
complete defeat a union be-
trayer has ever suffered in this
district.
The Pittston armory was
crowded with 1000 angry min
ers and Cappellini caught literal
hell.
They called him traitor" and &C.
cused him of selling them out. They
howled down his accusation that Com
munists were his only opposers and
for hours plastered him with epithets
as he stood alone on the platform.

You can fool ali the people, some
of the time, and some of the people
all of the time, but you can't fool all
the people all of the time,' declared
one leader of the strikers commit.
tee, quoting the famous saying of Lin
coin.
The Italian coal miners, aroused to
a high pitch of indignation at the muir.
der of Sam Pace and Steve Freely, and
the brazen treachery of the district
president. were foremost in attacking
Cappelini.
Cappelini was hardly disguised in
his role Of coal operators agent. The
mask of union officer was thin in
deed. He dared not trust his life and
limb to the members of his own un.
ion, and tho he stood alone on the
platform, he had the protection of
Gordon of police, forty plain clothes
men and a squadron of "Cossacks"

good as a district president-and the
'Noes!" fairly took the roof off the
building.
