Conmercializing Radio

his majesty, the king, who, l believe
will soon make his application to join

in power the conditions have grown
steadily worse for the working class
Instead of cheap bread and cheap
milk, ETC., the prices of food have
practically doubled, and besides the
workers are to have criminal syndi-
calist'' law as good as the one we are
enjoying in the good old U. S. A.
Like section Six, Article Two"
The social democratic minister of
justice has submitted proposals for a
law for the protection of the capitalist
state. This proposal is, without doubt,
directed against the Communists, and
our own state of Michigan could do
no better.
The law calls for drastic action
against anybody who threatens the
safety of the state and proposes a IL
year term in prison for persons who
may participate in any attack upor
this state. 1t even calls for prison
terms for those who happen to know
that the safety of the state is in dan
ger and do not inform the state au
thorities.
Socialists Arm White Guard.
Another wonderful social-democrat-
ic service to the working class is that
Of disarmament. They propose, in
stead Of the army, to have standing
militia which shall be selected by the
king and his loyal servants. In other
words they are proposing a white
guard for the protection of the CAPT
talist class against the workers,
whom they Of course will have dis
armed, as the conscript army was
composed Of mostly workers.
These workers are not exactly safe
when they carry guns, they may turn
them against their masters at times
they may refuse to shoot their fellow
workers, as for instance during the
general strike, when the government
ordered a whole regiment of soldiers
from Copenhagen and instead called
in a new regiment composed of new
recruits that could be trusted to stand
by his majesty, Long Christian"
Some Of the soldiers at that time
openly talked about joining the strike
in their garrisons, and now the social
traitors have discovered a new way to
keep the king Of Denmark on his
horse. The capitalists can very easily
support such a proposal as it offers
them more safety than before. In
reality it means to arm the bosses and
disarm the workers.
There is no proposal for the control

ing have normal output of 100000
ton year. The corporations merged
are the West Virginia Coal & Coke
Co., the Main Island Creek Coal Co.,
the Logan Mining Co., the Rich Greek
Coal Co., the Empire Coal Co., and the
| Glen Phares mines Of the Oakland Co.
Morgan's First National Bank of
New York cooperating with the
(Rockefeller) National City Co., put
over the deal and as usual saddled
the new corporation with a $10,0OO,O0O
bonded debt which probably represents
all the real money put in by the own
ers. But in addition the miners will
be expected to earn dividends on 65,.
900 shares Of preferred stock and 1885,
900 shares Of no-par common stock.
Non-union Mines Get Tonnage.
Discrimination against union coal
diggers continues to show in the week
ly reports of the U. S. bureau of mines.
According to the bureau the percent
of normal operation in leading union
fields in the week ended Dec. 10, 1924
was: Illinois 48.5 per cent, Indiana,
47.2 per cent, Pittsburgh 1927 per cent,
central Pennsylvania, 58.6 per cent
Fairmont 1877 per cent and western
Kentucky 40.2 per cent. Operations
in the leading non-union fields were:
Westmoreland, 744 per cent, Winding
Gulf, 65.4 per cent, New River, 64.6
per cent, Pocahontas, 500 per cent,
Tug River, 69.S per cent, Logan, 71.5

63.1 per cent, Hazard, 71.3 per cent
and Virginia, n per cent.
British Miners Make $2.59 a Day.
The average wage paid British min
ers in November was 10 shiIlings IL
pence per day which means approx.
mately $2.59 at present rate of ex-
change. This represents an increase
Of about 65 per cent over 1913, while
the cost of living in England has been
steadily advancing to 80 per cent
above the pre-war level
The wage cost of South Wales coal
is reckoned at approximately ss.1S and
the total cost at about s4.77 ton.

rule of violence in that oppressed
land.
In order to instill into the minds of
the Sudan population respect for Brit
ish bayonets, several officers and sol
diers Of the Egyptian and Sudan rmy
have been hanged and shot by British
generals. This plan of action was de-
vised by Ramsay Macdonald who
mentioned it in his letter to General
Allenby in October last. The British
plunderers' desire to utilize the assas-
sination of General Lee Stack as a
pretext for carrying out their preda-
tory plans in Egypt and the Sudan.
To compel Egypt to accept its tru-
culent and cynical demands the Brit
ish government is shaking its mailed
fist in the face of that defenceless
country.
From all sides, from Malta, Gibral-
tar and Cyprus, British cruisers and
gunboats are Fastening to the shores
of Egypt. British military units are
being despatched to Egypt itself. The
British air fleet is lowering over the
doomed country like a horde Of vul-
lures, seeking victims for their bombs.
Final preparations are being made
to seize Egypt by the throat and COM
pei her to consent to allow herself
to be plundered.
Meanwhile the leaders of the Egyp-
hian bourgeoisie together with the
landlords are shamefully captivating
