BRITISH LABOR
LEADERS SCORE
zANKOV REGIME
Urge Labor to Protest
Murder of Communists


LONDON, April 2s.-The bloody
white terror in Bulgaria was denoun-
ced by three members of the British
parliament who arrived in Belgrade
yesterday from Sofia. They declared
that hundreds of workers and peas
ants were shot without trial and only
on the slightest suspicion that they
we're members of the Communist, or
agrarian parties. Members Of the left
wing Of the socialist party are also
liable to be shot without trial.
The members of the British parlia-
ment are: Josiah c. Wedgwood, w.
Mackinder and p B. Malone. The
bomb explosion in the Sofia cathedral
was the direct outcome of the reign
Of terror pursued by the Zankov gov
eminent since it seized power, said
the British laborites. The assassina-
ton of hundreds of Communist and
peasant leaders during the past few
years was the work of military Off
Gals acting with the consent if not
under the instructions of the zankov
regime.
They called on the British workerI
particularly, for immediate action to
stop the bloody crimes being COM
mitted against the people of Bulgaria,
by the agents of British Imperialism.
The Bulgarian YelIows
The attitute of the British laborites
is in strong contrast to the Bulgarian
socialists, adherents of the Second In
ternationale. One of those yellow
traitors, Paskukhoff, issued a state
ment prepared in collaboration with
the Zankov Dictatorship. 1t reads:
"The cathedral outrage and attempt
against the king form a part Of plan
inspired abroad of which the agrarian
Communists in Bulgaria we're instru-
ment. The plan was not solely directed
against the present government, but
against all Bulgarian authorities who
were to be disorganized and annihiI-
ated in order TO facilitate proclama-
ton of Soviet republic Of state Of

to provoke a world outbreak.
western democracy is making q
mistake if it thinks the activities OF
the agrarian Communists are demo

700 CLOTHING
WORKERS STRIKE
AT BRIDGEPORT
Fight Open Shop Firm
with Solid Front

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, April "a
After two weeks of waiting the Anal
gamated Clothing Workers Local 223,
has received a refusal of the demands
they presented to Abraham and Wolf,
and have struck 700 strong.
This firm has come out frankly for
the open shop as a countermove
against the demands of the union. The
demands for which the Bridgeport
clothing workers are now striking are
as follows:
Demand Wage Cut End
The 44-hour weekly work system;
the reduction in wages accepted last
December of 81 week for those re-
ceiving net more than $50, and 50 a
week for those getting over $50 to be
made up at this time in accordance
with the promise that the wage cut
was to continue for only a few
months.
A minimum wage of $12 is asked
for all women apprentices and 500
minimum for men. Before discharge
is made the case must be taken up
with the grievance comittee, and san
itary conditions must be established
with an emergency rest room.
No Abuse From Foremen
The workers demand that the pract-
ice Of foremen in using abusive and
profane language to workers shall
cease, all offending foremen when the
abuse is proven, to be discharged
The union demands that experien-
ced cutters, operators and pressers
shall be hired thru the union office,
but IL the union is unable to supply
the operator within "a hours, the firm
may hire directly.
Workers Party Members Rouse
Workers
The strikers have made Il a 100 per
cent walkout and are standing solid.
Great enthusiasm was shown when
the Workers Party members among
the shop employees led the way for a
complete strike by militant speeches
for unity and struggle.

WHEELER ACTED
FOR OIL Client
IN WASHINGTON
did Him a FAVOR
Says Senator

GREAT FALLS, Mont, April o.
Senator Burton X. Wheeler, defending
himself on the witness stand in feder.
al court here against charges of using
his office to aid clients before the in
terror department at Washington, adj
mitted that he had appeared for Mon
tana oil clients before the department
Of interior.
i told Campbell that after got
to Washington, would take the oil
permit up" Wheeler said in reply to
a question from District Attorney
John Slattery, "Just what 1 would do
for any constituent"
"Acted As Senator"
did you tell him you were going
to take it up with solicitor Booth of
the interior department.? was the
next question. ~
Il probably did. l was not taking
it up as his attorney, but as senator. /"
you were still his attorney when
you went to Washington?
"Absolutely-the firm was. That did
not bar me from doing for Campbell
a favor any more than for one of
these jurymen."
Wheeler denied the testimony of
George Hayes that he had been ap-
preached by the senator to act before
the interior department for the oil
interests while Wheeler was in
Europe.
Senator Thomas ]. Walsh, chief
counsel for Wheeler, told the court
that witnesses are on the way from
New York to refute Hayes testimony.
Court Takes Recess
An impasse was reached TODAY in
the trial Of Senator Wheeler, of Mon
tana, on charges of misuse of office
and an indefinite recess of court was
ordered by Judge Frank S. Dietrich.
New witnesses from the east are
awaited
Recess was taken after Wheeler
himself was dismissed from the wit
ness stand, after five hours Of direct
and cross examination. Wheeler clung
to his story denying be ever practiced

BANKERS FACE
CONTRADICTION
IN DAWES PLAN
German Payments Ruin
Allied Markets

NEW YORK, N. ", April 23.-That
Germany Is evidently able to produce
surplus goods enuf to meet the repara-
tions payments called for under the
Dawes plan" William {. Knox, presi-
dent American Bankers Association,
admlts-without mentioning how Ger
many Is producing the surplus by la
Dor paid almost no wages.
But means for making the transfer
(of the surplus goods) without adj
verse international results remain to
be worked out" the banker adds in
his statement on the forthcoming con-
ference of the International Chamber
of Commerce to be held at Brussels in
June.
The lnsoIube Riddle.
THE problem of the immediate pres
ent, then, is to develop ways and
means by which these goods may be
distributed at profit so as to be eff
fective and valuable for Germany"
says Knox, "and, at the same time, not
intrude upon or assail the existing
markets Of therallies or the neutraIs. /"
The specter of German competition
darkens the bankers horizon again.
Knox states that 1.-THE Brussels con
gress, aided by the experts who de-
veloped the Dawes plan, will give its
primary thot to this problem and,
upon its successful solution, depends
our future peaceful economic rela-
tions."
In other words, the banker is adj
hitting that the last war did not solve
the problem of markets and German
competition.
