Dear Comrade: l am in receipt of
your letter Of Dec. 20 in which you
state that you are Withholding ship
ments of some bundles, waiting for a
reply from me. In answer / will say
that l am still working as a relief
committee for the needy miners here,
and will say that l am very thankful
to the DAILY WORKER and its read
ers for the many donations they have
made to assist us here in our battle
to try and keep the miners children
in clothing sufficient to go to school,
which has been great burden.
Il explain the necessities at the
present time: 1 will say that the nee
essities are beyond my ability to ex-
plain, for there has been no work here
for about a year and we have about
400 men who have been unable to
find work any where.
But the greatest need we find any
where here is clothing for the children
between the ages of to IL years and
our greatest trouble is to keep them
supplied with shoes and stockings, and
overalls for the boys, for the mothers
have managed pretty well SO far to
keep the girls supplied with dresses
by cutting down the dresses Of women
which have been sent in the donation
bundles.
Il will close by thanking you for
the donations you have made to help
us in this very distressing time and
will thank in advance for anything you
may do to help us in the future.

REACTION RAISES ITS FIST
AGAIN IN THE UNITED STATES

NEW YORK, January 2.-The con-
firmation Of the sentence upon Com
rade Ruthenberg, secretary of the
Workers Party, with the threatened
reopening Of the case of Comrade
Foster, chairman Of the Workers Par
ty, indicate that the arrest Of Com
rade Lassen, editor Of the vi Elore,
is not an isolated fact. Many revolu-
tionary workers in the United States
have deportation warrants hanging
over their heads. Secretary of Labor
Davis wishes to put the foreign work
ers in the United States under the
control of the police department,
which could recommend deportation
at once, in case the conduct Of these
workers does not please the capitalist
government. Even If these workers
have become citizens, their naturaliza-
ton papers can be Cancelled and they
may be deported.
May Remove Swear Limitation.
The latest proposition is that of
Representative Johnson to remove the
five-year limitation upon the right to
deport foreign workers. Thus it is
evident that concerted plan to de-
stroy the militant revolutionary labor
movement Is under way. This is only
part Of the general attack that the
capitalists Of this country are soon
going to launch against the organ
lied labor movement.
The arrest Of Comrade Lassen is
one Of the links in this chain OF facts.
Comrade Lassen, who did trojan work
in the revolutionary movement OF
Hungary and fed from that country
to the United States to get out OF the
clutches Of the white terror, has been
