q. [. D. News Service

BELLAIRE, Ohio. Dec. 6 - The
large hall at the Miners Temple in
Bellaire, o.. was crowded to capacity
with standing room only when men
and women gathered to hear Bishop
Brown and Fred G. Biedenkapp on the
need for labor defense and class sol
idarity.
The audience loudly approved the
statement of Bishop Brown that we
must Danish the gods from the skies
and the capitalists from the earth.
When Biedenkapp stated that no
amount of persecution would prevent
the eventual supremacy of labor over
capital, the hall rang with approval.
A large collection for defense was
taken up by Chairman Hogue, who re-
minded the workers of their duty to
their class and cause.
Defy Chamber of Commerce.
The large attendance at the meeting
was undoubtedly the answer of the
workers of Bellaire to the recent au-
tocratic action of the city administra-
ton supported by reactionary forces
in an attempt to prevent and suppress
free speech and workers meetings, as
was the case when the Workers (Com.
munist) Party meeting to celebrate
the Sth Russian anniversary was for
hidden.
The workers of Bellaire are not in
clined to have their meetings inter
fered with by the police or the Cham
Der of Commerce.

NO GUN-No MURDER.

The druggist must report every
sale of poison and must put on
label that shrieks to heaven. Poison
is deadly and why not be careful
to whom it is sold? While you
may not be able to buy nickeis
worth of poison, you can go to any
store and get yourself gun or
two--providing you have the money.
1t is a sure sign of manhood to
have loaded gun on your hip.
Then when your argument becomes
vague and vapid, you can pull the
gun and start shooting. This will
turn the argument in your FAVOR
and you will be able to walk away

be murderer.
Should some dealer perchance,
refuse to sell you this instrument
of death-to protect your home or
yourself from rats, mice and other
predatory .animals-send to one OF
the mail order houses and ges as

What we are getting at is the
ease by which a deadly gun can be

and believe for the democracies we
more specially represent, that France
was the first to put her signature at
the bottom of this document, which
from now on awaits but the signature
OF the other nations to be the final
charter of peace
1t can never more be said that
France is a power which still medi-
tates war. / say emphatically that we
do not desire for our country either
conquest, annexation or extension
The time has come when our great
nation, so long a victim of its geo
graphical situation-a sort of carya-
It'd bearing on its strong and noble
shoulders the weight of the liberty
of the world-should be relieved of
this horrible fear for its safety and at
