Tn. Special Assessment.

INDIANAPOLIS, March g. It is
now believed that the, two months
special assessment levied on the
membership of the United Mine
Workers of America by the interna-
sional executive was for the purpose
Of meeting an emergency such as the
attack of the coal operators promises
in the near future. While this was
not admitted at union headquarters,
Ellis Searles. editor Of the Mine
Workers journal and sometimes
mouthpiece for John L. Lewis admit
ted that there is a chance for a la
Dor disturbance developing"
Working With stoolplgeons.
Searles who has been working in
conjunction with the department Of
Justice, in fighting the radicals, is
one Of the slimiest capitalist lickspit-
ties in the trade union movement.
His chief usefulness is in his sub
serviency to the autocrat, John L.
Lewis, and his willingness to do any
dirty work for money.
When the Jacksonville pact was
signed, Searles used up gallons of
ink praising it. Now, he has to admit
that it will not succeed in eliminating
strife in the coal industry. AS a mat
ter of fact, 1t accomplished just what
the operators wanted. 1t strangled
the union until the coal barons were
ready to take the offensive. Lewis
and his stool pigeon, Searles, had the
good will of the operators while they

Lewis and Green were dining with

that they were perfectly safe and

dirty work. But 1t is not Lewis and
his fellow traitors that will suffer but

TO HE'LL WITH
EUROPE" IS new
BRITISH POLICY
Chamberlain Says Eng
land Comes First
Especial to The Daily Worksrl

LONDON, Eng, March 2.--ForeIsn
Minister Austen Chamberlain has out
lined the policy TO be pursued by the
British government toward Europe, In
a secret memorandum distributed to
government officials. ChamberIain's
document puts the interests Of the
English property owners before all
else.
It says. in effect, that Europe is in
an unstable condition, and If neces-
sary, the British government must
let the workers Of Europe starve rath-
er than interfere to the detriment Of
the English interests.
The policy Of isolation is out Of
date, however. Chamberlain states,
not because England can benefit the
masses Of Europe, but because air
planes make the English subject to
attack from France or Belgium and
an alliance with Europe is necessary
to prevent such an attack.
