Carlson refused to talk to officers or
his own counsel, ]. J. Kintzinger, who

sequence other than that II saw my
chance and took it."

a principal in the murder of Hem
mer, he declared that he knew it, but
reiterated his statement that he was
not a party to the plot to kill Hem
mer or to break Jail.

out of clear sky but on impulse had
run for clothing and rushed through
the door

Young Miners! Fight Against the Bosses!

not only have union railways men
hauled scab coal during strikes Of
the miners, but there has never been
real solidarity between the hard and
soft coal diggers themselves.
Though Lewis and other takers
within the u. M. w. A. have always
pretended to be for solidarity. They
have permitted the hard and soft coal
agreement to expire at different times
and have never fought for a real ma
tional agreement covering the entire
Industry.
If the anthracite miners lose this
strike it win be one Of the great
est blows apossible against the soft
coal miners and all organized labor
Not only will it mean further weak
ening of the miners union, but once
the operators are able to smash the
resistance of the hard coal miners,
they will be able to turn their atten-
ton towards forcing down the stand
ards of the bituminous miners to an
even lower level.
On the other hand, by joining in

Small Sides with
the Khan in Barring
Sheriff from Hefrir

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, May S.-George
Galligan, "exiled' sheriff of William
son county, wants to go back to Mar
ion and exercise his constitutional
right to act as sheriff. But Attorney
General Oscar Carlstrom disfavors the
plan and probably will exercise every
power to prevent it.
This was the report current today
in circles close to Governor Len Small
following conferences between the
chief executive and Galligan.
The proposition that Galligan could
stand on the authority of his Office
and go back any time he chose met
only a negative shake Of the head
and the remark that "Carlstrom is
very powerful-moral suasion--and
probably has other means of prevent
ing his return"

SCHEDEL CASE
FELONY CHARGE
NOLLE PRESSED
But Deportation Is Still
Possible

The Labor Defense Council has re-
ceived the information from Wash
ington, d. c., that the government has
nolle pressed the case against John
Schedel, charging him with the crimi-
nal offense of having returned to this
country after once being deported.
John Schedel was deported to Ger.
many in 1920 as red, but, because
his family Of wife and several
children were forced to remain behind,
and, moreover, they we're all American
born, Schedel, unable to accumulate
enough in starving Germany to trans
port his loved ones to that country
returned, it is understood, without
legal permission, last autumn.
He was at once arrested and not
only held for deportation, but charged
with the felony, so provided by the
immigration law, of having returned
after once being deported. 1t is this
charge which is now dismissed by the
department of justice
The department of labor, however
still has the case of deportation pen
ding. The immigration commissioner
at Chicago has notified the Labor De.
Tense Council that it has been advised
Of the dismissal of the criminal
charge, and that further hearing on
the deportation charge will be held
soon.

TRIES TO FRAME

AT COPENHAGEN
Conspiracy A g ain S t
Russia Revealed
Especial to The Daily worker.)

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, May s.
There is apparently an international
conspiracy to attack the Communist
movement under the lying fairy tale
of Moscow" plots to assassinate pub
lie officials and cause riots"
No better example could be given
than the present incident revealed by
the minister from Soviet Russia to
the Danish capital. The minister, M.
Kobetzky, reported to Count Won
Moltke, Danish minister of foreign
affairs. that the Soviet legation had
been visited by two men who offered
to murder the leading social demo
Gratis, including the Danish premier,
T. Staining, to set fire to important
buildings in Copenhagen and to Ear
range riots"
The Soviet minister naturally, re-
fused all their offers, explaining that
such Individual acts Of violence do
not harmonic with the Communist
principle of mass action by the whole
exploited population, and, as stated,
notified the Danish officials, who plac-
ed the men under arrest.
In spite of this, the capitalist press
has come out brazenly with lying
stories charging that the men, a
Swede and a Frenchman, are I'm
league with Communists" The OBJ
vious absurdity of the Soviet minis
ter reporting the matter contradict
ing any Communist plots" manufac-
tured in Moscow" has not restrain
ed the capitalist press from the at
tempt to alarm the country and the
world with new manufactured plots"
by Communists.
Communists look upon this new
mendacity of the reactionaries as fur
Their proof Of the recent conspiracy
of the great imperialist powers to in
tensify and to spread the white ter
ror turnout Europe.

membership.
Officials Work Steam Roller.
The previous meeting, which was
attended by Levin and his gang, voted
against the proposal of the official
dom that Bramorski's suspension be
continued. But the chairman at the
behest of Levin declared in true
steam roller style, that the proposal
to take Bramorsh off the job and
keep him off was carried.
This time, the workers of Local 3S
were up in arms and in no uncertain
tones demanded that the officers quit
preventing members from earning a
living on account of political opin-
ions at variance with the yellow So
cialist crew represented by Levin.
Members Protest.
Over 300 members packed the hall
when the local officials opened the
meeting. With the reading Of the
minutes of the previous meeting, the
storm broke. The members rose up
to their feet en- masse demanding
that the part of the minutes be re-
jected which had falsely recorded the
motion carried to suspend Bramorski
Brother Bramorski, whom the chair
man, L. Kochanski, had threatened
to throw downstairs" If he entered

previous meeting he had declared the

not seem to remember his promise

stairs. In fact he forgot the matter
completely.

SOVIET RULE RONORS
REAL DISCOVERER OF

Especial to The Daily Worker)
LENINGRAD, U. S. s. r., May 8.
Ceremonies were held turnout
Russia yesterday in honor Of the
memory Of Prof. Alexander PopoV
Of the Electro-TechnleaI institute,
who was the real discoverer Of wire
less telegraphy.
In 1895, two years before Gug-
IieImo Marconi demonstrated his APP
paratus, the Russians say, Prof. Po-
pow received radio signals thru a
thick concrete wall and later estab-
lished successful wireless contact
between ST. Petersburg (the present
Lenlnerad) and a station in the gulf
Of Finland.
His first practical test, according
to local records, was carried out in
1899, when during heavy storm
at sea he received a distress call
from steamer, as result of which
many lives were saved.
His subsequent labors, according
to the Soviet historians, received
but scant recognition from the i'm
perlal government and he died in
poverty in 1905.

With such mighty forces as these

April Strike Surprises Operators
Strike was declared in this region
around the second week in April,
much to the surprise of the local
bourgeoisie as in the past few years
they had found the coal miners in this
section rather meek and docile wage
slaves, owing to the fact that they
were not organized and so could not
do anything.
All of the mines in this vicinity, the
Ben Franklin Coal mine, the Glendale
Coal mine, the Richiand Marshall Coal
mine, and the PARIS Run mine had
cut the wage scale within the last
few months and now were going to
repeat the performance
Miners Fight Second Wage Cut

coal barons few years ago having
completely succeeded in disorganizing

strike. They are to meet again to-
night, all of them, to hear what pro-

They can vote to strike at any time

Plan to Wreck Union.
John ]. Stanley, the president of
the Cleveland Railway company,
against which the Streetcar Mems
Union is at war, is following very
.definate union wrecking policy, which
is very apparent to any militant, even
that it may be probable that many
Cleveland union leaders cannot see it.
A year ago, when the Streetcar
Mems Union demanded closed shop
and II cent wage rise, he offered
them a closed shop and sc wage rise.
When the courts decided that closed
shop for a public utility enjoying a mo-
nopoly was illegal, Stanley changed
his offer to read - cent wage adj
vance and the open shop.
Today he is hiding his real purpose
to wreck the Street Car Mems Union
behind the promise not to interfere
with seniority rights of the men, nor
with their union, nor will he refuse to
deal with the union. He wants to keep
the men from striking and still gain
his ends. And the end he has in view
he cutely states in a letter to the
union, which among many promises
contains these words: "You may con
tinue as a union member il you wish.
We viii treat you the same whether
you are a member or not a member.
Wages and working conditions will
remain as above stated whether you
act individually or collectively"
Exposes Plot Of Traction Trust.
Plain enough, surely. All that now
need follow is for him to organize,
among the weaker mortals and strike
breakers he may hire, group that re-
fuses to have anything to do with the
union. Then the first sledge-hammer
