lelect Jensen and defeat Bobzin, but
to no avail.
The fight of the Jensen machine
against the progressives was marked
by the usual cry Of "reds!" Before the
election Jensen machine supporters
distributed thousands of circulars that
lad as the leading argument:
1.-THE opposition candidates were
hand-picked by the Reds in a caucus
dominated by Reds. All are sponsored
by the Reds" etc.
Beside the figures quoted above of
Bobzin's majority over Jensen, the
following are the reported returns for
the other Offices:
Other Returns.
John Stevenson, progressive candi-
date for vice-president, wins against
J. Arthur Palmgren by a vote of 1858
to $3.50.
For warden, the progressive. Frank
Larsen, shows 6,65S against Dick Oh
sen, with 4,74O, and VIM. osterhaus.
with 1885.
For outside business agent. Louis
Long, progressive, shows returns of
1884; the progressive, Frank Stahl,
1871, against Mary d. Taylor, with
5716, and Tom Ratcliff's 1858. About
a tie so far.
For inside business agent. Anton
JOhannsen, progressive. leads a field of
five, with 5,SsS, closely pressed by only
one, Ben Whitman, with 5,8S7.
For finance committee, with three 10
elect, the progressive, James Somer
leads the field with S,716, with two
administration men, Fred J. Bush and
John c. Miller, getting 6.514 and 7,774,
respectively.
A Reply to Jensen's open-shop Policy.
For the arbitration board, with four
to elect, the three progressives run
ming were defeated by the administra-
ton on the face Of the returns. Like
wise, in the contest for secretary
treasurer. the Jensen machine candi-
date, Charles H. Sand, appears on the
returns to have defeated the progress
i've, Dan H. @. Friedrichsen, by vote
of 9,422 to CLIO.
The progressives. however. although
likely to contest the returns from To-
Gals where the Jensen machine manip-
ulated the ballots, are satisfied with
the result as whole and regard it as
a smashing rebuke to Jensen's cater
ing to the open shop in the building
trades.

on the executive committee.
A letter Of the Sacco-vanzetti De-
Tense Committee of Boston was read
IN which 1t was pointed out that new
evidence had been unearthed prov.
ing the innocence Of the two Italian
workers and tho the confession of Ma.
deiro enabled the defense to stay the
motion of the prosecutor for setting
date on which these two workers
were to be murdered by the state of
Massachusetts, 1t was necessary for
an labor organizations to aid Sacco
and Vanzeth to get a new trial.
DR.. John A. Lapp, president OF the
Chicago Liberal Glib and a member
OF the American Civil Liberties I'm.

pledged to do all he could to get
justice for Sacco and vanzetti.

The delegates from the various un.
IONS, Denent societies and workers
organizations were urged to report
back to their organizations and have
them send kilograms and letters to
Gov. Alvan T. Fuller, State House,
Boston, Mass, demanding new trial
for Sacco and Vanzetti.
1t was decided to circulate petitions

MOROCCAN MESS

Problems Raised
Especial to The Daily Worker

especial to The Daily Worker)
WASHINGTON, June 13.-Oficial
circles here are still undecided as to
the attitude Of the United States in
the event of an international confer
ence to decide the fate of the Riff.
The defeat Of Abd-el Krim has
stirred up hornets nest in Europe.
The Italian press is demanding insist
emily that Italy have seat in any
conference affecting North African ter
ritory and that the division of the
Riff into spheres of influence be not
discussed without discussing also the
control of Tangier, strategically To-
Gated directly across the straits from
Gibralter.
France and England Against
Conference.
Neither France or England wants
such a conference and are anxious to
preserve the existing arrangement for
the time being.
There is the possibility that in such
"a conference, with Spain and Italy
present the whole question of the con-
troll of the Mediterranean area might
be raised.
Italy is not satisfied with the pres
ent arrangement and wants more of a
voice in decisions in which Italian in
terests as Mediterranean power are
involved.
U. s. Attitude Undecided.
Secretary Of State Kellogg has made
no announcement as to the attitude of
the government towards participation
in such conference, but it is known
definitely that the department has
been studying the Moroccan situation
for several months.
The withdrawal of Brazil from the
league of nations has given the seat
held by Spain importance in the light
of recent developments in Morocco
and unusual significance is attached to
the coming visit of King Alfonso to
London.
British pressure will doubtless be
exerted to keep Spain in the league.

facts developed, reveal the hypocrisy
of the attack on Newberry. It is
the hypocrisy of the progressive"
who tries to hide his unwavering
loyalty to the employing class un-
der cloak spun of high-sounding
phrases. 1t was another progress
sive," Hiram Johnson, senator from
California, who showed his sym
pathy for the reactionary, Newberry,
by falling to appear in the senate on
the final roll call. The "pro-
gressives," Pinchot and Johnson,
are pretty much alike In other ways.
They both stand by idle and see
workers sent to prison by the cap
italists of their respective states.
In California it is Mooney and Bill
ings, Ford and Suhr, with hundreds
Of others. In Pennsylvania it>was
the victims Of the steel trust, espe-
cially those imprisoned, like Jacob
Dolla, as a result of the 1919 steel
strike.
Yet the huge sums at the disposal
Of labor's enemies, enabling them to
corrupt the voters, should in no way
discourage the working class in it's
own ambitions to develop its own
political power. The capitalist
political parties have always been
able to draft millions of dollars from
the great business interests. With
giant campaign funds they have
bought campaign workers" The
Pepper interests hired thousands of
them in Pittsburgh at $40 per head,
while the Ware forces could only
afford SIS each for poll watchers.
But these poll workers have never
risen above the roll of Hessians.
They have constituted mercenary
army.
Against capitalism's hirelings, la
Dor must depend on its own volun-
tary workers. The time will come
when the workers Of Pennsylvania,
thru their labor party, will have a
hundred thousand volunteers, whose
service will be worth much more
than a million dollars, spreading
thru the state the truths of the class
struggle.
Governor Pinchot confessed that
altho the officials of the United
Mine Workers of America were loud
in support of his candidacy, he had
received no financial aid from this
source. This shows that even Pin
chot. the progressive" could not
rally the whole-hearted support Of
the rank and file mine workers. The
Pinchot money that was spent
among the coal miners came out of
Pinchot's own campaign fund.
But the hundreds of thousands of
Pennsylvania coal miners. when
they have been awakened to strug-
gle thru their own labor party, will
give unstintingly of their time and
funds, in support of their own can
didates.
When the Pepper henchmen came =
for their money, it looked like a run
on bank. said the witnesses. They
were attracted by the CLINT OF gold.
Labor will mass of its own Volt
ton for its own fight when it be-
comes conscious of its own interests
in the struggle for its own enamel
patton.
The ruling class, which includes
Pinchot as well as Pepper and Ware,
will always use its gold to the best
possible advantage. Let labor make
the best use Of its great numbers.
Then labor will win.

Labor's Numbers Can
Win Against the Gold
Hoards of Capitalists
BY }. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

"NTEWBERRYISM" has been a
broad chalk line supposed to
divide the progressives from the
conservatives in the United States
senate. The present investigation
Of huge slush funds expended in the
recent Pennsylvania senatorial pri-
maries has acted like huge wet
sponge to entirely obliterate that
chalk line. Governor Clifford Pin
chot, the progressive, is in the same
boat with the big business twins,
Senator George Wharton Pepper
and Representative William Scott
Ware.
This is the most interesting and
significant fact thrown to the sur
face by the first few days testi-
mony revealing the giant struggle,
in which rivers of gold played a
most prominent part, for control Of
the republican party in Pennsyl-
vania. These few days have run the
total of primary expenditures for
the three candidates up to $1,422,-
ZIG which, it is pointed out, is seven
times the amount that caused the
unseating of Truman H. Newberry,
elected senator from Michigan, and
exceeded the entire outlay of the
1924 democratic presidential cam
paign.
The Pinchot expenditures pegged
In at the high figure of $4,000,
which just equalled the amount con-
tanned in the campaign barrel
opened by Newberry to grease his
way into the 'Millionaire's Club" at
Washington. One of Chords chief
contributors was his brother, Amos
Pinchot, who made a practice Of at
taching himself, thru the now de-
funct Committee of 49," even to
the farmer-labor movement. The
Pinchot family had the money and it
was not backward in spending it to
promote one of its members from
the Pennsylvania governorship to a
United States senatorship.
1t was Ptnchot who led the fight
during the Roosevelt administration
in the so-called Ballinger scandal,
the Teapot Dome" affair of two
decades ago. Pinchot was heralded
as the savior Of Americas forests
against the interests of loot and
plumber. AS a result he gained
somewhat of reputation that he
has exploited ever since, as a cham
pion of "the people"
The kept press will not drum up
great wave of moral indignation"
over the Pennsylvania exposures.
Instead it can be depended to paint
the ousted Newberry as a martyr
and overlook the facts brought to
light in the present probe. Thus the
Chicago Tribune declares:
Senator Newberry was not de-
MED his seat in the senate, but he
resigned because of the row over it,
and every pink in the country as
well as many partisan organs and
politicians who know better have
cited his case repeatedly as an in
stance Of deplorable abuse of wealth
and ruthless corruption.
I'VE thought and think his resig-
nation was a mistake in every
respect. Senator Newberry should
have fought back. He was the vic
tim OF a political assassination. The
case was a triumph of hypocrisy"
