The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-08-24


IL Those two words ought to be
on the lips of every worker in the
: United States in support of the re-
lief campaign for the striking Brit
ish coal miners.
1t must be said that the workers
on this side of the Atlantic have
hardly started in their fight to help
their 100000 struggling comrades
in England.
Lets Got" declared Anton Johann
sen, who is directing the drive local
ly for the Chicago Federation of La
Dor. 1t was in the federation offices.
He was speaking to Paul McKenna,
member of the British Miners Fed
Grafton. 1t was early Saturday
afternoon. They we're ready to start
on their daily round of local union
meetings in the Chicago district.
But Paul McKenna, with Anton
Johannsen and the few others who
are working with them, constitute
but a very small company to reach
all of organized labor even in the
Chicago district. Similar drives in
other sections of the country, in
Boston, New York, Pittsburgh,
Cleveland and st. Louis must fall
equally short of the desired goal.
The whole labor movement, from
the grizzled veteran of many strug-
giles to the rawest apprentice must
say, Lets go!" And say it with
determination.
1--WE are going to get from $4,000
to $4,000 out of Chicago" declared
Johannsen to The DAILY WORK
Err. The campaign will no doubt re-
suit in that amount being raised.
1t looks like a good sum. But 1t
ought to be greater, when it is con-
sidered that more than a million
miners are on strike on the other
side, and that they have millions Of
dependents, women and children
starving for want Of food.
The Flat Janitors' Union voted
$1,000 while the Theatrical Stage
Employers Union, No. 2, gave 5000.
These two donations are a challenge
to hundreds OF other local unions
that ought to do as well or better.
McKenna is going to stay over UNI
till next Sunday to appear before
the monthly meeting of the Chicago
Typographical Union, No. 16. It is
understood that the printers will
vote 81 900. 1t is also learned that
the printers have about 100000 in
their treasury. Under these circum-
stances the $1,000 is not such
large sum. Better make 1t larger.
McKenna starts tonight on an
other weeks drive thru the Chicago
local unions. Every member Of the
unions listed below ought to turn
out and give the spokesman Of Brit
ish labor an enthusiastic greeting.
Then vote the largest possible sum
in aid of the cause that brought him
to the United States. The meetings
are as follows:

ILLINOIS MAY
ENJOY ANOTHER
PRISON SCANDAL

It's an Ill wind that does not change.
So said Sheriff Hoffman when Thomas
Ivers, alias Sullivan, implicated for
mer warden of Joliet penitentiary in
the recent attempted break OF several
prisoners from Cook county Jail,
which is one OF the county institu-
lions under the supervision Of Sheriff
Hoffman.
lvers says that Former Warden
Whitman Of Joliet permitted his es-
cape on payment of $1,000. After the
money changed hands the prisoner
was allowed to leave the Jail with Wis
itors.
Tact or Fable.
Shortly afterwards Ivers was re-
arrested. He demanded his money
back and received a check for $1,000
from Whitman. Whether this Is a
fact or a fable remains to be proved.
Whitman was a ward OF Len Small.

ing like normal babies.
"The babies are here; a doctors
duty Is to do what he can for them, ="
was the comment Of DR.. Thomas A.
Swami, attending physician for the
twins, Lucy and Bessie Medich. He
said an operation to separate them
would prove fatal.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Medich are
deeply shaken by the strange birth.
The mother, torn between mother love
and the anguish of the handicap of
her daughters, has expressed the hope
that the babies will pass from the
adapted.
Unlike the famous Siamese twins,
who were joined in such a way to
pervent locomotion, these twins, who
are Joined at the pelvic girdle, will
never be able to walk or move in any,
thing like a normal manner.
The babies seem to live separate
lives. Sometimes one sleeps while the
other is feeding. Physicians say that
should illness come to one it would
affect the other Similar twins, how
ever, have been known to survive for
years.
X.ray studies show that each child
is complete as to heart, lungs, stomach
and other internal organs. except that
