Don't rush the season il the water

Some of the coast waters are cold

On the other hand. water in some

The danger in trying early season
swimming Is because of the difference
in the temperature Of the blood in
your body and the temperature of the
water you swim in.
Continued activity in cold water
lessons the danger. 1t Is true. but In
no case should a swimmer stay in
cold water too long at a stretch
Don't go into the water for an hour

HOPE TO SAVE
FRANC BY BOOK
KEEPING TRICK
Cabinet Refuses to Tax
Capitalists

PARIS, May 31-The cabinet coun-
Gil of Premier BRAND after continu-
Gus discussions on the financial situa-
ton, announces its opposition to in
creasing the taxation, as demanded
by the left parties because Of the es-
cape from taxation of enormous sums
of French capital while consumption
taxes are loaded on the already high
cost of living.
The cabinet also proposes that the
dealings between France and the Unit
ed States over the funding of the
French debt to America, be kept Sc
cret and not discussed in the cham
Der Of deputies.
The cabinet thinks that one check
on the downward fall of the franc may
be made by a bookkeeping trick OF
enforcing the entering amounts OF
liquid capital held abroad by French
men in a special account in the Bank
Of France, thus making the credit
side of the books look better, even
if the money is held in foreign coun
tries.

TERRORISM AIDS
GOVERNMENT TO
WIN ELECTIONS
Many Roumanian 7 owns
Denied Right to Vote

BUCHAREST, Roumania, May 30
The government party won rs per
cent of the parliamentary seats in the
recent elections. The Nationalist
Peasant combination won between 10
and 20 per cent and the Bratiano
party won the remaining seats.
Military Terror.
These elections in Roumania were
accompanied by the worst forms of
military terror imaginable. Whole
towns that were suspected of going
for the Nationalist-Pea party,
which is in opposition to the present
government party, were quarantined
and the populace denied the right to
vote.
Candidates on the Nationalist-Peas-
ant ticket were prosecuted. In some
sections they were thrown into jail
in order to prevent them from cleo
pioneering.
Murder Opposition Candidate.
In the Province of Ilfov an opposi-
ton candidate and a priest named
Turco were murdered by government
adherents with the assistance of the
gendarmes.
Gendarmes were used by the gov
eminent party in many of the village
election places to keep those who
might vote for the opposition candi-
dates out Of the polls. Raids were
staged on workers and peasants
homes in order to terrorize the work
ers and peasants and keep them from
voting against the government par
ties.
A joint protest was handed to King
Ferdinand by leaders Of the Nation
alist and Peasants parties In which
it charged that the parliamentary
elections had degenerated into "a mil
itary offensive on the part of the army
and the gendarmerie against the dem
ocratic forces of the country"

XII KLUX Chief
HELD FOR BOMB
THAT KILLED 8
Michigan Khan Leader
Accused of Murder
Especial to The Daily worker)


MUSHROOM. Mich, May 81 The
local leader of the ku klux khan and
constable under the laws of Michigan,
Asa X. Bartlett, is to be accused in a
warrant of the murder of three per-
sons killed by bomb sent thru the
mails of August Krubaech, which ex-
ploded when opened, killing Krubaech
and his daughter Jeanette, aged Is,
and her fiance, William R. Franks, of
Chicago.
The state prosecutor, r. Glen Dunn,
states that Bartlett admitted familiar
ity with explosives and boosted that
he was the only man in Blue Lake
townsA , who could make a bomb. In
addition, the outer wrapping on the
parcel sent thru the mails, being re-
moved before the inner one which set
off the explosion, remains intact and
shows labols identified as purchased
by Bartlett and handwriting similar to
his.
Besides this, gun without ham
mer was found in Bartlett's posses
sions, while the bomb was set by a
hammer found in Krubaech's body.
The hammer was arranged to be re-
leased when the string around the in
ner wrapping was loosened, permit
ting the hammer to fall by the action
of a spring on decorating cap that
set off the explosive contained in the
bomb. Two hammers were used to
make assurance doubly sure.

Muskogee Municipal
Pumping Station Is
Manned by Scabs

MUsKOGEE, Okla OPP When
the entire pumping crew at the Mus
kogee municipal waterworks walked
out on strike all places we're at once
filed by strikebreakers. There was
no violence and no sabotage.
The 1000 strike came as a protest
against the discharge of two employees
and is a result of the new anti-labor
city administrations effort to "clean
up the town"
It is said that none of the strikers
belong to a labor union. There is no
sentiment for organization noticeable
among workers in Muskogee.
