the history of trade unionism.
The fight is now on. Our men and
women are determined to resist all
attempts to reduce them to slavery.
They know the difficulties the strug.
gle involves. They have drawn the
sword and they have thrown away
the scabbard Of compromise. The
miners, at least, neither intend to
"grovel" for peace. nor whine for a
degrading settlement.
We are not fighting for fighting's
sake. The moment the government
can submit terms to us which will pro-
tect the miners from wage reductions
and increased hours of lalpr, we can
have peace in the coal industry.
The unbending character OF the
mine owners and royalty grabbers can
be seen in the curt manner in which
they turned down the governments
proposals. They do not object, very
much, to the governments terms, but
they do insist upon managing the in
dustry free from all governmental in.

The owners believe the miners have
been deserted by their trade union
friends, and that the time has now
come to batter them down into servIle
subsection. We warn the owners that
they are making the biggest mistake
in their lives. ~

There were over 5000 workers out

bosses that all the fur workers are
united in their continued demand for

war, gave Brookhart an eight
to five lead over Cummins.
All the resources of the legion in
Iowa were modified in a drive to
defeat Brookhart and it was generally
recognized that the activity of that
organization had the direct support Of
Wall Street, as MacNider is a banker
in Mason City and is, like Cummins,
a favOrite of the railroads.
An Anti-coolidge Vote.
The vote in this state is clearly an
anti-Coolidge vote, as Cummins was
everywhere recognized as the spokes-
man for the corrupt Wall Street adj
ministration that has consistently and
militantly fought against every other
section of the population in order that
great combinations of capital may
have their way.
The last-minute concern of Cummins
over the agricultural crisis was viewed
as a final desperate effort to stem the
tide that has been rising in Iowa
against the administration ever since
Coolidge delivered his sneering adj
dress before the farm conference in
Chicago early last winter.
A Newberry Senator.
Cummins has been one of the main
stays of the Mellon Coolidge majority
in the senate and voted for the seat
ing of the notorious Truman H. New
berry of Michigan who bought his way
into the senate by wholesale bribery.
The assistant secretary of war and
other bankers and legionnaires are
charged in many quarters with raising
a slush fund for Cummins that far
exceeds the amount used by Newberry
in Michigan a few years ago to de-
baueh the electorate and is said to
almost equal the Pepper slush fund in
the Pennsylvania primary.
Effect Widespread.
The result in Iowa will have wide
spread effect upon the fate of other
Coolidge senators and indicates GER
tain defeat of Lenroot of Wisconsin,
another Coolidge stalwart, who is
being challenged in the coming
primaries in that state by a La
Toilette candidate Especially handi-
capped is Lenroot because of his I'M
qualified endorsement by Coolidge two
weeks ago at the unwilling in Wash
ington of a statute of John Erickson.
1t is probable. in view of the sting
ing rebuke of Cummins, that the sur
viving senators will break with Coo
lidge, isolate him and his administra-
ton and proceed in the closing days
of the session to hasty adoption of
various farm relief panaceas in a des-
perate effort to save their own hides.
But their records are too we'll known
as supporters OF every obnoxious adj
ministration measure, from the world
court to wholesale cancellation of
European debts in order to accommo-
date the House of Morgan, for their
reputation Of Coolidge to save them
at this late date.

BIG PART PLAYED
BY COUNCILS OF
ACTION IN STRIKE
Were Real Fighting
Units in British Struggle
BY CHARLES AsHLEIGH
Exclusive to "The Daily Worker


One of the outstanding features of
the general strike was the important
part played by the Councils of action
and by the trades councils.
In most of the large industrial
centers the trades councils adopted
the excellent plan of fathering the
councils Of action, as being bodies
most adapted to tackling the problems
Of strike organization, publicity, pro
paganda, and the other functions of
a central working class body in times
Of crisis. In other places the trades
councils themselves undertook these
functions. The plan, however, Of
forming special body-under the au-
spices of the Trades Council-which
should center all the various activities
is decidedly preferable.
A realization Of Che splendid work
performed by these bodies may be
obtained from the perusal of the
numerous bulletins and other publica.
tons issued by them.
Work of Councils Of Action.
Such matters as the setting up of
local communications between the
various strike committees and the
councils, the patrolling of picket areas,
the prevention of profiteering by local
food dealers, the organization of mass
meetings, the provision of entertain
ments for the wives and children of
strikers, preparation for ensuFing food
supplies to the workers in their areas
these are example of the manifold
activities in which the councils of
lction engaged.
Rapid Growth.
1t is quite certain that, had the
general strike lasted longer, the pow.
ers and scope of the councils of action
would have been materially extended.
Formed. as most of them were, on the
spur of the moment these bodies grew
rapidly in strength and efficiency.
They were becoming the organic nerve
centers of strike activity In their local
tiles. They were the local stats, oper-
ating under the general staff-the gen
eral council.

in power, as in the labor boroughs of

counties of this state,
Don't permit your intelligence to be insulted
by vague whispers of tremendous sums being
expended in other counties, to corrupt the vot-
ers in favor of Ellinwood
You have not seen any evidence of this and
neither have the whispering henchmen of Hunts
who are trying to poison the minds of the voters
with this kind of smoke screen. e
They never charge that the money is being ex-
pended in the county where they are talking,
but always say that this is going on in the 9TH
