HERRIOT TO
TAKE POST
OF premier
BRAND Fails to Form
Coalition Cabinet
Especial to The Daily worker)

PARIS, June 1e.-Edouard Herrlot,
leader Of the radical socialist" party,
tonight agreed to form a cabinet
after the attempt to do SO by the past
premier, Aristide BRAND, had failed.
Herriot accepted the mandsle from
President Doumergue after the latter
had been notified by BRAND that he
was unable to form ministry because
Herriot's party would not collaborate
in forming a national union" cabinet
from all right and some Of the left
bloc parties.
Fall of Franc Behind 1t,
AS Herriot had refused to take part
in Brands venture, which was under
taken as an attempt to unite sufficient
forces in hopes of stopping the disas-
trous fall of the franc, friends of
BRAND declare that he will decline to
serve in any position in the Herriot
ministry and will pass on the min
istry of foreign affairs, which he has
occupied at the same time as the
premiership, to someone of Herriot's
choosing.
Reliable reports from inner circles
say that some powerful French bank
ing interests which are close to Her
riot and other left leaders, even being
on friendly terms with Leon Blum of
the socialist party, were opposed to
BRAND and wished Heriot TO replace
him.
BRAND Altogether Out
BRAND, in an interview, stated that
the caucus of the radical socialists"
would not permit Herriot to accept a
cabinet post with BRAND in the pre-
mier's post, hence he had to quit.

GARY, Open SHOP
HE'LL, DEGRADES
Steel WORKERS
Sanitary Conditions are
Unspeakable
Especial to The Daily workerl


GARY, Ind, June 1Ss-Around the
open heart and all rolling mills the
Iaborers in this paradise of the open
shop hell Of steel and iron suffer many
miserable conditions. At all mills the
drinking water, SO needfut to men
working at top speed in an inferno Of
molten metals, is obtained from wells.
There Is only one we'll to whole mill
and no provision is made to get the
water to the workers.
The men have to go to the we'll
with buckets, often waiting in line
for 10 to 20 minutes and carry the
water back to the place of work. On
their way, however, they must dodge
the huge cranes and crawl between
them, always in danger of having
their lives crushed out.
Dirty Lake Water.
Where the mills have wash houses,
and not all have even this simple ne
cessity, they use lake water pumped
from the dirty frontage filled with
drainage and dead fish and all sorts
of disgusting filth.
No soap or towels are furnished by
the steel trust, altho this is supposed
to be done Where there are excuses
for wash houses there are not enough,
and thousands of workers daily have
to go home without washing, with no
place either to change clothes or
clean up.
In the street cars the men are
packed like sardines, $50 or more to
the car, still covered with CRIME and
sweat from their work and packed
so as to suffocate each other with
their odor, let alone making them
selves obnoxious to other passengers.
No Washing Here.
In the American Sheet and Tin
Plate Company there is no wash house
at ALL Workers must come and go in
dirty clothes. There is even no place
to wash their hands before eating
lunch. Here there is one foreman to
each four men, driving them at top
speed. The wages for common labor,
the hardest WOrk, are 40 cents an
hour. If the men work at tonnage
rates the rate is cut if they make
more than $3.50 or Sc per day
Accidents Every Day.
No day in the steel mill passes but
what there is an accident of greater
or lesser horror to the workers, all
caused by the terrific speed up, caus-
ing the workers to step into danger
and undertake extra hazards to hold
their jobs and make a wage barely
able to exist. 1t is physically impos-
sible to be safe and still work in the
steel mills.
Every month the slave drivers, the
foremen, are called into a meeting,

REAL MURDERER
CONFESSES IN
vANZETTI CASE
Affidavit Gives N e u,
Hope to Defense
BY ESTHER LOWELL.

Federated Press staff Correspondent.
BOSTON, Mass, June fs.-New
hope for freedom for Nicola Saeeo and
5artolomeo Vanzetti after six years
of Imprisonment is based on the con-
fession of ceIestino Madeiros. himself
awaiting execution as a twice-eonviet
ed bank holdup slayer, revealed for
the first time today. The confession
Of Madeiros is supported by strong
corroborating affidavits filed with a
motion for a new trial.
Two Weeks Gained.
Defense Attorney William G.
Thompson won two weeks more from
Judge Webster Thayer in order TO Sc
cure further afidavits which will
make the proof of the innocence Of
Sacco and Vanzetti most conclusive.
In his motion, Thompson disclosed
he fact that he had had eighteen af-
idavits and now hopes to have more
than twenty-five. One of the strone,
est of these is from United States
Marshal Richards, who arrested the
notorious Morelli gang, from Provi.
dence, R. l., for stealing from freight
cars. The Morellt gang took Madeiros
on the South Braintree pay roll rob
berry murder for which Saceo and
Vanzetti were convicted. The afidav-
lis Of the defense show this. The Mo.
relli gangsters are now serving terms
in federal prisons, while Madeiros
waits in Dedham Jail for the outcome
9f his appeal for third trial.
Weeks, the companion in crime OF
Madeiros after the South Braintree at.
fair is in Charlestown prison serving
a life sentence. He told what Madei.
ros had told him, and thus helped the
defense despite the attempts of the
state police TO intimidate him and
prevent him from giving the informa.
ton.
Attorney Thompson told the court
that the state is not cooperating in
getting the real criminals in the
South Braintree affair and thus saw.

!. [. 0. Urges Renewed FIGHT.

The publication OF the confession
of Celestino Madeirios should be the
signal for increased and intensified
activity of the workers for Sacco and
Vanzetti' said James P. Cannon. sec
rotary Of International Labor Defense.
The absolute innocence Of Sacco and
Vanzetti was proved long ago and this
new revelation contained in the con
fession of Madeiros only gives added
confirmation to what has always been
known TO all who have interested
themselves in the case, including
those who are determined TO take the
lives of the two Italian workers. The
Sacco-Vanzetti conferences which are
now taking shape turnout the country
must make the labor movement ring
with the slogan: Life and Freedom
for Sacco and Vanzetti' This slogan.
backed by the workers, will free Sacco
and Vanzetti and be the most powerful
warning to the reactionary interests
that the legal murder of innocent
workers cannot be carried out unchal-
lenged."
