you see the United States has no
monopoly on those little incidents,
THE British coal mining industry is
L in bad shape. 1t can only be re-
habilitated to the satisfaction OF the
owners at the expense Of the miners
The British miners must work longer
hours for less pay so that the owners
may be able to compete with German
and Polish coal, which is turned out
more cheaply because the Dawes plan
forced the German miners to work
longer hours that hitherto and the
Polish government did the same for
the miners of that country.
A J. COOK stood out against re-
n duction in the miners wages or
a lengthening of the hours until now.
The right wing labor leaders are will
ing to give everything away. The
operators insist on Cooks head. The
right wing labor leaders are only too
willing. Dark but lively days loom on
the British labor horizon. What will
the rank and file do? Have they yet
developed the necessary leadership to
contest the field with the MacDonalds
and Thomasses? Not yet perhaps. But
time is on their side and the British
Communist Party which proved it's
metal during the general strike is
growing in numbers and in efficiency.
THERE is a revolution in Nicaragua
L and the still existing government
of that republic has protested to the
league of nations of which it is mem
Der against the alleged action Of a
Mexican warship in aiding the revo-
lutionary forces. Sometimes a South
American revolution is a good thing
to dodge explaining, but we note that
the revolutionaries attacked the head
quarters of the Bragman Bluff Lumber
company and the Standard Fruit
Steamship company of New Orleans.
We are for the revolutionaries until
further notice.
THE implications of Nicaragua's &C
i ton in relation to the Monroe
Doctrine completely eclipse the pro-
test itself. What if the United States
.resents the action of the league in in
terfering in a sphere over which the
United States has assumed the sole
right of political overlordship? The
Chicago Tribune points out that Mica
ragua's action is inconsistent with a
recognition of the Monroe Doctrine.
Unless the league watches its step
Uncle Sam may play with his whiskers
and put on that indignant look which
was becoming to him before he got so
disgustingly fat.

JOSEPH TUMULTY ENTERS CONTEST
FOR PRESIDENT OF ILLINOIS MINERS
UNION TO SUCCEED HARRINGTON

Sneed the vice-presidency. This is
believed satisfactory to the Peabody
interests. Sneed is just as reactionary
as harrington. John L. Lewis is NOV
ing every ounce Of influence he pos
sesses to install his own machine on
the ruins of Farrington's. But those
who claim harrington is thru because
of this exposure do not know what
they are talking about according to
Springfield union politicians. The Pea
body Coal company employs 10000
miners and the company's resources
are enormous. harrington with his
salary OF $4,000 a year and liberal
drawing account for emergency
work will be able to take over the
greater part of his union organizers
into the Peabody apparatus and con-
tinue his union-wrecking policy.
Walker Embarrassed.
Another political figure in the trade
union movement who will be embar-
raised by the Harrington exposure is
John H. Walker, president Of the Hi.
nois State Federation of Labor, form
er president of the Illinois Miners
Union and crony Of Farrington's.
Walker and harrington were named
by Senator Caraway as benefciaries
of the Samuel insult slush fund in the
recent primary elections. Both are
influential cogs in the Len Small ma
chine. Both supported Frank L.
Smith, and both are bitter foes Of
radicalism. Walker resented the impu-
tation that he would take money from
capitalist politician and he stated
that Harrington was equally pure.
Trouble at Convention.
The endorsement Of Frank L. Smith
VIII come before the state convention
Of the Illinois Federation Of Labor
and it is reported that Walker will be
seriously handicapped without the
presence of Frank harrington and his
army OF delegates. The miners union.
the fat janitors the building trades
and the teamsters' delegations are
the strongest numerically at state con-
ventions. The three latter have their
main strength in Chicago. They are
extremely reactionary and as the lead
ers do not always walk in the straight
and narrow path, legally, John II.
Walkers influence with Small comes
in exceedingly handy when those boys
need a pardon for one OF their jailed
gangsters
Johnny Draws His Pay.
In return for those considerations
Walker is allowed to retain his posi-
ton with a salary Of over 500 week,
which Is looked on as a miserable
pittance by less highly titled officials
Of some unions.
John Fitzpatrick and Ed. Nockels OF
the Chicago Federation Of Labor are
finding II more difficult every day to
face their old progressive friends. The
Frank l.. Smith scandal hit them
pretty hard and now comes the ex-
pose Of Harrington with whom they
we're associated in boosting Frank l.
Smith. Verify. indeed the way Of the

OPEN SHOP PACT
is TURNED DOWN
BY BOSS DYERS
Gary Cleaners and Dyers
Still Strike

GARY, Ind, Aug. 31.-An open shop
agreement between the Master Clean
ers' Association and the Cleaners and
Dyers Union Of Lake county signed
by officials Of each was turned down
by the Master Cleaners at a meeting
in Gary during which the Gary bosses
led a successful fight on the pact.
Betrayal Of Men.
Three members Of the executive
board Of the union signed the agree
ment which was to set up open shop
conditions in cleaning and dye1ng
shops of Lake county in which the
union had called strike. This was
entered into at the exclusion Of two
members of the board, Brothers Har-
ris and Inkenbrand who went to Chi
ago to see union officials about the
validity of such an agreement. They
were told, however, that nothing could
be done about it since it was signed.
But the action of the Masters AS
ISOLATION puts an entirely different
complexion on the affair. And the
union members who have been on
strike, most of them very indignant
about the agreement, will have their
say about it at meeting scheduled
for Tuesday night.
Open Shop Agreement.
The agreement declared for an open
shop arrangement to run until Janu-
airy at which time the dispute was ia
be arbitrated In the meantime the
bosses would impose their own condt
lions on the men. This agreement
was very bad for the men, especially
in view of the fact they stood a good
chance to win and that the retail men
were sympathetic to the union.
A representative of The DAILY
WORKER spoke to the latter at a
meeting of the retail association in
Gary. A speaker was supposed to
have been present from the Masters
Association but failed to appear. How
ever, the organization took no definite
stand.
Members Of the teamsters' union
have been delivering scab goods dur
ing the strike and the cleaners and
dyers' union is going to make an ap-
peal to stop this.
