HUSBAND AND WIFE DIE
OF STARVATION IN CITY
ROASTING OF ITS CULTURE
Especial to The Daily worker)

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April t4-The
final chapter Of a tragedy at once
pitlful and cruel was written today
when Mrs. Ellen o'5rien, 63, who
was found dying Of starvation beside
the dead body Of her husband, James
J. o'5rien, Sc, died at the city
hospita. With the husband out Of
work and their money gone, the
aged couple had faced death to-
aether.
In their apartment was found
twenty dollars In war savings
STAN which they could
have redeemed and kept the wolf
from their door for a few days long
er. The couple, however, thot that
the stamps, which they had pur-
chased during the world war, were
gifts to the boys in service instead
Of representing loan to the govern

enough for these men. They're only
bunch Of tramps, hoboes and drunk
en- dogs anyway" And the salvation
army still has the nerve to go out on
the streets Of Chicago and sing, pray
and preach about Jesus to the very
workers whom they hate and still try
to get the workers to pitch their hard
earned nickels and dimes on the drum
for Jesus.
The salvation army is a capitalist
salvation, organized by the capitalist
class, to go among the workers preach
ing Jesus, to try to make the workers
think about Jesus and not about the
horrible condition that they are in so
the workers will not organize and try
to improve their material conditions.
They tell us that we must love our
master, be obedient, work hard, save
our money and go to heaven when we
die.

Latin-American Editors
Hear B urleson Ally
Talk About Gree Press"

WASHINGTON, April IA. Address.
ing himself, on behalf of the senate
democrats, to the visiting Latin-Amer,
lean newspaper editors and publish
ers who were received in a body at
the capitol, Senator Robinson OF
Arkansas declared that freedom OF
the press is written into our funda-
mental law" He went on to say that
Americans regard newspapers as es-
sential to both the material and spirit
ual progress OF this nation, and that
the people prefer license to having
this press freedom restricted or linn
tied.
Robinson was one Of the most ar.
dent supporters Of Postmaster General
Burleson during the war in suppress
sion OF the anti-war press and the
radical press which pointed out the
class character OF the conflict and its
profiteering consequences.

Workers Songs for Our League

DROLETARIAN songs are an impor-
4 tant matter for our league. Revo-
.utionary songs are necessary for the
proletariat, too. The experiences of
the Passaic strike show US that the at
tempts to learn songs were met with
great enthusiasm by the strikers.
Mass singing by marching picket
lines of Solidarity Forever" Hold the
Fort, for We Are Coming" ETC., is one
of the means OF keeping together the
Passaic strikers, developing their un
derstanding OF class interest and in a
C rtain degree the development of their
Revolutionary spirit.
As a general fact, our league does
not know the revolutionary songs, at
least it is a deprecated thing as yet
for the entire league.
Many reasons can account for this
fact. Among them are the facts that
the league neglected the working
youth; the league was completely alb
sorbed in the party factional fight and
as a consequence neglected the league
problems; the league in many in
stances was a duplicate of the party
mot only in composition $3.50 per cent
league members being party members,
but in the content Of the work, etc.
the methods OF work and the language
of the league which were not consid-
cred from the point Of view of young
workers, etc. And as a result instead
OF approaching the young workers we
isolated ourselves.
The attitude towards the revolution
airy songs is a reflection of the general

them writing about the strike and the
strikers. All they see in the strike is
Communism and Communists, but not
the just demands OF the strikers. The

they say to safeguard the interests
Of the people" But this is another
excuse to help the bosses to break

The Young Workers League is with
the strikers and gives US great help.
They are the worst enemies Of the

interests of the people, why don't they
denounce the united front OF the
bosses, ku klux khan, American Legion
and people OF one religious belief
against the other; they breed hatred
between the white people and the col
ored people. The American Legion
breeds hatred between the American
born workers and foreign.born work
ers. These organizations are the real
enemies Of the workers and civiliza-
ton.
On the contrary, the Young Work
ers (CommunisD League and Workers

that no religious and racial differ

create hatred. They say the real
enemies Of the workers are the bosses
and all the workers must unite and

The salvation army has some dumps
in the city, which are supposed to be
hotels for men. One OF these joints is
known as 1.-THE Workingman's Pal
ace" CD located in the six hundred
block on West Madison st.
Before the war the salvation army
charged fifteen cents per night and up,
for their rooms, while at the present
time the same joint charges thirty-flve
per night and up. During the recent
severe cold spell, the salvation army
charged fifty cents straight for rooms
and when they had only five or six
rooms left they would hold them up
for seventy-five cents or one dollar per
night.
These rooms are of the cage type.
Small, with little more than enough
room in them for an army cots ne,light
in the room and no heat, s.a1tho there
are radiators at distant intervals out
in the hallway, but they are so few In
number that they are of no, comfort,
to the man who is trying to sleep in
onesof the rooms. The rooms are con-
structed on the order of a Jail CELL
with chicken net wire over the top Of
them. The Railways are narrow and
dark and it is very hard for you to
see the numbers on the doors, the
lights being small electric bulbs, max
ing. very dim light. = 9g wsI
There is no ventilation, the air is
poor and very unhealthy. You can
hear the man in the next room snor-
ing, grooming or scratching for bed
bugs or lice. The beds are furnished
with mattresses that were new when
the hotel was built and very few have
been changed since. War is declared
every night between the lice and the
bedbugs, the men sleeping infthe beds
are forced to take part in the -strug-
gle and in most cases the men are de-
feated. Eset
Hot and cold water is furnished in
the Mushroom but the towels are
usually filthy and the soap is general
ly ordinary laundry soap. Some of the

have not. When you sleep where there
is no bath you must go out to bath
house or to some barber shop where
they have baths.
The men sleeping in these points are
the proletarian elements who get the
very lowest wages. They have to get
rooms that correspond to their low
wage and the worker who can afford
to pay seventy-five cents or one dollar
per night thinks too much Of his life
and health to attempt to sleep in such
joints as the above mentioned. Many
of the men who sleep in the joint are
the unemployed workers who are
broke have to sleep in these joints or
walk the streets all night and freeze or
get thrown into jail for vagrancy. So,
they choose to try the lousy beds
rather than to have to try to get -just-
ice in capitalist court. because they
all know that it is impossible to get
justice.
One of the oficials of the salvation
army had this to say about the unfor
tunate workers who have to sleep in

HUTCHINSON is
STUNC AGAIN BY
N. Y. CARPENTERS
Local Refuses to Turn
Over Its Books
BY A. NAlLWAcKER,
worker Correspondent.)

NEW YORK, April 14.--At a meet.
ing Of Carpenters Local Union No
S76 held on April 5, Hutcheson's gem
eral executive board member Guerin
appeared for the second time with a
letter from President Hutcheson or
dering the local to turn all books and
records over to him.
For the second time the local re
fused and passed motion that the
books will be shown only while they
are in possession Of the local and in
the presence of the local officers. The
only difference in action was that for.
merly there were 81 votes for the mo-
ton and 2 against, while now there
were 81 votes for the motion and
nothing against.
Hutcheson's Friends.
Local No. 376 has expelled a few Of
Hutcheson's friends for embezzling
funds and since then he has been us
ing their appeal as an excuse to get
possession of the books in order to
clear them and frame up the progress
siye officers. With the evidence in
his hands nothing could be done.
Members speaking for the motion
pointed out that every principle that
stood for the interests of the rank
and file such as job control, world
trade union unity, amalgamation, Ia
Dor party, and many other progress
sive measures were declared uncon.
stitutional, at the same time any To-
cal that dared challenge his mislead-
ership was expelled, suspended or 9TH
erwise disorganized on the excuse
That they violated the constitution.
Rosen Talks.
Morris Rosen, former progressive
candidate for general president, who
is president of Local Union No. S76,
explained the cases of how Hutcheson
unconstitutionally expelled 16 mem
bers Of Los Angeles, w. F. Burgess of
Philadelphia, five members from Chi
cago, how Walsh of New York, for
mer candidate for vice-president, was
expelled, how local No. PITT is re-
fused the right to elect their own off,
GERS because they oppose Hutcheson
and finally the story of the Detroit
explosions.
In every case they were expelled
for fighting in the interests Of the
membership and now Hutcheson is
out to crush Local No. 376 because
they circularized the progressive car
penters' campaign program in all the
locals. And as to violations of the
constitution, Rosen declared that
Hutchinson has more violations to his
credit in expelling members without
trial than any one else.
Seab Agreement.
The signing OF the Chicago scab
agreement and the expulsion of So
locals in New York in 1916, because
they refused to take so cents per day
less than they were getting is a most
contemplate piece Of work.
Loud cheers greeted Rosen's state
ment when he said that IL car
Hutcheson will try his expulsion pol
icy with Local No. 376, he would get
a worse beating than he got in De-
troit. After this drubbing Guerin and
his crew walked out.

CONVICT MINERS IF KANSAS PRISON ARE
 LOCKED IN MII!E
MUTlNY 75o FEET UNDER SUR FACE, SEIZE MINE SHAFT CAGE; HUNGER WILL
 SETTLE DISORDER

LANSING, Kansas, July 10. tPD- Sixteen officer, guards and 375 miner convicts are locked in the coal mines of the Kansas penitentiary, 730 feet below the surface of the ground after a mutiny. The convict miners who mutined, blocked the cage in the shaft making it impossible to send help down to the guards prisoners tied to the cage at the bottom of the shaft. Telephone wires have been cut.
 Prison officials expressed no great concern over the safety of the guards and said the mutineers would end their resistance and come out when they felt the pangs of hunger. The warden said he will make no effort to send additional guards below. Tn fact, it is doubtful if the shafts bot tom can be reached without the use of the cage which is in possession of the convicts. A group of prisoners tied the cage down several years ago and refused for some time to come out but there was no serious trouble.

his conclusions. The physicist has
come to his aid and in many in
stances can now duplicate in the
laboratory the things the astronomer
has seen in the sky. Such a labora-
tory has been established in Pasa-
dena, working in close cooperation
with the Mount Wilson Observatory.
AS a result the astronomer can check
his observations with carefully con-
trolled tests in the physical labora-
tory. This rather definitely removes
much of the doubt that once hindered
astronomical progress.
But if these researches fire the
brain with a sense of the appalling
breadth of the universe in which this
world of ours is scarcely as large
as speck of dust, and carry the
imaginative off on eerie journeys
into utter space. there have been
other Investigations to intrigue ones
thoughts and fairly stagger his mind
with the possibilities these studies
hold for human progress. Not the
least of these Investigations are being
carried out at the institutions de-
partment of 'embryology. which, for
reasons of accessibility to co-opera-
ton with kindred researches, is To-

There the very story of human
creation itself is being studied. In
embryological researches, however, it
is far more difficult to pick out the
more important advances that have
been made in the past year than in
astronomy. One can see the stars
and they have been objects of Won
der since the dawn of man. But,
although many persons have pom
dered at some period of their lives
over the mystery of creation, the
great mass of civilization has taken
it for granted and preferred not to
dwell on the subject too long.
Working ever on, however. the en-

Although possession of accurate in

IN it's famous collection Of embryonic

conception to the time of birth, the
department of embryology has an eX-
ceptional history of the formation of
the human heart. Naturally, however,
these examples were taken from en-
bryos that had died. When and how
and where the heart began to beat and
drive the streams Of life blood through
the living embryo were the logical
questions to ask next.
Since dead hearts could not supply
