AMERICAN COAL
USED TO BREAK
BRITISH STRIKE
Send $4,000 Tons of
Coal to England

BALTIMORE, June 16.-Is Ameri-
can coal being used to break the Brit
ish mine strike? British Parliamen-
tary Secretary Lane-Fox of the mines
department announces that no Ameri-
can coal whatever had been received
in England since the beginning of the
strike May 1. He said that the $1,000
tons imported since May l had all
come from European countries.
But since Lane-Foxs statement was
made the Consolidation Coal Co, Of
Baltimore has received orders for the
export of 100000 tons of American
coal Fifty thousand tons of this large
order are consigned to England, for
use by the railroads, power houses and
other public utilities, it is announced,
and the rest is to be shipped to Italy
and the Argentine, to markets usually
supplied with British coal. The coal
is to be shipped from Baltimore and
Hampton Roads.
Exports of United States coal to
South American countries generally
have increased since the British mine
strike began, and it is now reported
that Norway and other Scandinavian
countries will place large orders in
America, seeing that their needs can
not be met by Britain.

MORE JOBS IN ILLINOIS THAN
LAST YEAR, BUT TEN PER CENT
UNDER 1923; LABOR SHIFTING

Employment in Illinois factories ap-
pears to be holding it's own despite a
general downward tendency in the
country as whole. According to the
May report of the state department
of labor the total falling off since the
high point in March was only six
tenths of 1 per cent. A year ago the
drop from March to May was per
cent and in 1924 nearly per cent.
This years falling off of employ
ment meant loss of jobs to less than
5000 workers. 1t leaves employment
nearly 41s per cent ahead of May,
1925. But there are still about $4,000
fewer workers on Illinois factory pay
rolls than in May, 1924, and $4,000
fewer than in May, 1928. The three
year decline is over 10 per cent.
1872 Men to Each 100 Jobs.
The free employment Office bears
out the general optimism of the de-
partment's survey. But there is a
surplus of workers for jobs. There
were 122 applicants for each 100 jobs

trial centers the news is not encour-
aging. The closing of the locomotive
shops at Bloomington because of ex-
treme depression in business" threw
$50 out of employment, while reports
from Belleville assert that 5000 are
out of work In that region. The re-
vival of road building thruout the
state and the fact that building con-
tractors increased the number of
workers on their payrolls 1873 per
cent during May cut down the number
unemployed.
Worker Still Suffers.
Figures show that comparatively
stable employment thruout industry
as a whole does not necessarily spell
stability for the individual worker. He
must shift from an industry laying of
men to one increasing its force or join

ployed.

On the same ship with Borno came
circulars of protest from the Haitian
patriotic societies, denouncing Borno
as a usurper and fraud.
Russell and Borno," said one of
these letters, ARE boasting the prog
ress and prosperity of Haiti under
their despotic leadership. There is
not a word of truth in that PROPOSE
ton. The country is under the heav-
lest burden that it has ever expe-
rienced since it became nation in
1904. The people of Haiti are getting
poorer every day by the continual in
crease OF the taxes and customs du-
ties. Haitian laborers are paid from
20 to 80 cents, American money, day,
with a deprecated currency called
gourde. How can a man live on such
a wage? II is9why they are leaving

$4,000 SUIT
FILED AGAINST
SIX POLICEMEN
Passaic Strikers Bring
Police to Civil Court

PASSAIC, N. j., June 15.-Civil
suits amounting to $4,000 damages
have been brought against six Passaic
policemen in the circuit court by Ben
jamin Lavanski, Polish organizer for
the United Front Committee, and John
Ricci.
Severe Beating.
Benjamin Lavanski, an atcive or
ganizer for the United Front, has been
threatened by police many times for
his successful work. On May they
seized the opportunity to punish him
by beating him up and arresting him.
His was one of the most severe cases
Of beating during the strike and, as
usual, entirely unwarranted.
On May woman scab was hit by
tin can thrown by a mischievous
child. Many workers were about, it
being time for the few scabs to leave
the mill The police chased some
workers children and handled them
roughly
lavanski, who was standing near,
spoke to the police officer, asking him
not 10 frighten the child. and then to
the child, telling her to go quietly.
The cossacks seized that excuse. They
set upon Lavanski and beat him badly,
so that more than FIVE weeks after
ward he still bears the marks and is
under medical care. The officers
named are Herman Zober, Barney
Warsaw, Henry Berger, Peter Me.

After the beating and arrest of La
vanski he was charged with attempt
ing to incite the crowd to riot, but
was acquitted at his trial.
"BIoody Friday"
Bloody Friday" May IA, is still
echoed in the case of John Ricci
against Oficer John Van Hoven. On
this day, when scores Of strikers were
set upon and dubbed by police as
they were returning from the meeting

attacked on his own property and was
beaten by Van Hoven. The oficel

Ricci is asking for $4,000 and La
vanski is asking $4,000 damages.
Action In Civil Courts.
1t remains to be seen what the
courts will do in the civil cases. Il
has been established quite definitely
during the strike that no redress car
lie had from the criminal courts wher
a striker is beaten to unconsciousness
by the cossack police. In two at

That lunch marked the first

discomfort in Honey Lou.
1t was not like Honey Lou to
be disconnected.
She had always been so pleased
with any small pleasures that
came her way. So satisfied with
the clothes that Mrs. Huntley
copied for her from fashion books
and shop windows. So sure that
she and Margaret were the luck

everything that the heart could
wish for.
They had walked cheerfuiiy to
the movies on cold and rainy
nights as well az on fine, noonlit
ones.
