mob at bay while the trial of the Ne

that was determined to get Hardy
and lynch him, shouted fire" and in
the confusion attempts were made to
take Hardy from the courtroom.
This move was frustrated by the sher-
if.
On the day preceding his second
trial-which ended in a life sentence
for Hardy-attempts were made by
the lynchers to break into the Jail and
then lynch Hardy. This attempt
failed and at the second trial-which
also ended in a divided iury-troop.

The strike is over now. The work

would have furnished them"

Chicago by Section 6. Workers Party,

The recent vote in the Senate for

ton in the minds of the American
workers as to why this seemingly
sudden change of front.

speaker and writer who has recently
toured the eastern part of the coun-
try on this subject and has written a

possible moment so as not to interfere
with the immediate progress of all the
classes. Thursday evening has been
chosen as the most suitable for the

members will go before the nuclei to
lead the discussion on resolution and
decisions. All members of the D. E.
G. will be enrolled in this class. and
as many of the leading comrades of
the shop and street nuclei as possible.
This class will have as its major func-
ton the leading of the discussion on
party policies and campaigns before
nuclei and should prove of great value
in all the party's activities.
As has been previously announced

had called a conference, it was the
duty OF the Cleveland Workers Con-
ference for Miners Relief to bring
about unity of the two conferences.
Call on Workmen's Circle.
A committee of the Cleveland work
ers' conference called upon the con-
ference called by the Wofkmen's
Circle, and altho few delegates had
some fears that united organization
might not be able to function among
the various nationalities, these fears
were considered of no moment by the
conference. Delegate Weisman de-
clared that the two conferences must
be united for otherwise it would mean
a splitting up of forces. But" he
stated, I'VE know that there are two
sides represented here-our side and
the other side. And we declare that
if the other side try to use this cam
paign for their propaganda we will
not go along"
Comrade l. Amter, one of the dele
gates from the Cleveland workers
conference to the Workmen's Circle
conference, answered by stating that
the purpose of the conference called
by the Workers (Communist) Party
is to raise relief for the striking
miners. We know that the real .strug-
gle in the anthracite fields has just
begun. Negotiations between the coal
operators and the miners have been
broken off. If the coal companies sue
coed in breaking the miners strike,
then the open shoppers will fight all
along the line. We intended by pro-
posing that our conference hold mass
meetings, to bring the question of the
miners strike clearly before the work
ers of Cleveland, so that they will see
that if the coal miners strike is lost,
