LANSING, Kan, July 13.-An in

for the coal mine mutiny that Friday

Thirteen guards who were impris-

give little information on what had
'transpired among the prisoners dur
ing the 32 hours they carried on the
strike. They were herded into a mule
pen in the long tunnel, and kept un-

victs.
Warden Mackey, who earlier had
intimated he would not punish the
miners yesterday, ordered a full in

1t Is Dangerous to Hurl
Boomerangs Since They
Always Come BackAgain
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

LNVEN the New York Times is for
- ced to admit that 10000 striking
textile workers were numbered at
the gathering held in the open air at
Belmont Park, near Passaic, New
Jersey, the other evening.
Probably in no other American la
Dor struggle has it been possible to
rally such a large percentage of the
strikers after six months Of bitter
industrial war. The usual experience
has been that interest lags as the
battle for bread lengthens into the
weeks and months. Not so in the
Passaic textile strike. There all the
enthusiasm of the early days of the
walkout still burns with all the zeal
of fiery crusaders immune to every
discouragement.
1t is all the more regrettable,
therefore, that at this stage of the
struggle the executive council of
the American Federation of Labor
should officially place itself on
record alongside the mill owners
citizens committee thru again and
very futilely denouncing the strike
as "a Communist move" They blind
ly take 1t for granted that workers
do not appreciate the efforts of the
Communists in their midst. They
can make no greater mistake.
Instead of rendering service to the
American working class, the A. F.
Of L. officials thereby only give aid
and comfort to the class enemy of
labor. This can clearly be seen by
the reception Immediately given to
the A. F. of l.. attack on the United
Front Committee" that is conduct
ing the strike.
First, in spite of this latest Of
fetal A. F. Of L. broadside the strik-
ers remained as loyal as ever to
their leadership, proclaiming re-
newed faith in their cause, which is
stone wall resistance to wage cuts
by fighting for wage increases. That
is the strikers answer to the denun-
citation of President William Green
and his fellow officials. 1t is out
standing testimony to the fact that
the strikers repudiate the attack of
the Green regime, looking upon 1t
as an attempted stab in the banck
against themselves.
Second, the attack Of the Green
oficialdom was Immediately adopted
by the mill owners as their own.
The ku klux klansmen leadership of
the citizens committee seized on
the A. F. of l.. declaration as a new
weapon with which to club the strik-
ers. Thus instinctively they pro-
claimed the A. F. of L. officialdom
was playing the employers game.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-07-15

Citizens committees" are often
the most vicious instruments of des-
perate employers unable to defeat
and crush their striking workers.
These committees, constituted Of la
bor-hating elements, do the dirty
work of the bosses in the name of
Flaw and order" They pave the
way for the calling in Of the militia
and the shooting down of the strik-
ers. They carry out the lynching
and falling of strike leaders. The
frame-up and the hangman's moose
are the committees favorite weap-
ons. 1t often works thru kidnapping
and deportation parties. 1t is the
worst possible company that the A.
f. of L. officialdom can find itself in.
The striking Passaic textile work
ers realize this.
The summer days are rapidly
passing and October will soon be
here with. another annual conven-
ton Of the American Federation of
Labor. 1t will be a time when Pres
ident Green will have to make an &C
counting for the past year, not only
to the few hundred delegates, the
high officials of the various inter-
national unions, but to the whole
American working class. A gesture
was made last year at Atlantic City,
when promises Of an organization
drive in the automobile industry
were inserted in the official proceed
ings, and general organization work
pledged, especially thru a labor
movie" The automobile industry
drive was quickly dropped soon
after the convention adjourned, the
movie and its mission well-nigh
forgotten.
All that remains, therefore, by
way of an A. F. Of L. achievement
under the Green regime is this at
tack on the recently unorganized
Passaic textile workers who are
making brave fight and seek adj
mission to a unified organization of
all textile workers under the ban
ners of the American Federation of
Labor. But even the inertia of the
Green administration cannot always
resist the pounding of these 10000
Passaic strikers, loyal to their own
fight, part of the developing and
courageous vanguard of American
labor that demands militant union
ism always fighting on the side of
the workers interests, and at no
time giving aid and comfort to la
boris enemy. When President Green
put his signature to the attack
against the Passaic strike, he hurled
a boomerang that will return to give
agony to the labor officialdom of
which he is the executive head.

Especial to The Daily worker)


DOVER, N. j., July 1S.-The orgy
of destruction which for more than
three days has ragged over this sec
ton is ended at last, leaving its ter
rible marks of death and agony. The
boom of great shells and the bursting
of shrapnel is stilled, and quiet reigns
in the valley of the dead. There are
$50 houses destroyed or mostly wreck
ed, 20 dead, 800 injured and 500 fam
lilies are homeless.
For the first time today a complete
survey of the almost demolished naval
arsenal buildings was made. and the
completeness of the disaster was real
lied.
High officers Appear--It's Safe.
A train consisting of fat cars and
one coach bearing high officers of the
government forces trailed its slow dis
NAL way over the three miles of track
running thru the reservation, stopping
now and then to allow mechanics to
repair the torn rails.
The scene of devastation recalled
the village of Ypres, wiped out during
the world war by the shells Of German
artillerymen, but still no more eff
fectively RACED than this once busy
little valley.
"Best Arsenal Known"
WASHINGTON, July 13.-Secretary
of War Davis today denied statement
attributed to him by a press associa-
ton to the effect that 1.-THE govern
ment must change it's methods of
building arsenals." He denied also
that he had said the buildings were
too close together. "On the contrary"
said Davis, "the best known methods
of arsenal construction were used at
Picatinny."
From his summer vacation home at
White Pines Camp, New York, Presi-
dent Coolidge has issued statement

Evidently the men, women and chill

ed so far to rain of high explosive
shells for three days in the peaceful
Jersey countryside feel the same way
about it, as the residents of Dover are
preparing a petition to the navy de-
partment against the rebuilding of
the arsenal, while the New Jersey
state officials have also declared them
selves opposed to having the arsenal
within the confines of that state.
Ten of the seventeen bodies, recov-
