GROVE HENCHME:N
STUFF BOXES IN
APRIL PRIMARIES
Kidnap Judges and Re-
mark the Ballots

The wholesale stealing of ballots
during the April 10 primaries is now
being investigated by the Chicago
board of election commissioners.
When the board opened its first in
quiry meeting, lawyers representing
the Robert E. Crowe-Charles v. Bar
rett faction in the republican party,
tried to get the committee to hold Sc
cret meetings. They declared that
the hearings were only an attempt to
dirty somebody up here"
In the first session it was brought
out that in one Of the polling places,
the election judge was kidnapped and
20 gunner took possession of the bal
lot boxes and remarked the ballots
cast so that the Crowe-Barrett-Thom
son slate was elected overwhelmingly.
Lambden, one of the poll workers.
declared that he had been in poll
ties since 1884 and that as he knew
those who would vote in the primaries
he had written in their names on the
books, and when they failed to appear
he erased their names off the books.
When asked whether any "floaters"
had been allowed to cast vote, he
admitted that number had voted.
This incident in one of the polling
places will be duplicated in many
other sections of Chicago. These in.
vestigations are bringing out the con.
nection between gangland and the
Crowe-Barrett-Thompson alliance in
the primary elections.

DETROIT LABOR
BACKS BRITISH
GENERAL STRIKE
All Elements Unite on
Support of Strikers

DETROIT, Mich, May g. All ele-
ments of the Detroit Federation Of
Labor united last Wednesday, May 8,
in pledging unanimous support to the
British strikers.
A motion to ask the American Fed
Grafton of Labor executive council to
take immediate action to organize re-
lief, financial and otherwise for the
British strikers, was passed unani-
mously.
Another motion was passed to send
a cablegram that night to the striR-
ers, assuring them of the full support
Of all Detroit workers in their battle
for decent conditions.
The militant spirit Of the British
proletariat proved so infectious, that
even a seasoned old line labor leader
like bill" Collins, the A. F. of L. or
ganizer stationed in Detroit, who in
the past has devoted much Of his
time to horrid Red-baiting, was so car
ried away by the general strike, that
he delivered a speech in favor OF I'M
qualified support of the English work
ers, no matter what the outcome of
the strike be, even tho it developed in
to revolution. He said that It was
the duty of the A. F. of L. to stand
back of them and see that no action
was taken in this country that might
in any way injure their cause.
N Fears Hanging.
He further said that the British
worker because Of his training and
history could be depended on to use
judgment and moderation and to car
ry things thru to where he wanted
them, with the least amount of trouble
possible, which was more than he
could say if a similar situation existed
in this country. That If we ever have
the same thing here, the American
worker will not be nice or gentle in
the methods he uses, as he has dem
onstrated his willingness to get what
he wants in previous strikes, and that
if such time ever comes here, those
who they think are too slow, or are
holding them back, will be showed out
of the way, and men like Martel,
(Pres. of the D. F. of u and myself
(Collins) will be strung to the near
est lamp-post.
The remarkable part OF the talk,
was that Collins apparently thot that
those who would attempt to stand in
the way or to hold back would de-
serve to be hung, and his speech was
wildly received, the applause quite
plainly showing that the delegates
thot the same as Collins.
Still Has a Chance.
He was answered by Mollenhauer,
one Of the progressive delegates who
said, "That when the time came, per-
haps Collins, Martel, Mollenhauer,
Foster and Ruthenberg would all be
working together for the common end
and there might not be any need of
lamp-posts," and Bill Collins led the
applause this time.
For the first time in some years,
the ID. +. OF L. has been united abso-
lutely on what is probably the most
revolutionary matter to come before
the delegates.

bourgeoisie succeeded in using young
workers to reduce the wages of adult
workers. These phenomena OF the
relative sterilization of capitalism re-
suited in constant worsening of the
position of the young workers. There
IS, moreover, growing unemployment
among young workers. This is par
ticularly the case in Germany, Great
Britain, Austria and Czecho- Slovakia.
"The fact that tho position of the
young workers in Europe is growing
gradually worse and that on the other
hand their position in the U. S. S. r.
is steadily improving, causes the
masses Of the young proletariat to turn
to the left"
