five years as stipulated in the Black
Friday pact.
Press In Usual Role.
The capitalist press of the region
and every means of propaganda that
can be utilized by the bosses is being
used to fool the miners into believing
they have won something as a result
of the disgraceful sell-out. officers OF
the union have rushed into print in
fulsome praise Of the victory" that
has been won. But the miners know
that not one of their demands is in
corporated In the agreement.
In addition to this propaganda the
Scranton papers are carrying flaming
headlines featuring James ]. Davis
secretary OF labor as the moving
figure in the settlement in order to
pave the way for this labor.hatine
member of strike-breaker Coolidee's
cabinet to become governor OF Penn

The settlement" may be ratified on
paper but the miners will fight and
there will be no peace In the region

nothing in the shape of an organiza-
ton. but is putting up a bluff thru
the paper and a few unthinking work
ers make him look like the leader
of real organization. This chal-
lenge from the active Farmer-Labor-
ties in the eight district of Minnesota
will be accepted, but not until we
have had convention and swept
away the incompetent leadership and
made the farmer labor organizations
SO progressive that anyone with as
much progressivlsm as Senator
Borah believes in recognition of Rus
STA. This under the Mahoney Starkey
controlled farmer labor organization
would mean expulsion pdq. Farley
further contends that Mahoney and
Starkey are not the guilty parties but
that the blame should be laid to Mag
nus Johnson, Floyd Olson, Louis Eng
strom and others who are members of
the committee. We have always been
told thru the press by Mahoney that
those men were willing to go out and
hold meetings, therefore we will be-
lieve until it is proven otherwise
that he prevented the holding of such
meetings as he denied me the right
to hold meetings on behalf of the
organization, whatever may be the
facts with reference to the men men
toned.
The case today in Minnesota is one
in which farmers and workers are
willing to get into a political organ
ization of their own and the officials
of the organization Gwhat there is Of
it, are doing everything possible to
keep them out.

TOLEDO NEGRO
. WORKERS HEAR
NORTHUMBERLAND
Many Join A. N. L. c.
to Fight Race Bars

TOLEDO, Ohio, Feb. 14.-Lovett
Whiteman, labor organizer, spoke
in the Banquet hall of the Labor
Temple to a well attended meeting of
Negro and white workers. For two
hours he dwelt on many important
phases of the Negro question and
outlined the plan of the American
Negro Labor Congress and clearly
showed the need of the Labor Con-
gress, pointing out that if the Negro
is allowed to remain unorganized, it
will be a tremendous detriment to
all organized labor.
Whiteman showed the cause Of
race-riots, lynchings, etc. and held the
press of this country, which is con-
trolled by the capitalist class largely
responsible for the prejudice existing
today.
Sovlets Abolish Race Issue.
He explained the race question in
Russia before the revolution of that
country, where forty-three languages
are spoken and showed that since
that vast country has been under the
rule of the workers, these problems
have faded away.
Whiteman explained the legal and
political handicaps of the Negro in
this country and the economic cause
of their presence in large numbers on
this continent He touched upon many
Of the state laws which foster race
discrimination.
The speaker pointed out that gath
erings such as this would do more
good for the breaking of race-pre-
JUDGE, race-riots and lynchings than
any other thing.
Negro Workers Organize.
Many Negro workers subscribed to
the Negro Champion and Joined the
American Negro Labor Congress.
