The windows in the toilet are nailed

grease) off our hands. The tempera>

Of the time we find it hard to work.
At one time it was so great that our

We sent word to Mr.. Gallant, the
agent of the mill to let him know that
it was too warm for us to work ana
that he would like to go home for the
afternoon. He refused to let us go.
Many mornings when we come 70
work we find our wraps cut in two or
three places by the mice. The wraps
are so bad at times that it is very hard
to earn over SIS a week. We have
no rest room in the mill. When we
are tired or fatigued we rest in the
toilet.

MASLoV KUT - North Caucuses,

of the British coal miners against a

the maltreatment.
Demolish Schweinitzers Testimony.
The defense succeeded today in de-
molishing Schweinitzer's testimony
completely and in proving his state
ments not worthy of credence, despite
the special protection accorded
Schweinitzer by the president, who
did not permit the defendants to in
terrogate the former concerning their
having been tortured. Schweinitzer
was the star witness for the prosecu-
tion.
His examination lasted four hours.
The result Of his testimony, however,
was the complete collapse Of the pros
ecution's case. 1t was intended that
he testify that the Communist Party
aimed to organize for the armed up
rising. He wanted to prove that the
socialist labor party employed Commu-
mist methods and received funds from
the Third International At the end
of his examination he had to admit,
however, that he only had circumstan-
tial evidence in support of these
charges and could adduce no direct
proof.
Social Democrats Betrayers.
The miserable part played by the
social democrats in this trial of 5S
Hungarian workers was brought out
by the barrlsters for the defense when
they cross-examined Scheinitzer.
Barrister Lengyel for the defense
asked Schweinitzer whether the social
democrats had not aided him in his
investigations and arrests of the Com
munist and social labor party men,
bers. Schweinitzer refused to reply.
Lengye: Ludwig Samuel also fig.
ured as defendant in this trial. He
was arrested but released in a few
days. There is no mention Of his re-
lease in the protocol. The police OBJ
tanned position for him. According
to the indictment he took part in the
congress. How is it possible that he
was set free by the police and, altho
he lives In Budapest, was not sub
poenaed TO attend this trial"
SchNeinitzer: ain accordance with
the instructions of my superior can
not answer this question"
While Lengyel was asking this ques-
tion Public Prosecutor Miskolczy,
member Of the Awakening Hunga,
rians, makes remark which cannot
be heard distinctly. Lengyel turns
sharply to the public prosecutor and
asks: What did you say?" The lat.
ter is silent. Defendant Josef Gogos,
one OF the defendants, says to Leng-
vel: "The public prosecutor says that
It is disgrace TO ask such ques-
tions."

the prosecution today was Gabriel
Horovitz, member of the executive
of the social democratic party of Hun
gary and first secretary (chairman) of
the Wood Workers Union. Restless
ness filed the room as everybody i'm
patiently awaited his testimony. 1t
was a matter of common knowledge
that not only had Horovitz testified to
the police against the leaders of the
socialist labor party, but that a secret
report from Horovitz figured in the
trial documents.
Witness Blows Up.
After the examination OF a number
Of unimportant witnesses the metal
worker, Ernet Schon, is called to the
stand. The public prosecutor relied
on him to prove that the socialist
labor party had been in connection
with the Communists. Ernst Schon
declared that he had no knowledge of
this and thatihe was unable to adduce
anay evidence in support thereof.
The president: Your statments to
the police read differently"
"schoen: THE agent provocateur
Ludwig Samuel was my friend. / did

arrest, however, he told me that we

did 1t come to pass. They compelled
me to say to the police whatever the
detectives wanted of me-"
Just as the day before, the two star

tspeoIaI 70 The paIly WOrker)


PARIS, Aug. 9y-The senate has rat1-
fed by vote Of 2S1 to six, Poincare's
project for a sinking fund and for the
so-called "industr1alization" of the
government tobacco monopoly, meant
TO place it upon the basis Of a semi
private corporation.
Some of the dictatorial measures
Poincare is whipping the chamber Of
deputies into granting include the
right granted to the bank of France
to issue unlimited paper money to buy
foreign currency, without having to
report such dangerous imitation in its
weekly statements.
Afraid to Press issue.
The government has been hesitating
between proposing and Withholding
the proposal to ratify the debt agree
ments. Strong blocks of deputies have
notified the cabinet that they will vote
against ratification. Poincare undoubt-
ediy wants to ratify, but may only go
far enough to get the approval to rati-
fy with reservations from the finance
committees of the chamber and sem
ate, then dicker with the q. s. and
Britain during the summer, preparing
for ratification in the autumn.
Lose Both Ways.
The rise of the franc suddenly from
40 to 80 to che dollar, has caused
nearly as much panic as its previous
fall. People and firms who had hasten
ed to save themselves as the franc
went down, by buying English and
American money with depreciating
francs, now are in fever to unload
before they lose millions by Its rise.
Washington Confident.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Evidently
having received secret assurance that
the debt pact with France will soon
be ratified, altho there is no apparent
chance of this from official actions,
the government experts are already
figuring out how much OF a loan
France will need. There has clearly
been a secret conference between Mel
lon and French politicians close to
Poincare.
The experts say they think France
will need a loan of from $4,000, 900
to $75,000,000 directly, with a possible
addition Of 100000, 900 credit to draw
upon. 1t must have this great sum to
even try stabilization of the franc.
No Easy Matter.
But such stabilization will create
new trouble. It will shut off much OF
French exports and produce an un-
favorable balance of trade. This, too,
will tend to send the franc down
again. So sterilization or no stabiliza-
ton, the franc seems bound to be risky
speculation.
