VIII the two great patriots men
toned above explain their vociferous
loyalty to american institutions" in
the light Of the federal injunction
against their own union in Southern
Ohio?
ONE thing-is certain.
The continued denunciation OF
the Communists and the left wing OF
the union, the expulsion of militant
members, the destruction of inner
union democracy, trucking to the pa
triotic capitalists, Islander of the So
Wet Union, worker employer coopera-
ton speeches delivered in frock-
coats before chambers of commerce
and sabotage of convention decisions
for a labor party, failure to declare
a national strike, advocacy of district
agreements, failure to launch an
energetic organization campaign in
the non-union fields, have not served
to prevent the coal capitalists and
their government from making wal
on the union.
yWHAT price patriotism now?
w Either the United Mine Work
ers, backed by the rest of the labor
movement, will fight "our govern
ment" by violating the federal in
junction and defeating it and the coal
barons, or the labor movement will
witness more iniunctions issue tc
cover every field where the GOA
barons desire to start operations, i'm
port scabs and smash the United Mine
Workers of America.
1T is clear that in the decisive sec
tions of the Union fields the coal
barons intend to destroy the union
outright unless it accepts the Goa
barons' terms-merely another way
of destroying the union.
b It is also clear that the injunction
in Southern Ohio marks the entry OF
the federal government into the unior
fields in behalf of the coal barons.
IN the West-Virginia non-unior
fields the United Mine Workers
are appealing to the United States
supreme court against blanket in
junction prohibiting them from or.
ganizing, but failing any other actor
on the part of the union the strike
will be over and the union defeated

official leadership of the United Mine
Workers does nothing but pay law
yers fees and rail at the "reds" who
are undermining as best they can
such American institutions as in
functions against labor unions.
THE Ohio injunction with its sweep
ing prohibition of even routine union
activity fully upholds the contention
of the left wing of the United Mine
Workers, reiterated time and time
again in pamphlets and leaflets and
speeches in conventions, to the effect
that the struggle of the United Mine
Workers of American is struggle
to save the union; that the govern
ment is behind the coal barons; that
the drive on the United Mine Work
ers of America is part Of a general
offensive against the whole labor
movement.
The program placed before the
union by the Save the Union bloc at
the last convention offers the only
means of combating the drive on the
union.
THE support Of Coolidge by John L.
Lewis, the offer of partial sur
render to the coal barons in the form
Of district agreements and efficiency
unionism made at Miami, the obvious
desire on the part of the Lewis
machine to avoid irritating the coal
barons in any way, are answered by
federal injunction under cover OF
which the coal >barons are opening
up their mines with scab labor.
The influx of coal from the non
union fields which remained unor-
ganized while the Lewis machine
made war on Communist miners and
the left wing is depended upon-and
viii if not stopped-to supply the
markets where undermined coal was
sold formerly
I'M every local union the miners must
be informed of the sinister mean
ing Of the Ohio injunction. They will
support the program of the Save the
Union bloc and only by rally the sup

gram-organization of the non-union

Sacco-Vanzetti Murder Lesson to
Workers.


Dear Comrade
The headlines of the daily papers
this afternoon state that the Supreme
Court of the State of Massachusetts
has ruled against Sacco and Vanzetti.
This is not any different than we
expected all along. The Imperialists
will use the Courts to murder radical
workers, they have done so many
times.
OF course it is hard for working
people to bear up under such a hor-
rible affair, but Sacco and Vanzetti
will not have died in vain. The
workers do not need any better or
more convincing organizers than
Fuller and Thayer. They will give
great impetus to the movement to-
ward industrial solidarity and a uni
ted Labor Party-W. l.. Cogley, GeA-
eral Secretary-Treasurer, United AS
