FARMERS PLIGHT
 STILL MORE ACUTE
Agricultural Educators See No
 Adequate Legislation

Chicago, Nov. II UP)-The plight Of the American farmer is so acute that no single piece of relief legislation is equal to the occasion, the American association of land grant colleges and universities was advised today by it's own special investigation committee.
 The committee, composed of prominent agricultural educators in some of the countrys leading uni versailles, urged broad and per manent' agricultural legislation rather than emergency" measures, and went on to assert that many of the farmers problems must of neces- sity be met from within the indus try.
 Agricultural legislation" the committee reported, lis far broad TT question than can be remedied by a single act of congress. Any proposal that confuses the minds of the public by encourage ing the idea that single emergency relief act would meet adequately and permanently the difficulties un- der which farmers operate is preju- diCial 10 the interests of agriculture.

United Textile Union
Gains Support Among
UnOrganized Workers

BIDDEFORD, Me-, Feb. II (FP).
The United Textile Workers drive
into the sheeting mill towns grows
more promising. The last meeting of
the Pepperell Manufacturing Co.'S
Social and Athletic Club was able to
attract only half the number that
came to hear Organizer Francis Cor
man expound the advantages of
trades unionism.
The Social and Athletic Club meets
in the old weave room that has been
remodeled into auditorium, gymnas-
ium and club rooms, as part Of the
eompany's welfare plans.
Two years ago the Biddeford work
ers, then under the leadership Of the
Independent American Federation OF
Textile OPERATIVES, were defeated in
a long strike. Since then the A. F..
of L. union has launched an organi-
cation campaign. The present drive
is actively assisted by the Salem To-
cal union of the U. T. W., where g.
400 sheeting workers are employed by
the unionized Naumkeag Steam Cot
ton Goa firm that pay 90 per cent
higher wages than it's open shop ri
walls and still manages to make more
money per spindle than any of them.

ILLINOIS FEUD WHICH HORRIFIES POLITE PULITZER
CAUSED BY STRENGTHENING
Young a Gunman.


The present writer was on the
scene for The DAILY WORKER in
1924 when Glen Young met his death
from the gun of Ora Thomas, men,
Der of the miners union, who died
at the same time.
1t was then established by The
DAILY WORKER and ignored by the
press generally-that Glen Young
was company gunman, who was in
the scab barricade in Lester mine at
the time of the shooting in 1922, and
escaped
Ora Thomas was one of the lead
ers of the miners who took up arms
in defense of their right to live. Glen
Young came back to Herrin-or was
sent back-to "get even"
X. X. h. Against Union.
That is why Ora Thomas died. The
"Ku Klux Khan" wave in Williamson
County was, in reality, and all its
other angles Notwithstanding, an at
tack on the miners union.
The subsequent killings and gang
sterism that has made Herrin con-
slant source of first-page copy can
in large measure be traced back
to the Labor fight" of 1922. But
only insofar as the community was
unbalanced by, the fact that the coal
operators did everything possible to
break the miners union.
1t was no accident that Glen
Young's extra-legal Crusade" was
directed in most instances against
union miners-principally foreign
born workers-the type who fought
and won at Lester Strip mine.
Bosses Feel Defeat.
For the bosses, Lester Strip mine
represents a shameful example of
"lawlessness" that had it's echo in
death and later gangsterism of a
particularly vicious sort.
For the workers, Lester Strip mine
symbolizes a heroic fight for class
interests against great odds. The
union miners who fought there-Ora
Thomas among them--are heroes of
the working class. The "Ku Klux
Khan" raids and the gangsterism that
followed may be marked down as a
logical corrallary to a struggle that
released the most vicious forces of
the system in an effort to break the
fighting spirit that shone among the
miners in 1929.
