Company Uses Trick
Not to Pay Workers
Poisoned by RadiuTl

TRENTON, N. j., July 25 (FP).-
Workers suing the United States Ra-
dunn Corp, for damages for radium
poisoning sustained on the job are
still awaiting the decision of the New
Jersey Chancery Court on the legal
ity of their claims.
Five other employees arc suing.
Grace Fryer, whose suit is being push
ed for a precedent for the benefit Of
their other claimants, asks $185, 900.
Her counsel asks the court to allow
the suit despite the statute of limita-
lions pleaded by the company. He
states that the law should be inter-
preted to mean that suit must be filed
within two years of the discovery Of
an occupational disease. The COM
pany argues that the law means two
years from the beginning of the dis
ease.
Since the peculiar disease from
which they are suffering develops
slowly the workers case will be
thrown out of court if the company's
Interpretation is followed.
Seven workers and the plants chem
list in 1926 died from mesorthium me-
crosis, as radium poisoning is tech
nically termed.

The Powhattan Mining Co. is 60

of their houses on company property,
in spite of having issued public de-
NAL that it would do this. Twenty
five eviction suits were filed last

The Powhattan is a subsidiary of

Terminal Coal Co. of Pennsylvania.
At Rose Valley mine barracks have
been erected for 800 scabs, and ma
chine gun emplacements prepared.
Machine guns, search-lights, barbed
wire, and the scabs themselves have
been ordered. A small army of
guards is already there, and the usual
shooting up of the countryside, at
tacks on union miners wives and
families, and perhaps burning of a
house or two can be expected now at
any time. So far little coal has been
mined by these tactics.

Pacific Relations
Finds Missionary
4 Word Of III Fame

HONOLULU, T. H., July 25.-Yes-
terday there was symphony on chris
tianity by the delegates to the In
stitute of Pacific Relations now in ses-
sion here's Altho the question was
handled very gingerly by the decided
y conservative representatives, few
sparks flew, just the same. Senior
Benitiz, of the Philippines announced
that his people wanted no religion
that did not recognize the feeling Of
the Filipinos for independence.
Christian Hypocrites.
The Chinese delegate, Koo, sug-
gested, very cautiously, that two of
the objections to christianity in China
were that up to now the missionaries
had represented foreign imperialism
to the people, and also that christians
were observed by the man in the
street to not practise what they
preached. He said also that religion
was fought by Communists who did
not believe in god, and by rationalists
who didn't need god. He counseled
reform by the missionaries, argument
with The rationalists, and admitted
that he did not know what to do with
the Communists. He thot their influ-
ence must be fought.
Chang Invites Priests.
David 2. 7. Yui, head of the Chi
nese Y. M. G. A., read telegram from
Chang Kai-shek PROMISING christian
ity complete protection for all its
agents, and launched into paen of
praise for the tyrant of Marking.
The conference tentatively decided
to invite missionary societies to use
some other word to designate their
evangelists, as the term missionary"
has come to be surrounded by con-
siderable odium thruout the east, and
the institute believes that the good
work should go on, but by the use of
a little more tact.

Boylan is but paving the road to be-

a flop at such things. From the first
day to the present day of the life of

done quite successfully in previous

strike" and also of being. "a menace
of the U. NJ. W. A. and organized la

Recommended further amendments to
the compensation act, favored the old
age pension law, and decided to do
everything possible to secure an ap-

SHOE WORKERS UNION OFFICIALS

Election Approaching So They Start Fight to
Eliminate Opposition to Regime

Pursuing their union-wrecking
campaign against the supporting To-
Gals of the District Council Of the
Shoe Workers Protective Union, the
REORGANIZATION machine, is des-
perate to stifle every vestige Of OPP
position to it. Their purpose is to
destroy the organization in Greater
New York because they know that
the membership is opposed to their
reactionary land aictatorial tactics.
An election for general president is
approaching and the machine is try
ing to fortify itself so it can remain
in power.
The revoking of the charter of Lo-
cal Fifty-five in New York last
Thursday night was the latest of a
series of punitive acts against the
membership.
Bring Flock of Organizers.
Both President John D. Nolan and
Secretary-Ereasurer Daniel J. Fitz-
gerald of the general office in Bos-
ton were present at the meeting
which includd nearly all +he member
ship because all tn shops under its
jurisdiction had been closed to get
full attendance.
Trailing long with Nolan and
Fitzgerald were a flock of organizers
and the business agent of the cut
ters' local, Arthur Cunningham, who
tried to speak but was hooted down
because the executive board of his
local encourage the members to scab
upon the other locals on strike. The
organizers were Jack Conley, ap-
pointed last winter and who has made
complete failure as an organizer
and strike leader, but who is kept on
the payroll because he supports the
machine; Tom Kelly, political
apointee selected at the same time
Conley was put on, who is utterly in
competent, but also holds on because
he is part of the machine; DeIiberty,
a member of Local So, but who is ut
terly discredited by the rank and file
and whom the general office does
not dare send into the New York dis
trict; Quintilliano, recent appoin-
tee who has not been able to achieve
much even if he desired to do so
because of the fact that the general
office sabotages organization work
because it doesn't want a powerful
union in this district.
Finances Were Cut Off.
Louis Trubovitz, president of the
District Council whose charter was
lifted couple of weeks ago, was the
first speaker at the meeting and as
sailed the policy of Nolan, pointing
ont that the union had lost all its
strikes, because the general office
shut off financial aid and because of
the bad trade conditions. The gen.
eral office sent in no funds all win
ter. Then in the spring it send funds
for organizational purposes for a
few weeks as mere gesture. Right
in the midst of two strikes in big
shops the finances were cut off.

the basic workers in the industry, de-
manded action against wage cuts and
worsening of conditions. The district

Nolan, to show you how fair am.
AS a member of Local 55 / wish to

ness which you showed to our local
by bringing a flock of organizers to
cur meeting yesterday. 1t is strue
that we have been asking for an or

seemed to see any reason why we
should get one, but at last you seemed
to have changed your mind and de-

Brother Fitzgerald, three organizers

local at heart wish to express my
heartfelt thanks.
