CHILDREN of striking union min
y ers in the Pittsburgh district have
refused to attend school with the
children of scabs.3 They absented
themselves from the elassroons when
police protection was given to the pro-
geny of the strikebreakers. What to
do with these subversive children must
present a difficult problem to the
Pittsburgh Coal Company, who con-
troll the local government. The
children were born in the neighbor.

with exporting them to the United
States. 1t would be almost impos-

anti-syndicalist law, so that weapon is
unavailable. We can see only one
civilized means by which the opera

to starvation by refusing their par

A WISE judge in an Ohio mining
"A town recently issued an injunction
to q coal magnate whose employees are
, on strike forbidding all but native
Americans from picketing the scab
properties. Since almost the entire
mining community is composed of
foreign born workers and their de-
pendents this judge did his masters
job as neatly as an expert bull-head
skinner flays his fish. The Ohio Sol

IN VIEW Of the general use Of gov

against the workers in industrial dis
putes, it seems almost Incompetent
sible to the uninitiated that the lead
els of the American Federation of
Labo~ should be opposed to class poll
teal action on the part OF the work
ers. Capitalist government officials
always serve the owning classes. The
exceptions are so rare that they are
unworthy of mention. Even the skel-

notice on the capitalists that their
slaves were beginning to awake. Then

Sept. 12.-American Legionnaires

aeroplane bombs in the late war be-
cause of their ptedeliction for staff

general are taking a keen interest
now in the fate of "Old Glory" the
most spectacular recent case in which
brave pilots have given up their lives
in the effort to extend and improve
the still largely military science of
aviation.
Seventeen hundred gaily bedecked
and homeloving warriors en- route to
the legion's convention in Paris get
quite living thrill out of lining the
rail and looking for wreckage as the
Leviathan plows thru the seas that
in all probability cover the bodies Of
"Old Glory's" crew.

will demand the death penalty-the

Taft is aided by two assistant
county prosecutors, Carl E. Bassler,
and Walter K. Sibbald.
Dodge Aiding Prosecution
Prosecutor Taft told newspaper
men that Franklin L. Dodge, jr.,

Justice and alleged lover Of Mrs. Re

State in the presentation OF the
charges against Remus.
Taft disclosed for the first time
that Dodge will only be used as a
States rebuttal witness.
He said 1t would not be necessary
for Dodge to testify unless Remus
made him part OF the proceedings.
In that event Dodge will take the
stand. Taft said.
Remus said he hopes he will have
an opportunity of cross-examining
Dodge.

Two street cars were lifted from
the. rails and turned completely
around. The cars were loaded with
passengers on their way to work.
Northside residents were panic
stricken by What police described
as probably the worst disaster in
the city's history. Terrified men,
women and children deserted their
homes in fear, running through the
streets as though mad.
Hospitals on the northside were
soon filled with victims and it was
necessary to commander all sorts
OF automobiles to rush the injured
to hospitals in outlying districts.
A man on the second story Of a
livery stable two blocks from
where the tank let go was cata-
pulled through q window to the
street. His scalp was cut and hands
bruised.
Telephone and electric light and
power service OF the northside went
out simultaneously, as the main
wires. running near the plant, were
blown to bits.

Nothing but a gaping hole was
left on the site Of the tank that
exploded. Small buildings in the
immediate vicinity were crushed

residence at Eighth and Hermosa

Remus was interviewed in his cell

building this morning as he prepared
to go into court.
''Remus' brain exploded when he

Remus always refers to himself as
