FIRST OF KHAN
FLOGGERs Goes
TO JURY TODAY
Terrorism Exposed by
Fight in the Klan

LUVERNE, Ala, Nov. 23.-The
case of Shelby Gregory, first of 80
persons on trial for alleged floggings
in Crenshaw county, will probably go
to the jury today.
Gregory, charged with kidnapping
and assault and battery, was one of
five persons who carried Annie Mae
Simmons, Negro woman, off in an
automobile and participated in her
flogging, state witnesses swore.
This case is based on one of 102
indictments returned in this county
against members of the Ku Klux Klan
who have created a reign of terror
with repeated floggings of Negro and
white agricultural workers, and mem
bers of their families.
There might not have been any
trouble for the floggers, many of them
in the "best families" of the land
owning aristocracy of the South, if a
quarrel had not suddenly broken out
between the States Attorney General
and the heads of the Klan. The at
torney general was elected on the
Klan ticket. So was the governor.
The governor in public utterances
defends the floggers, but the attorney
general is prosecuting vigorously.

HEARST LUNCHES
WITH COOLIDGE;
PLOT ON MEXICO?
Execute 4 Who Tried
to Murder Obregon

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. II e
Mexican situation and plans for the
procedure of the representatives of
the United States government, to-
gether with American moneyed men
interested in Latin America at the
coming Pan-American Congress at
Havana, are believed to have been
discussed by President Coolidge and
William Randolph Hearst at lunch
con at the White House yesterday.
The Havana congress promises
of a sharp clash about the question
of American intervention in Mica
ragua and other interference in
Latin-American affairs. To avoid an
impressive anti-Wall Street demon
stration has been the purpose of
careful study by the State Depart
ment and President Coolidge. Cool
idge has said he will address the
Havana congress at its opening ses-
sion, and it is still believed that he
will attend.
Hearst and Coolidge are believed
to have devoted at least a portion of
the conversation at the luncheon to
the question of the advisability of
making use of certain alleged origi-
nal documents which Hearst claims
were stolen from the "secret ar
chives" of the Mexican government
and sold to his newspapers. These
are the same documents published in
the Hearst newspapers expressly in
support of Coolidge's policies in the
Invasion and war against Nicaragua.
The documents are denounced by the
Mexican government as forgeries,
and the most important of them was
proven by Photographic evidence pub
lished by The DAILY WORKER last
Saturday to be crude forgery.

A. FL. DRAWS Up
ANTI-INJUNCT
BILL FOR SENATE
Will Try to Get Passed
Definition of Property

WASHINGTON, D. c., (FP) Nov.
Diminishing touches are being made
by legal experts among officials at
American Federation of Labor head
quarters in Washington to the short
est, most effective anti-injunction
measure ever drawn. This measure
will be presented to Congress when
that body meets, and its passage will
be urged by every labor legislative
agent at the capitol Its immediate
purpose is the rescue of the striking
coal miners from further enslavement
by such injunctions as have been is
sued by Federal Judge Schoonmaker
in Pittsburgh.
Includes Working Power.
Injunctions against members Of la
Dor unions are issued. by equity
courts, which are courts whose SOLE
business is the protection of prop
erty when there is no remedy at law.
Violations of the orders or injunc-
tions of these equity courts are pun
ished as contempt of court. But ex-
tension of the meaning of the word
property" has gone so far that it
is made to include the power to la
bor Thus, the labor power of the
coal miners in the struck fields is
claimed to be the property of the
coal companies, and any interference
by the coaldiggers with the applica-
tion of each others muscle to the
regular digging of coal is a violation
Of the property right Of the company.
Indeed, any quitting of work is rob-
berry of the company, in the view of
some injunction judges.
Proposed Bill.
The proposed anti-injunction bill
say: Courts sitting in equity shall
have jurisdiction to protect property
when there is no remedy at law; and
for the purpose Of determining this
jurisdiction nothing shall be held to
be property unless it is tangible and
transferable; and all laws and parts
of laws inconsistent with this act are
hereby repealed"
Since labor power is not tangible
and not transferable, the proposed
amendment to the Sherman anti
trust law would remove the present
preteXt for anti-labor injunctions.
The Sherman antitrust law has
two main sections. In the first it
penalties "any agreement or combina-
ton in restraint of commerce or
trade" 1t is an anti-combination
law. The second section prohibits
monopolies.

A letter announcing the opening of

lean troops aud marines has been sent
to the progressive and labor press
thruout the country by the All-Amer-

After describing the murder OF

the letter says, "The All-American
Anti-Imperialist League appeals to
all labor organizations, to all organ
izations of farmers, to all organiza-
tions of any kind that represent pro-
gressive forces in America. We ask
you to join with US in a concerted

itary and naval forces, and for an end
to all U. S. intervention there"

Election Supervision.
President Coolidge has insisted
that the marines are in Nicaragua
only to supervise the 1928 elections.
Now, however, an American, DR.. Will
liam p EdnHerland, has been made
financial dictator in Nicaragua. Ne
gotiations are reported to be under
way which will result in new loans
totaling $20,O00,OOO being saddled up
on the backs of the Nicaraguan peo-
ple-with the military and naval
forces of the United, States serving
to guard the imperial investment of
the bankers.
Nicaragua is the test for all those
in the United States who declare
themselves opposed to the imperialist
policy of blood and iron. 1t is the
test which will determine whether or
not American imperialism can go for
ward to the rape of one Latin-Amer-
lean country after the other without
any effective resistance from the
masses of Americans themselves. If
the lmperialists are allowed to go
ahead in Nicaragua there is no crime,
no outrage, which they cannot per-
petrate in Latin America under the
