REDS new DRIVE
On Canadian Unions Seen
AS Failure

BY International Labor News Service.
Montreal.-"The All Red Congress
would be better name for the ALL
Canadian Congress of Labor which is
the outcome of final revolutionary
effort within the labor ranks of Can
ada," stated Tom Moore, president of
the Trades and Labor Congress of
Canada, in an interview. "All the
members of unions like the Canadian
Brotherhood of Railroad Employees
are not Red, but they are being led
into the revolutionary movement by
their executives, and by allowing
themselves to be aligned with revo-
lutionary organizations they must
take the responsibility of the groups
they have joined" Mr.. Moore added.
"Men inside the labor movement of
Canada have before this experimental
with other forms of organizations, pol
icies and principles, but have mostly
returned to tried and tested systems.
The revolutionary influences in the
Canadian west are disappearing. The
One Big Union failed, and the COM
munists, with their methods of boring
from within, have also failed. Now
they are joining forces in an at
tempt to destroy the established trade
unions"
"This new plan of attack will also
fail because Canadian labor has shown
itself definitely opposed to movements
based on the perpetuation Of class
war and will fight as vigorously
against the new methods of attack as
they fought against the old methods, y

In Illinois reports to President Fish

shipping mines have reached agree

The Illinois Operators Association
and the miners have thus far failed
to meet in conference, although invi-
tations have been extended by both
sides, but declined. Ohio miners re-
fused to meet the operators on a
basis of discussing reduction in
wages, while the operators declined to
meet the miners on a general discus
sion of contract based on no reduc-
tion in wages.

Reds Deny Bribing Police
But Fail to Account For Big
Sum Spent in Fur Strike

By international Labor News Service.
New York City-The communist
fur strike leaders denied all their pre-
vious testimony about police bribery
before Magistrate McAdoo, who is in
vestigatiing the charges for the
mayor. This was expected as we'll as
their parrot cry of "Frame-up."
Now the question arises, how will
they account for the expenditure of
$800,000 during the 18 weeks fur
strike? Having denied they bought
the police, with their books falsifed
so that no accountant can audit them,
they face the charge of grand lar
ceny, according to those who want an
accounting of the huge sums given
the fur workers to help win the strike.
Committee Supports Gangsterism
The formation of the committee of
one hundred to save the communist
leaders from prosecution goes merrily
on, with leading divines, radical en-
thusiasts and civil liberty exponents
on the board, and communists direct
ing their activity. One of the addi-
ties is that leading preachers, who
consistently expound turning the
other cheek" and who will not sane
tion war for any cause, are seemingly
heartily in support of gangsterism,
with the resulting stabbing and
wounding of union workmen not in
accord with the communist dictator
ship on the streets in front of the
fur shops.
Reds Face Prosecution
While the struggle between trade
unionism and leftism is going on, the
police courts are going on with a
number of cases involving the recent
of gangsters who have been alleged
to be on the payroll of the commun-
lists have turned states evidence.
They have implicated Ben Gold, the
leading communist of the ousted joint
board, and others who were mention
ed in the police bribery evidence as
having directed them to assault two
furriers in shop in Mineola.
Besides Gold they name Isidor Sha-
piro and Samuel Mencher, both ex-
officials who have now denied their
former remarks of buying up the New
York police, as we'll as six others,
included in the communist bands.
New Locals Make Progress
The huge funds that the commu-
nists have at their disposal have also
aided them and helped to maintain
their hold on the fur workers. The
A. F. of L. committee has been ham
pered on the other hand with only the
slender contributions coming from
other labor organizations. Despite
the obstacles, about one-half of the
fur workers in New York have been

NEW YORK, July 20. Jack
Dempsey and Jack Sharkey, the
principals IN another one of Tex
Rickard s million dollar shows, bill
ed for the Yankee Stadium tomol
row night, were resting today near
the scene of battle.
Sharkcy finished his work yester-
day in the hot house on top of
Madison Square Garden and Demp-
sey came in from White Sulphur
Springs, where he trained for what
he hopes to be is great comeback.
While the trainers of the two
fighters were planning to put their
charges through the last limbering
up exercises, the fatigued clerks in
Rickard S office were laboring
through basketful of last order
demands for ga seat III the front
row.
Rickard was hiding out after leav-
ing the announcement in his office
that he chad been licked by the
demand for tickets Joe Boynton
and Benny Bennett, his star men
in the box office, were willing to
express the opinion that no fight M
history had attracted the same de-
mand for tickets and that the gate
WAS sure to be more than a million
and quarter dollars.
Rickard s private office was too
busy to figure any definite sum on
the advance sales but A Luce, his
business manager, said he was sure
he had taken in more than $4,000
aid the unrcserved seats have moi
been placed on sale yet.

If there is anything the matter
