SMASH INSPIRED
.RUMOR CANDIDATE
FOR LABOR QUITS
All on Garfield Ticket
Determined to Fight On

GARFIELD n. j., Oct. 18.-Re-
futing what appears to be deliberate
and malicious rumors spread to inter
fere with the campaign for city Of
flee of the United Labor Ticket here,
statement has been issued jointly by
Mr.. Joseph f. Quinlivan, candidate
for Mayor; Gus Deak, Councilmanic
candidate for Second Ward; Felix
Panaerisi, Councilmanic candidate,
Third Ward; John Di Santo, Council
manic candidate, Fourth Ward, of
Garfield, N. j., as follows:
"Rumors have trickled thru that
Joseph r. Quinlivan, Independent
candidate for Mayor on the United
Labor Ticket, has dropped out of the
race as a candidate for election. This
rumor spread with Interior motives
is absolutely false and we must re-
state once again that Joseph F,
Quinlivan is a candidate for mayor of
Garfield.
When we agreed to form the United
Labor Ticket, we were fully aware Of
the difficulties ahead Of us. This
United Labor Ticket is coming from
the realization that nothing can be
expected for the workers from the
two old parties. The textile strike
of 1926-27 with its injunctions, with
the use of the police against the
strikers, the high sentences, the at
titude of the city council, showed the
need of Independent workingclass
political action. The labor ticket was
organized for this reason, knowing
full well, that the bosses will do
everything in their power to prevent
the labor candidates from being
elected into office.
Notwithstanding the obstacles we
pledge ourselves to carry on the cam
paign, more than in the past, bring
ing the message of labor to the peo-
pie of Garfield, which certainly
learned enough from the past not to
reflect those who are representing the
interest of the mill-owners, but to
put into office labor men elected on
the basis of labor program.
There is a big Labor Rally Thurs
day night, October 20, 1927 at Bel
mont Park. All candidates invited.

Coolidge Tax Cut
For Wealthy Only;
Aids Corporations

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-The Ad-
ministration's tax reduction program
was outlined at the Treasury Depart
ment today.
1t contemplates a total cut of $780,
100000, about $100,000,00O less than
advocated by senate republican lead
ers. Chief features are a one per
cent cut of the present 1871 per cent
corporation tax, a slight reduction of
the maximum surtax rates and
elimination Of practically all of the
remaining war taxes.
The plan will be submitted to the
Treasury Of the House Ways and
Means Committee when it meets on
October 81 to draft tax legislation.
A still greater cut, according to a
recent statement of the U. S. Cham
Der of Commerce, was contemplated
in the corporation tax. However, the
contemplated naval race and eventual
war with Great Britain required
funds. No tax cuts that materially
effect the poor are on the list sub
mitted by administration leaders, tho
a gesture is made by reduction of a
few taxes on the cheaper Injuries.

Especial Gable TO DAILY WORKEN).
MOSCOW, Oct IS. - Emphasizing
the achievements of the Soviet Union
with regard to the participation Of
women in various branches Of public
activity and their determination to
prevent an imperiahst war against the
Soviet Union, representatives of the
British, French, German, Austrian and
Polish women's delegations issued a
statement addressed to the Congress
Of Workers and Peasant Women.
The statement issued by the dele
cation points out that the Soviet
Union educates women and gives them
ample social service thru assistance in
the arrangement Of new infants and
children's homes, sanatoriurns and hos
pitfalls.
Impressed by Seriousness.
The seriousness with which the con-
grcss considered the various questions
raised evoked the admiration of the
foreign delegates. The independence,
the conscious attitude and the thoro
knowledge of essentials shown in the
Utterances Of the delegates, the state
ment said, are the result Of the self
government in the Soviet Union Gre
ated by Lelin under the name of Sow
lets which became the centers Of So
cialist construction.
Resist Imperialist War.
The statement says in conclusion,
I'VE engage ourselves as representa-
tives of western working women to
employ all Of our energy to the pur-
pose Of calling forth powerful resist
ance Of all working women against the
plans for intervention made by our
Governments and against all attempts
to involve our countries in a war with
the Soviet Union and to impede the
socialist construction of the Soviet
Union.
I'VE will respond to all attempts to
miHtarize women by fighting a decis-
i've battle shoulder to shoulder with
the revolutionary working masses for
the emancipation of toiling women
thruout the world"

Sixteen Communists
On Trial in Italy
BY GUIDO SARACENO.

The Special Court in Fascist Italy
which was set up under the exception
al law which the government issued
on the occasion Of the last attempt on
Mussolini in Bologna, was supposed
to meet only in exceptional cases in
order to pronounce judgement on
Grimes" which come within its
special jurisdiction. Instead, how
ever, this special court, ever since its
establishment, has worked uninter-
ruptedly as an organ of suppression
in the service Of the fascist state
A few examples will serve to illus
trate this. The special court has con-
demned persons who have only been
accused Of distributing Communist
leaflets or of being members of the
Communist Party of Italy-and this,
be it noted, before the C. P. was de-
clared illegal!-to 10 to y, and even
to Is years Imprisonment. (The case
Of Tarozzi in Toscana.) On the other
hand the ordinary court in Vercelli
district of Novara), after a three
days strike in the rice fields, SEN
fenced workers accused of distributing
leaflets calling on the workers to
strike, to few months Imprisonment.
874 Years In Jail.
In the first half year of 1927 the
special court has imposed sentences
of Imprisonment amounting in all to
874 years, while the ordinary court
has imposed in the same period 62
years.
Now, after a short holiday, this
court Of masked hangmen of brutal
fascist careerists has again met The
first trial is that of 16 Communists
from Brindisi who were arrested in
October 1926, that is almost a year
ago, on suspicion of being members
of the Young Communist organiza-
ton. At that time the exceptional
laws were not yet in force; the Com
munist Party was still q legal party
with a daily press and a parlia-
mentary fraction. The accused, all
Of them young people under q years
Of age, were condemned by the
special court to to years imprison-
ment.
