AS the result Of Judge Atwells decision that the
railroad commission Of Texas may not insist upon the
financial responsibility or the equipment adequacy Of
interstate bus lines, these enterprises will be uu-
supervised to a large extent. The basis or the de-
eision is pretty clear, and the situation is inherent in
our form Of government to a considerable degree. The
court merely asserts the federal authority to regulate
interstate commerce. But the fact that the federal
government is not exercising this authority with regard

and gold sparks; shells shooting 500
feet in the air, producing an aerial
battle scene of several hundred minor
explosions, all are included in the
p%yrotechnic exhibition planned for
the 1928 State Fair.
"The program gives promise of a
display of creative originality, brill
liancy of coloring and handling never
equaled before" Mr.. Thomas said.
"Three arenic displays will be made,
1000 square feet of pyrograph built
each night by the Hit Fireworks

huge American flags, figures on
horses, cows, pigs, clowns and such;
mammoth rockets, exploding to
throw off many colored streamers,
cumulous clouds, and smoke screens
wriggling like snakes through the
skies.
The evening exhibition will be
much more elaborate and will include

being held without bail for the Grand
Jury on the charge of having muir
derously assaulted Mike Fineman, a

The Joint Board attorney pointed
out to Magistrate Rosenbluth, sitting
in Jefferson Market Court, that Fried
had previously been convicted of bur-

prison term up to six years. Rosen-

who has just returned from a trip
thruout the country, on which he
started December 16, 1927. Gitlow's
trip was mainly for the purpose of
making a study of Party conditions

Party in the west. He addressed
many of the I.enin memorial meet
ings that were being held in the cities
he visited.
Generally, economic conditions are
continually growing worse" Gitlow
stated. "There is an increase in un-
employment and part-time work, and
great reduction in wages. In Cali
fornia, particularly, the bosses are
organizing to wage big open-shop
war against the building trades. In
San Francisco, with a population of
$4,000, there are $4,000 unemployed;
in Los Angeles, population, 100000,
there are 100000 unemployed; and in

Nearly 1000 unemployed workers
from virtually every section and in
dustry of New York crowded into
Manhattan Lyceum, Al E. 4th St., and
organized themselves into the New
York Council for the Unemployed.
This council is the basis of what is
soon to become city-wide, statewide
and later a nationwide body of action
for the relief of workers being cast
out on the streets by the hundreds of
thousands in the present breakdown
Of capitalist production.
Under the leadership of the New
York Council for the Unemployed
steps will be taken to translate this
first mass protest meeting into
demonstration demanding the atten-
ton of city officials, the state govern
ment and finally the government at
Washington.
Pressure on Labor Officials.
Not only will pressure be brought
to bear upon city and government Of
'ficials, but the power of the unem-
ployed will be united with members
in trade unions throughout the coun-
try to force the officials of the labor
movement to take up the issue of un-
employment.
A delegation from the meeting ap
peared last night before the meeting
of the Central Trades and Labor
Council as the first step in that direc
ton.
They were informed that they could
not be given the floor until they re-
ceived the permission of the execu-

Interborough increased fare move was
charged yesterday by a former promi-
nent city official who preferred to
keep his name secret.
Announcement that the State Tran
sit Commission will join in the fight
to prevent the Interborough from put
ting into effect its seven cent fare in
crease followed upon the statement by
city officials yesterday that they
would oppose the attempt by the COM
pany.
A meeting of the Transit Commits
sion, however, failed to produce any
tangible plan of procedure. Nor did
Mayor Walker, speaking for the city,
indicate any particular method by
which he would seek to prevent ths
move.
Company To Get Injunction.
In the meantime, those close to the
Interborough hint that the company
is planning to apply to a supreme
court justice for an order preventing
the city or the Transit Commission
from interfering with the operation
of a fare increase.
Open charges are being made that
the city officials, with the Tammany
Hall machine in the background, the
traction officials and the Transit
Commission indirectly, are behind the
move to compel fare increase pre-
liminary to the final disposition Of
the traction problem under So
called "unification" scheme. The plan,
it is charged, is to permit the Inter-
borough officials who own no stock in
the road and are not the real repre-
scntatives of the industry to force
fare increase through the courtA The
city officials will flight" the attempt
bitterly, but will lose in the end.

HOUSE BUILDS
BANKING TRUST

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. g.
The House yesterday amended the
Clayton antitrust act so as to allow
directorates in banks,
even between joint stock land banks
and state banks net members Of the
Federal Reserve system. The powers
of the Federal Reserve Board to ap-
prove of or prevent such mergers was
also increased, thus making it pos
sible for the board, under the domina-
tion of the largest banks, to discrimin-
ate against small rival mergers.
At practically the same time that
the way was made easy for the au-
thority of the banking trust, and
the centralized control over
it, by the inner clique on Wall Street,
a measure designed to provide PEN
sions for employees of the Federal
Reserve Board on their retirement at
an advanced age, was killed. II am
against the principle of such bills"
declared Representative Madden (R.)
chairman of the House Committee on
Banking and Currency.
