SAIL
FOR SOVIET union
Group Returns After 5
Months in u. S.

Two Russian engineers and six
workers sailed, yesterday on the "Ber-
engaria" after a five months study
of the Canadian and American paper
industries. Upon return to the Sow
let Union all of these men will be
employed in the $16,000,000 Volga
paper mill, to be completed this year,
which is the largest in the U. S. S.
R. and one of the most modern in
Europe.
Another engineer will remain here
for some time in connection with adj
ditional orders to be placed for Amer
lean paper mill equipment. This is
the third group of Soviet workers and
technicians sent here to acquire first
hand knowledge of American produc-
ton methods.
The Volga paper mill, which will
start partial operation this summer,
is designed to produce annually $4,000
metric tons Of newsprint and $4,000
tons of other paper. The new fac
tory will supply large part of the
requirements of the U. S. S. R. for
newsprint which heretofore has been
mainly imported from abroad.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 27. -
Thousands of women have marched
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia,
and the middle western bituminous
coal fields, since their men-folk went
on strike IA months ago. They have
marched on the picket line and in ev-
cry skirmish that has taken place
since the century's bitterest industrial
battle opened.
Motherir striking miners, and liv-
ing In constant fear of arrest, evic-
ticA, and every other method of ter
ror that company directed law and
order can muster while doing it, is a
job for real women. These women
glory in their chance to help their
men fight for better living conditions.
In spite of her heavy daily routine,
made doubly difficult by the strike,
Mrs. Louis Carboni, of Bentleyville,
has found time to keep a daily record
of strike events in her town. Ex-
cerpts from her diary tell story of
militant participation in strike activ-
ity by the women of Bentleyville. Part
Of her record kept in pencil on odd
bits Of papers.
The first entry on this section of
the dairy reads: eve had a mass
picket line, women, children, and men,
and we marched to the mine. Just
as we came to the mule barn, the
yellow dogs and the state dogs start

MURPHY, LABOR
BETRAYER, dead
Led s-Workers Into
Thompson's Hands

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 27, big
Tim" Murphy, long identified as
gangster and labor-baiter with the
corrupt Sullivan and Thompson adj
ministrations in this city, was shot
last night by members of an enemy
gang on the lawn in front of his
$4,000 cottage He was forty-two
wears old, and had served as right
hand man to almost every political
boss that ever controlled Chicago in
the last 20 years.
AS head of the street cleaners and
gas workers union, Murphy partici-
pated in two Of the blacklist labor
Afranle-ups on record. When Thomp-
Aon, at present mayor of Chicago, was
lrS&ng to seize power for himself and
def&t the Sullivan gang, then pol
itieal sSbosses of the city, he went
about it by getting control of all the
iob-contracts' of the city, and placing
lackies of his in the various unions
Murphy was made president of the
Gas Workers Union. AS such he re-
ceived salary of over 500 week
from the workers, while at the same
time he was betraying them into the
hands of the Thompson gang. All
through his notorious career, while
he lead an underworld gang, he was
used by the corrupt officials to be-
tray the workers Of the city.

Quoted from his sentence.
Ilona Brauer, accused of aiding
Kun, will receive one month in Jail.
She has already spent that much time
in prison and it is expected she will
be released at once.
George Mayerhoffer was acquitted.
/. L. d. Appeal.
Urging the intensification Of the
protest campaign for the liberation
of Bella Kun, Hungarian revolutionary
leader who is threatened with extra
dition and death at his trial which is
now going on in Vienna, the national
office of the international Labor De-
tense today issued an appeal to the
American labor movement and the
working class.
"Bela Kun, the leader of the Hun
garian working class revolutionary
movement, is on trial for his life"
reads the appeal. "The Austrian gov
eminent of the reactionary Seipel
whose hands are already red With the
blood of the Vienna workers which he
shed last July, will do all in its power
to extradite Bella Kun to Horthy's
Hungary where immediate death
awaits him at the hands of the
fascists.
Loyalty to Class.
"Bela Kun's crime consists in his
answering loyalty to the cause of
the working class. For US this is not
a crime but the highest virtue Of
labor leader. 1t is our sacred duty
to mobilize our maximum power to
prevent this hideous assassination.
Only immediate pressure exerted on
the Austrian government will effect
the liberation of Bella Kun. Every
workers organization must immedi-
ately forward it's protest to Vienna!
Meetings and demonstrations must be
arranged everywhere. Our voices
must be united in an irresistible de-
mand for the release of Bella Kun and
the full right of asy lum for all polit
ical emigrants! Act quickly" as

CONN, TRACTION
WORKERS AGAIN
VOTE FOR STRIKE
Last Ballot Betrayed By
Mahon

NEW HAVEN, Conn, June 27-
The $500 organized street car work
ers in New Haven, Hartford, SIAM
ford, Bridgeport and other Connect
cut cities today began to take a
second vote for a general strike
against the Connecticut Co.. sub
sidiary of the New Haven R.R. Great
dissatisfaction was voiced among the
workers with the action of w. o.
Mahon. president of the Amalga-
mated Union in calling off the walk
out.
The sentiment among the workers
indicates an overwhelming desire
for walkout. The Central men de-
mand 70 cents an hour instead of 81
cents on two man cars; an increase
from SO cents to 80 on one man cars;
and from u cents to 80 on busses.
The six day week, eight hour day,
and official recognition of the union
are also demanded.
The action of Mahon in calling off
the strike added to the long list of
the labor betrayals by the reaction
airy officials Of the Amalgamated.
Manufacturers of Connecticut have
formed united front with the trac-
tion bosses by offaring to supply
strikebreakers from among their en-
ployees.

in all directions to save our lives.
This day we had five men beaten.
They dubbed brother Martin Vilentick
very bad as he is still in bed, and
other ones on the arms, hands and
legs and anywhere they could get
them. They threw tear bombs at us
on this day and they took one of our
sisters, Flora Masanovic, to Jail. She
did not do anything. But the other
sisters went right after and wanted
her out. THE woman was released
on bail.)
The presence of the striking coal
dlggers' women on the picket line is
gesture Of protest against all of the
unsung sacrifices made by the women
since the gruelling industrial struggle
started on April /, 1927. Consider
Mrs. Charlie Sanders of Curtisville,
who was compelled to give up her
beautifully enamelled and nickeled
stove which she had bought from a
Pittsburgh credit furniture house.
Only $50 out of total of several hun
bred which was paid on the other
furniture acquired with the stove, re-
NAMED to be paid.

lenaur, whose washing machine was

ished by the strike, she had found it

concluded.
After the picketing this morning
two mass meetings were held on open
lots at the North and South End of
the town. They were attended by
several thousands, and showed the
greatest enthusiasm.
Fighting Spirit.
The fighting spirit shown by the
strikers during this and last week,
which was marked by police attacks
on the picket lines and the inprison-
ment of the two union leaders Muir
doch and Beal, indicate that the call
for a parade on Saturday will result
in vast outpouring of scores of
thousands of strikers and sympathi-
zers.
A demonstration of such great
power and strength is obviously just
what the politician hirelings of the
mill barons want to avoid, the T. M.

Used Trickery

INDIANAPOLIS, June 81. - The
hand of the Ku Klux Khan is once
more revealed directing large-scale
corruption and graft in Indiana. This
time Archibald Hall, who was de-
feated for the republican nomination
for Congress by Representative Ralph
E. Updike, Khan candidate, charges
the use of all sorts of ballot trickery
to steal the election.
Halls charges will be submitted to
the new country grand jury next
week, according to William Remy,

work hard at best, such losses may
assume the proportions of life trag-

Mrs. Carboni's diary continues:
Tuesday, April II. Our women called

iliary of the local union) and called
all the sisters together Of which there
were anywhere from 200 to 300. We
said we did not want men to come
along with US. SO after the meeting
said let's go ladies with the babies
in our arms and see if they will do
us as they do the men. So we went
and we did not get half way until
they struck an old lady, 63 years old
on the head with a bomb (tear gas
bonb) and caused very deep cut
and they threw about two or three
dozen tear bombs at the crowd and
told us If we did not keep away from
the picket line we will get what is
coming to us. So we told them that
we are taxpayers and we will fight
for our rights and we did. We took
our wounded old lady to the burgess
but he was not home so we went to
the doctor. We started out that morn
ing and did not finish until ten O'Clock
at night. We saw the burgess"

we battle too for men,
