been badly bruised, were suffering
from exhaustion and the rigors Of
the severe winter weather.
Numerous corpses were found
strewn along the rocky shore, and
it was apparent some of them had
died after reaching land, where they
lay exhausted and exposed to the
intense cold. Only six persons are
known TO have survived of the 295
or more aboard the vessel.

.ASSAIL BRITISY
LABOR TRAITORS
Withdraw From Fake
Conference

LONDON, July 9.-The posi-.
ton of the British Labor Party
against independence for India Wa.
affirmed here in a statement ISSUED
yesterday. The declaration followed
the sensational withdrawal from the
Commonwealth Labor Conference
last Wednesday of the entire In
dian delegation, led by Chamankal
after resolution demanding the in
dependence of India was throw
out.
The insincerity of the British la
Dor reformists is revealed clearly
the Indian delegates pointed out, b.
the fact that the resolution was no
even read by the conference dele
gates or circulated. They furthes
charged that the British Labor Par
ty was hostile to midas deman,
for independence and sympathetic
to the Indian Statutory Commission
headed by Sir John Simon.
A particularly scathing attacl
has been levelled against Georg,
Lansbury, Labor NJ. P, for his as
sertion that the interests of Indian
labor were "safeguarded by British
labor representation on the Simon
commission"

O-SLAV jAILS
ARE HE'LL HOLES
Rats in Food, Disease;
Indescribable Tortures

JUGO SLAVIA, July 9-The
prison near the small town of Po-
jarevac is to receive the young
Communists who were recently con-
victed in Belgrade. The prison of
Pojarevac differs in no way from
the other awful prison of Jugo-
slovakia and is called the He'll of
Poiarevac. Political prisoners are
treated as the worse kind of Grim
inals and have no political rights.
The prison administration expro-
pirates the sums that are supposed
to be used for the prisoners and al
lows them to starve. No one is con-
cerned about it, since this art of
thievery of the state officials is a
system in Jugoslavia.
The dirtiness of these prisons
surpasses all description. Oft>n the
prisoners find cooked rats and mice
in their food. One prisoner who
once showed the director such a
cooked mouse, was so mishandled
that he lost consciousness.
There are no facilities for bathing
in this prison. The cells are
covered with human refuse and are
never disinfected. Among the pris-
oners there are about forty syphil-
itics who were not accepted by other
prisons. tuberculosis runs rife.

CREEK CHAMBER
IS DISSOLVED

ATHENS, Greece, July 8. = The
chamber of deputies was dissolved
today in accordance with the de-
mand of the newly appointed pre-
mier Venizelos, who was called in
to power by the president after the
great strike of the tobacco workers
and soldiers in Greece. Venizelos,
called the "strong man of Greece"
was premier until several years ago,
and his iron rule was again sum-
moned when Greece was threatened
with revolution at the time of the
strike.
The American Tobacco Company,
which controls the factories where
the rotten conditions forced the
workers to strike, is said to have
played a big hand in the re-instal-
lation of the imperialist and labor
hating Venizelos.
At present, reports from Greece
state that the president, who Off
cially called Venizelos back to the
premiership, and the premier, are
clashing on the question which We
nizelos proposed, embodying a
change in the voting system. /.

SCOTT NEARING,
WEISBORD WILL
Be SPEAKERS
Demonstrate Against
Imperialism

NEWARK, N. j., July 9, = The
Ratification Convention of the
Workers (Communist) Party in
New Jersey to ratify state candi-
dates chosen for the 1928 elections
will be held on August 5 at 10 a. M,
at the Workers Progressive Center,
90 Mercer St., here. 1t will be pre-
coded by Red Proletarian Banquet
on Saturday evening, August a, at
8 p. m. at the same place.
Since this date is the same as that
of the 14th anniversary of the Open
ing of the last World War, the ban
quet will be made the occasion for
a tremendous demonstration against
the danger of a new world war, and
the menace of American Imperial
ism. Among the speakers at the
banquet and at the convention will
be Scott Nearing, noted authority
on American Imperialism and Work
ers (Communist) Party candidate
for Governor of New Jersey, and
Albert Weisbord, leader of the Pas
sale Strike and candidate for U. S.
Senator.
In a letter sent to various labor
and fraternal organizations through
out the state and vicinity, the fol-
lowing note was stressed:
"The election campaign this year
Is of the greatest significance to
the workers of this state. Now, Jer-
sey, the home of big corporations
and special interests, notorious for
its anti-labor record, is ruled by the
democratic machine through Mayor
Hague and by the republican ma
chine through U. S. Senator Edge,
the corporation lawyer. Those two
parties are functioning more and
more openly, as agents of Big Bus
mess. Injunction after injunction
has been issued against workers on
strike. Free speech has been vio-
lated in many cities. Police terror
and brutality have been practiced
with IMMUNITY as in the Passaic tex
tile strike. Unemployment has been
steadily rising, but no relief has
been given to the unemployed in the
industrial centers.. The killing of
labor bills in the New Jersey legis-
lature is a constant practice. Big
Business, especially the railroad and
public service interests, dominate
the government of New Jersey.
"The New Jersey State Ratifica-
ton Convention is part of the Ma
tional Election Campaign of the
Workers (Communist) Party and
will be the beginning of the cam
paign among the New Jersey work
ers. 1t will mobilize them against
the Hague democratic machine,
against the Edge republican ma
chine, against the socialist party,
which today is following in the foot
steps of the capitalist parties"
