NICARAGUA PROTEST MEET in WALL ST. ATTACKED
Taxi Chauffeur
Take Day
Hon.?

American "justice" becomes more
magnanimous day after day. Work
ers must have vacations, is it's latest
decree, regardless of whether they
have the money to procure vacation
or not.
This recent stand was illustrated
yesterday when Recorder Cain in
Bayonne yesterday sentenced Edward
Schilling, % years old, a taxicab
driver, of 181 West oath ST., to take
his wife, Julia, to Coney Island on
the fourth of July. Failure to comply
with the courts order, the omnipotent
recorder said, would mean a jail SEN
tence.
Mrs. Schilling had complained to
the judge that her husband "never
took her out" He said that he had
to work seven days a week in order
to procure living wage, and had no
time to go out for pleasure.
But American justice rectified this
wrong. Trust American justice for
that. Even if Schilling has to starve,
or lose his job.

parents, read this want ad in New
York newspaper yesterday morning.
They gathered outside III Madison
Ave. struggling for positions near the
entrance. The boys started coming
shortly after dawn and at $50 there
were about 250 of them crowding on
the pavement.
New Recruits.
New recruits kept pouring into
this youthful army of the unemployed.
They came by subway, by bus, by
surface car and many who couldn't
afford the carfare walked.
At 7:30 Che elevator operators Of
the building arrived and found the en-
trance completely blocked. Leo Frizon,
superintendent of the building, was
much annoyed and Immediately tele-
phoned to the E. 35th St. police station
frcm where a detachment Of police
was despatched. The polSce kept
order;" they showed the boys around,
threatened ana glared at them to show
them that the mighty arm Of "the
law" would have its way. And still
the boys kept coming from every
part of New York suburbs.
Walk Is Flights.
The office of Vredenburgh, Kennedy
Co. was on the 18th floor. A few of
the boys were taken up'by elevator,
but the rest were told to walk. They
walked. Up 16 flights to the door
of Vredenburgh, Kennedy Co., where
they crowded, waiting to be admitted,
each eager to prove his merit.
Many of them were already inside
the office where Miss May Maher,
secretary of the company, and several
men assistants were trying to throw
them out. But the boys were desper-
ate after their long wait and climb
and refused to move. Finally the
boys were thrown out and the door
locked. A sign was hung out: POSI-
TION ALREADY FILLED.
Then somehow the news leaked out.
1t spread from boy to boy, mingling
with their curses and cries of anger.
Vredenburgh, Kennedy Co. had hired
a boy at o'clock the day before. They
had forgotten to cancel the ad.

Inter-City Gang War
Seen in Thug Killing

Authorities of Americas two larg-
est cities were confronted today with
something new in criminal activities
an lnter-city gang war.
When Frank Uale, Brooklyn gang
chief, was shot to death here Sunday,
police attributed the killing to Chi
cago gangsters who had come here to
settle grudge against him because
of his activities in the midwestern
city's gang feuds. An exchange of
communications with the Chicago po-
lice seemed to bear this theory out.
And now the authorities of both
cities are inclined to the belief that
Chicago will be the scene of the next
murder, with New York assassins in
vading the western metropolis for re-
venge. Chicago police have been
warned to head off the invaders be-
fore they enter.

Is Dead, Is Severely
Injured in Indian Riot

CALCUTTA, India, July 3.-News-
paper advices say that fifteen per-
sons were killed and twenty-five more
severely wounded in religious rioting
at Khatgpur.
Hindus and Sikhs are reported to
have attacked a Mohammedan reli-
gious procession when it attempted to
pass Hindu temple.
Statements from members of the
different religious cults lay the blame
on the British authorities. They say
that the officials are doing all in their
power to incite such hatred and fights
among the different religions in an
effort to keep them from uniting and
forming a powerful national senti-
ment among themselves.

over HUNDRED
ARE Jailed IN
HORTHY TERROR
Torture Men, Women,
in Jails

Especial to The DAILY WORKER J
VIENNA, July 3.--In spite of de-
NAL by the Budapest government that
arrests involving more than hun
dred workers have been made within
the last few days, further arrests are
being made hourly.
Since the issuance of the official
denial IL more arrests have been re-
ported.
Earlier reports alleged that a
wholesale roundup of workers.
charged with spreading Communist
propaganda, was being carried out
by the Horthy authorities At least
one hundred workers, many of them
women, are reported to have been
victims of the police raids.
The government is endeavoring to
maintain wall of secrecy around
proceedings in Hungary, but some
details of the governments persecu-
tion are now available.
According to official report, the
arrested workers are being submit
ted to the most brutal torture by the
Jail and police authorities in their
effort to force them to make incrim-
inatory statements.
A gruelling examination preceded
the Imprisonment of most of the
workers. A few against whom no
accusations could possibly be main
tanned have been released by the au-
thorities- They continue to be under
the strictest surveillance, however.
Further examination of the pris-
oners is being arranged for immedi-
ately, and it is believed that the next
twenty-four hours will witness numer-
Gus other arrests.

MILL CITY MAYOR
TO PERMIT union
FAKERS TO PARADE
Bosses Lackey Endorses
u. T. w. Officials

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, July g.
Providing indisputable proof that the
/. leaders of the Textile Council Of the
Textile Workers are held in great es-
TEEN by the mill owners, Mayor Ash
ley, the one time recipient of $780,
600 gift from the mill bosses asso-
citation, announced yesterday that he
would gladly give parade permit to
the council officials, but "never to the
Textile Mills Committee" The entire
New Bedford police force broke up a
Textile Mills Committee parade last
Saturday after clubbing and injuring
many and arresting 20 participants.
Although the U. T. w. leaders have
not as yet signified their intentions of
accepting Mayor Ashley's offer of the
fullest police protection" for a
parade, the whole offer is recognized
as gesture of the authorities, made
to escape the severe condemnation for
Saturdays onslaught levelled at them
by the great majority of the city's
population.
Bosses Agents.
The effect of the whole maneuver
was entirely unlocked for by the mill
barons' agents, occupying city hall, as
well as the bosses agents at the head
of the Textile Council All that the
Mayors statement has so far ac-
complished is to announce to the 49,
600 textile strikers in the 18th week
of a struggle against wage cuts, that
the mayor and his bosses, the mill
owners, greatly prefer that they
should be led by Binns, Batty and Co.,
and not by the militant leadership of
the Textile Mills Committee.
This contention is overwhelmingly
sustained by the sentiments expressed
by hundHeds of workers, upon hearing
of Mayor Ashley's statement. These
strikers argue very simply, they say:
ANY labor leaders that are good for
Ashley, and therefore for the mill
owners, arc not good for u.s."
% Jailed.
The full list of the twenty-eight
strikers arrested at Saturdays parade
is as follows: Hannibal d. Costa, Eli
Keller, Marion Botelho, John Ares,
Rose Fernandes, Jack Rubinstein,
Manuel Peter, John Pelczar, Andrew
Bourassa, Bessie Katsikeras, Joseph
Julio, Manuel Moniz, Jose Madieros

do, Elizabeth Donneley, Joseph Pa

NATURAL RESOURCES OF THE
III. IS. S. r.

The immense resources of the So
Wet Union, which probably exceed
those of any other country, have been
explored only to a comparatively
small degree. In 1925 discovery
was made in the Ural region of potash
reserves which are believed to be
among the greatest in the world. The
Kursk anomaly, Of which extensive
studies have been made only recently,
gives evidence of containing iron ore
reserves as great as those of the rest
of the w0rld combined.

al ways understood that it would be the
duty Of the person bringing in the work
men to see that he.is transported back to

parties bringing ia the laborers to enter
into agreement with them to the effect
that they pay their passage back to their
native land. That's what | would DO il |
bring in any. J do not think the bond
should take care Of any transportation,
think it would furthey matters much
more il the party importing the laOorers
get his money right away. This statement
is based on my knowledge of the feelings
Of the people OF this island. If they have
to put up a few hundred dollars to bring
in these laboTers and know that they will
not be reimbursed right away it would
prevent many who need the service Of
such men from bringing them in. 1t should

for bringing them in and have someone
else to Offer them the laborers-a high

to send the men back have TO pay the
return transportation for lab0rerS who
