 Several thousand persons were on hand to greet the state executive when his train reached Diltmorc station yesterday. At way stations during the final stages of his trip from the north others gathered to welcome him 10 the state.
 In selecting North Carolina for q vacation retreat, Governor Smith not only picked q state which fought him to the last in the 1924 demo- evidence Of opposing him this year, both of the United States senators from that state-Simmons who is democratic national committeeman and Overman--arc in the opposition camp as are all the members of the North Carolina congressional delega- ton. except Representative Kerr. and practically all the recognized democratic leaders in the state, in- cluding Josephus Daniels. who has come out for Walsh.
 Voted For NcAdoo
 Tn 1924. the state delegation voted solidly for McAdoo for 26 ballots then split to give John w. Davis some support. On one of the late ballots. after smith had reached his zenith. the governor received one. half a vote from North Carolina, but that is all he got and then only OF one ballot

Miners Warned
COPS Will SLIP
Guns ON Them
Troopers Try to Break
Youth Meeting
(By Worker Correspomdemt)


DICKSON CITY, Pa, (By Mai) -
The mine workers of Dickson City
and vicinity have decided to organize
a Young Miners Club at the meet
ing held in Sidorovich's Hall on April
80.
Stanley Dziengielewski, chairman
of the tri-district Save-the- Union
Committee was invited to speak on
the conditions in the miners union
and the mining industry. He spoke
in Polish first and then in English.
All those present, about 200, applaud
ed him enthusiastically when he men
toned a six-hour day and five-day
week as the solution for the miners
unemployment. He asked the men:
Who w;uld they rather see go from
the miners camp, the 10000 unem-
ployed miners, or John L. Lewis with
his foolish reactionary policy?
When the meeting had been In ses-
sion about 20 minutes, the Lacka-
wanna County Sheriff Mirtz, with
seven or eight state troopers, entered
the hall. The sheriff and the troopers
walked from one side of the hall to
the other, swinging their clubs in or
der to scare up the audience. But
everybody remained quiet and patient
listening to the speakers.
Finally the sheriff walked up to
the speakers table and took the notes
Dziengielewski was using for his
speech. He then called all of the state
troopers and secret service men and
discussed the notes with them. Then
he asked for our permit. He was
shown the permit. So he waited until
the speaker had concluded his speech
and adjourned the meeting. Then he
asked him questions.
The sheriff put the notes in his
pocket and took the speakers name
Then he searched everybody. Accord
ing to the story in the Scranton Re
publican one gun was found.
The progressive miners of the Save
the-Union Committee warned the
sheriff and his dicks that at the next
meeting they will search everybody
entering the hall, and'>if they find a
stool-pigeon or provocateur with a
gun they will politely ask him to stay
away from the meeting.
They also warned the rank and file
miners to watch their pockets when
they go to a meeting so as not to al
low some stool-pigeonto slip in gun
or something else into their coat
pockets, for we know their game.

tribute heavily to this stronghold of

institute doing its utmost to defeat

zEITLIN SPEAKS
ON Soviet union
Workers Party Meet Is
Large in Denver
(Bu a Worker Correspondent

DENVER, (By MaiD.-On Sunday
afternoon, April 20. Louis Zeitlin, Of
Denver, spoke on Intimate Glimpses
of Soviet Russ a." at the open forum
held under the auspices of the Work
crs Party at the I. L. D. hall.
Comrade Zeitlin and his wife made
a very extended tour of Europe during
1927. He told of quite a number OF
experiences he had visiting around
among the peasants and people living
in small towns. The only large city
they visited was Moscow He made
it his business to go right out among
the peasants and people working and
living on the land and asked their
hundreds of questions and in that way
found out the attitude Of the peasants
towards, the Soviet regime. He related
many experiences he had out among
the peasants. One time q crowd of
peasants surrounded them and thot
they had counter-revolutionist
among them, and after it was all
cleared up by showing quite a number
# papers the peasants all had a good
laugh and said they were going tc
write the affair up and publish it in
their peasant paper. 1t happened to
be about the time that feeling was
running high against England among
the Russian people.
While the open forum had a gooo
crowd for a nice warm Sunday after
noon the right wing of the Work
mems Circle of Denver mustered only
80 people to listen to Chenauslly, ar
anarchist from New York, talk on OF
agaist Russia and the left wing move
ment He spoke in Jewish and he be-
rated the audience for being so small
and told them they had better shut VI
shop if they couldn't do any better
In order to try to make the expenses
of the meeting he charged all those
asking questions SOC each.
On Sunday evening five members
Of the Workers Party went to Fred
erick, Colo, and spoke at "Save the

ing was very successful and quite {

The seamen find it increasingly
hard to be employed aboard ship
as the crowds at the various shipping
offices testify. They wait long hours
in musty, swelly rooms waiting for a

and dark room is massed with seamen
waiting behind high partition wait

At long intervals Joe appears and
the waiting mass OF men push ana

to be the next lucky one.
The packed room reminds one OF

job as the scraps Of food, the appear

But the one WIN is favored with work
is not employed yet by any means.
He must see the doctor for an O. K.
After replying to a barrage of quls-
tions from an office hoy, he is re-
CURED to strip for examination.
If he passes he is sent out to the
job. If he is employed in the engine
room he applies to the engineer who
usually is of the hard boiled type.
The engineer usually demands more
than one previous discharges, and il
lost or not produced or for any reason
at all, sends you back minus job, car
fare and time to another long wait.
There is no redress and you must
try again; strong protest will re-
suit in being blackballed. There are
many seamen who have waited fol
weeks with no success. There is in
evidence strong suspicion that
favoritism is practiced in that certain
men are placed on good ships quickly
and without delay.
These and worse conditions prevail
among other shipping offices. There
is a serious surplus of seamen search.
