TOPEKA, Kan, July 5.-Pos-
sibly the rats rebelled. They got
tired of being chased and trapped
in a Chinaman's shop-without rec
ompense. Anyhow, Jung Kee had
managed to save $500, the profits
from a laundry.
The safest place. Kee thought,
was to hide his money in his own
establishment.
But he hadn't counted on the
rats. They found his hiding place
and chewed up ali his hard-earned
money.

ERA OF STRUGGLE
Brand Schlesinger Move
AS Hypocritical

A turning point of historic signi-
ficance in the struggles of the needle
trades workers against their betray-
ers and bosses was reached when the
conference of shop delegates, repre-
senting thousands of cloak and dress
makers, concluded its all day session
at Webster Hall Saturday evening.
The closing of the highly enthusias-
tic conference officially launches the
drive of the workers in the ladies
garment industry to regain bearable
living standards by the rebuilding of
a union which was smashed by the
attacks of the socialist officialdom,
the bosses and police.
Permanent machinery for the prose
cution of this campaign in New York
began their respective functions soon
after election of workers shop dele
gates. They include: a committee Of
executives called the Shop Council,
composed of representative from the
Joint Board, the Tolerance Group and
from the Chairmen's Committee of
so; a Resolutions Committee of IL;
a Press and Propaganda Committee
of 9; and an Organization Committee
of II, whose first task is to set up
an organization committee of 500
rank and filers.
The conference was held in answer
to the call of the National Organiza-
tion Committee, which is rallying the
cloak and dressmakers thruout the
country to a struggle against the
Sigman-Schlesinger clique for the re-
construction of a union in the indus
try.
Approximately eleven hundred shop
representatives, representing about
800 cloak and dress manufacturing
shops, according to an early report
by the credentials committee, partici-
pated in the proceedings with an en-
thusiasm seldom equalled in the
unions history. The delegates came
from registered and unregistered
shops, from organized as we'll as open
shops. Even shops of leaders of the

WILKES BARRE, Pa, June B.
Steve MENDOZA of Local Union 1903 is
on trial and being framed up for the
murder of Frank Agati. Already Sam
Bonita, the militant leader of Local
Union 1903, and it's president, has
been railroaded to the Eastern Peni-
tentiary. The machine led by Cap
pelini and John L. Lewis, not satisfied
with sending of Bonita to the peniten-
tiary is proceeding to prosecute Men

gust Lippi, International Organizer
Anthony Figlock, Travelling Auditor
John B. Gallagher, testified in court
and as usual these officials of the
Mine Workers Union are assisting
with the frame-up.
The trial is going on before the
same vicious, coal operators Judge
Mclean, who presided at the trial of
Sam Bonita. District Attorney Lewis,
is the one who is trying the case.
Other international organizers and
representatives such as Bursarello
are also testifying in the case 1t is
feared that the very same verdict that
was handed down in the Bonita case
will be handed down in the case of

lSpeeiaL to the DaiIu Workerl


ST. CLAIRSVILLE, Ohio (By
mail) -Seventy-five striking miners,
indicted on charges of rioting as the
result of attacks on picket lines made
by Belmont county police authorities
and mine guards, will never be
brought to trial, the National Miners
Relief Committee was informed yes
terday. The indictments pending
against the pickets were quashed in
common pleas court here yesterday
on the request of County Prosecutor
Paul Waddell In making his request
the country attorney said frankly that
he did not believe that "The charges
could be sustained in most instances"
Waddell is the same gentleman who,
in reflecting on the abrogation Of all
civil rights in Belmont county, de-
clared: "We have had to forget what
we were taught in school about
rights"
None of the 81 women pickets ar
rested in st. Clairsville April 81 were
included in the set of charges set aside
at Waddell's request. None of the 81
women had ever been indicted and it
lis assumed that the county authorities
viii not press the cases against the
women demonstrants.
Concurrent with the report of the
quashed indictments, the National
Miners Relief Committee received the
information that the last detachment
.of the Ohio national guard had been
withdrawn from the eastern Ohio
mining section. Ten officers will re-
main stationed in various parts of the
field as observers" it was announced
The exact functions of the National
Guard observers" have never been
defined. Several of the observers"
have, however, participated in and
directed attacks upon picket lines
made by deputies and United States
marshals in the past month.

Black shirt Tortures
Drove Him Insane

VIENNA, June 3.-First reports of
the trial of the Communists by the
fascist tribunal at Rome, which are
now leaking thru the Italian censor
ship, reveal that during the time of
their Imprisonment the accused had
no opportunity to make statement
of their innocence nor were they in
formed of the reason for their deten
sion.
In spite of the opposition raised by
the prosecution the court upheld the
defense in it's demand that documents
bearing on the case be read. The
reading occupied the first and second
session.
The prosecution further opposed the
motion of the defense that Azzario be
sent to an insane asylum as a mad
man but the court was compelled to
uphold the defense in this point alsc.
Azzario was arrested in 1927 when
he was the representative from Pana
ma to the Red International of Trade
Unions. He was deported from south
ern Italy but landed again at Genoa.
Azzario was in good health at the
time he arrived in Italy but the ter

CROP OUTLOOK
Good IN U.S.S.R.
Will DR. aw Peasants
Into Farm Plans

MOSCOW, u. S. S. R. (By MaiI) -
The spring field work in the Soviet
Union has been somewhat delayed in
view of the late spring. The spring
is from two to three weeks late and
in some places even four weeks. 0w-
ing to the slow melting of snow, CON
siderable quantities of moisture have
accumulated. This is very important,
especially for the districts suffering
from droughts. On the whole, accord
ing to the Peoples Commissariat for
Agriculture, the state of the spring
crops is satisfactory.
In this years spring campaign all
peasants who manifested great activ-
ity have been drawn into the scheme
of planned farming and increasing
the arabic soil. The sale of agricul-
tural machinery has considerably in
creased.
1t is worth mentioning that the
state has given considerable aid to
the poor peasants in the way Of seeds.
In the RSFSR alone, the peasants
have been given this spring in the
way of loan 437,350 tons of seeds
of different kinds, and about 100000
roubles in money.
In the Volga, southeastern and
Siberian districts, the winter crop is
better than average; in the Crimea,
North Caucasus and the Far East,
somewhat below the average.
