Build U. S. Nicaraguan Force.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Re-en-
forcements of at least 1000 marines
will be sent Immediately to partici-
pate in the campaign against the
Liberals. There are 1900 United
States marines in Nicaragua at pres
ent.
Seven American marines have been
killed and thirty-odd haze been
wounded, in the last engagements in
Nicaragua, apd General SANDING, the
Liberal leader, who defied President
Coolidge's specification" policy, is
still at large, leading a formidable
force of well-armed troops.
The American officials have been
stunned by the reverses suffered by
the marines during the past week.
They came at a time when the Of
ficials had been congratulating them
selves on the "pacification'' of Mica
ragua under what amounts to an
American protectorate.

OHIO MINERS ASK
GENERAL STRIKE

MARTINS FERRY, Ohio, Jan. s.
At its last meeting, Local 284 of the
United Mine Workers in this city
adopted resolution demanding a gen.
eral strike of the miners in order that
the present strike of the bituminous
miners may be won. The resolution
was sent to the International office
as sign of the growing spirit of
unrest among the miners who are not
satisfied with the manner in which
the strike is being conducted.
There is a growing spirit of resent
ment against the International Off
GERS. In the matter of relief, not
only this local but locals all over the
state are complaining about the fact
that the American Federation of La
Dor promised much, but practically
nothing is being done. Families have
to get along on S. in two weeks, and
that is totally impossible. AS re-
suit deep disgust is growing with the
International office. The miners know
that the International and district Of
ficials are getting their fat salaries,
while the miners have been out on
strike for nine months, and many of
them and their families are literally
starving.
The iniunctions which the officials
have decided to obey, have taken the
heart out Of the strike. 1t is all very
well for William Green to go to Wash
ington to get legislation taking away
the edge of the use of injuuctions,
but in the meantime, the injunction
against the miners is in effect, and
unless the miners themselves disre-
gard them, they will lose the strike.
The following resolution indicates
that the miners are not in agreement
with the position of the officialdom
and wish the strike to be broadened
Resolution.
WHEREAS, the employees in their
determination to destroy the trade
unions Of the country do not stop at
any steps; and
WHEREAS, in this attack on the
trade union movement they are open
ly assisted by the government, by
means of injunctions, sheriffs, mar
shals and even troops; and
WHEREAS, the use of injunctions
has become so widespread that it con-
stitutes one of the gravest dangers
confronting the organized American
working class; and government by in
junction, especially through the in
functions issued in connection with
the miners strike by the courts in
Pittsburgh and Steubenville, is be.
coming a serious menace and must be
combatted by all organized labor,
since otherwise the trade union move
ment will be completely destroyed;
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED
that this local No. 97l of the U. M
w. of A. goes on record in support OF
the recommendation of Brother VIM
Green, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, to "defy the in
Junction" and recommends that the
trade unions of the state OF Ohio
where injunctions are becoming the
daily rule. get together in conference
in order to devise ways and means
of fighting this menace to the or
ranized labor movement. and be il
further
RESOLVED that a copy Of this
resolution be sent to William Green
the Miners Journal and The DAILY
WORKER.

VIII Control Elections.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-In spite
of the severe casualties inflicted on
the United States marines during the
last week by the army of General
SANDING, the liberal leader, the State
Department persists in describing the
liberal forces as ordinary bandits"
in an announcement from the State
Department this afternoon.
The statement reiterated the State
Departments determination to super
wise the Nicaraguah national elections
this year.

bombs prepared to drop on the vic
torious SANDING armies. An attempt
will also be made to drop supplies and
ammunition to the besieged Amer
leans.
Constant Bombing.
Marine aviators have carried on
constant bombing raids against the
Liberals and believe they have inflict-
ed heavy casualties, but General San
dino's forces were heavily entrenched
and many of his men have deserted
mines to use for refuge, so that it
is difficult for the aviators to carry
out fully effective raids.
The intensification Of the rainy sea-
son which will effectually halt all
operations against the Liberal army
is compelling the American troops to
make desperate efforts to break the
Liberal resistance while the mountain
roads and jungles are still passable.
General SANDING with the main
body of his troops is reported to have
taken up his position on Ell Chipote,
large mountain near Quilali. San
dino has fortified his position and
declares that he will be able to hold
it against greatly superior forces.

GIRL GAINS FINAL
IN TITLE TOURNEY
Virginia Van Vie Is Playing
Glenna ColIett for
Championship.

BY the Associated Press.
7 T0T SPRINGS, Va. September
- 29-Two widely different roads
leading to the woman's golf
l. 4 championship of the United
States converged today for the
final 36-hole stretch.
The youthful Virginia Van VIE of
Chicago after a four-day struggle
against the most difficult opposition,
reached the crossroads with Glenna
Collect of Providence, who came through
the second bracket in the manner of a
steamroller. The coveted crown lay
at the end of the still greater test of
endurance.
Miss Collett. probably the longest
driver among the woman golfers, en-
tournament an opponent who might
force her to the limit from the tees.
But it was in another department of
the game that the Chicago star ex-
celled-the long iron to the green.
There was little fault to find in the
short game of either played.
After the first day of the tourna-
ment, when she defeated Mrs. Stewart
Hanley of Detroit, and S, Miss Van
VIE found the going difficult, and her
endurance and fighting heart received
rigid test. 1t took 10 holes to dis
pose of Edith Quier Of Reading, and
the full 10 to outdistance Marion Hol-
Inns of New York, but most difficult of
all was the great uphill semi-f1nal bat
tie against Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd
OF Philadelphia. Mrs. Hurd is rated
among her associates as one of the
greatest match players in the game
In contrast to these grueling matches
Miss Collect is yet to play the last two
holes in competition, although the cards
turned in by her opponents have fire.
quently showed Sub-par figures.
The long-hitting Providence girl first
disposed of Beatrice Gottlieb of New
York, S and 3; then conquered Mrs. J..
S. Disston of Philadelphia. and Z. 1t
was in the third round that she
reached her best form, defeating Vir-
ginia Wilson of Chicago the Canadian
champion, 3 and 2.
In the semi-flnals she was out in
even As or under par, against Mis-.
George H. Stetson of Philadelphia, her
self a former champion, and won q
and 3, despite the brilliant finish with
which Mrs. Stetson won three holes
and halved two on the incoming nine.
Miss Van VIE, who will be 20 in
February had thrice failed to win the
crown she sought today while her OPP
ponent had been acclaimed champion
in 1922 and 1925.
