Workers Must Help Saue Union by Sending Copies of DAILY

More than 300 miners in the anthra-
cite regions in Pennsylvania have sent
in requests that free subscriptions to
The DAILY WORKER be sent to
them.
These 300 miners know what the
Daily has meant to them in their
struggles. They know that The
DAILY WORKER is the only English
language newspaper that they can
look to for unflagging support in
their fight against the coal barons
and the corrupt Lewis machine. And
they represent only small part of
the thousands of striking miners who

sident and his henchmen in the gen.
eral board, for attempting to demor-
alize the ranks of the strikers, who
are conducting a bitter struggle
against the piece-work demand of the
bosses.
Opening the discussion against the
decision of Zaritsky, Salzburg pointed
out that the reason for his removal
from membership in the general ex-
ecutive board and from the leadership
of the strike, was that he had sent
out a letter to all the locals telling
of the plans of the right wing official
dom in control of the union to assist
the employers in obtaining the piece
work system in spite of the opposition
to piece-work by the membership.
In the letter he also exposed the
carefully mapped-out campaign Of
the right wing to begin a fight
against the progressives in the union
by removing from leadership mill
tants in several locals of the union.
He told of a plan to depose Anna
David, organizer of Local So, the best
organized local in Chicago, and
leaders of other cap and millinery To-
calls in New York and Boston.
After the discussion, in which
nearly all those present joined in de-
nouncing the union wrecking activities
of the general board, the vote of con-
fidence was overwhelmingly carried.

TRUE NATURE OF
SCHEME EXPOSED
BY union LOCAL
Penn. Ohio Committee
in Urgent Appeal

BELLAIRE, Ohio, April 13.-Re-
lief work which has been conducted
in Eastern Ohio for the benefit of
the destitute children of striking min
ers by the Ohio National Guard will
be discontinued on April 25, accord
ing to statement issued by Adiutant
General Frank D. Henderson, who
says that contributions to relief have
practically ceased.
This relief drive of the National
Guard was started several weeks ago
as a political move on the part of
Governor Dohaney, with the object
Of gaining favor among the voters
and also to undermine the determine
ton of the miners to fight for a VIC
tory in the strike.
This fact was pointed out by the
Pennsylvania Miners Relief
Committee at the time. Events have
justified the warning.
1t was made clear before long that
instead of raising money for relief
the guardsmen were being used for
strikebreaking purposes, quelling de-
monstrations and arresting strike
pickets.
Stop Relief.
The relief work, such as it was, is
called off now, it is believed here,
because the militant spirit of the min
ers has been on the increase and the
progressive forces are sweeping the
fossilized leaders out of the union Of
fees.
The following report is made by a
committee of Local Union 2O2, Hol-
lister, Ohio:
conditions among the miners now
out on strike here are terrible. II is
reported one man starved to death
this last week. Our benefits are cut
down to rs cents a week, no matter
how many you have in the family
"Our state and national leaders do
not seems to be doing thing to help
US out, and all we got to do is sit
around and starve.
when the Pennsylvania Ohio Re-
lief, Gil Penn Ave-, Pittsburgh, sent
the $4,000 to the committee here at
Glouster, there was big yell out of
q lot of them, but now the yell is not
so pronounced. In fact they feel they
talked too quick.
Officials Approve.
"Scab mines are working in the
valley, some that are supposed to be
paying the scale are working but they
scheme to get around the scale in
some way. The officials approve of
it.
They tell us the National Guard
will stop feeding the children April
25th, but it is reported they will keep
a force of men here for military
work!
Some of the ministers have main
tanned relief stations for several
months. Now they are also closed.
So all in all it is very desolate fu-
turer that faces Hooking Valley, espe-
cially around Glouster, Ohio.
"(Signed) Committee, Local 202.

When the search party leaves the railroad it will be forced to travel by canoe. or some other light boat through the pass behind Blacksand Island, then up the Ahrnklin river for several miles. The boat used by the party will have to be port aged overland to the Dangerous River, then overland again to the [talio River. It is below the mouth of the Italio River that the wreck was reported to have been seen.
 How many days 1t will take the party to make the search and re- turn to Yakutat depends entirely on the condition of the country that it must cross over The searching trip will take at least several days travelling under the best of conditions.

one of the main purposes for which quota laws were enacted. namely, to prevent further oYer-croWding of our labor market.
 Has No Prejudice
 q want to say emphatically that I entertain no prejudice against the people of any country, but being absolutely convinced that the bar riers that have been erected to prevent the coming of unlimited European labor have proven to be highly beneficial, 1t is impossible 10 avoid the conviction that the in dustrial situation ought to be guarded aganst the difficulties and dangers which will almost cer- tainly follow the unlimited immi- grafton of workers from another source"
 To prevent the separation of families, the measure indorses the suggestions that heads of families be not allowed 10 enter the United States until passports under the quota were also available for the wife and children, but proposes to let the members of now separated families be reunited under less onerous delay.
 Agricultural Labor
 Secretary Davis also questions the operation of the law favoring Immigration of agricultural labor, as having failed to attain effec- tiyeness. and suggests alterations.
 Recent court decisions by which aliens resident. in Canada have obtained permission to cross the border into the United States were most regretted in the report.
 If these decisions are upheld, it will be impossible to prevent the entrance into the United States of aliens of any race or cclor who may gain entry to Canada, it ob- serves, after stating that appeals to the Supreme Court are still pending. "If the final decision of the Supreme Court is against the government, then the present immigration law will be no longer of any effect as a protection to the wage earner of the United States as against alien labor of foreign countries. whether Cana dian, Mexican or European"

License Plates
Short of Total

Cameron county residents are
still not availing themselves OF the
opportunity TO obtain the 1928 auto
license plates, j. ]. Fox, county tax
collector stated Saturday night. To
date only 1900 plates have been
issued, $500 Of these being to per-
sonal cars. while 500 were for COM
mercial vehicles.
This is far short Of the 10000
plates issued for 1927, and there Is
undoubtedly more automobiles in
Cameron county now than there
were a year ago, Mr.. Fox said.
A fine of 25 per cent on all unpaid
automobile licenses will be assessed
after the first of February, the Of
fetal stated. There will be no ex-
emptions to this ruling, he declar-
ed Other unpaid taxes will be
fined at the rate Of 10 per cent Of
the total with no exceptions made,
he added.

Light, Fox Says

Poll tax receipts issued up TO 8

James J.. Fox. county tax collector,
stated Saturday night. On top OF
these 126 persons were declared ex-
empt from the tax.
This figure is woefully small,
when compared t o the expected to-
tai, and when the fact that it Is
the presidential election year. that
Houston has just been awarded the
next democratic national convention,
and that this should be a big poll
teal year for all Texans is consid-
cred, Mr.. Fox said. !.
he again issued a warning to all
AK yer that il Will be illegal
for him to accept poll tax payments
after January 81.
More than 5000 persons paid the
tax during 1927, and at least 10000
are expected to avail themselves OF
the privilege to vote this year, he
stated. In all probability there will
be a heavy last minute rush. and
many Of those who otherwise might
have paid the tax will pe unable TO
do so. the collector believes.
All banks in Cameron county have
been authorized to collect the tax,
Mr.. Fox said.
