elected by his fellow members, his
principal job being to do the will of
the British government and the Cath
Ollie church. He holds no fealty to the
people of the Free State as they have
had no share in his election. To COM
pare Cosgrave to de Valera as lead
err is more or less absurd. The former
has never developed leadership stature
while de Valera has proved ability of
certain order.
To Meet Jimmie"
When the steamship docks, it is
due Thursday morning, the mayors
committee will be on the job to assist
in receiving Cosgrave. Grover Whal-
en-, chairman of the committee, has
become so accustomed to greeting all
kinds of European press-agented dig
nitaries that one more won't make
much difference in his busy life. Of
course there will be great crowd of
"cops" to add to the dignity of the oc-
casion, and then Jimmie Walker will
do some "wise-cracking" to the false
alarm president, and etc., etc. and so
forth as they say in the Dublin fish
market.
Host of Coolidge.
After the mayors reception the
party will move on Washington where
President Coolidge will be host to
Cosgrave. After the Washington do
ings in which, of course, the bankers
representatives in the state depart
ment will participate, other receptions
will be held throughout the country.
1t is expected that Cosgrave will be
back in New York about February 1,
and it's then things will begin to hap
pen when the trusty Irish patriots,
Dan Cohalan, John Dewey, Roddy
Kennedy and the rest of the boys get
out their dress suits.

Bentleyville Miners Aroused.

BENTLEYVILLE. Pa, Jan. 49,
Striking union miners here went out
in full force on the picket line yester-
day despite an injunction against
mass picketing. One picket was ar
rested by coal and iron policeman,
but was released after being warned
that he was violating an injunction.
The scab mine belongs to the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation of
which Charlie Schwab, the noted
"friend of labor" is head. A large
delegation from the Bentleyville To-
cal attended the recent emergency A.
F. of L. conference in Pittsburgh,
which considered relief for the strik-
ing miners, but did nothing more. The
Bentleyville miners supported resolu-
tons for mass picketing, Labor
Party, violation of injunctions and a
broader relief action at the confer
ence. The local is on the relief list of
the Pennsylvania Ohio Miners Relief
Committee, Gil Penn Ave-, Pitts

ers have been carrying on some
mysterious maneuvers in the last few
weeks. One of the developments
which has caused considerable COM
ment was the discharge of Rosen hal,
the attorney who has been represent
ing the three district organizations
in the anthracite /, 7, and 8, and en-
ployment of one Marianelli by Cap
pelini as attorney for District 1.
Confidential Adviser.
Marianelli was quietly admitted to
the bar in Pittston about two weeks
ago. 1t is claimed that he had been
practicing in Oklahoma, but is best
known as one-time manager of Pete
Latzko, a prizefighter of some repu-
tation in this section for whom he
secured bouts for in Oklahoma.

Miners Incensed.
The membership of the Pittston To-
calls are incensed by the murder of
Lilies and since there is obviously a
direct connection between the proposed
grievance strikes and the murder of
this opposition leader, left wing min
ers are advocating mass protest
strike.
To the serious unemployment here
ranging from 40 to SO per cent, and
the constant violation of the agree
ment by The operators, has been added
what m litant miners believe to be the
beginning of terror campaign
against all who oppose the operators
and the Cappelini machine. Immedi-
ate organization of all honest opposi.
ton forces to meet this situation is
urged here by progressives.

Not Moscow Gold.
"Much as the professional patriots
and their labor allies of the National
Civic Federation may whine about
Soviet Union propaganda in America,
trade relations with the Soviet Union
are growing every year. The unrest
and rad;calism among American
workers is created by American con-
ditions,--injunctions, coal and iron
police, yellow dog contracts, evictions
from company houses, and open shop
campaigns,--and not by Moscow gold.
An Accurate Picture.
"The more shaky becomes the rule
of the imperialists in their home coun-
tries, the more they will launch their
attacks against the Soviet Union and
all that it represents before the work
ers of the world"
"M you want to get reasonably
accurate picture of conditions in the

Dunn continued. "Read instead, the

on the premises of the striking
miners.
Another carload of coal and iron
police, nine of them, rode up and be-
gan running around the barracks,
brandishing their weapons and threat
ening to drive the strikers out of
their homes. They took Tony Chip
chik from the union barracks and
placed him under arrest.
Kill Woman's Pet.
The coal and iron police were in a
murderous mood. They wanted to
kill something. There was a dog in
front of Rudolph Tonasich's barracks
shanty. One of the company gun
men shot at him and missed. Mrs.
Tomasich, the owner Of the dog ran
out of the barracks with her baby in
her arms to bring in the dog. When
she was within two feet of the ami
NAL two shots rang out and the dog
fell dead. A coal and iron policeman
took the license that hung from the
animals neck and put it in his pocket.
All this took place while four mem
bers of the state constabulary were
on the ground.
Scabs Cheer Thugs.
There were forty coal and iron
policemen involved.
While the company thugs were run
ming amuck around the barracks,
scabs and their wives and children
were on the hillside cheering the out
rage.
The anger of the Pittsburgh Ter
minal Coal Company has been aroused
by the decision of the striking miners
to start mass picketing and smash
the injunction. The miners wives
and daughters also appear on the
picket line. The Coverdale strikers
are receiving relief from the Pennsyl-
yania- Ohio Miners Relief Committee
which in addition to giving relief
urges the miners to fight to save the
union by mass picketing and the vio-
lation of all strike-breaking injunc-
tions. AS result of this policy sew
eral locals have already started mass
picketing and the movement is spread
ing rapidly.
The Pittsburgh Terminal Com
pany's scabs in Coverdale were origin
ally armed and frequently fired on
the union miners. When a miners
wife appealed to state trooper for
aid he simply told her that if the

COSGRAvE, CT.
BRITAIN'S paid
SERVANT NEARS
Capitalists to Welcome
Workers Foe


With an assurance worthy of a
more deserving cause William T. Cos
grave is nearing the shores of the
United States with the brazen effront-
cry of expecting those of Irish birth
and blood in this country to accept him
as a representative of a majority of
the residents of the Irish Free State,
and the political machinery here has
been subjected to considerable capital
is5ic influence in order to put the
reception over big enough so as to
blind the people to the real facts about
this mercenary vassal of the ancient
tory order.
Not only the same old crowd of
bootlickers have been on the job to
make the Cosgrave reception a thing
out of the ordinary but even the giant
machinery of the state department
has been lending hand. 1t has al
lowed it's diplomatic representative in
Ireland to desert his post and come to
this country in order to make smooth
the way of the former Irish grocer
who would appear as a great leader.
Who He Is.
Right here is as good a place as
any to tell just who William T. Cos
grave is and why. Previous to the
partition of Ireland he was grocer
who inherited his business from his
father. Neither father nor son OBJ
jected in the old days to receiving
such little political crumbs as the Brit
ish government in Ireland allowed the
natives. They were nominated for
such offices as they received by the
grace of the Roman Catholic church,
the custodian of all such jobs.
A Safe Man.
With the new order, which was and
lis nothing but the old order camou-
flaged, Cosgrave was pushed forward
as "a safe man" by the churchmen.
He was minister of this and minister
of that until opportunity thrust him
into his present position where he has
spent more than four years without
accomplishing anything. Indeed at
the last general election the result was
so close that he is only hanging on to
his official job "by the skin of his
teeth"
Keeps Out of Dublin.
1t will interest Americans to know
that while Cocgrave is a resident of
Dublin he has never dared run for
membership in the Dali Eireann in
that city. He has always been elected
in outside counties, Carlow and Kilk-
emmy, where the Catholic bishops hold
the political whip hands without fear
of interference.
British Bidding.
Another fact about this creature of
the Roman Catholic church and of the
British government in Ireland that
should be known is that he is not the
president of the Irish Free State. a
position which the capitalistic press
insists on giving him. His actual lob
is president of the executive council
OF the Irish Free State to which he is

there not being a particle of doubt on

HAVANA, Jan. 19.-In order to

BOARD
TO BE SUSPENDED
Chile and Peru Agree to Move to
Foster Amity in Boundary
Settlement.

BY the Associated Press,
The State Department yesterday an
nounced that Chile and Peru, who re-
Gently resumed diplomatic relations,
have agreed to the suspension for four
months of the Tacna-Arica Boundary
Commission to permit the two countries
to carry on diplomatic negotiations
looking to the settlement of the long
standing dispute.
The State Departments announce
ment of this step said;
I'm view of the resumption of diplo-
matte relations between Chile and Peru
and the hopeful prospect that these two
countries may now be able to settle
this long standing dispute which, If
settled, will make unnecessary further
work of the boundary commission, and
in order to remove any possible source
of conflict which might render more
difficult a settlement of the whole mat
ter, the Secretary of State suggested
to both the Chilean and Peruvian gov
ernments that they agree to suspend
the work of the boundary commission
for a period of four months in order
to give time to permit negotiations for
a settlement. Both governments have
accepted the secretary's proposal and
have instructed their members on the
boundary commission to vote for such
a proposal which will be introduced by
General Morrow at the next meeting
of the boundary commission"

WGY TAKES ISSUE
WITH RADIO ORDER
Schenectady Station Also
ReneWs Application for
150,0C0-Watt Limit.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

Station WGY. Schnectady, has Joined
issue with the Federal Radio Commits
sion over its wave length assignment
ordered effective exactly one month
hence. 1t has applied for modification
of its license so that it may retain its
present wave length, and public hear
ing will be set for some day this month.
At the same time it is also renewing
its application, once denied for author
ity to broadcast with 100000 watts
This would make it the highest-powered
broadcasting station in the world
Harry Sadenwater, in charge of WGY'S
technical operations, predicted while
here that super power increases by
stages to 100000 watts or more are the
probable developments of the near
future. Station WGY has already
demonstrated the efficacy of 100000
watts in the highly successful past
midnight" trials last year.
In asking for the unprecedented
power the operators of the station re-
veal that they are ready to demon
state new development in broadcasting
that may be of inestimable scientific
value They are applying for this
power, however in the face of an off,
cial order, effective with the realloca-
ton, which restricts station power to
25. 900 watts The only exception per-
missible under the order Is that the
power of $4,000 watts, such as WGY
and a handful of other stations are
now using, may be granted on an
experimental basis.
The operators are also proceeding in
the face of unalterable opposition to
high power frequently voiced by the
chairman of the radio board, Judge Ira
'E. Robinson. He believes 5000 watts
sufficient for any station. On this score
he has been overriden by his colleagues.
several of whom want "the sky the
limit" because of the superior signal
quality obtsinable through high power
which more readily rides through
static and carries programs over longer
listening ranges But the fact remains
that Judge Robinson's insistence has
been at least partially responsible fos
the new limit of $4,000 watts.
