WILKES-BARRE, Pa. (By MaiD d.
The 'insurgent' officials of Dis
trict 1, U. M. W. A., headed by
Frank McGarry, have launched a
new and separate anthracite union.
At meeting held Saturday evening
at Carpenters Hall about 80 picked
followers endorsed the formation Of
the Anthracite Mine Workers
Union Of Pennsylvania" and in
structed the officials to call mass
meetings, to visit locals and to carry
on the necessary steps for the build
ing of their new union.
The decision did not come as a
surprise to anyone. The formation
of a separate union was the logical
step for the once powerful insurgent
movement, double by its
founders, Brennan, Isaacs, ETC., and

cause of this unprincipled leader

The insurgent movement was the
result Of a mass revolt against the

Not to be otdone by the recent
war maneuvers of British imperial
ism over the city of London, Uncle
Sans war machine is this week
staging a military demonstration
over New York City, which is no
doubt intended to inject a few after
thoughts into the head of John Bull
whom Uncle Sam is watching more
and more suspiciously.
All the instruments and agencies
of the next war will be mustered in
a huge pageant in preparation for
the Military Show to be held in
Madison Square Garden for week
commencing Monday evening, Oct.
Is.
Several thousand members of the
New York National Guard and Ma
val Militia will stage parades thru
out this week.
Today the 102nd Medical Regi-
ment will parade. Infantry and
other detachments will deploy later
in the week. Parades will also be
staged in the Bronx and in Brook
lyn.
One of the features of the i'm
perialist war show will be massive
demonstration of air and bombing
craft. The air force will "bomb"
Times Square from overhead. The
212th Anti-Aircraft Regiment will
repel the aerial attack with search
lights, artillery and machine guns.
Tanks, cannons, machine guns,
bombs, poison gases and other forces
of wholesale murder and destruc-
tion will be put through the motions
of saving civilization.

Fosters speech follows, in part:
"Here in the South both republi-
cans and democrats have united in
disfranchising the Negro, in main
tanning peonage wherever possible
and in mercilessly exploiting thou
sands of Negro workers, who are
in many respects worse off than
they were before the Civil War. But
bitter experience is teaching the
Negro workers to realize that only
b. joining with their white brothers,
and fighting side by side with them
can they win complete political and
economic emancipation.

Police Search
"ROte Fahne"
for .Abduct0y'

BERLIN, Oct. 8.-Offices of the
"Rote Fahne," central organ of the
Communist Party Of Germany, were
raided last night by the police in a
search of documents and persons
which might lead to the arrest of
those responsible for the "deten-
ton" of Wolfang Schwartz, editor
of the social-democratic Vorwaerts,
while on his way to the radio sta
tion to deliver a pacifist speech.
He was replaced" by Carl
Schultz, Communist deputy in the
Prussian Diet, who spoke into a
microphone which denounced the So
cial democratic governments naval
construction plans to listeners thru
out Germany.
The police left without having
found any clues to Schwartz's de-
tainers and the foiling of the Ger
man censor.
Herr Zorgiebel, president of the
Berlin police has declared that he
will severely punish all the Commu-
nists concerned in the episode, but
thus far he has been able to punish
only the radio announcer, who was
dismissed for allowing Communist
to speak and broadcast Communist
views thru a nationwide hook-up.
Carl Schultz, cannot be arrested
because he is granted immunity as
member of the Diet. Many news
papers here have expressed the
opinion that the matter should not
be pushed since a trial on such a
sensational subject would mean toe
much publicity for Communism.

All the LODI textile workers. COM
prising 80 per cent of Poland's tex
tile workers, are striking. A clash
occurred yesterday at LODI, when
police attempted to disperse mon
ster street demonstration led by
Communists. Twenty of the leaders
were arrested.
A second clash took place in
Zdiers, when the strikers entered a
mill and removed the scabs from
the factory. In the collision with
the police three policemen were
wounded and strikers were injured,
hut the mill was forced to close
down.
Demand Exile of Communists.
The bourgeois press has raised an
alarm, stressing the active partici-
patton of the Communists in the
strike organizations and demanding
the arrest and exile of the Com
munist leaders.
The strike, which started on Sat-
urday with the walk-out of 100000
textile workers in LODI, is spread
ing to other textile districts and
other branches of the industry. The
strike was caused by the wretched
condition of the workers, who re-
