monies out of its own treasury and de-
clued the governments offer.

COP. LEADER
TO Lead CRAB
Will First Finish the
Imperialist Job

Charles Evans Hughes is the new
chief counsel of the marlborough
Rapid Transit Co., whose case for
the seven-cent fare is coming up
now before Supreme Court of the
United States.
Hughes will take up his duties in
a few days, as soon as he is thru
carrying thru the policies of U. S.
imperialism in the hand-picked Boil
ivia-Paraguay committee of the Pam
American Conference for Concilia-
ton and Arbitration.
The case took step forward yes
terday with the filing of the transit
commissions brief with the Supreme
Court. Samuel Untermeyer, coun-
sci for the commission, is pushing
the case along now that the elections
are over, and the Tammany machine
is ready to carry out what everybody
understands as its pledge to traction
interests to let them raise the fare.
In the next election the abb of the
Tammany forces will be that they
could not control the Supreme Court
which is republican.

forms the conference" that Argen-
tina, "being profoundly interested,
had offered mediation and that
Paraguay had accepted while Bo
Evia had not.
This gentle reminder" to Wash
ington, where Bolivia wishes to take
all disputes for settlement, accom-
ranies persistent rumor that Ar
gentina, alarmed at developments,
had itself been quietly sending
troops to its frontier near the b.
livian-Paraguayan border lines.
Opposition Stiffens.
Also, reports persist that the "A.
3. c." group, Argentina, Brazil and
Chile, are considering joint action to
return the center of control from
Washington to Latin America. This
with sharpened intervention pros
poets from the League of Nations
have undoubtedly caused the re-
ported subsistence, temporary though
it may be, of Bolivia's "war spirit"
and its unofficial report that Bolivia
having gotten even" by killing
some Paraguayans, is "inclined to
arbitrate."
Bolivia has notified the League of
Nations that hostilities are ordered

Scandal in ROthstein
Will Helps Everybody
Forget Graft Angle

With great enthusiasm the New
York courts are shifting the en-
phasis in the Rothstein case fron,
the facts disclosed recently, which
connect the Rothstein drug ring
with Tammany police and rich So
ciety leaders in this city. At pres
ent the spotlight is all focused on
the testimony in the surrogate's
court, where Irregularities in the
Rothstein will are alleged and
argued about, and everybody is en-
couraged to forget that people who
know all about the Rothstein muir
der and dope ring activities before
that event, are still wandering at
large, a month and half after the
killing.
Miss Elizabeth Love, nurse at
tending the Rothstein deathbed, has
testified that Maurice F. Cantor,
executor of the Rothstein will,
brought in the written document
and guided Rothstein's hand to
make a cross at the bottom, the
gambler being meanwhile only semi
conscious. The will gives large
share of 100000 estate to Can
tor.

MANU- REGIME
WAGES TERROR
AGAINST LABOR
Workers Sentenced to
Jail

BUCHAREST, Rumania, Dec. 1S.
Joseph Baltuch, member of the
Unitary Trade Unions, was SEN
fenced to one year in prison by the
martial court, which Manu- still
keeps despite his prediction prom
Uses. He was charged with "having
the intention of distributing sus-
picious manifestos among the SOL
diers and prisoners Of the fortress
prison of Jilava."
The nature of these manifestos
show that the Manu- regime has in
no way lessened the terror Of the
Bratianu clique, since most of the
confiscated literature is bourgeois
material and can be gotten in public
bookstores.
The Workers and Peasants Bloc
of Rumania, during its election cam
paign, raised the slogans of Away
with the military court" and am
nesty for all political prisoners.
