STEUBENVILLE, o., March 22.
Unable to break up the rising
force of the mine picket lines,
sheriff William T. Allison Of Jeffer-
son county today wired Governor
DOnahey for the Ohio National
Guard.
Mass picketing of between 400
and 1000 striking miners, their
wives and children has taken place
daily before the Dillyon No. / mine
of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Rail-
road at Dillon Vale near here.
Sheriff Allison complained that
he has been unable to handle the
situation which he described as

general strike call for the whole of
District IL, is the response of the Illi-
nois miners to the last act of treach-
cry by the Lewis-Fishwick machine.
Paving the way for his plan to defeat
the Pennsylvania-Ohio miners strike
through further act of betrayal in
the Illinois fields, John L. Lewis,
president Of the United Mine Work
ers, has invited the Illinois coal COM
panies to continue their operations
without an agreement after April 1.
The strike call for the whole district

The present temporary agreement
covering District 12 was made by the
Lewis-Fishwick machine in the midst
of the Pennsylvania Ohio strike. Char
acterized at the time as a complete
betrayal of the miners in the other
sections, events have amply proven
that the Illinois miners were likewise
sold out in the move.
The Illinois miners have had their
wages depressed through a form Of
adjustment" which Lewis made pro-
vision for under the agreement, the
speed-up system has been introduced
and the wage scale flagrantly vio-
lated.
In statement by the District IL
Save-the- Union Committee, Joseph
Angelo, secretary, the new move by
Lewis is denounced as "a further step
in the long march of the Lewis be-
trayals.

SEEK PASSAGE OF
JOBLESS AID BILL
Unemployed Counci IL
Pushes Drive

Plans for the presentation of a bill
for the relief of the unemployed
workers were outlined last night at
the executive meeting of the New
York Council for the Unemployed at
so st. Marks Place. The bill will be
presented to the city, state and fed
cral governments with a demand for
immediate consideration which will be
backed by thousands of unemployed
workers affiliated with the Council.
New York hospitals reported public
wards filled to overflowing and un-
employed sick refused treatment
through lack of facilities. But Mel
son Cook 6 Co., bankers, took a
brighter view of unemployment.
Labor will be restored to sanity" its
research department reported
"The situation is likely to grow
worse before it gets better" the bank
continued. s'The one bright spot is
the likelihood that continued unem-
ployment will impel many workers to
return to the farms, where they are

Public utilities, shivering under
public attack, have grabbed for a
favorable limelight by describing de-
.1elopment projects in the eight fig
ures. In Philadelphia, where 60,O00-
100000 are jobless, the utilities have
spreadeagled over 100000 build

The International Labor Defense,
which is conducting the defense of
Hugo Gellert, Emery Balint, Paul

rested in Washington last Monday
when picketing the White House,
issued the following statement last
night through Rose Baron, secretary
of the New York local:
"The Wall Street government,
which has entered into united front
with the black Horthy -Bethlen re-
gime, is determined to crush all pro-
test against the murder and torture
of thousands O; Hungarian workers
and peasants. Whether the repre-
sentatives of Wall Street happen to
operate in Ne,r York or in Washing

suit is the same; pickets are beaten
and arrested and the Hungarian dele
gahtion is received with open arms.
"The International Labor Defense,
which has organized protests in the
past against one of the most bar
barous despotisms in Europe, intends
to continue to raise it's voice against
the bloody Horthy- Bethlen rule. Ar

TRANSIT STEAL
is POSTPONED
Politicians Wait for a
Better Time

ALBANY. March %. - New York
City's unification transit bills as pro-
posed by the transit commission and
Samuel Untermyer, went down to de-
feat in the assembly yesterday after
noon by vote of 85 to 81.
Assemblyman Bloch, democratic
floor leader, moved to have the tran
sit bills reported by the rules COM
mittee only to have the republican as
semblymen to vote solidly against
them.
Another transit bill, which would
have given New York City the right
to own and operate bus lines, was de-
feated by the same vote.
Not Yet Time.
The time is not yet ripe, it was
stated yesterday in certain informed
quarters, when the transit "unifica-
tion" scheme can meet with the ap-
proval of all parties.
At the present moment, the Tam
many administration is holding up
the plan for political reasons. The
approach of election with the con-
sequent need of maintaining the
guise of "friend of the people" has
forced Tammany Hall to hold back on
certain essential demands Of the trac-
ticn companies whom Tammany Hall
ordinarily serves willingly.
These companies, it is understood,
gave the order to the republican
legislature to defeat the bills.

the bituminous miners Save-the-
Union committee forces who were
arrested recently at meeting at
Renton, have waived preliminary
hearing at Pittsburgh and will face
trial this spring on charges of incit-

will defend them.
Plans for action against the state
police who made the arrests and
slugged Toohey are being considered
by the defense, according to Mr.
Hays. Charges Of melting to riot
may also be sought against the police
who broke up the meeting in a union
hall after it had proceeded quietly for
more than an hour. A state trooper
assaulted Toohey on the platform at
the meeting when the latter criticized
the policy of the United States in
Nicaragua. The breaking up of the
