During the course of the discussion
on the organization of the morgan

discussion. The recommendation of
the subcommittee was first to strike
Illinois, Indiana and Kansas on April

base for spreading into other I'M

This large delegation from Illinois
made certain that a real fight will
be made as the delegates return; that
the scab mines in Illinois will be

attained.

territories now at work, had it's

for many hours took place. However,
at this point the sound leadership and
the understanding of the delegates
came to the front. Everyone desired
the general strike called. But in the
Anthracite territory, where the Lewis
Cappelini machine still has some
strength; where the Brennan opposi-
ton forces tend to dissipate and
weaken a united action of the rank
and file by playing between the Cap
pelini and Lewis machines; where the
progressive and left-wingers support
ing the program of the Save-the-
Union Committee is not yet suf-
ficiently strong-the delegation came
to the conclusion that to issue a call
now for an anthracite strike would
be premature, unlikely to be widely
successful, and would play into the
h hands of the Lewis Cappelini
oligarchy.
The resentment of the delegates at
the division Lewis had created among
the miners by separate agreement
III CilS was SLTOHR. "A
healthy sentiment for struggle was
present, but the delegates realized
that a strike now would have demon
strated unpreparedness of the prog
ressive forces in that territory and
finally accepted, virtually unani-
mously, the recommendation of the
subcommittee to refer this question
to the national committee to work out
a program for drawing the anthracite
into the strike as soon as possible to
achieve success.

The Save-the- Union conference hao
many important features, but two OF
which are herein dealt with: One, tbs
delegation from the Illinois distrlci
and two. discussion on the Anthracite
situation.
At this conference the delegation
from Illinois, district II, was repre-
scented by close to one hundred dele
gates.
Veteran Leaders.
The delegation was led by the old
leaders among the Illinois miners,
such as, John Watts, Tom Parry,
Freeman Thompson, George Voyzey
and others. They represented
mature, seasoned fighters in the
fighters in the struggle of the United
Mine Workers Union. They had been
leaders in the famous wildcat
strike" throughout Illinois in 1921, a
militant leadership which refused to
acquiesce in the moth-worn con-
sentative traditions of the Earring
ton-Lewis machine; and they brought
out the workers then in that strike,
among other things, in behalf of Tom
Mooney and Warren Billings.
The delegation from Illinois, in
many ways, was the most substantial
delegation at the Save-the- Union
Conference, particularly when it is
considered that they came from the
distances of Southern and Central Il
linois. This delegation gave solidity
and substance to the conference which
was attended by 1925 delegates alto
gether.
The conference was a demonstra-
ton to the Labor movement in gen
eral, as we'll as to the membership
of the United Mine Workers, that the
Save-the- Union movement was not
merely an upstart movement, led by
some irresponsible youngsters, new
leaders, etc."
Rather it showed that the old mill
tant fighters of the type of Thomp-
son, Watts, Perry, Singer, were as
one with the younger elements COM
ing forward in the United Mine Work
ers of the type of Minerich, Hapgood,
as we'll as the older types like Bropny
in other districts, ETC., and were
uniting their energies and forces to
carry out the elementary needs of the
membership in the union.
Needs of Union.
These needs are: To restore the
Union to the rank and file; to remove
the Union control and domination
from the traitors and crooks like
Lewis and Cappelini and place it
into the hands of honest, militant
unionists; to fight for a national
agreement; to develop and spread the
strike into Illinois and unorganized
territories in support of the Pennsyl-
vania and Chic Miners; to organize
the unorganized;-in brief: To save
the union for the rank and file.
The Illinois delegation from the
outset took a prominent and leading
part in the proceedings of the con-
ference. 1t is not a matter of passing
attention, but of quite some signifi-
canoe that the chairman of the CON
ference was John Watts from the
Illinois district. Watts is one Of the
old mine leaders among the progress
sive and militant forces in Illinois
and has record Of struggle of many
years against John L. Lewis and
Harrington.
The Illinois delegation represented
genuine progressives and left -wIngers
and not pseudo-progressiyes of the
type of John Hindmarsh wstb play

Problems of Delegates.

At the same time it must be pointed
out that even this difficult situation
at the conference might have been
avoided by greater Qualification and
preparation of the miners before the
conference in regard to the miners
situation, especially in the anthracite
territory. After all, it is too simple
and easy to excuse these difficulties
because we have been successful in
passing through the crisis. The main
problems yet remain before the
miners.
The delegates must go back to tha
locals and districts and mobilize the
membership to carry out the pro-
gram; to carry out local elections to
GUST the reactionaries and put in mill
tant and progressive forces on the
Save-the- Union program; to prepare
for district conferences for the strug-
gle to kick the Lewis machine out of
the union; and to take over the
Miners Union for the rank and file.
This conference demonstrated thaA
our Party is sinking its roots more
and more among the workers In the
basic industries. With continued mill
tant and organized leadership Of the
progressive and Party forces, our
program and movement will win.
At the recent convention and
plenums of our Party the perspectiva
that the working class in America
would be drawn very shortly into bit-
ter struggles against capitalist OPP
preston and intense exploitatic.J
and governmental persecution waa
drawn and accepted. This perspective
has been fully justified and the suc~
cessful conference of the Save-the-
Union forces of the United Nina
Workers of America, held in Pitts
burgh, April list and I'd, bears witt
ness that these struggles are develop
ing the class consciousness and or
ganization of the workers, under tia
of militant left wing polfSy
which receives its clearest expression
in the policy and program of It'd
Workers (Communist) Party.

Two Features of the Miners Conference

(Which was led by Brophy, Minerich,
Ioohey, Plecathy, Hapgood, etc,
showed the following:
One, that the mass of the delegates
had confidence in the integrity of the
leadership Of the Save-the- Union
forces. Such confidence in the honesty
of leadership is not obtained merely
by words of the leaders, but by
demonstration of their abilities and
activities in the struggle. This had
evidently been shown to the satisfac-
ton of the delegates.
Two, this discussion brought for
ward qualities of leadership both
among the established leaders of the
Save-the- Union forces, as well as
among the new elements.
Three, it demonstrated the ability
of the mass of delegates at the con-
ference to reason and think out the
concrete situation correctly, and not
be swayed merely by their desires
and emotional reactions. 1t proved
conclusively that this Save-the-Uni
delegation was miles ahead, intellect
ually and in leadership, of any pre-
vious gathering of miners hitherto
held.
-Four, this discussion particularly
prepared the delegates to return to
their local unions and districts to go
ahead militantly for carrying out the
program of the conference, and par
ticularly for spreading the miners
strike systematically and persistently
in every field.

Chicago, May R-Evidences of tragedy that descended upon the driver of chariot and the four ani- mals that drew his equipage 5000 years ago were found in Mesopo- tamia by the Field Museum Oxford university joint expedition to that country.
 Henry Field. member of the er- petition, has sent word that an al- most complete four-wheeled chariot and another similar vehicle in more fragmentary state, both some 5000 years old, have been eNcavated on the site of the ancient city of kish
 Around one of the chariots were found the skeletons of man and four animals. The animal skeletons have been identified as those of an early species of horse. The eXcava- tors found evidence which leads them to believe the master and ani- mals were victims of a sacrifice to ancient gods.
 Between two of the animal skele- tons the excayators found a shaft, terminated by a metal boss, and supporting rings through which the reins had passed. Archaeologists re-

 Alfredo made rapid progress. 4 municipal scholarship. obtained through Giosue Carducci, poet-pro lessor of the University of Bologna, enabled him to attend the univer- sity.
 For long years Trombetti had the lot of the Italian teacher in rural high schools. But he continued adding to the private collection of books begun in his barbering days and toiled away night after night until he had mastered some 143 languages.
 Meanwhile he worked on an eX- haustive treatise on the origin of human speech. His comparisons Of the 145 language had convinced him tha. the common origin of the human races was on the Asiatic plateau where the Aryan race first started.
 The Lincei Academy awarded him its grand prize of 10000 lire--then S2,"00. King Victor Emmanuel III invited him to Rome to congratu- late him in a private audience.
 And then Trombetti took up rtruscan. For eighteen years, with some Interruption during the war, he has been steadily at it. Here in Florence, in the heart of the country so full of Etruscan ruins and remnants of the lost races beautiful ceramic art, he will lift another corner of the veil that has hitherto shroudcd the history of that ancient people. who so much influenced the Romans with whom they fought, and by whom they were eventually displaced, dis persed or destroyed.
