Mr.. Ware said he believed Director

to believe so until something specific
has been charged or proven against
him" He added that he would use
his good offices for the retention of
Davis. whose resignation as head of
the city'S police and fire departments
has been demanded in open court on
two occasions by Judge Edwin o. Lewis,

Mr. Ware, who is recuperating in At

Cuppey said he was employed by the

work for Indiana telephone interests.
The agreement was, Cuppey said,
that he would receive $500, of which

Excitement Spreads to
Other Sections

BOMBAY, India, July 6@-Pea-
SAINTS in the Gijerat, the northern
section of the, Bombay presidency,
are harvesting the crops on the
lands declared forfeit for unpaid
taxes in spite of reports that the
government is rushing troop trains
to subdue the district. Information
to this effect reached here last night.
The peasants are reported to have
streamed spontaneously into the
fields for the harvest, and the action
has ben sanctioned by the peasant or
ganization acting in the Gijerat.
The proportions which the peasant
results has assumed in the last few
days is reflected in the number of
villages headmen deposed. Of the
headmen, seventy-nine
have been driven from office by the
peasants. These village officials
have been opposing the revolt of the
peasants and the expulsion of the
tax collectors which pre-
ceded the outbreak.
While no definite information per-
mitted to leak thru by the govern
ment, reports that troop trains are
already en- route from number of
points north and east of Gijerat con-
tinue to arrive here. Estimates of the
number of forces entrained have not
been made, but it is believed that
they are large, as the government
fears dangerous situation.
Widespread excitement still pre-
walls in Bombay City over the news
from the north. Following the huge
demonstration yesterday, in which
thousands of striking textile workers
participated, the enthusiasm over the
outbreak in the northern section of
the presidency is reported to be
spreading to other industrial centers.
Sholapur, the second largest textile
center in India, has been especially
aroused by reports of the revolt in
the north.

the workers can scarcely see each
other. The gas exhaust from motors
under test is often heavy in carbon
monoxide and leads to the same chok-
ing and nauseating effects noticeable
among workers in garages and re-
pair shops.
Can workers speak out against oc-
cupational diseases and detrimental
conditions in open shop auto plants
of Detroit where according to the
Employers Association there is no
labor problem? Perhaps the chief
reason little protest is heard lies in
story told by student who worked
two summers in the River Rouge
plant of the Ford Motor Co. In
talking with a worker one day he
was told that two others employed
on the same kind of work had been
poisoned. The worker himself was
afraid of the same fate.
"Why don't you say something
about it," asked the student. Zone
word of complaint and I'd be fired"
was the reply. This happened at a
time when bosses were telling men
that 100000 men in Detroit want that
job if you don't"

The sessions high light was the
impeachment of Attorney General Ar
thur Reading, found guilty by a
special committee of extortion and
misconduct in office. A brisk, &C.
getting political climber, Reading was
well on his way to the governorship
when it was proved after a sensa-
tional trial that he had used his high
office to collect secretly and by ex-
tortion 100000 from the Decline Club,
q get-rich-quick outfit, and $4,000
or more from an auto finance corpora
ton. Faced by impeachment, Read
ing resigned.
Reading will be remembered by
friends of Sacco and Vanzetti for his
TART in the conspiracy to kill the two
labor men. Half an hour before mid
night of August % defense lawyers
sought Readings help to stay the ex-
acution q few hours to give them
time to reach a federal Judge by air
plane. They claim he promised help.
While they waited at the East Boston
airport for his reply, news came by
telephone that the two men had been
executed.

dicates that the turnout to the picket
lines will be Ia greater than If the
police mobilization had been confined
to the city'ss own resources.
The leaders Of the Textile Mills
Committee reiterated their frequent
statement that on Monday the mill
owners will clearly demonstrate their
utter inability to resume operations
in even one OF the Sc manufacturing
plants.
One of the reasons for this elab-
crate mobilization of strikebreaking
machinery is the knowledge of the
mill owners that they will be I'M
able to open the mills. The whole mill
tary apparatus with full war equip
ment basis is being called in to create
the impression here and outside that
many strikers are ready to return,
but are in need of adequate protee-
ton" Nothing is further from the
truth, the union confidently declares.
The ranks of the $4,000 on strike are
as solid as on the first day of the
strike, when not one worker remained
working in the mills.
Bar0ns Desperate.
Everywhere the belief is expressed
that the mill owners have become
desperate with the sight of the re-
markably solid strike ranks. They
have therefore decided, with the be-
ginning of the thirteenth week of the
strike, to resort to desperate mea-
sures. The military has been mob
ilized for wild attempt to shatter
the strike by an attack launched
against the picket lines, it is seen.
At all the daily strike meetings,
picket demonstrations, picnics and
thru the distribution of leaflets, the
Textile Mills Committee has been
rallying the strikers for Mondays
demonstration.
More than six thousand strikers
came to the July 4th picnic of the
T. M. c. Interspersing the games
and other pastimes speeches were
made by their union leaders and
other labor organizers, calling for
Mondays mobilization. Theresa Val
