When Freight Train
Hits Student Group

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Nov. 12.-
A crowd of Notre Dame students,
waiting on the railroad tracks for
the return of the football team which
had been victorious over the Army
eleven on Saturday, were thrown
into pandemonium last night when a
freight train ran into them, killing
John Gleason, 20, of Canandaigua,
NJ Y, and seriously injuring a
others. More than twenty other
students were hurt slightly.
Four thousand fans had massed
about the railroad station waiting
for the return of the team. Some of
the students had dragged a baggage
truck across one of the tracks. A
half dozen girls climbed on it to
await the train.
Half an hour before the football
special was due, a freight train
struck the baggage truck, throwing
it into the air into a crowd of stu
dents nearby. An ambulance was
called, and the seriously injured
taken to a hospital for treatment.
The others were given first aid and
allowed to go home.

GERMANY FEARS
BARS TO PLAN
Experts Won't
Cut Reparations

BERLIN, Nov. 12.-Germany is
making moves to get cut in repa-
rations out of the coming council of
experts, who have to revise the
Dawes plan to make it appear work
able a while longer.
In all allied capitals the German
embassies are instructed to notify
the allied governments that Ger
many demands that the experts not
be limited by instructions of gov
ernments as the original Dawes
commission was.
The Germans dislike the idea of
the experts being told in advance
that the allies demand enough repa-
rations to pay the allied debts plus
the war damages, since that would
make any great cut in reparations
impossible. AS it is, Germany can
not lose anything and may gain
something by kicking.
An important phase of the Ger
man argument is that if the ex-
perts are limited by instructions,
America will not sit in at the con-
ference of experts, and this will
make it hard to float a big bond
issue for Germany in America on
the basis of the new plan.

MOSCOW, Nov. 12.-The Execu-

of Labor Unions has sent an appeal
to the German workers to keep
steadfast in the face of the attacks
being made upon their wage stand
ards and to realize that the employ

vance to be followed up by attacks
on all of the industrial workers of

The R. I. L. U. appeals particu-
larly to the miners and transport
workers for solidarity with the
locked out metal workers.
The R. I. L. U. states that the

reminded America Of the little

planned that Americans invited by
Poland to study finances and econ

with Blyth, Witter and Company
and J. and w. Seligman and Com
pany for the sale of his last huge
group of oil holdings--the producing
properties in California owned by
the Petroleum Securities Company.
Announcement of the deal was
made by Blyth, Witter & Company
today. The properties involved were
recently valued at 100000. They
lie in seven Southern California
counties, forming an oil field of
more than 10000 acres. According
to the announcement, only a small
part of them is producing 1900
barrels daily.
A Family" Affair.
The Petroleum Securities Com
pany is family organization thru
which Doheny controls the prop
critics. If negotiations now in pro-
gress are consummated, a new COM
pany probably will be formed known
as the Pacific Western Oil Company
1t is understood that jacques Vim
mont, former president of the Cali
fornia Petroleum Company and
director of the Texas Company, will
become chairman of the new COM
pany and that the president will be
William c. McDuffie, former pro-
duction manager of the Royal Dutch
Shell group.
The new company would be at the
start strictly a producing company.
1t is expected to take over a con-
tract by which all it's production up
to 10000 barrels a day will be
bought by Richfisld Oil Company at
current posted market price.
Doheny sold control of his Mexi-
can properties to the Standard Oil
Company of Indiana in 1925, receiv-
ing an estimated $38,000,00O. Last
May he sold control of Pan-Ameri-
can Western to the Richfield Oil

After an exhausting but never

union, who together with the bosses
have been making vain attempts to
destroy the union, the left wing or
ganization feels that the time has

offensive to rebuild the union, or
ganize the trade once more and thus
regain the union conditions lost by
the workers during the Struggle.
The drive to unionize the tucking
and pleating trade is to be carried
on under the leadership of the Ma

is to be made an integral part of
the n. 0. C.'s campaign to reestab-
lish union conditions in the entire

dustry.
Despite all the enemies, this small
but staunch union has been facing,
it has been able to retain control
of large portion of its industry;
nothing the bosses nor the dual
right wing scab union could do
could wipe out the organization the
workers were able to establish after

York was taken Sunday afternoon
at a shop delegates conference of
knit goods workers called together
by the National Textile Workers

analyzing the industry, which he de-
clared to be far larger in New York
than is, generally realized, predicted
a general strike in that trade before
the workers would succeed in firmly
establishing a union of their own.
Intensified activity by the textile
workers organization was planned
at the conference for recruiting the
large masses of New York textile
workers into the union. When the
organization gained in numbers,
Weisbord, asserted, a strike will be
called to improve the terrible work.

wage of $50 weekly and the abolition
of overtime, piece work and night

Cabinet May Be Short

BUCHAREST, Rumania, Nov. IL.
-Rumors were current in Buch-
Arrest today to the effect that if
Manu- had been refused the prem
iership, the peasant party would
have modified it's followers and
taken the government by force. Ac-
cording to these reports Manu- had
been called to form the cabinet in
order to avert the coup d'etat.
There are also reports that the
Manu- cabinet will be short-lived
due to the preparations of the lib
eral party, headed by former prem
Ter Bratiano, the peoples party and
the nationalist party to strongly
contest all seats in the senate and
in the lower house in the elections
scheduled for December IL and Is.
Due to the unlimited amounts
placed at their disposal by the capi-
talist interests, it is expected that
they may have the majority again
in the legislature.
Premier MANU- has begun on his
alleged attempt to clear the country
of fraud and bureaucracy by de-
manding the dismissal of General
Nicoleanu, chief of the Bucharest
police and by the dismissal of 72
projects and many lesser officials
in different parts of the country,
The Regency has refused to sign
the decree of dismissal of the po-
lice chief because of his service to
the former government by sup
pressing peasant party demonstra-
tions.
Should the MANU- ministry sue
ceed in remaining in power no fun
damental change in the policy of
the government is to be expected,
according to preliminary account
of his policy. In foreign policy the
new government will attempt to
open the field even more for foreign
capital and will continue negotia-
tions for the $250,000,000 loan in

ly decided to call national conven-

Brothers and sisters! For two
years devastating war, brought
upon US by the Sigman-Schlesinger
clique, under the leadership of the
reactionary A. F. of L. bureaucracy
and the socialist party, has been
raging in our union. For two years
the clique, thru its united front with
the bosses, has sold out the condi-
tions of the workers, and has
brought back the sweat-shop sys-
TEN, low wages, long hours, abject
slavery for the workers. All our
proposals for submitting the issues
of the struggle to a referendum vote
of the membership, for uniting the
ranks of the workers, and making
an end to the pogrom, were met by
the bureaucracy with new deeds of
terrorism, treachery and provoca-
ton.
Thru our bitter and determined
struggle of the past two years we
have exposed the treachery of the
reactionary bureaucracy, which has
completely lost it's footing and has
been reduced to a mere handful who
have sold themselves to and are at
the complete mercy of the bosses.
Thru our heroic struggle we have
brought about the disintegration of
the International clique las evil
denced by the recent resignation of
Sigman, the first to initiate the ex-
pulsion policy in the American la
Dor smovement), and we are today
in the process of building our new
union as a powerful instrument in
defense of the workers interests, on
a basis where all artificial craft di-
visions and antagonisms, prevalent
in the old unions, will be wiped out,
and the rank and file of our mem
bership will be the sole rulers; a
union free from expulsions and per-
secutions, where all members, re-
gardless of their political views and
win have equal rights
