CARTER CALLS
HAND OF DRY
LEAGUE BOSS
Demands Reasons for 0. K.
Given Robinson in List
Issued by Shumaker.

The Lion" of Indiana dry forces
was bearded in his den," Thurs
day, when Solon J. Carter, candidate
for the Republican nomination for
United States Senator, demanded,
face to face, of E. S. Shumaker,
Indiana Anti-Saloon League super
intendent, an explanation of Shu-
makers Endorsement Of Senator
Arthur r. Robinson, seeking re-
nomination.
Carter's visit to the Anti-Saloon
League chief was revealed when the
candidate broadcast campaign
speech from WLW, Cincinnati,
Thursday night.
Carter, accompanied by former
Attorney General James Bingham,
friend of both Carter and Shu-
maker, went to league headquarters
in the Roosevelt Bldg. There he
took Shumaker to task for not hav-
ing published, in his appraisal OF
candidates, the fact that Senator
RobinSon's law firm was active IN
defense Of bootleggers.
"After insistently pressing Shu-
maker for more than an hour for
his answer" said Carter, "and for
his explanation, which might make
to the people of Indiana tonight, he
seated that Arthur Robinson was
I his personal friend, that his record
in the State Senate and in Congress
was dry; that his law firm, he un-
derstood, was engaged in the prac-
tice of criminal Ia ", including the
defense of bootlegge-s, and he
wished it was not so.
This was the sum total of his
explanation"
In describing his visit to Shu-
maker, Carter said:
'I informed DR.. Shumaker that I
was going to make Chls radio talk
tonight from Cincinnati.
II told him I wanted to be able
to give the Soters of Indiana, par
ticularly those who compose the
dry forces and who read the Amer
ican Issue, the official publication
of the Anti-Saloon League, his ex-
planation as to why he did not pub
lish the fact that the law firm of
which Senator Robinson is a senior
member, principally is engaged in
te defense of bootleggers and dry
law yiolatorS.
Represents Law ViOlatOrS
'I pointed out that his firm rep
resented more than 27 per cent Of
all liquor law violations appealed
from Marion County courts and that
more than 62-3 per cent of the
business of Senator RobinSon's law
firm in the Indiana Supreme Court
is that of defending liquor law vio-
lations on appeal.
after DR.. Shumaker, through
the American Issue, had classified
Senator Robinson as dry of record,
again called attention of the pub
lie to these facts in an open letter
to Senator Robinson.
"This afternoon, in my confer
ence with DR.. Shumaker. I asked
him to give me an explanation as
to why these facts had not been
printed in the American Issue.
"In this connection I pointed out
to him that he had been unstinted
in the publication Of alleged state
ments of other candidates that
might be indorsed as reflection
upon their attitude toward this
question"

VOTE BOOMS
STOCKS ON EXCHANGE

Welcoming the election of Hoover
as an insurance Of profits expected
from imperialist investments and
loans throughout the world, the
stock exchange yesterday went wild
on bullish market, taxing it's ma
chinery to such an extent that the
ticker was behind the buying 45
minutes at times. In one of the
heaviest buying rushes of history
100000 shares changed hands in
the first hour.
Meanwhile, before Judge Mean
drews in the West Side Court, stood
Oscar Parlie, an une m p o y d
draughtsman from California. He
stood, but wavered somewhat, be-
cause he was penniless and weak
from lack of food. He was charged
with snatching a woman's purse. He
was only one of the 100000 unem-
ployed of the United States who
have not shared in the upward
swing of imperialist prosperity.
Capitaiism's Solution.
While the stock exchange was a
scene of wild joy at Hoover's cleo
ton, Parlie stood there, representa-
tive of a social problem for which
capitalism has no answer. Or per-
haps Judge McAndrews thought he
answered this problem when he SEN
fenced Parlie to Jail, remarking that
this was "as much a kindness as a
punishment"
The bullish movement in stocks
was aided by the loosening of the
money market, call loans being cut
to per cent.
The buying movement centered
precisely around those industrial is
sues with which the interests Of i'm
perialist ventures are most closely
bound up. Oil stock, copper stocks
were at the head of the list. Chile
Copper, Pan-American Oil, American
and Foreign Power, American Smell
ters, Atlantic Refining and Standard
Oil, were the most active of all.
Sharing the boom, though not SO
much in demand, were the issues of
motor, steel and public utilities. Os-
car Parlie will read about all this
prosperity while he sits behind bars
at what is called by some ironic twist
of logic, welfare Island"

after the elections were over, police

Diary, picketing striker, even be-
fore the election returns were fully
known.
AS is the custom of the bosses
police agents in labor struggles in
periods immediately preceding cleo
tions, sharp action against strike
activities was somewhat slackened
because the bosses do not want the
workers to express their resentment
at the polls. This contention was
borne out in the arrest this morn
ing.
Koodary was arrested because he
refused to stand idly by while one
of the scabs was approaching to
assault a woman picket. The scab
had already pushed Becky Salzberg
in the face when Koodary inter-
fered and defended the woman
striker from the scab's attack. He

now out on $100 bail, facing charges
of assault and battery. He is to
come up for trial in a few days.

that sthis strike needs some pep put

grets that opportunities were not
made by the union to weld into
greater solidarity all the sections of
workers in the industry, referring
to the fact that steps toward max
ing the strike more general were
prevented by the union officialdom.
In speaking Of the elections
which had yesterday sent to the
presidency Herbert Hoover, whose
platform was to continue pros

ing silk workers ironically whether
they weren't jubilant over the con-
tinuation of prosperity" She then

Red Square, before the Kremlin and

ing answer to imperialist plots
against the First Workers and

Participating in the parade, in ad-

by the working masses, were all

Uglyanov, a metal worker, opened

Policy of the Central
Committee Approved;

Errors; Reinstated
Will Aid Soviet Union

BUENOS AIRES, Nov. THE
Eighth Congress of the Argentine
Communist Party opened here with
the reading of the declaration sub
r1itted by the party fraction of Jose
Penelon, desiring to be reinstated in
the Communist International and
acknowledging past errors.
The policy of the Central Com
nittee in its fight against Penelon-
ist opportunism was approved. The
various problems, the national stu
alton, the war danger, the workers
and peasants question, the organ
ization of the working class youth
and working women were discussed.
Imperialist Restrictions.
1t was indicated that imperialist
pressure makes impossible the nor
NAL development of the country by
establishing restrictions on Argen-
tine products in the British and
United States markets, and that the
national 'bourgeoisie will endeavor
TO solve its difficulties by attacking
the interests of the workers and
peasants of Argentina.
In the struggle against imperial
ist war and for the defense of the
Soviet Union, the slogan, "Not a
pound of meat, not a bushel of
wheat" for the anti-Soviet armies,
was approved. 1t was resolved to
give every effort to strengthening
the anti-imperialist league and the
organization of Friends of Soviet
Russia"
The representative of the Com
munist International spoke upon the
party's internal crisis, condemning
the opportunism and splitting policy
Of the partisans of Penelon, point
ing out the necessity. of "argentin-
izing" the Party, and giving greater
attention to the interior of the coun-
try.
The basic slogans of the congress
are the fight against imperialism,
greater work among the masses of
workers and peasants, the work of
trade union reorganization and
unity.
1t was resolved to issue call to
those workers continuing in the
Penelonist fraction and to reinstate
in the Party the elements who have
repudiated the Penelon position. A
broad Central Committee was
elected with representation from the
interior Large delegations from
the interior, including both workers
and peasants, attended the congress.
