PREACHERS HELP
TEXTILE BARONS
\ IN NEW BEDFORD
Senator Butler Buys Up
Sky-Pilots

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. (FP)
July 4.-Former Senator William M
Butler, through private detectives
has ordered New Bedford preachers
to tell workers to return to the cot
ton mills under 10 per cent wage
reduction Indirectly he has prom
ised to "take care of" them if they
will help break the strike from their
pulpits.
At least a dozen ministers have
confirmed the story of the Rev. Lin
den H. White, pastor of ST. Martins
Episcopal Church, who revealed &C
tivities of the Butler-bossed private
detectives. j. Aspin Reed, head of
Boston detective agency, called on
xWhite and urged him to help call off
q Ihe strike. He was to call on manu-
lecturers to open their mill gates to
hungry workers, although they had
ALREADY published their intention of
opening July 8.
Bride Preachers
"Will the manufacturers take
down the wage cut notices." asked
Linden.
NO" was the detectives immedi-
ate reply Turned down, Reed came
back the second time. The minister
stuck to his guns, and then Reed re-
marked pointedly and cody:
"Do you mind, Mr.. White, if / take
your answer back to Senator But
Ter? You know he is interested in
the mills here"
Reed also offered to 'take care of"
the pastor. To some he offered auto
mobiles. Bribery unavailing, Reed
threatened White that he would call
up the mill treasurers and notify
them of the preachers refusal to
serve them.
N Linden's public statement followed
"a plea from Father Noon, Catholic
clergyman, imploring the mill work
Aers to stick it out He asked the
bosses to rescind the cut, asserting
that even the previous wages had
been far too low.
Uses Private Dicks
DQtlSI, lOIIIIGI VI IllS
National Republican Party, former
U. S. Senator from Massachusetts
and confidante of President Coolidge
is firm believer in the efficacy Of
private detectives in breaking up
strikes and smashing unions. Be-
tween 1918 and 1922 he paid S250,000
to the Sherman Service to disrupt the
union, corrupt leaders and tear down
resistance to wage cuts.
The attitude of the New Bedford
Council of Churches in urging arbi-
tration of the dispute has been Off
cially commended by the State
Church Federation. The Federal
Council of Churches is understood to
be deeply interested in the New Bed
ford struggle and is making pre-
liminary study of the struggle to de-
termine whether it should conduct 3
formal survey.

FLOODS DESTROY
CROPS OF Mine
STRIKERS IN Ohio
Situation Becomes Des-
perate

Especial To The DAILY WORKER.)
RENDVILLE, Ohio, July 4.-The
striking miners of Hooking Valley are
standing by helplessly, watching the
flood destroy their summer food sup
ply. Thousands Of coal diggers have
worked on little garden patches for
weeks, looking forward to the vege-
tables to supplement their one-meal-a-
day fare, only to see it all carried
away by the high waters.
Picket lines are active on every
road leading to the mines. The at
tempts Of the Ohio Galleries Coal Co.
and the Sunday Creek Coal Co. to
operate to their mines open-shop are
meeting with complete failure. No
matter how hungry they are, the coal
diggers are on the line morning and
evening.
Now that the gardens are gone, APP
peals more poignant than ever before
have come TO the National Miners Re-
lief Committee, urging that their To-
Gals be included in the relief lists.
Conditions in this part of Ohio are
probably more desperate than in any
other section of the strike area. The
National Miners Relief Committee is
appealing for more funds, so that it
can expand its activities to take in
these camps. All fund.- sent to Gil
Penn Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa, are i'm
mediately converted into food and send
into the strike camps.

U, S. Investments First.
In total foreign investments the
United States is still second to Great
britain, if British investments in the
dominions are included. But Ameri-
can foreign investments are increas-
ing more rapidly and in economic
power there is no comparison. The
annual income of the United States
at 100000, 100000 is nearly equal to
the entire national wealth of
Great Britain which is estimated
at s100,00O,000,O00. American wealth
estimated as higha as $3.50, 900, 100000.
In productive power the United States
stands preeminent.
U. S. Dollar Controls World.
The dollar has stabilized capitalism
in Europe, blocking the spread of
bankruptcy and social revolution. 1t
is recognized even by British bankers
as the world standard of value. AM
erican bankers, bulwarked by the fed
eral reserve system, are capitalizing
the situation. Under their direction
American dollars are boldly storming
the economic defenses of other nations
or filtcring in as the situation re-
quires. And behind the dollars are
the American marines and the enor-
nous potential war strength of the
American people.
All this is summed up in the cele-
bration of 18th of July 1928. 1t marks
the development Of empire worship.

BOSS DISCOMFITS
HILL MAN MACHINE:
Says $4,000 Garments a
Week for Scab Shops

Despite all the ballyhooing of the
Jewish Daily Forward. who together
with Sidney Hillman of the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers Union are
trying their utmost to convince the
world that workers in the trade are
prospecting under the Hillman regime
several uncomfortable facts come to
light to expose the chaos in the trade
First it was the graft scandals that
were exposed, and now the almost
complete disorganization of the indus
try becomes known through the ad-
mission of the bosses.
AS many as $4,000 garments per
week are being sent to non-union
contracting shops from New York
manufacturers, is the announcement
made by the manager of the Chill
dren's Clothing Contractors Asso-
citation.
Not only can this traffic be stopped
the workers bitterly complain but
even if it couldn't, the officialdom
should launch organization drives to
unionize the out of town open shops
To prove that it can be stopped, it is
then pointed out, all it is necessary
to know is that the material shipped
out is all cut goods, and strict and
honest control of the cutting end of
the work would prevent this work
from going to scab shops. 1t will be
remembered, however, that the re-
cent graft exposures showed the
union officialdom as aiding and help
ing to ship these orders out Of town
for a cash consideration.

| CASPER, Wyo., June 12-Dis tinction unusual in the petroleum world is held by the Salt Creek oil field, subject of investigation ordered by the United States sen ate.
 Its record as a revenue produce CT in public land ledgers includes earnings of approximately $45,- 000,000 in royalties to the govern ment, in addition to millions which the state of Wyoming haa received from a mile-square school lease.
 Proximity to Teapot Dome which joins it on the south, has brought Salt Creek into the spot light of senatorial inquiry. Drain. age from the Teapot area into Salt Creek through contiguous sands has been claimed and re- futed by geologists of conflicting opinion.
 The latest official statement on the subject came from the naval petroleum reserves inspector He says the southern end of Salt Creek actually extends into the reserve, although the two are sep arated by a structural saddle" !" He denies analine dye tests had proved the drainage theory, as others had reported.
 When Teapot lands were with drawn from entry and establish ed as a reserve, government geol- ogists believed they had preserv- ed the cream of production in the Salt Creek district for future ma val purposes. That suppositlon generally was accepted by reason of perfect structural indications until Teapot was leased to the Sinclair interests and drilling was started.
 Salt Creek by that time had been established as one of the worlds greatest light oil fields Development revealed that Teapot

TULIPS

We have just sent an order to the wholesale growers in Holland for our annual supply of tulips, hyacinths and crocus. Darwin tulips are now in bloom and we invite you to inspect those grow ing at the greenhouse or see the cut tulips at our store. We vii! be able to furnish most varieties of Darwin tulips next fall at 55 cents per 12 or $4.0O per 100, 25 at 100 rates. Some Darwins and most of the early tulips will be 75 cents per 12 and $500 and up per 100. These prices are de- livered here in Juneau. The rea- son we can make these low prices is that the bulbs come to Mon treal by steamer, then across the continent in. carload lot, thence by steamer to Juneau so that it costs us less to get them from Holland than the express or post age from the East would be. Our bulbs have been producing near ly 100% rof fine bloom. Any one wanting a large quantity or cottage or breeder tulips please let us know before July 1. The firm we have been dealing with offers more than 300 varieties of tulips.

 Discovery of the Salt Greek field is credited by Cy ba, who drove his first location stake in 1ss3 Production began on a small scale in 1889, when crude oil was hauled in wagons to Gas per for refining. Since then the field has produced in excess of 03.000,000 barrels of crude, has supplied big plants of the Mid west Refining Company and the Standard Oil Company of Indiana at Casper, and more than 2,150 wells have been completed. The peak of production was reached in 1923 when the aggregate out put was 35,300,0G0 barrels. Last year 14,352,000 barrels were pro- duced.
 More than 1,600 acres are in- cluded in the field, which is 45 miles north of Casper. Original estimates placed the possible re- eovery of oil from the field a 500 100000 barrels. but that has been revised downward from yea to year. bolstered at times Ey new discoveries.
