Graft Edict

DEITY graft in the New York
police department has just
taken en- slightly different form,
according to hundreds of East side
pushcart peddlers who were yester-
day ordered to reduce the size of
their carts from seven and eight
feet to 81 inches.
At meeting of resentful pedd-
lers it was charged that the order
was made so that officials of the
department of public markets would
have more pushcards on which to
collect tribute. Market officials
accept thousands of dollars yearly
from Illegally licensed East side
pushcart peddlers and auction off
licenses and desirable positions, the
speakers said.
Acting Markets Commissioner
Neal "innocently" denied the exist
ance of graft in his department.

said, because of the new order

Army of Independence
Makes New Gains

MANAGUA, June 11.-Reports of
fresh successes won by troops cooper
er.ying with the Nicaraguan army of
independence, under General Augusta
SANDING, are admitted by the Ameri-
can authorities here. Unfamiliar with
tho country, and hampered by the
rainy season which has virtually ended

United States marines are now totally
unable to make Roadway against the
forces of General SANDING.

Sinclaiy,s "Simgimg Jailbinds" to

An early announcement by the New
Playwrights Theatre lists Upton Sim
clair's Singing Jailbirds" as one of
the early productions for next season.
The play was done in Berlin a short
time ago by the Communist director
Piscator, and received most excellent
reviews.
Of the other productions being con-
sidered by the group are: Anyways,
Inc.," by John Dos Passes; "Picnic,"
by Francis Edwards Paragon; "The
American Beauty" by Paul Sifton,
and Dawn Powell's "Women at Four
O'clock" There may be two or three
other plays which are now being con-
sidered.
"Her Unborn Child" the play by
Howard McKent Barnes and Grace
Hayward, which played at the Eltinge
Theatre some six weeks back, and re-
Gently showing on the Subway cir
cult, reopened last night at the 48th
Street Theatre. Effie Shannon still
heads the cast.
There is asrumor to the effect that
John Erskine's "The Private Life of
Helen of Troy" will be made into
musical comedy. Harry Wagstaff
Goribble will make the adaptation,
and Eugene Berton and Edward
Eliscu will handle the score and lyrics.
James G. Peede's production of
"Gold and Dust" a drama of modern
life by Aura Farrell, opened at Wer-
ba's Brooklyn Theatre last night. The
cast is headed by That's Lawton and
Roger Gray. Broadway may see the
new opus later this season.

BituminOus Coal
Production Lower

WASHINGTON, June IL. - The
output of bituminous coal during the
week ended May 10 was lower than in
either the previous week or the cor
responding period of 1927, according
to statistics of the Department of
Commerce. Lumber production con-
tinued to average lower than in either
the previous week or the same week
of 1927, while carloadings continued
to reflect declines from last year.
Receipts of wheat at primary mar
kets were higher than in either the
previous week or the same week of
last year. Cattle receipts, on the other
hand, showed declines from both pc
RODS, but hog receipts registered in
.creases over both the previous week
and the same of last year.

The two-party system of cap

GUST 'CAPPELINI
GANG AT MEETING
Collect Relief Despite
Machine Opposition
(By Worker Correspondent

veg u " " iCCI W.T. - DpTtttGHt
PITTSTON, Pa. (By maiD At our
meeting on June 9TH, I want to re-
port that we were able to kick out
the whole Cappelini crowd which was
headed by George Moleski, who was
working hand in hand with the con-
tractors, and who has continually
thru actual force had control of our
union and who at times used thugs,
state police and county police to keep
control
1t is very important that this local
union should kick out the whole Cap
.pelini crowd. We elected the follow
ing officers; Tony Mancino, president;
Dan Cavanaugh, vice-president; Sam
Latona, secretary.
1t is of great significance that
Brother Sam Licata and Ray Walasky
were elected on our grievance com
mittee. Not so very long ago when
we were to overthrow our officials,
the contractors beat up Brother
Licata, splitting his head, etc. We
are slowly but surely kicking out the
whole Cappelini machine and l want
to advise the brothers to clean out the
local officials no matter where they
are and only to elect brothers who are
for program and will fight for the
rank and file.
Thomas Kennedy, secretary-treas-
urer of the Mine Workers Union, has
again issued slanderous statement
against the local rank and file leader
ship in the anthracite tri-district, who
are modifying their forces to gather
relief for the bituminous miners.
He condemns the miners for gath
ering relief for the rank and file in
the bituminous coal fields and claims
that no collection can be made unless
they have a credential from him or
from William Green. He points out
that the American Federation of La
Dor has also condemned sending relief
to the rank and file in the soft coal
field.
The statement does not have very
much effect on the anthracite miners
as they are going ahead gathering re-
lief for their soft coal brothers. They
well know his strikebreaking activi-
ties. His district at this time is in
open revolt against him and his
lieutenants, A. Mattey and Yourishin.

Sheriff-Snake.
"They've tried everything they
know to keep me off the picket line"
this miners Joan of Arc confided to
"a representative of the National
Miners Relief Committee last week.
"That snake Frank Muth "a deputy
sheriff), came to my house one night
and said he thought too much of me
to see re get into trouble on the
picket line without warning me. He
said that they would try to take my
kids away, but I told him they'd do
it only over my dead body. They said
that I'd get in trouble and finish in
the electric chair, trying to scare me.
They think I'm green. I told them,
good, that's what want, to die for
the workers here, if 1 have to. They
didn't like that"
Two nights after Muth's warning"
the widow was arrested on a charge
of disorderly conduct. She was later
discharged. Mrs. Calegari's house
was raided a month ago by six state
policemen. The excuse was search
for liquor.

CANNERY SERFS
S12 Per Week is Usual
Pay At Can Belts
by a Worker Correspondent

by a Worker Correspondent
OAKLAND, Calf, (By MaiD.-I
wish to give other workers a few
glimpses into the lives of us workers
who slave eI cry year in the Gamer
les of California.
Long Hours, Small Pay.
California to US means the same
long hours and the same small pay
as any other state regardless of all
the advertisements to the contrary
about our gold and sunshine.
There is some sunshine here, but
we only see the fruit which it bIesses,
except when we are out of job, when
we get plenty of sunshine but do not
enjoy it.
One of the basic industries here is
agriculture, and many men and women
are engaged in the canneries during
the summer months preparing fruit
and vegetables to be shipped out all
over the world.
The conditions of these workers are
the worst in the land. At present as
paragus is being prepared and canned
on a piece work basis. We have a
minimum wage here, but those who
cannot make it on piece work don't
last long. Only the fastest are kept
The hours are from eight to twelve
day. mostly over eight hours with
regular pay for overtime. We only
make from $12 to SIS per week. The
work is very hard and must be graded
in about seven different varieties, with
foreladies constantly at our elbows.
Speed Up.
Fruit salad is also being made at
this time and, altho this is not piece
work, everything is speeded-up as
fast as possible with S18 week pay.
Tin cans run on belts from six to
eight inches apart and girls put in
certain number of pieces of fruit.
Girls next to the belts cut and grade
the fruit. From the cutting tables to
the belts, girls carry pansful of fruit,
sometimes two pansful in each hand
These girls are constantly on the run
as they have to keep the girls sup
piled. The girls ON the belts cannot
even look around from their places
without missing can.
Nearly all of these workers have
just barely existed during the winter
and are depending on this work to
catch up~with payments.
There is no limit to the hours of
the working day.
There, are nurseries so that there
will be an abundance of young women
to be. had easily. We are required to
buy a Uniform apron, a rubber apron
and cap from the company and what
ever working implements we need,
such as knives, peelers, corers, pitters
and also numbered button, so that
one slave can be distinguished from
another These things, of course, are
paid for from our first pay no matter
how badly we may need it.
The California state law also says
that every woman shall sit whenever
possible. The place where work has
an adjustable seat in each place that
swings under the table. But no one
is allowed to sit on these during work.
ing hours. This proves that the law
is no good without the organized
power of those whom they were made
to protect behind them.
