NEARING TO SPEAK
AT MAY DAY MEET
Many Labor Groups to
Back Garden Rally

Scott Nearing, who recently re-
turned from Soviet Russia and China,
will be one of the speakers at the
huge May Day demonstration at
Madison Square Garden that has been
called by the Workers (Communist)
Farty. The demonstration has been
endorsed by large number of labor
organizations.
Nearing will point out that capi-
talist development and the growth
and spread of imperialism not only
cause steady worsening of the con-
ditions of labor, but create situation
where no hope of the improvement of
the conditions of the working class is
possible as long as the present system
exists.
The condition of the mining in
dustry, causing incredible suffering
to hundreds of thousands Of miners
and their families, American inter-
ference in China and intervention in
Nicaragua, and the gradual domina
tion by Wall Street of the whole of
Latin America will be analysed by
Nearing. The need for international
solidarity of labor, of which the May
First demonstration is a symbol, will
be shown to be the only way out of
this hopeless position of the working
class.
The response from labor organiza-
tions, who have endorsed this united
working class demonstration, is an
indication that thousands of workers
are already planning to attend the
meeting at Madison Square Garden
The readiness of the response shows
that the May First demonstration
comes as the expression Of definite
need on the part of militant New
| York labor.

OIL QUIZ SHOWS

IN BACK GROUND
Struggle Involves Both
of Old Parties

WASHINGTON, April 3.-One rea-
son why the republican party and
several government officials were able
to get so much money out of Harry
F. Sinclair, Edward L. Doheny and
allied oil interests was that the Stan
dard Oil Co. was drawing closer to
an open-and-shut monopoly on gov
ernment oil reserve leases.
The rising group of oil macnates,
represented by Sinclair and Doheny,
were within striking distance of a
place in the sun. They were ready to
pay heavily for Washington influ-
ence that would enable them to chal-
lenge RockefelIer's Standard Oil in

mer secretary of the interior. other

sought to drive between Standard Oil
and the cabinet
The republicans in the senate have
been trying to save the face of the
republican party before it's Mortified
middle class constituents by showing
that traffic in oil leases began on a
large scale with President Wilson's
administration. President Coolidge,
who rode to the White House on the
oil wave with Harding, has been
forced, moreover, to order an inves-
tigation of the leasing of the govern
ment's Salt Creek field, containing
one of the richest oil deposits ever
tapped in the history of oil imperial
ism.
100000 Barrels.
The Midwest Refining Co. has been
taking oil out of the Salt Creek field
at rate of 100000 barrels a year
The Midwest Oil is controlled by
Standard Oil of Indiana.
In this connection it is important
to remember that Col Robert Stewart,
chairman of the board of Indiana
Standard Oil, was cited for contempt
Of the senate for refusing to tell what
he knew about the republican party's
Gil slush fund. John u. Rockefeller
at that time rebuked him mildly for
his silence. But a few days later
Stewart was reelected to the chair
manship of the beard of directors.
Rockefeller's pious remarks about
purging politics and the oil industry
of corruption were brazenly hypo-
critical in view of the records in the
department of the interior. They were
part of the Standards present cam
paign to defeat competition from the
Younger oil interests which for time
appeared menacing.
Robert c. Bell, special counsel to
Attorney Generals Gregory and

long as seven years ago that the Tea

was obtained through Conspiracy,
misrepresentation, fraud and deceit. >

Mine CONFERENCE
SPEEDS PROGRAM
Delegates Meet Late
Into Night
Especial TO The Daily Worker.)

PITTSBURGH, April 3. - Meeting
all through last night, nearly twelve
hundred of the delegates to the ma
tional miners Save-the- Union Confer
ence continued the discussion of plans
to win the strike, to place the union
into the hards of the rank and file
and to effect 100 per cent organiza-
ton of the industry.
Anthracite To Be Called.
A motion for an anthracite strike
to take place Immediately after or
ganizational preparations had been
made was carried almost unan&lous-
ly. The arrangements and final call
were left in the hands of the national
executive committee of the miners, a
body formed of representatives Of
every organized and unorganized Sec
ton in the country.
The call for the anthracite strike
followed closely upon a resolution
adopted earlier in the session calling
out the Kansas, Indiana and south
west territories.
Of no less Importance was the plan
to organize the strike preparations of
the west Pennsylvania coke miners
who are called out for April 16. The
meeting adopted plans to establish
headquarters at Johnstown, Somerset,
Brownsville, and other centers. These
sections will be flooded with circulars
and propaganda of the progressive
movement. Following this, local sub
istrict and district committees will or
ganize subdistrict and subdistrict cons
ventions.
A Greater Union.
The new organization thus formed
will be brought into the United Mine
Workers of America but not before
the Lewis bureaucracy has been elim-
mated from the union.
Six delegates from Colorado arrived
an hour before last nights meeting
was adjourned. The six had battled
wind, rain and snow storms and had
been held up all along the way. In
reporting to the conference they re-
counted the acts of misleadership Of
the Lewis machine henchmen during
the past few years. The treacherous
