Vacations IN
Order IN OIL
Investigation

WASHINGTON, April %. - An
p" other principal in the oil slush
fund inquiry is now taking vaca-
ton. He is Harry F. Sinclair, oil
magnate, acquitted by a govern
ment court in the District of Col
umbia Saturday of charge of con-
spiracy in the Teapot Dome lease
case.
Sinclair is celebrating his acquit-
tai with friends on his Rancocos
farm in New Jersey.
Albert B. Fall, former Harding
Coolidge secretary of the interior,
has been on a vacation IN California
ever since the government decided
not to try him with Sinclair.
OTHER oil men, including O'Neill
v and Blackmer, have long been
vacationing in Europe to avoid tes-
tifying before the senate public
lands committee investigating the
Teapot Dome lease.
The senate committee itself was
more or less on vacation today,
in the face of proposals that it in
vestigate the leasing of the Salt
Creek oil reserve in Wyoming to a
Standard Oil Co. subsidiary. The
senators think it might be some
what unhealthy to step on the toes
of Standard Oil. The Standard Oil
Co. was willing enough that the
younger oil group, represented by
Sinclair and Edward L. Doheny, be
investigated, particularly when this
younger group began to grab off
too many valuable CONCESSIONS
through the bribery of cabinet
members threatening it's own
monopoly.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 23.-
Charging that Secretary Of Labor
Davis had "misconstrued" the report
of the commissioner of labor stats
tics, Sen. Robert A. Wagner of New
York, in a speech in the senate, has
declared that the number of unem-
ployed in the United States is nearly
100000.
Sen. Wagner asserted that the UNI
employment figure of 1,874,050 given
by Secretary Davis had been submit
ted by Commissioner of Labor Sta
tistics Stewart merely as the shrink
age in the national industrial payroll
between 1925 and 1928.

Women on Picket Line

Especial to The DaiIy WOrker,)

SPRINGFIELD, H., April 23.-The
call of the Illinois District Save-the-
Union Committee is bringing out ever
larger numbers to the picket lines.
Only a few mines are attempting to
operate in scattered territories in the
state Operation however has already
been badly crippled and those still re-
spending to the mine whistle arrive
under protection of armed sheriffs and
deputies.
The four miners arrested at til
Springfield Old Wes5 mine picket line
Saturday were Immediately released
since no charge could be placed
against them. They were Joseph
Angelo, Secretary Of the District
Save-the- Union Committee, George
Voyzey, Frank Gushes and Roy Jones.
The sheriffs evidently had hoped
thus to disorganize the picket line by
taking the leaders away, but they did
not succeed. The numbers returning
to work are constantly diminishing;
the sheriff's forces are increasing, but
that viii hardly produce any coal.
Many women appeared on the
picket line this morning and showed
real mihtancy. Subsequently they set
to work organizing their win the
Strike Women's Club" elected their
president and secretary and are now
actively working to augment the
picket line. Throughout the state the
women are organizing to help win
the strike.
The Staunton sub-district is de-
veloping the most excellent fight for
the union ever seen in that territory
led by the most active members with
in the Save-the-Union movement, Joe
Polka of Staunton, Boullard and Ron
chetti of Wilsonville, Rose of Bend
and others. Two mines, the Superior
Coal Company mine No. 2 and 3, have
been trying to operate. The picket
line during the last two days has
increased to LOCO and 1900. The coal
company itself admits that the work
ing force is badly crippled and is
daily growing smaller There also,
the sheFiffs forces are increasing.
Everywhere the reactionary union
machine officials are working hand in
glove with the armed forces asking
them to protect those who are now
actually taking position of scabbing
upon their brother workers.
Yet this did not seem to help Joe
Garnella, the president of the Staun-
ton sub-district. Twice he "happened"
to be hit by flying bricks when his
automobile came in the way of the
picket line.
It is interesting to note that in the
past the Illinois Coal Operators asso-
citation always applied a penalty
clause in the case of any member of
the association who broke away to
sign separate agreement. Today
this clause has disappeared. Evidently
the operators see their chance in fol-
lowing this separate agreement policy
Of the Lewis-Fishwick machine as the
best way to carry out their designs
of breaking the union.

his men beat them up. Forty others
were arrested and Is of them SEN

At a farcical trial these miners who
had no defense, all chose the ten days.
Later Attorney Duggan obtained
their release on bail.
Ride Down Miners.
Speakers on their way to mass
meeting scheduled at Herminite, Pa,
Saturday were stopped by constabu-
larry police and ordered to turn their
car back. The meeting was held
nevertheless and in an enthusiastic
spirit. After the meeting, when the
miners were on their way home, po-
lice appeared suddenly and for no
apparent reason slugged the strikers
right and left. There is no report of
the total injured yet.
Joseph Magliacano, an organizer
for the Save-the-U Union forces was ar
rested Tuesday afternoon near Graces
Landing. The organizer was offered
the alternative of promising to avoid
Fayette county or of facing charges
of melting to riot and unlawful as
semblage. When he refused to answer
questions directed at him by the four
state troopers under the command of
Corporal Dodson, Magliacano was
severely beaten.
Order Miners to Dispense.
Magliacano was taken into custody
while he and group of about 20
miners were walking to Masontown.
The miners We're ordered to dispense
and the organizer and John Rosnick
of Point Marion were forced into the
patrol auto of the state police. Ros-
nick, who witnessed the beating adj
ministered to his companion, was re-
leased after the troopers had admon-
ished him to "get the hell home and
stay there" Rosnick was threatened
with immediate arrest if he was found
in Masontown or the vicinity toward
which he was walking when arrested
Magliacano was to appear for pre-
liminary arraignment in Masontown
late this afternoon. He is at liberty
on $1,000 bail. His defense is under
the direction of the international La
Dor Defense.
Magliacano's arrest marked a high
point in a week of prosecutions of
Save-the- Union representatives. The
campaign began with the arrest of
Isaac Hawkins, a Negro, at Cardale,
near Republic last Sunday. A charge
of malicious mischief was lodged
against him after he had been taken
into custody by two deputies whose
tactics of intimidation were directed
at the disruption of mass meeting
at which Hawkins was present. APP
preaching a group in which Hawkins
was standing, the two deputies four
ished blackjacks and commanded,
"Come with us, niger" Hawkins
obeyed and was ordered into an auto,
He was kept incommunicado for five
hours in the Brownsville, Pa. Jail
The charge against him was later dis
missed by Squire Virgil Trotter of
Brownsville.
