ing this incident he heard the muffled
report of a gun. Then he fled from
the room, he said.
An equal anxiety to deliver
damaging testimony to the three
miners was evident in the testimony
of the next witness, Anthony Figlock,
national organizer for the Lewis
machine. Under cross examination
Figlock was forced to admit that his
new evidence contradicted that given
by him in the preliminary hearing.
John Gallagher, the next witness,
travelling auditor for the Interna-
ticnal, contradicted the testimony of
both Lippi and Figlock. "Three shots
were fired before Lippi left the
ROOM" he said. Figlock according to
Gallagher, had remained in the prox-
unity of Agati at least four minu es
while he was phoning. This testimony
may turn out to be important as a
clue to the disappearance of Agati's
gun.
Friends of Agati, present at the
trial, feel that the testimony given
yesterday has greatly injured he case
of the prosecution. The case of the
three miners has been strengthened
by the testimony of yesterdays wit
nesses.

Chicago Worker Challenges Country IN Sub Dy1u
WARNS OWNERS,
UNION OFFICIALS,

Ohio Rank and File for
Progressives

SPRINGFIELD, April 10.-En-
dorsement of the Pennsylvania Ohio
Relief Committee and a warning to
all enemies of the mine workers to
keep hands off the miners relief COM
mittee was made this week by local
Union $3.50 of the United Mine Work
ers of America.
Pointing out that more than 40 10
Gals in Ohio, representing thousands
OF miners are now receiving help
from the committee, the resolution
demands support for the committee
and suggests that the officials of the
union take cut in their large salaries
during the period of great need
among the rank and file.
The resolution follows:
Unwarranted Attacks.
Whereas, the u. S. Senate Com
mittee has condemned the Pennsyl-
vania-Ohio Miners Relief Committee
and has spoken of it as a "slimy
trial.; and,
Whereas, officers of the United
Mine Workers of America have not
hesitated to attack the Pennsylvania
Ohio Miners Relief Committee and
have warned" the striking miners
against it; and,
Whereas, the Pennsylvania Ohio
Miners Relief Committee has pro-
vided more than 40 locals in Ohio,
representing thousands of miners,
with relief, and,
Whereas, during this time the Off
GERS of the United Mine Workers have
received tn cir regular salaries,
amounting to hundreds of thousands
of dollars-which money should have
been used for miners relief, therefore
be it,
Condemns Attacks.
Resolved, that Local Union $500, of
the United Mine Workers of America
subdistrict of District No. 6 con-
dennis the attacks of the U. S. Senate
Committee and of the officers of the
United Mine Workers of America and
again calls upon the rank and file to
cut off the salaries of the officers so
that more money may be had for re-
lief, and be it further
Resolved, that we hereby serve no
tice on the coal operators, the U. S.
Senate Committee and the union Off
Gals to keep hands off the Pennsyl-
vania-Ohio Miners Relief Committee,
since We will not tolerate their at
tacks and interference without pro-
testing.

WASHINGTON, April 10. - The
question of summoning Thomas w.
Miller, former alien property Gus
todan, now under sentence for con-
spring to defraud the government, as
witness in the senate oil inquiry is
under consideration today by the Sen
ate Public Lands Committee.
Miller will be questioned, when he
does take the stand, about the CONT
mental Trading Company's $1,000 900
Liberty bond "slush fund" and the
portion of it which Sinclair used to
liquidate debts of the Republican Ma
tional Committee in 1923. Reports
have reached the senate that Miller
handled some of these bonds for the
Republican National Committee.
Rumors meanwhile have persisted
here that if Miller ever became con-
WINGED that the republican party
would not save him from going to
jail, he would tell the senate commit
tee the inside story" of Sinclair's re-
lations with the Republican party. The
action of the supreme court yesterday
IN denying Miller's appeal, practi-
cally closed the last Ioophole through
which he could escape serving his SEN
tence of Is months in Jail, along with
$4,000 fine.

The generous plan by which one

poses to increase the circulation of
The DAILY WORKER in his terri
tory has been forwarded to the office
of the paper by S. Hammersmark,
the DAILY WORKER agent in the
Illinois section.
A ten dollar bill and an order for
one thousand copies of the May Day
edition of The DAILY WORKER was
recently received from a worker
named Holman. Accompanying this
order was Holman's offer to pay for
another thousand copies as soon as
other workers, organizations or units
smaller than a city, send in their
orders for a thousand copies.
Holman has sent in ten dollars
with challenge to the workers of
the entire country. When 100 other
friends Of The DAILY WORKER send
in ten dollar bill for ten two month
to the paper, Holman
will send another ten dollars for ten
more subs for the striking miners.
Holman's offer must be met with
an enthusiastic response from the
American working class. Not only
hundreds but thousands of two
months subscriptions must be pur-
chased by the American workers.

Tasks Defined.
Other units have already begun
work collecting among the member
ship and among friends and sympa-
thizers. At a joint meeting of sub
sections "a and 2B at 101 w. 9th
st. Monday night, Bert Miller, organ
ization secretary of District and a
member of the board of directors Of
the Workers Center, discussed the
significance of the new Center and
outlined the tasks of all Parry mem
bers in the present drive. The mem
bership of these two subsections is
drawn chiefly from the needle trades
and Miller pointed out that the
proximity of the new building to the
needle trades district would make it
the real center Of revolutionary ac-
tivity in those trades.
Fund Needed at Once.
The securing of the $4,000 for the
new building has become the chief
Party task for District 2, according
to Party officers. The entire Party
membership has been modified in
this drive, as the money must be
raised within less than three weeks.
Lists and receipt books are being
furnished to all units. Every section,
subsection and unit is electing a
special committee to take active
charge of The drive. Contributions are
to be sought not only among Party
members, but among sympathizerz
and friends, particularly in shops and
workers organizations, such as unions
and clubs.
