SINCLAIR FUNDS
FOR COMMITTEE
Coolidge Drawn Deeper
in 1920 Debauch

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13-The
senate public lands committee will
subpoena officials of the Democratic
National Committee in an effort te
determine if any of Harry F. Sin,
clair's Teapot Dome slush fund helped
pay off that party's 1920 deficit, Sen
ator Gerald P. Nye Of North Dakota
it's chairman, announced tonight.
In addition to the $4,000 in Liber-
ty Bonds he gave the G. O. P. fifteen
months after the Teapot Dome lease
was signed, Sinclair also made a SUBJ
stantial contribution to the democratic
war chest, according to the oil mil
lionaire's sworn testimony before the
committee.
Will Request Records.
When shown Sinclair's testimony
relating to the democratic gift, SEN
ator Nye said:
Naturally we are concerned to
know if any of the Continental Trad
ing Company bonds are included in
Sinclair's contribution. You can say
positively that we will call officials
of the National democratic committee
to produce their records before the
committee for that purpose"
While John D. Rockefeller, Jr, was
celebrating Lincoln's birthday with a
pious Baptist talk from station WIZ,
condemning business dishonesty in
general but failing to refer to the oil
scandals, announcement was made in

Hays Key Man.
Will H. Hays, who was chairman of
the Republican National Committee
during the 1920 campaign which re-
suited in landslide for Coolidge and
Harding, is considered the key man
in the case, and the failure to call him
is seen as move to keep back most
of the important facts. 1t was Hays
who received the $4,000 from Harry
F. Sinclair, including the "a Liberty
Bonds which have already been traced
to the slush fund of the continental
steal. 1t was also Hays who turned

local unions are prepared to lay be-
fore it mass Of evidence showing the
brutal methods by which war has been

Documentary evidence is not lack

periences with the coal and iron
police, the state constabulary and the
offscourings of the underworld of Q
score of cities with which the coal
barons have flooded this territory
since the strike.
To Let Them Picket.
1t is planned to take the senate in
vestigators through the barracks
built by the union and let them see
for themselves the manner in which
the evictions have forced the miners
to live. The sincerity of the investi-
gators will be tested by offers to taks
them out on the picket lines dressed
in miners clothes and afford them
the opportunity of seeing the state
cossacks and the coal and iron police
inaction.
Barracks and Camps.
The investigators will be asked to
live in the barracks of the strikers
for "a hours, to eat the same food and
suffer the same hardships that the
miners and their families are UNDER
going.
The senate committee will be taken
for a tour of the coal camps so that
they can witness the effects of the re-
vival of the yellow dog" contract and
the establishment of Company

most part have been brought in as
strikebreakers by misrepresentation
and trickery.

Argentine Delegation
Fights Hughes

HAVANA, Feb. 13.-In spite of
the opposition of DR.. Honorio Pueyr-
redon, head of the Argentine delega-
ton, the Pan-American conference
adopted a resolution regarding the
organization of the Pan-American
Union without including any state
ment against economic barriers. "
Before the adoption of the resolution
the Argentine delegate made it cleal
that he would sign no declaration
that did not contain specific stale-
ment against high tariffs.
Today's session was also marked
by the attempt of the Mexican dele
CATION to remove the secretary of
state as chairman of the governing
board of the Pan-American Union.
Mexico, however, abandoned its pro-
posal after an emphatic" speech by
Charles Evans Hughes, head of the
U. S. delegation.
The First Commission in charge
of the work adjourned until Wednes-
day in the hope Of devising means
for sending its project direct to the
offices of the twenty-one nations
represented at the conference.

BERLIN, Feb. 13.--More than 800,
900 German metal workers will be
locked out on February 22, according
to an announcement made by the As
sociation of the Metallurgic Industry

The announcement of the associa-

the employers in the struggle of the
German metal unions for an eight

willingness of the conservative lead
ers Of the trade unions to accept a
longer working day, the rank and file
of the unions is determine to return

militant American labor movement.
Every day throws fresh light on the
activities of these agencies and their
plot to crush The DAILY WORKER
and suppress the militant American
workers.
The arrest of VIM. F. Dunno, Bert
Miller and Alex Bittelman was only
the first step in the slow process by
which the American capitalists be-
lieve they can wreck the workers
organ and throw it's editors into fed
eral jails. They do not understand
that the American working class will
never permit their leaders to be i'm
prisoned or their paper crushed.
From Coast to Coast.
With one voice, from points as far
apart as Maine and California, the
American workers are sending their
contributions to the office of their
DAILY WORKER as testimony of
their loyalty and devotion to their pa
per and to their militant class leaders.
Thousands Needed.
The cost OF the litigation which the
United States government is scheming
to pile upon The DAILY WORKER
runs into thousands of dollars. Hun
dreds more must be paid in fines if
the United States courts determine to
impose fines in addition to sentences
on the three arrested Communists.
These costs can be met only by con-
tributions from the workers them
selves. Aid the struggle to save your

The federal government is trying to destroy The

means.
This destruction would mean the Gripping Of the

which the Party speaks to the of workers of this
country and hence the diminishing of the power of the
Party just at this time when the Workers (Communis)
Party is the only labor organization in the United States

The other mills in this city have not
as yet issued their reports, but they
are expected to announce similar pro-
fits in proportion to their size.
These mellon-cutting activities of
the textile barons at the present time
are decidedly interesting in view of
the fact that nearly all the textile
workers in New England have suf-
fered wage cuts in the past few weeks.
The wage reduction announcements,
when made, were accompanied with
the fearful declarations of the mill
|owners that they are compelled to take
such a step in order not to operate
their mills at a huge deficit.
