and further acts of terror followed on
the heels of the decision by Judge
Benson W. Hough of the federal court
evicting nearly 300 families of strik-
ing miners from their homes.
Unknown assassins, believed to be
in the pay of the Youngstown and
Ohio Coal Company, shot down a
union picket at the Dorothy mine and
escaped. Sheriff Hardesty of Belmont
county gave no indication as to his
efforts to apprehend the killers but
instead sought to give out the impress
sion that the attempted murder had
no connection with the strike.
The ent-Strikebreaker
In granting the applications for
evictions of miners filed by five coal
companies, Justice Hough carried a
step further the strikebreaking activi-
ties of the courts and the government.
Two hundred eighty-five families
must leave their homes, the judge
announced. The miners have only
themselves to blame, he declared, be-
cause they had refused to work for
scale below that agreed upon in
the Jacksonville agreement. He ex-
tended the limits of his strikebreak-
ing activities still further by ordering
The evictions of all miners from their
homes only in those cases where the
mines were in operation and permitted
them to continue in their homes in one
colliery at which no coal was being
dug.
Keeps Up Record.
By previous decree Judge rough
avicted 451 families. The total evicted
is now 736. All evictions have taken
place during winter. In the argument
over the date of eviction Judge Hough
declared that the day for the new
evictions might be postponed until
May /.

ried on, he promised, until the city,
state and nation are forced to make
provision for the unemployed.
That the officials of the American
Federation of Labor have no program
for combating the nationwide men
ace of anti-union injunctions was ad-
mitted by Matthew Vol, acting presi-
dent of the National Civic Federation
and vice-president of the A. F. of L.,
lat similar session Saturday night.
As to the best means of combating
injunctions, he said, he and his fellow
officials were undecided"
Mass Violations.
Wall attempted to ignore the sub
iect of mass violations as a means OF
ending the menace. But the question
was raised from the floor by rank
and filler. Vol said he opposed mass
violations and explained that the A.
F. of l.. was a voluntary organiza-
ton having no authority to compel
any course of action" 1t gave only
advice" to it's members, he said.
Labor Party Applauded.
Other militants in the audience APP
plauded when someone asked why
political action was not tried. Woll
was then forced to resort to the out
worn A. F. of L. appeal to the work
err. Vol said he and other members
of the A. F. of L. opposed a party OF
shadow known as the balance of pow
ers to avoid power by seeking the
labor.
Hugh Frayne, A. F. of L. organizer
in New York, presided.
VOLTS talk on injunctions was
couched in legalistic phraseology
characteristic of the sessions of the
National Civic Federation, where
Woll sits around the employers coun-
ell table planning class collaboration
schemes.
Only 100 union delegates attended.
A worker distributing copies of a
resolution passed at a recent confer
ence of unemployed called by the
New York Council which advocated
the adoption of an Unemployed Main
tenance Fund, was put out of the
meeting at the orders of Abraham
Lefkowitz. Lefkowitz ordered Sar-
geant Connolly at the door of the
meeting to put the worker complete
ly out of the hail."
At the Saturday meeting at which
Lefkowitz gave the opening remarks,
his speech was interpreted as an in
augural address marking his complete
at-one-ment with the A. F. of L. bu-
Ireaucracy. SIN spite of reports in the
newspapers to the contrary" he stat
ed, 1--WE are not opposed to the in
junction" He wished only to regu-
late their issuance, he said. At an
other time he referred to that great
leader of the American labor move
ment, William Green"
Meeting Saturday.
Several hundred unemployed work
ers applauded the demands of the
New York Council of the Unemployed
at an open air mass meeting Satur-
day afternoon. The speakers were
Harry Eiseman, of the Young Pion-
GERS, and several unemployed work
Iers. Two unemployed meetings will be
held by the Council for the Unem-
ployed this Wednesday, at 2 p. m. at
101 w. 9th ST., and at the Brooklyn

fire US or put us on part time. We
put out more work and get less wages
than before. But the stockholders are
not worrying about us. They get their
millions without lick of work and
if the workers produce more, it means
more profits for the unemployed
stockholders instead of better condi-
tions for the workers. Don't think
we are not getting wise to these
things.
Many of the workers in the differ
ent departments are beginning to talk
about organizing. Don't be surprised
if we tell you soon that we have or
gained some shop committees and
then we will lay plans for a real union
which will make the bosses give us
more of the profits we make for
them"
Conditions Terrible.
Some of the women workers also
denounced the terrible conditions at
the plant. "How can we live decently
on the $d2 or SIS week they give
us?" they said. ''The wives of the
bosses have plenty of nice clothes and
automobiles to ride in. We must be
content with last years hats and
coats and are forced to ride the
crowded and filthy subways. Even
the traction bosses are going to make
US pay more for this pleasure We
women workers are with the men in
the fight to organize and get better
conditions"

Plaintiff LOSES
IN $4,000 ACTION
Judgment for Defendant in
J DanidCIuk rs. Hansen Suit

Judgment for the defendant to
recover costs was rendered in su-
perior court yesterday by Judge AL
Ign Brown in the $4,000 personal
injury action of Victor Danielczuk
against Alfred Hansen. The plain
tiff claimed damages for personal
injuries sustained by being knocked
down by the defendants automobile
last New Years eve on Robbins
street in Newington. Judge Brown
found that the accounts OF both
parties regarding the accident were
contradictory. and although 1t was
not disputed that the plaintiff was
knocked down, the testimony show
ed that the defendant was driving
slow. the night being exceptionally
dark and foggy.
At the same time another car was
approaching from the opposite d.
rection. AS the cars were about to
pass, it is alleged. the plaintiff dart
ed suddenly in front Of the other
car and in the path of the Hansen
machine, the defendant being un-
able to meet with any emergency
as Danielczuk appeared only within
three or four feet of the defendants
car.
The court was satisfied with the
testimony of the defendant and his
wife, who was passenger vat the
time, while on the other hand
Judge Brown finds that the plain
tiff's testimony was not clear and
vividly showed signs of contributory
negligence. Attorney Albert A.
Greenberg represented the defen-
liant.
