Valley ~B" Standings

The features OF the current foot
bali week in the Valley were the
manner in which Brownsville ran
rough shod $40 over Breckenridge
and the staunch stand Of the Edin-
burg high Bobcats in holding the
powerful Harrington Cardinals TO.
The Cardinals had TO throw every
bit Of their power into play to exc
out a win over the determined Bob
cats, Hitherto confirmed AS a con-
firmed cellarite. John Young. Bob
cat captain. led the Bobcats III their
thrilling exhibition. He Sifted
through the Cardinal line often TO
nail Harlingen backs behind the
line OF scrimmage. This automat-
ically puts Young in the running
for a berth on the All-Valley eleven.
Lawrence Scores
Jimmy Lawrence plunged over
Harlingen's lone tally in the last
minute Of play fl the third quar-
ter. The Harrington line had little
trouble in smothering the Edinburg
offense. The Bobcats made only
one gesture that limited at scoring.

the workers. The New York shirt
makers have not forgotten that in
1926, Gooze, who today is mounting
progressive phrases as a part Of
the Music organization, signed a
secret supplementary agreement
when he ended that strike, that
meant worse conditions for the
workers. Thoe sprogressive work
ers, who protested against this be-
trayal, were expelled from the union.
While the agreement that was
signed on the end of the strike gave
an appearance of victory for the
workers. the secret agreement of
Gooze meant that all that had been
won by bitter struggle was actually
lost.
Music on Committee. =. :.
Then as to the third member Of
the committee. 1t is none other
than Mr.. Music himself, red-baiter
extraordinary, who expelled Arthur
Calhoun, one of the Brookwood Col
lege instructors because he believed
in militant action on the part of the
working class.
Hhis article does not pretnnd to
be detailed analysis of the Music
movement, but was kritten to point
out that by its association with the
Amalgamated Union Officials the
Musteites condemn themselves a
bitter enemiesc of the working class
that must be ruthlessly exposed and
fought.
Although Sulutsky and Gooze
may make progressive gestures in
their activities as part of the Music
movement, actually their deeds in a
critical situation in that organiza-
ton will be just as much against
the working class as their actions
as leading officials of the Anal
gamated Union.

The strike spread yesterday when
all the men working in the Yonkers

of the company are stationed out
side of the shafts patrolling the
ground in an attempt to intimidate
the pickets. They wear bullet
belt and their revolver holster over
their coat.
Speaking at the strike meeting
at Manhattan Lyceum, &c E. Fouth
St., yesterday morning, George E.
Powers, former organizer of the
Iron and Bronze Workers Union,
called upon the workers to spread
the strike. He urged that they go
to the engineers and blasters unions
and have them join the strike. He
told of the militant action of the
Gastonia strikers and remarked that
they should be inspired by their
fighting spirit.

Jim Kelly, an active striker, who
in addition to being snadhog, is
also a member of the Blasters Union

that if the Blasters Union will not

LOBBYIST Tells
SENATORS THAT
TARIFF MUST Be
Bingham Took Orders
from Textile Boss

Senators Harrison and Robinson,
democrats, yesterday denounced the
republican senator, Hiram w. Bing-
ham of Connecticut, for employing
Charles L. Eyanson, assistant to the
president of the manufacturers as
ISOLATION of Connecticut, to direct
the work of preparing for the tariff
provisions on textiles. Bingham, an
agent of the mill owners and no
torious labor hater, could not be re-
lied upon to prepare the proper tar
if schedules that would enable the
textile barons to charge monopolis-
tic prices to the consumers in the
United States so one of their ex-
perts was sent to Washington to
guide him. Bingham supplied
Eyanson with desk in his senatorial
office and permitted him to attend
and influence the senatorial sub
committee on tariff when the gen.
eral schedules were under considera-
ton.
Bingham Loyal To State.
Bingham, who was under fire
from several directions, said he was
"loyal" to his state and wanted to
find out what the people" of the
state wanted in the way of tariff
protection. He did not explain how
it happens that he considers only
an exploiter of labor as representa-
tives of the state, nor did he explain
what, in his opinion, the workers
who buy textiles to wear might
have to say on the monopolistic
prices charged by the textile mills
that pay their workers starvation
wages. Like all the other senator's,
Bingham thinks the opinions of the
exploiters of labor are the only ones
worth senatorial consideration.

Spent Millions
WITHOUT RELIEF
Hoover Gang Facing
New Scandal

Another scandal at Washington
doomed when Alexander Legge,
millionaire former president of the
international Harvester Company,
appointed by Hoover recently as
chairman of the federal farm
relief" board, admitted that he has
not the slightest idea regarding the
manner in which the farm relief
bill which was enacted June Is can
be put into effect.
Read 1t Twenty Times.
Legge confessed his ignorance
and incapacity in reply to a series
of questions by Senator Caraway
(Dem.) of Arkansas, while testify
ing in a senatorial investigation in
to the fitness of the members of
the farm relief. Legge indicated
that he and other members of the
board regarded the law as more or
less "foggy."
81 have read the bill about twenty
times" he said, land l don't under
stand it yet. If anyone of you I'M
derstand it," Legge said to the sem
ate committee, 'you are better men
than l am" Legge explained that
of the $50O,O00,000 allocated by con-
gress for farm relief" the board
had already, in a trifle more than
two months time, obligated itself
for more than S40,000,000.
Hired Expensive Lawyers.
Nothing whatever has been done
for farm relief, as preliminary work
is mot yet finished" Legge eX-
planned that eminent counsel" had
been hired to try to find out what
the law means, but refused to COM
ment on whether they had learned
anything about it.
When questioned about his con-
nection with the International Har-
vester trust, one of the most viciout
of the concerns robbing and pillag-
ing the farmers and driving them
from the land by thousands as it
forecloses mortgages because of I'M
paid farm machinery bills, Legge
was rather hazy.
He said he had resigned as pres
ident of the trust when Hoover ap-
pointed him head of the "relief"
board probably to relieve the far
mers of what little they have left
after the harvester trust and the
banks are through with them) and
that his present holdings were only
about one million dollars. Legge
evidently considers a million a tri-
vial amount, hardly worth mention
ing.
He was also asked about the
phenomenal rise of harvester trust
stock from 1920 to 1929, precisely
during those years of depression on
the farms. He refused to admit
that there was any connection be-
tween the wholesale pauperization
of the farmers and the enormous
rise in harvester trust profits.
