Della Maggiora, the ill famed "Spe-
cial Tribunal" of the fascist regime
condemned to death the anti-facist

The same Tribunal has also sem
fenced Vitale Gortan, Luigi Laracas

The wild activity of the Special
Tribunal is a glaring proof of the
unstable fascist regime. It shows
that in spite of the pitiless ration
alization imposed upon the workers,
in spite of the wage cuts, in spite
of the heavy taxes, fascism does not
succeed in arresting the irovitable
course of the crisis which skaters

Mass Demonstration of
Leaflets in Cleveland

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Nov. 4.
Solomon Harper, Negro worker
and member of the Labor Jury in
the Gastonia case, spoke yesterday
on the railroading of the textile
workers and organizers, and the
terror campaign of the southern
textile companies.
He stressed the need of active,
militant labor unionism, centered in
the Trade Union Unity League, as
the best defense, and the way to
victory. Two large mass meetings
are being held in New Bedford, and
one in Fall River, at which Harper
speaks.
Harper also spoke, with John Ma
horski CT the National Textile
Workers Union, and Peter Hegelias
of the Communist Party at show

Union in South to Stay

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Nov. A.
The Leeksville Woolen Mill at
Homestead, one of the suburbs of
Charlotte, was shut down at mid
night yesterday. Two hundred
workers are on strike, under the
leadership of the National Textile
Workers Union, to which most of
them belong.
The strike became 100 per cent
strong when at 1920 this morning
eight mill hands who had been re-
lied on by the boss to scab walked
out, refusing to do this dirty work
any longer.
The midnight picket line, partici-
pated in by many women workers,
was led by the local union leaders,
and by James P. Reid, national
president of the N. T. w. IT,; Will

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 4.-Clarence
Darrow, of Chicago, Americas most
noted attorney in labor cases, is
being urged by the International
Labor Defense to cut short his vaca-
tion in Europe, and return immed-
lately to this country and take over
tn defense of the Communists being
arrested and helud under exortion-
ate bail on sedition charges. Seven
arrests have already been made in
Chicn~o. More than a score more
are threatened.
Attorney Darrow was the aading
counsel in 1920 in defense Of the
members of the Communist Labor

ing the so-called Palmer "red raids
IN January Of that year. He is,
therefore, thoroughly familiar with

Fascist Fury Reveals
Italian Crisis

the capitalist system. 1t shows quite
clearly that fasci0n is alarmed and
worried by the increasing discomfort
of the workers and by the movement
of large masses which develops itself
ever more openly against the fas-
cist-capitalist regime, against its
ruthlesseexploitation and its savage
terror.
The existence of the Communist
Party, which works illegally, and
of the General Federation of La
bor," which realizes the unity Of all
the workers in the struggle against
fascism, has always been a menace
to the fascir' regime unable to de-
stroy the leadership of the proletar-
ian masses and of the Slavonic min
critics.
Not the Italian workers only have
been victims of the infamous fascist
terror. The Slavonic and German
minorities subjecte dto Italian i'm

The orient mine is the
largest in the world, and even
now, after the lavish introduc-
ton of labor displacing coal
cutting and loading machinery, en-
ploys 1,400 men.
The rank and file of the U. NJ.
w. A. local here is flocking into the
National Miners Union, and also has
strong majority able at any time
they get a vote to transfer the
U. NJ. w. A, local bodily into the Ma
tional Miners Union.
They have not yet been able to
repudiate the Lewis and Fishwick
takers because the machine has ar
bitrarily controlled the meetings. At
the last meeting when the rank and
file overwhelmingly demanded they
be allowed to vote the local out of
the U. M. W. A., the president an
nounced an immediate adjournment,
and armed deputy sheriffs appeared
to clear the hall and break up the
meeting.
Fail To ExpeI AlIard.
The U. NJ. w. A. machine in this
local had the nerve to bring up for
expulsion Gerry Allard, of the Ma

zeigler case defendants, framed up
and sent to pUson by combination
Of coal bosses and the harrington
Fishwick administration of Illinois
district of the U. M. w. A. some
years ago. He is very active organ
izing miners into the N. M. U.
An overwhelming vote of the
membership defeated this motion to
expel, and showed what would hap
pen if the vote on which union the
local should belong to ever came up.
Try Again Wednesday.
The reactionary administration of
the U. M. w. A. local then turned
the charges over to Fishwick's Of
flee, and called for another trial Of
AAard next Wednesday. While this
fight goes on, the miners are flock
ing into Local 52S ofHthe National
Miners Union, anyway.
The sub-district conferences which
the U. M. w. A. machine and the
operators are so anxious to prevent
are to be held Sunday, Nov. 10, in
five different coal centers of Illinois:
Springfield, Staunton, Belleville,

These conferences will be great

repudiated Lewis and Fishwick, but
