FUR BOSSES, IN
Panic, Increase
TERROR METHODS
Send Out Instructions;
Brag of Aid of Scab
Union, Police
Green Supports Bosses
Right Wing Guerilla Is
Indicted for Attack

Obviously frightened by the loom
ing general strike of the furriers
and the growing influence of the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union, the chieftains of the Asso-
ciated Fur Manufacturers have sent
a frenzied circular of "instructions"
to their members, it has just been
learned.
Both the tremendous demonstra-
tion of the furriers at the recent
Cooper Union meeting and the re-
markable victory chalked up by the
Industrial Union when the union
signed an unusually advantageous
agreement with the manufacturers
of the Federated Rabbit Dressing
Corporation, have served notice on
the bosses that the coming general
strike can end in only one way-in
complete triumph for the furriers.
Bosses Panic Stricken.
Two things were evident from the
instructions sent out by the Asso-
ciated to its members: firstly, that
the fighting spirit and determina-
tion of the furriers has thrown a
panic into the ranks of the bosses
and their associates in the scab
"Joint Council; and secondly, it has
revealed in a glaring fashion the
close alliance between the leaders of
the Associated, the leaders of the
"Joint Council" and the Tammany
police department.
Unable to dismiss the fact that
the workers stand prepared to an
swer the call of the general strike
the moment it is made, the bosses
are offered the consolation that they
have other friends" Standing side
by side with them is the strikebreak-
ing crew led by Matthew Woll and
Edward F. McGrady, the chiefs of
the yellow socialist" Forward, and
the officials of the Tammany police
department.
After assuring the bosses of the
"aid" they will receive from the scab

Guards around the Workers Inter-

when rumors of another raid on the

Of the workers.
Coffee and tobacco is being sup
piled to the armed workers who stay
awake all night to prevent the
bosses agents from destroying the
union and relief center as they did
in the early days of the strike. The
workers guard are determined to
prevent the destruction of the tent
colony at all costs.
About ten days ago, in the middle
of the night, the guards shot at
prowlers who were seen near the
tents. The same action will again
be taken against any gunmen of the

100000 DRIVEN

ATLANTIC CITY, N, J., June Z.
-Three-quarters of a million peo-
pie are being forced out of en-
ployment annually by the increase
in use of mechanical power in this
country, ]. R. Howard-of Iowa, past
president of the American Farm
Bureau Federation, today told the
National Electric Light Association
Convention.
Three hundred thousand men, he
said, are being replaced each year;
on the farms by mechanical energy
while more than 100000 are driven
from other industries.
Howard was not able to offer any
cure for this tremendous and steady
increase in the army Of the unem-
ployed, other than vague hope that
new industries would be created
which could absorb the surplus la
Dor power. BY his own figures, this
is not being done. He seemed

Serve NOTICE
OF INJUNCTION
IN IRON STRIKE:
A. F. of L. Aids Bosses
in Obtaining Writ

The basis for a sweeping injunc-
ton against the 1900 iron and
bronze workers whose strike has
tied up scores of shops in Greater
New York was yesterday laid with
the serving of the notice of an in
junction against picketing obtained
by the Madison Iron Works, of the
Bronx, upon the Iron and Bronze
Workers Union.
A. F. L. Aids injunction.
Since the Madison firm is lead
ing member of the iron bosses as
sociation, it is regarded as only a
question Of days when the associa-
tion will attempt to obtain blanket
injunction. Not only the bosses of
the Madison Iron Works, but also
the reactionary officaldom of the
American Federation of Labor
Structural Iron Unions were instru-
mental in the serving of the in
junction notice on the strikers. For
the injunction is packed full of mis-
leading statements which strike
leaders state could only have been
furnished the bosses by the A. +.
of L. iron workers misleaders.
The injunction obtained by the
Madison Works was granted by
State Supreme Court Justice John
M. Tierney, and the hearing on the
injunction will be held next We'd

The hand of the A. F. of L. in
aiding the bosses in obtaining the

false statements contained within

member of the American Federation
of Labor, but is known thruout the

DEATH THREAT TO
SOVIET C0NSULs
80 Jailed in Manchuria
Face Special Court

MUKDEN, Manchuria, June T.
The reactionary government of
Chang Hsueh-liang threatens death
to the 80 citizens of the Soviet
Union, all of them consuls or at
taches of the consulates in Mukden
and Hardin.
These arrested men will be tried
in Mukden before special court
being assembled by the imperialist
pawns who rule Manchuria. They
will be arraigned under the new law
of the murderous Chang Kai-shek
government, which provides the
death penalty for Communists. For
the purpose of this trial, Chang will
recognize nationalist China's laws as
supreme.
All of the governors of provinces
will go to Mukden to participate in
the trial. The governor of the spe-
cial district of Hardin, Chang
Ching-hui, who arrested Consul
General Kuznetsoff, has gone to
Mukden to report and arrange the
details of the frame-up.

HOOVER CLIQUE
PASSFARMB BILL
Census Bill Conference,
Conscription Next

WASHINGTON, June THE
house of representatives today
passed the Hoover farm bill, with
out debentures, and by steam-roller
tactics.
Debate was limited to one hour
for each side, and Speaker Long
worth put the question to a vote
while speakers from both sides were
eagerly clamoring for the floor. He
took the "aye" vote, and then an
nounced the passage of the bill
without waiting for any "no" votes.
The house now proposes a recess
within a few days.
The bill must now return to the
senate, because of the change made
to knock out the debenture clause.
Although Senator Norris promises
there will be fight in the senate
to put debenture provisions back in
the bill, there seems a certainty it
will be passed in its present form,
in view of Hoover's stern orders
that the legislation must be rushed
to make way for the universal con-
scription bills he has planned and

congress to participate in his claw

BEHAVIOR AND MARRIAGE

The mystery Of marriage has been broken down. We

study OF human behavior a way to more simple
marital relations"
Utterly wisely and profoundly yes, but what does 1t
mean? Certainly not that the ways into and out Of
matrimony should be further smpfed If either is to
be made much easier the accurate description will not
be marriage but temporary association.
It is very oldfashoned view and probably easily re-
futed in this day by eminent psychologists and soc-
ologsts but there is something said for the theory
that what is needed not much study of human be-
havor for the purpose of fitting marriage to it. as study
OF marriage for the purpose Of fitting human behavior
to 1t.
1t is not light thing for man and woman to give
themselves to each other and 1t is still less light thing
