Of bunk. AS regards culture and

POVERTY NO CRIME;
RELIEF is NEEDED

New York-Poverty is not a crime,
but is an economic condition which
the state is bound to recognize in
some way or other, State Senator
Seabury c. Mastick, chairman of the
join legislative committee for old age
relief, declared before the Ethical Gull
ture Society.
Senator Mastick estimated that A.
900 persons in this state more than
70 years old would be entitled to old
age relief, and that the cost of such
law would be $12,00O,000 annually,
at the rate of $50 month to each
applicant. He said an old age pen
sion law would not depopulate insti-
tutions for the aged, as many old
people would need hospital and insti-
tuition care and some would have no
other place to go.

Marion, N. C. (ILNS)-The at
tempt to prove Alfred Hoffman, or
ganizer of the United Textile Work
ers, and Wes Fowler, Del Lewis and
Lawrence Hogan, strikers, guilty of
insurrection for alleged disorders con-
nected with the strike against the
Marion Manufacturing Company,
came to an abrupt close here when
Judge V. G. Cowper granted plea of
non-suit.
At the conclusion of the states
case, the defense council announced
that no witnesses would be presented
but that plea for dismissal of the
case would be made with perfect con-
fidence on the states own evidence.
The decision of the Judge came after
prolonged argument by both counsels.
Charges against j. Hugh Hall, not
a striker but arrested with them and
whose escape from Jail caused pre-
vious mistrial, were dismissed for
lack of evidence.
The Judge then directed Solicitor
j. Will Pless to order a panel of We
niremen from Burke county and to
be ready to proceed with the rioting
cases against Hoffman, and his three
associates, charged with rioting and
resisting an officer.
These four are also under indict-
ment, with so others, on the same
charge in connection with the disor-
ders resulting from Sheriff Adkins
attempt to move a non-union family
into a mill house on August 80.
Many Other Under Indictment
In addition are indictments against
81 strikers for rioting and disorder
on October 2, when six strikers were
killed and some 20 wounded by depu-
ties. The trials of eight deputies in
dicted for these killings will begin
December g., in Yancey county.
The conclusion of the states case
was decidedly weak, consisting almost
entirely of character witnesses for
Sheriff Adkins and his deputies and
the others who presented direct testi-
mony.
The testimony of Captain w. c..
LYDIA, commander of the militia dur
ing the strike, and called as the last
witness for the state, did not fulfil
prediction as to it's Importance.

the injury to the soldier was so slight
as to not incapacitate him from duty
at all, Hutchins asked:

He also brought out that the

The call was issued under instruc-

ronto.
"The Southern textile workers are
victims of low wages, long hours and

trial rehabilitation measures under
taken during the last two weeks by
President Hoover, in which the CO.
operation of the American Federation
of Labor was early sought, are in
line with and part of the program
laid before the New Orleans conven-
tion Of the A. F. of L. a year ago
Immediately after Mr.. Hoover's cleo
tion. The program was outlined there
by Gov. Ralph 0. Brewster, of Maine,
before conference of state govern
ors and was presented as President
elect Hoover's program. With Gov
ernor Brewster's approval his speech
to the assembled governors was read
to the A. F. of L. convention by John
P. Frey and made part of the con-
vention record. Not a step taken by
President Hoover since the stock
market collapse fails to fit into the
program laid before labor then,
though those steps by no means con-
stitute the complete program there
offered.
More important than that, not a
step taken by the president fails to
fit into the program of organized la
Dor itself, as laid down in repeated
conventions and as sought to be ap-
piled regularly in every industrial de-
preston.
Reporting the Brewster speech at
New Orleans, International Labor
News Service said of the event:
Perhaps no program ever evolved
by labor in any country has ever re-
ceived such positive and quick ratif-
cation by such overwhelming govern
mental power as this, for not only
does the next president make the pro-
gram his own, but the governors of
majority of the states made it clear
that they made it likewise theirs"
