HooverAnnounces New
immigration Rules

WASHINGTON, March I'd. -
President Hoover proclaimed the
highly controversial national origins
immigration quota limitations to-
night, to become effective July !,
unless congress intervenes and re-
peals the provisions.
Issuance of the proclamation will
renew agitation for repeal at the
extra session.
The house voted repeal of the pro-
vision in the last session but the
senate failed to act in the face of
filibuster threats by Senator Reed,
republican, Pennsylvania. T h e
house must act again because that
was the closing session Of congress.
The new measure which doubles
the British quota and halves those
of central and southern Europe was
intended to keep out the more radi-
cal workers. Hoover is understood
to be in favor of other measures for
this purpose, and has stated that he
fears the English workers are get
ting "redder."

WORLDS BIGGEST
SUBMARINE FOR
PACIFIC FLEET
Age Extended in Navy
Recruiting Drive 4.

SAN DICED, Calf, March a.
The Pacific fleet, which returned to
it's base here yesterday after par
ticipating in the maneuvers at
Panama, has been reinforced by the
addition of the worlds largest SUBJ
marine, the Vice A. The submarine.
which travelled 5000 miles from
Portsmouth, Virginia, is built for
war in the Pacific, where long
cruising radius is essential. 1t is
equipped for laying mines. The
Vice is forty feet longer and 900
tons more displacement than three
large cruiser submarines of the most
modern type which were recently
built.
The addition of the submarine,
Vice A, follows closely after the ar
rival of the new large airplane car
riers, Saratoga and Lexington. In
spite of disarmament conferences"
and peace pacts, the naval and
other preparations are being push
ed forward rapidly by the govern
ment.
While the new battleships and
submarines are being built, the gov
eminent is conducting an intensive
recruiting campaign for the navy.
The enlistment age is now from II
to So, and many of the recruits ar
irving here are boys of Is or 16,
with navy age" of II or above.

RECOGNITION FOR
UssR BY court
Decision Refers to the
Present Russic, Govt

Judicial recognition of the Soviet
Union was made here when Federal
Judge Goddard ruled against the
motion of the Bank of France for
al here in its action for obtain
s5,O00,000 in Soviet gold from
Chase National and the Equita-
lie Trust Company as agents for
the Soviet government.
The Bank of France is now con-
sidering the ACCESSIBILITY of bringing
to trial here the action for obtain
ing s5,OO0,000 in Soviet gold, which
is now held in the vaults of the
Chase National Bank and the Equit-
able Trust Company, as agents for
the Soviet government.
The decision given by Judge God
dard is considered important be-
cause it quite frankly recognized the
fact that the Soviet Union exists
as far as the american businessmen
are concerned, no matter how the
government at Washington may pre-
sumo to act in the matter of recog-
milton. 1t also quite effectively tai
lied the attempts of the Bank of
France to prevent the Chase Ma
tional and Equitable from taking its
own pre-revolution business from
Russia.

John Urban, Militant
Slav Worker, Killed
by a Speeding Auto

PITTSBURGH, March 24.-The
funeral Of John Urban, active labor
leader and h.ember Of the Commu-

ternoon in North Braddock. Promin-
emf working class leaders from Pitts
burgh spoke at the funeral and paid
tribute to the work of Urban in the
working class movement.
Urban was killed by speeding
automobile Wednesday afternoon.
While crossing Ardmore Boulevard
in North Braddock, with two COM
rades, Urban was struck by the auto
mobile, which threw him distance
of 80 feet, causing a fractured skull
and broken legs. He died before

appeals for extending the organiza-
ton drive into further unorganized
fields.
, The record of achievements which
the union leaders will present to to-
nights conference can easily be
termed as a brilliant page in the
history of New York's labor strug-
giles of more recent years.
In the short space elapsing since
the organization drive was begun,
this militant and independent or
ganization of shoe workers has sue
ceeded in increasing its membership
by several thousand.
While this in itself is quite an
accomplishment, the real victories
gained is not in the membership in
crease alone, because in every shop
ltnionized, wage increases, shorten
ing of hours and the installation of
other union conditions, were OBJ
tanned.
This was done in an industry which
was almost completely open shop.
Not even a sign remains of the other
two unions that at one time con-
trolled the industry. These unions
are the ultra black A. F. of L. Boot
and Shoe Workers Union, and the
company unionized and
disintegrated Shoe Workers Pro-
tective Union.
The conference of shop delegates
tonight is expected to be the most
optimistic gathering of shoe work
ers in m-ny a long year.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The

week. The senate agriculture COM
mittee will start work tomorrow and
the house committee will begin We'd

A long parade of witnesses. in
Guiding leaders of organizations of
large landowners, agricultural ex-

Secretary of Agriculture Hyde
will be absent at the opening of the
hearing. He has informed McNary
that private business will keep him
at his home in Missouri for about
ten days, the anticipated duration
of the preliminary hearings.
His sudden decision to leave Wash

here as notice from the administra-

sibility for the farm bill beyond the
general outline by Hoover in his
campaign speeches.

That's Where Jingoists

WASHINGTON (L.R.A.).-When
an open-shop manufacturer contrib
utes money to a strikebrealling, pro-
fessio~~l patriotic organization, it
may deduct the amount of. it's con-
tribution in figuring out its income.
This is the decision of the Board of
Tax Appeals in a case brought by
the Simcns Brick Co. of California.
The Simons Brick Co. during two
successive years had handed a good
sized check to the solicitor for the
Better America Federation of that
state. 1t contended, in its appeal to
the Board of Tax Appeals, that this
contribution was made "for the pur-
pose of promoting good will between
capital and labor, securing advice
and expertassistance relative there
to, and to allay and prevent strikes
and other labor disturbances The
government upholds this contention
and says that "these were ordinary
and necessary business expenses and
should be allowed as deductions"

The Better America Federation is
supported chiefly by public utility
interests and large commercial in
terests in southern California 1t is,
iii fact, an outgrowth of the old
Commercial Federation of California
and is a pure and simple business
mans organization, using the flag
and the patriotic appeal to cover its
clear-cut class organization. 1t is

active some years ago in the prose-
cution OF the I. w. W., using three
paid stool-pigeons, who went about
the state appearing at trials under
the criminal syndicalism law.
The capitalist government of the
United States holds, correctly and
consistently, that contributions to

paign for his release. Now he has
withdrawn his consent and attacks
us in the papers of our class enc
mics. The black forces that were
responsible for MONEYS conviction
now collaborate with Mooney in at
tacks upon the militant organization
for class defense of the workers.
The /. L. d. has in the past carried
on an effective campaign for the
release of Mooney and Billings. The
campaign for the release of Mooney
and Billings had died down COM
pletely couple of years ago, and
it was the l. L. D. which revived
national interest in this case, with
the consent and the cooperation of
Mooney. Not only in this country,
but internationally, the I. L. D. has
conducted a campaign for the re-
lease of Mooney and Billings. This
campaign is still being conducted by
the l. L. D. The numerous maya
zines, publications and press services
of the international Red Aid, with
which the l. l.. D. is affiliated, has
made the campaign to free Mooney
and Billings known to the workers
throughout the world. At the pre-
sent time in all of its publications
up to this very day, are writings
about the Mooney Billings case. The
photographs as well as publicity
matter on the Mooney case have
been sent by the I. L. D. through
the l. R. A. throughout the world.
1t is unfortunate that Mooney
conferences such elements and
through such mediums as the Cath
Ollie Monitor and the Jewish Eor-
ward, launches his attacks upon the
workers organization. If it had not
been for the support of the militant
workers in Russia, America and in
other countries, Mooney would have
been hanged in California ten years
ago. Now, apparently he relics for
his freedom on the reactionary and
black forces who were instrumental
in securing his conviction.
DESPITE anything that may be
done by the labor takers of Cali
fornia, despite attacks of the reac-
tionary catholic press, despite the
opposition of all dark and sinister
forces opposed to the working Glars
movement, the l. L. d. as class
organization will continue to fight
for the release of Warren X. Bill
lings and Tom Mooney. The case
of Mooney and Billings is not per-
sonal matter but is a class matter,
ami Mooney and Billings are being
prosecuted as militant representa-
tives OF the working class. Mooney
and Billings were framed uu in the
preparedness day parade IL years
ago, because they were militant la
Dor leaders in California, because
they were fighting the open-shon de-
mand, because they were o-gnnizin~
the workers into unions and because
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1929-03-25

they were leading strikers for better
conditions.
Mooney and Billings are the vic
Tins of enc of the most vicious and
palpable frame-ups in the history of
the American labor movement. They
are symbols of the militant struggle
Of the workers against capitalist
Justice and capitalist exploitation.
When We fight for the release of
Mooney and Billings, when we or
ganize the workers in the campaign
to free Mooney and Billings, we
fight against the rotten frame-up
system which characterizes the gov
eminent, from the highest to the
lowest officials; we fight against
the prosecutions of workers by the
capitalist courts; we fight for the
right of the workers to struggle
against exploitation and to struggle
for better working conditions.
The l. L. D. will continue this
campaign. The I. L. D. is now car
rying on and will continue to carry
on an international campaign for
the release of Mooney and Billings.
The fact that Mooney attacks us, the
fact that Mooney appeals to anti
working class elements, does not
alter the fact that he was framed
up as working class leader. The
fight against the Mooney and Bill
lings frame-up is part Of Che
struggle of the working class
against capitalist justice, against the
frame-up system, against attacks of
the capitalist courts and the capital
list government on the workers.
Mooney and Billings must be free.
The workers of America and of the
world saved Mooney and Billings
from death. They must continue the
fight until Mooney and Billings, per-
secuted solely because of their work
ing-class activity, walk from the
Rastilles of Imprisonment free men.
If Mooney realizes his mistake, and
realizes that he is flirting with anti
working-class elements, upon his re-
lease he could again take his place
as leader Of the working class in
the struggle for emancipation from
capitalist justice. Let us hope that
Mooney will correct his error and
will not be lost to the working class.
The I. L. D. demands the freedom
of Mooney and Billings. The I. L.
D. fights for the release of all class
war prisoners. The I. L. D. fights
against all capitalist frame-ups. The
!. L. D. fights to educate and organ
ize the working class to understand
the forces that have placed Mooney
and Billings in 9 living tomb and
placed hundreds end thousands Of
other workers in SIMILAR position.
Mooney and Billings must be freed.
The working class alone can free
the representative Of their clasr
who are framed rp. iai'ed, tortured
and murdered by their class enemies. |
