ministration" of the United States
Marine Corps in Nicaragua, Major
General John A. Lejeune, who an
nounces his retirement as Marine
Corps commandant this month,
states that "the American interven-
ton in Nicaragua was not an act of
imperialism 1t was the act of good
samaritan 1t was an even more
hivalrous deed than that Of the good

7 AMMANY COPS
TERRORIzE THE
TAXI Driver S
Take Away Cards and
Strip Cabs
(Bu Worker Correspondent

(Bu u Worker Correspondent
The hack inspectors working out
Of the hack bureau last week started
a campaign of terror against the
taxi drivers of this city. All over
the city cabs were raided while
drivers were inside coffee pots hav-
ing a bite to eat. Drivers complain
that their criminal Identification
cards We're stolen by these Tam
many cops and as a result were then
unable to work.
In some cases when the drivers
came out to their cabs they were
told by other drivers to go to the
nearest police station where they
would find their cards. This was
the case of a number Of drivers who
were hacking up the Bronx.
Terrorize Drivers.
One driver reports that while sit
ting on his taxi two hack inspectors
drove alongside his cab and ordered
him to hand over his credentials.
This the driver did and was told to
follow the police car to the East
159th St. police station. When the
driver entered the police station he
reports that he saw several other
cab drivers who clso had their cards
stolen from them. In some cases
the credentials were given back to
the drivers; the rest were given
complaints to the Hack License Bu-
reau. where John brennan and Felix
Muldoon. Tammany police commits
sioncrs, hold sway.
Cops Are Stripped.
Still drivers who operate their
own cabs also report sudden actlv-
itv or the part of the hack inspec-
tors. Many cabs have been stripped
of their medalions and the drivers
forced to lay up their cabs for a
week or more. 1t is not unusual
for driver to come down to his
garage in the morning to work only
to find that his cab had been strip
ped by hack inspectors during the
night.
Bosses Cooperate With Cops.
More and more rules and regula-
tions come every day which makes
it almost impossible for the taxi
driver to make a living. Fleet own
ers, members of the Five Boroughs
Taxi Owners Association, the bosses
organization, are cooperating with
the cops, drivers working for these
fleet owners declare.
To stop police persecution and
bounding by fleet owners the taxi
drivers are organizing union, the
Taxi Chauffeurs Union, which meets
the first and third Thursdays of the
month at the Labor Temple, 243 E.

Hoover Frame Experts
Choose Professional
Prosecutor to Assist

WASHINGTON, July, 2,-Presi-
dent Hoover's frame-up board of ex-
perts, known as the claw enforce
ment commission" announced today
that it has added to its council of
assistants Alfred Bettman of Gin
cinnati.
Bettman is a professional prose-
cutor, having held that post in coun-
ty, city and federal employ. His
task will be to Investigate" the
prosecution, and propose methods by
which more convictions, particularly
in labor cases, can be assured.
The Hoover claw enforcement
commission" is now in recess, but
will hold meetings again toward the
end of the month when larger quar-
ters and more clerical assistance will
be ready.

HARVESTER CHIEF.
FARM BOARD HEAD
Will Reduce Taxes on
Rich, But Build Navy

WASHINGTON, July 2.-Presi-
dent Hoover today flouted the farm
ers by appointing as head of the
newly created farm board, which
will supervise the details of the ad-
ministration of the federal farm
law passed by the last special ses-
sion of congress, by appointing as
it's chairman one of the cruelest ex-
ploiters of farmers, Alexander
Legge, president of the Information
al Harvester trust since 1922, and
an official of the trust for years
before that.
Legge has been drawing a salary
of 100000 a year as president of
the trust.
Takes Fruit Trust Head.
Hoover also announced, at the
same time, the appointment of c.
C. league, president of the Cali
fornia Fruit Growers, Inc, and
president of the Walnut Growers
Cooperative Marketing Association.
Both of leagues organizations,
which he helped create, are called
cooperative" but are actually
trusts made up of wealthy planta-
tion owners and bankers. Their
combined marketings each year are
in the neighborhood of $3.50, 900.
Hoover likewise announced today
that his cabinet was considering
reduction of some taxes. In the
past such reductions have been al
together to the advantage of the
big corporations, and have not re-
duced the burdens on the farmers
and smaller businesses at all.
That a similar plan will be fol-
lowed this time is indicated by
Hoover's statement, which declares
also that no reductions will be al
lowed that will in any way inter-
fere with his war preparations.
Enlarged Navy Program.
Hoover said today:
"We are giving careful study to
the possibility of tax reduction. We
all hope that the situation may work
out on the side of a safe surplus
for material relief. We must de-
termine three things before there
can be any conclusion on the sub
ject.
First, we must know what the
effect will be of the legislation dur
ing the last IL months, which has
greatly increased expenditures for
the present fiscal year beyond the
original budget. The new enlarged
program for naval ornaments, the
increased expenditure on army and
navy aviation, the rebuilding of
army posts, and increased expendi-
lures on veterans services-in addi-
tion to the necessities in the
Mediterranean fly and farm relief
work--have all intervened since the
budget passed congress"

BRITISH MAKE
MOVE AGAINST
U. S. IN CHINA
Sign New Naval Pact
with Marking

SHANGHAI, July While Ram
say Macdonald and his fellow
"laborites" arc smoking the Dawes
pipe of "peace" and drooling many
words about "an understanding"
with America, British imperialism,
whose policies Macdonald now
guides, took an important step to-
ward war with the United States
with the announcement last night
of a new naval agreement between
Great Britain and the Nanking gov
ernment.
The agreement provides for a
ritish naval mission to be located
China to "assist in the develop
lent of the Chinese navy" and for
ne training of Chinese naval cadets
in England. These two major pro-
visions are agreed upon in connec-
ton with a comprehensive naval
building program on the part of the
Nanking government.
British Diplomatic Victory.
The signing of this new pact con-
stitutes for British imperialism a
diplomatic victory over the United
States Of paramount Importance,
greatly intensifying the rivalry be-
tween the two major imperialist
powers and bringing nearer the
danger of new world war.
The Nanking government, which
is a bloc of militarist cliques, had
been torn by intrigues on the part
of groups backed chiefly by the
United States and Britain. Lately
American dollars seemed firmly in
trenched in the Marking govern
ment, and British imperialism ap-
parently turned to the Chinese war
lord, Feng Yu-hsiang, to effect its
aims. Feng, backed by both British
and Japanese money, carried on war
preparations against Chang for
several months, which recently
ended rather "mysteriously" with
Feng's withdrawal from the scene
nd his decision to go abroad,
umptuouslv rewarded in cash, of
curse.
What About Feng?
The new foothold secured by the
British through the agreement Of
fers a possible explanation of Feng's
sudden retirement from the scene.
The tool of Britain is no longer
needed to war against Britain's new
friend, Chang.
However, Chinese militarist in
trigue being what it is, it is not at
all certain that Feng is still being
supported by the British and that
he is definitely out Of the way. They
may have thrown him over, which
would again account for his temper
ary withdrawal to wait for more
opportune time to strike. Indica-
tions are that some sort of an alli-
ance has been formed between Feng
and Yen Hsi-Shan, governor OF
Shansi, who has been "on the
fence" trying to make up his mind
which side it would be more profit
able to support. Feng has been
:iven S1,500,o0o by the Marking
government, ostensibly to pay his
..nen, but really as bribe for him
self, and is now preparing to go to
Japan, accompanied by Yen. This
would Indicate that he will continue
to function as an agent of Japanese
imperialism.
Meanwhile the Marking govern
ment is having its hands full try
ing to decide what to do with
Feng's army of 100000. Chang
Hsueh-liang, dictator of Manchuria,
who is ostensibly a member of the
Nanking government, but who is de-
cidedly partial to Japan, has re-
fused to attend conference in, Pc

With this in mind, am reminded
of a question newspaper man asked
me not long ago.
"What sort of material did you have
when you took charge Of the Cubs?"
And my answer was that you don't
see so many Of them around, now. TWO
catcherS, first baSeman, two pitchers
who were then untried individuals, and
one outfielder represent practicaiiy an
survived since the close of the 1925
season. This means that in the four
seasons it has taken the club to strike
a pennant-winning gait there have
been plenty of patches put on the
machines tires.
Here Are the "Leavings."
Hartnett and Gonzales were the
catchers. Grimm, really great first
baseman and real field leader; Blake
and Bush, both young pitchers, and
"leavings" around which I had to build
q ball club.
Two outfielders, Wilson and Stephen
son, came I'D in my first year, and have
demonstrated that the confidence had
that their American Association form
would justify their place as major
league regulars, has not been misplaced.
Root also came back to the Cubs In
1926 and hit winning stride that he
has maintained ever since.
The next year, 1927, found English
joining the club, to become eventually
the regular shortstop, and a player
whose career should be a brilliant one.
Two veteran pitchers were acquired in
trades during that season. Carlson was
one and Nehf the. other. I have felt
that had Nehf been available earlier in
1927 the Cubs might have crashed
through to a pennant in that year.
The club still seemed to be lacking
in two essential qualities, the punch
and sufacient pitching. A winning
pitcher turned up in Malone, and
deal that Was made for Cuyler appeared
