YOUNG WANTS I
RADIO COMBINE
FOR " A R
Morgan Bankers Want
Monopoly to Fight
Britain

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Owen
D. Young, one of the leaders in
Hoover's "grand fascist council"
urges the further monopolization of
the radio and telegraph system of
the United States.
Young, who is head of the Radio
Corporation, and General Electric
Co., has big interest in combining
the communication system in the
United States under the control Of
the Morgan bankers.
Besides further consolidation help
ing American capitalism in its
struggle for world markets, Young
declared that it would be a valuable
war measure. He said:
81 beg of you not to put the COM
munication services of the United
States, which are essential to the de-
velopment and extension of our
business in times of peace, and al
ways essential to the national de-
fense, in a position where others
may dictate to us here and we are
powerless to protect ourselves" he
said.
The classification that Young
recommends, would be a profitable
venture to the American Telegraph
and Telephone Co., General Electric
Co. and the Radio Corporation of
America. 1t would be direct slap
at the consolidated British commu-
nications system, and would intensi-
fly world competition in this field.
Young wants a mild sort of gov
ernment control. He wants all the
resources of the imperialist govern
ment behind the Morgan bankers in
their competition with the British
imperialists.
Directly referring and linking up
the struggle for more cruisers with
the competition with British radio
and telegraph companies, Young
blurted out: PARTY, gentlemen, is
important to the United States in
more fields than warships: in none
more so than communications"

ANOTHER GAST0N
MURDER C CHARGE
Want to Burn Saylors;
Carter Out on Bail

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Dec. TO-
The very day that George Carter
the last of the seven Gastonia
strikers sentenced to 20 years was
freed from Mecklenburg County
Prison, on bail pending appeal, the
mill bosses of the South issued q
warrant for C. D. Saylors, organ
izer for the International Labor De-
fense, charging him with murder.
The warrant came after the
splendid Southern conference of the
II. L. D., held at Charlotte, and
marked an intensified reign of ter
ror instituted by the bosses.
At the same time that Saylors is
charged with conspiracy and murder
in connection with the death OF
Chief o. D. AderhoIt, the Charlotte
textile mill owners controlled press
inaugurated new campaign to in
cite the Black Hundreds to attack
the headquarters of the |. L. D..
stating that "the radical headquar.
ters in Charlotte, on East Fourth
St., were stocked with guns, and
that armed guards are on duty there
with orders to shoot if any body
bothers around"
Saylors is singled out to be buried
alive in Southern dungeons because
he swore to statement that in the
Black Hundred mob which flogged
Ben Wells were Solicitor John G
Carpenter and Major A. l.. Bul.
winllle. Saylors is now under per-
jury charge for his true statement il
Mecklenburg County Court.
Robert Allen, former defendant
whose case was mol pressed through
the efforts of the l. L. D., has
turned traitor to the workers ano
has been bought up to frame lies
against them. The Charlotte News
says that "new evidence against
Saylors came up in an affidavit
made Saturday in Gastonia by
Robert Allen, former defendant
whose case was mol pressed" The
! News also writes that Allen gave
the story about guns in the |. l.. D
office.

due consideration of self defense

SPY, POLICE, TO
FRAME ACC0RSI
Coal CO. Henchmen
Contradict Each Other

PITTSBURGH, Dec. 10.-District
Attorney Langfitt outlined the case
for the State at the opening session
today of the Accorsi trial, and indi-
Gated that the state would demand
the death sentence. The majority
of the witnesses for the state are
county detectives and state troopers.
The latter were forced to admit, un-
der cross-examination, the incredible
brutality they used at the Cheswick
meeting. The witnesses evidence"
as to the supposed "disorderly"
character of the meeting was lin
tied to the statement that there were
cheers for SaccO and Vanzetti and
"booing" and jeers for the troopers.
The troopers admitted throwing
mine or ten tear-gas bombs" and
to beating men and women with
clubs.
The county sheriff admitted that
previous meetings were orderly. 1t
is clear there was a deliberate plot
of county authorities and state
troopers to drown the meeting in
blood. The troopers tried to paint
a picture of their "poIiteness and
delicacy" in requesting the meet
ing be dispersed before resorting to
Whence. Both Witnesses Brown and
Coplan charge that the slayer fired
five shots in a period of about
minute, but describe minutely the
color of his suit, hat, shoes, shirt,
mOustache, etc.
All Prosecution witnesses parrot
the remark that they heard from
man in the crowd Kill the son of
a bitch." This compares with the
testimony fixed up against Beal in
Gastonia.
Coplan star witness, told an in
credible tale of seeing shooting
from a store window, at distance
of about 25 feet. He says he re-
mained in the store from 10 in the
morning till 3 in the afternoon,
when he heard the presence of
troopers at the meeting.
The witnesses are unimpressive,
confused and contradictive. They
cause derisive laughter even among
the hard-boiled capitalist reporters,
but the danger of conviction is
great.
A United Mine Worker official
of the Harnerville local took the
stand to help the electrocution of
this militant miner, AccOrsi. He
denounced the Cheswick meeting.
