Summer Home, Auto

WILKES BARRE, Pa, May 20
Thugs supporting the corrupt adj
ministration of John Boylan, presi-
dent of District / of the United Mine
Workers, yesterday set fire to and
destroyed the summer home, not the
real mansion, of their equally cor
rupt rival for the right to exploit
and sell out the anthracite miners,
Rinaldo Cappellini, and did $4,000
damage, according to the chief of
police of Harvey's Lake, where cap
pellini had the house he erected on
the profits of his administration
recently ended in this district.
Loses Auto, Too.
A few weeks ago an incendiary
fire also destroyed garage on the
property of Cappellini in Plains,
Pa, and destroyed one of his high
priced automobiles, damaging an
other of them.
Cappellini wants somebody ar
rested for these fires, but does not
explain how he got such wealth,
while leading" the miners when he
was district president here.
Both Boylan and Cappellini are
deadly enemies of the miners real
union, the National Miners Union,
which is growing in the Anthracite.

concluded by the three organiza-

CLERKS WIN new
VITAL VICTORY
Clique Concocts Fake
Strike in Bronx

Following a brisk strike, lasting
one week, striking members of the
Grocery, Fruit and Butcher Work
ers' Union won a complete victory
yesterday when a boss at 366 New
Lots Ave, signed an agreement
with the organization.
The employer conceded all de-
mands to the workers, was forced to
discharge the scabs and the strik-
ers have returned to the job.
The victory was made possible in
spite Of the open and shameless
scabbing of the corrupt right wing
United Hebrew Trades. This gang,
for a price, provides bosses with
signs declaring: "This Place Not on
Strike" At the same time the
henchmen of the organization take
the lead in framing up militant
strikers on picket duty.
In the Halpern store, 1856 Girard
Ave-, Bronx, the union had for some
time had an agreement with the
boss. The right clique, worried
about the continued success of the
left wing workers organization,
concocted fake "strike" by the
simple device of hiring loafer, who
row 'pickets" the place. The union
is letting it be known that no strike
exists in the place, and should con-
temptuously ignore the strikebreak-
ing activities of the socialist gang
sters.

trying to chase them from the block.
In spite of this, the picketing con-
tinued through most of the noon
hour, and an observer reported to
the union that exactly eight custom
crs entered the cafeteria during this
time.
Of those arrested for participa-
ton in this mass picketing and dem
onstration against the injunction of
the United Restaurant Owners AS
sociation and the Willow Cafe
terias, Inc, prohibiting all strike ac-
tivities, five were sent to the work
house for ten days, which they took
rather than pay $50 fine.
30-Day Sentence.
One striker, Theodore Pappas, who
has been very active throughout the
strike, was sentenced to 80 days in
the workhouse by Magistrate George
Washington Simpson in the First
District Court. Pappas was accused
of shouting "To hell with the in
junction" The four who got the
Today sentence from Magistrate
Simpson were Mike Sadis, Artenis
Paraskova, Arthur Parginos and
William Krockosky. The other 10
day sentence was imposed by Magi-
strate John Flood in Jefferson Mar
ket Court on Harry Borak, who was
charged with booing the police and
refusing to leave the picket line.
Borak, one of those who will spend
ten days in Jail for picketing, was
badly beaten by the police. When
he appeared in court his eye was
black and his arms cut and swollen.
