KILL 9 MINERS
IN GAS BLAST
Acknowledgment Due
to Company Neglect

YOLANDE, Alabama, May Is
A dust and gas explosion in the
Connerville mine of the Yolande
Coal and Coke Co. last night killed
nine workers, two of them Negro
miners, and severely burned two
more. The only other man in that
part of the mine escaped by climb
ing to the top. He was a pump
man.
The company is already arranging
an alibi for itself, claiming that it
sprinkled the mine, and that the
blast "must be due to an over
charge of dynamite" The fact that
flames swept through the entire
underground workings, burning
fiercely all night and hindering
rescue workers this morning, gives
the lie to the company's official
theory.
The killed are; Phil Green and
Allen Pearson, aged %, Negro
workers, and Mitchell Turner, %;

SCHACHT OFFERS
F|vE-p0|NT PLAN
Demand Return of R.R.
Stock from Allies

BERLIN, May 28.-J. P. Morgan
thru his agent. Owen D. Young, has
presented new plan of PREPARATIONS
payments, which provides, it is said
enough profit from the toll of the
workers, to satisfy even the Ger
man capitalists, after the Allies
have taken their share.
Schacht is now demanding that his
five-points of reservation be accept
ed. The fight now centers on these
points, In essence these five points
are made in order to leave room for
Germany to exploit the mailer CEN
trail European countrie-.
Also German delegates have de-
manded the return of some $780,
600, 900 worth of German state rail-
road bonds now in the hands of the
Allies as security. The Allies have
refused to ret I'm the bonds, although
they said they would consider them
as a second instead of first mort
gage and allow Germany to finance
up to $23S,OOo,0O0 investments in
railroads which would enjoy priority
over the bonds.
1t is rumored that the German
delegates, in return for the accept
ance of the five points, would be
willing to weaken relat: MS With the
Soviet Union.
Vigorous denial that Germany
was willing to pay higher repara-
tions than had been offered by
Schacht at the Paris conference was
made by Foreign Minister Strese-
mann today. Reports had been cir.
culated to the effect that he had
intimated as much to S. Parker Gil
bert, American imperialism's agent
general for reparations.
Contemplated bargains with the
British government for possession
Of German colonies seized by Britain
in the war is also reported. Strese-
mann, however, told the British am
bassador at Berlin that he had had

which Germany desires for her for

Hundreds of striking iron and

terday took part in mass demon
strations turnout the Longwood
Ave. section of the Bronx, where
many large shops, tied up in the
general strike of the New York iron
and bronze workers, are local :.
Among TIE larger shops where
picket demonstrations were held
were the Madison, Grand and Gross
man Iron Works. At the Madison
shop, bosses and their thugs at
tackled the pickets.
Two piclets were arrested at the
Grossman Iron Works, but even the
capitalist court had to admit that
there was no case against them and
was forced to release the st-..i-ers.
Thus far fifty strikers have been
arrested on the picket line, in less
than two weeks of the strike. In
this time over 5000 workers, most
of them unorganized before the
strike, have come out in the fight
for better wages and against bad
conditions.
The bosses attempt to recruit
scabs in thru the employment agen-
cies and capitalist papers has failed,

Union, leading the strike, yesterday
declared.
The Workers International Relief

The Uuion yesterday reported that
friction was developing among the
members of the bosses association,
many of the bosses wanting to yield
to the strikers, so effectively has

HORTHY
Fascist NEE
Labor to Demonstrate
in Buffalo

BUFFALO, May 28.-A demon
stration against the brutal terror of
the Horthy regime of Hungary will
take place tomorrow at Niagara
Square, opposite the hotel where
the Hungarian fascist in this coun-
try will begin their sessions Of the
"Horthy Parliament"
The Anti-Fascist Federation, the
Anti-Horthy League and the Com
munist Party in Buffalo is arrang-
ing the mass demonstration to coun-
teract the convention of the Ma
tional Hungarian Councils, which
started its sessions in Buffalo to-
day, at the Statler Hotel, the rich
est hotel in the city.
This convention is called for the
purpose of forming an all inclusive
Hungarian nationalist organization,
to consolidate all Hungarian forces
in this country in favor Of the Hor-
thy fascist regime. The Horthy
government, which, like the fascist
regime of Mussolini in Italy, de-
stroys the lives of hundreds of
workers, fortunes the proletarian
leaders in prisons. tries to destroy
the strong anti-Horthy sentiment
existing among the Hungarian
workers in the United States.
The onti Horthv movement is led
in this country by the Anti-Horihy
League, an organization of $4,000
members. The Anti-Horthy League
was represented at the international
Anti-Fascist Congress held in Ber-
lin on March and 10 by the former
prime minister of the hungarian
Republic, Count Michael Karolyi.
The Authority League is affill-
ated with the Anti-Fascist Fedora
ton Of this country.
