curity. Issuance
Nov. 22-H

WASHINGTON. Nov. PIP
Fred I. Kent. director OF the
Bankers Trust company OF New
YORK. reiterated today before the
senate lobby committee the action
of the senate coalition on the tariff
bill was partially responsible for
the recent stock market disturbance.
He said he had been correctly
quoted in q recent speech holding
the senate coalition partially re-
sponsible for the stock market de-
cline. but he added that was only
one OF the causes named.
Other reasons for the fall III stock
prices, tie witness said, were the
increased issuance Of new securities
during 1929. the increase in brok-
er's loans and an increase in the
capital tax.
Senator Glass, democrat, Virgin
La, former secretary OF the treasury,
who is not a member OF the lobby
committee, asked Kent II he omit
ted to say 30 percent Of the trans
actions on the stock exchange were
as much gambling as bets on a
roulette wheel"

little TO do with H." the banker re-
piled.

Greetings to Southern Mill Strikers!

it may move forward rapidly to complete victory.
Their coming be looked upon as just another
cident in the class That would be grave derestma

rapid change in the major features OF the class struggle
throughout the nation especially the rising of working

of the whole working class.

of the United Textile Workers Union affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor reaction should be meeting
in New York City the day the arrival of these
strikers discussing the best of wrecng the courage

COURT ACTS CONTINUE
REACTION IN COLOMBIA

BOGOTA, Colombia, April II. =
The repression Of the Colombian
labor movement after the massacre
of the strikers in the banana region
in which 200 workers were killed
and hundreds arrested, continues by
the action of the courts in spite of
the fact that the state of siege has
been lifted in several districts.
To the many members of trade
unions convicted by courts martial
have been added those convicted by
the special courts established "for
the supervision of the press and
public order"
Among those convicted recently by
court martial is Alberto r. Castril-
Ion, one of the leaders of the strike
in the banana region and of the
Socialist Revolutionary Party (mem-
Der of the Comintern) of Colombia.
Castrillon was sentenced to "a years
penal servitude.
Among the labor leaders impris-
oned as a result Of the strike were
two women. Maria Cano and Maria
Rico de Tobon, who were among
the most active in the Communist
movement Of Colombia. They were
accused Of conspiracy against the
state"
In order to make out heavier and
longer penalties against the trade
unionists, the police discovered"
several hundred bombs, 80 bombs
in one city, alone, none Of which

ever exploded. All these bombs
were discovered" by the police in
deserted or uninhabited places and
the arrests which followed in con-
nection with these discoveries were
made among all opponents of the
present government.
The conservative party came to
power in 1921 and the term of the
present congress and president ex-
pires next year. The preparations
for the election campaign have al
ready started and as the dissatis-
faction in the whole country is very
great and the victory of the liberals
in the coming elections possible, the
conservative government arrested
all the prominent leaders of the lib
raj party, among them the president
of the party and its probable presi-
Dental candidate, General Cuberos
Nino, whom the government accuses
of being participant in the "Com-
munist bomb" plot against the gov
eminent.
Four Communists, Tomas Tribe
Marquee, Ezequiel Campos, Ernesto
Rico and Enriqueta Jimenez, ar
rested previously, are accused Of
having manufactured and "circu-
lated" these bombs.
General Cuberas Nino will prob
ably be convicted, together with the
Communists, to one to three years
of prison, which will eliminate him
from the presidential campaign.
