Hoover Support to

Is Shown by Letter

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-More
revelations of Hoover's close con-
nections with grating lobbyists was
brought out today in connection with
the big power trusts Muscle Shoals
grab. 1t was recently revealed that
Chief Justice Hughes of the Su-

Cyanamide Co., which is taking over
the Muscle Shoals project.
A letter from Colonel w. Worth
ington, head of the Muscle Shoals
lobby, to Claudius II. Huston, chair
man of the Republican National
Committee, reveals that Hoover,
when he was secretary of commerce,
worked together with the big power
trusts. The letter says, in part:
Perhaps | had better explain a
little more in detail to you that
told John H. Bankhead that you and
l in the fall of 1925 did our utmost
to bring the power and chemical
groups together, and we made dis

to him that you, along with Mr..
Hoover, even undertook to bring
these together through Mr.. Owen

LONDON, Feb. 19.-The race-for-

that the vacation will last much

Musteite New Union
Is Trick of Bosses

The National Executive Board of
the Trade Union Unity League in
the course of its three day session
ended Monday adopted the following
statement, warning the coal miners
Of the trickery in the Fishwick pro-
posal for a new union under the
leadership of the Illinois Coal min

circumstances.
"The National Executive Board of
the Trade Union Unity League
warns the coal miners against the
proposed National Convention on
March 10 in Springfield, Illinois,
which has been called by the Fish
wick officialdom of District II,
United Mine Workers of America.
This is the latest scheme of these
notorious tools of the coal operators
to confuse the miners and to hamper
the growth of the National Miners
Union. 1t is an attempt to company
unionize the miners, so that the OPP
orators may have a still freer hand
to go through with their plans of
intensified exploitation Of the work.

"This convention is put forward in
the guise of progressiveness, of a
fight for effective unionism. But the
utter hypocrisy Of this pretense is
clear when it is seen who is behind
the movement. Fishwick is simply
the falseface for harrington, ex-
president of District IL, who was
fired from the union for accepting
$4,000 per year graft from the Pea
body Coal Co. Fishwick is the agent
of the Illinois coal operators. The
struggle between him and John L..

mass meeting March 16, called as a
counter demonstration against the
prayer services announced for that

The protest meeting will start at

Committee on Religious Rights and

Landy, secretary of the Friends of

"This is only another step in the
holy crusade against Soviet Russia,
crusade backed by organized capt.

capital. All this is preliminary
propaganda for war. Nearly Is
years ago the masses of this country
were led into a war for the greater
profit of Wall Street, under the
sanctimonious slogan of making the
world safe for democracy But this
slogan has been shot so full Of holes
that it can no longer fool anybody,
so the imperialists of the world are
busy melting lynch fever under a
new slogan: Save the prosecuted
Christians, Jews and Mohammedans
from the Bolshevik heathenv We

BULLETIN.

The Standard Oil Co. of n. j.,
is trying to escape the blame for
its murder of IL workers in the
alcohol plant explosion Tuesday,
by putting the blame for leak
ing gas pipe on "some disgruntled
worker who kicked the pipe and
broke it." Thus, a frame-up of
4, some worker to whitewash the
company seems in the offing.
Standard oil thugs armed with
clubs and guns are surrounding
the wire-enclosed plant.
ELIZABETH, N. j., Feb. 49,
The Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey
stands guilty of the murder of IL
and probably more workers. A gas
pipe-worn to shell-this was the
Standards instrument of murder.
This is the verdict of scores of
workers at the huge $500 acre Bay
way Refinery of the Standard Oil
Besides the murder of the workers
whose lives were snuffed out in the
explosion Tuesday afternoon at the
alcohol plant of the Standard Oil in
Linden, the Standard Oil Com
pany's greed for more and
more profits means that scores of
workers face misery in total blind
ness for the remainder of their lives.
At least 100 received minor injuries.
The Standard Oil Co. has been
laying off workers by the thousands
in its New Jersey refineries, speed
ing up those who remained to the
extreme limit. In its fierce speedup,
workers state, the Standard Oil has
constantly neglected to make re-
pairs on leaking pipes which seri-
ously endangered the workers lives.
Workers at the Standard Oil
plants who had been laid off in re-
cent months stated that only organ
ization of both the employed and
unemployed oil workers together
could bring about better conditions
and wages, the end of the speedup,
and of such slaughters as Tuesdays.

ATHENS, Greece, Feb. 19.-Hope

against the Soviet Union was ex.

of Athens, head of the Orthodox
Church in Greece.
This religious dopester announced
that he had appealed to the imperi-
alist League of Nations for an at
tack on the Soviet Union.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Know-
ing the willingness of American i'm
perialism to attack the Soviet Union
on the least excuse, religious dope
sters have sent protests to the U. S
State Department against so-called
religious prosecutions in the U. s.
S. r.
Acting secretary of state Cotton,
who takes the same view towards
the workers republic as his master,
Henry l.. Stimson, said today he has
not made any decision regarding the
action of his department, but he
would make the protests public later
today.
The forces of reaction throughout
the world are supporting the war
plans of the imperialists against the
Soviet Union. Because the Ameri-
can imperialist government has
shown its desire for war on the So
Wet Union, through Stimson's Man
churian note, and the ordering of
the break between Mexico and
the U.S.S.R., the religious dopesters
in this country are adding fuel to
the flames by deliberately urging
on intervention against the Union
of Socialist Soviet Republics.

The press Of the Nation is responsible

In the last six months publishers

less than $150,000, 900.
THE press in this matter has rem
dered a great public service" he con-

the advertising columns of publications
will be practically free of that class Of
advertisements that are plainly false
upon their face.
But whether it takes a year or 10
years, or however long it may take,
the fight Is going to continue until
these takers and crooks and scoundrels
who live by robbing the unwary and
unfortunate are put out of business In
this undertaking we have the support
of every honest publisher in America.
We have the support of every honest

Commissioner Humphrey urged mem

the Federal Trade Commission any

may see.
