struggle, making it extremely diff
cult for the social-fascists in the
Socialist" party to mislead the work
ers.
A United Press dispatch from Ber-
lin shows why the world bourgeoisie
is so apprehensixe over the results
of the German elections. They rec
ognize in it the tightening of class
forces and the bringing forward the
issue of "class against Glass; fas-
cism or a German Soviet Republic.
In this fight, the social-fascist ma
ture of the socialist" leaders is too
apt to come to the fore, for the con-
venience of the capitalists. "An anti
capital MARKHAM feeling in an un-
expectedly large part of the German
population was brought out in the
elections" says the U. P. cable.
Otto Braun, leader of the social
fascists, Premier of Prussia, has al
ready issued a statement promising
the imperialists that the Young Plan
would be protected and German capi-
talism supported to the last ditch by
the social-democratic lead er h p.
Braun said the socialists would
participate in "big coalition of
sensible groups" He tried to be-
little the Communist gains, and as
sured the parasites who profit from
the Young Plan that there is "no
menace to the republican constitu-
ton, the public safety or the for
eign policy"

AMERICAN OIL 30 SIS ACCUSES The

Presents Which Leguia Gave Him

from Washington that William
Randolph Hearst, expert forger of
documents against the Soviet
Union, has large interests in the
Peru mines where $1,000 workers

NEW YORK.-More proof that
the overthrow of the Wall Street
puppet, Leguia, in Peru was engi-
neered with the cooperation of
British imperialists is contained in
a statement by Warren c. Gra-
ham, president of the Graham En-
gineer ng Co., 67 Wall St., New
York, which has just been issued.
Graham's statement, which was
sent to the state department,
reads;
81 specifically charge English
oil interests with supplying the
financial backing to Cerro in his
overthrow of the Peruvian gov
ernment headed by Leguia. This
was done solely for the purpose
of preventing American interests,
through our company, obtaining
the oil monopoly of Peru for
thirty-two years.
"For more than a year these
EngIlSh interests nave been en-
deavoring to obtain this monop-
oily. They had every reason to
expect and believe tina. they
would obtain it until the entrance
into this field in Peru by the COM
pany of which l am president"
Of course, Graham and the
other U. s. imperialists in Peru
squak because Lequia had handed
them most of the oil lands, and
they fear that Cerro, in return for
British support will now swing the
pendulum the other way.

be cut off from the little bit Of un-
employment insurance they've been
getting, and that the workers who
work have to take wage-cut-all
of them.
So it goes. That's capitalist
management. That's it in Ger
many, where the fight is just be-
ginning over the question; Fascism
or Bolshevism? And don't be
fooled by any of the bunk you see
in the capitalist papers supposed to
show that the capitalists are
against" the fascists.
The German Communist Party
shows that the fake socialists" and
fascists are working together, help
ing each other against the German
workers. The Communist Party Of
Germany is a distasteful subject
for American capitalist papers.
Their editors don't like to talk
about it. But the Communists of
Germany are opening the CUTS of
German capitalism and the whole
capitalist world shivers.
American capitalists hate to
think about those 4,600,000 votes
the Communist Party of Germany
won in a democratic" election. We
want to remind you of them. We
want you to vote Communist here,
too. But voting Communist is but
a part of the fight. It's only a
way of telling the Communist
Party that you're ready to fight for
its program.
In Germany capitalism is so rot
ten, so fallen to pieces that the
question of the final fight for
power is become clear 1t is put
up to the workers of Germany this
way:
"Look at the world as capitalism
runs it, workers; The starvation,
the misery, the wars! And make up
your mind which you will fight for
because there are no 'neutrals.' Will
you fight for fascism or Bolshe-
vism? Will you make it a fascist
Germany or Soviet Germany, bound
with ties of unbreak, BILE steel TO the
Soviet Republic of Workers and Peas
ants?"
Really, that's a question workers
everywhere have to answer soon or
late. And one look at the way capi-
talism is running things makes the
Soviet Union seem a guiding star
for every worker in the world.

AS the situation now stands,
members have been robbed of
$146,000 by a league of supreme
court judges, Tammany leaders, the
police and labor leaders. One hun
dred and forty-six thousand dollars
is a lot of money for cab drivers
who must freeze in winter, steam
in the summer and dispute with
brutalized cops always, to earn
from $25 to $40 week. What are
they going to do about it?
These cab drivers must learn
sooner or later that the only wea-
pom at their command to fight their

to join the Trade Union Unity

Coal Bosses Police
Try to Intinlidate the
Militant Mine Workers

WEST FRANKFORT, Ill.-Po-
Ice of this mining town in their
desperation lost their heads in be-
coming open murderers of militant
mine workers. The actual evil
dence of this is the following in
cident:

chine SO close as to nearly touch
it. Finally the police from the
big machine ordered the driver
of the little car to stop. The little
machine stopped as did the big

Police Thugs.
Three policemen from their cal
came out and with clubs in their
hands ordered the three men from
the little car to step out. When
reached the scene one of the po'
lice was searching the little Ford
The other 2 police were question
ing and threatening the two mer

later the two men were two mine
workers-Louis Joick from Orient
and driver of the Ford and An
drew Simenoff from here. Also
there was a young fellow by the
name of Harry Rice, as l under.
stand, an organizer of the Young
Communist League).
Threaten Miners.
A tall policeman, namely, Johr
Wheary, cursed and threatened
Joich with the following remarks
"You dirty red-neck son of. . .
What are you trying to do? You
know that we arrested you re-
Gently. l tell you that you will
get bumped off one of these
days"
The other policeman, namely
John McRunels, cursed Simeonoff
with the remarks: "How much did
you tell and talk to those miners
at that mine. You deserve that
chunk of coal to kill you"
Workers Will Fight Back.
The third policeman namely
George Hipper, turned down
everything in the car. He will
make a good rat dog
The police took three magazines
from these miners. The maga-
zines contain the actual pictures
of industrial construction in the
Soviet Union. And that is
enough to cause headaches to
world imperialists and their dogs,
namely, the police.

in much the same manner that

The Strange" Injunction.
The audit committee then called
a meeting of the entire organiza-
tion for Sept. 2, at 81 E. 4th st.
One hour before the meeting was
to be called to order, the members
were served with an injunction
signed by Supreme Court Justice
Dyke, restraining them from hold
ing the meeting.
The arrogance of the Tammany
courts didn't stop there. When
the members, restrained by the in
junction from holding a business
meeting, adjourned to a hall across
the street to talk over the situa-
ton, Mike Donella, who led the
demand for the ousting Of the
crooked officers, was adjudged in
contempt of court for violating the
injunction!
Another meeting was called for
Sept. s. Again the gorillas packed
the meeting. More than 150 of
them were stationed around the
entrance to Teutonia Hall, in the
hallway leading to the meeting
room itself. The meeting had been
called for 7 o'clock, the officers
knowing that the cab drivers
waved, hesitate to lose the profit
able supper hour trade by leaving
their cars idle at that time.
Nevertheless, almost all the
members made it their business to

pleted a perfect job. The motion
to oust the officers had never been
! voted upon, thanks to the turmoil
created by The gunmen when it was
presented.
The finishing touch to the hold
up occurred when one of the ac-
countants asked Putnam for the
difference between the $1,000 in
the associations bank account and
the $4,000 that the books declared
was the surplus remaining in the
treasury. Putnam answered that
the $4,000 were in a bank under
his own name and that he intended
that the little nest egg remain
| there.
Officers Hire $50 Gunmen
An auditing committee elected by
the members then recommended
that all the officers, except Don
nella and the secretary, be tried
for malfeasance of office. 1t was
decided to bring up the charges at
meeting to be held on August
When the members arrived at
the appointed hour they saw about
$50 new faces-hard, brutalized
faces-gathered in front of the
hall, almost surrounding the Off
GERS who were to be formally ac-
cused that night of being the most
vicious form of crooks. The $50
guests were gunmen and strong
arm men, hired by the accused
officials to prevent by force if
necessary-and it was necessary
the passing of the resolution call
ing for action against the officials.
No resolution was passed that
night and no other business was
transacted; the "gorillas" created
so much disorder that the meeting
ended in an uproa.
The audit committee thereupon
went to the office of the state
attorney general and lodged a COM
plant against the officers and
trustees. sst. Atty. Gen. Broulard,
81 Chambers St., then called a
hearing to take testimony. A
weeks postponement was re-
quested by Edward O'Brien, attor-
ney for the accused officials, and
he got it. Considering O'Brien's
career, that wasn't in the least
surprising. O'Brien was formerly
district leader in the Bronx-in

ter of fact, that is now the

O'Brien' Gets Fake Order.
O'Brien appeared at the hearing
week later, but not with the re-
quired affidavits. In its place he
had SHOW cause" order signed
by none other than Supreme Court
Justice McGeehan, who when pros
ecutor, tried so hard to convict
Grfeco and Garlic, aud a close
friend of O'Brien's. The burden
Of proof now lay on the members
who had been robbed of their
$4,000. 1t was discovered later
that O'Bricn didn't even have a
technical right to the show cause
order because the section under
which the action was brought
didn't justify it.

Cleveland. Ohio.
To the Daily WORKER
Since the existence of the asso-
ciated charities of Cleveland, they
collected by force and other trick
cry about s2O,000,000 to be used
for charitable" work. During this
eight or nine-year period they prac-
ticed they divided the money among
the churches to provide shelter to
the unfortunate.
We never heard of a penny
being given by any of the churches
to any of the unfortunate workers
(jobless and starying) out on the
streets and sleeping in the parks.
But we see that every religious
parasite has a beautiful mansion.
The total value of the entire church
properties would amount to about
1000 million dollars.
During 1929, when there was no
unemployed to the extent of 9,000,-
900 people, the Cleveland workers
contributed 41-2 million dollars.
In 1880, because of the wholesale
starvation on hand, the goal was
set for 41-4 million dollars. Set
ting the goal of s250,000 less than
the year before shows the hypocrisy
of said institution, because they
clearly know that they could spend
for the needy people 20 times as
much as in any of the previous
years.
Even rich hospitals are patron
izeed by the charities, and the Y.
M. c. A., the Y. W. C. A, the K.

organizations. Neither of these or
CARNATIONS offered shelter, not

INSTALLMENT II
Through the Jungle

With the speed of a trained
athlete John Northington
cleared the space of black
mud lying between him and
the thick tropical under
growth. A second leap and
he was bending over the
moaning girl. An arrow was
imbedded in the soft flesh of
her arm.
With a single movement, he flung
her to his shoulder and tore at the
arrow. 1t was barbed. In spite OF
her Stifled moan of pain at the re-
sistant pull against her lacerated
flesh, John Northington breathed q
sigh of relief. A barbed dart was not
a poisoned one. There was time for
attention to that later. e could give
most of his attention to flight now.
A single fleeting glance at the girl
whose body suddenly Sagged against
him told him that she had tainted
from the pain. He was glad. The
problem was simplified still further
by this Inconsistencies. He did DOT
need to have the task made mee
difficult by her involuntary groans OF
pain.
Behind him the cultural cries were
confused and excited. They were de-
batting among themselves. 1t gave
him the moment of time he needed
to get his bearing. Inside the forest
the darkness had already fallen. The
night dangers of the jungle gave
pause to even those hardy pursuers
behind him.
Death lurked everywhere in that
black wilderness of poisonous growth
and savage animal and reptile life.
But something worse than death
lay behind, not for him, but for the
girl, Dolores Ramirez, betrothed of his
friend and classmate, Ramon Montez,
in whose service he had dared the
dangers through which he had al
ready passed, and was still passing.

into The black darkness OF the forest
Something brushed against his face
1t was cold and clammy. A sudden
scattering of leaves followed the
eerie touch. A slithering lizard drop
ped heavily onto the path behind
him.
Somewhere above him, monkeys set
up a terrible jangle of chattering. A
panther cat screamed far off in the
night.
John Northington paused, listening.
The girl on his shoulner lay limp. He
could feel the warm smearing of ozz-
ing blood against his neck where her
wounded arm hung Imply.
He raised his free arm to wipe the
dripping sweat from his forehead. 1t
brushed against a swinging vine. DeS-
peration seized him. There was no
need trying to penetrate any deeper
into this dense blacknesS. Overhead
the tangled roof of greenery shut out
every faint ray of light. No stray
CLEAN from moo or star would pene-
trate here.
A sudden inspiration came to him.
Laying hold of the heavy, arm-sized
tendril of tough vine, he felt about
with his foot until it caught IN the
convolutions just above the ground.
Slowly, laboriously, Tending the still
unconscious girl as best he could with
his own body bent over her, he began
a cropping climb.
He knew that in the matted upper
reaches of vine and tree he could find
a temporary resting place. That it
might be already occupied by more
dangerous foes, he knew; but the
chance must be taken.
There was nc question that the up
per reaches of the tree were safer
than the infested earth. No enemy
could be crueller than those gray
robed priests of the Black Lily, when
baked of their prey, as he knew that
this flight of the Chosen Bride of the
annual feast, had baked them.
once, as he made his way upward,
a big bat, dislodged from his hold,
struck blindly with mis- wing against
the face of the girl. She groaned and
moved. He knew that he must stop
soon, for the girl, once conscious,
would be in horrible pain. Feeling
about him with feet and free hand,
he discovered g sort of matted net
work that would bear their combined
weight.
He scrambled gropingly into the
swaying platform of vine and twig
and settled himself as comfortably as
possible holding the girls body close.

away from him. The arrow had been
torn out in the ascent and the gaping
wound was bleeding anew.
