St. LOUIS, Oct. l6.-Predicting
that homeseeker traffic into the
Valley will increase materially this
fall and winter. c. w. Strain, pas
senger traffic manager Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific Lines, Houston, an
nounced today that al agreement
had been reached whereby parties
Of five or more from Indiana, Ohio,
Illinois n Michigan may purchase
round trip rates to the Rio Grande
section for one fare plus TWO dol
lars.
IN the past such fares have been
offered only from St. Louis, and
Kansas City. but as a result OF
increased interest in the Magic
Valley, an agreement was reached
by Mr.. Strain with the officials OF
the Central Passenger Association
putting the new rates into effect.
Tickets viii be sold twice weekly.
Missouri Pacific officials have
been ~contendi-g for such a rate
for sometime. The rate direct
" aids land developers and land
statesmen by allowing them 10 bring
smaller parties to the Valley.
This Is not The result Of the re-
cent move b. Valley chambers Of
commerce to persuade the various
railroads 70 place low winter ex-
cursion rates into effect during
January, February and March. rates
similar to those offered to Califor-
mia and New York.
Action will be taken upon this
matter immediately. and it Is hoped
that the Missouri Pacific. Southern
Pacific and the NJ. K. and T. Lines
will each offer low rates as an
inducement 20 travellers 10 visit
the Rio Grande Valley. These rates.

and not for parties Of five o. more.
The Brownsville Chamber OF Com
merce met last week 70 discuss the
matter, and the secretary was au-
thorized TO invite officials OF the
Southern and Missouri Pacific rail-
roads to meet here for some time
next week with a committee Of
local citizens to discuss the matter
thoroughly. Each Valley chamber Of
commerce secretary agreed Tuesday
night to place the matter before his
board OF directors.

The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-04-22

DETROIT, Mich.-Yes, the po-
lice dispersed the crowd of jobless
workers. Why? Why don't the
capitalist press come clean and tell
the truth about this fight? Why?
Because they want the workers al
ways to be blamed for everything
that even they themselves create.
The truth about this fight is not
at all the same as the bosses
agents say that it is.
In regard to the tear gas and
the sticks, that is no rumor; that
is an actual fact. AS for the men
becoming unruly, well, who would
MT become unruly if one came to
seek a job and those brave Ford
service men tried to club the work
ers because some of them dared to
make bit of fire in the yard.
Such "un-uliness" began and the
workers didn't stand for that kind
of bull, retaiiated to the challenge
of the service men. When the
service men seen that they were
unable to stOb the jobless from
making bit Of fire to warm them
selves after standing in the line
waiting for ghost of a chance to
get a job all night, the service men
calls the police.
Well, here is where the real
battle began when the coppers ar
rived; they thought that they
would scare the workers by show
ing their famous weapon, the club.

in resisting an assault depends not
On actual necessity but reasonable
apprehension.
The first trial came to sudden
end when the prosecution wheeled
a dummy of the dead chief of police
into the courtroom, causing one of
the jurors to go insane.
Originally sixteen strikers and
organizers, including Sophie Melvin,
Amy Schechter and Vera Bush,
were indicted for murder in the
first degree and faced death in the
electric chair. The second trial saw
the charges against all but seven
dropped and the charges against
these reduced to second degree muir
der. The resulting convictions
brought sentences for the seven,
totalling 1T years Imprisonment.

When the Jobless Revolted at Ford's
(By a Worker Correspondent

That is one mistake that the po-
lice made and it did not take them
very long to find out. AS the po-
lice heroes" began to dispense the
s. workers they very soon found out
that the workers are not quite so
dumb as they called them in the
beginning.
The workers, when they saw
that the brave police were using
their clubs they became very mill
liant and gave the police very
good sample of their own medi-
cine. In less than a minute the
'j0bless started to throw anything
that they were able to lay their
hands on. at those very brave po-
lice.
Well, the workers continued to
throw rocks, old rubbers, tin pals
and bricks at the cops. The cops
tried to arrest couple of jobless.
Believe meN they had to change
their minds very damn quick, for
the workers did not stand to see
their comrades mishandled. They
showed a very militant spirit and
did not allow the cops to take the
comrades to the cell, but fought
and released them from the cops
Seeing the situation, the cops
rushed to the employment office
to call more cops. Then the work
ers broke windows in the office.
Next step to May Day.
