OPERATOR KILLED

SHERIFF OF BIG HORN COUNTY
FINDS PARTLY BURNED BODY
OF MOONSHINER

Sheriff Claude ID. Wham recently
returned from the Decker section,
where he was called by a report hat
a man had been burned to death
when an Illicit still he was operating
exploded. Information had been
furnished the sheriff's office by
Dominic Carb0ni, a farmer.
Arriving at the Carboni farm, with
Mr.. Carboni and another man, the
sheriff went to the site OF the still on
Leaf Rock creek, about 20 miles north
east of Decker postofflce. There they
found a dugout about 20 by 40 feet
in size. The roof had fallen in as
the result of a fire, which had burned
practically all woodwork Of the room.
Search disclosed the body of a man
with one arm and one leg burned of.
The body was lying, partly buried by
dirt which had caved from walls under
a window at the far end OF the dug
out. Two stills, one of 100 and the
other of 200 gallons capacity, were
near the only door. One of the stills
had evidently exploded and apparently
the man, believed to be Vito Carona, %,
attempted to escape from the burning
structure by way Of the window, the
door being blocked by flames, and had
suffocated from fumes, either dying
from s~uffocation or being burned to
death.
In the dugout were found, partly
burned, So barrels and kegs containing
mash and other containers, with sugar,
yeast and other ingredients. Just out
side the door on a platform stood II
barrels of gasoline, evidently used Tor
fuel, iron barrels OF which had been
warped by the intense heat but which
had not exploded.
Sheriff Wham went to Sheridan and
interviewed Carona's 17-year-Old wife,
whom he married five months ago, but
she knew nothing of his occupation
further than that he was employed on
a farm and had been away from home
for several days. He was last seen by
neighbOrs at the dugOut. The body
was taken to Sheridan for burial.

Two days later the expedition moved

the marchers near Canyon creek, when
he proceeded with them until camp
was made at the site of the Pillar.
Realizing that he could not make good

Frank Spector, Communist Party
section organizer. sentenced to az
years on the Imperial Valley Grim

flying in his own defense, in the
present case.
The prosecutor demanded, in 9
loud and ringing voice, and in ar
obvious attempt to still further
prejudice the already prejudicet
jury, if Spector "was not felon.'
Spector answered just as loudly:
"No, ! do not recognize any convic'
ton of the capitalist courts. The
working class does not recognize the
sentence in the Imperialist Valley
trial."

Chinese Red Peasants Groups Grow

SHANGHAI (IPS).-The peasant
league in the provinces on the East

province of Kwantung are steadily
increasing their activity according to
reliable reports here. The peasant
leagues in the districts of Tsiochow
and Meikang have over 100000
members. The peasant council in
Haifung has 100000 organized peas
ants behind it. In the neighboring
districts there are peasants associ-

areas the peasant organizations
have been developed into fighting
organizations.
The organization of the peasant
women in the east of the Kwantung
province is proceeding satisfactorily.
Peasant women are beginning to
take part in the peasant mass meet
ings. There have even been cases
