Fascist Plots Against
Anti Fascists on Fake
Bomb" Plots i'm Paris

Paris dispatches Tuesday tell of
the arrest of three alleged anti-Fas-
cist Italians in Paris, the French
police evidently following the we'll
known American custom of "plant-
ing" dynamite, the home of one ar
rested man being said to have had
explosives in it.
The prisoners are newspaper men,
named Alberto Cianca, Giuseppe Sar-
belli and Alberto Parchiani. No
body can give any explanation just
what was supposed to be bombed"
by those arrested, and the whole af-
fair is undoubtedly part of the fas-
cist organization of Italians abroad
to victimize anti-fascists, get them
deported to Italy where they can
be quietly murdered by the Special
Tribunal.

TIE SMITH WITH
TAMMANY-
Tammany Split Rumor
in WHALE Case

1t is only through the dispute now
said to be raging between two fac
lions of the Tammany Hall organi-
cation for control of the rich plums
to be gathered in graft, that has
made possible the revelations of
close connections of Tammany mag
istrate Vitale with gangsters, it was
indicated yesterday.
WHALE is the fascist and bitter foe
of militant labor, whose party was
held up some weeks ago by seven
gangsters, and who later returned
gun to Tammany detective from
whom the stick-up men had taken
it.
In the Investigation" of the hold
up, further connections between Wit
ale and the gangsters seem to have
cropped up. Whales name was
found in the notebook of a dope
peddler named Saccarona, under the
headings of members frequently
called"
Now the process of making the
goat of Detective Johnson of the
Bronx and several men known to
have been connected with the gangs
tiers in proceeding before the Bronx
Grand Jury.
While Mrs. Grace SAVING, wife of
an underworld character named
"Zack" SAVING was being arrested,
and warrants were out for several
other minor underworld characters,
Giro Terranova, wealthy Italian
merchant, known as the "Artichoke
King" and supposed to have been
party to a murder contract which
resulted in the murder of two
gangsters, Frank Yale and Frank
NARROW, probably to hush them up,
stated that he was being made the
goat in a dispute between factions
of the Tammany machine for con-
troll of the city organization.
One faction, he said, was headed
by former Governor Smith and Ed
ward j. Flynn, Bronx leader, and
the other by Mayor Walker.
Thus, many workers who were
misled into thinking of AL Smith
as anything but an ordinary big
capitalist politician and willing tool
of the bosses, see Smith dragged
into a sordid mess-pot connecting
Smiths Tammany organization with
the same gangsters and thugs who
act as strikebreakers against the
workers.

Party. Russak and Hagelias were
arrested for "trespassing,' since
they were speaking from the rail
road embankment.
However, the police did not sue
coed in breaking up the meeting.
Manuel Perry, Youth Organizer of
the New Bedford district of the
n. I. w. U. jumped up on the en-
bankment and continued the meet
ing to successful conclusion.
Hagelias and Russak have been re-
leased on 5000 bail, and they will
come up for trial in the local court
tomorrow morning.
The attack on the workers in the
Beacon Mil is part Of a general
speed-up and wage cut drive that
is being prepared by the textile
bosses in all the New Bedford mills.
At its recent convention in Pater
son, the N. T. w. U. combined the
struggles of the Northern and
Southern workers and is now pre-
pared to lead the workers of the
Beacon Mill in New Bedford to-
gether with the workers in the Bea-
con branch mill in the south, which
is located near Asheville, N. c.,
not only in a fight against the
speed-up, but also in a fight for
higher wages and better conditions.
Regardless of what happens in
the court, the N. T. w. U. has called
a second mitigate meeting to take
place at noon tomorrow at the Bea-
con Mill. The district office of
the union has announced that an un-
compromising struggle against any
speed-up and wage cut will be con-
Quoted in the Beacon Mill and in all
other mills of this district.

SHOE WORKERS
WIN VICTORY
Court Forced to iv e
Up Injunction Plan

Effort to obtain an injunction
against the Independent Shoe Work
ers Union,, to "outlaw" any aid
directly or indirectly, to these strik-
ers by the union, failed in court
when Judge Callahan failed to grant
one.
The militanacy of the shoe work
ers and their declaration that they
would violate all injunctions the
court might issue convinced the au-
thorities that injuctions would not
defeat the shoe workers of force
the union to make any retreat in
the struggle, and that the courts
would only expose themselves more
openly as tools of the bosses.
The attack on the Independent
Shoe Workers Union is being con-
Quoted directly under direction of
the Department of Labor of the U.
is. government. "Conciliator" Wood
of the Department, in letter to
the shoe companies, definitely in
structed them to break their con-
tracts in an effort to destroy the
union.
Instead of being driven back to
work without union conditions, the
workers rallied more theoretically
to the union when the hand of the
government in the lockout became
obvious, and soon the courts were
convinced that injunctions could not
break the militant spirit of the
workers

Haiti Friends
Demand OuSting
OfU.S. Marines

At a conference of the Friends of
Haiti, held December 20, attended
by a large number of Negro work
ers, resolution against U. S. inn
perialist domination in Haiti was
passed.
Nine Haitians joined the Amer
lean Negro Labor Congress at this
conference. The resolution which
calls for the withdrawal of the
marines from Haiti, reads as fol-
lows:
Whereas, in 1901, the people of
Haiti, under the leadership of Tous-
saint LOuverture, Dessalines, and
Christophe, drove the combined ar
mics of, France and England to the
sea shore, and;
Whereas, U. S. marines in 1915,
without justifiable reasons landed
in Haiti, and killed thousands of
natives, and perpetrated innumer-
able intrusions upon the civil liber-
ties, and;
Whereas, on Dec. 6, 1929, in the
city of Aux Cages several hundred
Haitians were murdered and wound
ed by agents Of the Wall Street
Bankers;
"Be it resolved that we go on
record demanding the immediate
of the U. S. marines
from Haiti, and the return of all
and rights to the people
of Haiti prior to the occupation.

Strike Sentiment Gains: Union, Communist

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Dec 81.
The rising militancy of the New

of continuous wage cuts and low
