Fight Wage Cut; De-
mand Checkweighman

MOUNDSVILLE, West Va, Feb.
5.-Another mine is on strike near
here against the Paisle..- company's
wage cut, a cut which meets with
desperate opposition because of the
already low wages and swindlirfg in
weights by the operators. The Glen
dale mine was closed down this
morning, when it's 800 miners
walked out under the leadership of
the National Miners Union. Satur-
day the Alexander mine, with 400
workers, struck. This one, too, is
owned by the Paisley family, which
also owned the death trap at Valley
Camp, Pa, where many miners were
murdered in an explosion last year.
These deaths were caused by fore
ing the men underground in danger
Gus gas-filled workings.
The N.M.U. is leading the strikers
in both the Alexander and Glendale
mines in mass picketing twice daily,
although there is a standing injune-
ton against it. Charles Guynn and
fash are on the ground for the
NM.U.
The strikers demand seven cents
increase on tonnage, the right to
elect check weighman to see that
the robbery by underweight ceases,
recognition of the pit committee,
more safety regulations, no discrimi-
nation on account of age or color,
social insurance for unemployment,
etc.

Tahid at the Scene.
Tahid and one of his followers.
known as Small Abdul Gahni" were
seen outside of the lodging house
when the killers were doing their
work inside, and escaped with the
gunner when the police saved them
from pursuit by arresting the man
who chased them with a hammer
after they had emptied their pistols.
The men who actually did the
shooting are Abdul Jobbar, of Pat
erson, Abdul Gahni and Osman
Gahni, all of Tahid's gang of spies.
These have been positively identi-
fled by witnesses to the shooting,
and the police refuse to arrest them.
The reason for the shooting was
that one of the men in the room
at whom the first shots were fired,
but who escaped death by a clever
ruse, pretending to be shot, slipping
under the table, using it as a shield
when a final shot was fired at him,
is Abdul Valid. Wahid was one
Of the main objects of the attack
and was fired at first. He has been
for months very active in the union,
and organizing the East Indian
workers of Paterson into the local
international Labor Defense. The
LID, especially has been able to
expose and wreck the Matchmaking
and deportation schemes of Abdul
Tahid, not, however, until hundreds
Of Hindus were deported through
Che gangs activities.
Lawyer Connecting Link.
Abdul Tahid and his gang worked
IN conjunction with New York
lawyer, with an office on 42d ST.,
whose name is Taylor. Taylor seems
to have been the brains of the or
ganization, and their connecting
link with the United States officials.
Tahid, however, worked directly UNI
der the British consul, Paterson Hin

Tahid and his group operated by
Matchmaking Hindu workers out of
500 each on threats of deportation
II they did not pay After their ex-
posture and loss of influence, as the
Paterson Rindus began to rely on
the union and the LID. and defy
the spies, Taylor came over to Pat
erson and interviewed police Off
Gals, demanding mass deportations.
One Of the officials, N. Thomas, is
! known to have told Taylor to wait
until some real issue could be raised.
This was only a few days before the
murder.
Threat to Kill.
Tahid and Abdul Jobbar had a
quarrel some time ago, and Jobbar,
one OF Tahid's gang, was punished
by being arrested along with five
other N.T.W. East Indians. Jobbar
made threats to kill Abdul Valid,
and was soon released, evidently
through Tahid's influence, so that
he could actually kill Valid. job
bar was in the murder gang, Friday.
Six East Indian workers are now
"a all, waiting deportation. Among
them is Abdul Wahid. The British
government will kill him even if
Tahid's spies failed, unless the work.

ganization and protest.

SIS WEEKLY ENOUGH
FOR FOOD SAYS PROF:
UNEMPLOYED STARVE
U.S.. Dept. of Labor Admits Majority of En-
pl0yed Workers Don't Get Decent" Wage

Fifteen dollars a week should be
enough to feed workingclass families
f five in the metropolitan area of
New York according to Mrs. Ruetta
Day Blinks, home economist and
ane-time professor in Iowa State
College. Malnutrition and semi-srar-
ration, which is the lot of entire
antilles in New York, is due not so
much to undertaking as to +gnor-
ance of how to spend SIS a week
n proper food values, Mrs. Blinks
atated in an address before the edu-
national committee of the New York
State Federation of Women's Clubs
at the Grand Central Palace last
Saturday.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-02-04

Professor Blinks did not stop to
inquire whether the workers had the
fifteen dollars to allow for food
each week. She was convinced, how
ever, that they must become special
lists in making the most of their
poverty. In addition to shaving all
day for wage which even the U.
S. Department of Labor admitted is
below a decent" standard of living
for the majority of American work
ers-when they are lucky enough
not to be one of the six million out
of work in the country, the worker
should also train himself and his
family to live on as little as he can.
His chief difficulty is not how to
get the SIS, but how to spend it.

Deportation Menaces Hariuchi.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Feb. st.
Hariuchi, Japanese worker who
took prominent part in the strike
of agricultural workers in Imperial
Valley, has just returned from
Brawley. He is out on $500 bail,
put up by the International Labor
Defense. He will be tried in Braw-
ley Feb. 10 on a vagrancy charge,
and the next day will be up on a de-
portation charge. If deported to
Japan, he will undoubtedly be exc
cuted under the law against dan
gerous thoughts"

What Happened?
 The car on the west bound train was the regulation Pullman, with two compartments at each end.
 Two well-dressed men came into the car. The porter opened the cont partment for them and took thsr travelling bags. The compartmcat was next to the sections.
 One of the men was rat young, the other elderly. A finan- cial paper showed in the overco3t pocket of the older man. The1r luggage, of the expensive sort, ha l been subjected 10 considerable travel and bore many labels.
 While the porter was getting them in their compartment q small rather plainly dressed man came into the car. He shot a quick glance into the compartment as he came past the open door,
 Examining his slip to locate his scat he seemed rather disturbe j. The seat was against the comparS-
  two men, and facing forward.
 The nervous little man put his shabby black suitcase under the seat and looked rather apprchcn- s.vely at the young woman who sat facing him. reading d magazine.

 There was something queer in sending a friend to his lawyer in stead of having the lawyer come to him.
 The double mention of the ring in the note also created suspicion, and glance at the Queen of Dia- monds convinced Dickson that the marked card story was just q blind. No sharp would mark cards so crudely.
 The Queen of Diamonds meant something also, then. What?
