Osborn Monnett Of Chicago ma
tionally known smoke abatement
technical expert, has started a sur
vey in Indianapolis to precede in
tensive SMOKE abatement work in
this city during the next two years.
Contingent upon raising of a
fund of $4,000 for two years OF
smoke abatement work here, Mon
nett probably will be employed by
the indianapolis Smoke Abatement
League as its chief technical en-
gineer for the two-year campaign.
He was appointed chief smoke
inspector of the city of Chicago in
1911 and over a four-year period
was instrumental in formulating a
code of requirements for boiler set
tings which has been copied widely
in various cities. He has aided in
educational smoke abatement cam
paigns in Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Gin
cinnati, Minneapolis and other
cities. At Salt Lake City he aided
in the campaign which reduced
smoke 95 per cent in five years.
Recently he completed a survey
for the city of Memphis, Tenn, and
has engaged in three-year cam
paign at st. Louis, Mo, where a
fund of $25O,000 for smoke abatc-
ment was raised and reduction OF
IS per cent was achieved in smoke
during the three years.

Ohio Police Chief Quits

Drastic Order.

BIZ United Press
DOVER, o.. May 26.-William E.
Byers, 81. police chief here since
1924, resigned Sunday rather than
carry out orders of Mayor w. r
Stucky to use tear gas bombs, if
necessary, to open the projection
room of the Bexley theater, which
allegedly was operating in violation
of the Sunday anti-motion picture
law.
Mayor STICKY accepted Byers'
resignation Immediately and ap-
pointed Frank II. Javens as his sue
cessor. A few moments later Javens
and two policemen entered the the
ater, removed the projection room
doors and arrested the projectionist
who had locked himself in. He then
arrested the theater manager and
four assistants.
-Four Are Arrested
They were:
William E. Burton, manager; Will
liam E. Fender, operator; Glenn
Hitler, usher; oscar Altman, ticket
taker. They pleaded guilty and
we're ordered held for grand jury
action under $500 bond each. Rob-
CRIT Blackenhorn, assistant man
ager; Raymond G. Camp, operator,
and Mrs. Martha Joyce, cashier,
we're scheduled for arraignment to-
day.
Protests Harsh Action
Although the theater had been
giving Sunday performances for
the past ten weeks without inter-
ference, STICKY Sunday afternoon
called his chief into his Office and
ordered him to break up the pro-
gram and place the management
and employees under arrest. The
mayor commanded Byers to cast
tear bombs into the theater as a
means of carrying out the order.
Byers protested and when the
mayor reiterated his command, the
CHEF resigned.
Two years ago a grand jury re-
fused to take any action against
theater owners who violated the
Sunday closing law.

terests. Many electrical workers as well as
building trades workers of other crafts, are
now fully convinced that only the Communist
Party, the political party of the working class,
and the Trade Union Unity League, the new
revolutionary trade union center, can and do
represent the interests of tn working class
This understanding the part of thousands
of discontented workers is serious menace
to the fake leadership of the machine in

Until six months ago, the membership of

officers used all sorts of excuses in order not

Jobless Jam Streets.
With the slump in building construction and
the resulting unemployment therefrom, unem-
ployed electrical workers jammed the outside
entrance of the local headquarters on 18th St.
and Irving Place, to degree that actually OBJ
structed street traffic.
The continued assemblage of large groups
of workers caused the officials of the union to
apply to the police for help in dispensing the
unemployed workers from the headquarters of
the local.
When the unemployed workers approached
the president, Wilson, and spoke to him about
this situation, that worthy merely answered
that little exercise in the form of walking
would do them good and that they, the unem-
ployed workers, had no business congregating
in front of the local headquarters.
The broadening line of unemployed workers
soon compelled the machine in the union to
furnish these workers a day ROOM Many
electrical workers out of work for a period
of six months and longer, wives and children
starving, appear there daily with the hope of
possibly obtaining job. This hope is rapidly
vanishing. Only friends of the corrupt ma
chine are successful in obtaining the few

Protest Treatment

MACON, Ga, June 11.-That a
section of the capitalist class of
Georgia is not quite ready to resort
to open fascist death threats against
the six Atlanta workers now held
on "insurrection" death cahrges is
shown in an editorial in the Macon
Telegraph.
Afraid of the rising anger of the
workers throughout the country, the
Telegraph warns the textile barons,
that the pressing of the charges
will mean leap forward in the
organization of the Negro and white
workers. The Telegraph maintains
that the crudeness and the violently
terroristic methods will be too much
for the southern workers and calls
for more finese and skillful frame
up methods in fighting the Com
munist and revolutionary trade un-
ion movements.

Can't Even Discuss.
Thus any workers daring to bring the issue
of unemployment to the membership will be
secretly tried and expelled without even as
much as allowing the membership of any local
to. discuss the issues involved. This scheme
is also part of plan to carry into action the
promise made to President Hoover a few
months ago, by William Green, president of
the A. +. L., that the American Federation
of Labor would in future further intensity its
activity in the direction of preventing the
workers from fighting for better conditions
and higher wages. This scheme also proves
that the officials of Local 8 O.B.E.W., as we'll
as A. F. l.. takers generally, are the open and
active agents of the capitalist class.
In Local 9, LB.E.W., New York, the Off
cials of that union absolutely refuse to do
anything that may tend to alleviate the suf-
fering of the unemployed electrical workers
and their families. Drawing a weekly salary
of Sl25, supplied with automobiles at the ex-
pense of the membership and receiving va
cation of two weeks with full pay (while thou
sands of workers are unemployed) has given
these labor takers a boss psychology and
boss contempt for all workers.

Taking this position, we are op-

Peddley Turns Shoemaker
and PobagamdlSt OF Ideals

In putting Gorky's old story to
new uses Petrov-Bytov, the director
of Gain and Artem," made some
radical changes both in the plot and
the delineation of character. The
Jewish peddler, Cain, has been
turned into a shoemaker and propa-
gandist of revolutionary ideas. The
longshoreman, Artem, is shown as
crude but not vicious man who
in the end is won over by the gentle
and persuasive Cain. While to an
outsider this may appear as doing
violence to Gorky's story, Gorky
himself would probably be the last
one to object to the change.
The message intended by Gorky
in Cain and Artem" may still ap-
ply in some measure to the present
realities in Russia, but the new
forms of life surely demand new
kind of denuement in the conflict
between Cain and Artem, between
the oppressed Jew and the ignorant
peasant.
Just because it is still important
to counteract the remnants of anti
semitic sentiment among the Rus
sian masses, this film, as social
message, would have failed Of its
purpose if it had not been made to
fit the contemporary Soviet life. 1t
is well that Cain the peddler has
turned shoemaker, and it is well that
Artem was made to see the light.
The change in social conditions and
in moral values warrants such alter
ations of plot and character, and
the scenarist and director who
sinned against the letter of Gorky
remained true to his spirit.
The American premiere showing
of the screen version of Maxim Cor
ky's soul-stirring novel, Cain and
Artem," is the screen attraction at
the Cameo Theatre. This forceful
Characterization was produced by
Sovkino of Moscow.

their jobs to make room for men known to be
friends to the administration.
Such tactics and the fact that the Interna-
tional officials as we'll as the local machine
in New York do nothing to lessen the suffer-
ing resulting from unemployment, are grad
ually winning the electrical workers as we'll
as the building trades workers of other crafts
away from the A.F.L takers and over to the
demands and program of the Trade Union
Unity League.
In spite of the fact that there are approx
mately 10000 to $4,000 unorganized altera-
tion electrical workers in Greater New York,
the officials of Local 3, including Broach, the
International president, have not raised
finger towards organizing these workers. To
prevent the workers from joining the union
they have raised the initiation fee to $500 with
the prospects of raising it still higher
Many electrical workers who through their
past experiences with the A. F. L. have be-
come convinced that Local 3, LB.E.W., will
not organize them have joined the Building
Trades and Construction Workers Section of
the Trade Union Unity League
The Trade Union Unity League exposes the
takers in the A. F. L. building trades unions
fights for the seven-hour day and fights for
the organization of the unorganized. The
Trade Union Unity League organizes the un-
employed workers into Unemployed Councils
and together with the employed workers leads
the struggle for "Work or Wages"
The T. U. U. L. is now conducting drive
for $4,000 new members, and is building in
every large industrial city real coordinating
center, Trade Union Unity Council made up
of delegates straight from the shops, which
makes great solidarity in the class struggle
With the T. u. u. L. drive, running paral-
le and closely connected, is the national Un-
employment Council movement, by which the
jobless millions in every industry are united
fighting along with the workers for the short
er work day and higher pay, better shop con-
dtions, and for unemployment relief and un-
employment insurance, TO be paid for by the
