NO RESTRICTION
ON DRAFT ARMIES
Arms Conference Talks
About It Two DAYS

Capitalist press dispatches from
Geneva show the League of Nations
preliminary arms conference" TAX
ing two days, Saturday and Monday,
to discuss, academically, whether to
recommend to a still more visionary
arms conference to meet, maybe,
some time in the future, to limit the
terms Of conscript soldiers.
Finally it voted that each govern
ment is to fix the terms - which is
exactly what each government was
doing anyway This is, by some trick
of the conference, foisted on the
world as a decision combining the
best principles of both plans, for
general reduction and for national
autonomy in army service" The Sow
let Union, U. S. and Germany re-
fused to vote.
After this, by vote of seven to
six, with IA countries abstaining, the
conference decided to recommend
that there be some general limit to
the armed forces of each nation. All
the big imperiaiist countries alb
stained. The Soviet Union abstained
on the ground that the motion did
not mean anything, and that the
U. S. S. r. stands for reduction, if
the imperialists won't accept elm
nations, of armies and navies.

MURDOCH GOES
TO TRIAL FRI.
Crime Is Exposing the
ALL. Takers

NEW YORK.-Nov. 1.-THE trial
date in the case of VIM. Murdoch,
National Secretary for the National
Textiles Workers Union has been set
for this Friday, Nov 14th in the
Criminal Term of the Corpoation
Court, for alleged slanderous remarks
and Lies" against the A. F. of L.
printed and distributed in leaflet
issued by the union to the mill
strikers in Danville. Murdoch will be
defended in court by the Interna-
tional Labor Defense.
Murdoch is at present serving a
120 day sentence in the Danville Jail
for his activities in union work and
participation in the local strike. The
charges against Murdoch in libeling
officials of the United Textile Work
ers Union, the A. F. of L. organiza-
ton are better understood according
to the LID. after the leaflet has
been read, which has just been re-
ceived by the national Office.
The leaflet is an appeal to the
workers in the mills, headed Work
ers support the Danville strikers !!
Spread the strike! Keep the scabs
out Of the mills! and a general call
to the workers to rally against their
employers. The expose of the be-
trayal of the workers by A. F. of l..
officials is the basis for the libel suit.
The transcript of the charges reads
that the leaflet referred to German
an A. F. of L. official as a liar and
exposed the owners of the mills in
stealing wages from the workers.
The International Labor Defense
points out that this is a direct at
tempt on part of the courts to pro-
tect company union officials and the
mill owners by putting away in Jail
representatives Of workers organiza-
tions.
A militant fight will be put up by
the LID. in its defense of Murdoch
and various officials of the National
Textile Workers Union are leaving
for Danville to act as witnesses for
the defense.
