second volume of the Simon re-

changes suggested include the ex-
tending of the franchise to more

complete reputation of the par

of federal government in which
the native princes, loyal to i'm

While representatives of the In

attend the betraying London Round
Table Conference arranged by the
British imperialists for the coming
October, British police continue to
club demonstrating Indian workers.
Wedgewood Benn, MacDonald's
"Socialistic" Secretary for India,
continues to "out-imperialist" his
imperialist masters. Speaking be-
fore the House of Commons yester-
day, Benn said that the peasant
"Red Shirt" movement on the North
west Indian frontier is not supported
from the outside, and that its red
uniforms and Communist emblems
are probably initiative rather than
directed" This is direct admission
that the peasants are really in
spired by the achievements of the
revolutionary masses in the Soviet
Union, and that they intend to
achieve the same results as their
fellow toilers in the Soviet Union.

SCRANTON, Pa, June 23.-To-
day, the first Monday of the strike
of $4,000 anthracite coal miners
against unemployment and bad con-
ditions of work, finds. the whole
United Mine Workers machine and
the local police and state troopers
united in the attempt to crush it.
The National Miners Union is
sending more organizers into the
strike region, and following the dis.
tribution there last week of $4,000
leaflets, continues its agitation.
There will be a mass meeting, called
by the N.M.U., in the streets of
Pittston, the strike center, on Thurs.
day.
Spread The Strike
The N. M. U. urges spreading of
the strike, control of the strike by
broad strike committees elected from
the strikers, and more demands
than just equalization of the work.
The miners. correctly understand
the Pennsylvania Coal Company's
scheme of shutting down part of
the mines, throwing thousands out
to starve, and running its other
mines, as wage cutting trick. But
the N.M.U. points out that the min
ers should also fight against the
vicious contractor system that has
(since it was started) Slapped their
strength in Pittston, and that the
miners must struggle also for I'M
employment relief, paid for by t
bosses state and distributed by the
miners.
The N.M.U. warns against the old
CANISTER leader Cappellini, president
of District / of the UNIV. before
the present Boylan clique got in.
Cappellini is trying to re-enter the
miners movement through an ALI
ance with the grievance committee
which called the strike over the
heads Of the Lewis-Boylan machine.
Cappellini based his strength on the
contractors, wiped out the militant
local leaders and sold out the men
just as badly as Boylan or Lewis.
Police Attack Meeting
The National Miners Union meet
ing called at Old Forge was broken
up Sunday by the Burgess police.
At Dunmore, the police, allied
with the U.M.W.A. machine pre-
vented Freeman Thompson, national
president of the N.M.U. from speak
ing. The police chief of Dunmore
recommended to the miners that
they take a secret ballot at the
UNIV. meeting on the question of
strike. The Lewis men adopted, the
proposal, for they are old hands at
counting ballots the way they want
them to go, and a secret ballot with
the Lewis gang in charge means a
sell out.

Prepare Convention

PITTSBURGH, Pa, June 30
The national Office of the National
Miners Union, Gil Penn Ave-, Pitts
burgh, has sent instructions to all
locals, committees and committees
of action, and all sympathizers for
the speeding of preparations for the
great national miners convention to
be held here July 26.
The letter states that the national
organ, "The Militant Mine Worker"
will appear before the convention,
and that indications from the dis
tricts are that there will be at least
1000 delegates at the convention.
Tours are planned for all national
organizers and board members, ad-
ditional organizers are being put in
to the field, and all forces are being
modified, not only for the conven-
ton, but for the struggles in the
anthracite and western Pennsyl-
vania, and Illinois. There are being
distributed 100000 calls for the con-
vention, and $4,000 leaflets are be-
ing distributed in the strike regions
of Ohio, West Virginia and Penn
sylvania. Outside of the anthracite,
whole areas are seething with re-
volt against wage cuts, and spon-
taneous strikes are breaking out
daily.
The wage cuts were forced upon
the miners by the Standard Oil
controlled Consolidation Coal Co.,
Bethlehem Steel, United States Steel,
Pittsburgh Terminal. In the Anth-
racite coal regions the U.M.W.A.
agreed, with the Pennsylvania Coal
Co., to cut wages of it's $4,000 min
ers. . In Illinois, Kansas, etc., the
Peabody-controlled ''re-organized'
U.M.W.A. led by Harrington, Fish
wick, Howat, permits the bosses to
lower the standard of living by var
ious methods. Everywhere in the
mining fields, wage cuts, unem-
ployment end starvation are facing

BEAUFORT, N. c., June ga
Negro worker whose name is at pres
emit unknown was lynched here by
gang of about 1000 white men
led by local business and landlord
elements. This act of terrorism in
tended to choke out the protest Of
Negro and white workers alike "a
the increased unemployment and
general lowering of living standards
of the workers, was based on the
usual alibi of attacks on white
women"
The crowd went out looking for
a victim, and one Negro worker was
chased into a corner, CAPTURED, and
riddled with bullets and shot.

a, word is received from many
districts throughout the coun-
try that the workers of Amer
lea are sending big delegations
to the convention.
Whatever the necessity of the
capitalist press and the police to
pretend that this convention was a
dark secret, and had to be found out
through secret service channels, the
millions of jobless in U.S.A. know
enough about it to stage a great
campaign for Building Councils of
the Unemployed and electing delega-
tions to the convention.
Delegates from Milwaukee.
Reports are coming from Mil
waukee that a strong delegate
was chosen at the city confe -
yesterday. The working class o.
Milwaukee has had distributed to
it thousands of leaflets exposing the
capitalist plan to starve the workers
into lower wages, and exposing the
socialist takers who control the city
administration there. The workers
are being modified for the unem-
ployed march.
thousands of posters are dis
played throughout the Illinois Sec
ton.
From Coal Fields
The coal fields, too, are on the
job. There will be a huge demon
stration July in Springfield, the
state capital, with delegations pres
ent from St. Louis and the many
mining towns Of the southern part
of the state.
In Peoria a Council of the Unem-
ployed is being organized among
1,500 workers laid off at one of the
steel mills.
In Lake County (steel center)
and in Chicago itself 10000 leaflets
are being distributed now, especially
among the Negro workers of the
South Side in Chicago. The Negro
workers and jobless are very &C.
tive in building this movement.
Distribution takes place at factory
gates and in employment agencies.
Strange Yarn.
The Danzig revelations, which
brought a comment from Police
Lieutenant Mills, are very fanciful.
They speak of 100000 gold
rubles sent by Moscow for a Com
munist drive in the United States"
evidently some white guard emf
grees embroidery on the already ex-
ploded yarn of the former Police
Commissioner Whalen of New York,
that $1,250,000 has been sent to Eos
ter for revolution in the United
States" and they give a list of
names of seven supposed American
Communists at a mythical confer
ence in Danzig-all the names be
ing purely fictitious.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-06-24

National Miners Union rejected this
and stated that the miners are de-
termined not to go back to work
unless the wage cut is revoked and
the old scale established. In addi
ton, the miners demand a check
weighman, recognition of the mine
committee, a scale for dead work,
etc.
Dut to the fact that the mine
worked only two days a month, the
pangs of hunger were felt the first
day. The N.M.U. local has selected
a committee of five to go into the
Pittsburgh area and appeal for food
and funds. All workers must sup
port the striking Penowa miners.

ARKANSAS TEAM FACES
 RECORD HARD TO BEAT

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark, Jan. 14.- Speaking of tough propositions that champions must face, here are some of the records that defy this years University of Arkansas basketball squad:
 Their predecessors have won the Southwest conference championship for the past four years.
 Arkansas teams won 21 consecu- tive victories in conference compe- tition-12 straight in 1928 and nine last year.
 The 1929 team made the highest score ever recorded in a confer ence game-7l points against Bay Tor.
 Wear Schoonover, this years cap- tain, set an individual scoring rec ord for the conference when he amassed 26 points in that game.
 Last years team piled up 566 points in 12 conference games, against 291 for opponents.
 To keep the fans even halfway satisfied, the 1880 Razorbacks know they must set new records as well as land that fifth straight title.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Jan 14-- owl football has passed the eX- porimental stage at Drake uni versity, and five of the eight games on the 1880 schedule will be played at night. Ed c. Lytton, business manager of the university. and Coach Ossie Solem have announced.
 Chicago fans will see their first major college game at night in Soldier Field October 3, when the Bulldogs meet Oregon university. The following Friday night, Drake clashes with Marquette at Milwau- kee under the powerful arcs.
 Local followers will see Drake in action in the daytime in only one game, the Iowa State contest. Grin nell and Washington university of St. Louis are both scheduled for after-dark contests in the Drake stadium.
 The fifth night game with Creighton at Omaha, IS contln- gent on weather conditions, as night games in extremen cold are con- sidered less successful.
 Although not the originator of night games, Drake set new pace by playing four such contests in 1929, after a tryout in single game in the 1928 season. Power ful lights, set 50 feet above the playing field at Drake stadium flood every point of the gridrion with intersecting beams. eliminating the sky beyond the range of the highest punters, according to MT Lytton.
 Although opposing teams were dubious at first" MT. Lytton says "a trial convinced them of night football possibilities and it is here to stay. Attendance was increased from 100 per cent to 400 per cent at comparable games"

CAIRO BUILDS AUTO
 ROADS TO PYRAMIDS

CAIRO, Jan. 14-The develop ment of motor traffic in the land of the Pharoahs has necessitated the speeding up of road extension,
 Alexandria has completed large part of the roads to Abukir and Corniche, and they provide an ex- cellent surface for the motorist. Cairo also shows it's willingness to adapt itself to the era of automo- piles by improving the roads to Heliopolis and the Pyramids.
 But these efforts do not keep pace with the need of the traffic. Parking conditions in Alexandria are anything but satisfactory. Cairo is better off in that respect owing to its wider streets.
 The oil companies decided to do something to help towards solving the motorists difficulties and are erecting service stations at all fav- orable points. A good service sta- tion is already functioning in He liopolis; and the program of future development includes not only Cairo and Alexandria but also such pro- vincial towns as Tanta and Fayum.
