STRIKE SHOWS i
NEW VIGOR;; NEED
FOR RELIEF GROWS

TO house visiting and explanation Of
the reasons for striking the
mines, doubled the picket line with
in the last two days and drew a
corresponding number Of men out OF
Pittsburgh Terminal Mine No. 3.
No. is so hard hit now that it
closed down for two days.
The company tries TO claim in
creased production at No. 8, at Cover
dale. But the miners have found
out that the extra coal coming up the
No. 8 tipple is mined in No. 8 and
shipped underground through
connection that has been made be-
tween No. 3 and No 8.
Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Co.
Mine No. 2 at Castle Shannon is
ready TO close down any day.
The Barking mine is still trying TO
run, though none of the strikers
have gone back to it. Friday the
state police clustered around the
ferry on the Springdale side and
guarded small group Of imported
scabs across. But meanwhile, on
the company patch side of the AL
legheny river, and in spite Of
crowd Of deputies gathered there
from other mines, the pickets stop
ped all attempts to run scabs thru
their lines in cars. One car was
damaged, and the others fled.
The Allegheny section strikers de-
clare that Mines No. 2 and No.
at Curtisville are ready to strike.
Only the most terrific concentra-
ton of deputy sheriffs at Harmar-
vile has kept the mine gripping
along SO far. Yesterday there was
one deputy TO every picket. This
is now the usual thing. When the
company miscalculates and gets out
only 80 deputies when a hundred
pickets show up, the state police
commanders oblngly send ten troop
ers to even things up But Harmar-
vile can not stand the strain for
ever. All those deputies have TO be
paid, and they cost a lot more than
miners.
Vesta, No. 6, which was reported
closed down for a week" is trying
TO run again, and is being picketed.
ATLASBURG, Pa, Aug. s.-Sher-
if SeanJ1n of Washington county
has embarked on a crusade to starve
the strikers and their children TO

room there is a relief kitchen and
supply store.
The sheriff yesterday ordered this
whole establishment closed, and put
up eviction notices. The Relief re-
fused TO move out. The man who
owns the property on which the kit
chen stands refused to order the
Relief out. But this man and his
son work in the American Zinc g.
Chemical Co. plant and when the
two went to work this morning, they
were notified by the company that
they could either order the eviction
or lose their jobs They yielded but
the Relief did not, and at last &C
counts was still holding the fort.

Capitalist press reports from
Berlin state that police fired upon
Communist workers, hundreds of
shots being exchanged. Altogether
IS Communists are reported killed,
and about 8 wounded Communists
were removed TO hospitals.
The fighting started at Below
Platz, near the Communist head
quarters at $3.50 pm, following the
reported failure of the referendum
for the dissolution of the Prussian
diet.
Several hours later the fighting
was growing more intense. The
police raided a Communist meet
ing at nearby music hall, and
about a thousand Communists we're
arrested and taken to police head
quarters where they we're searched.
Two police are said to have also
been killed.
A tabulation of returns by the
Telegraphen- Union in districts
comprising 25,552,000 voters shows
9,444,000 votes in favor of the pie
biscite. A total of 13,4449, $50 votes
were required TO dissolve the Diet.
The voting was held under ell
abOrate police protection. Police

A MESSENGER.

EDITORIAL Note:-We think the
worker who wrote this letter de-
serves to be criticized for not speak
ing to the workers In the neigh
borhocd about organizing to resist
this eviction. 1t is possible that he
might have organized the workers
on the spot to put the furniture
back into the house. Revolution
airy workers must be ready to or
ganixe workers for action wherever
and whenever organization is
needed. We must not stand idle
by and watch workers being thrown
from their homes and then write a
letter to the Daily Worker telling
how to stop eyictions. We should
take some immediate steps to step
the evictions. Talk to the workers.
Get a group together and form a
no eviction COMMITTEES. Be an or
ganizer and an agita,or at ali times.

tCOntlnued from Page 1.) He made 1t clear that Germany Is not drifting aimleBsly but is determined to steer h planned | course by means of the Paris and London conferences. He also re- vealed Gcrmany's attitude towards several of the reporetd political demands of the French.
 Germany's plan, he explained, is to use credits from abroad for internal debts and eventually for the benefit of industry, so that Germany may rchabilltatc herself and place the country on q sound basis from within.
 "The rediscount credit we nre discussing at London" he said, "is needed for q breathing space to bring out banking and credit sys- replace the discount credit by n amount. but it would be childish to assume 1t can be accomplished in two days at London. We plan that the rcdiscount credit will not be used merely to serve to cov- CT the normal note circulation.
 Employment of the loan to pay the short-term foreign debt would afford no relief to Germany and bring no new capital to the coun- try. so we are determined to use 1t for internal debts, notably those of the states and communes and eventually of industry--a procc- dure that would liberate a corrcs- bonding sum at home which would replenish the depleted monetary credit, supply private banks and savings banks and place fresh credit at the disposal of busi- ness.
 simultaneously, n long term foreign loan, because it would be paid to tho Reichsbank in the form of foreign currency. would give the Reichsbank an opportun- fly to increase tho bank note cir culation."

SILENCE REICNS SUPREME AT THE
 WHITE HOUSE
Even a Yes or No Answer Cannot Be Obtained From WOrkmen or Any body Else

Washington, July 21.-UP)-A great silence, as the movie writers used to say. has descended over the White House. President Hoover's edict that all information must come from authorized sources, that attaches must not discuss White House affairs, is being obeyed to the word, syllable and letter.
 For instance just before MT Hoover left for his week -end trip to the Rapidan, an employe was asked:
 Well. all set for the trip?'
 What trip?" "Why, the camp"
 What camp| 'The presidents camp" Has the president got camp?' And about the time Mr Hoover was expected back from the Rapi- dan, White House policeman was asked if he had returned. The policeman put his finger to his lips. and said:
 "Sh-h-h! You're 6 reporter. ] can't say a. word" Another policeman stood at the front portico of the White House inspecting some scaffolding. Well, looks like they're going to paint 1t again, doesn't it?" a visitor ventured.
 "I don't know anything about it,' was his story. and he stuck to 1t.
 Atop the parapet of the east wing of the mansion are many boxes of brilliant scarlet flowers. An attendant was asked might they by chance be blue larkspur 2"

not withdrawn any of their cred its in Germany, and some have even increased their credits. American sources were reticent concerning proceedings before the meeting. summoned to aid Ger many and to aver possible finan- cial crisis throughout Europe.
 From other authoritative sources however. it was learned that tho American state secretary outlined the United States attitude and pol ley. but made no definite propo- sal. Stifnson denied having any new definite plan or proposal. Stimson suggested. non-Ameri- can quarters revealed, that the va rious governments agree to request their central banks to insist that all banks in their countries take every possible measure 10 halt withdrawals of credits from Ger many.
 Finance ministers will discuss the suggestion. The French mean while said they were ready to agree to such q course.
 Members of all delegations ex- cept the Japanese. 1t was learned, spoke and displayed general agree ment that the first thing 10 be done was to insure that all credits granted Germany at this time would not be withdrawn.
 It was suggested that Germany take further measures to halt withdrawals of short term credits from Germany by foreign banks. The finance ministers will discuss 1t nt their meeting this afternoon.
 "I am well satisfied with this mornings meeting" Stimson told the press, "and I feel that as q re- suit of this meeting and those in Paris. the lines of the conference are shaping themselves and prob- lems are becoming clarified.
 There arc better prospects than ever for n successful solution"
 Stimaon said he knew nothing of reported new American pro posals" mentioned in Washingt ton dispatcheB.
 He admitted he spoke before the morning session about stabilization of credits for Germany to prevent further withdrawals, but I did not put out any new American propo- sal.

coffee. explaining 1t was harmless as n stimulant.
 Contrasting the present crisis with that of 1923 in Germany, Dietrich emphasized that Germany is now suffering from deflation, not from imitation. He added that the deflation was due to the loss of gold cover for German banknote circulation. France. he recalled, with only two-thirds of the German population and one half the German industry, has over twice Germany's note circu- lation.
 He expressed hope that Frances participation in the London con ference means that France Is con- vInced n new era of Franco-Ger- man collaboration k possible and Germany is acting in good faith, SO that the French government is confident the French people will subscribe to a new loan for Ger many.
 He was asked:
 What do you think about Frances attempt to get Germany's official pledge that the Young plan payments will be fully re- stunned on expiration of the Hoover holiday year.?
 Carefully considering his words and slipping a liqueur. Dietrich re- piled:
 "Germany is now in n position where private debts have largely been called. IL Is a point for us to pay those debts. Whether and to what extent payment of our political debts Is possible in addi- ton to payment of the private debts cannot now be discussed. AS an industrial country we must un- dertake every effort in our own interest to pay private debts. be- cause otherwise we would be un- able to maintain our foreign trade"
 He replied automatically to Il question concerning the German attitude towards Gcrmany's sus- pending building of her second pocket battleship."
 "In order to avoid becoming completely dcfcnscless.' he said. "Germany is obliged to take ad- vantage of the opportunities which the Versailles treaty offers-Op- portunitics which are most limited and which left Germany very It. tie power"
 In conclusion he was asked how the German government reacted to the French proposal for a ten year Franco German political truce, during which Germany pre- sumably would be bound not to seek revision of the Versailles treaty. He replied:
 "Germany tx determined to pur- sue It's objective only by peaceful means. Consequently l cannot state our attitude towards the pro- posaia for n true, the contents of which I do not knOw.'
