 PRESIDENT HOOVER
 For some days police authorities and treasury officials have been en- leavoring to persuade the so-ca1led bonus marchers to evacuate cer- tain buildings which they were occupying without permission.

May I respectfully sug- gest that judgement of General Glassford be needed. 1He has dem- onstrated tact and what is more, sympathy, in dealing with this situation.
 Regardless of whom they may be, American citizens must be pro- vided with food and shelter if they are destitute and hungry. .. when men are hungry for bread they are naturally irritable and will resist force. Riots such as occurred in Washington yesterday are synlptomatic of conditions. un- less intelligently, properly and constructively managed"
 Johnstown, Pa, July 29.-(UP) The bonus army driven from Washington is welcome to come here and stay as long as 1t likes. Mayor Eddie McCloskey telephoned leaders there.
 The former prize fighting, pants pressing mayor, closely allied with Father James R. Cox, militant Pittsburg priest and himself a champion of the "jobless" did not say how he would take care of the veterans.
 It was believed any effort to bring the veterans here would be opposed by business men who could not see how it would bene- at the veterans or the city.

WITH the coming into Tampa of
" a young Mexican worker, Juan
Hidalgo (or Jim Nine as he is
known there) as a representative
from the Penn-Ohio Strike Relief
Committee, the working class move
ment of Tampa took a rapid turn
to the revolutionary class struggle
line of the Communist Party and
the Trade Union Unity League.
This young Mexican Communist,
received first with suspicion by the
disilluSioned militant workers of
Tampa, so many times betrayed in
their struggles by the leadership of
the American Federation of Labor
and the anarchist leaders, in a
short time, by persistent everyday
Communist work, won to the side
of the revolutionary labor move
ment large sections Of the Tampa
working class.
Hundreds of dollars were collected
weekly in the factories for support
of the heroic Penn-Ohio miners
strike. The Scottsboro case was
widely popularized among the
working class of Tampa, especially
among the Negro workers, and the
struggle for the liberation of the
oppressed Negro people came to
play an important part in the
struggles of the Tampa working
class.
