PASTORS GAG
MRS. WILLIAMS
Refuse Floor to Mother OF
Scottsboro Boy at
Chattanooga

Chattanooga, Tenn, (by mail)--
In an effort to lay the facts of the
Scottsboro case before ten thou
sand delegates assembled last Fri
day for a convention of the Bap.
list Young Peoples Union, Mamie
Williams, mother of Eugene, was
turned away without getting q
hearing.
She was told she would have f.
see some of the pastors before she
would be permitted to speak. She
asked several of the pastors,
among them Rev. Sanford and Rev.
Shitton, preachers at two of the
biggest Negro Baptist churches
here. They refused to let her
speak because, they said, she is
connected with the Communists.
The Negro workers Of Chattanooga
know that the real reason she was
turned way is because the big
preachers are not interested In
saving the Scottsboro boys but in
pleasing the white boss class by
being "good niggers."
The Baptist convention spent its
time discussing prohibition and
companionate marriage, but didn't
have a word to say about the
Scottsboro case, lynchings of Ne
groes, or mass starvation of the
Negro and white farmers.

HOUSE GETS NEW
RELIEF BILL TO
BE KILLED SOON

On June Is the House committee
on Agriculture reported a bill in
PRODUCED by Representative Rainey
the Democrat leader, by a vote of
IL to 10. The bill was to provide
the farmers with the world price
on agricultural products with the
addition Of the full amount of the
tariff on the various products, on
that part of the product which
would be consumed in the domestic
market.
The capitalist press states that
the reporting of the bill to the
House meant, not that the bill
would get any favorable action in
the House but that the close vote
meant that the bill would almost
certainly be killed there. It Is by
means Of fake "relief" bills such
as these that the capitalist class
tries to divert the farm masses
from struggle for their immedi-
ate demands osupport Of capital

TRACTORS IN USE
IN IOWA DECLINE.
FROM 1880 PEAK

Tractors on Iowa farms on Jan.
l. 1882, numbered 58,166, which
was 300 less than a year ago or
a decrease of one-half of one per
cent, according to reports of as
SCISSORS just summarized by the
Weather and Crop Bureau of the
Iowa department. of Agriculture.
In order to conceal the signifi-
canoe of these statistics the Iowa
Department of Agriculture states
that apparently the saturation
point for tractors in Iowa was
reached during the year 1880 with
a peak number of 58,475." The
iecline in the number of tractors
IN Iowa as elsewhere is due to the
fact that the impoverished farm
ers are unable to run them under
the conditions forced upon them by
the capitalist crisis.

ymen's League held in Syracuse,
N. Y. on June 16, heard Governor
Wilson of Vermont, and Louis J.
Taber, of Ohio, master of the Ma
tional Grange, denounce the elm
terests." Wilson and Taber both
used this kind of demagogy in or
der to get the farmers lined up
behind the fake programs they of
fered which will mean no relief
for the farmers.
Taber demagogically told them
that they must turn from Wall
Street to an inspection of COM
modify prices" He did this in or
der to hide the fact that the Dair-
ymen's League of New York is
only a subsidiary of the milk
trust, organized as farmers CO.

the Republican convention for
spending so much time on prohi-
bition.
