MILLER SHOE co.
STRIKERS MARCH
IN SPITE OF BAN
Socialis t Secretary
Leading Scab in 5
Star Strike

LONG ISLAND CITY, July TO- -
Despite the court injunction against
picketing, 200 striking shoe workers
of the l. Miller shop marched to the
factory gate Saturday to demand the
return of $50 which the company is
holding as security for the infamols
yellow Dog Contract. which de-
MED the workers the right to orga-
nize and strike.
While the marchers waited ostside
the factory gate a committee Went
in to see the bosses. The commit
tee demanded the immediate return
of the $50. The committee also in
formed the boss of the strikers de-
cision regarding a registered letter
which was received by each worker
telling him to come for his tools and
money. The answer of the commit
tee was that all the workers we're
ready to take their tools home and
continue the strike.
The committee pointed out that
the strikers would not come for their
tools individually, but in groups of
ten.
When the l. Miller bosses heard
this they knew their scheme to speak
to the strikers individually was
smashed.
The fir mhanded the committee
statement to the effect that the
Millers are released of all obligations
and the workers are released from
their jobs The boss asked the COM
mittee to sign this statement. The
committee rejected the statement
and led the strikers back to the strike
headquarters.
Shouted for 10 Weeks.
For ten weeks the Millers shouted
that there was no strike and that
the workers had quit their jobs; now
Millers want to discharge them.
These obviously clumsy tricks of
the Miller Company are reflection
of company's panicky situation.
Although the injunction has been in
effect for over a week, the strike is
more solid than on tn eopening day
OF the struggle.
Strikers In Court Today.
The 81 strikers charged with dis
orderly conduct will come up for trial
Monday in Long Island City.
Five Star Strike Strong.
The Five Star Strike is going
strong. More cops are detailed
around the injunction zone and are
becoming more vicious threatening
the strikers with physical violence.
The Five Star Strike Committee
decided to follow the example of the
Miller strikers by holding daily mass
picket demonstrations.

DEBT AGREEMENT
AIMED AT u. s.

Preparations

The thirty-fifth war debts and
reparations conference adjourned at
Lausanne on Saturday with the Pow
ers initiating the agreement whereby
the Won Papen Junker Cabinet con-
tracts Germany to continued political
and economic slavery and the pay
ment of war tributes to the victor
powers in the last World War.
The conference admitted the i'm
possibility of sweating out of the i'm
poverished German masses the en-
tire balance of the huge sixty-four
billion dollars reperations bill exacted
by the terms of the infamous Yer
sailles Treaty and arranged for I'M
der the Young Plan. Germany has
already been forced to pay twelve
billion dollars of this sum-
The conference refused to wipe out
further payments, and set the final
payment at $712500 and pretending
to make a substantial reduction in
the amount of reparations still
claimed by the Powers. This reduc-
ton, however, is made contingent
upon the success of European pres
sure upon the United States to free
the former Allied Powers of their war
debt obligations to this country
These debts amount to over eleven
billion dollars, according to figures
released by the U. S. Treasury on
Saturday.
The agreement is thus not final

Pace AssaiIs Hoover.
George Pace, Commander of the
14th Regiment, in statement to the
press today assailed the Hoover evic-
ton plan as an attempt to starve the
war veterans.
1.-THE veterans must resist this at
tempt of the government to trick
them out of Washington" said Pace.
Hoover Is trying to drive us back to
the breadlines to starve We must re-
fuse to leave. We must organize new
delegations of veterans to march
here and demand that Congress pass
the bonus bill before it adjourns."
Main Body Stands Fast.
Only a few hundred veterans were
tricked into accepting the railroad
passes, which they themselves will
have to pay for. The main body of the
army is still standing fast on the Po-
tomac determined to force the gov
eminent to pay their back wages.
At the headquarters of the Workers
League veterans de-
clared that they were not drafted into
the army by their respective city gov
ernments.
"We were drafted by the Federal
government" said vet from New
York, "and we're going to stay and
demand that Congress passes the bill.
We haven't spoke loud enough for
the bonus. We veterans must make

victories by the Chinese Red Armies
in Hupeh and Human Provinces and
the attempt of a Hankow worker to
assassnate the Marking butcher,

the city. All news is being censored.
The censorship is so strict that the
Chinese correspondent of Shanghai's
largest newspaper has been Jailed for
attempting to send out the news.
A full division and half of
Marking troops deserted to the
Red Armies in the Sinyang area
following the Red victories. The
Red forces have won control Of a
long stretch of the Peiping- Hankow
Railway, cutting one of the main
lines of supplies for the Hankow
garrison and further strengthening
the iron ring Of the Red forces
around that chief Central China
city.

yesterday renewed his pledge to the

The campaign already has been
shattered by the powerful counter
offensive of the Red Armies.
Threat Large Scale War
Chang is now threatening civil
war on "a large SCALE" He has re-
quested the imperiaaists to notify
all foreign legations to order the
withdrawal of their nationals from

Six students were killed, four Sc

gendarmes killed in a pitched battle
between students and the military at
Hopei Normal School in Paotingfu,
sixty miles southwark of Peiping,
yesterday. The gendarmes surrounded
the schoo land opend fire on the
students as a sequel to the declara-

Prepare Aug. LIST

Demonstrations are being prepared
throughout the United States for
August LIST, the eighteenth anniver-
sary of the start of the last i'm
perialist world war. The Daily Worker
appeals to all workers to send it re-
ports of the preparatory work for
these demonstrations.
Japan's robber war on China, in
volving the seizure of Manchuria and
the slaughter of tens of thousands
of unarmed Chinese civilians, was
yesterday described by Gen. Araki,
Japanese War Minister, as "neces-
sary move" to prevent the spread
of Communism"
Speaking before the League of
Nations Investigation" Commission
for two and half hours, the Jap
anese War Minister discarded all
pretexts that Manchuria was to be
an independent" state and argued
that inclusion of Manchuria in the
Japanese Empire was necessary for
Japan's safety" He hypocritically
defended the theft of Manchuria
from China as aimed to prevent
the further disintegration of China"
He carefully developed a thesis on
the necessity Of united imperialist
front against the Soviet Union,
stressing Japan's service to world
Imperialism in its murderous drive
against the revolutionary struggles of
the Mar ,aurian masses, claiming
that japan thereby was preventing
the spread of Communism"
In support of his thesis for an
anti-Soviet front, Gen. Araki con-
jured up the picture of a Manchuria
freed Of imperialist oppression and
ruled by Soviets of Manchurian
workers, peasants and soldiers. This
terrible" picture he intirnated would
now have been realized but for
Japan's armed intervention in Man
churia and her savage assault on
the Manchurian masses.
The League Commission which is
supposed to be investigating" the
Japanese aggressions in Manchuria
is reported to have asked Gen. Arkai
three Eneral duestions-frist, the
relation of Manchuria to Japan's
national defense; second, the army's
plans regarding the maintenance Of
order in Manchuria, and, third, the
army's view of Manchuria's future.
Gen. Arkai replied that "the in
tersts of Japan and Manchuria were
inseparable." He declared that Man
churia was Japan's "first line Of
defense" He answered the third
question with the statement that
"the maintenance of stability in
Manchuria was of vital interest to
Japan"
The League Commission which is
now in the final stage of its Gin
VeStlSdtlollS ID preparing WInte
wash of the Japanese aggressions
which will seek to legalize the con-
version of Manchuria by Japan into
an armed base against the Soviet
Union, and at the same time attempt
to deceive the toiling masses Of the
world into belief that the League of
Nations is working for peace" in the
Far East.

third morning of determined pick

turned them around and sent them
home. Only 80 got to the mine and
these went home because they could
not do any good"
Scabs in the Blaine mine find they
have to clean out the rock, before
they mine any coal. Some of it is
rock which was left when the strike
