LOTTERY CASE
Senator Does Not Dominate

Tells Jury.

Former Cabinet Member

inspiration
BY SANDOR KLEIN
United Press STAFF Correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 2o.-Donald F..
Stewart, editor of the Moose
magazine, came to the aid of SEN
ator James j. Davis (Rep., Pa, in
federal court today, denying that
Davis dominated the affairs of the
Loyal Order of Moose, or hello rigid
control over all of its activities.
Davis is on trial, charged with
violating federal statutes prohibiting
promotion of lotteries through the
mails or in interstate commerce.
He is being tried in advance of
six other persons indicted by a
grand jury that investigated alleged
lotteries conducted by fraternal or
CARNATIONS.
Davis, thrice a cabinet officer, is
candidate for reelection to the
senate in November.
Pays Tribute to Senator
Stewart was put under eXamina-
ton by Charles j. Margiotti of the
defense counsel The government
sought to establish Monday that
Davis dominated every phase of
Moose activity, was aware of the
alleged lotteries conducted in its
name, and had profited personally
from them to the extent of $4,000.
Stewart said he did not submit
all of his magazine material for
Davis approval and that when he
did, it was not because he was COM
PEELED to do so. He and members of
his staff wrote editorials and signed
Davis name to them without his
knowledge or consent.
"Why?" he was asked.
mr. Davis is busy man and Mr..
Davis is and always has been to any
Moose an inspiration because he
was largely responsible for its world
wide recognition
Looks Up and Smiles
Davis, who had been making notes
at counsel table, looked up and
beamed. He was neatly dressed and
at ease. Occasionally he tossed his
head TO throw his shock of silver
gray hair back from his forehead.
Charles H. Tuttle, in making the
opening defense address Monday,
declared Davis had not profited
from any Embarrassing campaign
and that money raised was diverted
only for legitimate organization ex-
penses.
He pointed out that MooSeheart,
the orphan village near Aurora, H.,
represented an investment of $12,-
100000 and that money had to be
raised to meet the annual budget
requirement of $1,500,000.
Some one had to find the money"
he declared, "and jim Davis found

New York Tenants
Win Rent Fight

NEW YORK-(F.P.)-A five-week
rent strike by 212 tenants in a New
York apartment house has been won
by the strikers.
The landlord had taken several
cases into court, had evicted some
tenants and had threatened whole
sale evictions. But the tenants had
stood fast and the final decision
was largely in their favor.
Concessions forced from the land
lord included: per cent reduction
in rent in addition to the 10 per
cent already granted; a further 21a
per cent of all rent paid to be put
in special fund to pay back rent
for those who are or may become un-
employed; a months concession to
all tenants.
A board of mediation has been set
up to take care of any question which
may arise between tenants and land
lord in the future.

said before, Butte is interested in
programs and policies, not party af-
filiations. Butte has come to the
point where the people see little diff
ference in the old line parties, and
they have come to the realization
that the campaign promises of these
political groups mean nothing. They
are not so blind that they cannot
see that the corporations Of this
state finance both parties and that
the worker always loses. If the
Thomas rally is an indication we can
expect almost any kind of an upset
in national politics from Butte this
year.
The Silver Bow Trades and Labor
Council and its special committee
are to be congratulated on arrang-
ing this meeting. They worked hard,
and without the cooperation of the
daily press in giving this meeting
publicity, they held the most spirited
political rally held in Butte this year.

another quarter of them may do so.
The report points out that strug-
gle impends as to whether the short
er work week shall be at the old
hourly rate or at the old weekly
rate-whether the boss or the work
er shall bear the cost of the change,
in other words.
The report warns of the danger
of cutting wage totals. "About half
the annual expenditures of all peo-
pie in the United States comes from
salaried employees and wage earners
making $4,000 a year and less. To
the extent that this purchasing pow
er would be diminished, demand for
manufactured products would de-
crease and desirable market, for
which production facilities have been
expanded, would be lost" OF course,
the report might have added that
so long as some workers work IL
hours a day and seven days a week,
as in few industries and on some
government jobs, while millions are
jobless, that desirable market is de-
stroyed anyway.

HARLAN, KY.-(FP.)-The coal
operators struck a body blow at the
Harlan miners charged with murder
as a result of the battle of Evarts
when Jim Reynolds, fifth victim of
their hate, was found guilty and
sentenced to life Imprisonment. -Four
others had been given the same
sentence.
Apparently disheartened by the
Reynolds conviction and the steady
pressure of 15 months in Jail, -four
other defendants pleaded guilty to
voluntary manslaughter and were
given shorter terms. Cases against
three We're dismissed.
Pleas Thomas, Charles Shadrick
and Doyle Assad pleaded guilty to
voluntary manslaughter in connec-
tion with the killing Of Howard
Jones and Otto Lee and were sen
fenced to two years apiece on each
case, making four year sentences
Otto Mills and Gaines Eubank, Ne
gro, pleaded guilty to voluntary
manslaughter in the killing of Otto
Lee and were sentenced to three
years each.
Charges against Henry Oliver, Ne
gro, Roscoe Damron and Andrew
Hench were dismissed. Three in
dictments against William Turn
blazer, United Mine Workers leader,
were filed away, subject to being re-
instated if the prosecution so de-
cides.
There are some 35 or 40 more
murder cases pending and arrests
are still being made, although the
Evarts fight took place more than
16 months ago. All deputy and gun
man killers have been freed.

SOLDIER BOY
By WALT HOLIDAY.

/.
| met him on the street one day,
knew him in a way:
We'd one time worked as pard-
ners in a mine.
A smiling happy fellow; you don't
meet then every day
With a soul built on the best
Infinite Design.
2.
He was young and strong and
healthy and they grabbed him
for the war
Sent him far across the seas to
fight and die;
But, somehow though he stood it;
he was ever game, you see-nor
Did he ever protest when or where
or why.
8.
| noticed that the laughter was
fading from his eyes.
l noticed, too, his smile was not
so bright
He was just a little gloomy. He
had eaten once that day
And he had no place at ali to
sleep that bitter night.
4.
Pm not grouching at my country.
Pm not kicking up a fuss,
But honest don't you think we
really ought to try;
When a fellow does our fighting;
when he wastes his youth away,
We ought to help him live
instead of die?

Repeal Unemployment
Says Norman Thomas
Continued from page one)

would continue only until we could
provide work.
Second, we should Immediately or
ganize work. What nonsense to
wiring our hands when there is such
useful work to be done, much Of it
promptly remunerative. One-third of
our people are indecently housed in
slums, mining camps and shacks.
Declare war on bad housing. Start
this year with an initial $3,000,000,-
900 federal appropriation, not for
limited dividend corporations, but
public housing authorities to wipe
out slums. The whole cost might be,
we believe, 20 billions, which is less
than the cost of our adventure in
world war. And at least 85 per cent
would probably come back in the
process of renting at cost Then
there are roads, tunnels and bridges
to be built, country districts to be
electrified, lands to be reforested.
This is what a real program of pub
lie works means.
Third, if by this program and its
direct and indirect effects there is
not enough work provided we shall
take over by cooperation of states
and federal government, idle factories
and put hte unemployed to pro-
ducing for themselves and for ex-
change among themselves, not for
sale.
Fourth, we should finance this
principally by bonds underwritten
by income and inheritance taxes, and
if necessary, by a capital levy. Ten
billion ought to start us well on our
way. We should expect controlled
initiation and might print some money
to be retired by stamp tax on its
circulation for the special purposes
of unemployment relief.
Fifth, we should make mandatory
the five-day week and six-hour day.
Under capitalism, while this might
divide up work it would reduce
weekly wages. This would not be so
under steadily advancing program
of socialization.
Sixth, we should put in unemploy-
ment insurance not as substitute
for work, but supplement to il. In
the future unemployment insurance
or indemnity, provided half by in
dustries and half by profit takers
who would be taxed, would take the
place of the emergency maintenance
wage that is now necessary because
our advice to set up unemployment
insurance was disregarded. Unem-
ployment insurance should be uni
form, i. e. federal. Socialists propose
constitutional amendment to give
congress power for all necessary
economic and social legislation. For
ty-eight states make progress very
unever and very slow. In this par
ticular field, states rights are work
ers wrongs.
Add to these things complete aboli-
tion of child labor free public en-
ployment exchanges, old age assist
ance beginning at sixty--seventy is
too late, if you can last till then you
can last forever-and you have the
Socialist immediate program.
But never forget Valuable as
this program is and helpful on our
march to Socialism, it is Socialism
itself which will bring final repeal Of
unemployment.
