Mass Action Breaks
Bans in TOnawanda

TONAWANDA, N. Y.-The local
workers have had the satisfaction Of
holding Communist campaign meet
ing in the very City Hall Council
chambers where they were attacked
and brutally beaten last Dec. 80,
while protesting against the passage
Of an ordinance limiting our right to
organize the unemloyed, while
demanding better relief. This meet
ing was followed by an enthusiastic
celebration Of the 18th Anniversary Of
the Russian Revolution.
The terror which has held the local
workers in check for the past several
months Is now effectively broken.

IEEPERIALIST MURDERS IN
MADAGASCAR.

The International Red Aid and
Conrade Montjau, French deputy,
received the following telegram from
Madagascar:
"Tananarivo, Madagascar: Taking
advantage Of Chamber recess, the
government, under pretext of pro-
scouting International Red Aid I'M
der laws already repealed, has pro-
claimed state of siege. Communica-
tons abroad cut Off, "Aurore" $50

murderer Of Palaihova, acquitted;
Dauphin, murderer Of Rakotamavo,
fined 100 francs. Protest internal
regime, utmost illegality. (Signed)
"Aurore".
This telegram from the "Aurore
Malgache", Madagascar newspaper,
discloses the gravity of the situation
in that French colony off the East
coast Of Africa.
A Madagascar Negro, Rapaoly, was
sentenced for failing to pay his taxes.
He was summoned to the tax Office
and never left the Office alive.
Dauphin, a government official
kicked the truck driver Rakotomavo
In the abdomen. killing him, only
because this native did not present
his identification card to the imper-
ial!st agent quickly enough.
Herriot, the French Prime Minister,
has placed 400 Madagascar Negroes
on trial-under a law that is no lon
ger in force-for alleged membership
in the International Labor Defense.
The reason for this persecution is
that the Madagascar I. L. d. has
taken up the defense Of the NADIA
gascar victims OF French imperial
ism's bloody dictatorship. All cor
dependence with Paris has been de-
MED them, all letters and newspap-
ers being confiscated by the post Of
flee officials.
\ Less than a year ago, the French
bourgeoisie closed the vast Colonial
Exposition in Paris, designed to show
to the world the "civilizing effects"
OF French imperialism. Native colo
mails were imported from Indo-Chi-
ma, Morocco, the Sahara, and NADIA
gascar to exhibit native life to the
! Parisians. Less than year after
this exposition, the French are try
ing to suppress revolt of the ma
tives in Morocco, and the telegram
printed above sheds sudden light on
the barbarous oppression in another
French possession, an island that is
practically never IN the worlds news.
France. the mother of civilization"
rs the French bourgeoisie likes to call
It, ranks with the worst in1perialist
exploiters Of colonial peoples. The
workers of France, and the American
workers with them, must defend their
Madagascar brothers from murder
and determination. Protest to the
French Embassy in Washington and
to the French Consul General IN New
York against this ne woppression!

DRASTIC CHANGE
IN BANK LAWS
WILL BE URGED
Leslie'S Commission Also to
Present Bill for Action
by Legislature.

Revolutionary changes in the
state banking law will be recon-
mended by the survey commissions
report to be presented to Governor
Harry G. Leslie, it was reported
today.
The commission report, to be
made officially in two weeks, will be
accompanied by a bill to bring about
the changes for action by the 1888
legislature.
The bill would abolish the pres
ent banking department and char
ter board set-up. In its stead would
be a commission appointed by the
Governor, consisting Of four mem
bers, not more than two of the
same political faith.
One of the commissioners would
represent the Indiana Bankers As
ISOLATION and another would be
nominated by the Savings and
Loan League. The, other two would
be chosen to represent the public
The board would serve without
pay and appoint chief of new
department of financial institutions.
He would choose subordinate de-
partment heads, with commission
approval.
Departments would include banks
and trust companies, building and
lean, and small loans. These divi-
sions are present under the depart
ment now functioning, but the chief
is appointed directly by the Gov
ernor.
The charter board now consists
of the Governor, secretary of state
and state banking commissioner.
Under the proposed plan the
commission would have all charter
powers and also would be given
power to draw rules governing bank
regulations, including special orders
during emergencies. Review of
these actions would be possible by
appeal to circuit or superior courts.
Receiverships would be handled
by the commission and liquidation
could be ordered, subject to court
review.

BEHIND BARS AZ
YEARS, CONVICT
LOVES WORLD
State Man EduCates Him
self, Viewpoint Charitable
and UnpreiudiCed.

William L. Benson, who has
served longer in prison than any
other living Indiana convict, holds
no malice in his heart after his
forty-two years in Michigan City
prison.
While the world outside has
moved forward at a whirling pace,
Benson has been educating himself,
until his viewpoint on life has be-
come unprecedented and charitable,
prison officials report.
His record appears in files OF
Michael Foley, indianapolis attor-
ney and prison board members.
A youthful love affair stacked the
losing cards against Benson when
he was Is.
Sentenced in 1889
In 1889 he was sentenced to death,
which meant hanging in those days.
Because he loved girl, Benson
killed an aged Floyd county farm
err, and was convicted of murder
in the Floyd circuit court at New
Albany. Only one official who
handled the case, George H. voigt,
prosecutor, is living.
The girl, an adopted daughter of
the farmer and wife, for whom
Benson, worked as farm hand,
had refused to marry Benson as
long as her foster parents lived.
The sentence was committed to
life Imprisonment when Benson's
mother came to indianapolis from
the Floyd county poor farm and
pleaded on Bonded knees before
Governor Hovey.
That was forty-two years ago.
Could Not Read or Write
Now, Benson, white-haired and
stopped, works in the kitchen at
the prison.
Reared with his mother at the
poor farm, Benson could not read
or write when he was admitted to
prison and took the number 366.
The number signifies he is veteran
prisoner. Inmates numbers have
reached the 900 mark.
Benson has been in prison SO long
he never has seen, an airplane, rid
den in an automobile, nor beheld
the hundred other wonders of this
| age.
