With deep cuts in his face, broken
nose and left eye almost closed Paul
Brown. organizer of the Unemployed
Council Of Bayonne, N. j., came up
to the office of the Daily Worker
These wounds and clothes covered
with huge splotclies of blood testi-
fled to the brutal beating that
Brown had received at the hands of
the police Of Bayonne whom he had
approached for a permit to hold a
march and demonstration for relief
for the unemployed.
Together with representatives of
the Rentpayers & Taxpayers Pro-
tective Assn. with whom united
front fro the demonstration had been
established Brown went to the police
headquarters on Monday morning
with written request for a permit.
After waiting a little while they
we're called into room where 5
burly men faced them. Instantly
questions we're fired at them: Whats
your name, where do you live, where
do you work." Two Of the commit
tee were showed out and Brown was
left with the five men including the
chief of police, O'Neill. .ONeill i'm
mediately started to push Brown
around and beat him up. Then the
leader Of the unemployed was taken
upstairs to be fingerprinted and
photographed for the Rogues Gal
lery. On the way up a slip WIS
pushed into his hand with the words
"Wanted for Murder" on 1t. An at
tempt was being made to frame him
for killing man and a woman in
Indiana. Brown demanded a lawyer
and for doing SO was punched in the
face.
While this vicious treatment of the
worker was taking place hte public"
hearing on the budget at City Hall
was being prepared. The officials
Of this Standard Oil town were out
to keep the leader of the jobless from
smashing their plan to put across
the biggest budget Bayonne has seen
without any relicf for the starving
workers. The Donohue administra-
ton has been deceiving the workers
by saying that there are only 5000
out Of work But there really are
$4,000 jobless in this small city of
$4,000 total population and the ac-
tivity OF the Unemployed Council has
struck deep roots. The plot to keep
Brown away was admitted by the
Bayonne Times of Tuesday.
Thrown into basement cell Brown
was held in solitary confinement for
70 hours. For the first "a hours he
received no food or water. The food
on the other two days amounted to
two undrinkable cups Of coffee and
two rolls with a slice Of bologna in
each. Tuesday at mid might, Brown
suddenly heard the cries of anguish,
of agony and pain of John Kasper.
Kasper had come to inquire about
the arrest of Brown on Monday eve
ming. He also was arrested without
warrant and for no cause. Kasper is
still in bed With severe internal
injuries.

 Father Hubbard and his corn- p&nions disembarized from the ocean steamship at Kodiak. From there, in a small power boat they crossed Shelikof Strait.

The stock market displayed con-

Moderate early gains in many
instances were extended slightly
and market leaders as a group
held close to their morning high
levels. Trading was somewhat re-
stricted by the General Electric un-
certainty, and the subsequent re-
duction of the annual payment on
the common stock from $3.50 to
81, caused scattered selling.
Spectators, however, were not
deferred by this factor from bid

ton OF a hot pipe stem. Cancer of
the female genital organs IL pre-
ceded In the majority of cases by
some form of chronic inhamma-
ton. Exactly how much irritation,
or Inflammation, operates to pro-
duce cancer or to favor It's devel-
opment, Is the great question In
cancer research to-day.
while II has not yet been
proved that a person can directly
inherit cancer, 1t does occur more
frequently In some families than
others. A few forms of cancer
show distinct hereditary ten
dency, but others show no appar-
ent hereditary trace.
"All tumors, or new growths. OF
the body are divided into two
groups, the benign" which are
comparatively harmless and the
malignant" commonly called "can.
GERS" which have disastrous effects
upon the body.
1.-THE benign tumor usually grows
slowly, Is self-contained, does moi
spread throughout the body. The
malignant tumor (cancer) usually
grows rapidly, destroys tissue
spreads to distant parts of the
body, Is dangerous to life wherever
1t may grow.
1T Is very difficult to say espe.
cially In their beginning, whether
tumors are benign or malignant
whether they are cancer or not
Only the skilled physician, by thor
ough examination and numerou,
tests, Is able to determine theil

1.-THE failure to distinguish be-

STATE UTILITIES TO SPEND Fifteen MILLION
Hoover Was Called
Monumental Failure
By Jouett Shouse
Democrat Chieftain Has Only Pity for fiim-Most
Inept Man Who Sat in White House in so Years

Washington, March - Deny
ing that President Hoover was en-
titled to all the credit for the pro-
gram for economic rehabilitation OF
the country, Jouett Shouse. chair
man of the democratic executive
committee. In radio address over
the National Broadcasting System
last night, pictured Mr. Hoover as q
monumental failure" as chief ex-
ecutive. He declared that to-day
''the democratic prospects are
brighter than they have been at
any time in twenty years."
The address was intended as re-
ply to utterances by Senator Fess,
chairman of the republican nation
al committee, who spoke Tuesday
night over the radio. Mr. Shouse
pointed to the cooperation extended
by the democrats In congress in
pressing relief legislation, some OF
which, he said, had long been adj
vocated by his party.
Stating that Senator Fess had
laid present-day economic troubles
to the World War, he recalled that
the senator told his party's nation
al convention In 1928 that the re-
publicans had rescued the nation
from war confusion and placed II
on sound economic foundations.
On Lincoln's birthday, Mr. Shouse
said, spokesman of the official fam
| fly Of the president devoted them
selves to eulogy of Herbert Hoover,
and the average auditor must have
been confused as to whether 1t was
Lincoln's birthday of Hoover's that
was being celebrated.
