Attention!

We again call on our worker cor
respondents to send material to
the Daily Worker to expose the
war preparations that are now
being made in the factories and
mills throughout the u. S. A.
Especially do we want to hear
from the metal workers, chemical
workers, arsenal workers, seamen,

and telegraph workers.
Watch for shipments of arms
and munitions. Write about this
phase of war preparations. Urge
your friends to write about the
schemes of the bosses to drag the
workers into a new war.
Tell us what the socialists are
doing to aid the bosses in their
war plans. What Is the attitude of
the workers In your shop or neigh
borhoOd on war? What are the
workers saying about the Soviet
Union? What do the workers
think about Litvinoff's speech In
Geneva?
These and many other important
questions on war should be dealt
with by our worker correspondents.
Now, workers, get busy. Fight

Miner Calls for Rank

Committee
prepare New Strike"
Is Not Allowed to Put
Program Completely

POOTSVILLE, Pa, April 1.
The miners strike in the
Anthracite District 9 collapsed.
Last night the General Mine
Board of the United Mine
Workers met in special session. Re-
ports came from basic locals in the
Shenandoah and Shamokin sec
lions, the backbone Of the strike.
They voted to go back to work.
The General Mine Board officials
are blaming district officials for the
loss of this strike, saying that Martin
Brennan, President Of the UMWA
District 9, called state troopers in to
break the strike. The General Mine
Board went on record for govern
ment investigation on necessary
wages and working conditions in the
mines.
Herman, q miner and delegate to
the General Mine Board, exposed the
fake strike leadership and the gov
eminent INVESTIGATION as a political
bluff. H pointed out the danger of
placing confidence in the capitalist
politicians who would do the Gin
vestigation."
In order to prepare for a success
full strike, he offered the proposal to
elect broad rank and file COM
mittee of not less than Is, and five
from each local to compose a central
strike committee. He also proposed
clear cut program based on the
re-establishment of previous working
conditions and scale of wages in the
mines as specified in the agreement.
The program included the demand Of
81 week from coal operators for re-
lief Of the unemployed miners, to be
paid by the mine where tn men
worked last.
Before Herman had chance to
outline the program completely, he
was barred from the floor The Gen
eral Mine Board would not permit a
miner to present the truth Of the
situation.

One day Kolchak rookie said his

The Reds said to Kolchak, "F'or
every private you shoot we will get
an officer" So Kolchak killed no
more prisoners.
Corporal Executes Workers.
One morning we got orders to en-
train for small settlement. When
we got to Romanovka, upon orders
from the officers, we rounded up the
males and held II or IS as prisoners
or hostages. But corporal and an
other volunteered to execute two of
them as an example or lesson or
whatever it is you do to terrorize
people. The remainer were sent tc
Schkotova for trial and when Kol-
chalk turned them all loose we felt
pretty cheap.
But the people were all used to
being terrorized and said we were
not to blame, it was the capitalist
System which was at fault.
Finally we were withdrawn. We
will always remember Siberia and
the Russian people as our friends.
We did not understand what 1t was
all about in those days, but today
we know why we were sent to Rus
STA. Soldiers and workers must learn
who their real enemies are. When
the bosses Of Wall Street send us to
fight against the Soviet Union or
other countries we will know what
to do next time. We will refuse to
fight against our fellow workers and
turn THE guns against the bosses.

The majority by means Of which
the sales tax was defeated was such
that shift of SO votes and an even
split among the Representatives who
did not vote last week would be suf-
ftcient to finally pass the sales tax.
The collapse Of the opposition" to
the sales tax after the midnight
meeting Of the Wall st. bankers
three days ago makes it extremely
possible that the ground is now being
prepared for a possible retreat Of the
La Guardia group when the sales tax
comes up again.
Representative Rainey has already
announced that he will deman sep
arate vote on the Doughton amend
ment to the revenue act. This
amendment struck out the first
paragraph Of the sales tax thereby
killing it.

BY AN EX-SERVICEMAN.
Member of u. S. Expeditionary
Forces in VIadivOstok.)

When we arrived in VladivoStok
the city was quiet and subdued as
though every body had gone fishing.
Stores were closed and iron shut
tered. Business was gone.
The Red Cross warehouse over
flowed with clothes, mouldy and rot
ting. Clothes, given by small chap
tiers throughout the U. S., stayed in
the warehouse or was given to SOL
diers
One way these clothes got to those
who needed them was by the soldiers
stealing them, but as the guard was
only a squad of men and cor
poral you couldn't expect wide dis
tribution Immediately. One man
could only carry off dozen sweat
erS, socks or drawers, size 46, Won1-
ems wollen, from Terra Haute chap
ter, Iowa, or Duluth, and Montana.
One man put on II sweaters and a
green mackinaw once but he was a
small man and they didn't show
beneath his sheep skin overcoat.
We soldiers had warm clothes. On
armistice day, 1918 we paraded
Svetlanskia in Vladivostok dressed in
fur hats and sheep hides which
brought out the sweat, for the cold
weather had not yet set in.
In the spring of 1919 we moved
out to the country. There was a
strike of coal miners at the Suchan
mines and some of the 31st Infantry
went up to Schkotoya to help Kol-
chalk draft his army. Helping Kol-
chak meant going into the small set
tlements in the hills, disarming the
workers and telling them we were
their friends. Then Kolchak came
and drafted them. He never had the
same support in his own land that
the capitalist press in America gave
him. Naturally we had to guard his

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 1.

while the rest Of the National

Kentucky coal fields returned to
New York, presented a list of
charges against the officials Of
Kentucky and Tennessee yesterday
to Senators Costigan, Copeland and
Logan of Kentucky.
The student committee, In a re-
port lasting for more than an hour,
outlined the manner in which they
had been stopped on the road by.
an armed band of coal thugs, sher-
ifs and armed business men and
forced to turn back.
The students charged that nei-
Their the state governments Of Ken
lucky and Tennessee, nor the Fed
eral government at Washington took
any steps to guarantee their safety
from possible lynchIng while on
theri trip.
They further claimed that the
armed attack on the student dele
cation was carried out because Of
the fear of the coal operators that
the students would see the actual
conditions of starvation and terror
that the Kentucky miners live I'M
der.
Demand for immediate action for
an investigation of conditions In
the Harlan and Bell Counties was
put forward by the committee.
Throughout the charges, the stud
entS emphasized the fascist nature
of the acts committed against them
and protested against the solid
lineup of the state and Federal
governments with the Kentucky
coal operators.
