Peewee Buries His
Dead; Other Birds
Join In Requiem

Even the birds conduct funeral
services for their dead. Yesterday
morning, between Norbeck and
Rockville, the sad rites were being
held by Mr.. Peewee over the still
body of his mate killed by a high
tension wire.
The body had fallen on the road
way and the grief stricken, feath-
cred creature was seen tenderly re-
moving the corpse and preparing
it for burial. He finally reached a
nearby field where he was followed
by other members of the family
and the morning air was filled with
solemn music as the Catholic red
birds, the Episcopalian starlings
and the Baptist meadow larks join
ed in the dirge.

known that it is to be a real attrac-
ton. There will be brides maids,
ushers, and all the rest that go to

We quote two pertinent paragraphs
from the Commissioners letter to DR..
Bird:
"We feel that Montgomery County's
participation in the State relief pro-
gram which Governor Richie has
stated in the press that he will sub
NIT to the Maryland General Assembly
which meets in January, February and
March, 1888, will equal or exceed the
amount of your additional requirement
and we will recommend to the State
Senator and members of the House of
Delegates from Montgomery County
that they make every consistent effort
to secure adequate recognition of such
relief needs as the people of Mont
gomery County may be faced with at
the time of the meeting Of next Win
ter's session of the Maryland Legis-
lature.
Should State aid for proper and
adequate relief in Montgomery County
during the coming year prove unable
to meet the needs estimated in your
statement of July 21st, we hereby I'M
animously pledge ourselves to vote
$4,000 from the County revolving
fund as an additional support to the
relief program administered in Mont
gomery County through the Social
Service League"

The witnesses for the prosecution
were the wife OF Knoxville min

stefan.
A meeting Of the central Strike
Relief Committee was held in Knox
vile last night with Alfred Wagenk-
necht, w. R. National Secretary.
The following plans were agreed up
on. All shipments of food and cloth
ing are to be made to this commit
tee in Middlesboro, Kentucky. (The
Pineville warehouse is still occupied
by gun thugs. The workers must
not think that the terror has made
relief distribution to starving miners
impossible. This morning food was
sent to 440 families in Wallins Creek,
T45 families in Gatliff, 200 families
in Straight Creek, and $40 families
in -Four Mills. Three major distrib-
utions OF food have been made to
the strike area as whole since the
writer's committee was arrested and
kidnapped last Wednesday. The dis
tributing apparatus has been i'm
proved and protected and is now
reaching every mining camp despite
the intention Of the operators to
break the strike by disrupting relief.
The new address of the Knoxville
Workers International Relief is 80oK
North Central Avenue.
A bill introduced in the Kentucky
legislature yesterday by coal oper-
ators to cure the crisis in the coal
industry" would throw thousands of
miners out Of the industry and force
them to join the ranks of the IL
million unemployed. The bill provides
all miners must pass a stiff examin-
alton before they can take jobs. The
operators says this would also cut
down accidents in the Kentucky
mines which last year totalled ten
thousand, and in which 1914 miners
were killed. The Kentucky mine ac-
cident rate is twice the normal in
the United States, but this is due
entirely to the operators fierce speed
up and lack OF snoring. The oper-
ators have begun to mobilize Negro
nlisleaders in drive ON the ia
tional Miners Union and the Com
munist Party. Proof that the Party
program is increasingly winning the
Kentucky and Tennessee Negroes,
clearly adduced at mass meeting at
which Negro labor faker called In
Jellico, Tenn. yesterday, at which he
said, MANY Negroes are listening TO
the Reds, but they must guard care
ully against this siren song of The
Communists"
