BULLETIN
An exhibition drill before police Of
ficials from many cities will be given
by the Boston Police Department on
April %, in the Common to instruct
them in the use Of tear gas, riot
guns, sub-nachine guns" against mill
liant workers demonstrations.
Police squads will take the place Of
"rioting mobs' in the exhibition so
that when policemen are in the role
of putting down disturbances" they
will be able properly to use all these
murderous weapons and to beat. kill
and gas the working masses.
BOSTON, Mass, April 13.-An
working class organizations are elect
ing delegates to the State Hunger
March Conference which is to take
place here this coming Sunday, April
II, pm, at ISL Washington st.
This conference is to speed up the
final preparations for the State Hun
ger March in which $50 workers will
participate. All fraternsl organiza-
tons, unions, etc, that did not elect
their delegates to the Conference, are
urged to do so Immediately.
Waltham Mayor Forced TO Ask Arm
DRY for Marchers
Mayor Patrick j. Duane OF Wal
than, who was forced by mass pres
sure TO grant the demands of the
State Hunger March Committee to
provide for $50 marchers on their
way to Boston on May and 2, ap-
piled for the State Arnory TO Major
O'Brian. The major refused to give
the armory and told the mayor that
the march is sponsored by Commu-
nistS.
Mayor Duanes comment was that
mot everybody accused of being 8
Communist was really one" and that
sit is q convenient accusation for
persons with fun larders and pleth-
ora Of money in the bank"
These small town officials, under
the growing militancy of the starv-
ing workers for whom not q penny
of relief is provided, are forced to
make demagogic gestures and even
grant some demands.
Families Told to Leave Town
AS the preparations for the State
Hunger March go on, new instances
of mass starvation are brought TO
light.
Governor Ely said there was no
starvation in Massachusetts,, The
brave governor did not think that
his own officials were going to ex-
pose his lie, The Weymouth town Of
ficials decided that the unemployed
workers families are not to get re-
| lief, but mass election.
Fifty families who applied for re-
lief we're told to get out of town, and
seek relief in the place they came
from years ago. If they do not &c
voluntarily, the families were told
they will be elected summary with
furniture and other belongings,
This drastic order was adopted al
town meeting a month ago on the
ground that these families did moi

years ito obtain settlement there"
Evidently the Weymouth officialEins
tended to throw off their response
bility by ejecting the workers who
are badly in need Of immediate re
lief.
This is additional proof Of the mis-.
cry and starvation existing In Masss-
chusetts. which will be exposed by

Ohio Bosses Plan
Dynamite Frame-Up
William Green Offers
Aid in Plan

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 15.--
With seven workers dead as the
result of an explosion which
wrecked the State Office Building
here, the boss press, city officials
mad A. F. of L, takers are prepar-
ing to start dynamite frame-up
against militant workers.
Immediately following the trag-
edy which murdered seven workers,
the local press began printing news
of labor disturbances" during the
construction Of the building.
Offers of assistance in the pro-
posed frame-up was made by VIII
liam Green, president of the A. r.
of L., in telegram sent to Cove
ernor White of Ohio. The telegram
read; Il respectfully urge an inn
mediate thorough and complete in
vestigation Of the accident be insti~
tuted and carried on by the prop
erly constituted authorities"
Dynamite charges against mill
tant workers in such cases serve
two purposes; they offer a conve-
nient excuse for frame-up and
they serve to cover what is the
usual cause of such accidents
the Speedup system and the lack
of proper safety devices on the job.
