RUMANIA TO SIGN
NON AGGRESSION
PACT WITH USSR

LONDON, July 3.-Another VIC
tory for the Soviet peace policy was
gained when Maxim Litvinoff was
able during the recesses of the Lon
don Economic Conference to arrange
for non preston past with Ru-
mania, when five other countries
joined. While the U. S. s. r. has
signed nom aggression pacts pre-
viously with Poland, Estonia, Latvia
and Finland, the Rumanian govern
ment, the keystone to the Western
anti-Soviet war alliance, remained
outside.
The fascist delegates of Germany
did all in their power to prevent the
drawing up of this aggression
pact
The new pact includes not only
Rumania, but will be signed by Po-
land, Estonia, Latvia, Finland and
Turkey. The pact will define an ag-
gressor state in the manner Litvinoff
sought to have included at the Cen
eva Conference, but which all Of the
imperialist powers refused to agree
to.

taking legal steps TO force Judge
James E. Horton to set a date for
the hearing on the write of habeas

boro boys be set free on bond. In
formation was reserved here by the
International Labor Defense that
the hearing would be held yester-

william L. Patterson, national
secretary of the LID, yesterday
announced the opening of special
campaign to raise funds to meet

Horton on the basis of mass pro-

said.
Judge Horton has been forced
to admit the innocence of the
Scottsboro boys, but he did not set
them free. Only the mass pressure
that forced this partial concession
on the part of Judge Horton can
bring the boys their freedom.
Funds for this purpose should

PITTSRuRGH Pa .Julv

PITTSBURGH, Pa, July
Although United Mine Work
ers leaders attempted to stop
their struggle, 1000 miners of
the number 8 mine of the Pitts
burgh Terminal Coal Co. in Cover
dale, Pa, went on strike today dis
satisfied with the ten per cent in
crease in wages granted by the COM
pany. The company has an agree
ment with the United Mine Workers.
Every indication points to the fact
that similar action may be taken by
No. and No. 8 of the Pittsburgh
Terminal mines, where the miners
have already taken a strike vote but
were manouvered into waiting ten
more days by U. M. w. A. officials
who raised false hopes of benefits
from the Recovery slavery Act.
Rank and file miners of number 3
taking the lead have elected their
committees for the conduct of the
strike and have organized plans for
spreading the strike and for mass
picketing.
Strikers Ignore Van Bittner
In SCOTS Run, West Virginia, a
revolt is taking place among the rank
and file in the locals of the UMWA
Although Van Bittner, UMWA Of
fetal, Is trying to hold back the strike
wave, the miners are refusing to wait
for promises and are voting to strike
in local after local. Miners are call
ing for the leadership of the National
Miners Union throughout the field.
-Four hundred miners of the Ham,
merviile mine in Allegheny Valley
struck for their own checkweighman
payment of dead work and imme-
date increase in wages.
The strike of the Lily mine near
Brownsville, Pa, was betrayed by the
UMWA leaders who succeeded in
wrestling control of the strike from
the rank and file committee. They
have returned at 10 per cent in
crease even though the company it.
self offered a 20 per cent increase
two weeks ago. The resentment is
widespread against this betrayal.

numbers 1, 2 and we're ended by
the leaders Of the UMWA who forced
the strikers to return without any
gains. The strike started when the
miners elected committee was fired
by the company which is trying tc
establish a company union in the
mines. The only demand the UMWA
leaders put forward was recognition
Of their union which was not &C
complished. Here also the miners
are now able to see that the UMWA
was not interested in improving Their
conditions.
The Hunker mine which has beer
on strike for the past few weeks
under the leadership of a united
front strike committee guided by the
National Miners Union ended in 9
victory for the miners.
Prepare for United Front Conference
The National Miners Union has
intensified its activity in all fields
and is carrying on campaign tc
expose the purposes of the Recovery
(Slavery) Act and the role of the
United Mine Workers officials.
