BELLEVILLE, Ill.--The business

of Saline County, have asked tho
county officials to discontinue relief

THE pamphlet "Technocracy and
Marxism" supplies us with
number of quotations from the
Communist Manifesto and other
sources which prove conclusiVely
that the Technocrats do not UNDER
stand the real nature of capitalism
Although the economic crisis, now
in it's fourth year, has shaken their
confidence in the wstem, they only
see superficial facts. The captains
of industry and finance whom these
scientists and technicians served
faithfully for decades, have shown
themselves incapable of steering
the ship through the troubled
waters. The technicians and
scientists are disappointed in their
masters. The only logical thing
they can see is for engineers and
other technicians to take the rud-
der and sail the ship of capitalism
safely. They do not see that at
the bottom of the criSis ard the
source of all the troubles in society
is the chief basic contradiction of
capitalism, namely the contradic-
ton between socialized production
and capitalistic appropriation of
the products produced by the work.
ers. This contradiction, which
gives to the mode of production
it's capitalistic character, contains
the. germ of the whole of the social

the following.

THE burning problem confronting
L the Illinois coal miners is to
unite the rank and file members of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea and the Progressive Miners of
America and unemployed miners in
one common, solid united front
against the attacks of the coal OPP
orators and Governor Horner. To
successfully establish a united front
of action against starvation, hun
ger, terror and persecution of the
miners, it is necessary to concen-
trate the main attack upon the
leadership of the U.MW.A. and
PIMA, which is instrumental in
carrying out the orders of the coal
operators and Governor Homer.
The following are some recent
developments in the Illinois coal
fields: John l.. Lewis and John
H. Walker, international and dis
trict presidents Of the UNIV "A,
signed an agreement with the Illi-
nois coal operators for continuation
of the present agreement of IS a
day wage scale for two more years,
that is, until March 81, 1895. This
agreement was signed by the Off
cialdom of the U.M.W.A. without
the knowledge or consultation of
the membership of the U.M.WA.
and the membership has been de-
MED the right to express their
opinion. The reasons for this are

KNEW AGREEMENT
WOULD BE DEFEATED

The coal operators and the Off
cialdom of the U.M.W.A. are con-
scious Of the fact that this agree
ment would be defeated if sub
mitted for decision to the member
ship of the U.M.W.A., as it was
twice defeated in referendum in
1882. AS to the objectives of this
agreement it is very clearly stated
both by the coal operators and the
officialdom of the U.M.W.A. "The
Wall Street Journal OF Dec. %.
1882, declares:
"The labor troubles which fol-
lowed the signing of the present
contract appear to be completely
settled"
John l.. Lewis declares:
The signing of the agreement
demonstrates that there is room
for only one union and it will en-
sure peace and stability in the nH-
nois coal fields at least until 1885,"
GO the operators and the Official
" dom of the U.M.W.A. openly
proclaim that the main aim is to
Keep the masses of miners in sub
mission to their dictunl-that is.
submission to starvation and hum
ger which prevails throughout the
coal fields in Illinois.
The miners who are members Of
the PIMA, also working under the
So day agreement the same as
the U.M.W.A., look upon the pres
emit agreement which expires On
March 3D. 1888, as a temporary
agreement and that with its expira-
ton the miners will fight for the
Old wage scale of 500 day. The
membership of the U.M.WA. is
likewise against the extension of
the present agreement for two more
years. Because of this, Governor
Horner, acting in the interests of
the coal operators, is having secret
conferences with the officialdom Of
the U. M. w. A., Lewis, Walker.
Nesbitt and the officialdom of the
P. M. a., Percy and Keck, to bring
about the consolidation of the lead
ership OF both these unions for the
purpose Of putting over the two
year agreement despite the miners.
The officials Of the UM.W.A. and
PIMA. already openly betrayed the
miners by agreeing with Governor
Horner to stop all picketing in the
mines now on strike, particularly
mines OF the Peabody Coal Co., to
disarm the strikers, and that the
National Guard remain which is
protecting the strike breakers re-
cruited by the U.M.W.A. Official
dom from different parts of the
country, who are working in the
Peabody Coal mines in Christian
County.

Explaining that business in gen

BabSon submitted three point pro-

exemption of Surtax payments for
the following:
l. Money spent in increasing the

2. Money spent on building homes
not exceeding $4,000 in value.
g. Money advanced to meet in

The dropping off Of this Surtax.
Mr.. BabSon said, would mean that
1t would cost the government about

BEAUTY slain,
KNIFE P|NNING
HER TO FLOOR
Cross Carved in Forehead
of 18-Year- Old Girl,
Killed at Bakery.
BIZ Initfd Press

By United Press
BOSTON. Dec. 21.-I'he body of
beautiful 18-year-old girl was
found pinned to the floor of a
bakery by bread knife through her
throat early today
A second knife had been used to
carve a cross in her forehead.
The victim was Ethel zuckerman,
who recently graduated from high
school and went to work in the
bakery of Benjamin Bickofsky which
is near Bostons Chinatown. The
body was discovered by two of her
friends.
Today, police broadcast request
for the arrest for questioning of a
21-year-old musician, described as
Dick Brown. They said they under
stood that he was the sweetheart
or a former sweetheart of the slain
girl.
Detectives said they were COM
pletely mystified. The girl had been
alone in the bakery during the
evening. Bickofsky said SO was
missing from the cash register, but
police did not believe robbery was
the motive.
Found by Young Friends
A former taxi driver who visited
the bakery nightly to buy stale
bread for his dog was sought for
questioning, although detectives
said there was nothing to connect
him with the crime except that he
had made his usual visit. Earlier,
the girl had telephoned her en-
ployer that he was there but there
was no stale bread. She was told to
give him fresh
Four bakers were at work on the
floor below, but they told police
their bread machines prevented
them from hearing any screams,
which might have come from above
A heavy rain was falling and the
street outside was deserted when
Bessie Stern, Is, and Alexander
Polishronis, Is, arrived at the shop
They saw no one there. Bessie
moved farther into the store, and
found the body
The victim lay on her back. Near
by was the second knife-the one
which had been used to slash the
cross on her forehead.
Gang Theory Discarded
Police said the cross resembled
that slashed on gangland victims
to designate a double croSser At
the same time they expressed doubt
that it was an underworld killing.
Ethefs body was clad in an apron
like dress. One of her shoes was
found several feet away and police
said there were other signs of a
struggle. Preliminary examination
indicated the girl was not criminally
attacked. Medical Examiner Tim
othy Leary ascribed death to sew
erance of the jugular vein and OF
the medulla oblongata, the dubious
continuation of the spinal cord in
the skull.
A theory that rejected sutton
slew Ethel was favored by Police
Superintendent Martin H. King.
Mr.. and Mrs. Louis zuckerman said,
however, they knew OF no suitors.
A few hours after the body was
found young man walked into city
hospital and asked to be treated
for a cut hand. Police questioned
him but later announced he had
been eliminated.
