Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch 10 The star.
PHOENIX, AriZ., September l6.
Gov. B. B. Moeur has come out
unqualifledly for complete en-
barge on foreign copper rather
than a 10-cent levy, suggested by
leading copper interests.
IF copper could be sold at IL
or IA cents a pound" the chief
executive said, every copper
mine in the State would open to
provide employment to thou
sands"
Arizona's major copper pro-
ducers aren't in accord on the
proposals for a heavy import
duty or an embargo. The big In
spiration Consolidated Copper Co.
and the Nevada Consolidated, as
sociated with the Anaconda Cop
per Mining Co.. are opposed to
protective tariff or an embargo.
On the other hand, Phelps Dodge
and Miami Copper Co.. strictly
American producers, favor either
q l0-cent tariff or an embargo.

JANE WILLIAMS
CASE COMING UP
Not Dismissed AS Was
Reported; Protest!

NEW YORK-The case Of Mrs.
Jane Williams, unemployed worker
denied relief and beaten up at Home
Relief Bureau ON 44th St, was not
dismissed, as the Daily Worker was
wrongly informed last Friday, but is
coming up TO trial in the West Side
saith st. Court, Wednesday at 9 am.
The Unemployed Council branches
on the West Side call all workers to
pack the court room Wednesday
morning in protest against this fur
ther attempt to victimize an unem-
ployed worker.
Demonstrate Tomorrow
The West Side Unemployed Coun-
Gil of 534 w. 35th st. and the Upper
West Side Unemployed Council of
419 w. SD ST., also call all workers
TO demonstrate tomorrow at II am.
at SIG W. 44th ST., against the use
of thugs and police in the Home Re-
lief Bureau.
The demonstrators will demand
that the frame-up charges against
Jane Williams be dropped. They will
demand immediate relief to all I'M
employed, and no more red tape.
Jane Williams applied for relief,
and was given nothing. After three
weeks she went back TO the bureau
to demand some action on her case.
She was slugged in the face, her hair
pulled and she was elected by force,
and then arrested on fake charges
Of disturbing the peace"
The Unemployed Council iInrnedi-
ately got busy, and the bureau, fear
ing their action, gave relief even be-
fore the trial. But Jane Williams is
still held to trial, and the Unem-
ployed Council points out:
This is not the only case Work
ers have been beaten up for de-
handing relief. The 44th st. H.R.B. is
using both red tape and police terror
to keep workers from getting relief.
1t is letting hundreds of evictions
take place. 1t is causing families to
break up, and causing children to
die of starvation" s"vy

Starlight Laundry on
Strike Again; Boss
Broke His Promises

NEW YORK.-Starlight Laundry
workers strike again this morning.
Under the leadership of the Laun-
dry Workers Industrial Union these
workers won a short strike about
three weeks ago. Part of the terms
of settlement was that there should
be no firing or discrimination, Or
wage cuts.
Last week the laundry bosses hired
gangsters and started TO intimidate
the workers. The thugs even visited
the offices of the union, and made
threats.
After this, the boss transferred one
union man to a poorer paying job.
A committee was sent to the man
ager, and got no satisfaction.

of the little daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Vesco. The funeral will start from
the home of Mr. Vesco, 2715 Harway

Police came yesterday with the I'M
dertaker, and tried to break up q
mass meeting that was being held a
short distance from the Vesco home
to expose the Home Relief Bureau
as the real cause OF the baby's death.
The police told Vesco that if he
gave his consent to the meeting 60
ing on, the HRB. would not keep its
promise forced from it by mass pres
sure, to pay the funeral expenses.
Vesco steadfastly refused to inter
fere with the meeting, and the police
gave up.
Vesco himself and his whole family
was i'll and hungry and he had been
a long time unemployed. The as
sistant Superintendent Mallon at the
Home Relief Bureau at IS st. and
Benson Ave. jeered at the father

were arrested, and their case is still
