The Bidding

The South hand contains five
quick tricks, but is a long way
from being a two bid under the
one over one system.
1t does not qualify as an origi-
nal two no trump forcing bid, as
il does not have a five-card suit,
and of course it does not come in
the three no trump classes as it can
not guarantee game without any
assistance flom partner.
However, in the one over one
system, We do have a bid that
shows a much stronger hand than
an original suit bid Of one, and
that is a Did Of one no trump.
This bid can be made with bid
dable four-card suit-or even, at
times, with f1ve-card suit
Today's hand has a strong four
card major, but the hand should
be opened with one no trump, to
inform partner that you have a
fine hand-one in which perhaps
every suit is stopped and in addi-
ton, that your hand contains ten
ace positions.
If South opens with one no
trump, North will bid two no
trump and South then will carry
the contract to three no trump.

SEAMEN ON TRIAL
TOMORROW MORN

NEW YORK.-The Trade Union
Unity Council and the Unemployed
Councils of Greater New York issued
statement today in behalf Of the
81 seamen in Jail for resisting evic-
ton from the Jane st. "Y'' mission
last week when the officials tried
to enforce the closing Of that insti-
tuition.
The statement reads in part:
1.-THE attacks upon the unemploy
ed of New York by Tammany in
the Home Relief Bureaus and the
attempts of seamens relief agencies
to cut off all relief come at the
same time
1.-THE heroic action of the Jane
st. seamen whose fight has sue
ceeded in keeping this shelter open
for few hundred of thousands Of
jobless seamen must be supported
by every employed and unemployed
worker.
"The employed workers among
the longshoremen and seamen must
see that unity of action with the
jobless is imperative. The dismissal
of 1900 members of the Leviathan
crew is clear exposure Of the fact
that conditions are worsening at
the very time when Roosevelt and
the press claim they are improving
and justifying the attack upon the
relief and wages of the workers.
It is already known that the long
shoremen face another wage-cut.
The Tammany courts are trying
to deny these jailed seamen the
right Of public trial. Every worker
must see to it that he does every
thing possible to secure their acq-
Initial. The jefferson Market caurt-
room and outside the court as well,
must be filled with workers, de-
monstrating their solidarity with
these fighting seamen."
The trial Of these workers will take
place Thursday morning in the JEFF
ferson Market court, 10th st and 6tf
Ave. at 10 a. m.

The Rote Fahne was sold out every
where. The workers were not the
only ones who had waited for it.
Kurt ran through the ElsaSser
Street. The nearer he came to the
Bulowplatz. the more frequently he
saw red flags flying from the win

A heavy lorry filled with police
rushed by. They had rifles in their
hands. and machine gun peeped
from under the last bench. Pale, bag

in his temples.

FUSIONISTS TO

MAYORALTY RUN
Group ofBankersWant
City Government to
Be Cheaper

NEW YORK, May 16.---Fusionists
vino have been busy trying to hold
their forces together long enough to
agree on a candidate against the
Tamnany choice for the mayoralty
election announce that Samuel Sea-
bury is their choice. Seabury. how
ever, says he doesn't care to run.
This is regarded as merely an ex-
cuse to postpone definite announce
ment while the Wall Street bankers
back of the fusion outfit try to whip
up sentiment for him.
Conducted walker Investigation
Seabury was the examining prose-
cuaor in the Investigations of graft
in connection with the Tammany
city administration of James j.
Walker, who resigned under fire
before the Investigation YVES COM
pleted.
Certain Wall Street bankers, who
hold heavy investments in city bonds
wanted TO obtain cheaper govern
ment and started fight against
Tammany graft. They considered
that Tammany and its army of
hang rs-on ought to be reduced 50
that there would be more money
left to pay the bankers.
Before the investigation had gone
far it involved all Tanmany connec-
tons. including Roosevelt, who was
at that time striving to get the NOM
nation as presidential candidate
Rooscve'-, then Governor Of New
York. RETAINED from removing
walker after overwhelming evidence
Of his corruption had been uncov-
cred, and permitted him to resign
thus closing the case and stoppine
the probe that would have involved
the presidential candidate.

Railroad Five Negroes
to Florida Chain Gang

GREENVILLE, Fla, May 15.--Five
Negroes we're given life terms on the
terrible chain gang Of the South last
week in this city. They were arrested
together with two white men when
they we're all found together in a
freight train. The body Of brake
man had been found beside the
tracks and the Negroes of course,
we're accused Of his death.
The white men were released al
most Immediately and the Negroes,
as is usual in the South, put through
the third degree to make them sign
a confession" They we're tried and
convicted within a few hours. Life

read and read, till the letters seemed
to dance. His weary and inflamed
eyes burned. But for the first time he
felt calm, quite calm. Now he knew
everything was in order! Last night
had not been in vain.
AS he turned and went slowly back
across the square he felt ashamed OF
| the terrible fear which had overcime
him. He had been ridiculous he
thought, indignant with himself. On
the way here he had heard workers
swearing at the Communists, beliey-
! ing all the lying newspapers wrote,
believing that only thieves and rogues
| had fought in the KoslinerstraSse and
/ ia Neukolln. He had feared that all
might think the same. Now he saw
that it was the old tactics Of the s..
/ P. D. and the bourgeoisie to describe
all really revolutionary workers as
| down and-outs and criminals when
ever there was a real class fight, in
1 order to prevent the united action of
the whole working class.
Now with this inner calmness he
! relaxed. He felt how tired and hun
CRY he was. 1t was really psyche
logical reaction. He took the next
| tram back to the alley.
In countless factories and works
protest meetings were held in the
course of the day. The cigarettes
works Manoh, Massary and Josetti
with $500 male and female workers
was the first large factory to declare
a protest strike, the transformer
works, Ober -Schoneweide, with 1900
workers, unanimously followed the
instructions of the red May Day COM
n1ittee The North German Ball
bearing Works joined. At o'clock
| in the afternoon the workers of the
Lesser shoe factory, mostly women,
downed tools. The 400 shoe workers
Of the firm of Huta, Ltd, announced
a protest strike for tomorrow.
The papers reported from the Ruhr
area that leaflets on the events in
Berlin had been distributed at all pit
heads in Bottrop and Osterfeld. The
greater part of the workers stopped
work at once and demanded the call
ing of a general strike A factory
council conference representing n
factories in Halle decided to call a
twenty-four hour protest strike on
Saturday. The miners of the large
pit Thyseen III in Hamborn refused
to enter the pit. At the Prosper II
pit the workers enforced the closing
of pits II and III. From all parts of
the Reich came the news OF protest
strikes in works and factories. All
the builders in Berlin were out. The
workers in all five factories in one
street Joined in a common protest
strike. On the evening of May End
fifteen overcrowded mass meetings
were held in the largest halls in Ber-
lin. All street cells of the Party met
The Red Front Fighting League and
the Red Young Front called all their
members together.
In the Reichstag after the s. P. D.
and the other bourgeois parties had
refused to discuss the May Day oc-
currences, the Communist fraction
sang the International and broke
up the sitting. Outside, in the streets
of Berlin, the police were shooting.
During protest demonstration in
Neukoelln three more workers were
shot and twenty badly wounded
Reichswehr and artillery were rr1obi-

the needle trades strike led by the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial

This production is in no sense to
be regarded as a revival Of Broad
way failure. Despite the short lived
sojourn Of this play in its rendition
by the Group Theatre in December,
1881, it nevertheless remains as one
of the most significant plays to have
appeared on Broadway for many
years, and certainly as the outstand-
ing achievement of that organization
The paralyzing air Of Broadway

new SALES TAX
FOR ILLINOIS

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, May ia
new sales tax bill, designed to meet
the objections Of the supreme court
which declared the last one tlncon-
stitutional, is being prepared by the
administration Of Governor Homer.
The decision of the supreme court
declaring the previous bill unconsti-
tutional was on the grounds that the
bill was discriminatory inasmuch as
it did not include a tax upon gaso-
line and upon farm products sold dir
ect to the consumer by farmers.
New Bill More Drastic.
The provisions Of the new bill are
far more drastic than the previous
one and compel the farmer to record
his direct sales to consumers by the
roadside and other means Of traffic.
