First American to Enlist

The day the imperialist war broke
out, he volunteered for service, but
was turned down because he was a

COAL OPERATORS,
U.M. WA. IN PACT
AT CODE HEARING
Borich, Smear, Speak
Today After Strong
Demand of Miners
Especial to the Daily Worker.)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O.-Altho
representatives of the National Min
ers asked to participate in the dis
cussion today, they were not placed
on the speakers list. When the
whole miners delegation put up a
demand for the right to speak, off,
Gals consented to let Frank BOrich,
secretary of the N. M. U. and Ag-
mes Smear, representa- g the Wcmen's
auxiliaries to take the floor at to-
morrow's session.
At yesterdays session all the open
shop coal operators presented their
codes in full. But at todays meet
ing a so-called general code was
presented, sponsored jointly by the
union coal operators and the UMWA
leaders. In the discussion which
followed only coal operators recog-
nizing the UMWA participated.
Frank Taplin, one of the largest
coal operators, made strong ap-
peal for the recognition of the UNI
WA, stating that unless the coal
operators recognize the UMWA they
will be faced with the growth of the
National Miners Union. He also
praised the cooperation of the UNI
WA leaders with the companies. All
the coal operators are expressing
grave doubt whether the NRA will
succeed.
The President of the Union Pa
cific Coal Company said, I'VE will
maintain our relations with the UNI
WA and will help them in desire
that they will not be replaced by
some other rival organization mean
ing the NMU.
John L. Lewis, President of the
UMWA. spoke for two hours, pledg-
ing to the coal operators the fullest
cooperation of the UNWA for the
Sterilization of the coal industry.
The coal operators presented the
following figures in regard to the
operation of the mines:
In 1922, over $500 mines were In
operation, while at the present time
only 5000 are operating. They adj
NIT that 43 per cent of the miners
are totally unemployed.
Lewis, on the other hand, claims
that the UMWA has 100000 mem
bers, while according to the figures
of the coal operators, a little over
100000 miners are now employed.
Lewis also claims six thousand lccal
unions, while the coal operators in
sist that c-liy five thousand mines
are open.

AMSTERDAM, N. 1.-TWO hun
dred milk farmers, most of whom are
now on strike, met Tuesday night
at the Perth High School, Perth, N.
T., to discuss the strike situation and
setting up real rank and file farm
ers' organization in Fulton County
The striking farmers decided they
would stick until they win. SO far
all milk has been stopped from en-
tering Amsterdam, and the pickets
are patrolling the highways for scab
milk.
The efforts Of the statewide lead

to damnen the farmers militancy has
not succeeded.

to work
No one has convinced the miners
that it was wrong to strike and that
it is the right thing to do to re-
turn to work and await the results
Of arbitration.
For the time being miners are
yielding to superior force. This is
the situation as the third phase Of
this hectic struggle comes to an end.
Probably in no other struggle of this
size have the propaganda forces of
the coal operators and the State and
Federal Government been brought to
bear so heavily upon workers. The
POST Gazette" a Prick company
paper, has been distributing one
hundred thousand copies daily in
the strike area.
Today gives an almost unprece-
dented example of demagogy in an
editorial entitled Simply an Appeal
to Reason" In which this steel trust
sheet argues for the right to strike
and attempts to placate the miners
by claiming that the right to strike
is specifically guaranteed in the Ma
tional Recovery Act.
There can be no question regard
ing the panicky feeling among coal
operators, their press and authorities
as result of the demonstrated fact
that it has required practically the
unlimited use of force and persuasion
to secure the return to work under
conditions which, with the miners
cycling the hardboiled acts and ut
terances of the operators at the
Washington hearings and drawing
conclusions lay the basis for another
strike struggle.
Reports from all sections OF the
field are that National Miners Union
leaf1et with its six demands includ-
ing recognition of mine committees,
as we'll as distribution of Daily
Workers, met with such great re-
spouse. Both were circulated openly
in the heart of H. G. Prick Coke Co.
territory by strikers with deputies
and coal and iron police unable to
prevent it.
Prick Mines are already refusing
to recognize elected check weighmen
such as Martin Ryan who played a
prominent part in the strike.
1t is already apparent that the
clause regarding no discrimination
toward strikers on return to work,
which was the central talking point
Of McGrady, Pinchot agents and
UMWA officials, is not worth a
plugged dine. Blacklisting is already
taking place.
The Prick Company and other OPP
orators are so anxious to smash the
rank and file movement that they
are not even waiting until the full re-
turn to work or the result of the
Washington hearings. In this way
they prove to the miners that the
National Miners Union slogans of
Continue the Strike Until All De-
mands Are Won" and THE Union
in the Hands of Rank and File Com
mittees," was the only correct line of
struggle.
1t must be emphasized that the
strike Of the Prick miners was the
centre of the struggle and that many
thousand miners in other fields were
entirely conscious that their strike
was in support of the Prick struggle.
In this respect this strike is on far
higher level than most of other mass
battles.

BUMPER ATTACHMENTS
ARE HELD DANGEROUS
Commissioner Baughman to Probe
New Auto Device on Recon-
mendation of Lucius.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 2.-1nvesti-
cation Of the danger possibilities of q
new auto bumper attachment which
has recently made its appearance in
Maryland is being made by Col. E. Aus
tin Baughman, commissioner of motor
vehicles.
Attention to the dangers Of the new
device was called by H. M. Lucius, sec
retary of the Auto Club of Maryland, in
letter to Col. Baughman.
There is one thing which has come
to my attention recently" the letter
states, "and which I believe seriously
jeopardizes the safety Of any person
who may be struck by an auto and
which also obstructs the view Of the
license tags on the front Of the cars.
II refer to the attachments now in
use, fastened to auto bumpers on the
front and rear, projecting from 6 to 8
inches above and below the bumper
The object of these attachments is evi-
IDENTIFY to protect a parked car from
possible contact with another car, the
bumper of which may be higher or
lower than that of the first car.
''If any one were struck by . car
equipped with these attachments, espe-
cially If they are pointed, as some are,
it would materially add to the possible
injury that would result.
1T would respectfully request that you
give this some consideration, with the
possibility Of discouragtng the use OF
these attachments"
Col Baughman sent an investigator
to confer with Mr.. Lucius and to make
an inspection of the new attachment.
He deferred making any statement un-
til he receives report Of the investi-
cation.

The Times Of India" record
ing this revolution, says that In
1918 frequent glances in . mirror
were considered immodest. The
use Of face powder was stud1ously
avoided. The broad saffron streak
on the forehead constituted the
Hindu woman's only makeup"
while her oiled hair was either
plated into a pigtail at the back
or done up In a knot.

Speaking Of oil reminds me Of the
experience Of woman who found that
after driving about so miles on a trip
the engine needed three quarts Of oil
to bring the level back to normal. She
feared leak in the motor and spent
an hour with roadside mechanic who
could find nothing wrong. This was her
rather uninviting way Of discovering
that when the car Is driven hard any
diluent in the oil burns of. In other
words, what registered as oil often is
nothing but raw gasoline, water and
acids.

Pythons Not Welcome.

The proposal in Australia that py-
thons be imported to reduce the plague
of rabbits is meeting with strong oppo-
sition. Advocates of the plan declare
that Mexican farmers employ these
large reptiles as "vermin scarers" and
have found them particularly effective
in dealing with rabbits. Opponents say
that previous importations to fight pests
have proved disastrous, and If rabbits
became scarce the pythons might turr
their attention to live stock.
