Inc SCrlke cannot be considered
a defeat. The strikers know that
it has aroused enthusiasm for
struggle thruout the state. In
Itasca county, county wide DEM
Onstration took place a short time
ago where one of the main de-
mands was the demand for the
recognition of Work Committees
of the farmers as in the Markham
strike.
ACTION WINS CON-
CESSIONS
The farmers have injured MANY
lessons from the strike. They
know now from practical expert
ences that the capitalist state ma
chinery, its courts, deputies, etc.,
are weapons of oppression in the
hands of the capitalists against the
interests of the working class.
They have come to find out
that the Social Fascist lead
ership in the Finnish workers
movement are enemies of the
workers and farmers, because
of their failure to support the
struggle. The Markham farm
ers fully realize now what the
Communist party, and Organi-
cations such as Left Wing Co.
Ops, United Farmers League,
Finnish Workers Federation,
Young Communist League the
Working WOman's Clubs, and
the Labor Sports Union, were
the only organizations that
gave them full support and
took an active part in the
strike.
AS a result of tire strike the
Markham farmers know that Com
missioner Victor Kosh and the
boss class in general will grant
concessions. Only through strug-
gle have the working class ever
gotten concessions from the cap
italist class. The lessons gained
from this struggle can be used
for future struggles to come. The
struggle of the Markham farmers
was a struggle for the interests
of the entire working class.
AS a continuation of the
struggle for the right To- live
the strike committee calls uu-
on all workers and farmers To
join the May Day meetings
and demonstrations against.

The Markham Strike

I stopped Koski sent deputy sherifts
to take the truck away from the
farmers, which was locally used.
Once more they decided to send a
committee to Koski, asking him to
come to a mass meeting in order
to reach an agreement with the
farmers. Kosh promised to come
to the meeting, but did not keep
his promise.
KOSKI REFUSES TO
AGREE
The Markham farmers were
militant and united. They decided
to strike, but even then they gave
Koski until 10 o'clock the next
morning to come to an agreement.
He again failed to come to an
agreement.
The strike was on in Colvin
township and vicinity. Three
trucks and one tractor were taken
into custody by the farmers and a
number of trucks WE'RE turned
back from the strike area.
KOski with his armed hire
lings instigated a reign of
terror. Thirty-seven arrests
were made, 81 were held for
trial of which ten were given
a 6 month peace bond SEN
tence of $500. Henry and Ed
Maxi were given a go day
sentence on the work farm or
800 fine, and on a second
charge they were given a 80
day sentence on the work
farm suspended for one year.
Rudolph Johnson and William
Wirtanen were meted out sen
fences of $50 fines or so
days on the work farm. An
ton Anttila was given a so
day sentence on the work
farm or $50 fine. The others
were set free.
The strikers carried on militan
) picketing thruout the strike. TIL
strike breakers resorted to the US
of guns, undoubtedly assured o
legal protection by the authorities
Shooting occurred twice, one
a striker being shot in the back.

companions who had chased

Cruces Paper -

CONTINUED from rage ID
add it to a deficit of about sew
en- thousand dollars in our water
department, and what have we
left?
"A committee was named to
investigate the proposal, but we
believe that sober consideration
of the proposal will result in the
tax-paying public turning it
down.
Further, the results of the
survey made by parties who in
tended putting in gas system
here, were not encouraging, and
they grasped the opportunity
charitably offered them by a
few suspicious citizens to escape
from their own trap.
with the uncertainty as to
what Congress is going to do,
the legislature is going to do,
and what the year 1888 is going
to be, our opinion is that it is a
poor time to climb onto the
debt wagon and load ourselves
up with more mortgages.
Another idea advanced was
to establish a municipal electric
plant. We have the same OBJ
jections to that proposition.
Las Cruces is simply not in
position to go further into debt.
If you don't believe it, call at
the city office and get wise.
Las Cruces, like so many 9TH
er towns (including Chicago)
is in the red-very red; water
plant does not pay all expences; ]
bonded Indebtedness cannot be
met; paving liens are not being
paid, etc. etc.
Perhaps we can be shown lat
ter that we're wrong, but as the
situation looks today we don't
believe so.
"If, as at present, many peo-
pie cannot pay water bills, paw
ing bills, ETC., what assurance
have we that they would be able
to pay gas or electric light bills?
And if. they did not, and the
city owned the plants, what
would we do for school money?
At the present time the corpor-
ations, whom many take plea
sure in nagging, keep our schools
open by paying their taxes when
due, in spite Of the fact that the
municipality, in turn, is not
able to return the favor by pay
ing for its services. Las Cruces
or no o'5hex- town is in position
to make war on corporations un-
til it is able to do so with
clean slate"

PUBLIC BUILDING
WORK PREPARED.
Treasury Ready to Throw
$4,000, 900 Construction
Work on Market.

To push the administrations plan
for relief of employment and recovery
of industry through the $4,000, 900, 900
public works bill. the Treasury Depart
ment is prepared to throw 100000
worth of public building construction
on the market If and when the new
measure becomes law.
In making this announcement, L. w.
Robert, j, Assistant Secretary Of the
Treasury. II charge of the Office of
Supervising Architect, said he had been
rushing his program to have projects
ready to ask for bids just as soon as
the public works bill is enacted.
Within 90 days, he predicted, under
proper authorization by Congress, he
could get another $4,000 900 worth of
construction on the market.
Office Reorganized.
The Office of the Supervising Archi-
tect, Robert said, had been 'reorgan-
ized," and the Office personnel rear
ranged to handle the rush of work.
Conferences have been held by Rob-
ert with architects. engineers and con-
struction forces throughout the United
States. His outer office is usually
filled with representatives OF these pro-
fessions, waiting to see him in connec-
ton with the Governments new con-
Struction program.
The situation, Robert said, had been
worked out so that all these forces can
cooperate with the Government to
speed up the public works program, get
ting money into the channels OF trade
as rapidly as possible.
Whereas it ordinarily would take six
to seven months to place contracts,
Robert explained, his Office now is plac-
ing new limit Of 80 to 110 days.
Headquarters Here.
Roberts organization includes dis
trict engineers and construction en-
gineers numbering about 400 scattered
all over the United States and head
quarters personnel here in Washington
of over 800 persons.
Concerning the appointment Of an
administrator of public works provided
under the new bill, Robert was non
committal. He denied knowing any
thing about administration plans for
this new organization. But he has been
going forward with his own program
in the Treasury Department to help
employment and revive industry as soon
as possible.

"statthalter" scheme saves the country
many millions. Hitler, like Roosevelt,
was able to weed out thousands of gov
ernment officials who duplicated work,
and often, in fact, threw monkey
wrenches into each others machinery.
Vast sums also are saved by calling
the Reichstag and the legislatures to-
gether for only day or two at a time
at great intervals.
When Franz Won Papen as chancellor
removed the Prussian government
headed by the Socialists, Otto Braun
and Karl Severing. on the ground that
the nations interests so demanded, he
intended merely to follow Bismarck S
policy of having the same person act
as chancellor of the Reich and premier
of Prussia. Won Papen never dreamed
of interfering with the rights of the
other federated states, especially not
Bavaria, Wurttenburg, Saxony, Baden
and Thuringia.
When the German people by an over
whelming vote turned power completely
over to the Nazis, Hitler boldly went far
beyond Bismarck and simply deposed
the existing state governments, putting
into practice his "statthalter'' scheme
No matter who may succeed Hitler
some day. it is doubtful whether any
body will ever try to undo National
Socialism's work of unifying and CEN
tralizing the government.

Rv the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
High crimes and misdemeanors in
office have now been charged to Viii
liam H. Woodin, Secretary of the
Treasury for only two and a half
months, as well as against both his
immediate predecessors and score OF
present and past Federal Reerve Off
cials.
Representative McFadden, Republic
an. Pennsylvania, leveled the charges
yesterday in the House in a move for
Impeachment of the whole group. The
House listened and filed the question
with its Judiciary Committee, which
already has a file of similar proposals
by McFadden.
Woodin's alleged crime had to do
with stopping gold redemption OF the
currency. Andrew w. Mellon and Og-
Den L. Mills and others We're pro-
nounced guilty of having robbed the
United States Government and the peo-
plc of the United States by their theft
and sale of the gold reserves OF the
United States"
Banking Again Attacked.
His face drawn. and showing signs
of nervousness, McFadden, for many
wears chairman of the Banking Com
mittee. linked his charges with a re-
neWed attack on international banking
methods iii.
The House floor was crowded with
members as he talked. The champer
showed signs of impatience to get 10
the pending business Of a final vote on
the Glass-Steagall bill.
Former Treasury Secretaries Andrew
7 Mills were
among those he charged, jointly and
severally with having robbed the
United States Government and the peo-
pie of the United States by their THEFT
and sale of the gold reserves OF the

Misuse of Gold Charged.
McFadden charged that gold re-
demption of currency was stopped ''for
the benefit of private interests foreign
governments, foreign central banks of
issue and the Bank for International
Settlements"
He asserted those he named had al
lowed the unlawful export of gold re-
serves to foreign countries and had
used it for the benefit of foreigners
and for speculative purposes abroad"
The currency expansion amendment
to the farm bill-"the unconstitutional
farm BILL" he called it-McFadden said
would enable the Federal Reserve Board
and banks ito pay more of their bad
debts to foreign governments"
