THE STUDENTS FAREWELL
Good Evening.

------
Fond students and classmates,
Must we say the farewell
For love has thrown round us
Its magical spell
With halo of gladness,
A trance of delight.
But, oh! who can breathe it;
We are parting tonight.
Together we have gathered
Round the fountain of JOY
And quaffed the bright waters
That never will eloy.
We have gathered from wisdom
Gems pearly and bright.
But no longer we gather,
We are parting tonight.

Meetings

HELPER, Utah, Sept. 24.-Hearings
on the criminal syndicalist charges
against Charles Guynn, Charles
Whetherbee and Paul Crouch, lead
ers of the National Miners Union
leading the coal strike here, opened
Friday. The main evidence against
the defendants was that they ad-
vised the miners to hold picket lines
All the defendants were bound
over for trial to the District Court
Guynn and Whetherbee were held
on $4,000 bond each. Crouch ap-
peared In court on an arraignment
on the charge Of rioting Wednesday
and was arrested in the court
on the charge Of criminal syndi-
calism. He was held in jail until late
Saturday when he was released on
$4,000 bond.
Mass protests and the exhaustion
of county funds forced the removal
of the majority of gunner and per-
mission for the N.MU. to hold mass
meetings, local meetings and dances.
Previously an order was issued pre-
venting even ball games and dances.
All organizers and strikers are now
freed on bonds. Hundreds of cases
are before the courts, and every
effort is being made to railroad
Guynn, Whetherbee and Crouch to
long sentences on criminal syndi-
calist and riot charges.
The trials will last weeks or
months, and defense funds are urg-
emily needed.
The position Of the N.M.U. has
been greatly strengthened as re-
suit of the strike.

All sorts Of tactics were used to
keep the men from taking the strike
vote, and the vote was delayed for
two hours. But the miners rejected
all orders OF John L. Lewis and
other UMWA officials were voted

Reports from the mine fields
throughout the country, which the
capitalist press is for the most part
suppreSsing, indicate that over 100,-
900 coal miners in the bituminous
fields will be on strike Monday In
protest against the soft coal code and
the slave wage agreement signed by
John L. Lewis, the coal operators and
President Roosevelt
Around 10000 were on strike up
to Saturday, but at dozens of meet
ings the miners voted to spread the
strike.
At the Pennsylvania, West Virginia
state line 5000 Pennsylvania miners
met. while HUNDREDS OF wess vir-

They voted unanimously TO Join

than 10000 in this field will join the
strike against the code, for higher
wages, and for recognition of the

A heavy mobilization Of state DO

failed to terrorize the miners.

Surrounded by armed Nazi Storm
tro0pers-hemmed in by those who
have Jailed and tortured him, Di-
mitroff by his fearlessness gave q
shining example Of Bolshevik cour-
age and audacity as he faced the
class enemy.
Other highlights in today's ses-
sion included:
1. Acharge by Dimitroff that he
had been kept in handouts dur
ing five of the six months he has
been imprisoned;
2. An offer by Arthur Garfield
Hays, American attorney, to pro-
vide the defense with the findings
Of the International Committee
of Jurists;
3. The arrival at the court of
Ernst Torgler's aged and infirm
mother from Berlin.
A refugee from Bulgaria as re-
suit of his revolutionary activities ane
prisoner in the dock of Nazi "jus-
tice" which has murdered and tortured
the best fighters in the ranks of the
German working class, Dimitrof1
threw the Hitherto executioners into
a purple rage as he faced them ir
the Supreme Court here and accused
their Brownshirt chiefs of being the
real incendiarieS of the Reichstag or
February 81, last.
Accuses Nazi
Proudly admitting his years of &C.
tivity as a Communist, and ringingly
expressing his hatred for the fascist
regimes of both Germany and Bull
garia, the veteran revolutionist
charged the Nazis with setting fire tc
the Reichstag building in order to
justify their bloody, sadistic reign
of terror against the German working
class and particularly its vanguard
the Communist Party of Germany
At the same time Dinlitroff bluntly
told the Hitherto court that he was
getting worse than no defense in the
assignment to him of the Nazi lawyer,
DR.. Teichert. "I'll never have him, y
Dimitroff said, pointing to Teichert.
Il am defending myself"
The Bulgarian revolutionist calmly
accused Teichert of refusing to pro-
cure evidence and documents of the
most vital character necessary to his
defense.
The presiding Judge was partic-
ulariy enraged by Dimitroff's con-
slant and fearless use of the terms
trick" and "provocation" regarding
Nazi police methods. At one point
the Hitherto Judge threatened to
call halt to the frame-up trial
II Dimitroff did not cease these
telling characterizations.
So pointed and daring were Dinit-
roff's declarations, whose echoes have
already been heard by millions
throughout the world-that the per-
siding justice of the Nazi court on
several occasions threatened to take
disciplinary measures" against the
defendant.
Unawed by this threat, Dimitroff
