District Min.
Man Must Act
Action Demanded From
Lewis Man Who Joined
Unemployed Council
BY TONY MINERICH

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Oct. 2S.-The
most startling news in this part of
the country is that the District Pres
dent OF the United Mine Workers
in Fayette County, Pennsylvania,
Billy" Hynes, has joined the I'm
employment Councils, In this Sec
ton there is sharp fight against
the company union, the Independent
Miners Brotherhood, while most of
the mines are controlled by the
powerful H. c. Prick Coal Company
Hynes, an appointee Of John l..
Lewis, is very demagogic. During
the big strikes Of last year. he was
making radical speeches. When the
miners were in a bitter struggle, he
was talking of the Tom Mooney
case. He was not connecting the
case with the strike, which would
have been good. But he was talk
ing, so that some of the miners
would say that he made a good
speech, and yet in a practical way
he was working against the strike.
Hynes joined the Unemployment
Councils, not because he favors
them, but because thousands Of
Fayette miners are in the councils
and play leading part in them and
in the county committee.
At a meeting of the Leith local,
at which Hynes was present. one
Of the coal miners took the floor.
Telling Hynes how the Council had
fought for them, won relief for
them and fought against discrimi-
nation. He wanted to know what
Hynes thought of such good or
ganization. What could poor"
Hynes do. He said that it was a
good organization.
The miner then asked: why don't
you join?" Hynes did Join. But
this did not settle the question. One
of the miners remarked: IF he knew
that it was such good organiza-
ton, why didn't he organize us into
Council before?"
Now that Hynes is in the Coun-
Gil, the Fayette County miners are
going to demand that he become an
active member" That is that he
will go on committees to the well
fare and demand relief for all of
the miners and other workers. The
miners also decided that the leader
ship of the Councils will remain in
the hands of the rank and file.
Some leaders Of the labor move
ment head movement so that they
can later behead it." one of the
miners said, remembering what hap
pened In the San Francisco general
strike.

In Hamilton, Ohio

HAMILTON. Ohio, Oct. %
The Communist Party is making

Hamilton and in Middletown. A
final rally in conjunction with
the anniversary of the Russian
Revolution will be held Sunday,

ing planned for Middletown the

mist candidate for Congressman-at
Large, spoke and pointed out that
this attempt to fool the workers in
the union was a raw deal. The
large audience was quiet and lis
tened very attentively to the Com
munist candidate.
The Socialist woman finally
spoke, but she got very little atten-
ton. There was a great deal of
noise, and when she mentioned
the German victory" one worker
rose and challenged her to ask the
textile workers about this victory"
The meeting ended in a hurried
manner. No appeal for S. P. votes
was made. No one bought any of
the S. P. campaign literature. And
Phillips is facing the difficult task
of holding his office as the workers
seem determined to remove him.

Teachers Fight

Transfer Orders of
School Board

TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct. 23.-Center-
ing around the case of discrimina-
ton of four high school teachers
for "radicalism,' Toledo members Of
the American Federation of Teach
ers, Local $50, are fighting for
academic freedom and job security.
The system followed by the board
is to transfer teachers from their
speciality to another field, as for
example, from teaching economics
to mechanics. In line with this
policy, Chairman Clyde Kiker of
the legislative committee of the To-
cal teachers union, business agent
of the State Federation of Teachers,
and social science instructor, was
transferred to t h e position of
Waterman and janitor.
Whereupon Kiker promptly went
on strike, coming to school but re-
fusing to do ianitor's work.
The grievance committee of the
union is pressing for an open hear
ing, while the state organization
has offered to pay Kiker the equiv
alent Of his teaching salary to or
ganize teachers unions throughout
the state.
The school board has postponed
a number of meetings but the
teachers are determined that the
issue be fought out. They have
asked the board to adopt resolu-
tons granting public hearings and
guaranteeing full rights of teachers
in event Of disciplinary action
against them. The board has thus
far avoided voting on the recon-
mendation.

not even to mention the S. P.
But prior to the introduction of
Gertrude Klien. an S. P. member
in Hillman's burocracy, who was
really to make the campaign
speech, one worker rose and de-
manded to know if this was a polit-
ical meeting and by what right such
arrangements were made without
the knowledge of the union men,

Frank, a member of the local execu-

Socialist spoke that speakers of
other political parties be invited.
Klien thereupon had to make the
promise that she would refrain
from politics.

money for the fund"
Won Over Hsndicaps
Though Helper is the Youngest
section in the district and its terri
tory contains mostly poor miners,
nothing was allowed to deter the
collecting Of money The s23 was
the result Of banquet held under
the auspices Of the Daily Worker,
Coal Digger and the Labor Defend
er. Members Of the I. L. D. and the
Workers and Farmers Protective
Union did strenuous work in gath
ering food and selling tickets.
The spirit of the Helper section
may we'll be taken as a model by
other sections in the district-par-
ticularly by Section 3 Salt Lake
City. Much larger than Helper,
this section has raised only $3.50
of its s125 quota.
It is up to the tagging sections to
get down to business. The Denver
quota is small, but the Daily
Worker looks upon all districts as
equally important in the matter OF
finishing their quotas quickly. Den
yer gave promise Of being the first
to complete its total; it is the re-
sponsibility Of its sections to see
that it gets its 100 per cent imme-
diately
Individuals, mass organizations
and other workers groups must be

visits should be made. More parties
held. Collections should be taken

Chicago Pen and Hammer
In Chicago, the Pen and Hammer
club, has made its first contribution
$40. 1t has also raised its quota
from s25 to $50. 1t has challenged
the John Reed Club to a Socialist
competition. The club IS planning
series of parties, lectures and show
ing of movies for the drive.
In Seattle, district which has
not yet even reached the $3.50 mark.
though it has a quota Of $1,000,
some of the sections are turning
over. Five Of them have contributed
to the largest sum that has recently
come in-$57 Three workers clubs

Oregon Women's and the Astoria

Action Wanted
But many of the districts are still
waiting Birmingham has not yet
contributed even a dollar of its $3.50
quota, Kentucky, Louisiana, South
Dakota and Houston-of these one
NAV almost say that they are not IN
the campaign. This is an abnormal
state of affairs. These districts may
be sparsely settled, they may not
contain many sympathetic organ
izations, but their quotas were set
with these things in consideration.
The Daily Worker asks these dis
tricts to go to work!

should send reports of drive ac-
