DRASTIC LAWS
FOR SAFETY AT
SEA Are GOAL
Roper to Push Measure to
Safeguard Life and Prop
erty on Highseas

/ WASHINGTON, Dec. "a. CUP.
Drastic legislation to safeguard
I life and property on the high seas
will be asked as soon as congress
eonvenes, Secretary of Commerce
Daniel C. Roper asserted last
night in his annual report. ~.
Although not mentioning the
MORO Castle and Nantucket trag-
edies earlier in the year.. Roper
said that he would urge the SCI"
ate to ratify the international
convention of safety of lie at
sea and congress to revise regu-
! lations to provide a maximum
safeguard of life and property on
! the seas"
SEA LEGISLATION FAVORED
Similar recommendation for leg
= isIation have been made In the
mast after maritime tragedies, in
Guiding the Vests, but little or
no action resulted. Roper's as
sertion was interpreted as mean
inp that the administration would
throw it's full power behind the
proposals.
He disclosed that special com
mittee of maritime experts is
busy formulating hi sprogram and
will be ready to report shortly.
In addition. Roper advocated
| exclusion of aliens from our do
nestle fisheries and further pro-
lection of coastwise trade.
As of June 80, 1884, Roper re-
ported, the American merchant
marine included 24,904 ships of
14,861,814 cross tons, an increase
of Al vessels but a decrease OF
19S,343 tons.
SHIP OWNERS PAY UP
| Regarding activities of the
United States shipping board
Roper asserted that shipowners
indebted, to the government for
purchasing ships have been re-
auired to meet their obligations
and operating methods and Il
nancial returns of carriers hold
ing oceanmail contracts have
been scrutinized more carefully
so that public interests may not
suffer"
One of the outstanding de-
velopments in shipping, he said
was the decision to exercise the
: departments regulatory powers
, over rates, fares, charges ant
practices of the carriers.
He said Investigations of in
Itercoastal shipping conditions ant
foreign competition with Ameri
: can ships, as a result of this pol
lev were launched but have no
been completed.
!. Government operation of ships
Roper said, during the fiscal year
cost only $1,970,750 against 81,
634,196 the previous year, thu
savings resulting largely from
s sales of services operating in the
. Gulf of Mexico.
FISHERIES AIDED
e Reporting on fisheries. Rope
e said that the year brought "som

In air commerce, the cabinet

tanned funds from the PWA to

In addition, he said the bureau
of air commedce tested and fount
the army air corps blind Landing
system suitable for commercial
aviation and frightened regulations
for Investigations of airplane &C
cidents. =,
During the year, Roper said
the bureau of al rcommerce sur
viewed 200 miles of new fedora

ed. on July l, to begin construc

Ex-Servicemen's League vigorously
protest against the terror being used
against the strikers. We protest
against the use of troops in the
strike area and call upon the mil
lions of veterans throughout the
country to join us in this protest
and to study the program of the
Workers EX-S League,
the only veterans organization on a
National scale which gives full sup
port to the strikers.
I'VE call upon all Posts of our
organization to send letters Of pro-
test to Governor Green OF Rhode
Island against the use of the State
Militia in the strike area, against
his request for federal troops.
I'VE heartily commend those vet
Grams who refused to act as strike
breakers, who refused to aid the
textile bosses in breaking this strike
cit is with the realization that
the veterans of America must
struggle not only for the payment
of the debt due to the veterans,
their back wages called the bonus,
but we must struggle for economic
and political rights as workers. We
must endeavor to maintain our
standards of living. This struggle
of the textile workers is our strug-
gle. The same interests who,
through their agents in Washing
ton have refused to pay us the
Bonus, who have reduced our
small pensions and taken away our
disability allowances are attempting
to further cut our wages in the
shops where we work.
Veterans of the American L.
giOn, V. F. W. and d. A. "! Do
not permit yourselves to be used
against your working class broth
ers! Their struggle is your strug-
gle! Their victory is your victory!
On to victorious end of the tex

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Sept. 21.-
The fight against the railroading
Of Jim Egan, Phil Frankfeld and the
Ambridge victims will be taken to
the U. S. Supreme Court in the
event the State Supreme Court rules
unfaVorably on pending appeals, it
was announced yesterday by Carl

Hacker appealed to all workers
organizations and sympathetic in
tellectua to block the fascist at
tempt of Allegheny County courts,
controlled by the steel corporations
of Western Pennsylvania, to jail
these defendants for their activities
in leading militant struggles of the
working class.
He emphasized that legal attempts
to obtain the freedom of these vic

NEW YORK. - Five hundred
workers, under the leadership of the
Unemployed Council of Williams
burg, massed at the Home Relief
Bureau, Thursday, forced the adj
ministrator to meet with a mass
delegation, and won relief for forty
cases presented and other demands.
In addition, the relief supervisor
was forced to promise immediate
relief to all emergency cases in the
future, to order the removal of
police from the station, and to
promise to take up with the city
relief heads the matter of increased
relief.
The demonstration was led by
Martha Stone, Communist candi-
date for Assembly in the 18th dis
trict, and Nat Leroy, Council organ
izer. A mass picket line was thrown
around the relief station after the
supervisor had at first refused to
meet with the workers committee.

WarVeterGns DenOulceArmed
attacks on Textile Strikers
In Protest Issued BY W.E.S.L.

NEW YORK.-Thousands of war
veterans hailed the textile strike
and urged all veterans and men,
bers of the armed forces to give
the strikers every possible aid
against the employers in a state
ment issued yesterday by the Ma
tional Executive Committee of the
Workers EX-SerVicemen's League.
Denouncing the use of the armed
troops as strikebreakers, the state
ment declared
I'VE greet the heroic struggle of
the textile workers in their struggle
to better their conditions, to or
ganize against the speed-up and for
higher wages.
I'VE call upon all Posts of our
Organization together with h e
rank and file members of the Amer
lean Legion, Veterans of Foreign
Wars and Disabled American Vet
Grams and all unattached veterans
to Fundamentally support the strike
struggles of the textile workers.
I'VE particularly urge that vet
Grams in the strike area form pick
citing groups and help picket the
mills and cooperate in every way
possible until victory is won.
In Rhode Island, Governor Green
has put the full force of the State
at the disposal of the textile barons.
State Militia, together with hired
thugs and gunner are being used
to terrorize the workers, to break
up the picket lines and to smash
the strike struggles Of the textile
workers. Not being cOntent with
this mobilization, Governor Green
is also attempting to mobilize one
thousand World War veterans to
be used against the strikers. The
governor Of that State has also re-
quested that federal troops be sent
to the strike area.
