than half a mile to shore through
the choppy sea off the southern CAL
ifornia coast was credited today with
effecting the speedy rescue Of three
navy seaplaneS and their crews after
they were forced down at sea last
night.
The planes were flying from San
Clemente island to San Pedro when
their fuel supply ran out and they
were forced down in a light fog.
Volunteering for the task, Ensign
Victor H. Soucek peeled off his outer
garments and plunged into the
waters. A strong swimmer, he en-
countered little difficulty reaching
shore and notifying authorities.
Within an hour, nearby navy YES
sells reached the drifting planes and
hauled them and occupants aboard.

committee to hear Mr.. Brown after
the Hoover cabinet officer agreed
to appear voluntarily and waive i'm
munity.
A three-day exchange between
Mr.. Brown and Chairman Hugo L.
Black which, at times, strained the
tempers Of both, ended late yester-
day with testimony about Mr..
Browns participation in a million
dollar stock account in 1928 and
1929.
Legality Charges Again Denied
Mr.. Brown said the account was
operated jointly with the late
Joseph P. Bagley, a close friend and
business associate who was Wash
ington representative for several
companies that obtained govern
ment construction contracts. Mr..
Bagley died in 1882 and, in his will,
named Mr. Brown as sole residuary
legatee" of the estate. Mr.. Brown
told the committee the account
brought him profits in 1923, but the
following year it was very dis
aStrous and caused me a great deal
of sorrow" He said he was forced
to pay S434,OOO to prevent being
wiped out
Mr. Brown again denied charges
Of illegality in connection with a
meeting in his Office in 1880 at
which airline operators were asked
to find a way to aid passenger COM
panieS that had no mail contracts.
Mr. Black crowded the record
with testimony on Mr.. Browns
connections with the international
Mercantile Marine Corporation and
subsidiary companies that sought
contracts to carry mail to Europe.
Mr.. Brown denied that his INN
stock holdings had any connection
with the award of contracts.
Attacks Congress Members
He spiced his testimony with a
sharp attack upon members of con-
gress who assail private citizens I'M

By JAMES MURPHY

The TUUL issued a call to its members and to
its unafTiliated brother workers to unite and
fight all attempts to cut wages to oppose the
Black Stagger Bill and fight for shorter work
day without reduction in pay, to demand the
right to organize, to strike against injunctions,
for all workers rights.
The Provisional National Committee of the
NLWU called conference of all lumber work
ers to be held in Seattle, July 25, 1888 They
framed resolution, to be discussed at this
time, pointing out the results of the New
Deal This resolution further pointed out
that spontaneous strikes were taking place
throughout the lumber industry, that the
bosses unions had become discredited through
past betrayals, and that the lumber barOns
were openly stampeding workers into the AFL.
Force Wages Up
Since the IWWS had been crushed by faction
al struggles and inept leadership, the lumber
operators had had no militant union to combat.
They had been able to beat down wages and
conditions to suit themselves. With the estab
shment of the NLWU, the lumber workers be-
gan once more, to combat the bosses attacks
and force them to grant increases in wages.
The call for lumber workers conference was
issued to all workers in saw mills, single mills
plywood and veneer plants, paper and pulp
mills, pulpwoOd and logging camps. all forest
workers employed and unemployed. organ
lied and unOrganiZed. The conference was
accompanied by a drive for new members. In
accordance with this policy, the initiation fees
and dues, until July lG, 1893, were reduced from
81 to q cents.

Friendly. Bullets

The illusions entertained by many Portland
unemployed concerning friendly and sympa-
thetic" policemen are being rapidly dis
PEELED as events, both in the longshore
struggle and the unemployed movement itself
forcethe role played by the police department
in the open
As matter of fact, the four lOngshoremen
brutally shot down at Terminal four here
last week were filed with lead from the guns
of coppers, always considered quite friendly"
to the working class. The friendly bullets
however, tore to shreds just as much human
hide as could any like amount of neutral or
luminosity tainted ammunition.
A bullets a bullet and a cops cop
No over abundance of sympathy or condos
censi0n felt by either will transform it from
its original purpose. Fortunately both the
unemployed and the longshoremen are begin
ming to recognize this fact.

The change of presidents in 1882 was
heralded with the announcement that pros
perity had returned, that industry had been
given long delayed hypodermic. All indus
tries were placed under codes
Workers were placed under codes too and told
this would mean jobs, higher wages shorter
hours, and the right to organize in any union
they desired
The NLWU saw through the smoke screen
of prosperity ballyhOo. 1t realized that the
the Roosevelt Recovery Act had sashed the
living standards of every wOrkingman and
workngwoman, by its policy of initiation.
The union pointed out to workers that only
handful of the very rich would gain through
these measures. that wages and relief would
buy less. that small bank deposits and insur-
ance policies would be worth less. The estab-
ishment of minimum wage had intended to
depress wages downward for all workers.
Knowing all this the Trade Union Unity
League carried an amendment before the Sen
ate Committee, proposing that the minimum
wage carry with it a guarantee of no reduction
in weekly and monthly earnings through the
reduction of hours Such an amendment was
not embodied in the bill.
Unite And Fight
President Green of the A of l. issued q state
ment to the effect that his organization would
demand higher wages to meet imitation prices.
The TUUL inquired What has the A of l.
done during the last three and one half years
when the living standards were reduced by g.
percent? Is there any reason to believe that
the of l. leaders will now fight?"

casts from Sacramento, Calf. what sounds

For years jobless thousands have starved
in California, under Merriam and under
Rolph before him. Demands of unemployed
hunger marchers from all over the state have
been denied relief demonstrations smashed.
But Merriam is turning over no new leaf.
The empty cupboards unemployed and part
time workers do not move him into action.
Privation of longshoremens families on short
rations for two months have gotten from
Merriam no response.
1t is now, in the face of general strike, that
Merriam miraculously becomes interested in

CONGRESS

Marion Zioncheck is one of
the best examples of a Social
Fascist.
But in the present crisis such
men as ZiOncheck have their
hands full deluding people and
occasionally show themselves
up. For example, when the bill
turning over $500 guns to the
American Legion supposedly for
the purpose of firing salutes for
their dead members came up,
ZiOncheck "Objected,' to the bill
but his objection was readily
overcome and he VOTED FOR
the bill.
Because the Voice of Action,
the only workers paper pub
lished in the Northwest which
tells the truth about the
present situation, exposed the
action of Zioncheck, one of
Zioncheck's political colleagues
tried to defend Zioncheck by
saying that it was not possible
to buy ammunition for these
guns
However. the Voice OF Action
checked up and found that
some of the main ammunition
stores in Seattle could furnish
the ammunition very nicely.
Thus we see a Social Fascist in
acknowledging to arm the
