ESTIMATE INCREASE
IN WINTER WHEAT

duction, 100000
Above 1894 Crop

Washington, Dec. 2l.-(P-Produc-
ton Of winter wheat was estimated
Friday at 5,0000 900 bushels by the
department Of agriculture on the basis
Of seeding and condition Of the crop
on December l.
This would be approximately 70000,-
900 bushels above the 1894 crop but
considerably below the five-year av-
erage of 632, ,06l 900 bushels.
An increase Of 6 per cent over 1888
seedlings Is shown in the important
winter wheat states Of the great plains
area. the crop reporting board said.
age and pasture were severely re-
duced, some Of the fall seeding Is
probably attributable to seeding for
pasture.
TN some Of the states in which
both winter and spring wheat are
seeded there appears to be tend
ency to expand winter wheat acreage
which, If carried through the winter,
would lead to reduction in spring
wheat seeding next spring.
The condition Of the crop on De-
cember ! indicates that abandonment
OF winter wheat will again be above
average. Based on past relationships,
it appears that abandonment OF 1884
seedlings will be in the neighborhood
OF Is per cent.
Abandonment OF the 1888 seedlings
was 2l.3 per cent, and the l0-year
average Is 12.2 per cent.
"A comparatively low yield per acre
also Is indicated by the condition and
weather studies which indicate a win
ter wheat production to be harvested
in 1885 Of about 475, 100000 bushels.
The 1883 crop was 405. .O34 900 bushels
and the five-year average Is 632,O6l,-
600 bushels"

tioning Of material witnesses.

hGackoff said. The two questioned
were Edith, II. and Pearl, Is.
MAckoff said the two children
stated they testified according to in

IN their home as shot sounded In
m upper room. the day Of their
fathers death.
Two brothers OF Mrs. Gibson also

any statement on advice Of counsel,
Mackoff said. Donald. according to
Mackoff, testified at the inquest he
had been In the home the day Of the
shooting and had aided Gibson into
hts room. asserting Gibson was in
to0icated.
Still waiting to be examined by
the states attorney was Joe Donis,
y, who Mackoff said. had been liv.
1ng at the Gibson home since q few
days subsequent to the shooting.
Mackoff was striving to determine
Donis' connection With the family.
Mackoff said no determination
had been made to when trial Of
Mrs. Gibson VIC aid be asked. Evi-
dence In the case. he said, stu is

Court Hearing on
Noodle Eligibility
Set for Saturday

marck while Noodles battery Of law
yers IS expected to arrive tonight.
The stipulation between the attor.
neys, 1t was indicated. Is designed to
get around one question which may
have been troubling some members
OF the court. This is the issue Of an
agreement as to the record.
Under its rules, the supreme court
may not try case. Its duty as an
appeal court IS to apply the law to
cases IN which records already have
been made or to an agreed set Of facts.
To Accept Present Record
In order to meet this situation, both
Sides have agreed to accept as q record
for the quo warranto action the record
as 1t was made in the hearing on the
injunction application before Judge
Jansonius, since 1t contains all Of the
essential contentious Of both parties.
AS matters stood Friday, however,
there were only two matters before
the supreme court in connection with
the governorship. One was the an
peal for the order denying the in
junction asked by Noodles enemies.
The other was Attorney General
Sathre's request that the court take
Jurisdiction and issue a writ Of quo
warranto. in which the defense had
not yet joined.
So far as the records showed the
only matter to be argued Saturday
was the appeal from the Injunction
order.
Although both the injunction action
and the basis for the quo warranto
proceedings are the claim that Noodle
is ineligible to take office because
he voted in Minnesota in 1880 and
hence Is barred from the governor
ship by clause which requires the
chief executive to be q resident Of the
state for five years before hts election,
it was rumored Friday that it would
be claimed to the court that Noodle
Is not q citizen Of the United States
at all.
Court Ponders Jurisdiction
The basis for this, according to
these rumors, was that he was born
IN Canada and never became natural
lied, either himself or through his
parents. Who spread the rumor or
the basis for 1t, II any, could not be
learned.
One question which may determine
the courts decision on whether to ac-
cept jurisdiction under q quo war
ranto action at this time is whether
the matter can properly come before
the court.
The situation is a good deal similar
to that in which the court refused to
take jurisdiction in the LANCER case
Immediately after the deposed COVER
nor was convicted on charge oi
conspiracy against the government
In that case, the court did nothing
until ate. LANCER was sentenced ta

The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1934-04-25
Cleveland Joins Detroit

THE tremendous fighting spirit of the
1 auto workers has again broken through
all the sabotage Of the A. F. of L. officials.
This time it is the Cleveland and st.
Louis Body plants. The Cleveland plant
is tied up completely by the walk-out of
8,400 workers
In Detroit the 1000 tool and die men
are still out fighting both the hatred of the en-
poyers and the subtle defeatist tactics of Matthew
Smith
1t is obvious that the flames of a nation wide
auto strike still shoulder, ready to leap up at any
moment But this depends on how successful the
workers in getting the leadership of their fight
into their own hands out of the hands of the A
F. Of L. officials whose sole interest is to see how
long they can keep the workers back from strug-
gle and then to how they trick the men back
to work without hurting the bosses.
The great treachery of the A F. of L. officials
appears in the fact that they deliberately and
criminally kept the auto men hog-tied when the
employers were trembling in fear of strike at the
peak of the production several weeks ago. Now
that peak, the most favorable point to strike is
passed.
But it is a fact that, despite this treachery
OF the A. F. of l. leaders, the auto workers can
still win their fight The decisive factor is the
way the struggle is conducted.
First of ALL the strike must be spread to all
the auto shops, with connections set up between
all the plants in the city and in the different
cities The Cleveland workers must establish con-
nectiOns with Detroit and st. Louis.
Then, the auto workers must be absolutely
firm in their determination not to fall for the
soft soap of the A. F. of L. officials, and stick
firmly together against all decisions that do not
have the full approval of the strikers as made
clear in open consultation with the rank and file
To guarantee the strike against betrayal
through fake arbitration" tricks broad commit
union affiIiaton, etc. must be Immediately elected
Instead of the deliberate trick of the A. F. Of
L. leaders to bury the strike spirit in small halls
which keep most of the men outside there must
be militant picketing with active propagandizing
Of all workers near the plants
Above all there must be a fighting opposition
of the rank and file to the A. F. of L. leadership
and policies, with the purpose of placing the lead
ership squarely into he hands of the workers
themselves. This alone can win victory!
The auto workers are fighting the Wall Street
profit vultures They fighting for decent stand
ards of living for themselves and their families!
1t is up to the Communists. who everywhere
stand for the best interests of the working class
to spread the fighting opposition to the A.
F. Of L. strikebreaking officials. Get the strike
leadership into the hands Of the rank and file!
Spike the A. F. Of L. strikebreaking leaders!

By CHARLES DoNNELLY

A new grouping of anti-imperial-
iSt forces is forming in Ireland just
now. Keen interest in the issue and,
unfortunately, also considerable con-
fusion as to what it is, are wide
spread. This confusion is being de-
liberately intensified by the reaction
airy bureaucratic Army Council of
the Irish Republican army.
The Army Council has throughout
the economic war refused to or
ganize the republican resistance. 1t
has clearly shown its incapacity to
lead the republican front. But it has
never been afraid of radical phrases,
and this is apparently it's ground in
claiming that the new front, formed
without its consent" is in reality a
breach of the republican hegemony
To encounter its propaganda, it will
be sufficient to publish the history
of the new movement.
At the General Army Convention
of March last the following state
ment was put forward for ratifica-
ton:
That we, authorized delegates
from all units of the army in Ire
land and Britain, assembled at the
General Army Convention of the
Irish Republican Army, redecIare
