Prosperity and Death

II prosperity maintains its advance
and actually arrives this year the fact
will be fatal to many American citi-
1ens.
Authority for this statement i q
leading American insurance company
which has reduced the business OF
watching people live and die to q
mathematical science.
Commenting on the fact that 1898
saw the lowest death rate in history
this authority says:
with better times-in the Off
Ing II not actually here-we can
expect greater mortality from
accidents. With greater numbers
reemployed, more are subject to
the hazards Of industry. The
same holds true for automobile
accidents. Traffic-both pleas
ure and business-is becoming
heavier: and this in turn fur
niahes more chances for q greater
number Of drivers and riders in
motor cars. This increase In
automobile mortality was one of
the first developments we OBJ
served among policyholders i'm
mediately following the decided
upturn in employment, which
took place in 1888"
Just as every cloud has q silver
lining 80 does every advance carry
some handicaps Of its own.

Tribune Washington Correspondent
Washington, Jan. 9.-Missing-six-
ty-Seven billion dollars!
That's lot to lose. Or find. But
it appears to have been shifted to
those of us who owe money from the
pockets of our creditors.
Let Senator Elmer Thomas of Ok
lahoma step up to the blackboard and
prove 1t.
Thomas startled everybody last
spring when he declared from the
senate floor that his initiation amend
ment would transfer 200 billions from
the creditor to the debtor class.
But he didn't have his blackboard
with him. So some people just laugh
ed and others cusSed the Wild-eyed
notion of inflationists.
Now here's the senator, chalk in
hand, ready to show his prediction
third true and the other 1873 billions
in sight.
when I made that speech, the dol
lars purchasing power was $1.67, COM
pared with 1926" he says. Our debts
were about ,0o0,OOO,O0O. That
meant debtors must part with about
at billions worth Of goods and serv-
ices to pay off.
1.-THE dollar now is worth $1.40. That
means q decline of 81 billions. We
owe only $50 billions in goods and
services now. That's good start and
the present policy, with its successive
steps, will get it down to $50 billions"
You point out that he has account
ed for only 1877 of those 200 billions.
But so many ciphers have used up all
/ the chalk. The senator explains he
also was counting in the change in
value Of bank deposits.

made at the August Emergency
Scottsboro- HernGon conference.
Thaelman was foremost among
the European workers to fight for
the liberation of the Scottsboro
Nine. Two years ago, ThaeImann
called upon 10000 German fell
low workers to organize a cam
paign for the liberation of the
ScOttsboro boys. In cities all
over Germany, demonstrations in
sisting that the Scottsboro boys
shall not die were held in answer
to the call of Ernst Thaelmann.
Following the August 8 confer
ence here, similar conferences will
be staged all over the country.
When this series of mass confer
is over, hundreds of thou
sands will have been drawn into
the campaign for the liberation of
the Scottsboro boys and Angelo
Herndon, for the enactment and
enforcement of the bill of Negro
against Jim Crowism, for
the fight against local ScottSboro, -
and for the fight against lynching.
Petitions for the enactment and
enforcement of the Bill for Negro
Rights and Suppression of Lynch
ing, and calling for the freedom of
Angelo Herndon and the Scots
boro boys, will be distributed
through the delegates to attend the
New York conference August 8 as
well as those who will attend the
subsequent conferences all over the
country. The goal is to get at least
! 100000 signatures. Contributions
to be made by all the signers of
these petitions will go to make up
the $4,000 defense fund needed to
fight for the appeals for Angelo
Herndon and the Scottsboro boys
A feature of the mass conferences
will be their preparation for tre-
mendous demonstrations all over
the country on Aug. %. That day
is the anniversary of the murders
of Sacco and Vanzetti. The day
have been set aside as National
Scottsboro-Herndon day.

Entire Towns

In So. Illinois
Negroes Face Eviction
from Company-owned
Shacks

DEWM AINE, Ill, Aug. q
Ninety-five per cent of the 313
families in the exclusively coal
mining communities of Dewmaine
and Colp, in Williamson County,
Illinois, are on relief. Seventy per
cent of these families are Negroes.
Abandonment of the mines leaves
no prospect Of future jobs.
Most of the houses in the two
towns are owned by the Madison
Coal Company From these shacks
at which rain water is the only
source of supply, and outhouses are
the only toilets, the Negro workers
face eviction. No hospital service is
Svailable. School service is of a
low grade.
In a confidential report submit
ted to the research section of the
Federal Emergency Relief Admins
tration, the only relief that is held
out to these Negro workers is a
program which would include the
development of self-Sustaining farm
projects on the rocky and poor
land, development of small local
industries, and initiation of work
projects for only the immediate
needs Of the population.

signed to enable the blacklisting of
the most active strikers.
The employers propose that the
wages shall remain at fifty cents
and forty cents, and that no strike
shall be called as long as the Re
gional Labor Board is in force.
The August First anti-war meet
ing called by the Communist Party
was broken up by the National
Guardsmen and Peter Sjodin, Com
munist candidate for congress in the
Third District was arrested. He was
later. The Communist Party

81 cut In the daily wage and an
hour increase in the work day over
the old agreement, which indeed
was never carried out by Zausner.
But zausner is making other
moves to break the backbone of
the strike. Cap in hand and with
bated breath and whispering hum
bleness, zausner is going from boss
to boss and is concluding settle
ments under all sorts of conditions.
This Sneaking move was sharply
condemned at meeting of the
committees Of Locals 848 and 400
yesterday.
Louis Weinstock, speaking for
the strike committee of Local 400,
said that such settlements were
unconstitutional and were nothing
more nor less than the acts of a
strike-breaker.
The question OF settlement
must be placed before the men,
berShip for referendum" Wein-
stock declared. TN settling with
the bosses Zausner does not care
what wages are paid; he is only
interested in seeing that mem
bers of Local 499 are not em-
ployed. Our strike committee has
issued a call to all locals urging
them to call special meetings
where the membership will de-
eide on the individual settlements.
In fact, Zausner has no right to
make settlements with any en-
pIoyers."
At the meeting of the strike
committee held yesterday in the
84th Street Labor Temple a worker
made a motion that the committee
express appreciation to the Daily
Worker for its honest reporting and
support Of the strike. The motion
was adopted and three hundred
copies of the Daily Worker were
ordered by the strike committee for
distribution among the strikers.
Picketing of jobs was intensified
yesterday. Today there will be a
mass picket demonstration led by
Locals 400 and 848 starting at the
84th Street Labor Temple at 11.3o

CHICAGO, Aug. 2. - Fascist at.
tacks against militant trade unions
in Chicago are definitely being pre-
pared by the Cook County States
Attorneys Office with the co-opera-
ton of American Federation Of
Labor officials. These facts were
conclusively established when de-
tails of the arrest and questioning
of Frank Gallagher, Packing House
Workers Industrial Union organizer
were revealed after his release.
Pat German, International Presi-
dent of the Amalgamated AsSocia-
ton Of Meat Cutters and Butchers;

same union, an A. F. of L. man
named Walsh, from New York, and

tioning.
A. F. of L. Heads Helped Police
Two Of these so-called labor lead-
erS we're present while Gallagher
was being examined. FROM numer-
Gus remarks exchanged between po-
lice and labor officials, it was obvious
that they had been called in, or
had volunteered their services to
help railroad the militant worker
and get information from him to
aid in smashing the Packing House
Workers Industrial Union.
Gallagher was able to learn that
the leaders of the Amalgamated
Association had sent the States At
torney a letter about the Red"
union, but that the States Attorney
had already taken action.
The Packing House Workers
Union had issued a leaflet to stock
yards workers, calling for militant
conduct of the live stock handlers
strike, and urging general yards
walk-out in sympathy. When this,
combined with mass meetings,
reused considerable favorable senti-
ment, Gallagher and Charles Soders
were arrested on a street car Friday
following a successful meeting with
yards workers.
Militants Framed Up
In an effort to discredit Gallagher
as a rowing trouble maker, Egan
tried to connect him with almost
every strike in the United States.
He attempted to prove that Gala
CHER had been in the Minneapolis
packers strike, the truck drivers
strike in the same city, in the Mil
waukee strike, and even in San
Francisco.
During the course of an hour and
a half of intensive questioning about
literature found in union headquar-
ters in a raid, and about the lead
ership of the PH.WIU., Gallagher
was able to learn more from his
questioners than they did from him.
He was told that an investigation
of the Marine Workers Industrial
Union was under way and that all
the T.U.U.L. unions were going to
be Cleaned out"
Gallagher was released late Tues
day afternoon on bail pending
framed-up charges of disorderly
conduct and unlawful assembly.

for the release of Ernst Thaelmann

Disregarding all evidence of wit
nesses, Judge William Hofmann, an
open Hitler supporter, based his
frame-up solely on the fact that
PopoYich is Communist. After
Popovich had admitted membership
in the Communist Party, Hofmann,
foaming at the mouth, said:
That's all I want to know! In
view of the fact that you belong to
a party that wishes to overthrow
this government, I find you guilty.
