Rank and File Prices Rise
Painters Kept 81 Percent
From Meeting In One Week


NEW YORK Commodity prices
rose to new high Monday, accord
ing to the Journal of Commerce
index published here yesterday.
The Journal Of Commerce, a lead
ing Wall Street organ, puts the
index figure of prices at 1858.
Prices have risen sharply even in
relation to last week. The index
for August 10 was 1903, indicating
an increase of as in a seven-day
period, or 1856 per cent.
In the meantime the narrowing
of the home market is drastically
shown by the decline in retail sales
volume in the last week. The vol
ume Of sales, reports indicate, have
fallen by ten per sent as compared
with August, 1888. That the actual
amount of goods sold is consider
ably less than in the same period
of last year is obvious since price
rises have tended to keep dollar
volume up.
Steel production dipped to the
low point of March, 1898, the ma
tional banking holiday. 1t is oper-
ating this week at 21.3 per cent of
capacity, the American Iron and
Steel Institute announced. This is
decline of one point, or A. per
cent, from the preceding week. The
high this year was 81 per cent of
capacity.
Bituminous coal production also
declined in the week ending August
IL, having a daily average of 963 900
tons as compared with $50 900 tons
daily average Of the preceding week.
In the same week in August of last
year the daily average was 1929
900 tons.

100 Liberals Protest

NEW YORK. = Haywood Broun,

A. L. Wirin, and Anna Damon yes
terday addressed a gathering of 100
prominent New York liberals who
wrere guests of the American Civil
Liberties Union at a luncheon in
the Town Hall Club to protest vigi-
lante terror on the West Coast.
Broun, in his speech called for
an investigating commission to go
to California. And let's not make
it impartial" he added. 1--WE want
a committee that will go out there

Mr.. Green in his statement, declares it to be
the intention Of the Executive Council to drive
the Communists out of the unions. He goes even
further. He proposes to bring the government into
the unions to aid in enforcing the strikebreaking
policies of the bureaucrats. He invites the gov
eminent to use the weapon of deportations against
foregn-b born workers who dare to oppose him. He
opens the doors wide for more violent gangster at
tacks on the rank and file to block the formation
of rank and file opposition groups.
This is a denial of the most elementary demo-
cratic rights of the A. F. of L. membership. 1t
clearly shows that Mr.. Green and his colleagues
aim to introduce fascist methods as the means of
suppressing the growing mitancy of the rank and

Raids On
Homes Are
Re isted
Wholesale Arrests Fol-
low Clashes Between
Toilers and Troops

BERLIN, Aug. 21.-Workers in
the suburbs of Berlin today
counter-attacked picked Storm
Troops sent to raid their homes
and ferret out those who voted
against Hitler in the Sunday
plebiscite. The Storm Troops
were making wholesale arrests
when large numbers of workers
began to drive them off.
Many of the arrested victims
being led to Nazi headquarters
were torn from the grasp of the
Storm Troopers. Hundreds of
workers came out of their homes
when they heard the connection
in the streets and joined in the
fight against the Nazi jailors.

BERLIN, Aug. 81. Homes of
Communists and Socialists are be-
ing raided by Nazi thugs, terroriz-
ing and arresting workers suspected
of having voted against Hitler in
the Sunday plebiscite. A special at
tempt is being made to jail and
torture workers who painted signs
on public buildings reading: vote
for Thaelmann!" Down with Fas-
cisln!" vote against Hitler"
Hundreds have been hustled off to
concentration camps where they
undergo severe tortures.
The Gestapo Estate Secret Police
is especially active, third degreeing
hundreds in the torture dives of the
Hitler regime in Berlin.
NaI leaders boasted that they
knew the names and addresses of
those who voted against Hitler, and
that the majority would be visited
and would feel the wrath of the
NaZis.
Hitler's forces are being organ
lied to visit the homes of tens of
thousands.
A Nazi convention which will deal
still further with the question of
terrorizing and attempting to stamp
out the growing anti-fascist oppo-
sition will take place in Nurem-
berg, September 5.
In view of the new terrorist cam
paign against all those who oppose
fascism the greatest fears are felt
for the safety of Ernst Thaelmann,
held in a Nazi dungeon. The Nazis
are particularly venting their feroc-
itv against those who expressed
their support of Thaelmann, and as
the so-called spoiled" ballots show,
nearly a million voters were adj
mitted by the Nazi Ministry of
propaganda to have cast their votes
for Thaelmann.

PARIS, Aug. 81. - Thousands of
arrests of workers and others who
dared to vote mo" in the Sunday
plebiscite, tortures and sluggings of
others, are taking place throughout
Germany, according to report to-
day of the semi-official French
news agency, Havas, from Berlin.
Most of the arrests have occurred
in Berlin, though homes of opposi-
ton voters are being visited by Nazi
gunner throughout the country, in
Hamburg, Westphalia and other
places.
This clearly indicates that the
ballots were marked, and that the
Nazi butchers have been able to
trace hundreds of thousands who
had the courage to express their
opposition to fascism to the extent
of 100000
The raids, arrests and beatings
follow Hitler's threat against his
opponents just before his fight to
his villa in Bavaria.

The crisp creations OF orgardy and

practical collar-and-cu sets and
which have blossomed out in all the
shop windows leave one with the idea
Of Transforming some good dark dress
that needs 4 new touch to make It

Spring neckwear Is both frilly and
tailored and 1t will be bought In larger
quantities than ever before.
An absolutely clear stocking is no
longer something to be dreamed
about. Right here in Bismarck they
are available in well-known line Of
hosiery. The best part Of it IS that
the ringless hosiery costs little more
than other stockings There IS no
ticeable q tendency toward hosiery
with heavier heels with the vogue for
lower heels and walking shoes. The
true beige Is leading In color due to
the preponderance Of tweed costumes.

focal point for jewels. The new whim
decorates as much OF the ear as pos

has new prominence, because Of the

newer ones run well over an inch in
depth.

One Of the smart spring ideas In
troduced Is gloves and scarf Of taffeta
printed in little checks with gloves
