MOSCOW, Feb. (By WirelesS)
The methods by which every eff
fort has been made by the state COL
lective farms and the government
to increase the number of cattle and
horses were outlined today by Cher
nov, Peoples CommiSsar of Agricul-
ture, who reported to the session
of the Seventh All-Union Congress
of the Soviets.
Unlike those countries where the
government gives no aid to farm
ers during drought periods, or even,
as in the United States, goes so
far as to destroy cattle, in the
Soviet Union the government has
offered special decrease in taxes
to the individual peasants who raise
calves and colts A special cam
paign has been organized to provide
good stabling for the cattle during
the winter. In addition to the in
stitution of propaganda campaign
against the Strengthening of young
animals, impetus has been given to
the raising of poultry and rabbits
to be used as a substitute for veal,

New Deal Hit
By Methodists

The Methodist Federation for
Social Service yesterday charged
President Roosevelt with breaking
his promises. Two years of the
New Deal have increased unem-
ployment, decreased the purchas-
ing power of the average person,
and brought "a top-heavy advan-
tage for the special privileged
class" the findings of the organiza-
ton composed of ministers and
churchmen disclosed.
The New Deal was indicted on
the following grounds:
1t redistributed wealth upward
instead Of downward. Unemploy-
ment increased 81 per cent, and in
duStrial wages fell 2 per cent. Col
lective bargaining has been almost
completely nullified" Prices have
gone up as the result of the A. A. A
crop reduction program.
Instead of driving the money
changers out of the temple, Roose-
velt's measures have served to en-
trench them" the Federation
pointed out.
This is the Federstion's second
indictment of the New Deal. Last
December it charged that Roosevelt
had betrayed" the forgotten man

GLEN ALDEN
STRIKE SHUTS
C OLLIE les
Pickets Are Attacked by
Police on First Day
OF WalkOut

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Feb. A.
Most of the Glen Alden collieries
were tied up as the strike of all
the company's miners called by the
United Anthracite Miners started
today. Large numbers Of state and
local police guarded all mines, club
bling and dispensing pickets.
The strike was caused by the eff
fort of the officials of the United
Mine Workers to smash the in
dependent Union of Anthracite
Miners and force its members to
Join the American Federation Of
Labor union through intimidation,
aided by the Glen Alden Company.
The company has applied for an
injunction against picketing. Hear
ing on the application has been
set for Wednesday. A mass meeting
has been called tonight of miners
belonging to both unions at the
Lance collieries.
The correctness OF the policy of
the rank and file in the anthracite,
for unity of both unions for the
enforcement of the agreement with
the company, in placing of fighting
against each other, is now especl-
ally apparent to the workers. The
Unemployment Councils have is
sued lea1et to all unemployed
miners, calling upon them to stand
solidly behind the strikers.
The basis Of the companys ap-
plication for an injunction against
picketing is declaration that the
strike is Illegal, and all questions
should be settled through concilis-
ton.

SPLITS FIGHT

TrOtzkyite Lawyer Aids
Sacramento Judge Dis
rupt Defense
BY Michael Quinn
Especial to the Daily Worker)

SACRAMENTO, Calf, Feb. A.
The Trotzkyites carried their dis
ruptive activities on trial here into
the court last Friday when Albert
Goldman, Trotzkyite attorney for
Norman Mini, sided with the pros
ecution in a vicious attack on Leo
Gallagher, International Labor De-
Tense attorney representing II of
the defendants,
For four days Gallagher had been
questioning William Hanks, notori-
GUS labor spy, under extreme diff
culties raised by the prosecution and
the court in their attempt to pro-
tect Hanks, with the result that
there were frequent clashes. Dur
ing all this time Goldman had sat
silently, not aiding the defense. Fri
day morning a reactionary juror
complained that Gallagher was
shouting at Hanks. Special Pros
ecutor Neil McAllister seized this
cue to accuse Gallagher of turning
the court into rough house" Judge
Dial M. Lennon rushed into the
breach with a sharp reprimand to
Gallagher. It was at this point that
the Trotzkyite attorney, Goldman,
broke his long silence, rising to sup
port the court with the statement,
Il am not at all in sympathy with
Mr.. Gallagher's methods. In fair
ness to my client, want that to 5s
made clear"
Tried to Split Defense
Goldman was well aware that the
attack on Gallagher was planned
affair, concocted by Special Pros
ecutor McAllister; but he seized on
the occasion to split the defense in
the hope of winning leniency for
Mini at the expense Of the II other
defendants.
At a meeting after court adj
journed for the day, all of the de-
PENDANTS with the exception of Mini
sharply repudiated Goldman, and
accused him of attempting to dis
rupt the defense. They declared
their full endorsement OF Gallagher
and his stern fight against the use
of the trial by reactionary employ
ers and their puppet officials as a
springboard for an attack on the
whole working class, and first and
foremost the Communist Party.
Sabotage United Fronts
The action of Goldman followed
the attempts of Trotzkyite dele
gates from the Workers Party and
the so-called Non-Partisan Defense
League. to break up the united front

FARLEY PLANS
FOR ACTIO N
ON DEMANDS
Campaign of lie a d ers
Fails To Stop Action
Of Rank and File

PITTSBURGH, Pa. Feb 4.-FosH
undred delegates representing
seventy-eight lodges Of the Amalga-
mated Steel, Tin and Iron Workers
Union from practically every dis
trict of the national organization
met here yesterday at the Moose
Temple, in an effort to develop a
nationwide organization campaign
in preparation for a strike as the
only means to win the economic de-
mands and recognition Of the union
adopted at the 59th regular conven-
ton Of the Amalgamated last April.
There were also present 1870 dele
gates from 100 local unions of the
United Mine Workers Of America
who aside from participating in the
steel conference held a session Of
miners delegates separately.
The conference was called on the
initiative of the Pittsburgh District
Of the A. A. and was decided upon
at preliminary conference repre-
senting five districts Of the A. A. on
Dec. 30 at which most of the lead
ing officials Of the A. A. were pres
ent and took no exception to the
calling Of the conference Of the va
rious districts which is a tradi-
tional practice of the union.
For Rank and File Action
Despite this, however, Mike Tighe
carried on vicious campaign
against the conference. That excel
lent attendance at the conference
was achieved despite the attacks
and threats of Tighe Is an indica-
ton Of the growing feeling among
the steel workers that their only
hope of realizing their demands lies
through struggle and that the
N. R. A. has only brought chains Of
slavery to the steel workers in the
form of the company unions.
At the same time the conference
was an expression of understanding
among the steel workers that they
cannot rely on the top leaders Of
the A. A. to organize the industry
and prepare for the strike-that this
task must be carried through by the
steel workers themselves despite ths
sabotage of the Tighe machine.
Attack on Workers
The Roosevelt decision in the auto
industry, which was an open attack
on the workers, slap in the face
Of all organized labor, and which is
freely admitted to be symptomatic
of the line of the administration for
all industry, Was furtehr proof to
the delegates at the conference that
they must take matters in their
hands and act quickly.
The conference in the midst Of
the greatest enthusiasm decided
unanimously to undertake in each
district and in each lodge the or
ganization of the unorganized steel
workers in preparation for strike.
The delegates decided to call upon
Mike Tighe and the A. A. Executive
as well as the A. F. of L. Executive
Council now in session in Washing
ton to support in every way include
ing a financial and organization
drive. At the same time the con.

JUDGE GIVES
ORGANIZER
IS MONTHS
Sentenced for Technical
Violation of Passport
Regulations

Charles Krumbein, organizer of
he New York District of the Com
nunist Party, was sentenced yes
erday by Judge Henry w. Goddard
n the Southern District of N. Y.
Federal Court to serve eighteen
months in federal prison on a
charge of technical violation of
The U. S. passport regulations. This
S to be followed by probationary
period of four years upon his re-
lease.
This vicious sentence was passed
upon Krumbein by Judge Goddard
upon the recommendation of As
sistant U. s. Attorney Murphy, who
made a venomous attack upon
Krumbein for his working class ac-
tivities
When first arrested nearly a year
ago Krumbein was led by the au-
thorities to believe that he would
receive a mild sentence, and there
fore pleaded guilty to the indict-
ment. However, when the U. S.
attorney familiarized himself with
Krumbeins conspicuous activities
in the revolutionary movement he
appeared in Federal Court with the
demand that Kruumbein be given a
stiff sentence.
Arrested After May Day
Krumbein was arrested almost
Immediately following the great
May / demonstration in New York
last year, when more than $4,000
workers gathered at a huge
united front demonstration in
Union Square.
In demanding that Krumbein be
severely dealt with, the federal
prosecutor cited Krumbeins con-
viction in Illinois on a charge of
criminal syndicalism, thus seeking
to picture Krumbein as a danger
GUS" individual.
Joseph r. Brodsky, chief counsel
for the international Labor De-
tense, appeared as Krumbein's at
Jorney.
Krumbein, who is 45 years old, is
steamfitter by trade, and has
been active in the revolutionary
movement since the days of his
youth. He Joined the Socialist
Party in 1912, and was one of the
founders of the Communist Party
in 1919. He was arrested with G. E.
Ruthenberg. William 2. Foster and
other Communist leaders in the ia
nous Bridgeman, Mich, raid in
1922.
After several years the indict-
ment was dropped. Previously he
had been convicted in Chicago and
sentenced to serve ten years as a
result of his working class activi-
ties, but mass protest forced the
Governor of Illinois to issue a par
don for Krumbein and his CO.
defendants.
AS he left the court room to be
taken to Jail yesterday Krumbein
asked Max Steinberg, organization
secretary of District 2, to convey the
follwing message to the member
ship of the Party and to the thou
sands of left wing workers in the
mass organizations:
"Tell the comrades to dig
deeper into the work. l will be
back at my post to fight harder
than ever in the front ranks of
the working class"

AUTO STRIKE
RANKS SOLID
Wage Increase Asked by
Detroit Workers at
Murray Plant
BY A. B. MagiI



DETROIT, Mich, Feb. Awhile
the City Council of the A. F. of L.
automobile locals was preparing to
meet tonight to take up the devel-
oping strike situation, the strike at
the Murray Body plant here, whfeh
started Thursday, continued solid.
About seven hundred workers are
out, mostly maintenance men, but
also some from the trim shop, as
well as electricians and welders.
Wage increases and equal division
of work to cut down layoffs are the
chief demands. The strike is being
led by the Murray Body Local of
the United Automobile Workers, af-
filiated to the American Fedora
ton of Labor.
Indications are that other de-
partments will be out today" Rod
erick Macdonald, A. F. of L. or
ganizer, stated. He said that the
metal finishers and trim shop men
were holding meeting this after
noon to take up the question Of
strike action. Nearly five thousand
were employed at the plant when
the strike started.
G. P. Unit Active
The Murray Body Unit of the
Communist Party has issued leaf
let calling on the workers to make
it a hundred per cent strike and
urging them to join the A. F. Of L,
union. Your correspondent was in
formed today that an official of the
Murray Body Local has asked for
the cooperation of other labor or
CARNATIONS in picketing.
Macdonald, however, declared
that no appeal to other organiza-
tons has been issued.
The employers are trying to break
the strike by importing outside
scabs. Macdonald told your CORE
spondent that several A. F. of L
members were sent to the Detroit
Employers Association to ask fol-
jobs. They gave fictitious names
and pretended to have come from
outside cities. They we're at once
given passes for employment az
maintenance men in the Murray
Body plant.
