the alleged slaughter of more than
1000 Haitians and instances OF

The reports were contained in
depositions from Haitian refugees

While their publication renewed
the controversy between the repre-

By ROBERT S. L

has served grim notice on industrial
foes and political critics that the
c. l.. o. is determined to win for
American labor "a more rational
arrangement of our domestic econ

The veteran miner chief hurled
his challenge in a dramatic nation
wide broadcast last week in which
he sharply chided President Roose-
welt for his recent plague on both

cago police as cowardly murderers
and blasted Governor Davey of Ohio
as a turn-coat and steel puppet."
Lewis did not mention the Presi-
dent by name. But there could be
no question to whom he was refer
ring nor the import of aggrieved
criticism.
State Case Against President
The C. /. o. leader flicked his lash
at the President for failing to inter-
