Those who took part in the hunt

and others.
The Kentucky Miners Defense has

their conviction in 1881 for alleged
conspiracy to murder three coal
company mine-guards was obtained
through a frame-up. Hundreds of
thousands of labor-union members
and liberals throughout the country
have p~etitioned Governor Chandler
for liberation Of the Harlan men.
Chandler held a two-hour hearing
on the petitions on December "a,

HARLAN CO.. MINERS.

NEW YORK CITY.-Anxious in
quiries by the Kentucky Miners De-
tense here concerning the fate of
the four Harlan County mine-strike
life-termers in the Frankfort state
reformatory flood-riots, resulted in
locating three of the prisoners-but
the whereabouts of the fourth re-
manned a mystery at the end of six
days.
Kentucky trade-union officials and
other friends of the prisoners in the
flooded area joined in the search.
At every turn they encountered
towering obstacles. The 1900 re-
formatory inmates had been trans
ferred to jails and improvised quar-
tiers in various cities. State officials
were hard to find, and nowhere, ap-
parently, was there a composite list
showing where all the prisoners had
been taken. Meanwhile newspaper
reports persisted that from 10 to so
had been killed in the rioting.
On the fourth day it was learned
that Chester Poore was held in the
old post office in Lexington, and
that AL Benson was in the old work.
house on the Frankfort pike near
that city. Not until the fifth day
was w. B. Jones located. His o.
year-old son, Elmer, discovered that
Jones was down with the flu in a
temporary Frankfort hospital.
Guards told Elmer that Jim Reyn-
olds had been taken out of the re-
formatory, but that they did not
know where he now was.
Herbert Mailer, secretary of the
Kentucky Miners Defense, pressed
the hunt by telephone and telegraph.
For two days all efforts by the de
tense to get any word from Ken
lucky about the Harlan prisoners
were futile. Then Mailer received
a telegram from Governor A. B.
Chandler saying: "All Harlan miners
safely removed from reformatory."

GERMAN CARDINAL BABES pfR5E(u-
TON OF CATHOLIC WORKERS

MUNICH.-One of the most vivid
and cruel chapters of the bitter
struggle between the Nazi regime
and the Catholic Church in Germany
is the systematic persecution of the
German Catholic Workers organiza-
tons during recent years. Conclu-
sive evidence of the relentless efforts
with which the Nazis seek to de-
stroy Catholic organized labor is con-
tanned in a recent memorandum by
the head of the German Catholic
Hierarchy and Archbishop of Mu-
Mich, Cardinal Michael Faulhaber.
The document is very carefully
worded and limits itself to a simple
presentation of facts. 1t is for this
reason all the more effective, and
must be considered the most damn
ing indictment pronounced by Ger
mar Catholicism against its oppres-
sors.
Going back to the Spring and
Summer of 1888, the memorandum
quotes the leader of the Nazi Labor
Front (organized in place of the sup
pressed Trade Unions), DIR. Ley, as
saying, '"The so-called Catholic and
Evangelical Workers Organizations
must also be regarded as enemies of
the State. 1t is high time that they
disappear This announcement was
swiftly followed by the confiscation
of local funds and other union prop
erty. Meetings were prohibited, and
the offices and homes of the Catholic
Workers Organizations were closed.
In the midst of this general attack
on Catholic labor, the Concordat con-
cluded between Hitler and the Vati-
can at Rome brought a breathing
space. 1t did not last very long.
Soon complaints poured in from all
parts of the country and finally the
Nazi Labor Front decreed in April
1884 that all members of the Cath
olic Workers Unions should be ex-
cluded from the Labor Front. This
decree meant in effect the loss of
livelihood to tens of thousands of
workers and a a most effective
blow against Catholic labor. Strenu-
GUS protests remained unsuccessful,
the Nazis claiming that the Catholic
Workers Unions were political and
therefore exempted from the Con-
cordat. Public protests voiced by
the Archbishops and Bishops of Ger
many were suppressed by the police.
Only a few months ago the Nazi
regime through the President of the
Honor Court of the Nazi Labor Front
made it plain that the drive against
the Catholic workers for their dual
membership would not be relaxed.
Nevertheless, the Nazi attempt to
destroy Catholic labor and to divert
its membership into the ranks of the
Nazi movement has failed. In fact,
relentless persecution has resulted
only in stiffening the back of these
workers.

formances of the German aircraft
leave also much to be desired. On
the other hand there is wholesome
respect for the Russian aircraft and
their pilots, which German experts
Judge to be superior to their own.
although the Germans have TAX
en- the lead in bolstering up the shat
tered forces of the Spanish Rebels,
the Italian Fascists are no less ac-
tive. According to confidential re-
ports from Italy, two military divi-
sions composed of 10 battalions are
being formed and sent to Spain by
way of Morocco. Each battalion will
consist of 300 men with full military
equipment, 80 heavy machine guns
and a larger number of light ma
chine guns. Each soldier receives As
Ira daily for services on Spanish soil
and non-commissioned officers rs
Ira daily. The first contingent of
5000 men sailed a few weeks ago.
Manifestations of sympathy for
the Spanish workers are suppressed
by the Italian Secret Police (OVRA).
In some instances relatives of anti
Fascist Italians fighting on the gov
eminent side in Spain have been
arrested and kept as hostages. In
Perugia, the police arrested the rel
atives and friends of the Italian anti
Fascist, Mario Angeloni, who was
killed on the Spanish front a few
weeks ago. At Susa the brother of
the anti-Fascist worker Petacchi now
fighting in Spain has been arrested
and confined to jail. A brother of
the Italian anti-Fascist flyer, Venerio
Spinelli, has also been arrested and
sentenced to five years in prison for
alleged anti-Fascist activities.
