Finally Succeeds in Forcing Radical Bunch to the Open. Chicago, 26.—The comr munists have thrown aside every disguise, and in a party state ment publicly declare for revolu tion. This change of front fol lows organized labor’s refusal to have anything to do with the so called “farmer-labor” gathering at St. Paul, and the general col lapse of the “boring-from-with in” method. The A. F. of L. denounced the St. Paul gathering as a communist decoy. For this the A. F, of L. was censured by innocents who now whimper that the communists have tricked them. Writing from this city, Carl Hoessler, “Federated Press staff correspondent,” acknowledges that the communists have failed in their “boring” policy. “The campaign will now become straight communist,” he says. “The new radical ticket, which declares itself communist under the Workers’ party name,” Hoess ler continues, “is William Z. Fos ter, Chicago, chairman Workers’ party, for president; Ben Gitlow, New York, member Workers’ party exective conlmittee, for vice-president. State and local candidates will be run ujtider the party name wherever possible.” This declaration from authori tative communist sources, clarifies the situation. At last .the com munists have been driven out in the epen and, they now acknowl edge they'nare what organized! labor has claimed—revolutionists who are only interested in social and political upheavals. Trade unionists and sympathiz ers have no excuse to be fooled hereafter by the communists, whose only interest in organized labor is to further their revolu tionary program*;—and to divide the workers. The communists’ contempt for. democracy is shown by this dec laration by their candidate for president: “The fate of all labor organi zation in every country depends primarily upon the activities of a minute minority of clear-sighted, enthusiastic militants, scattered throughout the great mass of sluggish workers. These - live spirits are the natural leaders of the working class, the driving force of the labor movement.” This rejection of every demo JOE’S SHOE SHOP Hotel Charlotte 15 So.

JUDGE MAYER RESIGNS; BROKE CAR MEN’S STRIKE New' York, July 26.—Federal Circuit Court Judge Mayer has resigned and will enter the private practice of law. He broke a strike on the Brooklyn Rapid Transit lines four years ago when that corporation was in the hands of a receiver. He refused to treat with or recognize the Amalga mated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employes. The Rapid Transit had formed a com pany “union,” and the court said one “union” is enough. This per mitted the company “union” to function as the corporation in tended. Last winter Judge Mayer se cured nation-wide notoriety by sentencing Comptroller Craig to jail for 60 days because, of a criti cism of the ^court in connection with the handling of transit re ceiverships. President Coolidge remitted the sentence .before the comptroller was confined to jail. PRISON LABOR CONTRACT OPPOSED BY TAXPAYERS Fairmont, W. Va., July 31.—M. A. Joliff of thi scounty has started court {proceedings to annul a prison labor contract between the' State board ' of control and Isa dora. Gordon of the Gordon Shirt, Company. Joliff says the contract was made in secret and compen sation the state is to receive is at least 53 cents a day less for each convict than is paid in other states. This is declared to be “shockingly inadequate.” Convict labor opponents charge that West Virginia politicians are linked up with prison labor ex ploiters, and the secrecy with which the ; Gordon contract was entered into strengthens their claim. FIGHT CONVICT BROOMS. St. Louis, Mo., July 26.—The manufacture Of- brooms by con victs, to be sold in competition with free labor, was opposed by the convention of International Broom and Whisk Makers^ Union.
