The crime of which the daily swindle press accuses Mr. Williams is that he told a committee of WPA workers to get out and work to keep liberals in control . of the government. and Having beheld the miseryHoover hunger that the reactionary nation permitted to run rife in the The daily swindle Wishing the Utah Labor News Continued Success and Best Wishes on its 9th Anniversary Lawrence II. Halan Weber County Clerk and Auditor and his ordering of the shooting down of the Bonus Marchers, we feel as we believe millions do that Aubrey Williams performed a great public service in warning the WPA workers against permitting starvation Hoover and his gang to get back in control of the government. Children dying of starvation, parents shooting themselves and their children to death because they could not care for them, the old permitted to starve and suffer, the young given no aid and no cooper-of ation. That was the record . Hoover. That was what Williams warned WPA workers to protect themselves against. If it is a crime to warn people to protect themselves against such grand things then criminals are whom people in comparison with the owners of the daily swindle sheets are a putrid, detestable lot. Next to bombing women and children to death is condemning those who seek to protect them from death by starvation. It is no wonder that for a candidate for office to be supported by the daily swindle sheets spells sure defeat.

Hoover increased the debt from bilsixteen billions to twenty-thre- e lions in four years and did not leave a trace of benefits in any community in America.
