Vol. XXXIII No. 32 Public interest mounted higher toâ€" day as the inquest into the murder of Frank Deluca got under way at 11 0o‘ clock this morning. Whether or not the inquest will reveal anything new on the case is debatable ard als, doubtful. The purpose of the inâ€" quest is to examine the evxde ice so far established. Inspector W. J, Franks of the Crimâ€" inal Investigation Bureau of the Proâ€" vincial Police, Toronto, arrived back in town last evening but refused to talk on the matter except to say that he didn‘t think there would be anyth.ng "startling." uUmMlll}l L UIllliK WOuld JC dilly Liliils | "startling." put on the record evidence so far esâ€"| tablished.

The inquest no doubt will come to the conclusion that Frank DelLuca was murdered with a knife by a person or persons unknown. If the police had any "surprise evidence" it would not be brought out at an inquest but would go to make up their case against perâ€" son or persons unknown. The murder weapon, the large French chef carving knife which ended the life of Frank DelLuca will be the No 1 exhibit at the inguest,.

It is a crime which might easily ibe termed an outstanding mysâ€" tery and as yet may go down as one of the greats in Canadian criminal annals. In answer to an attack by the Comâ€" munistâ€"led officials of Local 241 in a leaflet on the front of which is supâ€" perimposed the clenched fist of Comâ€" munism, Ralph Carlin of the new Porâ€" cupine Mine Workers Union says the Communists "react like hnornets Communist Leaders Like Hornets â€"â€" Carlin "I feel that the miners of the Porâ€"| cupine Camp are too intelligent to be | taken in by halfâ€"truths ana ouir.gnt| distortions which the officiais of Local 241 have passed out."

The Commie leadâ€" rs in our Union Movement have pracâ€" ticed a very clever technique in the| past .to discredit and isolate strong »mâ€"| dividuals, groups and even locals who. dared to resist the Communist Party Line in our unions."

He said that the record of Mimeâ€" Mill under the Robinsonâ€"Travis Axis wh‘ch has made the policy of the orâ€" ganization a sort of catspaw for the line of the Communist party which is dictated by the sacred cows of the Kremin, is clear procf that there is something seriously wrong in Mineâ€" Mill.

Tuesday evening at a special members meeting of the Timmins Mine Organizing Committee leaders of the new union decided to change the name to the Porcupine Mine Workers Union, and decided that the time was now. This morning operations of the new union got underway with a gate rally a.t. the Preston East Dome and a full dress meeting will be held tonight : at 7.30 pim, in the Central Hotel in South Porcupine. â€" On Friday evening there will be a meeting at the union‘s headâ€" quarters 166 Algongquin Boulevard East, at the corner of Balsam street.

The outcome of these meetings will be a vote and then a showdown as to who represents the miners of the Porcupine. Local 241 claims that it represents the workers of the Porcupine but it has been unaole to prove it and the mines have called their bluff. The new union claims that it can get the memâ€"| company bership to prove that it will speak for| the miners of the Porcupine.

On Sunday at a Red Rally in the Finnishâ€"Ukrainian Park, about a 125 of the faithful comrades gathered to hear Comrade Salsberg from Toronto but he didn‘t show up... The comraues never ones to get Red in the face, dusg up Mel Doig a former editor of the Commie Tribune and party goon from the Niagara Penimnmawia;,â€"... $ Doig ranted and raved {0r a few min._ utes on the lacadasical attitude of the CCF party, Instead of letting the Reds run the courtry they were just like the Fascistâ€"minded Tories he said. He blamed Coldwell for the mess the CCFP was in and said that Charlie Milâ€" lard was leading labour into the arms of the Tories. Doig was a pessimist as far as labour was concerned. I suppose that since Canadian labour has decided not ‘to walk beside the Comâ€" rades to world revolution the Comrades now don‘t want to play on th, team. It is their same old cry. "We want to pitch or we won‘t play ball." A beauty queen was chosen at the picnic but it didn‘t seem to have any effect on Bill Kennedy for he returnâ€" ed to his old self on Tuesday and blastâ€" ed Ralph Carlin of theâ€"Porcupine Mine Workers Union for having given ou: facts and figures on the strength of What the wellâ€"dressed young man will wear on the beach this year is demonstrated here by Ronald Eveson, three, of 312 Pine Sireet North, Timmins.

Miners take the rock dust out of your eyes! Another interesting bit of informaâ€" tion which came to light this week is the fact that Henry Myers is working for the Communist Press, The Trbune. He is their circulation solicitor for the Northland. »Bill Kennedy organizer for Local 241 shculdn‘t feel so bad when he is told that his union doesn‘t represent the majority of the workers of the Porcupine," Ralph Carlin said this morning. ‘"How could a union with less than 200 members be the barâ€" gaining agent for 6500 miners of the Porcupine?" Ralph Carlin was in a jovial mood this morning and looked forward with expectation to the meeting this evenâ€" ing at the Central Hotel im South Porcuping at 7.30. The Vachon, Beâ€" hie and Carlin group under the name of the Porcupine Mine Workers Union have begun to act since the fight has come out into the open, â€" "There will be no holds barred," said Ralph, "and the Conmies will probably use every dirty trick they can to discredit us." The new union members have been getting their new hall at 166 Algonâ€" quin Boulevard in shape for the showâ€" down which they knew would come sooner or later. _ "All is in readiness," said Buck Behie this morning, Ivan Vachon was girding for the battte too, while all the stalwarts of the new union stood in little groups getting their battle orders. "But they will find us tougher than they ibargained for, and we expect the worst so we are prepared."
