Raps Press In
N oS. L. Speech.
'Distortion Of News' Cited
By 'New Masses' Editor
In Slide Talk
"Class bias is implicit in the press,"
said Sender Garlin, member of the
editorial staff of "New Masses" maga-
zine, in his speech last night in the
Union sponsored by the National Stu-
dent. League. He showed slides of
newspaper headlines and articles to
prove that the press "is the conscious
agency for discrediting labor and pro-
tecting the owning class."
Through the slides he endeavored1
to sl .th.ae iistotianef the account
of the communist convention. Others
of Sacco and Vanzetti, May Day
demonstrations, and mob riots, in
which labor was always rapped, were
used to illustrate his point.
The handling of the account of the
May Day parade by the press was one
specific, illustration in which he con-
demned newspapers. He especially
commented on the use of numerous
editorials against the working class
which the paraders purported to re-

WASHINGTON May 22. --P)-
Horatio J. Abbott. Democratic na -
tional committeeran, resigned today
as collector of irVernal revenue for
Michigan after al official investiga-
tion into chargesthat his employes
solicited political nds.
Abbott's resignagdn was written out
on the treasury's statement after sev-
eral hours of conferring in the office
of Secretary Morgenthau. Dated May
22, it said:
"To the Presiden :
"I hereby resigns effective this day,
my office as collector of internal rev-
enue, district of Mibhigan."
President Acct s Resigna tion
Nothing was sai officially at the
treasury regarding the case,\but pres-
idential acceptance of the resignation
was regarded'as'cetain.
One of the charges involved the
sale. of postmas~ter hips in Michigan.
When asked about this, Postmaster-
General Farley sad the mtteg was
under investigatioii
"We'll take care Of that in due time.
We certainly would never approve the
appointment of a postmaster who paid
for his job."
Abbott's resign tion climaxed a
hurried trip to Waington with Ste-
phen B, Gibbon, assistant secretary
of the treasury, and Wright Mat-
thews, deputy com issioner of inter-
nal revenue. Gibbon and Matthews'
spent Monday in ,etroit making a
personal inquiry fo Morgenthat$. The
'charges surroundi the- Detroit of-
fice named John 'ghe, an iter na
zevenue; mpiy; IvingA-soughit
funds from the Packard Motor Car
Co., and George Woods, a former em-
ploye of Abbott, a soli iting money
elsewhere. Tighe's case still is under
consideration.

tional committeeman from Michigan,

party leaders in the state.-

Warning To Palefaces
Given By Michigamnua
When from out the paleface wig-
wam
From behind the staring noon-
face
Came the slow and solemn five
booms
Telling that the evening spirit
Wanders over the woods and
meadows,
Lights the campfires of the
heavens,
Then the Michigamua warriors
In their feathers and their war-
paint
Soon will gather 'round the oak
tree
'Round the oak tree called the
Tappan
There to. greet the trembling
paleface
Many in number wait the bidding
Of the loud.rejoicing redskins
For before they take the long trail
To the home of Michigamua
Many trials and many tortures
First must prove their strength
and courage
Ere the red man bids them
welcome,
Ere he Balls each paleface
"Indian",
Ere the peace pipe smoke goes
skyward.
