WrangIe All Day
The new Communist Labor Party
of America adopted platform aft
er wrangling nearly all day over
the phraseology. 1t declares the
party il full harmony with the rev.
olutionary working class parties of
all countries ard stands by the prin-
ciples stated by the Third Interna-
tional program adopted at Moscow,
Russia. Other planks in the plat
form read:
'We fully recognize the crying
need for an immediate change in
the social system. The time for PAR
lcying and compromise has passed
and now it is cnly a question wheth-
er the full power remains in the
hands of the capitalists or the
working class.
''The Communist Labor Party of
America has as it's ultimate aim the
overthrow of the present system OF
production, in which the working
class is mercilessly exploited and
the creation of an industrial repub-
lie, wherein the machinery of pro-
durtion shall be socialized so as TO
guarantee to the workers the full
social value of their toll

Unless some action is taken in this
city towards the purchase of ground
for the erection of a new and suit
able armory, Harrisburg is going to
be in n very bad way when the new
National Guard of Pennsylvania or
ganization is completed, say Guards
men.
The question of n new armory for the
National Guard units located in Har-
risburg brings up the consideration of
a site on which the State will erect
n suitable building to take care of the
needs of the companies, troop and bat
terry in the new schedule of reorgani-
zation of the Pennsylvania Division
under Federal control
1t is said that Harrisburg would
do well to follow the example of
Erie and other cities of Pennsylvania
which are giving concrete evidence of
their appreciation of the Twenty-eighth
Division service, by meeting the States
offers for new armories 1t is impos-
sibie to use the present armory at Sec
ond and Forster streets, as it was only
large enough for one company of in
fantry and was erected with that idea
in view many years ago. After the
Spanish-American War an additional
company was added to the Eighth Regi-
ment and located in the same building.
Harrisburg is to have more units
than ever before No battery of field
artillery can be allotted the city until
suitable quarters are put up for equip
ment and horses, and there are no quar-
ters for a cavalry troop.
The City Grays Armory Association,
OF which Capt. +. Laubenstein is presi-
dent; Philip German, secretary, and
Edward c. Humer, Christian Nauss and
Fred w. Houston, directors, controls
the building in the interest of the
stockholders. This stock is owned very
largely by the Armory Association, with
some shares held by individuals. The
officers have been trying recently to

ment regarding her course in Hun
gary.
The ultimatum, couched in drastic
terms, and with time limit, will be
delivered by an envoy of the council.
Should Rumania refuse to comply
with the terms within a given time
diplomatic relations will cease and
the Allied envoy will bring away with
him from Bucharest the Allied dip
lomatic Representatives there.
The text of the ultimatum will not
be given out until it is delivered to
Rumania. 1t is understood, how
ever, that it will deal mainly with
the subject of reparation and tho
evacuation of Hungary by the Ru-
manian army.

FARM WORKERS IN SPAIN
ARE HEADED FOR THE U. S,
Result of New Social Conditions. as
Sequence to War and In
creased Wages.

MADRID, December ! (Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press).-Large
numbers of agricultural workers from
all parts of Spain are awaiting at
Ferrol and other ports for transport
tation to America, both North and
South. This is one of the results of
the new social conditions brought
about in Spain by the war and in
creased wages.
For years the Spanish farmer had
NORMALLY so cents) daily during the
harvest. AS this was just about suf-
fcient for the employe to subsist
upon, the farmer also allowed his
men and women sufficient to buy food
during the winter. This amount was
decided by the farmer himself and
varied in proportion to the generosity
of the giver.
Last year the farm hands, like al
most every other class of labor in
Spain, organized a union. with the re-
suit that wages during the harvest
increased from the century-old three
pesetas daily to from fifteen to TWEEN
ty-fiye pesetas daily. Therefore when
the winter came on and there was no
work. the farmer. instead of follow
ing the old convention of handing out
doles to his employees, told them as
thew were now earning good wages
thew should save sufficient to keep
themselves during the winter
Those who had saved. or at least
a norton of them, decided to move 10
some country where money couid De
earned the year around.

LADIES AGREEMENT" URGED !
FOR AMERICA AND JAPAN
Charles H. Sheriff., In Address to PEOPLE
of Far East, Suggests Solution for
Economic Problem.

INTO America is an economic and MT
a racial one. Here is the proof When
L was in California some years ago
so bitter was the feeling there against
the cheaper-living Chinese labor that
IT was not safe for a Chinaman to
walk alone at night in certain quar-
tiers of San Francisco. They then
called it racial antipathy and not
economic friction. but, since Chinese
immigration has been suspended and
therefore the economic friction re-
moved, Cinnamon have become popu-
lar in California.
You meet this Chinese immigration
question just as we did for you do
not allow cheaper-living Chinese or
Korean labor to enter Japan to COM
pete with your people. There Is no
province of Japan where there are
10000 Chinese to $4,000 Japanese. as
today there are 10000 Japanese to
$4,000 Americans in Hawaii. and you
are quite right to protect your labor
from undercutting. There is no prov
ince Of Japan where foreign labor is
increasing by birth or otherwise in
far greater proportion than the jap
anese, and yet that is true of Japa-
nese foreign labor in California"
