Persons Who Employ Labor or

Barred.
IS MODELLED AFTER
THE RUSSIAN SOVIET
Radical Platform is Adopted by Off
casts of SOcialists-Three Parties
Now Are Result of One
Convention.

Chicago, Sept. 4.-Another new po-
litical party was organized here to-
day and christened the Communist
Party. 1t is patterned after the So
Wet republic of Russia and it's men,
bership will be limited entirely to
wage earners. The platform, consti-
tuition and program adopted is even
more radical than that of the recent
" formed Communist Labor Party
of America.
The Communist Party is backed by
the foreign language group recent
ly expelled from the National Social.
list Party. One provision of it's con-
stitution bars from its ranks all en-
ployers Of labor, persons who gain
their livelihood by means of rents,
interests and profit and all persons
exclusively engaged in professional
occupations including journalists,
lawyers, and physicians. The new
party was formed today after unsuc-
cessful efforts had been made to unite
the ultra-radical groups with the
Communist labor party of America.
Rose Pastor Stokes announced she
would join the Communist Party. The
latest radical party plans to establish
colleges in every large city for the
teaching of Communism and to give
correspondence courses to those men,
bers unable to attend the colleges. An
elaborate plan for spreading the pro-
paganda of the party sby means of
newspapers and literature was adopt
ed.
Members of the Communist Labor
Party of America remained in session
today perfecting the details of it's or
ganization and discussing its pro
gram. "We do not want the public
to think we are gang of dvna-
miters," explained Henry M. Tichner
of St. Louis eve are social revo-
lutionists and we heartily approve
the principles of the Soviet republic
of Russia. This country is not ready
for revolution but we believe it is
coming. No revolution is hand made
or the work of any individual or
party. 1t comes as a result of indus
trial and political conditions. The
aim of the Communist Labor Party of
America is to prepare the people Of
this country for the revolution by
education so that when capitalism
is dethroned the workers will be
ready to act"

democrats in opposition to those deal
ing with article 10 and the with
drawal provision, but joined his col
leagues in supporting those provis-
ions affecting the Monroe doctrin

publicans, in supporting all Of the re-
servations except that concerning

FIVE MEN

The first of the crack Omaha
squads occupied the runways last
night, and one of them, the Fair
mont Creamery team, rolled into
fifth place in the standings, with a
total of 2,739. Only one outside
team was on the schedule, Chamber

During the day Frank Spellman,
local roller, hit the wood in the
singles for a 606 count, tieing Billy
Metcalf of St. Paul for sixth place
in the individual event. Barney
Shaw and Harold Figehschuh were
the days best doubles rollers, piling
up a l,l37 total, which places them
in eighth place in the two-men con-
tests.
The Grand Island and Westside
rollers failed to accomplish any
thing in their doubles and singles
matches.
Tonight big flock of crack Oma-
ha cations will roll. The best
teams in the city will be on the
runways and local followers of the
game are pinning their hopes for a
winner on these teams. Arrange

date the large crowd that will wit

The bulk of the local singles and
doubles will be rolled on turkey day.
Omaha has many stars in the game
this season, so it's an even break
that at least one championship will
stay right here in Omaha.

= The return bout between Billy
Uvick and Harry Williams has been
called off by Promoter Al Fiori and
his associates. The men were billed
to box six rounds to a decision on
Friday night. November %, but the
injury to Harry Williams right

be a break, halted proceedings.

this bout will probably be matched
with Harry Williams, as soon as
the latter's hand is in condition for

a new one. An opponent is being
