that will participate in the Christmas
convention are the Finnish Socialist
Federation, the Jewish Workers
Federation, the Scandinavian Social
ist Federation, the Greek Socialist
Union, the Irish American Labor
League, the Hungarian Workers
Federation and others.
Invitations to the convention are
being sent to the proletarian party,
with headquarters at Detroit, Mich,
to the Bohemian Socialist Federation,
at Chicago, H., that recently with
drew from the socialist party, while
special appeals will be made to the
left wing elements remaining in the
Italian Socialist Federation, the So
cialist labor party, the Jugo-Slav So
cialist Federation and other similar
organizations.
The call for the convention outlines
the conditions confronting the work
ers in this and other countries, de-
clarlng tnat:
cat this critical moment we must
have an organization that will not
only valiantly defend the workers, but
will also wage an aggressive battle
for the abolition of capitalism. Only
a revolutionary workers political
party can fulfill this task.
Soviet Inauguration
Such party will and must grow
out of the unity of all political
groups revolving against their old
reactionary leaderships, unable or un-
willing to meet the new conditions.
1t is not necessary to create this de
sire for unity. 1t is already a living
reality, grown out of the very strug-
gle of the masses, during the years
since the ending Of the world war
and the Inauguration of soviet rule in
Russia"

1t is an old trick of the guilty rogue
to raise the false cry of "stop, thief"
and divert attention while he makes
good his escape with the swag.
When the war ended and the Amer
lean people found time to look after
affairs at home they demanded a reck-
oning with those responsible for the
riot of plunder which ruled in Amer
lean business.
During the war the government had
called upon the people to give their
sons, to give their substance, to buy
liberty bonds, buy victory bonds, buy
thrift stamps, support drives for the
Red Cross, the Knights of Columbus
the Salvation Army, the Association
of Friends, to this worthy organiza-
tion and to that patriotic league
And the people did give and give
again. They gave out of all proper

their savings, the wage earners divid

EQUAL PAY

THERE Is one big issue to settle ir \ the world of business and labor the issue of cqual pay for equal work
 Evidences of injustice are found everywhere. One woman held posi- tion in d college for which she was paid Sl 500 a year. She resigned be. cause she needed a higher salary; q man took the position. He gets n sal. Hry of 5000. The United States gov ernment also pays women less than men in many positions.
 There are several reasons for this state of affairs. The fact that women were not voters is one of them. That will now cease to be deterrent.
 Then. women do not insist on being justly remunerated. Women are still new In business. IL Is something of a wonder to them that they are con. sIdered'worth q salary at all. They ac- cept what is offered. and make no kick when 1t Is less than their brother gets for similar position.
 Then, unfortunately, women often "' HUI si't aS E"ou ah h'Couhl UT themselves as men. Many women do as well as men, few do better, but many do not do as well. II Is these who make 1t possible to exploit the rest.
 It lies with women, finally. as to whether or not they shall receive equal pay. IL should be demanded by every woman. Also, the training of women for earning living must be improved. and the standards of her work bet tered.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"AS SSIN."

Y N 1O9O there was founded in \ Asia secret society known as the "Fedavis" or Devoted Ones," the members of which were pledged to implicit blind obedience to the orders of their superiors, no matter what d. rection these orders might take. HasSan ben Sabbah, the Per sian, who founded the dreaded order. was extremely explicit in the rules he laid down for the government of the organization, which was partly religious and partly secular in nature The members of the lower sections of the society were kept In total ignorance of the teachings and aims of the body to which they belonged, and 1t was impressed upon them that unfailing Obe- dience was their only key to success In this life and happi- ness in the next.
 In order to give them a fore taste of the joys which were in store for them, provided they followed instructions, Hassan ben Sabbah directed that they he given specified ration of hashlsh, or hemp-a narcotic which produced effects an- alogous to those resulting from the use of opium-and from this practice the members of the so- ciety became known as has hashin or hemp-eaters. Euro peans slightly. altered the word to assassin" and applied 1t to anyone guilty of murder, this crime being a favorite among the Feda&is.

 Yet before 1856 A. D.. no civilized country could boast n woman star There was no law against it, but Il was considered n disgrace for a woman to appear on the stage, and woman's parts. as in the Chinese theater of to- day, were taken by boys or men.

 WASHINGTON, Aug. II. - New strength is coming to the American navy from the heavens. The navy Is willing to greet it's new fighting arms-the air force-with open arms.
 Although the bombing tests which are now going on off the virginia Capes, in which air craft are given fair opportunity to demonstrate their effectiveness against naval vessels. have failed to convince the men of the navy that battle fleets can be conquered from the air alone, they have succeeded in convincing naval officers that air forces can be Of great aid to the navy in future war fare. There is a decided sentiment in the Atlantic fleet in favor of in- creased appropriations for air forces together with increased 'appropria- tions for the development of fighting seas want huge. fast aeroplane car riers in order that air forces may be depended upon as weapons of offense as well as defense in any war that may spring up in the years to come.
 With the use of aircraft the navy expects to develop successfully a new venture in naval warfare-iu- direct firing. The allied fleets used indirect fire in attacks upon land defenses during the World war, but it has never been successfully used in naval battles as yet. The men of the American navy are convinced that. with the aid of aircraft, they can develop an accuracy in indirect fire which will be deadly to the enemy
 Indirect firing is nothing more than shooting at an unseen target The target being found miles and miles away by the aeroplanes, it's To- cation and range being reported by aeroplane. and the fire directed by mathematical precision from battle ship within range, but out of sight of the enemy Indirect firing can be accomplished at a range of from 10000 yards upward, according to naval officers.
 The armies have used indirect fire in the World war with success. The nayies have used it in attacks on land defenses. Now come the Ameri- can naval officers to develop indirect fire on moving enemies at sea. It can be done. they are certain.
 The old battleship Iowa. under ra- dio control. is soon to be a target for the big guns of the big fleet, and, while plans have not been published, it is generally whispered about the fleet that the Iowa will be subjected to an attack by indirect fire If the naval gunners are able to score di- rect hits upon this maueuvering craft, which is out Of sight, then it is fairly certain that the future naval battles will he fought on the high seas when the opposing fleets are still out of sight Of each other, and only the aerial spotters will be visible.
