By International Labor News Service.
 Washington, Dec. News of the re- fusal of the Swedish Federation of Trade Unions to send delegates to the Russian Red Trade Union Congress has just been received here.
 Tn regard to most major points the Swedish refusal follows closely the viewpoint of the American Federation of Labor as expressed in it's various declarations regarding international af- fairs
 The Swedish Federation is affiliated to the International Federation of Trade Unions with headquarters at Amsterdam and 1t naturally expresses itself as in agreement with the policy of the Am sterdam organization.
 We fully appreciate" say the letter from the Swedish Federation of Trade Union, "the importance of cooperation between the trade unions of the various countries, and we recognize how neces- sary it is that the trade union leaders should obtain a first hand knowledge of the conditions in the various countries For that reason we regret very much that the Third International and its trade union section, with which your or ganization is affiliated, have, by their attacks against Western European trade unions and the Amsterdam International, made it possible for us to accept your invitation
 "Just recently the Management Com mittee of the Amsterdam International declared that it was desirable that the united front should be established, na- tionally and internationally. The Man. agement Committee is, however, of the opinion " that trade union unity can only be of real use and value when an at nlosphere is created and mutual esteem and mutual confidence.
 ITO this end the hostile acts and at tacks directed against the International Federation of Trade Unions, it's affilia- ted organizations, and its leaders must cease once and for all. ,
 Moreover, the Russian workers must, like the organized workers in the other countries, declare their willingness to fight war and reaction in all its forms in their own land"
 We for our part fully share these views and indorse the decision taken by our International; we to agree that the various national centers should act in accordance with the directions given by a unanimous decision of our Interna- fional."
 ss II ID CICStHlS LO HOLG LflG uHpll6Q charge of soviet nlilitarist inclinations and defense of those inclinatons by the red trade union organization
 The decision with which the Swedish Federation expresses its agreement is undoubtedly the decision reached by the International Federation of Trade Unions to oppose all wars by the use of a general strike, decision with which the American Federation of Labor has expressed its disagreement
 The letter from the Swedish Fedora tion continues to say:
 The Swedish Trade Union Move. rnent IS based on domestic principles and has carried on a successful struggle against the employers and reactionaries. During the 40 years that our movement has been in existence all its members have always had an opportunity to give. free expression to their views and to

happy skit "The Kick and the Chick"
 Sheldon Brooks IS the colored singer and composer and when 1t is recalled that he wrote such pieces of ssyncopa- ton as "Strutter's Ball." Some one of these Days" "A1l Night Long" and others, 1t may be broadcasted that this chap known the music of the day up and down the scale.
 More comedy has its place on the com ing bill in the skit "Char1ey's Night Out" cleverly played by Charles Senna and Helen Dean We'll versed in comedy cross fire conversation and lyric singing. Senna and Dean quickly make laugh ing welcome for themselves. Eva Es- mond and Pat Grant are two boys Of sunshine in their little vehicle "Just I've Kids"
 Three famous stars of the speaking stage as we'll as the screen appear in 'EThe Last Moment" the Palace selected photo play for the first three days of the week. These are Henry Hull, Doris Kenyon and Louis Wolheim and triple entante of acting they certainly form "The Last Moment" is gripping tale of melodramtic adventure. High tension situations arising from the unfolding of plot unusual even for the picture screen make this Go1dwyn production |; picture well worth the attention of the most critical and exacting.
 While essentially story of the sea "The Last Moment" provides its obser- vors with many new elements of the dra- ma and the fighting type of sailor, the brutal mate and dyspotic captain are ne- giected for other more unusual cfarac- ters than those ordinarily used in the telling of adrama of the forecastle.

WOODBRIDGE, Dec. LITTLE
minstrel show by the Mems Brother
hood of the First Presbyterian
church In the high school audito-
rum last night was a huge success.
The first end song, when It's
Night Time In Italy" by William
7Willsey, made q splendid hit and
gave the audience an mixing of
what was to follow. The ballads
and love songs of Wenzel Wolney,
Charles Mueller, Albert Bowers and
Arthur Levi were very well received
and heartily encored. The buck and
wing dance of Charles Levi was an
other snappy feature.
The end song, "Mose," by George
Robinson was enthusiastically en-
cored. But "Ten-Ten-Tennessee" as
given by Ellwood Johnson was a
truly professional production. Each
encore given by Mr.. Johnson was
greeted with greater applause until
the audience realized that owing to
their enjoyment they were asking
for too much. The novelty duo
"Gallagher and Shean," by William
and Robert Heller in their sporty
costumes and natty airs c~aptivated
the audience. Their tender years
making the performance more re-
markable in its excellence.
The end song, Down on the
Farm" by John Blair was capital
and created in more than n heart
the desire to return to the old days.
Then came the reading by Rev. l..
W. Buschmann, "a Black Bluegrass
Widow" In which the joys and woes
OF the dusky lady in many gorgeous
pieces of finery borrowed from the
fair members of his congregation
>-shons forth. Particular mention
should be made of his highly colored
s~"orange blossoms most appropriate
for the Christmas season. AS an en-
core Mr.. Buschmann gave the exper-
fences of Mr.. and Mrs. Thayer Mar
tin at the "Tiger and Cubs and
''White Sox" baseball games, bring
ing in several local hits. This of
course brought down the house.
John Short then gave "That a Lot
of Bunk" which was a ~cleverly WOW
en- song of purely local coloring and
was enjoyed immensely.
The novelty song, "DeeZe, Dooze,
DEM by Gustav Agreen was another
excellent hit. Gus showered Jolly
pops most effectively during the
chorus.
The final end song, maggie Come
Right Upstairs by Asher FftZ RAN
dolph was a finished product the
pleasing final touch being the an
swer to his song in the chorus by
Mrs. Randolph who presided at the
piano.
Mr.. Randolph was chairman of
the entertainment and was presented
by Mrs. w. b. Krug with a garden
bouquet composed of cauliflower,
cranberries, carrots and lettuce
which was a real work of art, Mrs.
Randolph was presented with a
bunch of roses and other choice
flowers by the cast.
The choruses were dandy and the
Jokes went across In fine style. Mr..
Potter was a most dignifled inter-
: locutor.
The auditorium and corridors
we're filled to capacity and every
body enjoyed the evening.
The chorus and committee in
charge follow:
Chorus: WenzeI Wolney, Carl
Hansen. John Breckenridge, John
Richards, James Filler, Chas. Muel-
Ter, Gustav Agreen. Irving Reimers,

Changes. including the t~ransposi'

departments, nearing completion at
the Lincoln plant division of the

When a manufacturing plant is

ia a matter OF considerable difficulty
to move a large portion of machinery
from one place to another. Yet
this is just what is being done at
the Lincoln plant and without the
least halt in output.
In fact. with the steadily increas'
ing demand which the Lincoln Is en-
joying, production. through the In
PRODUCTION of greater facilities, has
been moved up and a new output

OAKLAND MOTORS SUBJECTED TO GRUELLING TEST
TO MAINTAIN HIGH EFFICIENCY OF AUTOMOBILES

ously tested than ever before IN the
| history Of the Oakland Motor Car
company.
A specially shaped combustion
chamber OF the Ricardo type is used
giving greater power per cubic inch
OF piston displacement without fuel
knocks or detonation. Oakland is
probably the first company which
has built both overhead and L-head
motors OF the same bore md stroke
and duo 10 the new developments in
I-head construction. Il has been
found that this type of engine gives
the greatest power and best perfor'
nance.
The motor has bore OF 2 1915
inches and n stroke OF Az inches,
with a total piston displacement Of
1T cubic inches. which is exactly
the same as the previous Oakland
engine.
There are 1874 fewer parts on the
valve mechanism than on fits pre-.
decessor.
Each cylinder is completely sur
rounded with water-jnckoted space.
which gives an even temperature
throughout the engine. The cylinder
block has a detachable head and tho
block and crank case are separate
unlta. This construction makes IT
possible o replace n cylinder block
without refitting crank shaft or the
bearings and without removing tho
motor from the chassis.

Once again the now L-head type
motors on the 1924 Oakland models
are being subjected to nearly the

1t is proposed that special taxes
from motor vehicles be based upon
the benefits which they derive from
the roads, and should be applied ex-
clusiveiy for maintenance purposes.
The endorsed by the com
mittees OF four bodies is as follows.
'A-States in the initial state Of
highway development should issue
bonds to defer that portion of the
annual charge for construction
which would overburden either prop
orty or the road user.
"B-States where original con-
struction programs are we'll under
way can. in the main, finance nor
mai new construction from current
funds, utilizing bond ssue funds to
defer the cost OF special projects.
Estates where original coustruc-
tion is largely completed are con-
cerned chiefly with maintenance and
reconstruction. and should depend
on current funds in cases of emery
ency.
"D-The maintenance OF inter
state and state highways should be
n charge against the road user.
"E-Roads serving n purely local
purpose viii generally require only
