NOTICE TO QUIT
Poincare Hands In His
Resignation
Especial 70 The Daily w0rksrl


PARIS, June Raymond Poincare
and his cabinet resigned. The next
resignation may be that Of President
Millerand.
At a caucus Of the left groups held
yesterday, It was decided to refuse
the task Of forming government at
the hands Of Millerand. In other
words, the presidents resignation is
demanded.
AS Poincare was leaving the Elysees
palace after officially bringing his gov
ernment's career to an end. Miller
and expressed the hope that they
would return soon.
A motion reading: I'VE declare that
no member Of the Radical Socialist
party can accept from President Mil
lerand the task of forming cabinet"
was rejected by the left caucus as too
harsh, and the following amendment
adopted: I'VE believe the mainten-
ance Of Elysees by President Miller
and wounds the republican conscience
and will be source Of incessant con-
fiicts between the government and
chief of stan and a constant danger
for the regime itself.
The strength Of the respective
groups in the left bloc is as follows;
Radical Socialists, 142; Unified So
cialists, 102 (this is the party Of Jean
Longuet and corresponds to the
American Socialist party and favors
the Dawes plan); Independent Social
lists, 8; Republican Socialists, A, and
40 radical lefts who are under Bri-
and's influence. The 20 Communist
deputies are not in the left bloc,
which is left only in the sense that
it represents a different group Of in
terests from those backing Poincare.
The Unified Socialists have not yet
agreed to accept cabinet positions In
the next government, but If Herriot
agrees to their demand that he re-
fuse to form a government unless
MiIlerand resigns the presidency, the
Socialists may reconsider their policy
of refusing to collaborate with CAPT
talist parties in the cabinet. The old
er Socialists, including Paul Boncour,
Pierre Renuadel and Alexandra Va
renne, have publicly advocated the
nolicx Of cabinet collaboration, and
poiitscal prophets Immediately after
the elections were of the opinion that
the protests of the Socialists against
accepting portfolios in the Herriot
cabinet were only for bargaining pur-
poses.
The so-called moderate Socialists
are willing that Herriot should form
a government provided MilIerand
agrees to quit-on June 10. 1t is ru-
mored that the president will stick. to
his job like limpit to a rock until he
is forced to quit.

MISS FLYNN HITS
/. KHAN MENACE AT
FEDERATION MEET
Denounces Attack On
Foreign Born Labor.

Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, of the
American Civil Liberties Union, who
is in Chicago covering a series Of
speaking dates, will lecture Wednes-
day evening, before members of the
Liberal Club in the Y. M. c. A. Build
ing at Is S. La Sale street On Thurs
day night Miss Flynn addresses the
Amalgamated Food Workers Union
at 214 N. State street.
Speaking on free speech before the
Chicago Federation Of Labor meeting
Sunday, Miss Flynn defended the for
eign-born workers. She said the new
immigration laws are used as sword
hanging over the heads Of the foreign
born workers, which will be dropped
by the employers to deport the work
ers in time of strikes and labor trou-
BILE.
Hits X. X. X. and Legion.
"There are reactionary elements in
the American Legion, who, like the
Ku Klux Khan and the American Fas-
cisti, are trying to create reign of
terror in this country by stirring up
hatred and dividing the workers by
antagonizing creeds, religions and ma
tionalities against each other.
Miss Flynn declared that William j..
Burns had tried to create red men,
ace" in order to get larger appropria-
lions out of Congress for his Bureau
of Investigation, and now has resigned
to go back to his nine grandchildren.
1.-THE one hundred per cent Ameri-
cans object to the foreigners being
radical" said Miss Flynn. "But what
makes the foreigner radical. He
comes to this country enthusiastic
about opportunities he has been led
to expect. The United States Steel
Corporation thru president Gary was
recently dickering with Mussolini for
him to transfer regiments Of Italian
workers to Gary's steel mills. Gary
is after cheap labor.
Strike For Better Living.
GAS soon as the foreign-born work
er becomes acclimated he becomes
disconnected with his low standard OF
living and joins a union and fights for
decent standard of living. I say a
striker who is fighting for better con-
ditions is a better American than a
good slave"
Conditions in the industry of this
country are what make the foreign
born workers radical. The reason
these hundred per cent American or
CARNATIONS are fighting free speech.
is because LABOR has something to say,
and they fear the possibility OF labor
solidifying its ranks and debating
more and more the policies OF the
government"
Khan Signs at Mercer.
Miss Flynn told how at the trial OF
Creation worker in Mercer, Pa, un-
der a charge of criminal syndicalism,
the Ku Klux Khan terrorized the jury
by posting large signs at the entrance
to the court room. She told how one
negro woman on the jury had tears
in her eyes as she concurred in the
verdict Of guilty" but for fear Of
the Khan, did not dare to give the
Creation worker the constitutional
right Of free speech.

BRITISH LABOR
GOVERNMENT HAS
NARROW ESCAPE
Liberal Vote Blocks
Tory Attack


LONDON, June q The Ramsay
Macdonald government has weathered
another storm. BY vote Of 800 to
252 it resisted the attempt Of the
Tory party to defeat it on the I'M
employment issue. The parliament
tary technicality employed was mo-
ton to reduce the salary of Tom
Shaw, labor minister, one hundred
pounds.
The liberals supported the Labor
government with a very poor grace.
Asquith warned Macdonald that he
could not continue giving his support
unless the Labor party's election
promises were fulfilled. Ramsay Mac
Donald asks for more time and con
fesses that the task Of making CAPT.
talist governmental machine serve the
interests Of the workers who are un-
employed-even in a small way-is
much more difficult than he expected
The premier promised that, if given
time, he would revive business and
put the unemployed to work, thus
lifting heavy tax burden off the
backs of the public" But in spite
Of his rosy optimism, his cabinet
figures on a permanent army of un
employed numbering 100000 men. A
rather formidable army for the CAPT
talists to contemplate supporting A
war to wipe out that many would be
blessing providing there were nc
other complications. But wars have
nasty habit of bringing other
troubles in their train.
The liberals fear to tackle the prob
lem of forming government. The
unemployment problem is the hard
est nut for any government to. crack,
Asquith prefers to let Macdonald get
wrecked before he assumes the sal
vaging role. The Tories are growing
in unpopularity. Macdonald feels
that he is safe for some time to come.
Several labor cabinet officials air
planed to the continent after the vote
was taken Stephen Walsh, secre-
tary OF state for war, went to Cologne
for a two-day official inspection of
British forces along the Rhine. Lord
Thompson went to Prague to open
the aeronautical exposition there
Frank Hodges, chief Of His Majesty's
navy, went to Vienna on another mis-.
sion.
Meanwhile discomfort in the ranks
of labor over the inability or the u1f
willingness of the so-called labor gov
eminent to relieve the workers con
dition is growing. Macdonald and
/ his crew are almost entirely con.
cerned with stretching out their term
in office as long as possible. They
are shedding their Socialist" camou-
fage. They are wearing two faces
and speaking two languages these
days. To the capitalists they are
imperialists and for the preservation
Of the present system. To the work
ers, they are for the establishment
of new order. Only J. H. Thomas
repudiates socialism entirely and
openly boasts of the present system
and the blessings of Imperialism.

Its Hooks in Everything.
General Electric, close relative, re-
member, of Western Electric, has as
subsidiaries companies manufacturing
all kinds of electric appliances, glass
works, and holding companies which
control electric railways and electric
light companies turnout the country.
Electric irons, lamps, vacuum clean
ers,. washing machines, motors, every
thing, bring their returns to General
Electric and Western Electric. Even
carfare is likely to go into the Golfers
Of the power trust.
The story of the electric family is
as fascinating as a fairy tale, but it's
painfully true. II hurts the worker

his home, every time he rides on the
street railway, whenever his wife
irons, or cooks, or washes, if she is
lucky enough to have electric ma

Ferblds Workers to Organize.
But it is most painfully true when
the worker is employed by the cleo
trio trust, the great family which COB
bles up so greedily all the profits it
can from the workers and farmers,
too, of this country.
The worker employed by any Of the
fat electric family finds that he can
not organize with his fellow workers
to get little more for himself out of
the company No, the bosses want all
the organization for themselves! The
worker must believe the eighteenth
century ideas Of free individual action.
He must deal single handed with the
boss, altho the boss has long ago
learned that he can get fatter by mar
rying his sons and daughters into all
sorts of companies and keeping all the
business he can right in the family"
Largest In World.
The Western Electric company has
the largest plant manufacturing tele-
phone and electrical equipment in the
world. This plant is at Hawthorne,
Just on the edge of Chicago and
Cicero. And Western Electric is build
ing the second largest plant Of its
kind in the world at Kearny, N. ].
The big ad of the Western Electric
in the Saturday Evening Post and on
the back of its own drug-dispensing
Western Electric News shows a pic
ture Of the new plant, and heads IT.:
How your voice is turning marsh
into an industrial city" Then there
is a picture OF the 10000 workers
pouring out Of the Hawthorne works
