COMMUNISTS
Aid Anti Union Employers
in Cloak Trade

New York-Cloak manufacturers
in Toledo, Ohio, are using literature
of the communists as an argument
against the International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union, according to
Justice, official magazine of that
union. 1t is another case of reaction
and revolution travelling together.
The employers use the circulars
and sheets published by the trade
union educational league, says JUS
tice. "a few weeks ago the local
manufacturers assembled their work
ers and read from them extracts from
I. U. E. L. publications and said to
them: DO you now see what your
union is and who your leaders are?.'
"After the reading they pointed out
to the workers that the union is a
corrupt organization and that it's lead
ers are again coming to Toledo to
them When one of the work
ers, not union member, remarked
that the statements and the circulars
are false, one of the employers re-
piled that the publishers of the cir
culars are honorable men and should
be trusted"
Justice states that the owner of the
Kohn, Friedlander and Martin firm in
Toledo will not employ man unless
the applicant brings his wife and she
guarantees that her husband will not
join the union. This makes the wife
a party to the yellow dog" contract
that the worker is generally asked to
sign without his wife's consent,
though the wife and little ones may
not eat if the yellow dog" is not
accepted.

OUT-OF-WORK PROB
LEM DISCUSSED
BY UNIONIST

Calgary, Alberta.-The unemploy-
ment problem can not be solved while
employers reap all the advantages of
economy in production, said Frank
Wheatley, president of the Alberta
Federation of Labor, in an address
to the local trades and labor council.
The speaker pointed out that the
development of improved machinery
and the advancement of science in in
dustry were continually reducing en-
ployment. Dealing with the number
of days worked by the average miner
in this province, Mr.. Wheatley said
the average last year was $50 days,
and for 1924 the present average was
rs days. The speaker declared that
the workers purchasing power must
be increased, the hours of labor short
ened and each industry must be re-
sponsible for it's own unemployed"

SOVIET RUSSIA
Has New Demand; Nations
Must Accept Com
muniSm

Williamstown, MaSs.-In a debate
on recognition of Soviet Russia by the
United States, at the institute of
politcis here, Rev. FIR. Edmund A.
Walsh pointed out one abstacle that
was not mentioned in the discussion.
The speaker is regent of the school
of foreign service of Georgetown uni
versity and was director general of
the papal relief mission to Russia in
1872. He said the soviet government
has created an entirely new set of
conditions, which makes it impossible
to class Russia with other countries
that enter into treaties with the
United States.
"By the adoption of the new soviet
constitution on July 6, 1928" he ex-
planned, "a new state was proclaimed
and a situation created which, in my
opinion, materially alters the entire
problem. The United States govern
ment is now expected to recognize
not Russia, which no longer exists
as treaty making power, but union
of socialist soviet republics of the
world. This union, as described by
it's founders, is intended to event
ually embrace the entire known
world, every other country, including
America, being invited to join as
constituent state, and whenever the
invitation is refused the recalcltrant
country is to be forced into the union
by revolutionary uprisings.
"Section 81 of the new constitution
clearly divides the world into two
camps, that of capitalism and that
of socialism, while its closing para
graph declares that the union of the
four republics therein mentioned is
the first decisive step toward the
union of the toilers of all countries
! into one world soviet socialist re-
public.
| "What the United States govern
ment is asked, therefore, to recog
nize, with all the implications and
obligations of recognition, is not Rus
sia, but an idea, a new political
science, new theory of government
which, because of its unique charac-
J ter and potential universally, is dia-
metrically and militantly opposed to
the constitution of the United States"

Women Voters Lay
Down Planks; Want
u. S. In World Court

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Federal
child labor laws; entrance of the
United States into world court, in
creased appropriations for the wo-
mems bureau, children's bureau and
bureau of home economics; enforce
ment of the merit system in Office,
and the equalization of educational
opportunity thruout the country are
few of the biggest "planks" laid
down by the National League of Wo-
men voters in the platform that they
will present to the conventions of all
parties in the forthcoming elections.
The women are making their main
fight against war by urging the part
icipation Of this country in the world
court and their plank includes an
emphasis to the senate to take the
action necessary for United States
entrance into the court.
The elimination of legal discrimi-
nation against women is demanded
by the Women's League in the plank
urging Specific measures not pre-
judicial to women's labor laws or to
special welfare legislation"

West Virginia Miners
Vote On Abolition Of
Four Subj districts

CHARLESTON, w. Va, May 2S.-
Abolition of the four subdistricts of
District IL northwestern and central
West virginia) will be voted on by
immediate referendum of the coal
miners of the district. The proposal
to concentrate administration of the
union in the district officers and
board was carried by the special
Charleston convention of 500 dele
gates held in May. 1t is an economy
measure to make relief of the starv-
ing unemployed miners possible.
In the Kanawha field 10000 union
miners and their families are hungry
because the operators refuse to ac-
knowledge the Jacksonville (Fla.)
agreement that rules in the central
competitive field. The convention
voted that any miner unable to get
two days week work outside the in
dustry shall be entitled il destitute
to food from the district Office for
himself and family, consisting of
-four, meal, bacon, lard, sugar, coffee,
salt, baking powder, pepper, soda and
also soap.

Big BUSINESS WILL
HAVE PERFECT HOLD
ON G 0. P. CONCLAVE

WASHINGTON, May a. From
the opening prayer to the final word,
the convention Of the Repub-
Ican Party to be held In Cleveland,
June II, promises to be one Of com
pIete harmony and accord, with the
machine in complete control. The
program Is all worked out. Present
Indications are that the convention
will last about three days. Three
days Of perfect peace and harmony
Is the schedule.
According to the dope the first
session will open by John r. Adams
asking a reverend gent to offer a
prayer. 1t Will be done and then the
delegates will sing and Adams will
suggest that Theodore Burton be
made temporary chairman. This will
probably be done. Burton will
spread the apple sauce and then the
committees will be appointed. That
will not amount to much and II will
probably end the day. The delegates
will then get down to the serious
business Of having a good time
while they are away from home.
The second day the committees will
report. Someone will be nominated
for permanent chairman. It will, no
doubt, be Burton.
The suggested platform will be
read and adopted. Eminent leaders
Of the G. o. p. will arise to shoot
the bunk and the delegates will ad-
journ to serious business.
The third day the convention will
nominate Coolidge for President
amid cheers and then nominate a
candidate for Viee-presIdent and the
, show will be over. That Is how the
great concIave OF G. o. p. harmony
and good will looks as II It will ar
range itself.
Big Business will rule the whole
show without fuss or tumble. No
body will deny It and nobody will do
anything about It because that is as
it should be.

Democrats Desert
Progressives AT
Rail Bill Crisis

WASHINGTON, May 2S.- Because
a large proportion Of the 2O3 members
Of the House who voted to take up the
Howell Barley railroad labor bill on
May 10, failed to stay in the fight
thru the evening session, the enemies
of this labor measure were able to
carry a motion to strike out its enact
ing clause. The friends of the bill
then battled for hours to restore the
enacting clause, which was accom-
plished, but they adjourned at 1917
p. m. without bringing the bill near to
passage.
The session was marked by hostile
manuevers led by Mapes, Sanders,
Graham of Illinois, Blanton, William
son of South Dakota, Free of Califor-
mia, Newton of Minnesota, Sinnott of
Oregon and Burtness Of North Dako-
ia. At the end, the railroad lawyers
were jubilant, claiming that they
could tilibuster thru the next calendar
discharge day, the first Monday in
June, and that adjournment would
then kill the bill until next winter.
There is now demand by the pro-
gressives that the Democrats join
them in refusing to permit adjourn
ment OF Congress until this filibuster
has ended and the bill is put to final
rollcall. Failure of great numbers of
Democratic members to stand by the
railroad labor measure in the evening
session of May 10 by remaining on the
floor, has disclosed the insincere char
acter of this support. When every
thing depended upon having 200
friends of the bill on the floor to pre-
vent it's being throttled by adverse ac-
ton, just 134 were there to vote
against striking out the enacting
clause. The roll was called few
minutes later, and 211 voted against
adjournment But they ran out as
soon as another hostile motion had
been stopped.

Noah Not Nautilus
Favorite Prophet
OF u. S. Farmers

CHICAGO. May 2S.-There is no
race suicide on the farms, the Sears
Roebuck Agricultural Foundation
stated today. But the only effect Of
this is to enrich the cities, the Found
alton said.
Comparing the entire farm popula-
ton of 32.00O,0O0 with the same num-
Der in cities, Americas farm families
have 100000 more children under 21
than the city families" the report
stated.
Farm communities also. have A.
100000 fewer grown-ups than do the
cities, so with 100000 fewer produc-
ers, the farm families of the nation
are carrying the burden Of rearing,
feeding, housing, clothing and educat-
ing 100000 more children than their
urban neighbors."

More Churchmen Want
To Forget Civil War
And Outlaw All War

GRAND RAPIDS. Mich, May 2S.-
Steps toward mending the schism be-
tween the northern and southern
branches of the Presbyterian church,
existing since Civil war days, may be
taken some time this week at the
136th general assembly Of the Pres
byterian church in the United States
Of America, (Northern).
The break between the northern
and southern churches came at the
general assembly of 1851 in Philadel-
phia, when resolution declaring for
union and loyalty to President Lin
coin was adopted. In protest against
the resolution, the southern churches
withdrew and forced separate body.
AS the assembly got down to work
today, 1t appeared that the first order
Of business would be discussion of a
resolution to outlaw war.

What Yale Education Does

NEW HAVEN, Conn.--After four
years at Yale the college boys grad
uating this spring show the following
results OF goose-step education: In
the scientific school Ill of the 125
voting stated that they expect to
belong to the Republican party. In
the liberal arts division 221 out of the
270 voting made the same declaration.
The Democrat party got 30 votes in
both divisions combined. Asked who
was the biggest world figure Of the
present time, the scientific students
gave Coolidge 20 votes, leading the
second highest man by s. On the
liberal arts side. Lenin got four votes,
one more than Secretary OF the
Treasury Mellon. Coolidge got 2s.

Coolidge May Not
Deliver Muscle Shoals
To Flivver Kaiser

WASHINGTON May 2S.-Henry
Ford's grab of Muscle Shoals power
has been defeated in the Senate com
mittee on agriculture by vote Of 10
to 6, and Chairman Norris is confident
that he and Sen. Johnson of Mime
sofa will win their fight for straight
public ownership of that resource.
Judson King, secretary of the Ma
tional Popular Government League,
urging the committee to vote for pub
lie ownership and operation, put in
evidence receipted bills for residence
and hotel rates, here and in Ontario,
showing that for 1874 kilowatts in
Washington the charge was $2S.1S for
a month, while in Niagara Falls, Ont,
it was only $3.55; for the Hotel La
Fayette here the charge for 10000
kilowatts was S425.00, and for the
Hotel Lafayette in Niagara Falls,
Ont, for 5000 kilowatts it was $93.42.
The half Of the Niagara Falls in
ternational bridge lighted by the pub
licly owned power system of Ontario
paid $S.43 for months service, and
the American half was lighted in ex-
actly the same degree by privately
owned power for $43.10.
Carl Vrooman of Illinois, former as
sistant secretary of agriculture. urged
the committee to stand for govern
ment control as against private ex-
ploitation.
