treachery in signing a Lands award agreement is

spectacular program at the House of
the Masses, 2646 st. Aubin SITS, Dec.

"The Children's Auction" scene from

the program, which promises to be
one of the most interesting presenta-
tions ever given to a working class
audience in Detroit.
The junior section of the Y. w. l..

months and now has one hundred
members, every one of whom will par
ticipate in this program. From the

HEURIOT'S RED
RAIDS TURN The
LAUGH ON HIM
Communists RidicuIe
Terror Campaign
lspeoIaI 70 rhe paIIy workerl

PARIS, Dec. 1o.-The raids
on the Communists inaugurated
by the Herriot government have
now become the laughing stock
of France.
Herriot has been ordered to
bed by his physicians, while thT
Communists came off with fly
ing colors.
Herirot Ridiculed.
A Communist deputy made an at
tack on Herriot for his ''red raid" and
ridiculed the government for using
such drastic measures against the
MARKHAM socialist schools which have
existed in France for the past thirty
years without interference. Several
Communist deputies had the house in
Iconvulsions of laughter over the ludi
crous pictures cut by Herriot and his
armies in quelling the revolution" the
existence Of which he was made aware
by Austen Chamberlain, tory secretary
for foreign affairs.
Herriot denied that his actions were
repressive or directed against free
speech. THE Communist simply did
not say or do the things Herriot
believes in, therefore they must be
suppressed.
Feared Communism.
That the repressive measures en-
ployed by Herriot against the Com
munists were not due to any sudden
decision on his part, but rather to
deep seated fear of the growth of
Communism was proven by the fact
that more French capital was exported,
invested in foreign securities, during
the past week than in any two
previous months.
The capitalist newspapers that have
been calling for repressive measures
against the Communist menace for the
past few weeks have Gained down
considerably owing to the depression
on the bourse and to the failure of
the government to rally the masses
behind it in its attack on the Com
munists.

have been contributed to the bazaar.
The articles in this collection are
hand crotcheted laces of the most ar

preciated But when we tell you that
they have been exhibited in all the
principal countries Of Europe, that
they have been on exhibition in the
largest cities in this country and that
they have been awarded the gold
medal at the last Panama exhibition
you can get some idea of the value
of these pieces Of art handicraft that
have been valued by connoisseurs at
thousands of dollars.
You can get these beautiful art cob
lections and at the same time be per

A henchman of Morones from the c.

tackled the Guatemalan saying that the
Guatemalan government demands
withdrawal of American troops, then
why should the labor delegate to the
congress ask it to interfere? This
was rather stretching logic, so the
Mexican openly stated that the Pan
American Federation of Labor was
opened to interference in the inter
nal affairs" of governments. He tried
to make a point by claiming that the
Guatemalan asserted that capitalism
was international, then he advocated
nationalism. The Mexican stated that
the Pan-American federation was mot
an instrument of offense, but only a
moral factor, each union group work
ing within its own boundary"
A Fair Offer.
The Guatemalan retorted that the
class struggle was international, but
he would be satisfied if the American
Federation of Labor would work Elm
side its own country for withdrawal
of American troops from Guatemala,
against the Plat amendment, and for
the non-recognition by the United
States of any government who did not
recognize the right to organize"
