The 25 per cent tax reduction has not cut into Uncle Sam's income so much after all. Revenues collected between July 1 and October 31 show a decrease of but 9,393, ASA under the same period of last year. In spite of the 25 per cent tax cut actual collections by the gov ernment this year are only running about 10 per cent under last. Loss of revenue is therefore not as serious as supposed and we may have further tax cuts without completely bankrupting the national government.

ties will differ as to the motives be-
hind Hughes insistence that Japanese
politicians must not be offended by the
exclusion law.
Some will say that in this case
Hughes stands for world peace and
is opposed to stirring up racial sen.
sibilities-especially when America
and France and Japan have SO smooth.
ly-working an arrangement in the Far
East, to prevent China from falling
under radical Russian influence.
Others will say that Hughes is not
moved so much by love of peace as
by calculation that Japanese revo-
luton is threatened, and any sacri-
flee of the privileges of Congress is
better than liberation OF an infuri-
ated working class upon the militarist
imperialism now ruling Nippon.
Still others win say that Hughes is
naturally submissive to ambassadors
and financiers who know exactly what
they want. In any case, Hughes has
joined with Coolidge in concealing
from the voters of California the fact
that the exclusion program was to be
delayed pending the negotiation OF
special treaty which would recognize
the right of Japan to voice in Amer
lean immigration control. And
Hughes, who lost California and the
presidency in 1916 by betraying and
affronting the progressives, now sees
his chief headed in the same direc-
ton.
The conference report on the i'm
migration bill does not contain the
King amendment which would safe
guard the Seamen's Act. 1t is re-
ported to be in substantially the
same form as approved by the House
giving the Secretary of Labor the
power to put oppressive restrictions
upon the coming ashore in American
ports of alien seamen who quit their
own ships in order to gain the Amer
lean scale of wages and to force their
late masters to pay that scale to any
one employed to take the ship home
again.
On the issue of protecting foreign
seamen in the equalizing of wage
costs between American and foreign
ports, the progressives in both hous-
es win wage a new fight when the
report comes up for action.

The citizens Of this community will

the real issue in the controversy.
The matter of wages and hours has
become secondary. The fact that
some of our men have to work is

real issue is the question Of the

Whereas, The process of manufac-
turing in our industry has been split
up among numerous contractors, ev-
cry one of whom has little sweat
shop where a certain part of the gar

Whereas, The tendency of the
manufacturers to encourage an ever
stronger entrenchment Of the con-
tracing system in our industry, has
enabled them to forge a very powerful
and successful weapon in their strug-

Resolved, That the incoming G. e.
B. be instructed Immediately after the

struggle against this division in our
industry, and use all the power of our

participate in the shaping of the poll

Whereas, Such conditions delay

of our organization; and
Whereas, Our unions are still
based on narrow craft divisions,
which give rise to petty craft inter
