Achieving Socialism"
The Lithuanian federation has but
a mere handful of members, yet it is
able to publish daily newspaper, be-
cause it's heads have evolved a new
method to attain the "co-operative
commonwealth" They organize a
number of companies, sell shares,
and then the companies go bankrupt
in some mysterious manner. The
Universal Chemical Co., Incorporated
in Delaware, for "S1, 100000" with
its main Office in Chicago, the Kujol-
Bingol Company and a numbet of
others are examples Of how they are
achieving their goal"
Not only have they created COM
panies for their own use but they also
have carried the advertising of Har-
rington, Appel and other individuals
who are now either fugitives from the
law or who are on trial for defraud-
ing the workers with their Ponzi
schemes. :.
One of their latest schemes was the
attempt TO get Jne Lithuanian WOfk-
ers to turn over their hard-earned
money so they could exploit some
mysterious so-called concession in
China. Full-page ads were carried
telling of vast deposits of gold,
platinum, silver, lead, oil, etc, etc.
But thanks to the Communist press,
the workers were warned in time and
it proved dud.
In Lawsuit With Stockholders.
tcNaujienos" at present has six
cases in the law courts with its share
holders. 1t has instituted loan as
ISOLATION at present and undoubtedly
this will 90 the same way as the other
companies which have been organized
by them. This is the kind Of socialism
that its being peddled out daily to the
Lithuanian workers.
These are the tactics of the social
lists in America. They are not only
the allies of the capitalist class, but
they are also competing with the
capitalist class in their attempt to
amass wealth.

plan the alien whose declaration Of
intention is two years Old and not
more than seven years old. and who
has lived five years in the United
States and one year in the state,
may write to his county clerk or the
clerk of the United States court
nearby and secure by mail applica-

his declaration attached ne may mail
to the chief naturalization examiner,
whose name appears on the applica-

If there are mistakes in the docu-
ment it will be mailed back for cor
rection; if there are no mistakes in
it the chief examiner will notify the
applicant to appear with his wit
nesses for oral examination, to veri-
fly the facts given in the form. The
alien will then be directed to the
Office of the clerk of the court TO file
his petition. This process saves one
days time taken from breadwinning
and one-third Of the legal expense.

NO CHEER FOR
FRENCH PATRIOTS
IN SAINT JOAN
French Sold French
Maid to English
By LUDWELL DENNY.
staH Correspondent Of Federated Pressl

NEW YORK, April An unin-
territorial farce interlude was played
on the Empire theatre stage here
when a group of French women who
missed the point of the play, tried
to use Bernard Shaw's satire saint
Joan" for propaganda purposes.
After the third act Of the play, which
ridicules the French for burning a
hereto and canonizing her after she
can cause no more trouble, Nine.
earle Polifeme of lie Lyceum society
Of French women in America, APP
peared before the footlights. Officers
of the society set the stage with
large silk French and American flags
and turned loose the patriotic jazz.
When Nine. Polifeme had said
her piece, Winifred Lehman, the
Joan of the play, was hauled on
the stage. To the white-gloved APP
plause Of lie Lyceum ladies, who
bought half the orchestra seats TO
secure permission for the our-glori-
ous-ally stuff, little girl dressed as
a French peasant handed Miss Leni-
han bunch Of flowers tied up in the
French tricolor. When the child re-
cited a memorized French speech, l.
Lyceum in the orchestra seats be-
came almost hysterical with I'M
hyphenated patriotic fervor-for
France.
Lyceumites Play Asinine Role.
Then the regular audience, most
of whom had been taking a turn IN
the corridors, filed back to their
seats, and the curtain went up on
the Rouen trial scene. The Catholic
priests of the Inquisition condemn
Joan for heresy and arrange for the
British soldiers to burn her, while the
French mob gloat over the torture Of
their erstwhile heroine and savior.
The epilogue depicted the return of
the now sainted Joan TO her inquisi-
tors who have become her worship
pers, but who threaten to resign as
worshippers unless Joan stays in her
far away safe heaven where she be-
longs. The purpose Of the epilogue
is to spell out the moral of the pldy
for the more stupid members Of the
audience who miss the point Of the
preceding acts. But even this was
over the heads Of the fag-waving
Lyseumites.
While the French ladies, petite and
otherwise, were cavorting between
the acts of c. B. S., the European
mails brought to New York the copy
of a letter by Shaw which might have
been written to lie Lyeeum. Shaw
writes to the Paris journal Comoedia,
in which bitter controversy regard
ing the play is raging:
Shaw's Criticism.
"The real woman in Joan Is still
as unpopular in her own country" he
reminds the French, "as she was
when the Burgundians sold her to the
English and the latter delivered her
to the French church and the lnquisi-
ton to be burned" Shaw says it is
useless to reply to French criticism.
because the critics only answer is.

Australian Labor
HOSTS Red Emblem
In Lenin's Honor
CBy The Federated Press)

SYDNEY, N. S. W., April 7.-All
sections of the labor movement thru
out Australia passed motions 81
coincidence at the death Of Lenin. AT
the union nails the led flag was at
half mast.
The Labor Council Of New South
Wales carried the following motion:
eve knew of his strenuous fight
against the entire force Of capital
ism thruout the world, notwithstard-
ing the orprobrium and calumny
launched against him since 1917. lie
vigorously maintained the working
class state. which in itself is a bea-
con light to all the workers of the
world"
The Australian Workers Union,
the largest industrial union in Aus
tralia, while in annual conference at
Brisbane declared: "This convention
herewith places on record its pro-
found regret at the death of Nicolai
Lenin, president Of the peoples CON-
missars, and its high appreciation
of the genius, self-sacrifice, and un-
renting labors Of this true COM
rade Of the workers in the cause Of
the working class movement"
The Melbourne Trades and Labor
Council declares: "This council
places on record its appreciation of
his great work and Self-sacrihce or

obtaining for them their emancipa-
ton from czardom and oppression
and winning for them rhe right OF

BIG LOCOMOTIVE
CONCERN HELP
TAKE WAGE CUT
Company Makes Many
Millions Profits
By LELAND oLDs

Federated Press Industrial Editor
Report that employees of the Amer
lean Locomotive Co. have accepted a
wage cut of from per cent to 10 per
cent comes right on the heels of the
annual report of the company for
1923 announcing the largest profits in
its history. This bears out the pre-
diction of The Federated Press on
Jan. 10 and shows that the railroad
industry is running true to form.
Workers in the metal trades especial
ly associated with the manufacture
and repair Of railroad equipment are
faced with conspiracy to reduce
their wages and American Locomo-
tive represents the first breach in
their ranks.
Accommodating Employees.
Employees Of the Brooks plant Of
the company at Dunkirk, N. Y, ac-
cording to the report, accepted the
reduction to give the company a bet
ter chance to obtain orders. AS a
result of the agreement orders for
25 engines for the Union Pacific and
"a for the Louisville & Nashville will
be assigned to the Brooks plant.
This shows how the threat of cur
tailed orders and unemployment has
been used by the railroad industry to
coerce workers into starting the
downward course of wages in the
metal industries. Railroads in the east
have laid off tens of thousands Of
shopmen. They have curtailed their
purchases of equipment to such an
extent that the locomotive companies
have been forced to reduce their
forces to about one-third of nor0al.
Held Wages Responsible.
They have openly held the wages
of machinists, boilermakers, ETC., re-
sponsible for this situation. AS quot
ed from the Wall Street Journal by
The Federated Press in January:
"Hesitation in railroad buying Of
cars and locomotives appears attribu-
table chiefly to the price factor.
Equipment men cannot see lower
prices for their product in the imme-
date future. They point out that
wages constitute the principal cost
factor in the equipment industry and
the possibility of any saving being
accomplished on this account is con-
sidered extremely remote"
The annual report of American Lo-
comotive shows that this charge of
high wages as responsible for the re-
duction in operations is absolutely
false. By cutting exorbitant profits
the company could have secured three
times the saving actually made thru
the 10 per cent reduction of wages
without reducing the return to COM
mon stockholders below 10 per cent.
American Locomotive in 1928 pro-
duced $9O,0O0,00O worth of product
at a wage cost of not more than $780,
100000. 1t has in its treasury over
$50, 900, 900 in undivided profits and
reserves enough to pay full years
wages at last years rates.
