receiving the undivided support of
Indian leaders, they have urged the
White voters to awake to what they
assert is real and vital danger
from attempted Indian domination of
government in Southeastern Alaska.
The men making an issue OF the
question are: J. H. Davies, Senator

there are six additional candidates

 The united front" is a simple device by which the Communists enter into every protesting movement, join with every "grouch" and identify them selves with every minority.
 The executive committee of the Workers Party defined the united front" policy in a communication to the Minnesota reds on March 27, 1924. .+ * we associate ourselves with other groups of workers" said the ex- ecutive committee, ''in struggles over immediate questions affecting the workers lives. Our purpose i'll thus fighting with the workers is to help them win whatever can be won through such struggles But this is not our only purpose We have as our prlnc1- pal aim in the united front, to win the masses of the workers for the struggle against capitalism and for the prole- tarian revolution, soviets and the die tatorship of the proletarlat. we know that in the process of the strug gles against capitalists over immediate questions, there will arise those cir cunstances which will make 1t possible for us to point to the need of a strug gle against the whole system of capital ism and to the soviets and the prole-' tarian dictatorship as the means of ex- pressing the workers power

TAXI CHAUFFEURS' STRIKE WINS FOR THEM 40 PER
 CENT. GROSS RECEIPTS

A strike of New York taxi cfauf- feurs has won for them 40 per cent of the gross receipts of the industry" Employees of the Mogul Checker Cab Corporation demanded wage increase The management said no and the driv- CTS quit.
