in these trades but by an those who
want an insight into the industrial
question. There are certainly no
official trade journals, they are
fighting organs, giving the militant
viewpoint, and carrying instructive
information on the local and the in
ternational situation. In the Metal
Trades Amalgamation Bulletin a
great deal of space is given to the
campaign Of organizing the unor-
ganized electrical industry. William
F. Dunno leads off with a splendidly
written article, "The Unorganized
Electrical Industry" which, in ad-
dition to all the information that il
gives, is highly readable.
''The Progressive Building Trades
Worker" is somewhat larger. II
throws some light on the infamous
Lands award. 1t tells of the COM
, bat of the st. Louis workers against
the one big union of the Master
Builders. There is an interesting
article on the shrinking Of construc-
tion work and the slump in the
building trades. Mike Ross in plain
language cells the workers what
they should know about union and
about the five-day week. The Rus

This meeting has special signif-
canoe because the issue Of Philip

House Committee on Insular Affairs

meeting resolutions will demand that
the American government keep its
original promise to the islanders
and get out.

Workers Party efforts in behalf
Of Philippine freedom have been
warmly appreciated in letters from
the Philippine Federation of Labor
and statements from their official
representatives of the islanders.
Philippine labor has none of the
fear of radical thought that is char
acteristic of the Gompers official
dom. That will be shown again on
May / when the Philippine Fedora
tion of Labor will stage a huge
demonstration for freedom. That In

central Japan. Okayama district
