LONDON, Nov. 6. - The complete
victory of the rebel Moorish forces
under Abdel Krim against the power
OF Spain is causing considerable worry
to the imperiaIist governments of both
England and France.
To Spain had been entrusted the
task of "pacification" in the north
ern part of Africa task which it
has conscieniously tried to fulfill by
force Of arms.
Now that Spain has been driven
from North Africa, both France and
England are Watching each other

that her power on the African con-

that he self-constituted guardianship
over the straits Of Gibraltar may be

The expressed determination Of the
Moors to prevent foreign interven.

considerably for the imperiaIists.

most every field in which capitalism
has found a basis for large scale ex.

The Ford income is also a byword.
1T represents the enormous private
profits which can be derived from
highly speeded mass production in
which the workers becomes nothing
but cog in the wheel.
But it is impossible to go into the
history of each income. These super.

HUGHES CHARGED
With SMUGGLING
ANTI-.REDS in
May Not Find Many
"Green Peasants" Here
tHy The Federated Press)


NEW YORK CITY, Nov. Co.
Charges that the U. S. state
department and American con-
sulate in Paris assisted him in
falslfying his application for
visa for entrance into this coun-
try have been made by AIexei
M. MoshkWinow, who now an
nounces thru the New York
Evening Graphic that he is
really here to organize anti
Soviet activities.
Moskwinow gave Federated
Press an interview months ago
in which he told frankly that he
represented what he called the
Screen Peasants" movement of
Russia.
He alleges that the American gov
eminent officials connived with him
to enable him to come to this coun-
try and form the All-Russian Peasants
Association, S24 e. 14th St., New
York, for organizing an anti-Soviet
movement to overthrow the existing
regime in Russia.
An Adventurer.
Evan D. Young, named by Mosk-
winow as the man in the division Of
European affairs in the U. s. state
department that he saw on June 4,
1924, admits by wire from Washing
ton that he talked to the Russian and
said he met him first in Riga, Russia,
where he was singing as Alfred Frau
enstein, and where he was known as
an "adventurer. Young said that
Moskwinow was the only one Of four
men who in April cabled from Paris
about visas. He says he saw Mosk-
winow in Washington when Secretary
Hughes would not and that Mosk-
winow claimed then to represent 40
per cent of Russian peasants (S0.O0O.-
600 peopie) until closely questioned.
Then he said his group was about
10000 strong and aimed to overthrow
the present Russian government with
out foreign Intervention. Young says
he wrote a note to Hughes to deny
the others visas.

Canadian Bankers
Squeeze Out Small
Fry in Money Trust

VANCOUVER, B. c., Nov. 6.-Cana-
dian financial interests are concentrat.
ing their wealth. During the past
three years the banking interests of
Canada have undergone a process of
amalgamation that resulted in the
gradual elimination Of the small fin.
ancier class and the establishment of
a money trust in the dominion.
Here are some Of the highlights in
Canadian finance during the period
mentioned: Merging Of the Merchants
bank with Bank Of Montreal (subsid.
larry Of the Canadian Pacific railway;
failure Of the Home Bank Of Canada be-
cause 1t would not join the Bankers
union; amalgamation of the Bank OF
Hamilton and the Bank Of Commerce;
union of the Bank of Hochelga and the
Bank Rationale of Quebec, and in Sep
TENDER the absorption of the Sterling
banks of Ontario by the Standard
Bank.
Canadian banks now act as mere
collection agencies for the eastern fin
ancial centers. No credit of any inn
portance is extended to western bust.
ness enterprises. Advances on agri-
culture are absolutely nil. In the fruit
country of British Columbia the banks
will not advance cent on crop re.
turns and in some cases the govern
ment has taken first mortgages on
fruit crops to secure payment of water
and land taxes.

BANKERS SCHEME
TO MAKE OWNERS
OF RAIL WORKERS
Must Starve for Five
Years, That's All

WASHINGTON From the Bank
ers' Railway Bulletin, a propaganda
service, comes a new red herring to be
dragged across the trail of public
ownership and democratic manage
ment of the railroads. The new
scheme is simple--let all the railroad
workers save 20 per cent of their
wages for five successive years, and
plant those savings in railroad securi-
ties. That would buy the railroads,
says the propagandist of the Bankers
Railway Bulletin, and sit ought to
put an end to wage controversies and
strikes; it ought to end the agitation
for government ownership on the part
Of the employees"
VIII End Strikes Too.
But that is not all: "If successful
it might provide precedent in quiet
ing the complaints one hears against
the present organization of industry
without recourse to socialism or 9TH
er economic and political heresies-
a precedent which might, possibly
save this country from the state at
which several European countries
have arrived and to which many 9TH
ers ARE headed"
1t goes into argument to show that
while the Plumb plan would not pro-
vide penalties for ineficiency, the
magic Of stock ownership in private
railroad corporation would make ev-
cry man efficient. All he needs do is
save up 20 per cent of his wages each
year, and hand them over to the com
nany for shares in its future.
Nothing in the article explains how
railroad worker can save so much
from wages fixed by the rail labor
board.

Special Daily Worker Correspondent.
BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 6--Local 1, Of
Chelsea, Mass, has seeded from the
Amalgamated Shoe Workers Of Ameri
ca, and has applied for charter in
the Boot and Shoe Workers Union.
1t is rumored that the latter organiza-
ton paid heavily for the change that
took place in the local
Milltants Explain.
The DAILY WORKER correspond
ent interviewed the union officials and
a number of active members. They
all told of the great handicaps they
had been under since the Amalgamat-
ed came to Chelsea. If any shops
close down or move out of Chelsea, as
has been the case recently, the work
ers Of those shops were forced to take
jobs under unspeakably bad conditions
because the locals of the Amalgamated
did not permit them to receive employ
ment in shops under their jurisdiction
They said they could not go to Boston
because the Boot and Shoe controls
that vicinity.

They had a membership Of 800.
Only 400 we're left at the time the To-
cal changed its allegiance. This local
has been conducting strike during
the last two months. The general Of
flee of the Amalgamated did not con-
tribute one cent towards helping win
the strike, tho they have regular
strike fund. If this strike is lost, the
Chelsea union is lost. The militants
OF the Chelsea local foreseeing this,
raised the slogan Of boring from with.

Change Gives New Impetus.
The militants said they would work
real hard for the next months to
get their views across to the Boot and
Shoe Workers so that in May when the
convention takes place they will Sc.
cure for the Brockton district locals
their charters from the Boot and Shoe
Workers Union. And with the Brock
ton militants in the fold a new era
for the shoe workers Of the country
would be on its way.
The arguments were concluded with
the statement that for more than 20
years the militants had fought the
Boot and Shoe Workers Union from

From the County Agent
Pasture Day, Friday, July Is

A tour Of Randolph county to visit
practical pastures demonstrations will
be made on July 18th. Some Of the
best Informed men of the state on
pastures and live stock will appear on
the program.
Cars will assemble on the court
square in Pocahontas at 300 a. m.
There will be free barbecue at
1 100 p. m. on the f.. Dalton farm,
formerly known as the Lewis Dalton
farm, one mile of Dalton, Ark.
This movement is to encourage the
farmers to SOW more permanent pas
lures. The first need of a county
growing live stock is pastures. Any
one who is acquainted with conditions
in Randolph county will readily CON
cede that our live stock has gone down
hin in the last few years.
Then, let's take the first step in i'm
proving our live stock conditions by
encouraging the sowing Of some tame
grass pastures.
Every farmer and business man in
Lawrence and Randolph counties is
cordially invited to come out and take
part in this movement for a better
farm program.

Crops and Loans

The banks of Batesville last week
had published an article from Mr..
Rainwater president of the Arkansas
Bankers Association, of which the fol-
lowing is part:
"You have seen and heard that in
several counties in Mississippi how
they lost all from the "boll weevir'
and how in their poverty and distress
tive years ago. they were forced to
try dairying. They are out of debt
now and bank deposits have trebled.
Other counties have gone in for hay,
cattle, hogs and truck farming with
same results, tomatoes alone netting
growers around two hundred dollars
per acre.
1--WE have, here, just passed the
strawberry season, my own county net
ting every grower over one hundred
dollars per acre. You know what
yours did. Every banker in Arkansas
is fully acquainted with our resources
(truly the "Wonder State"), knows
what is possible in each county, so
what are you going to do about it?
Won't you please join me in an iron
clad resolution, system, or better still
"a "banker's oath, that you: first,
will not, in future, loan n farmer a
dollar unless he agrees and does raise
his food and feed second, that you
will encourage and help him in dairy
ing (three to five cows, or one to
three acres of strawberries or toma-
toes radishes, cabbage or fruit. In
other words, help those that help them
selves-without credit from the slOth-
full one mule man that has a ''hard
luck story" every year and always will.
1t isn't in him. The credit store just
fits him, he never belonged in bank.
These two things alone will save you,
it makes the farmer; it helps every
channel of business. | am going to
live up to il; so are the three other
banks of my town. Many other cOun-
ties are doing it, but what about you!
1t takes just the cooperation (unani-
mously) of banks to let the public
know lin one short year, that we have
changed our system, that henceforth
and forever a man must help himself
if he is to receive help from a bank;
must be worthy! You will do a safe
thing for yourself and a big thing for
him"

Cotton Demonstrations

The county agent has some very in
teresting demonstrations in cotton over
the county. There has been a question
among the farmers as to the kind and
amount Of commercial fertilizer to use.
These demonstrations are for the speci-
fic purpose of finding out what kind
of fertilizer to use by actually trying
the different kinds.
These demonstrations are scattered
over the county so that each type of
soil may be included and that the
farmers can see for themselves the
work that is being done.
Every farmer in the county is urged
to 90 and inspect these demonstrations
or the ones nearest to him and be con-
vinced of the merits of each kind of
fertilizer.
The demonstrations are located on
the following farms: j. L. Bristow,
south of POcahontas; John Canal,
south of Maynard; Ben Choate, at
Maynard: Il. +. Hanion at Biggers ;
Elmer Wheat, near Tenders Store.
The amount of commercial fertilizer
being used in Arkansas has increased
until Dan T. Gray, dean and director
of the college of agriculture, University
Of Arkansas, has arranged n fertilizer
school to be held at Fayetteville for
the farmers and business men on July
10 and II. This is the only school of
its Kind ever to be held in the United
States and every farmer and business
man is urged to attend.
