LEADS in fight
ON LABOR PARTY
Dropping of Attuck on
Communist Editor Hit

Especial TO Ths Daily Nfcr9rsfy -
LONDON, October 6.-Creaf
Britain Is now face 20 face
squareiy with the question Of
whether the Macdonald cabinet
Is to continue In Office. -
Sir Robert Horne, a tory, has
placed before the House OF
Commons a motion to eensure
the Labor cabinet on the
ground that It Quashed q cr3A
minal Indictment against the
editor Of the official organ OF
the Communist Party Of Great
Britain, the Workers Weekly"
Macdonald IN Weak Defense.
Sir Horne declared that this action
by the laborttos was due to pressure
from the extremists. The attorney.
general who handled the case is being
charged with ineficiency.
So far Macdonald has not made a
vigorous defense. The labon premier
said: III administration OF law be-
comes the subject Of political expedi-
ency. then justice will disappear
Whether he will demand the dissoIu-
ton of parliament upon being defeat
ed on the issue. is still a question.
Macdonald is not very anxious to 60
before the country on an issue that
would bring out the class alignments
so SHARPLY aud in which the Commune
lists fare so prominently
Situation Is Complicated.
The situation is further complicated
by new factor. Usually it is only
matter of formality for the king to as
sent to a dissolution request. The
king. as the ruber stamp of the biggest
industrial and financial interests, is
now intimating that he will reject
such a request If It comes from the
cabinet.
These capitalist groups would rath-
er see Stanley Baldwin, the prominent
steel manufacturer, again take his
place at the head OF conservative
cabinet than throw the country int
sharp election struggle.
Expect Bitter Debate.
The debate is expected to be q very
bitter one. Communism win be ths
central issue. The liberals and tories
will make it so, tho Mcdonald win
do all in his power to show his an
nifty to the Communist worktnguznn.
In order to prove his enmity to the
Communists and to make himself m
vulnerable from such sharp class crit.
cism and disspproval by tho cspftatist
parties, Mr.. Mcdonald Is even plan
ming to Outright the Lloyd George
Baldwin alliance in their Tight against
the Communists. The premier is prD-
posing to expel every Communist who
is member Of the labor party.
There is much bitterness in the de-
bate because Of the amendment Of the
liberals to appoint special commit
tee to investigate the entire matter
Of the Workers Weekly indictment.
Mcdonald has branded the liberal pro-
posal as a piece of medieval crooked
ness"

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-Putting
the Workers Party presidential
electors on the ballot in New
York State with many more
than the required 10000 sigma
lures secured, was just a start
for the New York City party
members.
Six RED NIGHTS have been
arranged, Charles Krumbein,
district organizer, reports to the
DAILY WORKER, with eleven
large open air meetings every
night, at which 10000 pieces Of
Communist literature will be
distributed, and SO speakers will
be rushed into the campaign
every night.
Five thousand people are expected
to march to the main meetings with
banners and red lights.
Each of the six RED NIGHTS will
cover a different section of New York
City. Tomorrow night the Williams
burg section will be covered, with
the main speeches on Grand st.
The Grand st. meetings will be
followed by meetings in Harlem

progressive member who is not in
hramony with the policy Of the Of
ficialdom who act in concert with the
bosses and carry out their desires.
When interviewed Mcdonald stated
that this matter had been pending for
some two years and arose over a mis-
take in the secretary of the local of
which Mcdonald is a member. AS
Mcdonald found it impossible to at
tend the meeting at that time he
wrote the secretary asking how much
he owed for dues and assessments and
on being informed sent a check for
the amount due. Some months later
some of the gum shoe sleuths of Far
ring ton checked up the books of the
local and found the secretary had
failed to charge Mcdonald with some
two dollars for the alleged Herrin as
sessment. This money was supposed
to be used for the Herrin miners, but
in reality was used to buy votes for
Harrington in the miners election.
History of Case.
When the secretary discovered he
had made mistake he notified Nc
Donald and received the amount due
for this alleged Herrin assessment.
Some seven months later harrington
notified the members of this local to
drop Mcdonald from membership be-
cause of the mistake of the secretary
which the local as promptly refused
to do. The matter rested until eleven
months later when again Harrington
notified the local to have representa-
tives appear before the district board
to show case why their charter should
not be revoked for failure to expel
Mcdonald.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
miners constitution does not give
either Harrington or his board the
power to revoke charters he holds
this over their heads at every oppor-
tunity and especially when they go
out on strike against the wishes Of the
bosses who Harrington serves.
The local then sent representatives
to indianapolis at the invitation OF
vice-president Murray, who promised
them a hearing before the charter
would be revoked. When they reach
ed there they were told they must
obey the mandate of Harrington and
expel Mcdonald before their case
could be heard At first he promised
to give them a hearing later, but re.
versed himself at Farrington's sug
gestion and stated that the time for
appeal had passed. When the com
mittee reported the results Of their
conference with Murray a motion was
made and passed refusing to expel
Mcdonald at the bequest of Earring.

COUNTERFEITERS' DEN
FOUND In PHOENIX ?

Sixty counterfeit ten dollar bills OF
the new Chicago Federal Reserve
bank, found on the person of Pat Car
roll, alias J. 3. Ross, arrested in Den
yer with James Z. Reynolds, James A.
Woodruff and Ona Woodruff, upon re-
quest Of Sheriff Jerry Sullivan for
alleged burglaries of three Phoenix
oil companies, leads to the belief that
Ross was connected with the counter
feiting syndicate of Chicago.
These counterfeit bills have been
flooding the west, according to Chief
Deputy Sheriff H. C. Parsons, who
recently returned from Denver after
the quartet had been turned over to
the Kansas authorities for alleged
bank burglaries. Although none Of
the bills are believed to have been
passed in Phoenix, the sheriff's office
has reason to believe that the dies OF
the bill were brought to Phoenix and
the bills found on Ross made in Ari-
zona.
The history of the crime, which
puzzled government secret service
agents, according to information re-
ceived by Sheriff Sullivan and Par
sons was revealed through con-
fession made by Edward THOMPSON
to the Chicago police, whom the Cook
county, Illinois authorities say, offer
ed to deliver a big cargo of pre-Nar
whiskey to big syndicate for S20,-
O0O. He delivered the liquor, and al
though it was moonshine, they ac-
cepted it.
The syndicate, according to infer

previous. Moreover, exports from the
United States during 1928 were the
largest on record. Imports into Eng
land, France, Belgium and Germany
also showed a decrease to an amount
of 75O million pounds. The 1928 i'm
ports of. these European countries
showed a decrease of approximately
so per cent compared with 1922.
Wool prices in London during De-
cember, 1923, were higher (scoured
basis) than those prevailing for the
same month one year previous. Fine
wools were selling slightly higher,
while medium wools sold from &c to
10c per pound higher.
Indications point toward consider
ably lower quantities Of world carry
over stocks. Enormous supplies held
by the British-Australia Wool Real
ization association decreased from
913,215 bales on January l, 1923, to
2C9,614 bales on January /, 1924. Re
ports from South America and AUS
tralia indicate that stocks on hand
! were very small. Stocks in the Unit
ed States on January /, 1924, were
the lowest reported since 1917.
On the supply side, the wool situa-
tion is distinctly favorable for produc-
ers. The price of wool has stimulat-
erd production in this country during
the past year and it appears that,
with present tariff rates, further in
crease in production could be profi-
tably made.

tions. Furthermore, while lamb con-
sumers as a class are usually able to
nav more for their meats than those
who depend mostly on beef and pork
there is a limit to the price when
even they will pay for this delicacy.
The demand for wool makes part
of the composite demand for sheep
and lambs. The future trend IN the
sheep industry will be partly the re-
suit of changes in the price of wool.
Future development in lamb and NUT
ton production will be affected by the
trend in wool prices, and no long time
outlook can ignore this side OF the
question.
Since the United States produces
only 10 per cent Of the worlds total
production and we consume 70 per
cent Of the total world supply, the
conditions and the activity of foreign
markets have a decided influence up
on domestic conditions.

United States was so million pounds
less than the 19O9-1912 yearly aver
age, but slightly greater than in the
preceding year. The worlds wool
production decreased about 500 mil
lion pounds since 1909-1913, which IS
about equal the yearly requirements
of the United States. The worlds
production for 1928 was about Sc mil
lion pounds below that of 1922.
Thus it will be seen that the I'M
mediate trend of wool production is
downward. Adyices from the princi-
pal wool producing countries other
than the United States indicate that
production in 1924 will not equal the
1923 clip. In no case is there any
intimation of a substantial increase
in production for 1924. a slight in
crease in the United States may be
expected in view of the 81 per cent
increase in numbers of sheep on farms
on January 1, 1924.

the corresponding period one year
