GERMAN fascist
PLANNING N { W
DEMONSTRATION
Communists Alone Can
Cope With Menace

BERLIN, May IA The defeat Of
Poincare has heartened the German
monarchists and they are planning
new demonstrations in the large
cities. The only force to combat the
monarchist organizations are the Com
munists. The social-democrats have
completely bowed the knee in submits
sion to the ruling class.
The workers are leaving the social
list party in masses. The surprising
gains made by the Communists in the
recent elections have enthused the ex-
plotted workers greatly.
The Fascist have not gotten away
scot free from their attacks on the
workers of Halle last Sunday. Since
then skirmishes have taken place be-
tween Red and White groups. The
striking miners in the Ruhr demand
the ownership and control Of the
mines by the workers.
In face of the rising Communist
threat to the bourgeoisie, the reac-
tionaries are seeking election allianc-
es to put the Dawes plan into imme-
diate operation. But tho bankers like
to save civilization, provided they can
make profit out of their altruistic la
bors they are not so anxious to drop
their millions into the abyss which is
yawning before European capitalism
at the present time.

.SUPT. ANDREW
/. Goes TO TRIAL
BEFORE BOARD
Teacher Union Demands
Cars Ousting

The Chicago Teachers Federation
members were eagerly waiting yes
terday afternoon to hear what action
the board of education would take in
its session on the charges preferred
against superintendent William Nc
Andrew. The case was due to come
before the board meeting yesterday.
1t is understood that the teachers
had sent in their lawyers opinion to
the board on the matter Of the Ele-
mentary Teachers Councils. The
teachers attorneys report maintains
that the question of holding teachers
councils in school hours has already
been finally settled, in accordance
with the rules and bylaws Of the
councils and with the last decision
of the superintendent.
The superintendent supporters are
expected to send in report on the
meetings of the Elementary Councils
also, but whether they will take the
stand the teachers attorney has, is
doubtful.
Miss Margaret Haley, business
agent for the Teachers Federation, is
determined to carry on the fight
against McAndrew and his illegal
methods until the superintendent is
out. She is insisting that the charges
she made against McAndrew on April
Goth be acted on at once by the Board
of Education.

Union Whips Alaska
Packers, Friends OF
Herbert Hoover

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1.-THE
Alaska Packers Association has given
in at last to the Alaska Fishermen's
union. Brought to terms by their
failure to recruit non-union crews for
the salmon season, the packers have
signed compromise agreement effec-
tive for three years, granting 1sc a
fish over the 1923 scale. The men
had asked for a 1c increase, and the
packers for 1c decrease. Union con-
ditions and recognition are to be in
force in all canneries in Alaska under
the control Of the association. The
compromise was offered by the union.

sIgman Exposes Real Issue.
Sigman's brand OF Industrial un-
ionism. however, is quite a harmless
one that does not in any way threat
en- the power Of the officialdom.
In the course OF his statement, Sig
man himself exposed the real issue
involved in his attack upon the mill
tants in the International. The un-
ion. he declared. is only an economic
organization which cannot consider
political questions. The so-called left
wing groups are attempting to make
the union adopt their political views.
For that reason there is no room for
them in the International.
This statement was the last bit OF
proof needed in the evidence which
has been piling up during the debates
showing the falseness Of the Official
allegations that questions OF principle
were not involved In the contesting

those crimes and so gross was the
language necessary to describe them
that all the women in the audience
were requested to leave the room
while the former judge was recount
ing the acts of those who were osten-
sibly organized to protect the purity
of American womanhood.

Political Persecution.
Immense Ku Klux parades were

woe unto the negro who did not vote
as the local Khan official wanted him
to. 1t was not an uncommon penalty
for Drawing Khan wrath for a man to
be castrated or banished or have both
penalties inflicted for some alleged
moral lapse. The truth is that ninety
nine per cent of the outrages com
nfitted by the Khan against persons
were for political or commercial
reasons.

this reason, a %signat0ry to the treaty on
behalf Of Canada. my Ministers do not
feel that they are in d position TO recon
mend to Parliament the approval OF the
Peace Treaty with Turkey and the con-
vantions thereto" In these words the
Governor General in a message address
ed to the Secretary of State for the Colo
MES on March Oath 1924, defined the at
ti,ude Of the King Government toward
the Lausanne Treaty. The telegram is
the last Of a series between the Imperial
and Canadian Govt's. going back to Oct.
9th 1922 and tabled in the House by the
Premier today. The telegram adds.
Without the approval of Parliament
they feel they are not warranted
in signifying concurrence in r%atltica-
ton of the treaty and the conventions.
With respect to ratification. however,
they will not take exception to such
course as his Majesty's Govt. may deem
il advisable to recommend. When the
papers were tabled Mr.. Meighen asked
whether the correspondence was COM
pIete, and if it was not complete, which
Govt. took responsibility for the omis-
sions. The Premier replied that the
Govt. had asked that all correspondence
should be made public. The Imperial
Govt. had objected to some of it being
brought down, What had been tabled
was all that the two Govt's. hal agreed
upon. The correspondence opens with a
message from the Duke of Devonshire
at that time Secretary for the Colonies

that invitations had been sent by the

~sonally act as chief British PIenlpo-
tertiary and the Dominion Governments
would be kept informed from time 10
time on the general lines Of policy on
which the British PIeripotentiries propo-
sed to proceed. IN reply. the Governor
General, Oh behalf of the Dominion Gov
erI ment, acknowledged receipt of tele-
gram informing our government Of in
VitatiOnS to the Lausanne Conference
which have been sent to the &c yern-
me ITS Of other cQnntrieS'. The DOmin-
ion Government had not taken exception
to the conclusion of a treaty to end the
war in the Near. East, but we deem it
advisable to avail ourselves of the ear
Hest opportunity to inform His Majesty's
Government that. in our opinion, the eX-
tent to which Canada may be held to be
bound by the proceedings of the confer
ence. or by the provisions of any treaty,
or any instrument arising out the same,
was necessarily a matter for the Parlia-
ment Of Carada to decide. and that the
rights and powers of our Parliament IN
these particulars must not be held to be
affected by implication. or otherwise, IL
virtue of the information with which our
Government may be supplied" On Nov
ember 10Th 1922 the Duke of Devonshire
cabled that it was the most earnest de-
sire that you should be kept fully inform
ed of the developments of confer
ences and we shall endpavor to send
you full details. Nine days later
the Governor-G General replied that the
purport Of his previous message (Oct-
tober 31st) had not been correctly in
terpreted. Our Government. " he add
ed, has not expressed a desire to have
any treaty with Turkey, which may re-
suit from the conference, submitted to
the Canadian Parliament for approval
before His Majesty's Government is adj
vised to be understood as preferring any
such request. My message was intended
to make clear that we had no exception
to take to Canada not being invited o
be represented at the conference. but in.
asmuch as we had been informed that we
would be invited to sign the treaty and
any separate instrument regulating the
status of the Straits, we wished to make
it perfectly clear, that iE our opinion.
the extent to which Canada may be held
to be bound by the proceedings of the
conference. or by the provisions of any
treaty. or other instrument arising out
OF the same, was necessarily a matter
for the Parliament of Canada to decide.
We deem it of the utmost importance
that there should be no misunderstanding
as TO our position with respect to Canada's
obligation in this and kindred matters.

of Devonshire remarked that IL was in

treaty resulting from the LauSanTe Con-
ference, would, o1c0urse. replace the
treaty of SevereS and until 1t comes I'M
