the gentlemen favored with this pleas
ant excursion. The British delegates
accorded them a respectful hearing
while they consumed an hour and a
half reading their pamphlets on labor
banking and Investments, the B. G. O.
plan and workers education Of the
inocuous type. They seemed blissfully
ignorant of the significance OF the
issues of the congress and the spirit
of international solidarity there dis
played.
What the British trade union move
ment thinks Of the idea of class col
laboration is forcefully embodied in
the statement on trade union aims"
which was adopted by a large ma
jority.
"THIS congress declares that the
= trade union movement must or
ganize to prepare the trade unions in
conjunction with the party of the
workers to struggle for the overthrow
Of capitalism.
"At the same time congress warns
the workers against all attempts to
introduce capitalist schemes of CO.
partnership which in the past have
failed to give the workers any posi-
tive rights, but instead, have usually
served as letters retarding the for
ward movements.
Congress further considers that
strong, well-organized shop commit
tees are indispensable weapons in the
struggle to force the capitalist to re-
linquish their grip on industry, and,
therefore, pledges itself to do all in
its power to develop and strengthen
workshop organization"
THO unemployment in Britain is
= steadily growing worse-the off,
cial register showing 100000 and
the actual figures being something
like 2000,O00-the congress failed to
respond to the plea of Harry Pollitt
to adopt a strong program of demands
on the government for relief. He en-
phasized these points; nationwide

ed; to cement bonds between unem.
ployed and employed workers so that
they would fight better together in

Except for this, the discussion on un-

THERE is no question but that the
i British workers are in favor Of
"amalgamation" but they still regard
the one big union as yet in the realm
of theory. Resolutions both for and
against it were voted down The dis
cussion revealed that such industrial
unions as the General Workers Union
were regarded by many trade union
lists as trying to gobble up other

The British Trade Union Congress at Scarborough

U. G. settles such matters outside by
inter-union conference and uses It's
convention for more weighty matters.
The amount of territory covered IN
the five days session and the bust
ness-like purpose Of the delegates was
very noteworthy.
TN the first two days of the conven-
ton when Clynes, Thomas and
Cramp all opposed the immediate
granting of more power to the general
council and the matter was referred
back to be settled by special con-
ference of union executives, there was
a feeling of disappointment on the
part of the rank and file left wing
ers. Purcell, Hicks and other pro-
gressives on the G. G. had been ex-
pected to take the floor in this fight,
but they had remained silent. How
ever, as the convention progressed
and one radical resolution after an
other was adopted, it became evident
that the reactionaries had no ground
for satisfaction at the general tenor
of the conference. The delegates ap-
parently had felt that the G.. G. had
sufficient power already to handle any
direct attack on working class stan
dards and that if more was needed,
it would be quickly forthcoming thru
meeting of the executives, as in the
case of RED Friday last July. s. !,
Whatever criticism may be directed
at the average British trade unionist
for not seeing very far ahead Of his
nose Tin this respect he is like his
brother worker in every other land
except Soviet Russia, it is Of some
moment that he is willing to meet
realities when they are thrust in his
face and deal with them in a radical
way without fear of being dubbed a
Bolshevik. He is fortunate in having
leaders here and there who seem will
ing to go as far and perhaps take a
chance on going bit farther than the
rank and file. The majority OF the
workers are not particularly interest
ed in cataclysmic revolution-that is
not the issue just now-but when mat
ters come to a show down, they will
not allow a deluge of epithets from
the capitalist press croeven etheS' sc0lds

THE CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE

Arthur j. Strawson, field
3aCretary for the National Tu-
bcrculosis Association who last
week closed a series of confey-
ences with the various chair
men of the Tubelsulosis Christ
mas Seal Sale, emphasizes
most interestingly the import
ance of work done by the Nat
ional tuberculosis Association
Mr.. Strawson said: "The Nat
io1 hl tuberculosis Association
Goes fc,- the states only those
things which they cannot do
for themselves. One of these
things is to protect the public
against fake cures. These
cures victimize thousands of
unfortunate sufferers with tu-
berculosis and toll Them away
from the only treatment which
is of any value, fresh air, nour-
iShing food and sunshine. With
the best we can do $15,000,00O

cular victims. Through an ar
rangement made by the Nat
ional tuberculosis Association
to the Advertising Clubs of the
World, whose slogan is truth
and service, fake cures are pre-
vented from running their ads
in reputable publications.
"The National tuberculosis
Asso'ri carries on research for
a cure of tuberculosis and ev-
cry child who buys a cents
worth of Christmas Seals is
putting in a mite to help find
the remedy which seems Just
around the corner. Many neg
ative finds prove valuable. For
example: Recently chaulmoo-
ara oil was heralded as the
much needed remedy, but with
in a short time was investigated
a- the instance of the National
Association and proved that it
haG no value. This cost the
Association the small sum of
81 800, but saved large ap-
preparation beirg made from
the Public Health Service pre-
venting the flooding of the
country with chaulmooga oil
cures and conserving the sup
ply of oil for the lepe-s, in the
treatment of which it is real
ly valuable.
"The National Association
has served Arkansas very di-
rectly in assisting with its SAN
itorium plans. This is a very
special line of service which no
state could Individually afford,
as it involves the work of an
architect skilled in sanitorium
construction and familiar with
the principals of sanitorium adj

large scale for all the states to

Inc Greek government has issued

vlded the Bulgars make no further at
tem1ts to attack them, according to
dispatch from Athens. The troops,
however, will hold the positions they
now occupy until Bulgaria has replied
to the Greek note. The government
announces its determination to adhere
to the terms OF the note.
The latest advices received from
Sofia say that the Greeks advanced
rapidly and that their main body pene-
trated ten miles into Bulgarian terri
tory. The advance was prepared for
Dy heavy artillery fire and airplane

ESTATE TAX REPEAL
URGED BY GOVERNORS
Tell House Body States Are
Entitled to ReUenue From
DUN Estates.

Washington.-Repeal Of the federal
estate tax was urged by the governors
of six states, representatives of thir-
teen others and speakers for the
American Bankers association and
the National Committee on Inheri-
lance Taxation at a hearing before
the house committee on ways and
means.
The governors chief argument was
that the state was entitled to the rev.
enue from its own estates. Other ar
guments advanced by them can be
summarized in the address of Fred
eric A. Delano, speaking for the Ma
tiOnal Committee on Inheritance Tax
alton. Mr.. Delano advocated the fol-
lowing ten points:
/. Making inheritance taxes SUBJ
Stantially uniform throughout the
Cnited States.
2. Making inheritance tax rates
stable.
8, Making inheritance tax rates
moderate.
ing session OF congress repeating the
federal estate tax. This repeal to
take effect in six years.
8. Immediate downward revision II
the rate structure Of the federal es-
tate tax, with the maximum rate of
Is per cent
6. Extension of the credit provision
of the present law so as to allow a
credit of all inheritance taxes paid
to the several states up to 80 per cent
OF the feGera, tax.
z. Abolition of the gift tax.
8. Substitution by the states of an
estate tax law in place of the success
sion tax laws now generally employed
g. Abandonment of the multiplicity
of taxation of the same property.
10. The taxation of intangible per-
sonal property only in the state of
dOmicile OF the decedent.
Mr.. Delano favored delaying the
taking effect of repeal of the fed
eral estate tax for six years for
fear that the immediate repeal might
retard the movement for uniformity,
which. he said was growing. and
might increase the present confusion
between the states. He also said that
most states, on account of the ses-
sions of their legislatures, COULD not
consider Changes until 1927, and that
the proverDial slowness of legislative
bodies would have to be considered
too.
