Paris, March 9th. The tWenty-fOur
hours that have passed since the nVer
sations between M. Herriot and Mr.. Aus,
ten Chamberlain on the subject Of s3cur-
ity, have not brought any important adj
ditiOn to what was already been made
public on the subjects discussed. The
British side, apparently moved by the &c.
tails given out by the French press and
public this morning, gave out some in
timatiOns for the benefit of the British
press, which for the most part are con
firmatOry of the French version. One
new interesting point disclosed is that
when M. Herriot insisted that the pro.
posed five or seven power pact, if formed
should not diminish the period of allie |
occupation of the RhineIand and that it
should respect article "A of the League
Covenant. whereby infracJions ri
the demilitarizatiOn of the Rim
land constitute an aggression l.
gainSt the SignatOrl2s of the treaty,
Mr.. Austen Chamberlain was able to re-
assure NJ. Herriot explaining that Herr
St"esemann, German Foreign Secretary,
in response to the British inquiry had de
ciared, in making his security pact pro-
posal, that he did not expect a reduction
In the periods Of occupation. UndOubted-
ly the question OF Germany,S fr0atlerS IS
the main stumbling block M. Herriet
said that France would respec the terms

security at POIandS expense was unthink-
able to French opinion, which was always
opposed to giving Germany an inch In the
direction of revision of the treaty of Yer
s%aiIles, for fear she would take all. Pres
ident Doumergue is understood to have
expressed the same idea to Mr.. Cnlm.

CLEVELAND, Ohio. April 27.-The
streetcar men who were bamboozled
into calling off their strike last year
in order not to Inconvenience" the
republican convention, are tasting the
fruits.
When it developed that the COM
pany was not going to keep their
promise and would offer them only a
five cent raise, they went to law" in
the capitalist courts and the case was
taken to the Ohio supreme court.
Now the company issues a warning
that if they do not drop the litigation,
the company will declare an open
shop war and deal with the men only
"as individuals"
The case looks bad for the workers
either way, for, so declares the COM
pany, if the supreme court decides in
favor of the company it will at once
institute fight for the open shop on
the basis of the decision.

The BARRIERS of Chicago at their

in the Ashland Auditorium gave their

President Shaughnessy who had been
summoned here by them to handle
the aroused membership a hostile re-

STORM VICTIMS
GET LITTLE AID
FROM RED CROSS

Especial to The Daily WORKER,

W. FRANKFORT, Ill, April IL
Workers relief has begun in the
storm district. The International
Workers Aid is represented by Rose
White, miner Of Sesser. H., assist
ed by James McCollom. F. @. Mason
and Mike Rukavina of West Frank
fort, who compose the committee.
There is much dissatisfaction in the
cyclone zone with the manner in
which the Red Cross is conducting its
relief work. There is talk hereabout
of discrimination and there is much
wondering where the $4,000 900 in
contributions is finding a resting
place since most of the relief Is in
the form OF clothing and necessities
that have also been donated and since
living quarters. tents, cots, etc, are
/ being supplied by state and govern
ment authorities.
Red Cross Makes Money.
1t is reported also that assessments
collected from the miners Of local
local unions are being sent to district
headquarters where they are turned
over 20 the Red Cross.
Needless to say, conditions in the
storm area are very bad. Even the
coal sections hereabout not affected
by the storm are Witnessing almost
as much suffering on the part Of
workers and their families due TO the

hausted. Miners in and out Of the

BY LILLIAN r. 5oRGESoN.
An investigation has been carried
on because Of a noticed tendency on
the part Of many of the workers to
believe that Chicago was a favored
spot Of capitalism in the respect that
it harbored no child labor.
The workers have been reading of
the beet-fields of Michigan, Of the cot
ton fields Of the south, of the wollen
mills of New England, of the truck
farming in Maryland, of the textile
mills of Georgia, of the mines of
Pennsylvania, and have been feeling,
