TatarbOunar Peasant Trial On
FuIaI Allies Wishes.

The Roumanian bourgeoisie wants
to know nothing at all about the
rights OF the Bessarabian population
to self determination, and of its sym.
pathy to the Union OF Socialist So
Wet Republics. This trial, now taking
place in Kishinev together with court
martial, gendarmes, troops Of occupa.
ton, must prove that the bourgeoisie
has no intentions whatsoever to let
Bessarabia slip from its clutches. II
is an open declaration of its unwill.
ingnsss to live at peace with the
Soviet Union, and that It will in the
future direct a policy in the first place
defending the interests of the entente
imperialists
So we see that this trial is clearly
directed against the Soviet Union.
Such are the intentions of the bour.
geois government But, whether the
Roumanian government will after all
remain victorious or not--whether ii
will be victorious in the near future
remains to be seen, against this vic
tory speaks the present econifnic and
political situation of the country,
especially in Besssrabia--the situa-
ton, which the bourgeoisie itself de-
fines as follows:

Bogos, the late minister in Aver

Kishinev, writes in the Roumania for

party, adds: This Is simply prspar-

The Tatarbounar trial is directed
against all the peasantry and all the
minor nationalities, who are carrying
the struggle under similar heavy con-
ditions.
Our feelings of solidarity are with
the accused peasants and the whole
Bessarablan population.

ANDERSON TO
TAKE APPEAL
TO MEMBERS
Scores Johnston at His
Hearing

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.--(F.P.)--J.
r. Anderson, former vee-presIdent
and recent candidate against VIM. ~.
Johnston for the presidency Of the
init. Assn. Of Machinists, announced
on Sept. 80 that he would appeal 70
the membership against the decision
Of the general executive council which
sustained Johnston's order suspend
ing Anderson's membership. The
vote in the council was to /. Ten
per cent Of the active lodges must
second the appeal before it can be
sent to general ballot for decision.
A Pungent Statement.
Appearing before the council at
Washington headquarters in response
to formal summons, Anderson read
to the members pungent statement
In which he denounced the order
against himself as tyrannical and in
defiance Of the will Of the rank and
file Of the machinists.
He reviewed the history Of the I'M
Ions struggle to establish democracy
in its own affairs, and demanded that
any charge against him be tried by
his own fellow-members in his own
lodge, and not by the council which
is his accuser.
Membership Rule Lost.
He declared that the disclosures of
recent months concerning the cleo
tons held in 1920 and 1922 and 1924
have disillusioned the membership as
to their own control of the organiza-
ton.
Johnston's demand that Anderson
apologize to the council he character
lied as "a ridiculous proposal for me
TO recant," and adding insult to
injury"

Mexican Law Bans
Foreign Landholding

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 4.-The pro-
posed law, in accordance with the
constitution, regulating foreign acti-
vities and possessions in Mexico, is
certain to pass the Mexican chamber.
The constitution provides that only
Mexicans by birth or naturalization
may acquire or exploit real property.
The only change effected by the
proposed law will be that members
Of stock companies will be made sub
ject to the same laws as individuals.
One section of the law provides that
all foreigners within one hundred
kilometersi Of the border and fifty
kilometers of the sea must dispose of
their holdings within three years.

PRODUCTION OF
KUSTAR WARE IN
RUSSIA MOUNTS
Makes Up 40 Per Cent
of Entire Industry

MOSCOW, Oct. 4.-(Tass THE
Kustar peasant handicraft industry
production for this year can be esti-
mated at 3,209, 100000 roubles, which
constitutes about 40 per cent OF the
entire industry of the Union. OF this
total sum 2,4O6,OO0,0OO roubles falls
to the share of the peasant kustsr
industry and sO3OOO,000 roubles to
the town kustar industry.
The total number OF people produc-
ing kustar ware reaches 2,130, 900
men.
The kustar industry plays a promi.
nent role in Soviet exports. The ex-
port OF kustsr goods in 1918 was
estimated at 25,374, 600, 900 rouhiea.
1t has considerably fallen since the
period war revolution. Thus, the last
years export Of kustar goods has
been estimated only at 1906, 900. II
has shown again a considerable In
crease during this current year and
according to preliminary estimates
it has risen to 100000 roubles. The
kustar ware is being chiefly exported
to England, Germany, Turkey and
Latvia.
The organization Of the kustar in
dustry on the basis of cooperative
societies constitutes one of the chief
problems of the Soviet government.
Up to the present time. about 20 per
cent of the kustarware workers are
involved in the cooperative move
ment.

teachers who escaped the bullets Of
the Roumanian bourgeoisie during the
rebellion Of September, 1924, are now
brot to the bar
Third Degree Peasants.
The accused underwent an inquiry
AS only the Roumanian police know
how to conduct--lasting a whole year
The material for the indictment
against the accused covers 10000
pages, and the indictment itself, which
displays the understanding" of the
royal commissioner of the courtmar-
tial in matters relating to sociological
and national questions-this indict-
ment covers TOO pages.
Not all the 1000 accused, however
are now on trial. Mercy was taken
on few, and over 200 prisoners, ow.
mig to lack of evidence" we're re-
leased.
There now remains $50 prisoners to
be sentenced. The prisoners are &C
cused of rebellion, robbery, murder
and high treason"
These crimes are mentioned in the
indictment. Officially, the rebels will
be tried, and without doubt, be SEN
fenced. for rebellion against the state
system of the Roumanian bourgeoisie,
for completely, with and aiding for
eign stste"-which, in the present in
stance. is the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics towards which the Bessar-
abian workers and peasants are look
ing for help.
Importance Of Trial.
But he who probes deeper into the
conditions today existing in Rou-
mania, and especially in Bessarabla,
will have to agree with the following
fact, that in reality this trial will de-.
eide the fate of the agrarian reforms,
of the national question and Of the
relations with the Soviet Union.
The ''agrarian reform" has been
completed in Roumania in such a
manner that the Bessarabian peas
ants have been appropriated, and the
land which they had gained as the
fruits Of the victorious October revo-
luton, was taken from them and
given back to the former big landown-
ers. tu
The national question has been so
decided" that the lesser nationalities
have been deprived even of those
rights which they enjoyed during the
czarist regime.
The present trial has been brot
about in order that by means Of a
verdict against the prisoners, the
idea Of an aerarian reform and Of
freedom for the minor nationaIlties
may be radically destroyed. The gov
eminent wishes, by means of this
trial to emphasize the fact that Bes-
sarabia happens to be in the power of
Roumania, and will stay in Rouman-
las power-even tho this be against
the wish Of the population, even tho
Bessarabia was stolen" by the Rou-
manians.

DANCE CRAZE ON
WANE IN PARIS
Living Costs Sober French
Capitals Citizens

PARIS. Feb. 1.-THE dance craze
IL passing In Paris This is clear
from statistics and from the life
OF the city. The spell lasted for
over five years. but II has been on
the wane for several months.
When the armis,ice was signed all
Paris started 10 dance with Joy. The
FIRST outburst OF frolicking was held
in the streets. but the pent-up feel
ings Of those grievous war years
could not be satisfied with one cele-
hration. and so the dance went
merrily ON in cafes, restaurants. ho-
tel corridors. private salons. rooms
rented by clubs in fashionable
houses. public halls. roadhouscs. inns
and everywhere else that would ac-
oommodate shutting human feet
This excessive dancing looked like
a seasonal within. but then came the
American jazz band. In 1918 Ameri-
cans in uniform did their best. and
with much success, TO introduce the
foxtrot and teach the latest steps TO
the French girls, not only in the
cities. but In remote villages turnout
the south and east where they were
on duty. The French quickly caught
the idea, and when the war ended
they were in the proper spirit TO
go in for jazz hole-heartedly.
The popularity Of dancing contin-
ucd almost undated until last sum-
mer. IL was remarked at the fash
ionable resorts that sports enticed
the crowds away from the gay cafes
before and during the tea hours,
and In the evenings the gaming
tables were the main attraction.
But the best check is the so-called
dancing palaces At the end of 1923
there were siS such ''dancings" in
Paris. but at the end OF last year
there were less than 500. This
means that the working classes are
no longer supporting the dance.
In the meantime the semi-fashion-
able clubs. which held their dances
In private homes, have almost COM
pletely disappeared Naturally the
dance still goes merrily on in Paris.
but IL is now chiefly confined to
restaurants-after the dinner hours
and to midnight cafes in the
Montmartre. Dancing for itself alone
Is rapidly reaching its proper level,
which Is a source OF diversion in
the party. but not the party.
Since the summer tourist season
Montmartre has seriously felt the
strain OF the loss of popularity OF
the dance. They did we'll as long
as the season was on. but the slump
came about two months ago. and
business has been very bad. Quite
number OF dancing places had TO
close for lack of patronage, and the
gaiety of the district has consider
ably toned down. In all the places
the dear dancing girls grumble about
the hard winter.
Unquestionably the high cost Of
dancing has been n contributing
factor in the decline OF its popular
ity. Tho increase in living expenses
has hit all classes. and this includes
musicians who have demanded more
pay and tho vicious circle has been
functioning. Within the past few
weeks a great many American jazz
artists have sailed for home.
