Irish Free State and
Ulster Preparing for
Boundary Dispute War

DUBLIN, Nov. 27.-The Irish Free
state is tense today, following the
failure of President Cosgrave to come
to any agreement with Premier Bald
win of Great Britain, relative to the
dispute over the Ulster border.
Numerous reports are being circul-
ated, one of them being to the effect
that armed men are being modified
in Ulster to take over the territory
awarded to Ulster under the terms of
the boundary commission.
There are also unconfrmed reports
that the free state is prepared to send
forces to the border.

the court and a number of Scotland

they put the Communists on trial not
for "seditious conspiracy" but have
charged them with "conspiring to pub

Chancellor Luther and his cabinet

after the pacts are signed. The res

price he has to pay in order to OBJ

eminent to play the imperialist game
of Britain that they sold their cabi-
net to the opposition parties in order
to obtain their support. This brazen
political trading has aroused the
masses and efforts will be made by
the Communists to prevent the crea-

Resent Fixing of MOsul
Boundary Line Z

C0NSTANTlNoPLE, Nov az
The league Of nations was openly de-
fled and rebuked today when the
Turkish cabinet, meeting under the
craftsmanship Of Renal Pasha, refused
compulsory arbitration by the league
in MosuI boundary dispute.
The Hague tribunal recently decid-
ed that the league had a right to
make a unanimous decision on the
question of the boundary dispute,
which has been bone of contention
here since the British greed for oil
made it an object of1imperialist con-
quest.
Hague Decision Vicious.
The decision Of the Hague court
that the league had the right to fix
boundaries carried with it a revision
Of the covenant of the league of ma
tions which says that such decision
must be by unanimous vote. The
recent decision said, that the vote
must be unanimous with the exception
of the parties to the question in dis
pute.
The cabinet decision places the
matter where it was before-a direct
struggle between Britain and Turkey.
It cannot be settled permanently by
Cancellation so will eventually be
settled by force.

Coolidge Exposed Self
in New York Speech AS
Cheapest Kind of Liar
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

Washington are paid by the govern
ment. He doesn't have to worry
where his next meal is coming from.
In his speech he dealt with
Wholesale prices" thus displaying
his monumental ignorance. He con-
fesses that he doesn't know that
workers cannot buy Wholesale; that
they buy retail at the corner grocers,
the butchers or the chain tea and
coffee" stores. Wholesale prices
have dropped 30 per cent since 1920,
but the most acceptable index Of liY-
ing costs shows that retail prices
have dropped only 16 per cent.
TINE slight fall in prices in the
4 closing days of the Wilson
regime and the early part of the
Harding dynasty, for which Coolidge
is now trying to claim credit, was
but a meager REIMBURSEMENT that
took place with the ending of the
war that was featured by extor-
tionate tolls placed on all the neces-
stiles of life. So much for Coolidge's
cost of living"
ON the question of wages Coolidge
~ also lied. Even the New York
World, defender of the rich, con-
fesses that 1.-THE assumed increase
of 20 per cent in wages since 1920
is not borne out by the statistical
evidence"
Let Coolidge swallow these incon-
trovertible facts:
"The average per capita wages
of factory workers in New York
state are below the 1920 level. SO
are the payroll figures reported by
the U. S. department Of labor, head
ed by one Of cooIidge's own cabinet
members.
"That department also reports the
average hourly wage of common la
Dor in this country at Ss cents, COM
pared with 40 cents in 1920. The
rate paid by the steel corporation in
that year was IS cents. 1t is now
40 cents. Farm labor is now receiv-
ing an average Of $40 per month,
compared with sos in 1920"
TINE history of the textile industry
i in Coolidges own New England
states has been one wage cut after
annthar This cuttinp cama infn
greater evidence than ever follow
ing Coohdge's election last year.
The average weekly earnings in
the textile industry for 1924 was
the starvation wage of 1887. This
is according to the governments
own statistics. Figures gathered by
the United Textile Workers Union
indicate that this average should be
much lower, probably SIS per week.
1t is declared the average in Fall
River, Mass, is $3.50 per week.
THUS the Coolidge myth about in
4 creasing wages and lowering
cost of living is blown sky high.
During the coming session Of con-
gress, and the congressional cam
paign that will follow, many such
myths will originate in the White
House. They must meet with sim
liar treatment, not emily by labor
militants, but by increasing masses
of workers and poor farmers.

PoiIItt Pays Charges.
Harry Pollitt, who Is member of
the Executive Committee of the Com
munist international, declared in an
answer to the crown attorneys charge
that the Communists had conspired
in an illegal organization to over
throw the British crown before the
jury at the Old Bailey:
"Our views may be .repulsive, they
may be distasteful, totally wrong, but
they are our views and we have the
same right to repeat them as the peo-
pie opposed to us. +. The Communist
Party is a perfectly legal political
party which has been pursuing more
or less the even tenor Of It's way
since 1920"
He showed that no secret channels,
or secret methods were used and that
the party was legal organization hav'
ing a membership of over 5000 mem
bers of which but ten had ever been
in Russia.
Scotland Yard Takes Evidence.
Much Of the evidence which Scot
land Yard was to have introduced
before the trial, was material that
Scotland Yard had framed up on the
Communists. Scotland Yard had a
number of Pravdas that It was going
to use, until it became the public
property of the English workers, that
this issue of the Prayada had been
faxed by Scotland Yard.
Prosecution Becomes Dramatic.
A number of humorous incidents
have occurred sincen the trial had
opened with the crown attorneys
making themselves ridiculous telling
of the "conspiracies" and the Secret
gatherings" and the foreign emissa
ries" bringing Moscow gold" to the
London Communists, which they had

TODAY, the officials of some trade
unions are beginning to recover
from the effects Of Cal CooIidges bald
declaration to New York profteers,
that prices were going down while
wages were going up, hypocritically
declaring that this is real and solid
progress" This was nothing if not
rallying cry to the great exploiters
to continue their wage cutting cam
paigns.
Democratic organs, like the New
York World, that still have hopes
for the democratic party, are open
ing an attack on Coolidge's figures,
which will no doubt be repeated
very often between now and the
1926 congressional election, to DEM
onstrate the great prosperity that
it is claimed the republican admin
istration has heaped upon the coun-
try.
TT can hardly be expected that the
4 labor officialdom will wage an
open and energetic struggle against
this deliberate Justification by the
presidential strikebreaker. President
William Green and Secretary Frank
Morrison of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, have been visiting the
. White IokC -
lidge draw up his message that goes
to congress next month. They have
been so busy talking to Coolidge
that they have not had time evil
IDENTIFY to expose, even if they de-
sired, the master class propaganda
that Cautions Cal" spewed forth
before the chamber of commerce
gathering in the metropolis. 1t is
contrary to the etiquette of class
whom one fraternizes. Thus Green
collaboration to criticize those with
and Morrison, quite overcome by
their own Importance, in being
called to the White House, are eff
fectively disarmed in so far as they
might render any service to the
workers they are supposed to rep
resent.
THE democrats on the other hand
4 will lie on their side as much as
the republicans perjure themselves
to mislead working class voters. The
democrats will claim that every
good thing came out of the Wilson
administration and that prosperity"
; will never again burst in full bloom
until another democratic president
sits in the executive mansion. The
democratic attack on Coolidge's ut
terances is therefore only part of
that general denunciation thru
which it is hoped to return the don
key party to the national political
pie counter.
TT remains, therefore, for the mill
! tant elements in the labor move
ment to make the fight to show that
actual conditions give the lie to all
of Coolidge's pretensions. Every
housewife, without consulting the
official reports of the United States
department of labor, knows that the
cost of living has been steadily in
creasing since Mr.. Coolidge went
into office. Coolidge doesn't know
this. All his household expenses in

The attorney general in his closing
argument for the crown, said that it
did not matter where the prisoners
got money from, whether from Soviet
Russia or from other sources. What
mattered was what they did. He de-

cations in the army and navy"
Low Motives Of Capitalism Don't

Judge Swift in stating the position

that the case was one OF one political

said that this had no bearing on the
case, for if the defendants were
guilty the motives of the prosecutor
did not matter, even if they were low
motives.
