Lovers Lane seems to have as much
ability at changing it's location as a
Chameleon has of changing it's colors.
Personally we thought it was up
Brown Avenue. Someone else says up
the river. Another up past the
Methodist chruch and still later re-
port says down Grim Avenue. Isn't
there some way we can make it stay
put? It's mighty inconvenient for a
girl in this town to have to take a
man up one street one night and tell
him that's Lovers Lane and then the
next day have somebody tell her she's
all wet it's down the other way.

SPRING STRIKE
PLAN OF Marine
UNITED F R 0 N 7
Universal Demands to
Be Worked Out

NEW ORLEANS, La. (By Mail)
March S.-The second day Of the con.
ference of transport workers unions
from five of the twenty or so maritime
countries of the western hemisphere
was held here today,
AS there are representatives from
Cuba, Ecquador, Argentine and Mex
leo, proceedings are carried on in
both Spanish and English.
Great Strike Planned.
An international strike was agreed
upon of all countries in the western
hemisphere, at least of those five rep
resented, to be called in the spring.
It aims to tie UP all ports in the west
ern world, Of course, both salt and
fresh water, and to include not only
the seafaring unions but the steve
dores and longshoremen as well. This
was adopted after a debate, and the
conference will work out detailed
plans.
A strike stamp to be issued by the
unions involved was tentatively
agreed on, subject to the ratification
Of the unions represented.
Universal Address liners no DuaIIsm.
A universal cablegram address, tC
take the place of the lengthy titles of
the unions, was adopted. This adj
dress, which will be the word, "Eman.
cipation," followed by the name of the
port, will be registered with cable,
telegraph and radio companies. This
will be used between the various un
ions represented, a cablegram, for ex-
ample, addressed, Emancipation,
Havana" would be delivered to the
Laborers' and Stevedores Union of
Cuba, and to nobody else.
This infers, however, that the I'M
ions represented do not intend to set
up branches or organizations dual to
the existing union in any port. This
runs counter to the practice Of the
M. T. w. of the !. w. w. in Europe.
May Blockade California.
The conference went on record as
demanding the unconditional release
Of class war prisoners, and agreed to
boycott all California made goods un.
til the prisoners held in that state un-
der the slave criminal syndicalism''
law were released. This boycott may
take the nature of a strike in refusal
to handle California shipments.
The proceedings of the conference
viii be printed in both English and
Spanish.

general assembly, which it is declar-
ed, permits children between the ages
Of 10 and IA years to work in fac

ton, is "a damnable effort to permit
sweatshops again to employ children,
break down laws we have already
passed, and would result in under
mining the health of the children Of
this city"

Arley Staples, candidate for vice-presi-

than his rival Phil. Murray. 1t should
not be forgotten that this is the Of
fetal tabulation, and that the counting
was done by the Lewis machine. The
Official figures for the election Of Dis

THE British government is worried
over the Turkish mobilization,
which is ostensibly for the purpose of
putting down a Kurdish rebellion.
The British being seasoned burglars
and experts in finding excuses to at
property, believe that the rebellion
does not justify the number of troops
which the Turkish government is hur-
rying to the scene of trouble. 1t now
happens that where the Kurds are
kicking up shindy is within a gun
shot Of Irak, where valuable oil fields
are located. France has given the
Turks the use of the Syrian railway
for the transportation Of troops. The
British kicked. The French simply
grinned and asked the British for
eign Office to have smoke.
This is very interesting. It is a
Il sidelight on how capitalist gov
ernments work. France is operating
against England thru Turkey. Eng
land is knitting France thru Greece.
Turkey is but the handmaidcn of
France, and Greece is England's con-
cubine. Ditto for the litter of repub-
lies that were formerly under the
cars yoke, but are now on the pay.
roll Of some big power.
THERE are only two big capitalist
powers in Europe, England and
France. England is more or less
solvent. France is less, but possesses
good supply Of finished steel and
plenty of men willing to carry 1t. She
has no use for bill collectors. provided
they are not her own. The French gov
eminent has been able to work up &
good trade in alliance on borrowed
money. The supply seems to be ex
hausted and the little allies are
VIGOROUSLY tickle. The situation il
Turkey will bear watching. The germs
Of another world war are running
around loose in the Near East.
