FAVOR WITH
PARIS
Plain Modes Pass With Friv-
olous Change in Fashion
in French Capital
BY ALICE LANGELIER
By International News Service

PARIS. Sept. 19.-Fashion is
again becoming frivolous, which is
no more than what was to be ex-
pected. After a season of plain
simple models on straightest lines
it Is only natural that trimmings
would come in for their turn. M
Fringe is a favorite for> evening
dresses. IT is often combined with
embroidery or is made by splitting
the fabric into tiny strips and en-
broidering each strip with beads.
At other times the entire. skirt II
covered with fringe or beaded
fringe covers flounce of con
trasting color to the dress. One in
white and silver brocade has deep
fringe of fine crystal beads over a
flounce of sky-blue satin.
A white satin has a draped
apron trimmed in deep silk fringe
with huge bow in the back with
ends finished with the fringe. An
other embroidered in royal blue
paillettes has a deep fringe Of blue
beads.
Satin is sewn with crystal beads
and incrusted with sealskin. Gold
tissue is trimmed with fur. A
black chiffon dress is embroidered

A long distance ), romance, which

Increase In Prices on Entire
Property to Take Effect
September 20

The increase in price Of all lots
at Herald Harbor which was an
nounced a few days ago has proven
to be quite stimulouB to sales,
which resulted in the transfer of
many thousands OF dollars, worth OF
waterfront property before the adj

The announcement made by the
Herald HarbOr Company stated that
; there would be a. general increase
Of from 10 to rs per cent effective
September %. This increase, 1t was
said, was made necessary because
OF. the thousands Of dollars that are
being spent in installing improve
ments that win enhance the value
OF the lots much more than the ad-
vance in price.

tract thousands Of visitors next
season. During the past summer
tremendous crowds enjoyed the
salt water bathing at the other
beach at Herald Harbor, and the
developers expect the number to be
more than doubled next year
Electric lights have just been in
stalled and workmen are now busy
putting in water works that will
be ready for use in the very near
future. These improvements, of
course, will benefit the lot owners
at the colony, and will cause an in

much nearer to the District, Is ex-
pected by October 1. When this
road is finished the colony will be
only twenty-four and six-tenths
miles from the District, and thou

FOREIGN Money
after BANKRUPT
MANCHURIAN R. R.
Now Operates at Very
Heavy Loss
Especial to The Daily workerl


HARDIN, April 5.--The economic
position of the South Manchurian
railway is far from being as brilliant
as carefully arranged official reports
purport to make it appear, according
to the latest reports by the local Har.
bin papers. The inability Of the rail.
way to move on the shipments OF
timber, which are regularly being sent
by the Chinese Eastern railway. would
by itself bear sufficient evidence to
the unsatisfactory conditions evolved
by the policy of the former line. Thus,
there is actually tie-up at the sta
ton Of Changohun, where over one
hundred and fifty carloads of timber
materials have been accumulated. The
reason, according to competent opin-
ion, is solely the fact that the line
lacks the necessary rolling stock.
Finance Bad
These transport deficiencies ara
partly due to the not entirely salts
factory financial condition Of the
South Manchurian railway. Indeed,
the line owes more than 200 million
yen in different loans, the bare pay
ment Of interest on which absorbs
some 16 million yen yearly.
It has transpired, for instance, that
last year the directors of the South
Manchurian railway tried to obtain
new loan from foreigners, who 40
coded to the request, but set such ex-
tortionate conditions that the appli-
cants themselves let the matter drop.
This leaves the railway in a bad
plight, as, while the enterprise natur-
ally needs new funds for its develop
ment, it is actually placed in such
condition that it can count on ita
own receipts alone, derived from the
exploitation of the line and associated
enterprises. The plain fact is that. an
result of all this, the administration
of the South Manchurian railway sees
itself compelled, thru want Of ade-
quate capital and circulating funds, 70
curtail the plan OF new construction
and eventually to refrain from in
creasing the rolling stock.
Japanese Lose Million Yen
II any further proof of the above
mentioned considerations were need
ed, 1t would suffice to note, as the
local papers here pointedly remark,
that even the Osaka Mainichi, whose
views ought to carry weight, is most
pessimistic as regards the whole 81
tuation.
What strikes any Thoughtful observ-
er is that, under the depicted condi-
tions, the directors of the South Man
churian railway should have found fit
to embark upon a hazardous policy of
working at loss on a system Of sub
sides for attracting loads from the
direction bin-Eggersheld (Vladivo-
stok). Expert opinion holds that this
struggle into which the Japanese line
has entered will cost the latter not
less than seven million yen or more.
without bringing any substantial gain
in return.

Poland forced the proletariat to form
it's own protective organization.
In order to combine the work Of
the individual sections internationally,
in July, 1924, the first international
congress took place. At this congress
20 countries were represented. The
congress decisions provided the basis
for the future activity. With regard
to the practical experiences in the
Soviet Union, the organizational prin-
ciples of the Red Aid of the Soviet
Union were made the example for the
activity in other countries Forma-
ton of mass organizations, with nu-
clei in all shops--this is the present
task as the congress has formulated
it. 1t is not sufficient to awaken the
international proletarian solidarity
among the workers-this feeling of
class solidarity must take concrete
forms. The congress stressed in its
resolution that the work of the I. r. A.
should not be neglected for a mo-
ment. The congress endorsed at the
same time the decision of the Execu-
tive Committee of the l. R. A. that the
18th of March should be in future the
Day Of the Political Prisoners.
Large Membership.
The activity of the l, r. A. in the
capitalist countries entered new
phase after the congress. In most
countries the establishment of the
membership organization was started
so that at the end of last year alone
in Germany 100000 members had been
organized.
The week from the first to seventh
of December, the l. r. A. Week, led
new fresh forces into our ranks. In
Russia, further million of members
was gained by our organization. In.
other countries the organized support
Of our cause by many revolutionary
fighters proved that no prosecutions
are able to strangle the gigantic
force, which is called International
Solidarity. This solidarity does not
only consist in material support pro-
vided by the masses to the political
prisoners. This material support is
very considerable. In
the two years of its existence, the
|. R. A. has collected a total sum of
over $1,0OO,0O0 which was used for
the support of the imprisoned COM
rades and their families.
However, similar and even some
times greater help for the political
prisoners is that moral which is given
to the victims Of class justice when
they see that the proletarian masses
take care of them with love and at
tention.
May the second anniversary Of the
International Red Aid strengthen our
organization, may the great nantes
tation of the solidarity with the pol
itical prisoners be at the same time
a manifestation for the uniformity
Of our forces, for the unity of the In
ternational Red Aid.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-04-07

due to the devotion and true inter
national solidarity of the. workers and
peasants themselves which made it
possible that the small group of old
Russian Bolsheviks who formed the
I. r. A. were able to build up in this
short period such a powerful strong
hold of the world revolution.
Everyone who really wants to sup
port his imprisoned comrades and in
whose bosom a revolutionary heart is
beating and who wants to join our
ranks, should today throw glance
at the road which the l. R. A. has
gone.
Many Class Prisoners.
The |. r. A. Is no invention of in
dividual comrades, but it is the "legit-
innate" child Of its time, for never
has the proletariat had so many vic
tins as now, in the peaceful post
war period" in the time of recon
struction" and PREPARATION"
The /. r. A. was formed by a group
of old Russian Bolsheviks who suf-
fered themselves the fortunes of the
czarist prisons and Siberian exile. 1t
is natural that the activity of the
/. r. A. found a specially favorable
ground in the Russia of the workers
and peasants. While in the capitalist
countries the white terror is not only
directed against the "high traitors"
and the political criminals" but be-
gins also to attack those who dare to
support these traitors the wave Of
general sympathy for the fighters Of
the world revolution grow in the So
Wet Union. Already, one year after
its formation, the /. R. A. had 500 900
members in Russia and at present
it's membership in the Soviet Union
has grown to approximately $500, 900.
Still more significant is the growth
of the collected sums. In January,
1928, the Central Committee Of the
Russian Red Aid received 300 roubles
and in December, 1924, this sum had
increased to 100000 roubIes. In the
following months about the same
amounts were collected AT present

The activity Of, the, ]. RIA. in these
two years was certainly not carried on
under favorable conditions On the
one hand, it was hampered by the
continuous attacks against the revo-
lutionary organizations and on the
other hand by the extreme pauperiza-
ton of the workers of the Central
European countries where the Red
Aid is particularly needed.
However, despite these difficulties,
