EROM the very first and to the very
4 last England has been pursuing
a policy of threats and violence. How
ever, there are already signs to the
effect that England, preparing with
one hand for Intervention, is ready
to stretch out the other hand with an
olive branch in IT, This is indicated in
the replacement of the Hongkong
governor Sir Reginald Stubb, notori-
Gus for having introduced corporal
punishment for "agitators," whose
name fills with pride, the heart Of
every imperialist lingo, but has be-
come hateful to the Chinese masses,
as a symbol OF British arrogance and
Of the most ruthless colonial oppres-
sion. This arch imperialist with whom
the representatives of labor would
not think Of dealing, has been remov-
ed from Hongkong and transferred
to Jamaica. Even the very tone of
the British press. after three months
OF threats and provocation, has
changed. Il will suffice to compare
several extracts from the leading
British organs.
The North China Daily News of
Shanghai, a semi-ofIicial press organ
of British Imperialism, wrote as fol-
lows In regards to the efforts OF the
Chinese chamber of commerce in
Shanghai TO find compromise in the
conflict; ."As for the merchants of

on record TO mold an inter-
national conference of marine
transport workers during the
year of 1925.
The First Conference.
one Of the first acts of the incoming
general organization committee OF
1926 was to issue a call to the mar
thine unions of the Western Hemis-
phere, 81 in all, to sit in conference
at New Orleans on March LIST. 1926,
for the purpose of coming to an I'M
derstanding and accomplishing CO.
operation and solidarity on an inter-
national scale. At the time the call
was sent out by the main office, it was
hoped that a successful strike could
be pulled by the marine workers of
the Western Hemisphere acting in
harmony and conjunction with one
and other. Mention of this phase was
made in the appeal sent to the vari-
Gus marine unions.
Due to the limited time to perfect
plans for successAuI strike, many
Of the unions appealed to were I'M
able to send any delegates to the con-
ference and most of the representa-
ton at the conference was from the
United States, Mexico and the West
Indies with a few delegates from So
America.
Altho the conference was not 100
per cent perfect, and was not the
I voice of the entire organized marine
workers of the Western Hemisphere,
many practical and progressive sug-
gestions were brought forth and many
of them, such as cooperation in
strikes and boycotts are being prac-
ticed by those unions who were re-
presented at New Orleans.
M. T. w. has Proved Itself.
, Proof of this cooperation by the
/, membership of the l. w. w. is proved
+. by the boycott of Norwegian ships at
/, the request Of the Norwegian seamen,
f; who were on strike during the past
!, summer, and also the many boycotts
/, originated by the workers of the West
!. indies and Mexico. We. also wish to
, call your attention to the cooperation
: of the l. w. w. during the outlaw
, strike" of British seamen against a
, reduction in wages In this instance
. the /. w. w. took a strike vote which
I was overwhelming and tied up many
! ships flying the British flag as well
! as many ships Of other nations.
|, We realize the evergrowing power
|. Of the master class, and the utter i'm
possibility of individual unions to
I cope with this power Of the employ
!, ing class on the economic battle
. ground. If the marine workers are
!. to make any Advancement they must
act together and not as individuals
This battle by the seamen for eman.
!, cipation ie a struggle for control Of
= the job by the seamen and other
marine workers and as stated in the
first appeal for the New Orleans con.
ference.
I'VE plan the death OF our
former policy Of isolation In this
conference and In its place we plan
action in our struggles against our
oppressors, the capitalist class. We
are carrying. out this program baseu
on the class struggle in society"

that strike, for 1t, too, plans lmperla
the Trade Union Educational League,
gives to the American workers the
story of that strike told by the fol-
lowing greeting to the French work
ers by the executive bureau of the
Red International of Labor Unions:
The executive bureau of the Red
International of Labor Unions sends
warm and fraternal greetings to all
the workers of France who have taken
part in the strike called in protest
against the war in Morocco and Syria.
This protest strike is a serious warn
ing to the ruling classes not only of
France, but also of other countries;
it signifies that 1914 has gone. never
to return.
The broad masses of the French
proletariat, thanks to the Communist
Party and the C. G. T. U. unions, have
understood the character and signi-
ficance Of the military undertakings
of the third republic. The 18th of
October demonstrated this amply and
in the eyes of ALL
democracy" Collapsed.
This strike of protest bitterly OPP
posed by all strata of the bourgeoisie
marks an important stage in the
development of the French labor
movement. During the strike bour-
geois democracy showed it's national
fascist aspect and this will serve as
an object lesson to those workers who
still believed in the left bloc and in
bourgeois democracy.
All this time the socialist party and
the reformist Confederation of Labor
have played a particularly loathsome
role. Their conduct was that of open
and shameless scabbing.
acted most abnominably in their re-
cent attack on the revolutionary work
ers-the fascists or the reformists.
One thing is clear. That the Com
munist Party and the Unitary Con
federation of Labor had a united
front, from the monarchist Leon
Daudet to the reformist Leon Jouhaux,
against them.
IScabbing Now Socialist" Principle.
Blacklegging has always been count
ed the most disgraceful and abomin-
able act of treachery. This is realized
by strikebreakers who, while accept
ing the pieces of silver given them,
do their dirty work in secret, afraid
to act openly and never endeavoring
to. support their strikebreaking &C.
/ tions Of any fundament of principle.
All this has been changed by the
French reformists, with Leon Jouhaux,
first vice-president of the Amsterdam
International, at their head. They
came forward openly as strikebreakers
and smashed the strike of protest
jointly with the police and fascist
bands. Thus, step by step, the re-
formists have sunk to open black
Logging.
Hundreds Of Thousands Struck.
Despite the wild campaign of lies
conducted by the radical, fascist and
reformist press, in spite of the organ
lied blacklegging, hundreds of thou
sands of workers openly and daringly
demonstrated their indignation, scorn
and protest in the face of the bour-
MISUNDERSTANDING bloc.
Let the French bourgeoisie rage
Let French reformism, discredited
at last, lie about you. Nothing, nc
one. will be able to suppress the his
toric fact that only the Communist
Party and the Unitary Confederation

The dance held at the Tennis Court at
the Marine Barracks on Saturday night
was. well attended, and everybody spent
a lively time. The Native Brass Band
furnished music for the occasion and
kept the dancers busy with some of the
latest American hits. At the hour OF
twelve as the band played the popular
Home Sweet Home" the happy com
pany felt that they had come to the end
of perfect day" At the conclusion of the
dance Captain Creamer went over to the
Band and thanked them for the fine mus
ic rendered at these dances, as this may

that the good Captain and Mrs. Dreamer
may soon be leaving St. Croix. Band
master Jackson replied on behalf Of the
Band and also thanked the Captain for
the marked courtesy shown them at all
time. While refreshments were being
served some Of the Marines assisted by a
few ladies rendered some very entertain
ing songs.
