Recovery Is Materially Helped
 by Finance Basis

Geneva, June IS Up - Albert Thomas, director of tho Interna- tional Labor office, told the dele- gates of 40 countries here for the International Labop conference that the year 1924 marked the beginning Of the re-establishment of normal economic conditions. He attributes the economic improvement to the patient work carried out by eveyr country since the cessation of hos tllities 10 remedy the direct or in- direct consequences of the war He paid high tribute to the Dawes re- port. and emphasized that a special place must be given to direct in- tervention of the League of Nations In the financial reconstruction of Austria, The speaker underlined the significance of the fact that im- mediately after league action the Austrian crown, whose headlong fall nothing seemed able to check. became as stable as the dollar.
 This Austrian achievement" said NJ. Thomas, was the starting point of similar reforms in other countries and was great lesson to Europe, followed by return to the gold standard in Russia. Germany. Poland, and Hungary, whose mone- tary situation before had been des- perate.
 These remarkable results have not been sufficiently brought out. When the League of Nations stabilized the Austrian crown the dollar was rising in Austria at the rate of 2l crowns day. When Poland stabilized it's mark, the dol lar was rising in Warsaw at the rate of 6s Polish marks a minute. When Russia established the chervo- metz, which is ten gold rubles, the dollar was rising in Petrograd at the rate of 1s,000 rubles a second. When Germany stabilized the mark by creating the rentenmark, the dollar was going up in Berlin by 6l3,000 marks a second"
 NJ. Thomas emphasized also the importance of the return 10 gold parity of three extra European cur rencies, the Canadian dollar, the Mexican peso and the Indian rupee and of neutral countries in Europe. Sweden, Holland and Switzerland.
 "Glsncing towards the United States" said NJ. Thomas, T find a change in the American economic position which has steadily im- proved since the war in comparison with the European situation. There are some satisfying systems which seem to indicateI new tendencies to- wards readjustment, for there is a levelling up of relations between inc New World and Europe" He emphasized that what has been progressing since 1924 was not so much world output as European output, for European output, he Said, Shs much more on scale squal te Amefican production than in previous years.
 There was, the speaker con- cluded, a falling off in American production in cast iron, steel, and shipbuilding. All this was good, he argued, for 1t indicated return to normal relations between Europe and America, and consequently the return of the world to economic stability.

GIRLS CONTROL
 THEIR OWN FATE
CAN CHOOSE CAREER, LIFE OF LILY OR MARRiAGE-THEM
 IN NEW THEME

This is rightly called the age of woman. To the girl of today life of fers bewildering opportunities ca reer, marriage and motherhood or the life of the lily who tolls and spins not. Hers is the choice.
 But the choosing is only the over ture to the conflict which spells dra- ma. For while youth and beauty are here woman must contend with fate and circumstances-and the age old story of the way of man and maid.
 The foregoing is the captivating theme of Lilies of the Field" First National Picture, which is coming to the Liberty Theatre tonight. It was directed by John Francis Dillon who made Flaming Youth and co-feat- ures Corinne Griffith and Conway Tearle, who are supported by Sylvia Breamer, Myrtle Stedman, Alma Ben- nett, Crauford Kent Charles Murray, Phyllis Haver, Cissy Fitzgerald, Edith Ransom and Charles Gerard.
 Miss Griffith has the greatest role of her remarkable career. Heroically shouldering the disappointments and tragedies of life, her resistance slow ly gives way and she is about to seek forgetfulness in life of ease and gay ety when real love enters her life.
 Lilies of the Field" is a picture it one of the outstanding successes of with a poignant appeal that has made the year.

Now he is assuming the leadership ma

Garments Bright Idea Z
All to the Good, Only
Union Must Keep Fund

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1O-Decision
by the general executive board of the
Amalgamated Assn. of Street and Elec-
trio Railway Employees, to demand in
all wage contracts henceforth that the
employing company provide death and
accident insurance and old age dis
ability benefits, without cost, has been
made public by the executive council
of the American Federation Of Labor
with its tacit endorsement. II the
union would control all funds, this
would meet the only remaining left
wing objection.
The streetcar men have been study
ing welfare" schemes for the past
year, and have determined that the in
clusion of the ordinary insurance and
retirement benefits should be accepted
in all future contracts as a right OF
the employees. In this way they will
remove the temptation of streetcar
workers to trade their union affilia-
ton for promises of company pen
sion.

ton and John L. Lewis for financial
aid to keep their little children from
starving and freezing to death, they
sent word back that they only had
enough money in the treasury to
run the organization. And at the
same time Frank Harrington drew
from the miners treasury approx
mately $1,000 in a six months
period!
And out Of this same treasury
Hundreds of dollars were paid out
for death claims when there were
no deaths or death claims to be
paid.
8At the same time as the looting of
the miners treasury was going on, the
rank and file miners in O'Fallon were
compelled to go out at night and steal
coal to keep their children from freez
ing to death.
But does this concern Farrington7
Not at all. What does he care about
a few thousand children starving or
freezing to death so long as he and
his sIuggers have free access to the
miners treasury?
Well Say It's Timel
Fellow workers, is it not time for
action? Let's bury the dead and give
the living chance. Did II ever
occur to you that when the operators
begin to squeal because the Commun
lists take leading part in the organi
cation and expose the footing OF the
miners treasury, and fight for better
wages, shorter hours. and better con.
ditions for the working people, that
our state and national officials also
begin to squeal about the Commun
lists?
And when 1t happens that these mil
liant fighters are in office. II Is moi
long before Frank Harrington and
John l.. Lewis not only put them Out
OF office, but also clear out Of the or
ganization.
Mule drivers like Harrington and hi,
tools make efod slave drivers for tn,
operators.

Just what sinister forces are behind
this capitalist tools espionage upon
the National India ASSOCIATION and
those who work for the freedom of
the Irish people. Capitalism is con-
tinually trying TO convince organized
labor that it should have nothing to
do with the labor unions Of other
countries.
But what logic remains IN the argu-
ment against international trade
union unity, let alone an alliance be-
tween the American proletariat and
the movements for national liberia
ton now fighting against imperialist
oppression, when we see that here In
America, American imperialism is so
interested in safeguarding British i'm
peralism that, regardless of the
strongest conflicting interests in
China and elsewhere. 1t Is paying
secret agents to spy upon the internal
foes Of British Imperialism.
Labor Spies Hate Labor Defense.
The third matter reported by this
labor spy is likewise a subject in
which every worker has an interest
and an interest opposed to that OF
capitalism and its secret informer.
The International Labor Defense
has been attacked most viciously by
an element In the labor movement.
While this element is small in num-
bers, yet It will from now on be re-
garded by honest workers as in alli-
ance with the detectives sent among
labor to spy upon II.
Against Negro Labor Congress.
The fourth and last matter re-
ported ia the American Negro Labor
Congress. Evidently the labor hating,
union disrupting and Communist
batting capitalists Of America are
very much opposed TO the American
Negro Labor Congress and 10 the or
SANITATION in the labor unions Of
Negro workers. This Is a certificate
to all honest workers, that the union.
