JEWISH WORKERS
RECEIVE LAND IN
SOVIET UKRAINE
Agricultural Colonies In
crease Rapidly

MOSCOW, Sept. 25.--According to
existing plans of the All-Ukrainian
Jewish Agricultural Settlement Socie-
ty. 1000 Jewish families are to be
put on the land during the current
year. The desire among the Jewish
masses for agricultural colonization
is so great that the available fund OF
arabic lands is far from adequate to
satisfy all applicants. 1t is proposed
to increase the rate of colonization
by POS per cent in the next year.
The government of Soviet Ukraine
has set aside $4,000 dessiatines of
land for the purposes of Jewish coloni-
cation in tAe Ukraine. Forest lands
have also been assigned for the use
Of Jewish settlers in building their
homes. Special credit organizations
are being established to finance the
Jewish colonists.

R.I.L.U. Urges World
Solidarity as Goal
of Striking Seamen

ton Committee endorses and around
which we urge all marine workers,
organized and unorganized, here and
abroad, to rally in support.
A Necessity Of First Importance.
What connections, other than one of
mere information, the M. t. w. has
built up with the strike committees
and official heads of the other unions
now on strike, the bulletins of the
M. T. w. strike committee does not
state. But such connections are of the
most necessary sort.
Looking ahead, We perceive that the
need for close cooperation between
these and other seamen's organiza.
tons is not going to end with the
present strike. The value of this
strike to the M. T. W., the prestige
it has gained before the whole world
of organized labor must be cherished
and held for the future. The lessons
it is giving to the revolutionary
movement Of all the world must be
retained and added to by future and
more complete solidarity.
Now while the seamen of the world
are watching the Marine Transport
Workers Industrial Union and ap.
plauding the fight they are putting
up, joining with them and looking
to them to continue upon the path
of international co-operation-now is
the time for the NJ. T. w. officially
to set up with their fellow workers
on strike overseas a committee OF
action or some other form of definite
cooperation in order that no break
in the fighting front Of the seamen
may lead to partial or total defeat
and to insure in the future as in the
present strike, that the ranks of the
rebel toilers Of the sea are welded
into compact body which will bring
the capitalist exploiters to terms.
For unity and revolutionary struggle,
Red international AfflIlatlon
Committee,

COUNTY PRISON
MATRON BEATS
negro inmate
Took Bath at Wrong
Hour in Jail

Mrs. Elizabeth Wright, matron at
the Cook county jail on North Dear
born street, was responsible for the
lnhuman Beating up Of Theresa Allen,
a Negro inmate awaiting grand jury
action. The matron had number Of
Negro and white prisoners beat up
Theresa Allen for an infringement Of
jail rules.
The representative Of the DAILY
WORKER learned that the infringe
ment of the jail rules was the taking
of bath at the wrong hour. The ma
iron ordered Theresa Allen to solitary
confinement. Theresa protested, then
the matron coerced a number of pris-
oners into beating up the yiolator of
Jail discipline.
The attorney for Theresa Allen was
, surprised to find his client in the con-
dition that he did. Hardly able to
stand, clothing covered with blood,
one eye completely closed and the
other black and swollen. she told her
lawyer, how five women, three color
ed and two white beat her into an
unconscious state and then threw her
into solitary. The lawyer had her re-
moved to the hospital Immediately.
Due to vigorous protest on the part
of many leading Negroes the matron
was dismissed.
Warden Weideling in Diminishing the
matron commented: TT was proper to
enforce discipline, but guards are here
for that purpose-not the other prison
ers."

English history that woman was an

TURKEY DEFIES
ENGLAND'S RULE
IN IRAQ-MOSUL
Refuse to Abide by the
Leagues Decision

LONDON, Sept. 25.-ln semi-ofil-
cial statement from Turkey to the
English government, Turkey reiter-
ates her stand that she will not abide
by the decision of the league of ma
tions.
The statement scores the attempt
Of England to take advantage of in
ternal Turkish difficulties to settle the
Iraq-Mosul dispute to her own sat
isfaction at the league of nations
The government statement contin-
ues:
Tho Lord Curzon declared that
Turkey would enter the league Of
nations on a footing of equality with
other nations, Turkey is now expect
ed to make implicit renunciations in a
qustion closely concerning her soy
ereign rights. It is impossible to con-
ceive that any Turkish government
could agree to make such a conces-
sion. The opponents of Turkey must
learn that a new mentality now reigns
in the country and that there is now
a new state with which they must me-
gotiate terms on an absolute equality.
So long as the old methods are fol
lowed no understanding is possible. "
Laokey of England.
The Constantinople newspaper,
Hakkimiet Mile, declares the
league has committed disgraceful
suicide and has proclaimed to the
world that it is the servant OF Bri-
fish imperialism. It states the mind
Of new Turkey quite concisely in
these words:
Turkey cannot and will not go to
The Hague.
The British in their folly are free
to address themselves to The Hague,
but all decisions tending to annul our
rights are considered by us in adj
vance void and without force"
1t also scores the tales of the de-
portation of Christians from Mosul
as fables of the familiar type"
England Alarmed.
This attitude Of Turkey has alarm
ed England. The imperialists of Eng
land are alarmed because of the tone
Of a certain section of the British
press which demands that England
Immediately evacuate Iraq. The die
hards fear that abandoning Iraq would
make Turkey more assertive of her
rights.
The capitalists Of England hate to
let this bit of rich oil land out OF
their hands and are trying to force
the league of nations to the use OF
sterner means than a mere note.

at their own game with the capital

CHECKERED
: CAREER
BY Alice LangeIier-

OPORT clothes are to have a
~ very checkered career this
season, If one is to judge from
the small garments seen on the
tennis and golf courses around
the French capital.
There are checks from neck to
hemline, in all sizes and designs.
The simmer One is the larger
the checks can be; and, Of course,
IL one has not just the right
willowy silhouette OF the day 1t
is best to stick to stripes, with
only the mere suggestion Of the
check in fine line running the
other way.
A delightful Rodier plaid comes
in brown and several other shades
on a ground of beige, the coat
being banded with brown kasha,
which also forms the lining, as
well as the revers and little stand
ing collar. The dress is a plain
one-piece affair, which is very
chic for a game of golf or any
outing. 1t has an inverted pleat
in the center-front, lined with
brown kasha, which also makes
the hem of the gown.
.Burafyl a new wool, is being
used by Marie Louise for charm
ing sports dress, in brown and
white, balanced by a linen collar
and tie and a girdle OF vivid
orange. Ideal tennis frocks come
in checkered surah, a silk that
resembles wool. One in yellow
and white has a black taffeta
pfrdle, lined with yellow, and
little pointed collar, and the
small set-in sleeves are interest
ing features. By the way, these
sleeves are much newer and
smarter than the cap kimono,
and all the couturiers are show
ing them, small pointed pieces
that hug the arm and make
pretty outline.
Cashmeres in plaids and stripes
are conspicuous among the sea-
sons sport sweaters, and some OF
the shops are making a speciality
of plaid and striped skirts for
wear with plain ones by way OF
a change. Little golf and tennis
jackets have plaids, chevrons.
lozenges and little triangles In
cubist fashion, bound round the
neck and down the front. Woven
ribbon and yarn, embroidered in
checks, carry out the prevailing
1otas
