The copper share market has done
the same thing 1t has repeatedly done
on various occasions during the last
few years. There has been a brief
period of hope that, with the measures
taken to restrict home production and
with the prospective Improvement in
the foreign buying power, prices for
the copper metal would get back to a.
more profitable basis. These antici-

BUTTER BIT LOWER
DURING WEEKS TRADING

CHICAGO, June P).--Throuch-
out most of the week the butter mar
kets maintained steady to firm posi-
tion. Sentiment was for the most part
in favor of low values, as dealers gen.
orally felt that prices were too high
but attempts To force the market to
lower levels were met with sufficient
buying demand to prevent any de-
cided decline, and held the price level
to half cent higher at the principal
markets.
With the reports of heavy rains
early in the week throughout the pro-
ducing sections, some bearishness
developed and the markets at
New York and Chicago were momen-
tarily easier, but this feeling soon
changed and more confidence was ex-
pressed with a steady to firm market
prevailing.

AL Disnafch to The Star


NEW YORK, June 6.-In the Wall
Street operations of the last week
there was sharp divergence between
the investment side and the speeula-
tive side. Investment securities
were inclined to work higher. United
States Treasury issues established
new highs.
Liberty bonds either equaled or
came close to the top figures reached
during the period of abnormally low
money rates in the Summer of 1924.
Corporate bonds of the first rank
were correspondingly strong, and a
general advance occurred in invest
ment stocks, particularly the pre-
ferred shares of the better class of in
duStrials.
All this was a reflection of easy
money conditions and of the expec-
tation that they would continue. This
has its favorable aspect in the sense
that it is good thing for financial
and commercial enterprises to be as
sured of an abundant credit supply
available on low terms. 1t has an
other aspect which Is not as favor
able, in that calculations regarding
the maintenance of cheap money in
volve the supposition that there is
IOI SOlIS 10 DE any increase IN tFaQe
activity such as would absorb the
money surplus.
Speculative Stocks Lower.
The speculative movement in recent
years has not been sensitive one way
or another to the fluctuations in the
money market. On the one hand the
knowledge that there are enormous
credit resources centered in the Fed.
raj reserve banks is a supporting fac
tor. But on the other hand is the
realization that values of speculative
stocks depend primarily not upon
cheap money, but upon individual
business conditions.
The speculative end of the stock
market has gone lower for the most
part during the week. This has been
due not to disappointment over the
outside trade news, which, on the
whole, has been better. Chiefly 1t
has been in the nature of a readjust-
ment after a fortnight or SO of some
what excessive operations for the rise
in various quarters. particularly in
the public utility shares and In some

The steels have gone down notwith-

minutes Of the proceedings, and In this
case they proceeded to say the min
utes had not correctly explained their
position and their viewpoint, and they
sent letter to Moscow-two letters,
in fact, one on Feb. IL and the other
on March lin which they explain
their position to the Women's Secre-
tariat and the Executive Committee,
and here have the answer Of the Elk
secutive Committee to their explana-
ton dated May 5, 1925. They say on
the question of women's sections, II
was not the issue between us The
matter is cleared up, but on the main
issue, which was the ISSUE between
Comrade Bittelman and myself, be-
tween the majority and the minority,
they continued to say the following:
This settles that question, but the
main question Of which the Interna-
tional Women's Secretariat differed
from the majority of the G. e. c. was
the question of the role of the United
Working Women's Council and the
party's relation with the same" In
other words, after their explanation,
they get an answer which says they
were Just as wrong as before that ex-
PLANTATION.
ITFE declared that our party suffered
w in the last year from leadership
which, because Of it's incorrect poll
cies, could not mobilize the party nor
could It bring the masses of workers
under the leadership of the party to
any great extent. We say that our
membership, which was 10000 when
the present minority was in the ma
jority of the G. q. @. and grew to
1900 during the first six months of
1924, was again reduced to $4,000 dur
ing the first six months of 1925, so
that we stand exactly today where we
were year and half ago, and we
say that G. e. G. which comes to
the party with year and a half Of
struggle, of work, Of expenditure of
our forces in the work of our party,
and cannot show progress in building
the party, does not deserve leadership.
(Applause)
We say, comrades. that the c. E. G.
has chosen to follow the same course
to unite itself in the party with the
same elements which were the basis
OF its support in the past and which
will again influence it in the wrong
direction. We say the majority group
in this convention made that choice
when 1t chose to use it's power to over
ride the minority in the fact that it
took from it the positions of leader
ship in the party work which 1t won
by vote of the majority in the districts

Only when we became tired out did
we succeed in sleeping in the moving
machine. Three of us took turns driv-
ing the machine. At the wheel we
soon became sleepy While reclining
for the purpose of sleep we remained
wide awake. This was the experience
Of all of us. We found, however, that
we obtained sufficient rest even tho we
seemed not to sleep at all. 1t will be
easily possible for a cre~ 20 drive
machine from San Francisco to Chi
cago in five days and nights in the
near future. One more year, or at
the most two more years. will find the
highways all graded and dependable.
Why do not comrades use their
evenings, Sundays, holidays and out
of-work vacation periods more for the
social process of circulating our liter
ature and less for the personal process
of mere pleasure seeking? Hunting
subscribers is far more exciting and
interesting than hunting fun for fun's
sake. Learn to put all you meet on
record. Let your friends know how
disgraceful 1t is to waste their time
and money. Hold them up to some
degree of scorn and ridicule if they
fail to take the DAILY WORKER and
read it. Extend your circle Of friends
to all you meet. Then meet all YOU
can. Don't let them get away with
the idea that it is smart and the thing
to be ignorant and wasteful in rela-
ton to working class problems. Put
up fight. Nothing short Of this can
give you any real zest in life. Use
your auto to purpose.

made. challenge you to show any
thing in your motion which shows
work among women in the factories
and ours which says work among
housewives. That was never the issue.
What was the issue? Not that, COM
rades, but we had in New York the
United Council of Working Glass
Women. It was an organization OF a
united front character; first, delegates
from existing organizations, and, sec
ond,, it had in addition, individual
membership-and the question was,
what we were to do with this organiza-
ton. Your proposal, Com Bittelman, az
it is here, is that the United Council
of Working Glass Women shall be-
come the Women's Department of the
Workers Party. In other words, you
wanted to liquidate a non-party or
ganization and take few of its mem
bers and make 1t the Women's Section
of the Workers Party. In answer to
that, our proposal was that we shall
continue, that we shall build the U. @.
Wv. and try to. develop 1t into a
mass organization. And, comrades,
the minutes went to the O. L. and
