Is YEARS MAKING QUILT
FINISHED TOMORROW

The work of IS years of continuous
sewing win be completed Thursday
when the Baptist women will finish
their History Quilt" Woven into the
intricate designs of this patch quilt
is much of the history of the Baptist
church and the names of the various
members that have assisted the
church.
The ladies of the Baptist League
bringing with them their lunches
this is to be an all-day session-and
their "self-denial," banks, will work
until they finish the quilt ON Thurs
day. That meeting will see the work
Of years brought to a successful end,
so the league is hoping for a large
attendance of its members.
This quilt should prove of extraor-
binary interest, not only to members
of the Baptist church, but to every
body interested in things out of the
common. The care and patience and
labor that has been expended on it is
incalculable, and it should be treas
ured in whatever church or public
building it may find fitting home

HOLD INDIAN FOR MURDER
OF PRESCOTT TAXI DRIVER

j. M. Cavill, 55, a taxicab driver,
was found a short distance from
Prescott Sunday morning with his
skull crushed with heavy iron bolt.
A short time after the body was found
Dickson Suyjamie; Wallapai Indian,
was taken into custody at Kingman,
and in a signed statement he accused
Frank Harper, Navajo Indian, of
Staying Cavill.
Cavill was evidently killed early
Sunday evening and his body dragged
about so feet from the road. A heavy
iron bolt with which his skull had been
crushed was lying beside the body.
According to the statement made
by Suyjamie at Kingman, Harper ar
ranged with him to get Cavill to drive
him to the Indian camp near Prescott,
telling him that he (Harper) would
meet them near the bridge a short
distance from the camp. He declares
that Harper met the taxi and got in
the back seat, and after going a lit
tie way, hit Cavill over the head with
a piece of pipe several times and then
stopped the car and dragged his body
off the road
Suyjamie declared that he was
given $3.50 by Harper, but he also had
in his possession knife and a tire
gauge which he said had been taken
from the slain man.
Suyiamie stated that he then took
the taxi and drove to Kingman. He
was arrested short time later by
Sheriff Mahoney, who was on the
lookout for the car.
George Suyjamie, alias George
Dickson, Wallapai Indian, confessed
to authorities at Kingman that he
killed Cavell.
The Indian is a grandson of the
famous Chief Leveleve and a nephew
of the present chief by the name.
Dickson told the police that he
killed the taxi driver so that he could
get the car and that he came to King
man to get gun and that he planned
to go to Skull Valley near PRESCOTT
and kill girl with whom he was in
fatuated, and then take his own life.
A letter addressed to Prescott po-
lice was found on Dickson, in which
he declared that he would "meet them
in heaven or hell" and that he plan
ned to kill an Indian girl named Min

Indians, and then take his own life

PRESCOTT, JEROME,
SUFFER WATER LACK

Water shortage is so serious in
Jerome as to threaten full-time con-
tinuance of work in the United Verde
mine, the main support of the COM
munity. The supply company now is
spending $4,000 in efforts to develop
better flow in Walnut canyon and is
shutting off the town supply at night,
but conditions are getting worse.
The same condition is known in
Prescott, where the city is preparing
to run long extension to the Hassa-
yampa river, after tapping number
of creeks in the mountains. Prescott
has connection with Del Rio springs,
but at the cost of very expensive
pumping with an old plant Drouth
conditions in central Arizona are the
worst known for years.

WOULD MAKE SAINT CUsS

Last Saturday night was indeed
jinx night for Mike Doody. Mike,
while passing up the alley back of
the Beale hotel with a bottle of
whiskey in his hand met Deputy
Sheriff Fred Cohenour. Mike smashed
the bottle on the ground and de-
stroyed the evidence. A little while
later Cohenour met Mike with an
other bottle and Mike repeated the
same performance of smashing the
bottle but lost his temper and used
some abusive language to Fred, and
persisted in insulting the rights of an
officer. Cohenour arrested him and
had him hailed in court before Justice
of the Peace Sam Miller who fined
Mike $25 and let him go free with the
provision that Mike Immediately make
himself absent from Kingman.-

The hysterical bourgeoisie Of Japan
are repeating the history Of czarist

will never prevent a revolution in
Japan so long as the worker refuses
to consent to be slave.
THE working class in Japan still
has red blood in its veins and will
not stand for such oppression any
more than the Russian worker would
stand for the czarist regime. The
stronger the governments oppression
the more active will the class con-
scious worker become. The capital
lists Of Japan are so terrified by the
fear Of revolution that in trying
to pass this anti-seditious act they do
not realize that they are repeating

the same time digging their own

law in England legally sanctions a
double standard of morals.
In the United States there are 35
million women. There are only two
women Representatives in congress.
Many professions and some UNIVERSE
ties are closed to women. Can the
bourgeoisie world solve the woman"
question? OF course not. A world
that is built on competition will be
against giving women the opportunity
of displaying her abilities. 1t is diff
ficult for the bourgeoisie women to
understand this truth. But it is very
important that the proletarian wom-
en- realize the importance of the fact.
The proletarian women must know
that there is no such thing as a sep
arate "women's question" They must
realize that they are a part of the
working class, that the cause Of the
working class is their cause and that
is why they must align themselves
very closely with the Communist
parties of their respective countries.
Only a Communist state of society
will give the women real freedom and
independence.
On the eight Of March, seven years
ago, the women Of Petrograd began
the struggle for the emancipation Of
the working women as well as for
that of the entire working class Of
Russia. They succeeded and today
have been rewarded for their labors.
They are the freest women in the
world today. We must follow in their
footsteps.

The Road to Freedom
BY RACHEL HOFFMAN

n T the time when the proletarian
IA women of the world over are
celebrating International Women's
Day, it is worth the time to stop for
while to consider what the women
in the different bourgeoisie countries
have achieved for the last few years
in solving the so-called "women's
question"
1t is worth while to know whether
the great promises made to the wom-
en- during the great war in regard to
their liberation bore fruit, whether
they are taking part in public affairs,
or whether they are secluded as years
ago, leading the old life of drudgery
and hardships.
In European countries it is an out
standing fact that men are not rush
ng towards new fields of conquest and
achievement for these fields are
closed to them.
In Germany the women took a diff
ferent stand than in other countries.
They have learned much during the
last few years of struggle. In Latin
countries the position Of women has
not changed. In France and Italy pub
lie sentiment is much less in favor OF
the new role played by women in so
cial life, than it has been before the
war. This in spite of the cooperation
OF the women in the war. 1t is very
apparent how conservative the bour-
geoisie world is, how little 1t changed
the old traditional attitude of the
masses towards women in general.
During the war. a group Of suffra-
gettes in France tried to take advan-
tage of the participation of the women
in the war. They brought in bill to
the chamber of deputies asking for
full suffrage rights. The bill was
turned down. In Italy, during the war
women were given prominent respon-
sible positions from which they were
kept away before. But when the war
was over of the fascist made it pos
made Mussolini its spokesman, the de-
mand for full suffrage became a Joke.
The chief OF the Fascist made 1t pos
sible only for the women of the bour-
geoisie to attain municipal suffrage.

preston Of solidarity of women of

international Women's Day; the Conn
munist Parties of all countries call
upon the masses of women of the
working class in the factories, in the
home, the unemployed women and the
mothers of children to revolt against
the intolerable conditions under which
they are forced to exist, ana to join
in the world struggle for Communism.
For it is Communism which alone
stands for the economic independence
of women and the right of mother

cy. Communism will save women
from exploitation and suffering, pro-
vided the women actively join IN with
the whole of the working class to
overthrow the monster capitalism
and in its stead institute the Commune
list society thru the dictatorship Of the
proletariat.
The general oppression Of the
world bourgeoisie against the work
ers Of all capitalist countries is still
continuing. II wrests the last bit of
bread out Of the workers mouths, in
tensifies their toll and tramples down
the last few poor privileges and rights
won in hard struggle.
In America, the great masses of
working women are still isolated from
the movement Of the working class.
But on this, the great International
holiday Of the working women Of the
world, March s, the Communist wom-

the washtub or the machine and real
ize that they are part of the great
movement Of proletarian women
whose home life has been destroyed
by capitalism, and who are destined
to destroy capitalism in their turn.
The women of all countries are our
sisters. They are facing the same
problems as ourselves. The wife of
the unemployed man who rocks her
baby by an empty Preside in Germany,
the mother in England, France, Italy,
Japan, ETC., are under the same lash
Of capitalism as the sweated women

of life. Only Russia, where the wom-

Der 3 being a preventive measure for
preparation for labor organization OF
any sort, and article number 4 aims
directly against the strike. Article
number would unish those who
circulate radical propaganda of any
sort, and article number would i'm
prison those who instigate the viola
ton Of law for accomplishing radical
ends.
1T is evident from article that the
L Japanese government actually be-
lieves the rumor that Communists
are being supplied with money from
the Third International. In order to
gather inside information from the
coward who fears that his arrest is
imminent the act would coax him into
confession by promises of exemptions
from punishment as a reward for his
seeming repentance Of his sin. Arti-
Gle 8 would keep from the Japanese
public knowledge of the trials and
punishments of political prisoners,
and article 10 would prevent organiza-
ton outside of Japan against the i'm
perial government. The last article,
of course interferes with the sover
eign rights of other countries.
THE passing of the anti-seditious act
i would create terrorism in Japan,
stirring people to nihilist assassi-
nations. But whether or not this or
any other laws are passed in Japan
for the suppression of the class con-
scious workers the Japanese revolu-
ton cannot be killed. You may hear
the revolutionary song of Japan in
the factories and streets, everywhere.
