PICNIC SAT. IS
DEMONSTRATION
OF The WORKERS
to Tell of War
on OPpreSSOrS

When the Workers Party holds
picnic, II is something more than
mere matter of eating "wienies" and
drinking soda pop. You come to such
a picnic, yes, to enjoy yourselves.
But the gathering together of sew
eral thousand people is too good an
opportunity to let slip when so many
things are happening that ought to be
known about. At the picnic next
Saturday in Beyer's grove there will
be races, games, dancing, refresh
ments and what not. But that isn't
all.
Turn Picnic Into Demonstration
The picnic in Beyer's grove will
also be a demonstration. 1t will be
a gathering of workers who will take
advantage of their coming together
for fun to perform few duties that
workers should perform when they
come together.
Those duties are in part, to discuss
the problems of their class-fght with
this exploiters, to do a little solid
thinking for themselves and to protest
against the oppression of their COM
rades and fellow workers wherever
they happen to be oppressed.
Just now, the millions Of workers
Of China are beginning to discover
that they can very well get along
without the brutal sort of advance
ment" that our own brand of imperial
list and those Of other nations are in
ficting on them. They have recently
expressed their resentment of foreign
exploitation in unequivocal terms.
They are in open rebellion against the
imported slave-drivers Of the west.
They are trying to drive them out as
they should certainly be driven out.
It's the business of the American
workers to help them do it.
Hear Message Of China
There will be with us at the picnic
on Saturday young man who knows
something about his country. He is a
Chinaman and his name is C. T. Chi.
Here is a rare chance to get the
Chinese puzzle Strengthened out in
your mind.
Jim Cannon will be there to give
you an example of what Communist
Interpretation of situation such as
exists in China is like. Mother" Ella
Reeve Bloor just finished a hike
across the country that will long be
the envy Of old people who think they
are still young. Mother Bloor is a
youngster of some sixty-odd years
that makes the far-famed Chauncey
Depew look like Methuselah. She will
tell you thing or two about the class
struggle that you didn't know before.
The International touch will be COM
pleted by the appearance Of a repres-
entative of an oppressed race that,
while it is familiar to us in everyday
life, constitutes a closed book to most
of us when viewed from social angle.
H. V. Phillips will tell US what the
American Negro Labor Congress is
doing to wake up our ten million Am
erican negroes.
How To Get There
Those who take a California car to
the north end of the line and walk to
Beyers' grove next Saturday will have
attended a picnic they will remember
at a time they won't be able to recall
where the other picnics they ever
attended were held.

Westinghouse and Siemens & Halskc Agree to Combine Their Efforts For the Next Ten Years.

New York, Feb. 1S.-The West inghouse and Siemens Ss Halske electrical interests, two of the biggest concerns In the industry, have anter- ed into ten-year agreement by which the American and German Cr- ganizations will benefit, mutually from research, invention and clec- trical methods, 1t was learned today. The Siemens group, which recently obtained loan of S10,00G, 900 in the American market, maintains one Of the most highly developed laborator- ies for electrical research in the world and it's products are known internationally. It was pointed out by representatives of the German firm, however, that the agreement does not mean invasion of the Amer icap market by the German firm.
 Max Haller, treasurer of the Sie- mems interest, and Dr. K. q. Frank, American representatives of the same group, who confirmed the agreement said they regarded 1t as a significant step in the development of post war relations between Germany and Inc United States.

FRENCH SAYING

A boy was determined to catch the moon. After fol- lowing it for awhile, he had to admit he was making no headway. He looked at the moon, and the moon smiled. The boy grew angry. Gnash- ing his teeth, he muttered, "1'll get event."
 The next night the boy procured some rocks and waited on the hill for the moon to appear. But that night, the moon didn't show its face, then the lad joy fully said to himself: See, the moon is afraid of mel"
