League BARS
DRUSE ENVOY
FROM HEARING
League of Brigands in
fragrant Combine

GENEVA, Dec. 13.--If the Druses
of Syria hope to get any justice out Of
the international bandits of the league
of nations which back up the murder
Gus French administration under the
leagues mandate, they will have to
get II at the end Of rifle.
Refuse to Listen.
That is the only conclusion possible,
since the council Of the league refused
Wednesday to receive, let alone con
ider, an envoy from the Druses who
was sent to protest against the French
administration in Syria.
The envoy of Ihsan Djajbir Bey Of
Damascus, representing the executive
committee of the Syro-Palestine indie
pendence movement. He not only adj
dressed a request for hearing to the
collective council of the league of ma
lions, but also to each single mem
Der.
The French and British at once got
together to bar out the Druse from
getting even a hearing. The British,
Austen Chamberlain and Lord Robert
Cecil doing this as an exchange for
the French last December having aid
ed the British in barring out Fanouse
Pasha, an Egyptian delegate, when
Egyptians came last year to the
league of nations to protest against
British soldiers seizing Alexandria,
Cairo and the Sudan. British also fear
that the people of Palestine will be
next to demand deliverance from
their protectors" under league man
date.
Wanted League to obey its Laws.
The Druse envoy declares that they
have 10000 rifemen in the field, have
captured six months ammunition from
the French and intend to fight until
they are killed off.
And" says the Druse, "all the
Druses ask is that the league execute
its own covenant requirements and
send committee to investigate how
the French are misunderstanding the
mandate in Syria"

pose of the resolution has already
been accomplished, because Yanof-
sky is no longer in the Office of JUS
tice." Yanofsky resigned just before
the convention.
Sigman interrupted Zimmerman,
and when the latter told Sigman ito
keep his insinuations until he heard
the facts" the machine delegates
staged a near riot that lasted for ten
minutes forerunner Of what was
to come in the afternoon session. 1t
was after quiet had been restored
that Sigman made his threat of the
use Of special officers"
The vote on the endorsement Of
the past policy was ISL for and liz
against igman's tactics and the
speeches of his supporters resulting
in the loss of seven votes from the
average strength shown here by the
machine.
Italians Form Bloc.
No session of the convention will
be held Sunday, and in the meanwhile
the Italian delegates, about fifty of
whom are present, have formed them
selves into a so-called group which is
conducting negotiations with both
the right and left groups.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-12-15

brot into the debate a note of hope
for the future and confidence in the
fighting spirit of the membership that
was completely lacking in the
speeches of the machine delegates.
Clever ManeuVer.
The Sigmanites had Unanswered
rather cleverly, knowing that on the
New York situation they could not
hope to win, they divided the ofic-
ers' report into three parts-indus-
trial conditions, internal situation,
and the morale of the union.
They insisted that the debate must
be confined to these divisions and
that the internal situation. for in
stance, could not be discussed under
the head of industrial conditions.
Sigman Has No Program.
Portnoy moved to combine the
three sections and have the commit
wee read it's whole report, but the
motion was defeated.
The committee report merely en-
dorsed the work and policies of the
General Executive Board on industrial
conditions since the Boston conven-

Stopped by Battles

PEKING, Dec. ID The interna-
tional train which was shelled by
General Ii Ching Lin's artillery,
Saturday, was back in Yangtsun today
after an unsuccessful attempt to
reach Tientsin.
1t was learned that the Smelling of
the train was probably precipitated
by General Feng Yu Hsiang, who at
tempted to pierce his adversaries'
lines by following in the wake of the
international train with two armored
trains.
With hot fire coming from both
directions over their heads, passen-
gers of the International train aban-
doned it and returned by motor to

union.
Exposes Secret Deal.
Hyman then exposed the secret
manipulations by which the arbitration
agreement had been put over on the
union and made the statement which
was not denied, that Feinberg was
kept in Office by the machine when
his colleagues all admitted his mis-
deeds. Hyman challenged the ma
chine to deny that HillQuit had made
this proposal for arbitration and that
even the local officials were not con-
suited.

strike, with the industry stopped, had

provocation and insults, including the
open threat of the use of special Of
ficers, against the rank and file Wis
itors to the convention.
YanofsEy Provoeatlon.
AS part of this policy Sigman had
Fisher of Local 10 bring forward a
resolution passed by the New York
Joint Board condemning Yanofsky, a
former editor of Justice, for his ar
ticles against the Joint Board and in
defense of crooked practices of former
business agents.
Zimmerman spoke for the resolu-
ton and Sigman then gave Yanofsky
the floor to make the most vicious
ami slanderous attack on the left
wing, and especially Zimmerman,
that has been delivered here.
The connection between the speech
of Yanofsky and the general policy
of provocation becomes apparent
when it is considered that the con-
domination of Yanofsky could have
been debated at any time within the
last two weeks before the most inn
portant question of the convention
was on the floor.
General officer Threat.
Zimmerman stated that "the pur-

we might have gone before an arbi-
tration board with an uitimatum.
But it was your crime that you asked
for arbitration, convinced the bosses
we were afraid to fight, and disor-
ganized our army at the same time, 4"
said Lyman.
Every cloakmaker Knows It.
A tremendous storm or applause
broke out when Hyman concluded by
saying that every cloakmaker will
know that l am right when say that
the continuation of such policies

ton, it put forward no future pro-
gram but it refused to endorse the in
dustrial program of the left wing con-
tanned in resolution number 33.
This lack of program enabled Rose
Wolkowitz to ask a very embarrass-
Ing question which took Sigman ten
minutes to "explain"-"you have re-
j cted our program, wheer is your
own?"
Blames the Members.
Feinberg's speech set the fashion
for the machine speakers who follow
ed him. For the deplorable conditions
IA the industry he blamed the bosses
and the workers, particularly the
workers. He cited number of in
s.ances which he claimed showed
lick of militancy and loyalty to the
union on the part of the workers.

l0gies of the governors commission

bodies of liberals and politicians.

ton stronger than has ever been
done at an I. L. G. w. convention.
Sigman's speech was a combination
of superficial knowledge of the indus
try and warning to the union of the
dangers to the membership which he
protested to see in the anti-class col
liberation policy of the left wing.
left Wing Speaks.
The speeches of Borkovich, lack
and Rubin stressed the growing ma
tional character of the industry and
pointed out the disastrous conse-
quences which the weakened condi.
ton of the union had brot to the
workers.
Hyman smashed the arbitration ar
gument of the machine speakers by
showing that the union was forced to
strike no matter what decision the
arbitration boards rendered.
IF the arbitration board gives a
favorable decision the manufacturers
will not put it in force until we make
them do it by strike. If they give
an unfavorable decision we have to
strike also. The only thing accomp-
lished by arbitration is the democrat
ization Of the membership" said Hy-
man.
Debate Prisoners.
The debate on this section of the
report finished Saturday morning
with Lyman closing for the minor
ity.
Previous to the openign of debate
on the officers report a bitter debate
occurred on a resolution for the re-
lease of political prisoners in all
countries including Soviet Russia.
An amendment to strike Russia from
the list and substitute "all capitalist
countries" was defeated by vote of
156 to 1Os. 81
Support. for the workers who are
on strike against the Metropolitan
Opera company was voted, and all
members of the union are instructed
to boycott this concern.
Much Business Ahead.
A watch was presented to Martin
Ilettl, fraternal delegate from the
{ arman clothing workers.
' Night sessions of the convention
are now in order but 1t is doubtful IL
the business can be concluded before
the first of the week. Only one-thtrd
of the officers report has been de-
bated while the two committees next
