Germany, under Hindenburg,
has seized upon the excuse of
the sentence to death of three
Germans in Soviet Russia for an
attempt to assassinate Soviet
officials, to ally herself with her
former foe, 'perfidious Albion"
and has sent a pereptory note
to Moscow demanding the re-
lease of the criminals.
France Discusses Situation.
France, whose imperialist interests
are in a crisis, with the Moors slicing
fercely at her African colonies, has
under the Painleve cabinets consider
/ alton an offer from England to join
hands with Britain. Germany Poland
and Roumania in war upon Soviet
Russia.
1t is obvious that the excuse Of
Soviet interference" in China is not
the entire reason for Britain's acts. as
long before the upheaval in China be-
gan, Austen Chamberlain, British for
eign minister, offered an alliance
against the Soviet Union to France
under the Herriot government.
Soviet Indignation Is Rising.
Soviet Russia, on behalf of the
workers and peasants of the Soviet
Union, are indignant that Britain in
sists upon violation of international
law SO flagrantly as to try before a
foreign mixed court set up in Shang-
hal, China, citizen of Soviet Russia.
Soviet Russia long ago gave up the
extra-territorial privileges in the old
treaties forced out of China at the
point of bayonets, and in so doing
agreed that Soviet citizens should be
tried before Chinese courts and un-
der Chinese laws
But Soviet Russia did not agree that
Soviet citizens should be seized upon

No Division Between New York and
Chicago.

when wire arrived from Chicago
telling the workers in New York that
their Chicago brothers are fighting to
prevent the union from destruction.
Here there is no question if the work
ers in New York city have the same
interests as those of Chicago and vice
versa.
The workers readily see that any
thing which AFFECTS their New York
brothers aflsfts them also. There is
no chance Tor the enemies of the
workers to idrive division between
the workers of Chicago and those of
New York.
Glass Viewpoint Seen Essential.
Neither can any unionist of Chicago
deny that broad class viewpoint is
necessary in the labor movement in
addition to the narrow trade issues in
one union or industry. The left wing

Past Mistakes Reviewed.
In reviewing the Communist poll
cies in the trade unions as applied in
actual life, the mistakes made in ap-
plication in certain unions and the
general lack of application in the
steel workers union, many important
lessons were drawn.
1t was made clear to the delegates
present that the tendency often mani
tested to submerge the left wing is
sues in order to quietly gain Offices,
could have nothing but serious conse-
quences for the left wing and for the
labor movement in general, as particu-
larly the Communist must put for
ward these issues and lead THE fight
for more militant policies.
Failure to do so can only Ieau to
serious right wing deviations. How
ever, any general tendency to minimize
the Importance of Communist trade
union activities and the necessary or
ganizational basis becomes equally
dangerous. Such mistakes are most
often made by the erroneous concep-

BIG STRIKE
OF PATTERN
MAKERS IS ON
Hits JObbing Houses of
Chicago

A strike of the Pattern Makers in
volving all pattern makers in the job
bling Industry in Chicago and vicinity
was called by the Pattern Makers AS
ISOLATION of Chicago and vicinity on
Friday, July Ord. The strike is 100
per cent effective and was called to
enforce the union or closed shop, a
minimum wage of SIPS an hour, for
the s-hour day and 44-hour week.
The strike was first called in the
Noback Shop, located at Van Buren,
and Clinton streets. The Pattern
Makers Union tried to obtain a con-
ference with the bosses to discuss
these demands.
Bosses Refuse to Talk.
The bosses association called it's
meeting and fatty turned down con-
ference with the union. Thereupon
the union, the Pattern Makers Asso-
citation of Chicago and vicinity retail
ated by issuing a cali for strike
which Will effect the entire iobbing in
dustry.
At the meeting of the union last
Tuesday. June 80. there was the Iarg-
est turnout of members in a year
The local unanimously voted to levy
an assessment of $500 per member on
those on the job in the manufacturing
industry. The spirit of the members
of the union and strikers was high.
They are out to win the strike in spite
of all obstacles and to teach the
bosses a lesson.
Come Back Strong.
Four years ago, in 1921, the pattern
makers of Chicago struck and lost.
Since then they have been repairing
the damage and today they are COM
ing back 100 per cent strong and de-
termined to win the strike. Prior to
the present strike, attempts at con-
ferences were made by the union but
they were unsuccessful. The union
therefore girded itself for a deter
mined battle against the attempts of
the bosses association to smash their
union and the conditions they have
won thru many years of struggle.
Communists On Firing Line.
Among the strikers are a number
of members of the Workers Com
munist) Party who are taking promi-
net and leading parts in the strike.
The headquarters of the striking
pattern makers are at 119 Throop
street. The strikers are all on the
job picketing and their morale is high.

AS WE SEE 1T.
BY 7. J. o,ELAHERTY

DRoFEssoR wooDHEAD, the
British gentleman who essayed to
enlighten the students at Chicago
University on the situation in China,
blamed the Chinese for all their
own troubles. This was to be ex-
pected. 1t is quite believeable, that
had the Chinese workers submitted to
the exploitation of the British and
Japanese enslavers and took all the
indignities heaped upon them without
a murmur, John Bull would have let
well enough alone.
EoR some reason that the British
4 can never understand, or any
other imperialist for that matter, sub
ject peoples never properly appreciate
the efforts made by their benefactors
to better their condition and lift them
up to the pinnacle of civilization oc-
cupied by their masters. We have
the Hindus, who according to the
British are yet in state of political
and cultural infancy, always rebelling
against their benevolent rulers.
THE same is true of the Egyptians
4 tho the British have so far man
aged to hold them down by means Of
guns, etc. An occasional slaughter of
Egyptians is oAtirely in harmony with
the ethics of christianity The Chin

them), managed to get along before
the British empire was founded. They
increased and multiplied at least, in
Rooseveltian fashion. Their god was
not up to the scratch in the ways of
piracy, like the British god, so the
Chinese found themselves sucking
opium, forced on them by John Bull,
for the greater glory of god. Out of
the profits of the opium trade the
British were able to hire missionaries
and endow churches. Opium was to
the Anglican church what the saloons
IN America were to the Catholic
church.
CHINESE misrule is caused by the
~ efforts of the Chinese masses to
get rid of foreign rule. In other words
there would not be any trouble in
China if the masses worked sixteen
hours day, suffered the floggings of
the brutal factory bosses in silence,
and in general allowed the foreigner
capitalists to walk over them. In
stead of being a great liberator and
Ievolutionist, DIR. Sun Vat Sen was a
great scoundrel, according to Mr..
Woodhead.
WELL, the Chinese don't think so.
Mr. Woodhead. and when the
Chinese give the British taxmasters
the tip of the boot or better still the
point of the sword out of their coun-
try, they will owe more gratitude to
Sun Vat Sen than to any other single
individual in the history of China.
That Suns memory is hated by the
British is the best testimony to his
character. British propagandists are

arrest.
Friends of the scion Immediately got busy. In
kilograms to newspapers they protested loudly
and ~vehemently, declaring Stanfields arrest an
outrage" and virtually demanding that the
charge against him be dropped. No, they were
not witnesses to the incident, but they just knew
the senator was being made a victim of some fell
plot, political or otherwise, to ruin him.
Out of the maze of charges and counter charges,
a few facts appear. The policemen declares that
the senator was drunk and created such a dis
turbance tina. interference with his activities be-
came necessary. Mr.. Stanfield denies this, and
asserts further that his arrest was entirely un-
provoked.
We don't presume to say that Senator Stan
field was either drunk or disorderly, but it does
seem a little peculiar that an officer Of the law
would, without any prOVOcatiOn, invite trouble by
arresting so prominent a man. And if Policeman
Edens' charges are true, is there any reason why
the senator should not be arrested? Members of
congress are not above the laW-in fact, it seems
to us they are under a double obligation to observe
it, and should endeavOr to set an example worthy
of their political and social position.
One of the most serious plants of a great num-
Der of people in this country is that too much
favoritism is shown in the matter of law enforce
ment. zone law for the rich man and another
for the poor man., is the cry Of those who criticize
our legislatures and our courts. We admit that
this grave charge has, in the past, had Something
more than a soap box foundation, and it is OBJ
vious that such determinations must be done
away with if respect for law is to be engendered
and perpetuated.
A United States senator, if drunk and disorder
ly, is on no higher level than a hobo, likewise
drunk and disorderly. If the latter, in the inter.
ests Of public quietude and safely, should be ar
rested, then the former deserves the same treat

LEWIS AND CLARK MEMORIAL

Initial plans for the erection of a memorial inn
mOrtalizing the achievements Of the Lewis and
Clark expedition of 18O4-O6 were discussed at a
meeting in Helena recently of the commission
authorized by tn. last legislature to obtain pro-
posals, estimate the cost, and report in 1927.
This is indeed a worthy project. While the
names of Lewis and Clark will live.in history long
after the memorial has crumbled into dust, yet
it is fitting that we give tangible, visible express
sion of our veneration for those two brave, re
s~ourceful men who dared death in order that the
territory in which we live might be. explored anC
opened to settlement.
Montana owes a'great debt to Lewis and Clark
a debt that generations of the future viii realiz'
even more than do we. Those men long az,
crossed the great Dark Valley and the oppOrtunitl
to reward them is not ours. The least we can d
is to show the world, by the erection Of a fitting
memorial, that We have not forgotten their in
trepid spirit, the sacrifices they made, and tn
hardships they endured.
It is to be hoped that the commission e~ntruste
with this duty viii function h~armoniously an
, efficiently and evolve plans for a memorial ths
viii be worthy of the spirit which animated tW
of the greatest explorers Of al time.

A FORWARD STEP

Ever DESTROYS of giving more and better service
to its readers and advertisers, The Courier has
taken another forward step-a step that places
it in a class by itself, so far as Montana weeklies
are concerned.
This issue comprises 16 pages, as compared
with the IL heretofore printed. The expansion in
size makes The Courier the largest newspaper Of
its kind in the state. It's publishers believe it is
already one of the best, and will strive diligently
to make it better.
The four pages just added contain features
which will appeal to a wide variety Of tastes.
Prominent among them are numerous articles, OF
both a romantic and an historical nature, that
undoubtedly will be read with great interest by
pioneers, sons and daughters Of pioneers, and
others who are interested in Montana events OF
many years ago. A pictorial service of high
merit has also been arranged for.
These are only a few of the things Of an inter
esting and instructive nature that The Courier is
planning to provide for its readers. And as reader
interest grows, the value of The Courier from
the advertisers standpoint grows also.
