shop nuclei. Our party, on tnat oc-,
casion, reaffirmed its stand and re-
solved Immediately to start the task
of recognizing the party on the basis
of shop nuclei
In our factory there were enough
party members last May to start a
nucleus. We therefore proceeded
with the formation of such shop
nucle6s. Previous to the actual forma-
ton Of the nucleus, we were, as party
members, working as unit in this
factory.
Our union, the Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers which, it is well known,
not only solidly supported LaFollette
and the LaFollette movement, but as
sessed the membership of the union
one dollar each for the LaFollette
campaign. In our shop, however, we,
the party members, put up such a
splendid campaign, that many of the
workers there, who were members of
the Amalgamated Clothing Workers,
refused to pay their LaFollette as
sessment. We succeeded in collecting
$11 among these workers for the
Workers (Communist) Party cam
paign.
After we were organized into a
shop nucleus, we mapped out our
activities. Because of the precarious
position we were in there was at
first difficulty in carrying on intense
activity. In the first place, a general
attack was launched against the par
ty members. With the assistance of
the Jewish Forward and other yellow
sheets our enemies succeeded in
spreading prejudice and antagonism
against the Workers Party and the
Trade Union Educational League.
Naturally our struggle was made more
difficult by that. Two of our members,
as a result of a collaborative frame-up
between the boss and the shop chair
man, lost their jobs. However, we
soon gained three new members.
The conditions in the tailoring in
dustry are very bad. For the past
year, the majority of the workers
have been employed on the average
only half time. In spite of these handi-
caps, we succeeded in selling consid-
cradle literature and tickets for the
various party affairs.

LONDON, September %. The
British government is in sympathy
with the general trend of Chinese
aspirations in the matter of extra

TIE text OF the letter, made public
yesterday by the foreign office, breathes
the same friendly spirit which marked
Mr.. Chamberlain's speech, Friday. AL
though extraterritoriality will not fall
within the delegates province, the
letter said, it was desirable they know
his maJesty's governments attitude.
Reiterating that 1t was the lack of

China which constituted the chief diff

and legal systems, Mr.. Chamberlain

adequate guarantees that reforms

authorized to make will, in fact. be
carried out
The government recognizes" the
statement continues, that consolida-
tfon of unsecured debts is among the
tasks confronting the conference. but
they consider this task should be re-
garded only as a secondary part of
the functions of the conference. The
government, therefore. will not con-
slider the purpose OF the conference
fulfilled unless 1t results in the adop-
tion of measures which will promote
internal peace and secure reforms of
