of Miners Wage Bill
Means a Rebellion

LONDON. England. April 20. -
The defeat OF the miners minimum
wage bill by the combined reactionary
parties is termed by +. d. Varley, a
moderate, "a direct incentive to revo.
lutlonary action" The bill, which
was rejected 2OS to 143, would have
guaranteed minimum wage Of from
10 to ~ shillings day-about three
pounds (s14.3D a week. The miners
awaited the fate OF this bill before
mobilizlng their economic power to
obtain a living wage. The rejection,
according TO Secy. A. j. Cook, Miners

NCOuLluueu from rage -
Vat Sen, held on Friday, April 10, in
the Painters Hall. -
The Invitation was accepted and a
speaker representing the Kouming-
tang as we'll as representatives Of
several other organizations and
large number of Chinese participated
in the memorial meeting, informing
ling with members of the Workers
Party and sympathizers in the large
gathering and exchanging friendly
greetings.
Lew Kay Speaks for Chinese
The hall was decorated for the oc-
casion with red and black, Chinese
lanterns and large life size picture
Of Sun Vat Sen on the platform.
Lew Kay, the Chinese spokesman,
in most eloquent, forceful language,
narrated the struggles of the Chinese
under the yoke of the Manchu dy-
nasty up to the time when Sun Vat
Sen decided to consecrate his life to
the liberation of the Chinese from the
tyrannical rule of the Manchus. He
then wildly described the heroic
struggle and sacrifice Of Sun Vat Sen,
his serene lifelong devotion to the
cause. His exile, bounding by the
Manchu tyrants, imprisonment and
escape. His conquest and victory;
the betrayal by Yuan Shat Kai that
led to the formation Of the Southern
Republic. And finally his continuous
battle for freedom to the very end
Of his life.
That the struggle was not in vain,
said Kay, is proven by the large and
ever increasing number of organized
workers on the economic and political
field since the overthrow of the Machu
dynasty, such as never existed be-
fore. He enumerated large number
of strikes taking place everywhere
thus showing the progress made. The
masses are claiming and asserting
themselves more and more. That is
due to the life work Of and sincere
devotion of Sun Vat Sen to the cause
of liberation. He concluded by thank
ing the meeting for the Kuomintang.
Stanley ]. Clark speaker for the
Workers Party in a very forceful
speech eulogized the work and life Of
Sun Vat Sen whom he said was not
a pacifist, as the capitalist apologists
are trying to portray, but a militant
and revolutionary of the first magni-
tude. He then elucidated why the
Communists are concentrating the
death of Sun Vat Sen, who was
nationalist only in so far as the ac-
complishment of the liberation Of
China from foreign Imperialism was
concerned, but in aspiration an in
ternationalist. He then read the mes
sage Of Sun Vat Sen on his death bed
to the Koumintang and the procla-
nation of the Communist Interna-
tional.
Adopt Message Of Coincidence
Aaron Fisherman presided at the
memorial meeting. At the conclusion
Of the memorial meeting a message Of
coincidence and sympathy to be sent
to the Koumintang, Pekin, was un-
animously adopted.
The Chinese who held memorial
meeting on Sunday afternoon April
IL to commemorate the death of Sun
Vat Sen, extended the following invi-
tation to the Workers Party: Work

SOME OF THE NEWS OF THE
WEEK
President CooIdge's Inauguration;
Senator Deneen Amply Qualified;
Louisiana High Courts De-
cision
By Charles Stewart, Jr.

An unusual coincidence marks the
inauguration of President Calvin Coo
1idge. He had just laid down the task
mapped out by the late President
Warren 6. Harding and again takes
up the new. duty handed to him by
millions Of voters in November, thus
he becomes the actor upon his own
stage to direct his policies in the sim
plest forms possible to meet the gov
ernment's every emergency.
The day was ideal and the Presi-
dents mind drifted back to the first
lesson in the first chapter Of the gospel
Of St. John in the favorite Bible Of
his grandfather. The gospel begins
thus: TN the beginning was the word
and the word was with God, and the
word was God"
The hundred thousand hearers
watched and applauded the sentiments
expressed out Of the mouth Of the
chieftain Of the nation. This New
England farm boy from the old marble
state Of Vermont adopted by the COM
monwealth of Massachusetts,, guided
by the hand of Mr.. Frank w. Storms
and Senator Butler stands today as the
most conspicuous figure in govern
ment life of the world.
Since the inaugural address Of Lin
coin, there has never been delivered
more plainly constructed concrete
status in simple form Of the duties
Of the citizens irregardless Of parties.
Imparting to them what their duties
are to the government Of the nation,
improving markedly on the advance
ment on the indications Of the en-
forcement Of the law is a practical and
an evenly measured, well balanced
form to all citizens in every section
equally and alike.
The President cites in part:
we need not concern ourselves "
the rights Of property if We viii fully
observe the rights Of persons"
Those who want their rights re-
spected under the Constitution and the
law, ought to set example themselves
Of observing the Constitution and the
law
We could, with profit, be less sec
tiOnai and more national in our
thought"

To whether many 81 their citizens were
white or colored.
The judicial decision handed down
By Chief Justice White was remark
able from the fact that there was not
a dissenting opinion and it appears to
the writer that it is more than the
apex Of audacity for this Insignificant
tribunal, absolutely out of harmony
with the decisions of the Supreme
Court OF the United States to pass
upon such decision.
The Negro citizens Of the nation
should offer for service their best legal
minds to aid in the defeating Of this
nefarious rendition. If this decision
is made to stand it will be an entire
reversal of the unanimous decision of
the Supreme Court Of the United
States.
There is but two questions at issue,
the right to purchase, and the right
to live in the property purchased or
rented with the full and honest pro-
lection Of the law.

Atlanta, Ca, Especial to The Broad
Axl.-In seeking an anicable solution
Of their problems Of race relations, the
American people are doing the world
a service Of greatest importance, ac-
cording to Secretary Kenneth Mac
lehman, of the Missionary Conference
Of Great Britain and ireland, who is
now in the United States studying the
interacial situation and the status Of
Negro education in this country. At
ter inquiring carefully into the Inter-
racial Movement in the South, at its
headquarters here, Mr.. Maclennan
said:
You Americans are doing much
more important thing than you realize,
one which has significance not for
America alone, but for the whole
world. The twelve million Negroes in
this country are but a small part Of
the worlds colored population and the
relation Of the two races here is only
a segment Of worldwide problem OF
racial attitudes. Great Britain alone is
dealing with vastly larger native
population in Africa and with some
three hundred million inhabitants Of
India.
'The best minds among the British
people are earnestly seeking the right
solution Of this tangled web Of race
relations" continued DR.. Maclennan.
They are looking hopefully to Amer
lea where the problem seems to Be
clearing up through mutual efforts to
promote understanding, sympathy and
helpfulness between the races. You
may feel encouraged, therefore, to 60
forward with your efforts" he con
cluded, Seeing that they mean 50
much to millions Of people in other
lands.o
While in the South, Mr.. Mac1ennan
visited Tuskegee Institute and several
Of the Negro colleges in Atlanta and
expressed himself greatly pleased with
the educational progress the race is
making in this country.

with news items and by means of edi-
torials, written by the best available
editorial writers, revealed the eminent
qualifications of the late Senator Nc
Cormick, thus the nation is waiting to
see the accomplishments of his sue
cessor during the hours of the day
and work.
We make no mistake in saying that
the new Senator is fully qualified to
fill any emergency that may arise in
the senate of the United States and to
subserve the best interest of Illinois
and the nation. He is a scholastic stu
dent in every branch Of law and will
soon become one of the leaders of the
Senate. He moves with caution and
when the occasion shall arise that will
make it necessary for him to speak
upon any important question in the in
terest Of the cause of the nation or the
state, the people will find that he is
an intellectual giant. His manner can
be best described as the late Col. In
gersoll described the intellectual quail
tiles Of Senator Conklin, Of New York
when he spoke Of the intellectually Of
the hexibility Of his needs.
Time will prove to the hushed ones
that he is in the class Of Senator
George F. Edmunds Of Vermont, and
Senator John G. Spooner Of Wiscon-
sin, who furnished the actual brain
matter in their time for the nation.
Illinois is proud today to give to the
nation man who is equally balanced
upon every question that requires the
thought of well surveyed legal mind.
No doubt, in the course OF time, the
great agricultural west will present
his claims for presidency of the United
States.
W. note Win no little surprise that
the Supreme Court of Indiana has
passed upon city ordinance establish
ing residential district, making sepre-
gated lines. The case comes under
peculiar circumstances brought about
over duplex house.
The point at issue was as to whether
white man could own house. live in
one side Of it and rent the other side
to Negroes. This decision is in direct
violation Of decision handed down

point in this case is how it IS possible
that under the admitted statements in
