PiIsudski Shown to
Be Losing Influence

WARSAW, July 22.-Poland's pre-
mier has broken the silence of the
government ia an attempt to outline
Polish policy N an address to parlia-
ment. But the most of his speech
was telling what the government
minister of war, Pilsudski, was not
going to do.
Howls and laughter greeted him
when he said: ut is clearly under
stood that the foreign affairs of Po-
land are managed by the government
and not by the minister of war" This
may mean that the government is de-
flying Pil5udski to usurp its powers
and opens the possibility for him to
revolt anew to show his power or re-
tire from his ambition for more com
plete dictatorship.
Premier Bartel gave a rosy report
on the economic position of Poland,
which failed to inspire the parliament
to support his claim for a vote on all
measures before 1t. The socialists,
whose votes put Pilsudski in power,
voted against the government and
thus indicated that the marshal's po-
sition is weakened.

to his present position-equivalent to
sub-district president in other dis
tricts. The main Zine is the strong
hold of the union in central Penn
sylvania, holding firm even where at
tackled. On a trip up the branch lines
with Cowan, one can see that the fight
there is more intense-the pressure
on the smaller and poorer mines
greater-the workers more desperate
because of less work.
Five Miles Underground.
Much of the Allegheny country is
wooded and wild enough for Davey to
see an occasional deer and wild
pheasant. Highland farms intersperse
the more rugged parts. And at inter
walls, in hollows or on heights, an ugly
mining town with it's stir rows Of
bare coal-grimed company houses. The
tipple and mine entry are foreign,
hfdeous excresences on the green hill
side. Sometimes a long row OF aban-
doned gaping red brick ovens scar the
hill where an old coking plant oper-
ated. And beneath the rolling green
slopes, the trees and fern tangle, the
black, damp passageways Of the mines
reach-sometimes pushing four or
five miles under the countryside.
ForIorn Mining Camps.
The smallest mine villages are most
forlorn. Very few of the small mines
are working, even where union stand
ards have been broken. These little
mine camps seem utterly upconnected
with any outside world, except for the
one-track rain line down which the
coal cars go-when the mine works.
Loaded cars stand on the sidings Of
many OF these little mines-no buyer
for the bituminous even tho produced
at non-union rates. At Dean is such
a mine: James Stineman, son of an
ex-state senator, the operator. The
men took four wage reductions and
still the mine is idle with four full
cars waiting sale.
At FrueaIity Camp.
Frugality looks more than it's name.
The former union mine closed. When
it reopened on a non-union basis at
reduced wages the operators guaran-
teed the miners two years work.
After seven months the mine was
closed again. Only one or two Of the
company houses-hideous, grey frame
structures-now have occupants. A
small bucket mine a few miles beyond
Glasgow operated only three days in
two weeks, two scab workers from the
Sunshine interests Ringtail, where IS
men get four days week at 1917
wages, reported to Cowan when he
stopped them on the road.

front of the present leaders Of the
English trade union movement only
means that the workers are betrayed
to the bourgeoisie. The united front
Of the traitors, of the capitulators and
Of the vacillating leaders must be OPP
posed by the genuine, proletarian
front of the working masses.
The miners strike is in danger!
The chief slogan is: Do not permit
the miners strike to be sabotaged.
The miners strike is not a normal,
usual" economic strike. It's specific
popularity consists in the fact that,
in May, 1925, the miners drew 4,OOO,-
900 other workers with them into the
fight. The fight Of the miners has
already led to a general strike which
Immediately threatened the English
bourgeoisie. The economic import
ance Of the coal dispute is at present
enormously great. This strike is a
trial Of strength between the bour-
geoisie and the proletariat. 1t is OF
tremendous political Importance for
the working class OF the whole world
Those who wish to help the miners
strike must not condone the crime OF
the leaders of the general council, but
must appeal to the broad working
masses and prepare for an extension
of the miners strike by drawing
fresh working class troops into i'm.
mediate participation in the strike.
We say to the English workers: a
fresh betrayal is being prepared. The
miners strike is in danger! Repudi.
ate the hesitating leaders, organize a
real genuine fight of the working
masses against the conservatives who
are preparing to break off relations
with the Soviet Union. We say to
the workers of the whole world: Ur
to, now your strike aid was insult
ficient. The Comintern expressly de-
mands from all sections, all forces
their whole energy for the active sup
port OF the miners. 1t is absolutely
necessary to obtain regular, even il
minimum contributions on behalf OF
the miners from all workers. The ces.
sation Of export of coal to England
must be enforced at any price. The
British miners must be surrounded by
an atmosphere of universal, proletar
ian sympathy and support Before all
however, the workers Of England and
Of other countries must learn the rea
truth regarding the state OF affairs in
the British miners strike.
Act, without losing a minute!
