from foreign interests for a time, the
excuse can be made that as an alter

taxes upon what they buy.

French Now Realize the
Real Purpose Behind the
Coming of the Yanks"
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

Wet Republics, when they came into
power, in November, 1917, told the
workers OF the rest of Europe and
Of the world. But sufficient numbers
of them, at that time, would not
listen and thru united action make
it possible to throw OFF the yoke of
all capitalist oppressors. That real
ization is now dawning, not only in
France, but in other countries. 1t
becomes the keynote even of the
bourgeois press in all European
countries.
One of the first big outbreaks of
anti-American feeling was shown In
the demonstration of the crippled
war veterans in Paris, protesting
against the terms Of the Mellon
Berenger arrangement for the settle
ment of the French war debt, most
of which was incurred after the war
to bolster French militarism and
carry on the imperialist attack
against the OONl0C OulOu.
There is a statue of George Wash
ington in Paris holding aloft
mighty sword. One of the French
war veterans drew a caricature of
the statue, with the American dollar
sign pinioned on the sword. That's
a great change from the time that
BENJAMIN Franklin came to France
seeking sympathy and support for
the first American revolution.
An echo comes from Italy with the
fascist organ, IL Tevere, declaring
that:
Things cannot go on thus. The
Americans are sowing to the right
and left hatred and a desire for
vengeance. The right to enslave
whole continent is not to be secured
even on the battlefield, with risk of
life. They must think it can be ac-
CURED behind the teller's window
of bank, manipulating loans at so
much per cent.
1.-THE Americans have their eyes
full of figures. Their ears are abb
sorbed with the clicking of adding
machines. They have a knife UP
their sleeves, namely their most
powerful dollar, which can crush 20
Europeans. They live in a. state of
superb obliviousness which is aston
ishing and offensive.
1--WE cannot foresee the future, but
we can read in the hearts of the men
of this old Europe, written in letters
of blood, condemnation of that GER
tain slavery which has the dollar as
its symbol"
Thus the Italian fascist daily can
speak freely. Mussolinfs tyranny
has already been granted cancella-
,tion of most Of the war debt, and re-
ceived a loan of $100,000,000 from
Morgan. 1t speaks the jealousy of
Mussolini who would like to see him
self, not Morgan, the Emperor of
the world.
These European attacks on Wall
Street and Washington serve an ex-
cellent purpose in that they reveal
to the American worker and farmer
masses the real nature Of their
boosted democratic" government
and exposes to view the financial
power that dominates it. Only Amer
lean labor uniting with European
labor can overthrow this dollar ty-
ranny that seeks to enslave all man.

DOR the third time within recent
years the French are joining in
a reception to "The Yanks," as they
have learned to dub all Americans.
The first time was in 1917 when a
million or more of American youth
were rushed to France and into the
trenches, presumably, as the French
thought, to aid them defeat the Ger
mans. They were welcomed.
Then the second time the late
President Woodrow Wilson sailed
with his retinue and his IA points,"
but since he permitted the French
politicians to frame the Versailles
peace, his coming was overlooked.
Now for the third time the French
witness a new invasion of their
country. But now only for the first
time do they realize the significance
of the first two invasions by 1.-THE
Yanks," as the advance guard Of the
international bankers Of Wall Street
arrives. The reception given these
visitors is not so welcome. In fact
1t is quite hostile.
Day after day the newspapers pub
lished the casualty lists containing
the names of the dead among the
first arrivals in France. They we're
heroes" to France, at the time, but
now mock funeral ceremonies are
being held at their graves in Paris.
They died only for Morgan.
Wilson's IA points" were but
camouflage for Colonel E. M. House,
Wall Streets agent, who always
stood at Wilson's side advising him
how to diplomatize for the dollar,
even as he has done for the two
succeeding republican presidents,
Harding and Coolidge, down to the
present time.
After the nine years Of prepare
ton by these two previous dollar
crusades into Europe, the unmasked
agents of Wall Street now make
their appearance. Here they are:
]. Pierpont Morgan, Jr., himself
son and heir of the founder of the
House of Morgan, credited with
being the head of world finance.
Andrew J. Mellon, secretary of the
United States treasury, Pittsburgh
banker and acclaimed the third rich
est man in the world, coming next
to Rockefeller and Ford.
Charles Steele, one Of the partners
of ]. Pierpont Morgan & Co.
s. Gilbert Parker, American agent
general of PREPARATIONS under the
Dawes plan.
Benjamin Strong, governor OF the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
In addition there is a retinue not
only of lesser financiers from Wall
Street, but also of smallfry political
agents from the government at
Washington, who have found it con-
venient to have vacations" in Eu-
rope at the present time.
This little. coterie is not as numer-
Gus as the aggregation Of "Yanks"
that went over in 1917, nor is it as
communicative as the Wilson ex-
petition in 1919, but it is the. most
powerful. 1t was in the interests of
this crowd, and the social order for
which they stand, that the United
States entered the war. Wilson did
its bidding. That is what the work
ers and peasants of the Union of So

WRANGELL GIRL HEARD OVER RADIO FROM A
 STATION IN ILLINOIS
c. c, Mundy of This City Hears Mooseheart Girls Glee Club of Which Miss Gertrude Osborn of Wrangell, Alaska, Is a Member.

c. c. Mundy, one of Wrangells numerous radio fans, reports hay ing been entertained by a musical program broadcasted from Moose heart, Illinois.
 The program from this distant station was particularly fascinating to Mr. Mundy owiwng to the an- nouneement preceding the program which mentioned Miss Gertrude os- born of Wrangell, Alaska, as being a regular performer over Moose heart station WJJD. She is a mem Der of the Girls Glee Club. which is on the air every Friday evening
 George Lotz of Wrangell who visited Mooseheart last year states that music is a major feature of the curriculum of the Mooseheart school Every child is given a com plete and thorough training in all branches of music. Nearly every boy and girl, at this Loyal Order of Moose School, who is ten years of age and older, is receiving training and instruction on one or more of the 200 different musical instru- ments - wind. string, reed and pi- ano.
 All children receive intensive training and instruction in theory and harmony and interpretation of music. Part of the school work is studying history of the pieces they play. This enables them to play pieces with rare sense of their par ticuular quality and style, tracing the design. summoning the mood and awakening the emotion the composer sought.
 One of the many hobbies of Sec retary of Labor James J. Davis. Di- rector-General of the Moose Order and founder of Mooseheart is music.

 Convicted
 Conspiracy

JUNEAU, Feb. 22.-After de- q hours, the jury on Sunday returned a verdict of guilty against Ghas. Hoxie, charged with conspiracy to violate the liquor laws of the United States. This was his second trial as the jury in the first trial failed to reach an agreement.
 The case was submitted to the jury Saturday night and Judge T. NJ. Reed allowed the jurors that night to go to hotel. They started deliberating again yesterday morn ing and at II o'clock reported that they had reached an agreement: The case against the other defend ants probably will be tried in a short time although no date has been set yet fer the trial.
 Under the law, Hoxie is subject to d penalty of not more than two years in the penitentiary and fine of $1O.O00.
 In his instructions to the jury, Judge Reed told the jurors that proof of verbal or written agree ment was not necessary. If the jury found from the evidence that the defendant was conscious of con- spring to violate the law, he would be guilty.
 The defense has five days in which to file a motion for a new trial
