The heart Of a burro is kind, his

Because he knew their loyalty and
patience, Mr.. Leaning decided to use
burros for long trip, a few years

ness in search of health. He wanted
TO travel paths that led over peaks and
through lonesome wastes. So he
bought the two little burros, loaded
them down and "hit the TRAIL

were not much company, but they new

burned at night, there would be two
pals there anyway-twO partners TO

TRAIL LEADS TO S. A.
At last the trip was over. When
the end was reached, the long trail of
seven months had led them from New
Mexico to San Antonio. Mr.. Leaning
went home. He couldn't take his

well cared for.
Mr.. Leaning intended to return this

LEGION
WANTS GOOD ROAD
TO GRAND CANYON

That American Legion posts of
Arizona will unite to work for
good roads to the Grand Canyon is
the gist of letter received this
week by officers of the local Le-
gion post from Col. A. J. Dougherty
Department Commander of the Ar
izona American Legion. This agi-
tation has resulted from action TAX
en- by Cedar City, Utah, which
town is using the Grand Canyon,
under the title Grand Canyon of
the Colorado" as a drawing card in
their publicity.
Col. Dougherty has been in COM
munication with all Legion posts
Of the state, calling on all to back
the movement for good road to
the canyon, and publicity regarding
it. A controversy some time ago
regarding the proper name of the
canyon resulted in the decision
that it is properly the Grand Can
yon of Arizona, and the misuse of
the name and it's use by towns out
side Of the state for publicity pur-
poses has aroused the Colonel to
the necessity for cooperation in
exploiting our greatest natural
wonder

in common with other posts in Ar
izona, is behind the project, and

motto: ga Good Road to the

Mrs. Keeney Says
Is Well Qualified
For Co. Recorder

Since her announcement as
candidate for the Democratic nom
ination as county Recorder, made
some time ago, Mrs. Mabel Downs
Keeney, Of Winslow, this week said
she has been receiving much en-
couragement from her friends thru
out the county.
Mrs. Keeney has lived in Wins
low the past 16 years and is the
widow of George o. (Dude) Downs,
former Santa Fe conductor, running
out of Winslow.
Relative to her qualifications
Mrs. Keeney said her experience
gained during her residence and
positions held in .Winslow will
qualify her for the position of
County Recorder. For two and a
half years she worked as car clerk
for the Santa Fe, later as book
keeper for the Carduff Transfer
Company and following that for the
A & B Cafe here. At present she
is bookkeeper for the Daze Trans
fer Company, and by reason of her
experience in the clerical positions
she has held she feels that she is
well qualified to hold the position
of County Recorder, and promises,
if elected, to give the office all Of
her attention and energy and will
appreciate the support given her
by the voters. ADV

REDSKINS AGAIN
LOSE TO GIBSON
MINERS, IA TO 7

against the fast Gibson Miners on
the latter's diamond at Gomerco.
N. M, last Sunday, the Redskins
average took one of those downhill
drops that are so familiar to the
Frenchmans' Franc. Having won
five, lost six and played one tie
game, the riptrack Indian nine can
boast of an average of only .455.
The contest, which is reported to
have been saturated with thrills.

Second Defeat OF
Season Handed to
Winslow Merchants
By GEORGE LAWS

For the second time this year
the redoubtable Winslow Mer-
chants were given a drubbing by
a team of Redskins when Sunday,
on the local field, they took the
small end of 81 count in fracas
with an invading team from Leupp.
Strangely enough, the two defeats
by Indian teams are the only set
backs the Merchants have had, al
though one of the wallopings was
avenged by merciless pasting

time ago.

The Achievements of the Party ;

The Party Leadership In the Work
ers' Struggles.
In surveying the work of the party
during the last year thru which it has
made these advances, it's leadership
in the struggles of the workers for
higher standard of wages and i'm
proved working conditions must be
given first place. The outstanding fact
of the labor movement during the last
year is, that with one exception, every
important, militant mass struggle of
the workers during this period has
been under Communist leadership.
THE Passaic strike is the most strik-
L ing example of these struggles.
Its Importance consists not in the fact
of a ten-month struggle of these work
ers against all the forces which the
capitalists could bring to bear against
them. The Passaic strike is the first
great uprising of unorganized, highly
exploited workers in the great ma
chine industry of this country in many
years Since the great industrial
struggles of 1912, Lawrence, Patter-
son, McKees Rock, and similar spon-
taneous strikes of unorganized work
ers lead by the l. w W., there has
been no movement of Importance
among these workers. Passaic is the
first new sign of life and readiness
to enter into the struggle against the
capitalists among these workers, and
therefore its Importance to the labor
movement of this country.
1t is no secret that our party initia-
ted the movement among the Passaic
workers. The skeleton organization
was formed under the leadership of
the party. Our party furnished the
organizational forces, the program for
the struggle and was the dynamic
force which supported and lead strike
in all its phases.
The Passaic strike has not remained
a struggle of the 10000 workers of
Passaic alone. Thru the relief cam
paign developed thru the support of
the party, broad masses of workers
were brought to the support of the
Passaic strikers. The strikers have
fought the strike on the picket lines,

American capitalists, Is the Workers
(Communist) Party.
The Flight for Protection Of the
III Foreign Born.
TT was our party which first took up
4 the fight against the exception
laws thru which it is proposed to
register, photograph, flngerprint and
regulate the movements from place to
place Of the foreign born workers.
Since these laws were first proposed
in 1923 the party has repeatedly TAX
ing the initiative to mobilize the labor
movement against them. 1t is the fact
that mass movement was organized
against these laws which has thus far
prevented their enactment into law,
with the dire consequences resulting
therefrom in. gripping the efforts OF
the foreign born workers for organiza-
ton in unions and participation in
struggles Of labor against the capital
lists.
The movement for the protection of
the foreign born developed in a broad
er form during the last year than
previously. The national conference
held in Washington in May showed
that workers organizations with a
membership of four hundred thousand
had been drawn into this struggle
fighting with out party against these
laws.
The Campaign for Labor Party
THE party thru out the slogan of "a

Elections" early in the election cam
paign this year. making the election
campaign part of the struggle to again
bring to the fore independent political
action by the workers thru the forma-
ton Of labor party. While the move
ment for labor party has not taken
on the volume of 1924. the party
has definite achievements to its credit
in this field.
In Pennsylvania and Ohio local la
Dor parties were formed in a number
Of places. In Massachusetts the party
participated in the labor party con-
ference thru which committee of

munist) Party was set up to carry for
ward the work of forming a labor
party in that state. In Minnesota the
party influence in the farmer-labor
party is again increasing, because it
came to front as the exponent and de-
fender Of Independent political action
by the workers and farmers against
the efforts Of the petty bourgeoisie
leader within the farmer-labor party
to betray the farmer-labor party thru
movement back to the democratic
party.
Persistent Work viii Bring Results.
THESE achievements of the party
are not spectacular. The influence
and leadership of Communist Party
is not build thru spectacular methods,
but by steady, persistent work in the.
labor movement. The gains the party
has made show that its policies and
tactics are those which are gradually
broadening its influence and winning
the support of new groups Of workers.
They show that hard work in support
of a correct Communist program will
bring results for the party even in a
labor movement, which in a period
of imperialist development and under
its influence is generally moving to
the right They show, that while the
official labor movement is developing
in the direction of class collaboration
there is at the same time left de-
velopment among those workers who
are not sharing in the privileges OF the
aristocracy of labor.
The party achievements in broaden
ing its influence can be made greater
by modifying more of the strength OF
the party in support of its campaigns.
The central committee resolution cor
rectly declares:
"The party must mobilize for full
er use of its strength in applying the
policies and tactics thru which It
has. made these gains, and in taking
up of its immediate program to
build the party and extend its in
fIuence among the masses. Such
mobilization will bring even greater
gains than are to be recorded for the
past year.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1926-11-30

but behind them have stood the half
million workers who were modified
in their support thru the relief cam
paign. Thru this broadening of the
struggle Passaic has become a symbol
of militant struggle thruout the labor
movement of the whole country.
The strike has not remained only
an industrial struggle, but thru the
party initiative 1t has been developed
as political issue, which has been
raised even in congress.
THE Furriers' strike, under Com
munist leadership, is another ex-
ample of the achievements of the
party The Furriers' strike was won
in the face Of the efforts at sabotage
and betrayal in which the American
Federation Of Labor participated. Il
stands out as the first strike involving
thousands of workers which has been
won in recent years. The l. L. G. W.
U. strike in New York City, which has
just resulted in a partial settlement
and partial victory for the workers be-
longs to the same category.
What other struggle of a major
character, involving thousands of
workers has been fought during the
last year except these strikes under
Communist leadership which have
given new hope and courage to the
workers because of the militant char
acter of the struggle?
There has been only one such strug-
gle, the anthracite strike, resulting in
a debacle for the workers. The party
played its part in the anthracite
strike, but here it was not yet strong
enough to wrest the leadership from
the reactionary Lewis machine and
secure the adoption of its program for
throwing the whole strength of the
anthracite miners against the coal
barons.
Through it's part in the struggles
the prestige of the party among the
workers has increased. There is a
growing sentiment, springing out Of
the record of the party in these strug-
giles, that the only living, virile force
in the labor movement today, which
dares challenge the great power of the
