GENERAL COUNCIL
CANNOT COVER UP,
SAYS The PRAVDA
Compliments Will Not
Serve for Deeds
Especial 70 The Daily WORKER

MOSCOW, Aug. 1S (By Mail) To
days leading article from the Pravda,
What Do the Workers Expect from
the Anglo-Russian Committee" points
out that the article OF the so-called
"left.wingers," Hicks and Purcell, in
"Trade Union Unity" is designed TO
cover UP the traces Of the treachery
Of the General Council, which re-
Gently approved of the tactics of the
British delegation to the Anglo-Rus.
sian committee. Purcell and Hicks
are making compliments to the Rus
sian workers in order to excuse their
own strike-breaking attitude and their
attempt to break up the Anglo-Russian
committee.
Deeds Wanted--Not Words.
Two years ago the reformists of the
British General Council we're com
PEELED under the pressure of the work
ers to assist in the creation of the
Anglo-Russian committee. The same
pressure of the working masses now
forces them to say honeyed words Of
the Anglo-Russian committee. But
we don't want honeyed words; we
want, just as the British workers
want, deeds. The Anglo-Russian COM
mittee cannot be maintained by words,
but only by the support of the fight
ing masses.
We expect the Anglo-Russian COM
mittee to commence Immediately a
campaign of support for the fighting
British miners. We expect the COM
mittee to announce its opinion con-
corning the import of strike-breaking
coal into Great Britain to break the
miners struggle.
What Of Amsterdam
We expect it to give its opinion con-
corning the usurious interest demand
ed by certain sections of the Amster-
dam International as a condition for
granting loans to assist the fighting
and starving miners.
We expect the committee to give its
opinion of the attempt being prepared
by the conservative government to
smash the trades unions. The article
COAIAuOCos
Either a real policy Of class soli-
darity will be finally carried out or we
shall experience a defeat Of the Brit
ish miners and following upon 1t I'M
avoidably an offensive Of capitalism
not only in Great Britain, but also in
all other countries against the work
ing class.
General Council Responsible.
1.-THE responsibility for such devel
opment would be mostly due to the
General Council of the British Trades
Union Congress, not by any means to
the British workers, who have shown
their will to fight. The coming SEES
sion of the Anglo-Russian committee
must give an answer to this question. -

Wants Big Estates.
Coolidge, in a conversation at Paul
Smiths not long ago, promised Har-
vey Firestone, Jr., to work for the
establishment Of proper conditions in
the Philippines for rubber growing.
Firestone pointed out that one of the
first steps would be the changing of
the land law permitting the holding
of tracts Of land larger than $500
acres, and that Filipino independence
was intmical to the interests Of the
American rubber growers.
1t is also pointed out here that Coo
lidge has not changed his complete
support Of Governor-General Wood as
expressed in his letter to Speaker
Roxas, of the Filipino house of repre-
sentatives, when he intellectually
upheld the general in his suppression
Of the Filipinos. That he favors the
generals present move Of vetoing the
right Of the Filipinos to express their
wish on the question of independence
Is the belief upheld by the long series
Of reactionary moves against the Fill
Pine independence movement taken
by the president.
MANILA, P. 1.-The Philippine
Herald and other daily papers in
Manila carry protests against the
frame-up by Governor-General Wood
and Carmi Thompson in Mindanao and
Jolo to give support to the Bacon bill.
1t is charged here that Wood de-
liberately organized as many of the
Moros as he could coerce to demon
strate for secession from the northern
group Of islands.
But Few Traitors.
Tho out Of population Of over
100000 he was able to rally only
1900 demonstrators, cables from the
United States show that the press has
been giving these occurrences promi-
nence over the vast mass movement
for Filipino independence that is or
ganized thruout the entire Islands.
1t is pointed out here by members
Of the legislature the independence
movement is so popular in the Philip
pines that the imperialists in the
United States congress will now throw
their efforts to the Bacon bill in order
to insure sufficient rubber lands in
the islands, and that the troubles
brewing in Jolo and Mindanao are de.
liberately organized to give weight to
Representative Bacon's arguments.
RAMAIN, Mindanao, P. I--Alauya
Altono, sultan of Ramain and one Of
the most prominent Moro figures in
Lanao "a district of Mindanao) has
voiced his disapproval of the actions
of Wood and Thompson in their at
tempts to stir up trouble on behalf Of
the Bacon bill.
Sultan Alonto is firm supporter Of
independence for Christian as we'll as
Mohammedan Filipinos. Recently he
gave a statement to the National
News Service in the Philippines stat
ing his position on the Bacon bill and
on the general independence question.
1.-THE only way of compelling us to
separate from the rest Of the Philip
pines" said the sultan, '"is to make
Mindanao sink into the bottom Of the
seta. We people in Lanao know
how the imperialists manage to make
trouble. Our Christian brothers
are not the only ones who work for
independence. We Moros also work
for it."

how to make bad men into honest

for that reason. to extend their re-

Attorney Southland
Seeks Understanding
On French War Debt

plea for a better understanding
of the attitude of the French people
in regard to the war debt owed to
the United States was made by
County Attorney Frank L. Southland
at the regular Wednesday noon luch-
con and business meeting of the Gar
diner Rotary Club at the johnson
House. Mr.. Southland declared that
II the people of the two nations
would trace the history of these two
countries down through the ages and
consider the number of times that
they have helped each other with
funds and assistance he was sure a
better feeling would prevail on both
sides. He cited some of the in
stances wherein France and the
United States had been of invaluable
assistance to each other in times of
stress. He also told of the parade in
which hundreds of disabled French
soldiers participa ted and protested
against paying the full amount of the
war debt. His talk was one of es-
pecial interest and he gave his listen
ers a clearer understanding of this
great question.
The members OF the club were in
vited by the officials of the State Y.
NJ. c. A. Camp at East Winthrop to
be the guests of the Gardiner boys
out there at supper last evening, and
about a dozen members made the
trip and reported a hearty welcome
and fine time.
The guests at the meeting were
John Mcdowell, Of Troy, \. Y, Maui
rice Kelley. Winfield Pope and Char
les kinsman, of the Augusta Rotary

Then they entered the house for a
quiet rest among old surroundings.
The attorney general soon after their

The warmth of the greeting here
was characteristic of popular recep-
tons given the president during his

Rancher DEGREES
Lurid Cowboy Fiction

Denver, Aug 4-(P)-Lurid fiction
tales of chaparajosed COW "waddies"
galloping recklessly across the
prairies or shooting the buttons
from some fasteners spats at sew
enty PAGES with notched Ass" have
drawn a protest from Charles n
Frost, rancher Of Bozeman, Mont.
Frost asserts that Westerners are
not gangs of noisy imbeciles who go
on dress parade to please tourists
nor does their. sole occupation con.
sist of hanging badmen.
He pictured the cowboy as merely
an ordinary human being, trailing
his fligreed spurs about the rancn
yard at the most mental Of tasks.
Clothes Are Practical
Even the cowboys dress is not a
costume for burlesque show, Frost
says, but an apparel designed to
meet conditions with which the cow
puncher has to cope. The chaps
keep the brush from scratching the
legs of the gders; the ''shootin'
irons" are used for predatory anil
mails and to protect their herds; the
neckerchief originated on the old
Texas trails az a protection from
dust 1t originally was worn across
the nose, being knotted loosely about
the neck when not in use. The high
heeled boots keep the foot Of the
rider from slipping through the STIR
rup aboard a snorting mount. The
spurs are as necessary as a wrench
to present day mechanic, while the
ten gallon hats are a protection
against sun and storm.
Easy on Tenderfoots
THE 1926 model cowboy" Frost
declares, spends comparatively little
time hanging horse thieves. and even
less time committing burglary and
highway robbery, which fail to thrive
on the range.
The cowboy of today does not
compel English lords to dance by
shooting at their feet, nor does he
conspire to commit murder by induc-
ing a 'tenderfoot' to mount a noto-
riouslv bad horse. Furthermore, the
puncher does not wear his sombrero,
spurs and gun for the edfication of
the tourist dudes and 'dudeens, but
employs them in his work the same
as a deep sea diver wears a helmet.
Just A Laborer
When the miles of barbed wire
fences need repairing, some one must
do the work It is up to the cowboy,
and he sallies forth with staples,
pliers and wire stretcher instead of
six-gun, inlaid spurs and glistening
conchas trimmed chaps. The 1925
cowboy also shoes his own horses,
keeps the windmill or gasoline en-
CINE pump working. or puts hay UP
in the summer and feeds it to the
cattle during the winter He brands
colts and calves; gathers and drives
beef to the railroads. loads 1t into
stock cars, goes to the city with the
shipment, and attempts to raise dog
gies by hand"
