British Trades Union congresses, like
American baseball games. begin on
time. Exactly at noon, Sept. 6, the
58th session was opened by Arthur
Pugh, who piloted the general council
through the general strike. Standing
behind his shell-rim glasses, his gray
mustache bristling, he read in a meas
ured tone, like an auditor reporting
on the financial status OF great bust
ness. His speech was colorless, like
his face. When he had finished it was
easy for an observer to picture the
scene, on May IL, when the prime
minister said: "Mr. Pugh, have you a
statement to maker" and Mr.. Pugh
said: Yes, sir" and then called off
The strike as he was told.
Macdonald sat on Pugh's right. As
he entered the hall he was warmly
greeted His hands are still big and
strong, but his hair is very gray; his
face is lined, and his back slopes a
bit. He is not bent like Bob Smillie,
hough, who sat little beyond him

John Bromley. of the general coun-
ill who recently slapped the miners

platform, smoking his pipe, answering
questions and steering his colleagues

pipe alight and square cut whiskers
wagging as he talks and laughs. On

STUDENTS STAGE
PROTEST AGAINST
HIGH SCHOOL CUT
Demand Reinstatement
of Special Courses

A student protest meeting in Sem
High School Wednesday met for the
purpose OF launching a vigorous pro-
test against a new economy campaign
started recently by the school board
in which special courses, chief among
them dramatics, were curtailed. The
Sem students were supported by a
delegation from Lindblom High and
members of the Parent-Teachers As
soctation.
The meeting was opened by James
Woodward, a student, who read the
curtailment order issued by school
superintendent Gear" McAndrews,
which was vigorously Kissed by the
assembled students. Young Wood
ward said that the stage material be-
ing removed under the order was part
ly paid for out of the proceeds of stu
dent theatrical presentations.
Parents Support Them.
A delegate from the Parent-Teach-
ers' Association told/the students they
had the backing of that body in their
protests against the removal of spe-
cial courses that lend the only color
to student life in the high schools.
Principals Of the high schools say
there was no consultation from school
headquarters about the change. The
first they knew of it was the general
order issued by McAndrew. The few
members of the school board that
could be reached either said they
knew nothing about II or supported
McAndrew on economy" grounds.
Teachers Reopen Flight.
While the students we're waging
their fight against the school bureau
cracy. the teachers met yesterday in
council and decided to make another
effort to prevail on McAndrew to al
low the councils of teachers to meet
during school hours as they had done
for thirtyfour years until, in 1924 Nc
Andrew issued an order stopping
them.

The petroleum syndicate has con
! Guided no further contracts with
Great Britain concerning the supply
of mazut and petroleum. 1t has con-
Quoted no such negotiations either
previously or now. As can be seen
from the statistics, mazut was only
exported to England in the first
quarter of the present year. During
the whole strike period no single ton
of mazut or raw petroleum was ex-
ported to Great Britain, only such oils
as could not replace coal were ex-
ported.
This is the real proof about the
first part of the slanderous fabrication
of the German opportunists. These
facts, however, disposed of the second
part concerning the alleged protest OF
Cook. It is perfectly clear that if the
Soviet Union has exported nothing
which could replace coal, then any
protest by Cook is rendered unneces,
sary. In point of fact such an affair
was never mentioned at the Anglo,
IuSSldu uluCAo COAuAulbtSS. HC
second contention is therefore just as
much fabrication as the first.
1t is perfectly clear to every honest
worker that the aim of these calum-
MES is to break the bonds which join
the miners of Great Britain to the
workers of the Soviet Union. Another
aim of these calumnies is to excuse
the treacherous attitude Of the Ger
man trade union leaders with regard
to the assistance for the British min
ers. Germany is exporting continuous
ly increasing amounts OF coal to Great
Britain with the full support of the
trade union leaders.
The German workers, above all the
workers of Hamburg, have protested
again and again; they have demanded
an immediate cessation of the export
of coal and the strengthening of the
measures of solidarity Thru this
broad masses of the German workers
prove that they condemn the strike
breaking attitude of their leaders.
The latter invent various fairy tales
concerning the export of combustibles
from the Soviet Union in order to
excuse their own treachery. The Ger
man trade union leaders are acting
according 20 the principle: Throw
mud and some will surely stick. Any
thing else was not expected of them.

U. S. FRATERNAL
DELEGATES DON'T
SHINE At T.U. C.
harrington Dares Not

BoURNEMOUTH, Eng. =, (FP)-
Not all was for the best with the fra
ternal delegates to the British Trades
Union congress. The misfortunes of
the American and Russian delegates
disappointed the British labor men.
Just as the congress convened the
newspapers came out with the in
formation that Frank Harrington, one
OF the American delegates was dis
covered to be in the pay of coalown-
ers. Although he was in London,
only few miles from Bournemouth,
he dared not appear at the conven-
ton.
w. L. Hutcheson Of the carpenters,
the other American delegate, made a
very brief stay in the convention city
Although special session was assign
ed for his message, he asked permits
sion to speak soon after his arrival,
spending little time at the sessions or
fraternizing with the delegates. His
5-minute talk gave no account Of the
labor movement in America and show
ed no interest in the problems of the
movement in Britain.
While members of the general coun-
Gil would not make adverse comment
on Hutcheson's attitude, their regret
at the fiasco OF the American frater-
nal delegation was evident. British
labor is much interested in America.
Since the beginning OF the miners
lockout and the aid sent from all over
the world, It has felt closer to the in
ternational labor movement than ever
before.
While the British labor men might
have felt that American labor shows
too little interest in the British move
ment, some Of them thought that Rus
sian labor leaders show too much.
When Tomsky and other Russian fra
ternal delegates were refused admis-
sion to Britain by his majesty's gov
eminent, they cabled their message
to the congress. In it they attacked
the conduct Of the general strike as a
betrayal by the leaders. The mess
age was printed by the general coun-
Gil and circulated among the dele
gates. A reply was also added stat
ing that "the general council has no
intention OF replying to this Him
structed and presumptuous criticism"
J. w. Brown spoke for the Intl.
(Amsterdam) Federation Of Trade I'm
ions. Trade union problems are in

he said. Even II national unions
were 100 per cent organized 1t would
not be enough TO withstand the at
