strations of labor thruout Mexico to
counteract the flood of catholic pro-
paganda inundating the country as
part of the church's campaign to set
aside the constitution of 1917 and re-
gain its former political hegemony
will feature the next several days.
One labor official put. the issue, I'VE
are determined to fight to a finish in
the interest of the liberation of the
working class from the trammels of
centuries. AS we see the issue, it is
whether we workers will be allowed
to think for ourselves or have our
thinking done by the makers of creeds
and preachers of superstition.
Big Campaign.
The labor parade in Mexico City
scheduled for tomorrow is a prelude
for national campaign against the
clergy and the activities of the mill
tant catholic laymen, led by the rich
land owners. in their present effort
to re-establish the church as a polit-
ical power in the land.
Take Over Churches.
The office of the attorney general
today sent out circular to all gov
ernors with instructions for the oc-
casion of the abandonment of the
churches by the clergy on July 81.
The priests are forbidden to turn
their churches over to catholic lay
men when they are left in accordance
with a decision of the hierarchy. The
government has ordered the mayors
of all municipalities to appoint COM
mittees of citizens into whose care,
after careful inventory, the churches
and establishments are to be placed
Enforce Laws.
Further instructions have been is
sued to local magistrates to guard
against any infractions of the laws
governing the activities of the church.
Officials are still investigating the
pastoral letter for which seven arch
bishops were given court summonses
yesterday with view to discovering
whether or not definite charges of
sedition will be placed. Action is ex-
pected in day or two.
Church Propaganda.
A secret handbill, thought to eman-
ate from the church is being distrib-
uted thruout Mexico, says in part:
Catholics! Nero ended. Caligula
died. Diocletian disappeared. And
so also will end all of the enemies
of the church. Only God does not
die, nor will his church ever die.
Christ lives, Christ reigns, Christ
rules"
Unconfirmed reports from outlying
districts speak of violence having
been already introduced into the strug-
gle. Thousands of the superstitious
followers of the church have been
storming the institutions in the past
several days baptizing and confirming
their children because of the closing
order.
The Schismatic catholic church, a
group of dissenters, has applied to the
government for permission to take
over the churches when they are left
by the clergy at the end of the month.
The priests when they leave their
pulpits, will engage in what they term
missionary" activity. This actually
means that they will devote their en-
tire time to activity in behalf of the
present move of the church against
the Mexican government.

Henry L. Green, treasurer Of sena-

he failed to get the support of the

Green pointed out that he held a
secret conference in Chicago with
Charles V. Barrett and that after the
conference he understood" this group
would support Mckinley in his race
for the denomination and that he
promised to put $1,000 into each Chi
cago ward thru the Grove Barrett ma
chine-a total of $4,000
Nothing ever came Of it," Green
added I'VE understood that William
Hale Thompson, who was hostile to
Senator Mckinley, persuaded the or

and that turned it against the sen

Green made a fat denial that Nc

that Mckinley had practiced remark

even reduced his donations to charity

to exclude Lashevitch as a candidate
member of the central committee.
In place of Zinoviev, Rudzutak has
been elected member of the political
bureau. Thus the present members
of the political bureau of the All-Union
Communist Party are: Stain, Rykov,
5ukharin, Tomsky, kalinin, Molotov,
Rudzutak and Trotsky. The number of
candidate-members has been extended
from five to eight and the following
persons have been elected as candi-
date-members: Petrovsky, UeIanov,
ordjonkidze, Andreyev, Kirov, Mi
koyan, kaeanovieh and Kamenev.
(Hitherto the candidate-members of
the political bureau have been: Rud-
zutak, Dzerzhinsky, Petrovsky, Ugla-
nov and Kamenev)
Concerning the unity Of the party
the resolution points out that the op-
position arose at the time of the Four.
teenth Congress Of the party and was
condemned by that congress. Not
withstanding the possibility for active
work in all the leading institutions of
the party which was given to the op-
position, the opposition continued to
persist in the errors condemned by
the congress, and, in the struggle to
maintain its views, the opposition did
not keep within the limits of the
party statutes. Having lately violated
the DEGREES of previous congresses
concerning the preservation of the
unity of the party, the opposition at
tempted to create an Illegal factional
organization opposed to the party and
directed against its unity. These at
tempts were manifested in the organ
ization of Illegal secret meetings, the
reprinting and distribution of tenden-
tiously selected party documents (se-
cret political bureau documents dis
seminated among party members and
sent to the Organizations at Briansk,
Saratov, Vladivostok, Piatigorsk.
Omsk, Homel and Odessa), sending
agents to other party organizations
for the purpose of organizing in them
secret Sectional groups (Belensky's
trip to Odessa for the purpose of or
ganizing an Illegal fraction, the estab-
lishment of special cypher, party
quarters, etc. All of this shows that
the factional measures OF the oppo-
sition were led from within the ap-
paratus Of the executive committee Of
the Communist International headed
by Zinoviev. The resolution particu-
larly points out the fact that the H.
legal factional meeting in the woods
near Moscow was organized and pre-
sided over by Belenky, who was at
tached to the work of the executive
committee of the Communist Interna.
tional. Lashevich, a candidate-mem-
ber of the central committee of the
party, made a report to this secret
meeting, inviting those present to or
ganize themselves to fight the party
central committee.
The resolution emphasizes all of
these disorganizing actions of the op-
position, proving that the opposition
decided to pass over from the legal
maintenance of its views to the crea-
tion of an All-Union illegal organiza-
ton opposed to the party, thus prepar.

opposition evoked animation amongst

How We Destroyed the Gaspee."
when Dewey Came to Manila" "Of
Santiago with Sampson" and "The
Capture OF Louisbourg."
The opening narrative sets forth the
capture and sinking of the British
eight-gun schooner Gaspee, in Nara
gansett Bay in 1872 by group of the
citizens of Providence, r. I. The
story relates particularly the part
taken by Daniel Pearce and Justin
Jacobs, lads of II and 16 years, in the
attack on his Majesty's schooner, the
crew of which commanded by Lieut..
William Duddlington had taken upon
itself to stop every vessel that en-
tered Narrangansett Bay and seize
such goods on board as struck the
lieutenant's fancy, whether a tax
should be paid upon them or not.
r. The experiences of two Yankee lads
from Boston in Cavite, the Spanish ma
val station In Manila Bay. at the time
when the, fleet. carrying the stars and
stripes sailed into the bay and de-
stroyed the Spanish fleet, are recount
ed in the next story. From point
high on hill overlooking the bay the
boys witnessed the naval battle, and
incidentally the boys themselves had
lively time when they and their Fill
Pine protectors were attacked by
band of Malays just prior to the sur
render of the city of Cayite.
"Off Santiago with Sampson" is an
other tale of adventure in which Ted
dy Dunlap becomes a stowaway on the
u. S. collier Merrimac which is bound
for Santiago Bay to supply coal for the
U. S. battleships. The boys one desire
is to be near his father who is a coal
passer on Uncle Sans battleship
Brooklyn. The tale does not lack ex-
element for the young man is present
and participates in the great naval
battle in Santiago harbor.
The capture of Louisbourg In Nova
Scotia in 1745 through the expedition
which left by water from the vari-
Gus New England ports, is described
in the last of the four stories.
A large number of illustrations are
included in the volume. The stories
are more interesting than fiction and
serve to arouse the young readers in
terest in American history.
