tions payment, thereby avoiding viola

French Deputy Wants
to Trade Indo-China
Rubber Land for Debt

PARIS, Aug. 20.-To cede to the
United States 100000 acres of land
in Indo-China, suitable for growing
rubber, as a settlement for the French
war debt to America is the proposal
made by Deputy Outrey for Cochin
China in the nationalist newspaper
Liberte.
Expects Big Deficit.
M. outrey estimates that there will
be a deficit of 10000 tons in the rub
Der supply in 1928, progressing to $685.
600 tons by 1885.
1--WE can offer the Americans prop
osition to produce sufficient rubber
annually to supply the market, there
by reducing prices to- a reasonable
profit bearing figure and affording a
saving to United States consumers Of
S,000,000,000 paper francs on the 400,-
900 tons of rubber they use" he says.
Announces His Plan.
M. outrey, after consulting official
government maps and surveyors, be-
lieves the rubber land which he pro
poses to lease to the United States
could be plotted out in the province OF
Cambodia.

ALEX HOWAT IN I
PRAISE OF RUSS
MINERS SPIRIT
Wild to Aid British
Brothers In Strike

''It would be hard to describe the
great enthusiasm among Russian min.
ers when relief for their locked out
British brothers is mentioned" says
Alexander Howat, former president of
the Kansas district of the United Mine
Workers. Howat dropped in on Chi
cago from Braidwood, ILL.,, where he
was born. He came here with Mrs.
Howat to visit relatives. He is on his
way back to his job of coaldigging
in mine near Pittsburgh, Kan, after
several months in the Soviet Union.
Inspiring Unity.
IT spoke at a number Of big coal
mines in southern Russia" Howat re-
lates, when the collections for the
British workers were taken. l told
the miners that their action would not
only help sustain the coaldigger fami.
lies in Great Britain in their fight
against wage cuts and longer homs,
but that it would provide inspiration
for labor men and women all over the
world to demonstrate the unity Of the
organized workers against the owning
class.
Assessments and Cheers.
"The men at one Of the mines voted
an assessment Of 81 week, about 5
per cent of their wages, for the dura-
ton Of the lockout. At another they
voted ruble week, or so cents, The
general officers of the unions have to
caution their members every so often
not to vote away all their wages in
assessments in promoting labor soli-
darity or bringing relief all over the
world"
undermining Russian Mines.
Russian coal mining, Howat says,
is approaching the American pattern,
with American mining machinery, par
ticularly the Sullivan make, and with
progress toward electrification.
Interested in 5rophy.
Howat expressed interest in the
campaign that President John Brophy
of the central Pennsylvania miners is
making against John L. Lewis for the
international presidency of the U. M.
w. A. and recalled his own race q
number of years ago.

PROTEST WOODS
VETO OF ISLAND
Referendum BILL
Anti-Inperialist League
Asks Recall of Governor

Branding Governor-General Woods
veto of the Filipino referendum bill
on independence as "a brazen insult
to an oppressed people" the All-Amer-
lea AntiImperialist League yesterday
issued a statement of protest.
The statement calls for the imme-
date recall of Wood and appeals to
the American workers to support Fill
pino independence.
The statement in full follows:
Are the Filipino People to Be Denied
the Right to Say Whether They
Want Their Freedom?
STATEMENT OF ALL AMERICA
ANTI-lMPERlALIST LEAGUE.
General Leonard Wood has
again vetoed the bill for a referendum
on the independence question in the
Philippines. This is the second time
that he has refused to grant the Fill
ptnos the right to say whether they
want independence. Last year a sim
liar bill was passed unanimously by
the legislature, but it was vetoed by
Wood when 1t was too late for repas-
sage. The present bill vetoed by Wood
will now come before the legislature
for re-passage, will undoubtedly be
unanimously re-adopted, and then will
be presented to President Coolidge for
his action
Wood Fears Vote.
Why did Wood veto this bill? Why
does he not permit the Filipinos to
vote on this question? That he fears
an overwhelming support for freedom
on the part of the voters is proved by
the fact that every representative in
the Filipino legislature was elected
mainly for his stand for independence.
Wood has acted in accord with the
wishes Of Wall Street, which can look
upon the Philippines only as a cast
rubber plantation.
Woods action makes a mockery of
everything American presidents have
ever said about the rights Of self-de-
termination of nations. Not only are
the Filipinos denied self-determination
but they are even refused the right to
express their preference.
Monster Protest.
The All-American Anti-Imperialist
League calls upon all true friends OF
Filipino independence to rally in a
monster protest against this brazen
insult to an oppressed people. Let
your voice be heard in Washington!
Demand the recall Of Governor-Gen
eral Wood, whose every act tightens
the chains of imperialist domination
on the Philippines!
Wood must be recalled Immediately
Down with American Imperialism!
Support the struggle for independ
ence of the Filipino people!
Immediate, complete and absolute
independence for the Philippines!
