BRAND VAINLY
TRIES TO FORM
A new CABINET
Herriot and Poincare De-
cline Positions

PARIS, June 16.-Although Presi-
dent Doumergue Of France persuaded
Aristide BRAND, who resigned with his
cabinet yesterday, to form a new cab
met, BRAND is having no happy time
trying to persuade anyone to take
cabinet positions. The calamitous fall
of the franc makes the new cabinet as
unsafe as the one just fallen.
1t is planned to form sort of coali-
ton cabinet from all parties Of the
right and as far to the left as anyone
Of that tendency will accept. How
ever, Edouard Herriot, old leader of
the left bloc, refused to have any
honor thrust upon him by BRAND and
the socialists are understood to refuse
cabinet positions, while former Pre-
mier Raymond Poincare also shows no
desire to enter the new cabinet.
This is the tenth time BRAND has
become the premier Of France, three
times this year taking the head OF
the government, though 1t must be
said Frances condition speaks no
good of his guidance.

CHINESE PREMIER
RESIGNS AS new
CONFLICT BEGINS
Nationalists and Impe-
rialists Renew Struggle
Special to The Daily Worker.

PEKING, June l Premier Yen has
sent the announcement of his resig-
nation to the provinces and the gov
eminent here faces a new crisis as
the nationalist forces to the north and
west strengthen their positions daily
and Generals Chang Tso-lin and WI
Pei-fu are preparing for new battles
which will probably settle the fate of
WI Pei-fu, who will act as commander
in chief of the operations against the
Kuominchun.
The belief here is that Changes part
in the campaign will be merely the
protection Of the right wing OF Wu's
army, altho Chang insists that the
Kuominchun nationalist army must
be annihilated.
WI to Attack Three Cities.
Wu's forces will advance to engage
the nationalist armies from three d.
rections, attacking Nankow, Hawilai
and Hsuanhuafu.
The line OF battle runs thru noun
tain country where the difficulties Of
transport makes the use OF any great
amount Of artillery impossible.
This means that the less we'll
equipped nationalist army will be able
to meet Was forces on nearly equal
terms,
PremIer's Reason for Resi1ning.
Premier Yen states that the reason
Tor his resignation is that he feels
o. that he has been sacrificed to the mil
itarfst ambitions of WI Pei-fu and
Chang Tso-lin and can no longer ac-
cept responsibility for the outcome of
the conflict which is soon to begin.

Bankers Winning All
Victories as Session of
Congress Comes to End
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

TNHE present session Of congress Is
4 rapidly nearing adjournment.
It's absolute subserviency to the
great banking interests is shown by
predicted action on two bills. It is
claimed that the Haugen bill, ex-
tending relief to the farmers, will
be killed. 1t is equally certain that
the McFadden bill, Strengthening
the position of the powerful ma
tional banks as against the smaller
state banks, will pass and become
law.
So sure are the profit interests Of
their position, that the Chicago
Journal of Commerce, for instance,
taunts the so-called "progressives"
with their absolute failure to put
up a fight of any kind. Here is
what it says:
1.-THE most amazing thing about
the funeral ceremonies of the Haul
gen bill was the fact that Melons
death blow to the measure was TAX
en- lying down by the fiery advo-
Gates of the measure In both the
house and senate. In the upper
house (senate) the debate droned
along, with Peter Norbeck of South
Dakota taking up most of the time
and with everyone realizing that the
whole debate was futile"
That is the final kick in the face
that the bringing "progressives,"
who have tried to be good boys all
during the present session, get for
their efforts. 1t has been a most
successful session for the greatest
business interests.
The world court plan went thru.
Favorable tax reduction legislation
was passed. Railroad legislation, in
which the most reactionary trans
portation barons joined, has been
made law. The power interests won
in the struggle over Muscle Shoals.
And now the McFadden bill is about
to become a law as the Haugen bill
is scheduled for the congressional
waste basket.
There is nothing radical" in the
Haugen bill. 1t is merely an effort
to apply to the farm situation what
already applies to industry. Be-
hind high tariff wall it is proposed
to keep up the price Of farm prod
ucts in this country while selling
cheaper abroad dn order to be able
to compete better with the products
Of foreign agriculture and dispose Of
the American surplus in the world
grain market. The high tariff on
steel, textiles and finished food pro-
ducts, like flour, as we'll as on all
protected" products, enables the
great profteers to hold the home
market, at high prices, while selling
cheaply, and still at a profit, in for
eign markets.
The well-to-do farmers have
always supported this robber pol
icy in congress, resulting in high

The One Big Union made no report
to the department showing member
ship in 1924, so that comparisons in
this case are impossible.
Mine Workers.
The outstanding decline in member
ship in the international group is re-
ported by the United Mine Workers.
This reflects a secession in District
IS, which includes the coal fields of
Alberta apd southeastern British Co
lumbia. The miners in District IS
seeded in order to accept a bigger
wage cut than the United Mine Work
ers could agree to. They had been
starved into submission by lockout
They recognized as the Mine Work
ers Union of Canada, which reports
membership Of $500.
Railroad Employees.
Railroad employees form the largest
group of organized workers in Can
ada, with 10000, or 29.15 per cent of
the total. The mining and quarrying
trades comprise the second largest
group, with 1886 members, OF 9.7S
per cent Of the total. Other groups
are public employees, personal service
and amusement trades, 26,001 mem
bers; building trades, 23,243; other
transportation and navigation trades,
19, $50; metal trades, 1921; printing
and paper making, 1905; clothing,
boots and shoes, 1907.
The latest Canadian census shows
G74,265 wage earners employed in
manufacture, mining and railroading.
Eliminating public employees, building
trades and other transportation trades
from the total organized workers in
Canada, it appears that the number
organized in the industries covered by
the census is 202,19O, about ~ per
cent OF the total.

American Bankers
Very Class Conscious
By a Worker correspondent.

YOUNGSTOWN, N. J., June 16.--
Morristown is a small town with about
$1,000 population. Thousands of New
York bankers have their estates here.
When l entered the public library
here | did not expect to find much
literature at my disposal which would
give me the latest and correct news
of working-class events.
Finds "Workers Monthly"
My surprise was great when found
among other magazines the Workers
Monthly could not resist from ex-
claiming:
why, the Workers Monthly!"
A man at nearby reading table
gazed at me with curiosity and asked:
"Have you read this magazine be-
fore?"
Eyes, sir"
"Where?"
I'm New York. Not at a public
library, but at a workers library, and
I'm surprised to see one here"
Banker Very Glass Conscious.
The man smiled and said: why.
young man, II you want to fight the
devil you must know what he looks
like"
Then I asked him why they don't
allow such literature for the use Of
the public in all the great industrial
cities.
He smiled again and said: "Why,
those people are ignorant and will
take everything for granted"
"And here?"
well, here 1t is different. This is
bankers town"
understood his remark. The CAPT
talist class is very class conscious and
watches the working class with fear.

VICTORY PARADE
STIRS new YORK
Happy Workers March
10000 Strong
BY J. o. HENTALL.
Especial to The Daily Worker)


NEW YORK, June 17.-In a mon
ster demonstration that stirred even
this huge city the Furriers' Union cell
ebrated its strike victory on Tuesday
morning in which its 10000 members
joined to the last individual and in
which 10000 other union men and
women participated, while hundreds
Of thousands of sympathetic workers
blocked the streets for four hours to
cheer the marchers on their way.
Cheer FrelheIt.
Starting from the meeting halls in
lower Manhattan, the line followed
4th Street to 3rd avenue to 8th street
and to End avenue, to 18th street, left
to 4th avenue, up to 21st street, then
to 7th avenue, to 32nd street, turned
back to 9Th avenue, to 22nd street,
back to 4th avenue to Union Square,
where a tremendous demonstration
was held in front of the Freiheit, with
prolonged cheers and the singing Of

they shouted, "Three cheers for the
Passaic strikers"
Gold Praises Membership.
A large wreat Of red roses made up
into the huge letter &c" had the pic
ture OF Ben Gold in the center.
1.-THE success of this strike" said
Gold, "lies in the fact that the rank
and file was drawn into this struggle
and the workers themselves were
called upon to shape the policies and
to carry them out. Other unions must
do the same and will meet the same
success when that plans is followed.
"our next step is amalgamation,
which will insure strength TO the
union and thus make Il invincible
against the bosses.
1.-THE present leadership is made up
OF the expelled members, driven oyt
by the reactionaries. We came back
and have made success OF our work.
"We brought into this struggle all
the unorganized and have added over
1000 new members. Most OF these
we're Greeks, and they have already
proven to be among the most active.
II is now 10 months since the Left
Wing came into office, and we have
won many advantages during this
time and now we have won the

their efforts to railroad the strike
leaders to prison. The bosses are
already displaying signs of weakening.
In the early days of the strike they
would not listen to talk about the
union. Lately, however, as the strike
has cut into their profits they have
been trying to palm off a company
union on the strikers.
But these Jersey textile strikers,
who have conducted one Of the great
est strikes in the history of the Amer
lean labor movement, were not to be
fooled. Almost unanimously the strix-
ers rejected the bosses trick union.
More Than Local Interests Involved.
The strikers realize that this strug-
gle involves more than their own in
terests. That upon victory depends in
large measure the immediate future
of millions Of workers. To accept less
than victory would be to give the sig
nal to the bosses all over the country
to intensity their wage-slashing cam
paign against labor. And the textile
strikers who have been superbly sup
ported by organized labor, from Maine
to California, refuse to permit the
bosses to give that signal.
Groups that were at first in opposi-
ton, or processing a neutrality that
was patiently boss-tinged, are now
openly for the strikers. Their stom-
achs have been turned by what they
have seen Of the mill owners intense

tative Dickinson now walls that:
Ever since the Civil War, the
farmers Of most of the great grain
belt states have supported the pro-
tective system, not because they be-
lieved it meant anything to them
directly, but because industry in
sisted that it had a right to fair
price in the home market"
Thus Dickinson confesses that the
well.to-do farmers have been the
dupes of the nations great indus
trial overlords. 1t was Secretary Of
the Treasurer "Andy" Mellon who
attacked the protective" policy for
the farmers as economically I'M
sound" 1t is not unsound, of
course, in its application to the
products of the steel trust, the coal
trust and other large industrial in
terests in which Mellon has his mil
lions invested When Mellon issued
his edict on behalf of the Coolidge
administration Dickinson declared:
"All Pve got to say Is that If this
is the verdict, then the thunderboIt
that came out of Iowa the other day
lin the nomination of Brookhart
against cummlns) Is merely the
sheet lightning of the coming
Storm"
1t is this storm that should help
tear the farmers away from the old
political parties and bring about an
alliance with city workers for indie
pendent political action. Following
"progressives" in the old parties
has merely led the workers and
farmers into blind alleys. They
must learn that the way out is thru
the Labor Party.
AS result of the promised pas.
sage OF the MeFadden bill, the
farmers will see the power of Wall
Street creeping ever closer, with the
elimination of the small state banks
The national banks are to be allow
ed to have branches, as many as five
in cities with a population Of .0OO.-
600. The only hindrance now con
sists Of state laws that will be
doomed for the political graveyard.
Instead of dealing with the small
country banker, who sometimes
talked his language and Joined with
him in third party movements, like
the LaFollette movement. the
farmer will be faced with the WIS.,
ible evidence of Wall Streets
power in the form Of a branch of
some great national bank depend
ent upon eastern financiers.
The farmer as we'll as the city
worker faces the power of the great
bankers. He must learn to unite
with the labor in industry to op-
pose that menace with his own
class power.
