Southern Baptist Church
Convention Condemns
Teaching of Evolution
BY a Worker Correspondent

HOUSTON, Texas, May "a. - The
Southern Baptist Church went ON rec
ord to GUST any pastor who believes
evolution, or teaches 1t in any form.
They urged all members to vote for
prohibition candidates, regardless of
party Affiliations.
]. Frank Norris, declared when the
convention accepted John D. Rookie
feller's offer of aid in large amounts,
"The Baptist Church is becoming the
religion of Standard OIL"
Negroes were denied representation.
Delegate William of Ripley, Tonnes
see, gave the reason, "a Negro is a
Negro"
Several foreign missionaries spoke.
Three from China admitted a strong
anti-religious movement, but they all
prayed that god would convert the
radical youth among the heather
Chinese. One from Canton had meet
ings broken up by radicals shouting
China for Chinese. Down with i'm
perialism!" "Chinese merchants are
very ungodly," declared the sky pilots.
The chairman, McDaniels of Rich
mon, Virginia, said "The purpose of
gods calling this convention is to at
tend to his interests, we must see that
the $4,000, 900 cooperative program is
adopted" This program calls for
100000 to be dug up by the lowly
rank and file, each year. The whole
program led up to the adoption of the
100000 annual cooperative pro
gram" That was the main purpose
of the convention being called.
A special train carried many dele.
gates to Galveston where the annual
Bathing Girl Revue was in progress
tho they condemned the revue at the
convention.

ability Of two-thirds of the population.
AT all times and in all places"
said the commission, private enter
prise has failed to meet the needs
of the underlying population. In New
York City the first official statement
of the inadequate character of the
housing of these economically less
fortunate groups dates back to 1872
Periodically thereafter, Investigations
have been conducted by official and
unofficial bodies, all of which find the
same or similar conditions continu-
ing" I
Housing Gets Worse and Higher.
Specifically, the commission found
that the $4,000 tenement suites pro-
vided by new construction during
1924 rent for upwards Of SIS per room
per month, more than twothirds Of
the population can afford.
"Rents are still increasing in
apartments built before the war. Con-
ditions in the tenements are worse
today than before the war because of
depreciation Of the properties. Land
lords make no repairs"
Most Of Rent Is Interest.
The commission found that about
81 per cent of each months rent goes
for interest charges.
The original bill, drawn by the COM
mission to remedy the situation and
backed by Governor Smith, was re-
jected by republican legislature as
"socialistic." 1t provided for a state
housing bank similar to the federal
land bank to acquire land by condem-
nation proceedings and lease 1t to linn
dted-dividend building companies. Two
thirds of the building capital was to
be provided by the sale thru the bank
of state housing bonds, the other
third thru the limited-dividend com
panies permitted to earn not more
than 6 per cent. The substitute bill
passed by the Legislature eliminates
the state housing bank but provides
for state regulated limited-dividend
companies with power to acquire land
by condemnation proceeding and with
tax exemption to get low rates OF in
ssrest.

Novy Mir Gets Help
from Chicago Friends
at Workers Houoe
ey ! worker correspondens.

A bouquet of flowers at the Novy
Mir concert and dance Saturday night
at the Workers House brought in over
$275 and was won by Mrs. TOPPER who
received 14,225 votes at one cent a
vote. The next highest vote received
by Mrs. Mailer was 1922. About $500
was raised for the benefit Of the Novy
Mir at this affair. It was one of the
most successful affairs held in the
Workers House during the season.
The hall was packed to capacity by
friends of the Novy Mir and its Chi
cago worker correspondents who ar
ranged the affair.
The program proved to be "as adj
vertised"-very interesting. Mr.. Kol-
tunov, the Russian singer, made quite
a hit with his new version Of the
popular workers song "Dubinushka,"
winding up with the International, the
audience joining in. Mrs. Mailer, the
dramatic soprano, won the audience
by her beautiful singing to such an
extent that over 1892 was raised in
an attempt to win for her the bouquet
Of flowers. Miss R. Rubin was great
ly applauded for her beautiful Rus
sian songs. The Workers House
Singing Society and all others who
participated in the program received
their share Of recognition from the
audience. The Russian actor, Com
rade Pokatilov, who conducted the
flower contest, stated that he never
raised so much money in such short
period Of time, but he certainly work
ed hard and earned the big flower
that he received from the winner OF
the contest.
The dancing lasted until 2 a. m.

TOM MANN TALKS
ABOUT STRIKE TO
BERLIN WORKERS
English Strike Is an In
ternational One
tspeeIaI to The Daily W0rk.r,

BERLIN, May 9 (By MaiD During
an airplane stopover between Moscow
and London, Tom Mann, veteran mi
nority leader of the English trade
unionists, addressed in Berlin three
crowded meetings held under the
auspices of the international Workers
Aid. His main plea was that the
workers of other countries should
make it their business to see that
no coal was shipped from their shores
to England.
International Affair.
"This is your strike, as well as
ours" he told the German workers
assembled to hear him. "It is more
than an English affair. 1t is inter-
national in its scope and meaning.
We aim to strike blow at interna-
tional capitalism. To do so we shall
need the loyalty and solidarity of the
workers of the world"
In an interview Mann outlined the
conditions in the labor movement in
England preceding the strike.
The Change.
"For many years there have been
advocates of a general strike, but the
idea was pooh-hooed by the Trade
Union officials. The majority of trade
union officials in England have been
reactionary or Indifferent to any
change in the present social system.
But, as a result of the progressive
activities within the unions, partially
/ in the last four or five years, which
have been carried on mainly thru the
national majority movement, the out
look has been changed. There has
been so much effective propaganda in
the Trade Union branches that think
as high as 35 per cent of the member
ship is now with US.
Zone hundred per cent are definitely
favorable to the elimination Of all sec
tional unions and the establishment Of
workers control of industry"
Workers Republic.
Those are the two big issues being
fought in England today. That state
ment of demands is the English work
ers' declaration of independence. 1t
is the theoretical preface to the &C
tual and practical writing of consti-
| tuition for a workers republic!
Men of the type of J. H. Thomas,
VIII Thorne and Clynes have been
checkmating and hindering the growth
Of this feeling and principle" added
Mann. "But, in spite of them, at the
last minority international conference
which consisted of $40 delegates from
the Trade Union branches, without
any stipulation given except those
their respective branches gave, 1t
was voted unanimously to support the
revolutionary measures submitted to
the conference. 1t was a concrete in
dication of the growth of this idea Of
control for and by the workers. 1t
gave evidence of the fact that force
was possible, irrespective Of reaction
airy leaders"
Rank and File Action.
Mann went on to say that the una
nimity and solidarity of the workers
OF Great Britain in supporting the coal
miners was a complete surprise, even
to the miners. He also said that he
was sure that the situation would not
have been initiated by the union lead
ers. The force of the decision and
the action came directly from the rank
and file.

the Svetkovites and reactionaries was
complete.
After the motion was passed the
priest, Stephanoyich, who is the chair
man Of the resolution committee, the
Svetkovites and the reactionaries
could be seen in whispered converse
tons.
Aim Blow at Milltants.
The reactionaries aided by the Svet-
kovites also put across another sin
lister motion, viz, that any one against
the constitution Of the United States,
would not be admitted to the organ
ization. The intent of this clause in
the constitution was apparent: 1t was
to entrap the militant South Slavic
workers in this country, who in the
class struggle may come into con-
flict with the law. Svetkovites and
reactionaries joined on this issue. Dur
ing the heated discussions, the chair
man did not like the mihtancy Of
the progressives.
Noticing Comrade Zinich, member
of the South Slavic bureau of the
Workers (Comrnunist) Party, he said ::
For the last time, order Mr.. Zinich
to leave the floor of the convention.
Zinich did not leave.
During the report of the editor-in-chief
of the organ Of the union, an attempt
was made to eject Comrade Zinich
from the floor The Communists in
the convention Immediately ran to
the back of the hall, where they thot
Zinich was seated, but he was in the
gallery. The reactionaries did not
dare to lay a hand on him.
Progressive Bloc.
The united front of the reactionaries
and the Svetkovites prevented all
working class resolutions from being
presented to the convention. The
progressive bloc did not show suffi-
cient aggressiveness when the motion
was made to accept the resolutions
committee report, which turned down
all proposals of the progressives
There was too much passivity. Had
this been a trade union convention
and had as large "a bloc of progress
sives been present, there could not
have been such peace in the con
vention. The result was that resolu
lions in favor of the International La
Dor Defense, in favor of recognition
of Soviet Russia, for Labor Party
for joining the unions, were not read
but steamrollered.
In reporting on why the resolution
in favor Of the International Labor
Defense was turned down in com
mittee, the priest Stephanovich said
that the organization supports and de-
tends anarchists and I. w. WIS. The
last he drew out and emphasized so as
to terrorize the convention. Neverthe-
less the convention voted 500 to the
international Labor Defense.
The convention IS drawing to a close
after nearly threb weeks of work. The
progressive bloc bones out of the con
vention strengthened and organized
to carry on it's work during the next
three years till the next convention.

Progressive Resolutions
Are Steamrollered

CLEVELAND, May 23-The reso-
luton committee reported and propos-
ed resolutions OF little moment to
the South Slavic workers in this
country. Only one aroused consider
able discussion. There are two homes
in Jugo-Slavia where poor children
are given training for three years
and then handed over to manufacture
ers and big peasants for exploitation.
One of the schools is under the con.
troll of the Peasant Party, the other
under that Of the democratic (manu-
facturers) party.
The Communists supported a pro-
posal OF the svetkoyites (renegade
Communists) In committee to demand
that both schools be combined and
the bureaucrat$ be cleaned out. On
the floor Of the convention the Svet-
kovites turned tail, They saw that
they were in too close contact with
the Communists and the Progressive
Bloc and brought in a compromise
resolution, which the reactionaries
promptly accepted. The alliance of
the Svetkovites and reactionaries was
complete.
After the motion was passed the
priest, Stephanoyich, who is the chair
man Of the resolution committee, the
Svetkovites and the reactionaries
