OPPORTUNITY PIT. A.
HAS SPOKANE GUESTS

The Opportunity Parent-Teacher AS
sociation met last night for the first
time this season, with Rev. A. b.
Blades in the chair. A group of Off
GERS and members of the Spokane
Council PIT. A. drove out to visit the
Valley circle. A musical program was
given by the Opportunity school, and
the speakers were from Spokane. Mrs.
II. F. Hoesley, president of the Pre-
School Council, talked of the value of
studying the problems of the two to
seven year old child. Mrs. James II.
Robinson, president of the PIT. A.
Council, spoke of the major activities
of the national parentteacher groups;
of the platform endorsing prohibition,
peace, physical education, a national
department of education, and uniform
marriage and divorce laws. She also
explained the parental education pro-
gram being carried out this year by
Spokane Council with its stress on
character education by the home as
we'll as by the school.
In the Council group attending the
meeting were Mr.. and Mrs. o. w.
Hardesty, Mr.. and Mrs. o. w. Young,
Mrs. Hoesley and Mrs. Robinson.

Among the activities of the Spo-
kane Branch of the American Asso-
citation of University Women is one
that stands prominently first in the
hearts of its members, the rest camp
for women and little children, situat-
ed on beautiful upper Twin Lake in
Idaho.
II was eight years ago that the So
cial Service executives asked the Uni
versity Women if they would under
take the financing of rest camp. 1t
was not easy then, for the group of
women working in the A. A. U. w.
organization was small group and
where to get the money was a big
problem But thanks to their UNI
firing efforts the money came. and the
first summer % mothers and GO chill
dren enjoyed vacation at Occur
d'Alene lake, the guests of the Uni
versity Women.
The following summer the camp was
located at Newman lake and in the
summer of 1921 at Loon lake. Then
came the decision to buy their own
camp and in June, 1922, the beautiful
site at Upper Twin Lake was pur-
chased.
Each summer beginning with the
first of July and closing the first of
September the rest camp is main

on lie, new OUTLOOK Oh the luluTe.
A week at the camp means rest to
them-sueh a rest as they may per
haps have dreamed of, but never rea-
lied Here it is not a dream but
reality.
Just sitting down to meal pre-
pared by other hands is real treat.
The freedom from hard work and re-
sponsibility and the assurance that
their Little ones will be cared for,
brings them that contentment that
can only come with peace and happi-
ness.
A matron and her assistant and a
recreational director make up the per
sonnet of the camp. Each one strives
to make the guests comparable and
happy. Each child and adult is en-
couraged and taught to keep the camp
clean and orderly, the benefit of these
lessons can later be seen in their
homes in the city. They all work to-
gether and thus community spirit is
promoted Swimming time is a great
event in the days program. Mothers
and children frolic together and grief
is a thing forgotten. In fact every
hour of the day is a happy one, and
when the time comes to say goodbye
and go back to the little home or the
little room in the city their faces are
very sad and often there are tears.
One dear, little old lady, a guest at
the camp this summer, whispered to
the matron to ask the ladies if she
might come back next summer. When
she was told she would be most well
come she sad she was afraid she
might not live until next summer, but
she would pray that she might come
again.
And so this camp has become per.
manent institution. Maintained for
those who otherwise could not have a
vacation. But to do all this requires
money, so this year the University
Women are sponsoring series of
lectures to be given by Mr.. Viehjalmur
Stefansson in the Lewis and Clark
Auditorium, November Is, II and 20
Mr.. Stefansson's subjects are:
"Abolishing the Arctic" The Friend
ly Arctic" and The Northward Course
of Empire" More than any other man
Mr. Stefansson has been responsible
for change in our outlook upon the
Arctic. He is in a peculiar sense
the philosopher and prophet of the
Arctic. He re-discovered the forgot
ten Canadian Eskimo tribes, discov
cred others and opened up the entire
district of the Northwest passage tC
the initiative of the white man. Each
of their series lectures is complete in
itself, but only by hearing them al
are you able to see the complete pic
ture of the Arctic through the eye!
and mind of one of the greatest think
ers of our times.
The University Women are indeed
fortunate in being able to present sucl
a distinguished explorer and author
as Mr.. Stefansson. He is looked upor
as one of the foremost citizens of thu
world, not only in scientific circles
but among all people.
The committee in charge of thes,
lectures is composed of Mrs. Wesle,
II. Dubois, Mrs. Theodore Burger, Mis-
Carrie Lake, Mrs. Arthur Cowley, Mrs

which would be the main scene OF
military operations if a war breaks
out involving the Soviet Union and
Japan--and this is recognized here
generally as a distinct possibility in
the not distant future-is a country
with about the same area as the states
of Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Ne
braska combined. It's topography, eli
mate, soil and natural resources are
very like that of those states.
It is comparatively sparsely popu-
lated. If as thickly settled as some
of the other provinces Of China, such
for example as Chekiang, It would con-
tain 15O,0O0,O0O people. 1t actually
has only 100000.

very strong, tho the Chinese govern
ment has repudiated the leases and
special concessions which she has OBJ
tanned in the past. Chang Tso Lin
is now entirely under her thumb. The
events Of the past few months have
shown that without Japanese aid he
would have been overthrown in the
Kuo Sung Lin revolt The dictators

Hotels or Hospitals.
The thoroness with which Japan is
preparing for the inevitable war in
Manchuria is shown by the fact that
hotels of a size utterly uncalled for
by any probable demand have been
erected at the principal points along
the South Manchurian Railway, which
is Japanese controlled. These hotels
are completely equipped and have .
staff altogether out Of proportion for
the patronage. A very large and we'll
equipped hospital has been erected at
Dairen, the terminus on the Pacific.
Military observers point out the ease
with which all these could be con-
verted on short notice into war hos
pitfalls.

The Japanese are also building sew
eral branch lines of the railroad, tap
ping the interior of Manchuria and
constituting centers for swift pene-
tration of Siberia.

NEW YORK, March 16-Why should
official organs of the American labor
movement, the American Federation
ist, the Textile Worker, the Interna-
tional Steam Engineer, and other
journals, carry scab advertisements
from the Standard Oil company, the
Passaic scab mills, and many other
scab companies?
Workers Blood Still on Their Fingers.
Who doesn't remember the strike
in 1916 in the Standard Oil plants in
Bayonne, where working men and wo-
men were killed? We can still re-
member the Ludlow tragedy of 1916
where women and children were
smothered to death by the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company in which cor
poration Rockefeller had the largest
interest. In spite of all this, the Of
fetal organs Of the American Fedora
tion of Labor and the other journals
of affiliated internationals help to
Organize" the workers by carrying
scab advertisements.
ONe of the bitterest struggles is be-
ing waged by 1900 textile workers
in Passaic, N. ]. for the last six
weeks. Pickets are being dubbed and
thrown into Jail daily; the police hurl
tear bombs into the crowds picketing
the Botany Worsted mills. Yet the
American Federation of Labor and the
United Textile Workers advertise the
Botany Worster mills and the Forst-
man and Hoffman mills in their jour
nails. Is this not a tragedy? A labor
organization used as scab agency!
There is a monthly journal pub
lished in New York at sc Duane St.,
called the American Labor World. On
the outside cover page we are told
the following:

in the structure of our unions, it is
not only an organizational question.
"It is not the result Of our ability,
herein our country--to build the
trade unions better than others. n
is the result of particular policy;
it is the result of our revolution; the
result of all our Soviet trade union

is the characteristic of our trade

movement represents a higher type in
comparison with those of Western
Europe and America.

FINALLY, the third distinction of
your union is the fact that you con-

"You are the standard bearers OF
that dictatorship. You. too, are the

than half of humanity living in Asia,
is stirring.
"This gigantic mass has now been
put into motion. And in that gigantic
mass, growing up at the present time,
the struggle Of the working class is
beginning to play prominent role.
These unions, the unions of these
lands, always gravitate toward the
Soviet Union and the Red Interna-
tional OF Trade Unions, because here
in Soviet Russia in our revolutionary
international they can find real help,
and real cooperation in their difficult
struggle against world Imperialism.
Comrades Aid Unions.
Comrades, your union is now the
mightiest among the unions of agri-
cultural workers of other countries.
But your union has not yet solved all
Of the problems which confront you.
Every one OF you will OF course admit
that very, very much is yet TO be
done, in order that the 100000 mass
which is united by your union may
prepare thousands and tens OF thous-
ands Of active fighters and workers
for the purpose Of uplifting the most
backward masses in our trade union
movement.

Woll, ]. P. Frey and other. The
editor and the others responsible for
this paper make thousands of dollars
thru scab advertisements. Yet, the
officialdom of the American Fedora
ton of Labor allows this sheet to
carry their names as contributors. Does
the membership of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor know about this?
I looked thru the convention pro
ceedings of the American Federation
Of Labor and l did not find that any
one ever took up the question of scab
advertisements in the official organs
Of the American Federation of Labor
and their affiliated unions. To recog-
nize and give its name to paper
which carries on slander and lies
about everything that is Of interest to
workers, and for leaders to be per-
mitted to be contributors to such a
paper is the height of folly.
1t is about time the progressives in
the unions took up these matters, and
brot them before their unions, Central
Labor Unions, State Federations, and
at the American Federation of Labor
conventions.
The DAILY WORKER must take
the lead and inform the progressives
who don't read these journals. So the
progressives will be able to inform the
members in the unions that the Bot
any Worsted, and Forstman and Hoff-
man mills Of Passaic, N. j., where
workers are striking, are advertised in

Ry a worker correspOndent

NEW YORK, March 16.-The United
States Shipping Board employment
oflce at Carlisle street is nothing
more than an open shop shipowners'
recruiting agency. Before this office
hundreds Of workers wait for chance
to work on board ship. In the line
can be found workers Of the different
races waiting with documents in their
hands for the man in charge to call
out "black gang" or liable seaman"
When l handed my passport to the
man who called out a job on the
George Washington l was asked
where my discharge from the last
ship was. told the employment office
head l had lost it. He told me that
it was no use for me to look for work
there until found my discharge slip.
There are all kinds Of blacklist
schemes and stoolpigeons in industry,
but the seafaring worker finds that he
is up against the hardest kinds OF
blacklist schemes. On board ship
there are always a number Of stool
pigeons ready to sell their fellow
worker for a few dollars extra. Even
the so-called United States Shipping
Board, run by the government, aids
in blacklisting seamen.
Sanitary and working conditions on
board ships are the worst imaginable.
A local burning fireman has the worst
of the entire crew and for his hard
work he gets a measley $50 a month.
On some ships he receives less than
that.
The seafaring workers are unorgan-
lied with the exception of a few in
dividuals. Furuseth is using eigh-
teenth century organization methods
in the twentieth century. The need
for union organization among seafar-
ing workers grows greater and greater
every year. There is but one way to
organize the industry and that is thru
a united front of all of the seafaring
workers including the Marine Trans
port Workers Union and the Com
munist workers.
