Workers Communist Party
The PIenum Of the Central Committee Of the
Workers Communist Party

the faction struggle in our party. The
resolution did not seek to emphasize
points of difference which may still
exist or to make factional capital out
Of the situation, but find the point of
agreement, as the basis of co-opera-
ton in carrying on the work of the
party,
The attitude OF the leadership Of the
party, expressed in this resolution,
was the dominating spirit of the pie
mum Of the central committee. The
warning of the Communist Interna-
tional that a continuance of fractional
struggle held great danger for the fu-
ture of the party has gone home.
There is a growing determination to
eliminate factional strife and to con-
solidate the party strength for its
work in the labor movement of this
country.
The Trade Union Question.
The question of policy and tactics
Of the party on the trade union field
presented the most serious danger so
far as elimination of group struggles
within the party were concerned. This
question had been the principal issue
in the last appeal before the Commu-
mist International. On this question
the widest differences Of opinion as to
how the party should proceed had
existed
The decision of the Communist In
ternational, while laying down a gen
eral line, left many questions open.
The political committee conducted dis
cussion on these questions before the
plenum in an effort to frame a resolu-
ton which could be unanimously ac-
cepted. The fact that such a unani
nous resolution was drafted and sub
mitted to the central committee for
approval and accepted by it by the
same unanimous vote is the best evil
dence that the party is turning from
the inner struggle toward consolidat
ing itself for the struggle for leader
ship in the labor movement.
The trade union work of the party
took first place in the discussions in
the central committee. The report
and the discussion showed that the
party has come to realize the impor-
lance of its work in this field and
that the greater part of the strength
of the organization is going into this
work.
The resolution adopted by the pie
mum lays down clear guiding lines for
the future development of the trade
union work The policies and tactics
to be pursued will be conveyed to the
party units in instructions giving di-
rections for the guidance of the work
in the concrete situations as they de-
velop.
The DAILY WORKER.
The third point on the agenda was
the question of The DAILY WORKER.
The political committee had come to
the conclusion that The DAILY
WORKER, in its old editorial form,
was not the kind of paper which could
be developed into a mass labor paper
in the United States. A resolution
pointing out the character Of The
DAILY WORKER was drafted by the
editors and approved by the political
committee for submission to the cen
trail committee.

TIDAL WAVE AT FREMONT.
Strange Freak of Nature, as Yet
UnaCcOunted For.

Strange Freak of Nature, as Yet
Unaccountcd For.
Bass Harbor, fremont was the
scene of a strange freak of nature
on Saturday. soon after noon, when
a series of tidal waves of lessening
intensity swept into the harbor at
intervals of about five minutes.
The first wave was varOusly estl-
mated as from eight to ten feet
high. 1t was preceded by a sudden
sucking out of the water, which left
the flats bare and the ice on the
shores stranded. In few minutes
the water returned, moving IN a
giant wave, slowly and majestdcally,
but threateningly, into the harbor
There was the roar of crashing ice
as it reached the shores, and the
water flowed far up on the beaches.
Again the water receded, returning
in a lesser wave. Four times TINS
was repeated before the waters
assumed their normal level Several
boats and lobster cars were swept
from their moorings, but all were re
covered. and the damage from the
strange visitation was slight.
what caused lie wave 10
matter of speculation. 1t was
strangely localized, Southwest Har-
Dor. only three miles away, having
no evidence of it. Old seafarlng men
call it a "bore" a peculiar erect Oh
tidal currents at the mouths OF some
rivers. notably ait the mouth OF the
Amazon river in South America ana
rivers in India and China, but noth-
ing like it has ever been known mere
before. ,r
Chester Sawyer and Forrest Aipee
were the only men on the water at
THE time. They got the surprise OF
their lives when the water suddenly
left from under their boat and II
grounded. They scrambled for the
shore, and reached there before the
wave came.

FOOD FAIR AND CARNIVAL.

This Year, Best and Busiest-Old-
Time Fiddling Contest.
The committee on the food fair
and carnival plans on making the
1926 fair the best yet given in Ellis
worth. Each night there will be a
feature ball. An old-time fiddling
contest between some of the best
young gentlemen violinists lover
sixty years of age) in Hancock coun-
ty, promises much interest. Many
towns have these fiddlers, of whom
they are justly proud. The commit
tee is offering large silver loving
cup for the best one, and already
several have signified their intention
of being at the fair and carrying
home the cup, upon which will be
engraved the winners name and the
occasion.
The wayback ball is also creating
some little stirring around in the
attdcs for old buds, and the balloon
dance, the streamer ball, the valen-
tine party and the Lincoln birthday
ball will also be a source of enjoy
ment for all
There will be "a voting contest, al
ways of interest, the usual games,
and a cooked food sale.
Babe Harrington, with a new or
chestra, better than ever, and a store
of brand new stunts, will play.
Ellsworth begins to look forward
to the food fair as soon as snow
comes, and it has always been a
success. It's success depends on
patronage. All should forget trou-
bles and worries for the week of
February 8, and attend the fair each
day for good time for themselves
and everyone else.

PRESSMEN'S Home, Tenn, Au-
gust 28-The international Print
ing Pressmen and Assistants Union
of North America, in closing sessions
of the biennial convention here yes
terday, declared against illegal strikes
and for the carrying out Of contracts
and expressed themselves in favor
Of the 44-hour work week.
THE 44-hour work week.. the con-
vention declared, lis generally opera
tive in America, because it is fair
work week. It has taken time and
patience to arouse public opinion to
the point of favoring the half holi-
day on Saturday. 1t is now an inter-
national custom.
There will be no retrogression,
but in making this declaration your
committee feels that we should en-
phasize the fact that we will not
now nor are we considering the ques-
ton of a further regulation in the
work week.
1.-THE industry is entitled to, and
this international union, in the judg-
ment of your committee, should see
to it that it is given rest and free
dom from agitations that are totally
out Of tune with logic. The time
does not now, nor does 1T appear In
the immediate future to in the slight
est degree or manner, justify the con-
sideration of REIMBURSEMENT Of the

The report was unanimously
adopted.
The convention decided that 1t would

side of carrying out contracts enter
ed into between local unions Of its
membership and their employers.

Charges that Frank harrington. presi-

workers. had signed n three-year con.
tract with the Peabody Coal Co. OF
Chicago at $25, 900 a year. have been
denied by Stuyvesant Peabody, presi-

The charges, which members OF the

made over the signature of John l..
Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers Of America. accompanied a
demand from Mr.. Lewis that Earring
ton be dismissed or his resignation
obtained. bringing into the open a

two.
MIR. Peabody's denial was made in

walked from the elevator and hur
! ried to her desk.
| A few moments later she had for.
| gotten her embarrassment and had
prevailed upon the office boy to go
out and get some milk, then, using
as saucer the glass receptacle in
tended for the holding of t. e damp
sponges for moistening postage
stamps Ann went down on her
knees and fed the kitten.
The junior partner, whose curios-
ity demanded satisfaction, coming in
unexpectedly, found her that way,
and as he caught the look in her
eyes his own grew very kind.
Half an hour later he and the senior
partner were in conference. Their
conversation was the sequel to one
they had held the previous afternoon,
in which they had agreed that al
though Miss Montague was very eff
cient and capable, they felt that she
was lacking in human sympathy and
therefore would not make a satisfac-
tory Office manager.
What he had seen this morning
had made the junior partner recon
slider his opinion.
IF you had seen her bending over
that kitten, with the most he
stopped a moment, hesitating, then
went on, "the most motherly look in
her eyes, you'd know that she'd not
be hard on the girls, would understand
and make allowances"
The senior partner grunted pleas
antly.
I'm glad Of that. / liked the girl
myself and admired her skill and ac-
curacy, but we can't afford to have a
machine at the head Of our Office"
That afternoon Ann received a sum-
mons from the partners.
She answered 1t with fast-beating
heart.
The interview was short and to the
point.
Miss Montague" said the senior
partner kindly, Miss Darnell is leav-
ing us at the end of the month. Do
you think you can take on her work?'
Ann blushed, then grew pale, glanc-
ing hurriedly at the Junior partner
as though expecting him to interfere.
AS their eyes met something passed
between them, then reluctantly the
junior partner withdrew his glance.
Very quietly, very collectedly, Ann
spoke:
THANK you, Mr.. Sampson, shall
do my utmost to fill her place.
But the mother look he had sur
prised in AIMS eyes haunted the jun
ior partner. He wasn't satisfied till
he had seen it there again as she
looked down upon the new and Jun
iofist" partner.
