BY PAT pEVENE.

THE first day of May celebrations
L in Britain were held with the
threat of a miners strike hanging over
the country. On every platform there
were speakers advising the workers
to prepare to assist the miners and
advocating that a general strike be
called if mine owners persisted in
their attempts to reduce the miners
standard of life. Withal, there were
few sanguine enough to expect that
the general strike would be called.
The Communists and left wingers
urged the workers and the leaders to
go into the fight in earnest The mod
crates or right wingers urged patience,
saying everything would come all
right-that a way out would be found.
In view of the Emergency Powers
Act, proclaimed by the govern
ment the night previous, the Commu-
nists were listened to with more at
tention than the moderates. The en-
thusiasm that day all over Britain
showed the feelings Of the masses on
the question-at all costs the miners
must not be allowed to fight alone.
The experience Of the past had thrust
upon the workers the realization of
the fact that a defeat to the miners
was a defeat to the whole movement.
At Fever Heat.
A IL day the enthusiasm was at fe-
a yer heat. Towards six o'clock,
when meetings we're over, the news
came through that the general strike
had been called. August 4th, 1914 was
memorable day in the history of the
world, but May 1, 1926 will go down
in working class history as the mile
stone, declaring to the world that
solidarity had been accepted by the
workers. Electricity was in the air.
Rebels of 20 and 30 years. standing

captured everyone. Those workers

the central committee resolutions.
There is suficient sentiment for the
formation OF labor party TO develop
a movement broader than that OF 1928
1924. This sentiment must be given
organizational expression thru the in
itiative of the party. The formation
of network of labor party commit
tees viii achieve that aim, and the
party must take up the work of form
ing such committees in earnest.
The Municipal Elections.
.DURING the year 1927 city elections
- will take place in many Of the
states. These elections must also be
made the means of carrying on the
agitation and organization work for
the formation of labor party.
The district organizations of the
party must at once secure information
in regard to the states in which city
elections take place during next year
and raise the slogan Of "A United La.
Dor Ticket in the City Election in
every city in which such elections are
to be held
The time to take action in order to
place united labor tickets in the field
in the city elections is NOW. There
has been too much lack of prepare
ton for election campaigns by the
party. In the last elections we failed
to place candidates on the ballot in
many states because the party did
not make preparations early enuf.
The party must learn that the cleo
ton campaigns are Of the utmost i'm
portance in establishing contact with
the workers and to carry on Commun-
ist agitation, and to take full advan-
tage Of the opportunity they offer.
! The workers cannot be modified
for independent political action in the
city elections upon national issues. 1t
is weakness of our party that it does
not concern itself sufficiently with the
issues affecting the life of the work
ers in the cities. Most of our party
organizations know little and concern
themself less with the political issues
of the cities in which they exist. 1t is
easy to throw out the slogan, A Work

BOLEY IS

MACKM EN-
Baltimore Club Gets Cash
and Three Players for
Star ShortStop.

BR United Press
BALTIMORE, Oct. 16.--Joe Boley
goes to the Athletics, it was an
nounced officially by Jack Dunn,
manager Of the Orioles, today.
The Baltimore club Will receive
cash and three players in return for
the star shortstop, according to
Dunn. The purchase price was not
made known, but it is believed to
be high, for Dunn previously had
placed a price of 100000 on Boley.
1t is believed Chick Galloway,
for several years shortstop of the
Athletics, will be one of the players
in return for Boley.
The sale of Boley is the third star
that Jack Dunn has disposed of to
Connie Mack within the last few
years. He sold Bishop to the Ath-
letics in 1924, and Lefty Grove the
following year.
Boley came to the orioles in 1919
and was a star from the start. Not
only was he regarded as a great
fielder, but also a dangerous man
with the bat, although his hitting
fell off in the closing stages of the
1926 season.

Ownie Bush, peppery pilot Of the
Indians the past three years, and
the little whippet field general of
the American Association, appears
to be the hub Of early stove league
rumors.
He has been working on a one
year contract basis with owner
Smith OF the Tribe and he has not
signed an Indian contract for 1927.
But there is not a thing
mysterious about me not signing
another contract with Smith" BUSH
said today, because l never signed

Be that as it may. Ownie's name
continues to be mentioned in big
league managerial rumors that are
circulating about the country.

He came out fatty today. how
ever, and put at rest the report
that he would succeed George
Sisler as manager of the St. Louis
Americans. fIe said he understood
he had been recommended for the
job of Brownie pilot, but denied re-
ceiving an offer.
There has been so many rumors
Of other managerial changes in the
major circuits that they led to n
quiz of Bush concerning them, but
he said he didn't care to discuss his
1927 plans until he talked with Presi-
dent Smith of the Indians.

BIG LEAGUE MANAGERIAL.
RUMORS CENTER ON BUSH
From What Friends Gather, Popular Tribe Pilot Will Re-
turn to Majors With Strong Club.

turn TO the big show with a promi-
nent and strong club he certainly
will accept it.
And his friends are betting that he
will receive a fat. juicy offer. Big
league club owners always are on
the lookout for managers Of Bush 5
type. He has sent so many players
TO the majors during his three years
as indianapolis pilot THAT his talent
surely has not been overlooked.
And the boys he has sent up
have carried tales of Ownie's ability
with them. Furthermore, Bush still
is credited in big league circles with
laying the foundation Cor winning
club at Washington when he man
aged therd n 1928.
Owner Smith wants Ownie TO stay
and will be greatly disappointed if he
leaves. In fact, the departure Of
Bush may change the entire plans Of
the Indians of 1927. and it wouldn't
be a surprise to many local baseball
followers if Smith sells the fran
chise.
The One Assurance
Smith appears to be certain of
one thing. however, and that is If
Bush remains in the American AS
ISOLATION he will stick with the In
dams.
IF you go TO the majors, Ownie,
will you recommend a new manager
here?" was the question asked Bush
today, and he replied that he would
not unless Owner Smith sought his
advice.
There are certain teams in the
majors l would not manage, but
of course. there are others that
would appeal to me" Bush stated.
Il would enjoy getting a chance
i'm the world series as a manager
and l don't intend to pass up an
opportunity to pilot a strong major
league club"
