declaration that Secretary Of State
Kellogg and not the liberal regime in
Nicaragua, would be responsible for
any demonstrations there in which
Nicaraguan or American lives might
be lost, was made today by Pedro
Zcpeda, representative Of the liberal
interests here.
Zepeda said that he had been au-
thorized by DR.. Juan Sacasa, head of
the liberal government set sup at
Puerto Cabezas in opposition to the
regime Of President Diaz, which has
been recognized by the United States,
to guarantee foreign lives and prop
crty if American marines were with
drawn from Nicaragua.
"Otherwise," he added, eve will not
be responsible for any manifestation
of popular indignation owing to out
RACES by the occupying forces against
the liberals, placing the responsible
ity on Secretary Kellogg tor any up
rising in which Nicararuan or Amer
lean lives may be lost"
He also SAID that recent extension
Of the neutral zone to Rama on the
Escondo river was unjustified, "there
being no foreign interests in that
section which is in the heart Of the
mountains"

industry and restoring the conditions
that have been lost in the last eight
years. The greatest difficulty was
the fact that there were two unions
in the field and a convention was to
take up this problem. Kutcher, fear
ing that he may be in the minority
with his policy, which has made the
Amalgamated Intellectual, decided not
to recognize the convention.
In true bureaucratic style he finally
called general membership meeting
in an unusual way. But finding out
that he was in the minority even there
the meeting was arbitrarily adjourned
without permitting the question to
come to a vote. The strong sentiment
amongst the members against
Kutcher's conduct and policies is be-
ing resented by the members more
than ever, and shows that the posi-
bility of making Roadway in unioniz-
ing the metal machinery trade in New
York has more prospects of results
than ever before.

The alteration painters who have

An extraordinary circumstance about certain personal

The first lie is that my contributions to the Voks

him and his doings: Whenever he writes article for
them he always makes surrng remark about the Rand
School and my connection with it."

The union wrecking epidemic seems
to have caught the imagination even
of the bosses in this trade. The ex-
listing window cleaning union has I'M
proved the conditions of the workers
in the last strike and hence the bosses
were looking for ways of breaking the
agreement. They sent few OF their
agents into the union in order if pos
sible to capture it, but having been
miserably defeated these agents called
a meeting to form a new union. Hav-
ing had no response they tried again
to continue disruption at regular union
meetings. By this time the members
had become wise to their schemes and
they were expelled. Whereupon they
set up, with the support of the bosses,
headquarters for a new union and the
bosses began to break their agree
ments one after the other and recog-
nize this new union until up to now
about SO bosses have relations with
this scab union formed by themselves
forcing these workers to join this new
union in regular Matthew Woll style.
The regular union, however, is not
falling asleep and is preparing to
teach the employers lesson. A SER

live up to the agreement which they
signeds can be expected in the very
near future.

vention of the Pan-American Fedora
ton of Labor cannot do less than

act not tomorrow but today. Let us
suspend the rules, and adopt this
resolution now. 1t should be done
unanimously"
But the rules prevailed. Green,
who was in the chair, looked a little
annoyed, pounded on the table with
his gavel and stated tersely that
there would be no further discussion
on the matter until the resolutions
committee brought in its report.
At the first meeting of the resolu-
tions committee it was plain that the
resolution will not be allowed to go
thru in its original form. Woll in
sisted that some changes would have
to be made, Gin Difference to the feel

Luis N. Morones, head of the MeXi-
can delegation. A tussle of three
hours ensued in the committee, at
the conclusion of which a sub-com-
mittee completely controlled by Vol

task of drawing up a substitute for

Noonan of the electricians) toward
concrete manifestations of American
Imperialism, is all the more glazing
because it follows close upon the alb
stract stand for self-determination
of peoples contained in President
Green's welcoming remarks to the
delegates at the opening session of
the convention The speech, while
carefully avoiding any direct criticism
of the United States government,
nevertheless did try to make an ap-
proach to Latin-American sentiment
in a way which contrasted sharply
with the keynote addresses of Samuel
Gompers at previous conventions of
the Pan-American Federation of La
Dor.
Before the opening of the conven-
ton there was much speculation
among the visitors as to what the at
titude of the Mexican delegations
would be. Green stabbed the Mexi-
can labor movement in the back dur
ing the recent conflict with the
Catholic reaction in Mexico, which
was intimately connected with the
struggle with American imperialism
over Mexico's oil and land laws and
which theatened all the conquests of
the Mexican revolution. AT the height
of the Catholic rebellion, the Mexican
Confederation of Labor &C. R. o. NJ
appealed for support to the Pan
American Federation of Labor. Green
did not even make this appeal public,
and when it was sent out to the news
papers from Mexico, he answered
with an ambiguous statement cham
pioning religious liberty" and de-
claring that in any case the struggle
of the Mexican workers was a purely
domestic affair" in which he could
not intervene.

milton of Sacosa by the Mexican gov

Aside from the C. R. o. M. of Mex
leo and the Free Federation of
Workers of Porto Rico (which is not
an independent body but an affiliated
section of the American Federation

In most cases they represent paper
organizations which have no real

aloud in the convention thus far.
Their chief activity has been to fan
themselves vigorously during the
tedious reading of the officers, re-
port,--which by the way, consisted
almost exclusively of letters ex-
change between William Green, the
President of the United States and
other important personages, with in
cidental attacks against the Com
munists, the larger labor declarations

can Anti-Imperialist League.

WOLL SOFTENS The NICARAGUA RESOLUTION

Continued From Column q
eminent, of which delegate Morones
is an important cabinet member, and
because of the general sympathy of
Mexicans for Nicaragua and the other
victims of American Imperialism, it
was thought by some that the C. r.
Q. M. delegates here might have to
make at least some show of resis-
tence to the American Federation of
Labor policies at this convention.
Others, more familiar with the in
ternal politics of the Pan-American
Federation of Labor, foretold that the
e. r. 0. M. delegates would Guido
themselves trying to reestablish their
place firmly in the good graces of
Green and his associates of the
American Federation of Labor exec
utive council. This has proved to be
the case. From Morones' speech in
reply to Green's greeting on the
opening day, and from his attitude
in the resolutions committee, it is
already plain that the Mexican dele
cation and the American Federation
of Labor bureaucrats will present a
solid front on all major questions.
Morones' opening day speech was
far more reactionary than Green's,
which at least played within libertar-
ian phrases. 1t did not contain a
single progressive sentence. 1t did
not mention Mexioo's differences with
the United States government and
with the American oil, mining and
financial magnates. 1t was one long
harangue against "the Reds" The
peroration was paen of praise for

And cursed and quickly caught another one
Upon his shoulder, cleaning in the sun
With sweat that his whole body ran
He stopped and grasped his greasy hat to fan
His forid face and wished his work done.
"This job" he grinning said, ''Is no dam fun
Summers no picnic for the garbage mani"
But what to him the stencil that thickly
Around him there. His squeamish pang
He seemed to thrive on i'll held my nose.
