KEEP WHIPPING TREE

bU NEA NtFTICG
WEWOKA, Okla, Jan. 31.-The
Seminole Indians went on the war
path again recently. The cause
was a move to cut down an oak
tree on the courthouse lawn. Til
tree is known as "the whipping
tree" and was used by the Cherokees
and later by SeminoIes as a place
for punishment by tribal laws.

GAY BACHELORS

VIENNA, Jan. 31.-With more
than 100000 bachelors in Vienna,
marriage is becoming more and more
unpopular with the young men. In
1925 the marriages numbered only

drawback. The birth rate is said to

Breach Between Pope,
MussOIini Widening; Both
Making Sharp Criticisms

ROME, Jan. 24.-The breach
between the vatican and the fas-
cist government is widening and
becoming more apparent as Off
cist government is widening and
of both the government and church
are making charges against each
other. The Tribuna has published
attacks on Cardinal Gasparri, the
pope's secretary of state, denounc-
ing him for expressing sympathy
with the French government in its
fight against royalist catholics.
Tribuna charges the vatican is
supporting the French masonic or
ganizations "who represent the
opinions of the same men who
carry on the fight without quar-
ter against fascism." This lenien-
cy toward masonry must not be
overlooked, the paper says.
Unita, a papal organ, complains
bitterly against the new eduea-
tional laws of the government, in
which it sees an attempt to take
the youth from church control.
These latest outbreaks followed
the severe criticism of fascism by
Pope Plus last month, when he de-
livered an ALLEGATION declaring fas-
cism was dangerous to the "spiri-
tual welfare" of the people.

Workers ThrOng Picket
Line in Early Morning

yesterday morning to picket the Cloak
and dress shops that have been called
on strike by the joint board because
of discharges of workers who had re-
fused to register with the Interna-
tional, or lockouts made against the
workers by employers.
The picket lines were harried by
gangsters who were under the direct
supervision of Vice President Dublin
sky and Organizers Auretsky and
Dutti of the international. One work
er was beaten severely over the head
by a gangster who escaped.
Bosses Aid Sigman.
The shops that have been called on
strike are the Henry Block dress shop
at 247 West 37th Street, where
lockout of % workers was declared,
at Rosenberg and Erskine dress shop
at 345 West 35th Street, against a
lockout, at the |. NJ. Raffor cloak
shop at $40 Eighth Avenue, all of
which have discharged workers for
refusing to register with the Inter-
national and so aid the union-smash-
ing activities of Sigmanism. In the
Newman and Stoinlouf shop at 236
West 26th Street, and the Lemmel
and Cutler shop at 142 West oath
Street, other workers were discharged
and the shop called on strike.
Pickets who responded to the call
for demonstration at those shops
came from the general trade, as well
as from struck shops, in order to
show their solidarity against the tao
tics of the International in demand
ing that the workers register, and in
persuading employers to discharge
workers who refuse.
Workers to Fight Betrayal.
"The workers resent and will fight
against such betrayals by Of
ficers who are supposed to protect
their interests" declared Louis Hy-
man, manager of the joint board, in
discussing the calling of the strikes.

SHOP CHAIRMEN
SCORE SIGMAN;
INSIST ON FACTS
Show Injury to Union from
His Tactics

The Shop Chairmen's Council of
the Cloak and Dressmakers union, /.
L. G. w. U. has issued an answer to
president Sigman, refuting his
charges made against them in the
capitalist press, and demanding
proof, also calling on him to consider
the union more and his factional in
terests less. 1t is as follows:
'The shop chairman's council in
answer to the attack that president
Sigman made in yesterdays press
upon the shop chairman's council say
ing that the council is a tool in the
hands of the Communists and that
the council is a new agency for Com
munist trouble makers.
We declare that this method the
president is using now is an old one.
II is the method of drowning out
with noise, of tearing down everyone
that does not believe that the union
can be led by brutal force.
The Chairmen's council makes
clear that the council is not a Com
munistic one and is not a tool of the
Communists. Furthermore, we chal-
lenge the president to prove his state
ments openly.
We think it is proved, either the
president doesn't know what he says
or he has said it purposely with bad
motives to tear down the council and
give the impression that we are
agents of the Communists. The facts
are that the council was elected by
a thousand shop chairmen and has
only one intention, which is nothing
else than 20 save our union. the Cloak
and Dress Makers Union. which is
being ruined from day to day. The
union cannot be saved by the knout
or by terror. Union conditions are
70 longer maintained in the shops:
the workers are confused and the
bosses are taking advantage Of it.
The bosses are the only gamers.
The effects are that wages are re-
duced and many workers are dis
charged, and to stop all this nothing
is done by the International.
We ask the president whether this
is fact or not?
If this is a fact, then what does
he expect to do to stop this evil?
Does he think that with attacks
upon the shop chairman's council that
ne win save the situation? Or docs
he believe that after he registers

The statement says in part:
Chen declared that foreigners can
no longer be protected by foreigI
bayonets in China since China car
fight back with the economic h)ycott.
"The leading assumption OF all
British and other foreign declarations
of policy in regard to China is that
she is unable to look after her own
interests and that pursuant to the
spirit Of the Washington conferences
the powers must enter into self-deny-
ing ordinances regarding China in
order to safeguard her integrity and
independence, promote her political
development, rehabilitation and her

wish to grant China to meet -iegiti-
mate aspirations in the Chinese ma
tion, but what Nationalist China may
justly grant Great Britain and the
other powers.
win Protect Life.
This great, impressive fac. must
b; grasped.
To-day effective protection of for

and can no longer stand on foreign
bayonets and foreign gunboats be-
cause the arm of the Chinese Ma
tionalist-the economii yeapon--is
more puissant than any engine of
warfare that foreigners can devise.
"The British in particular must un-
derstand that the forces in the pres
ent revolutionary situation are hand
ing over protection of foreign life
and property to the government that
derives its authority from those in
whose hands is centored power that
can paraiyze the ecoDcmic life Of the

1t is, however, the view Of the
Nationalist Government that lirera-
