ing charges Of grand larceny against young bank
clerk, who was accused of stealing of money
from the county, meets with the approval Of great
number of persons Interested IN the case.
Whatever Of evidence brought against the
youth extremely flinsy and unsubstantiated. a
statement to this effect made by the justice be-
fore whom the youth given preliminary hear
ing, and also by the judges who gave him his free
dom a writ OF habeas corpus.
Many Ell Centro residents were hoping thai this
young would be given clean bill of health. To
have condemned him the accusation made against
him would have been a miscarriage of justice
Even with yesterdays action by the court taken into
consideration, the youth has been made to suffer a
deep humiliation ard it is be hoped tha. the conf
dence shown il him by his employers will induce the
young man TO remember that there many who have
1aith in him and that the unfortunate accusation made
does not mean that against him.
No one who knows the county treasurer will doubt
for moment that she honest IN her conviction
that the accusation juStifiable but 1t was case

was nothing in his character reputation TO give

Workers School 10
Open TOdayj;ExpGCt
Hundreds to Enroll

The Workers School, which opens
its fifth year on October 10th, is more
than a training school for active par
Elephants in the labor movement. It
is part of the labor movement.
1t supplies speakers for strike meet
ings, organizers for unorganized
workers, its student body and the
school as an institution participated
in such campaigns as the fight for
Sacco and Vanzetti, the Hands Off
China campaign, the Passaic relief,
etc. 1t has stimulated workers educa-
ton in the trade unions of New York
and many other cities. It supplied
teachers and established classes in
Passaic, Elizabeth, Paterson, Newark
and Philadelphia, Harlem, Brooklyn
and the Bronx. It sent lecturers as
far as Boston, New Haven, Hartford
Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washing
ton and sent nlimeographed course out
lines to industrial centers all over the
United States. 1t trained teachers
who are now directing classes in Bal
tlmore, Boston, Akron, Cleveland and
other cities. 1t hopes eventually to
establish chain of Workers Schools
turnout the country and correspond
ence courses for self-study.
All workers, therefore, who wish to
serve the labor movement in the
double capacity of directly participant
ing in the class struggle and at the
same time preparing for more effec-
tive work therein, should attend the
Workers School. Registration begins
on Monday, September 10Th.

U.S.S.R. Experts
On Fruit Trading
Study in America

A delegation of fruit experts rep
resenting Soviet trading organizations
which market about 100000 metric
tons of fruit yearly has arrived in this
country to make a study of the Amer
lean fruit industry and to place orders
for fruit canning and drying equip
ment, it was announced yesterday by
the Amtorg Trading Corporation
which handles purchases of machin-
cry for the Soviet Union.
According to members of the dele
cation only 25 per cent of the Soviet
Union normal fruit crop of 100000
tons is usually delivered to the prin-
cipal consuming centers of the coun-
try. This condition is due to insult
ficient transportation means. as we'll
as to the lack of modern facilities for
conserving fruit and vegetables. AS
much as one half Of the fruit crop goes
to waste. 1t is with a view to con-
serving the crop for domestic con-
sumption that the Soviet government
proposes the establishment of a num-
Der of plants for dying and canning
fruit to be equipped in accordance with
the most modern requirements.
THE United States with its highly
developed fruit canning and drying
industry has been naturally chosen
for our study of production methods.
We expect also to purchase in this
country machinery for several fruit
canneries and drying plants" stated
Mr.. NJ. Zlotin, member Of the dele
cation. Other members are A. N.

Minneapolis Upholstery
Workers in Long Strike;
Conference to Aid Them

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, (By MaiD
The upholsterers' strike, conducted
by Local Union No. 81 at Brooks Par
Tor Furniture Co. is now over three
weeks old
In spite of all shameful tactics en-
ployed by this firm with faithful as
sistance of Citizens Alliance, the out
standing scab and breaking
agency of our city, the solid front OF
strikers could not be broken. Ever
such inducements as SIS per week
and 500 bonus were not strong
enough to penetrate thru the cement
wall of determined strikers and de
stroy their united fight and courage
Instead of that, the number OF
strikers have increased and now rep.
resents front of $50 faithful SOL
diers of one union.
Later the company and Citizens AL
lance secured the arrest of five strike
leaders and is trying to frame-ur
these workers. But strikers hold then
ground.
Families Stand.
Behind the strikers are standing
their families, who regularly are
helping the strikers on the picket line
One often can find wives and children
marching back and forth with strik-
ers. They realize that when their hus-
bands come home from work tired,
with the pay check not enough to
buy food and clothing for the family,
the cause of their troubles they lay
at the door of owners of industry with
their speed-up system.

Railway Mail Union
Avoiding Strikes,
Still Dissatisfied

WASHINGTON, Sept. 18-Back
from the 18th national convention at
Boston, officers of the Railway Mail
Association, the A. F. of L. union
of the railway postal service, sketch
ed the unions program for the COM
ing biennium. Primary in the legis-
lation to be asked of congress is the
Kelly postal policy bill providing that
the post office department. shall be
conducted for service rather than
profit Otherwise the department will
be forced into the dilemma of oppres-
sive postal on industry or low
wages and bad working conditions for
the men in the service.
Wages and conditions of postal
workers must be based on American
standards, the union argues. mas
much as the organization has no
right to strike, its standards must-be
judged against those of union work
ers who do establish the going wage
rates and brought up to their level
the association insists. Other po2ts
in the legislative program include9
. Dual hour and mileage bill for road
clerks.
A time differential in favor of
night workers.
A more rigid steel mail car law
Highee wages, vacation and sick
leave for substitutes.
44-hour week for terminal, trans
fer and office clerks.
$1,000 retirement annuity, with
provision for payment of so per cent
of the annuity to the widow.
The union demands the end of the
speed up system introduced by Will
Hays and Harry New, the republican
postmaster generals. Thirty days
for vacation instead of Is is also
sought.
The convention made no demand
for general wage increases but in
iorsed the principle of additional pay
for long service. An increase of 500
at the beginning of the tenth year
and 500 additional for each five
year period thereafter was recon-
nended.
Additional funds were voted for or
ganization work. Insurance benefits
for disability due to accidents were
raised from $21 to $24.50. The as
ISOLATION has paid nearly $250,000 in
weekly benefits to $500 members in
he past two years and $65, 1000 to the
oeneficiaries of 10 members killed on
luty.
All national officers were re-elect-
I'd. They include President w NJ.
Collins, H. w. Strickland, industrial
secretary and editor; Vice-President
J. F. Bennett and Secretary R. E.
Ross.

ferring that their bodies should be
ruined by excesses and disease, than
that they should have time and condi-
tions which would allow them to
think. And on the other hand forces,
the people Of the conquered races by
starvation to sell their daughters into
prostitution.
The Plague VIII Spread.
These are already the results Of
the war which Imperialism is carrying
on in China. The fathers, brothers
and husbands of British and Amer
lean women are over there at this
moment in damp unhealthy climate
in miserable quarters with no distrac-
tons, but the canteen or the brothel.
These things are amply verified from
letters from the men. What does it
mean to you, their wives and chill
dren when they come home, if they
come home? If they are not wounded
or manned, drunkenness and venereaI
diseases will have laid hold of them.
What does it mean to the Chinese
women-to these little girls of Ia or
IS? This is what any and every war
inevitably means and the capitalist
system cannot exist without eyer pro-
ducing more and more wars.
The women of the world must stop
wars. No disarmament conferences
will do it, but they can by joining with
the united front of the working class.
The slogan of all women must be
direct action-any action-to stop
war.
