MYSTERY TURKISH
 BATHS REVEALED;
 PLACE 0F GOSSIP
WITH PASSING OF THE BATHS ORIENTAL WOMEN LOSE COS.
 SIP HOUR

CAIRO, Egypt, Feb IA. (P-The Turkish bath, one of the most pie turesque of Oriental customs, is dis. appearing in Egypt, swept away by the march of Western civilization.
 There is much regret among the middle class Egyptian women, for to them the Turkish bath was what the back fence is to American women "a place to meet and gossip.
 The Egyptian baths generally con- sist of two large chambers-the outer changing room, the inner for wash ing. In the women's bath on busy day the possessor of handsome fig ure receives compliments of a frank ness which would be embarrassing to American ears.
 The rital of the "hammam" is rig orous. A woman is seated on a stool while several pails of hot water are poured over her. Her hair is then washed in pure olive oil soap ofrm Nabulus, which is finally rinsed off with more hot water. This operation is repeated several times. "Kha- wa" earth is then rubbing into roots, followed by more housings with hot water. A lengthy combing of the scalp with a thick-toothed ivory comb is followed by massage with henna and "Khawa" earth.
 The body is then massaged with thick glove made of black goats wool and lined with white linen. The feet are rubbed with pumice stone and the face and hands with specially pre- pared marrow bone. After an inter val the whole business is repeated, ending with brisk scrubbing by girl attendant armed with a we'll soaped loofah and finally more deliges of hot water.
 A cool-off with more coffee and cig- arettes ends the ritual.

DAM BILL PRODUCES
 ACRES OF TESTIMONY

WASHINGTON, Feb. IA. (P)-Thir- ty-seven acres would be covered if the pages of testimony taken by the House irrigation committee on the Swing-Johnson Boulder Canyon dam bill were spread out side by side.
 This estimate is made by V. B. Walters, the committee clerk, who says that more than 4,2OO pages, mak- ing 17 volumes, or testimony were taken during the four years spent in considering the measure. The bill, recently reported to the House, pro- poses construction of big flood-con- trol, irrigation and power dam at Boulder Canyon on the Colorado river.
 Walters also figures that the com mittee held v meetings of which "A were executive. These consumed 145 and a fraction hours, and the day the bill was reported, Rep. Swing of Cali fornia, one of it's authors, remarked:
 "The bill was considered thorough ly in every detail"

The Coal Miners Want an Effective Strike Policy

9.-The favorable reception by the

Lewis machine made by John Brophy

movement has been laid as a result
of long continued left wing agitation,
the increasingly difficult position Of
the union, the complete failure Of the

cept toward defeat and the establish
ment of an autocracy within the
union.
First, no one knows better than the
Illinois miners that support of Howat,
whom the Lewis machine has pcrse.
cuted Systematically for six years, is
a declaration of war upon the Lewis
administration. Therefore the sup
port of Howat by the Peoria conven-
ton is no accident but notification
to the Lewis machine that the Illinois
miners will no longer remain passive
in the face of his war upon militants

claimed: "Down with the reaction

in face Of the fact that he was and
is the outstanding leader of the
struggle against the Lewis machine.
The reception accorded his statement
and program leave no doubt that the
strike has awakened every honest
member of the UMWA to the grave
danger which the union-and the
whole labor movement-faces as a re-
suit of the criminal desertion of the
fighting tradition of the union by the
Lewis machine and its substitution of
war upon the militant rank and file
for war upon the coal barons.

Ay " A@AAAfAA - ~ NANL
THE rank and file Of the United
Mine Workers of America want a
fighting policy.
This is the conclusion that can be
drawn definitely from events in the
UMWA occurring within the last
month.
Three major occurrences testify to
the readiness of large sections of the
membership-both in the bituminous
districts and in the anthracite-to
challenge both the defeatist policy of
the Lewis machine and it's tyrannical
treatment of militant rank and filters.
The most important recent events
indicating a revival Of direct struggle
against the Lewis machine can be
listed as follows:
1.-The invitation to Alex Howat
extended by the Peoria. convention of
District -, Illinois (the largest dis
trict of the union) and the demand
made by the convention for his re-
instatement. x
2.-The demand made for The re-
instatement of Dziengelewski TAX

onintang exiled last year by Chang
Kai-shek and now returned on the re-
quest of the central committee. Here
also, the slogan was: "Down with
Chang Kai-shek."
Yesterday april 10) was published
a joint statement by Wang Ching-wei
and Chen Tu-shiu, secretary of the
Chinese Communist Party, issued at
Shanghai on April 5, of which the fol-
lowing are extracts:
"The Communist Party of China al
ways has recognized frankly and
honestly that the Kuomintang and the
Three Peoples Principles laid down
by our late leader, Sun Yat-sen, are
the foundation of the nationalist
movement. 1t is only counter-revo-
lutionaries who seek to overthrow the
San Min principles of the Kuomin-
tang, and it is only counter-revolu-
tionaries who seek to split the nation
alist front :"
"It is true that the Communist
Party and the Kuolnintang have diff
ferent programs, but the essential
points for the members of both par
ties is that they be guided by the
spirit of earnest cooperation in their
struggle for a free united China.
Those who understand the Communist
Party conception of the revolution
and the Communist Party attitude
toward the Kuomintang will certainly
not doubt the wisdom of Sun Yat-sen
in saying that the two parties should
cooperate"
At the present moment it is already
clear that the masses have rallied
with enthusiasm to the newly reor-
ganized nationalist government. And
while the struggle to purify the party
internally grows more intense, at the
same time the military expedition to
the North, toward Picking, proceeds
without delay.

posing the true character of the
Lewis machine, will at the same time
mobilize the union membership for
organization of the non-union fields,
utmost resistance to the union-smash-
ing program of the coal barons and
the recognition of John Brophy as the
rightful president of the United Mine
Workers of America.
UPON the left wing in the UMWA
rests now double responsibility
that of mobilizing the progressives
and the whole membership for WIN
hing the strike, saving and building
the union and of establishing its
leadership in the union and making
its program the official program of
the UMWA.
To defeat the drive of the coal
barons is to defeat the Lewis
machine. The union can not win un-
less the Lewis machine is defeated
and the conduct of the strike taken
over by the "Save the Union" bloc.
This is the immediate task of the
left wing in the UMWA.
Once more, in the most important
union in the American labor move
nent, the left wing appears as the
only force honestly and ably fighting
the enemies Of the working class.
