COOLIDGE GIVES
FLYING CROSS TO
YOUNGLINDBERGH
Welcome Used for War
Propaganda

WASHINGTON, June 12.-With
his customary banalities and profuse
stupidities, Calvin Coolidge, yesterday
bestowed the distinguished flying
cross upon Charles A. Lindbergh by
way Of giving him an official well
come on his return from France,
whence he had flown from New
York in a monoplane. Without Civ
ing the slightest Interpretation Of the
social character of the development
Of aviation; without taking advan-
tage Of the opportunity to show the
tremendous economic and commercial
value Of the rapid development Of
aviation, the president of the United
States devoted his whole time to a
sentimental talk about the great
personal achievement Of young Lind
bergh.
Talks About War
The real motive for the official
welcome was to encourage recruiting
for the various branches Of the mill
tary service that the United States
government is rapidly building up in
order that the military forces may
keep pace with the rapidly growing
economic powers Of Wall Street, and
d constantly reinvests its surplus
wealth pillaged from the workers in
other parts of the world. Although
Coolidge did not mention any pros
poets Of future wars, thereby carry
ing out the fraudulent policy Of talk
ing pacifism while preparing for new
wars, he did mention the last war.
He said, in referring to Lindbergh:
"Too young TO have enlisted in
the world war, her son became a
student at. one Of the state uni
versities."
Ignores War Stand of Father.
Although mentioning his father, c.
A. Lindbergh, a congressman from
Minnesota who, during the last war
opposed it and faced the fanatic de-
nunciation of all the dollar patriots,
Coolidge did not refer to the fathers
stand at that time.
Coolidge was so dishonest he did
not add that the father would not
have permitted his son to enlist had
he desired to do so because be I'M
derstood the fact that war was not
for the benefit of the workers and
farmers Of the country but for the
profiteers and Wall Street magnates.
The demonstration in Washington
was huge affair with all the govern
ment employees and other modified
to aid the military machine in its
propaganda. Whether young Lind
bergh approved the thing or not is
not known as he has made no state
ment Il is noteworthy, however,
that he did not wear an army uni
form, but civilian clothes.

Flexible Shaft Co,

BY CARL HAESSLER,
Federated Press.

CHICAGO, June 12.-After dealing
with the union for the past II years
the Chicago Flexible Shaft Co., maker
Of sheep shearing equipment, sud-
denly threw its traditional labor poll
icy overheard and became a bitter foe
Of everything smacking Of harmony
between employer and workers. Il
refused the 1000 raise granted by

First Troops in
France Just Ten
Years Ago Today

How many recall as New York
halls Lindbergh's feat today, what
was happening in the world Just ten
years ago? It was ten years to
day tJune IS, 1910 that the first
American expeditionary forces landed
in France. Pershing led the first
troops down the gang-plank to that
French soil that many of them were
to drench with their life's blood in
order that the millions Of dollars in
vested by Wall Street on the side Of
England, France and Czarist Russia
might be made safe.
The fresh, jubilant, buoyant lines
Of the youth and young manhood Of
America, were on a lark. Many Of
them, fresh from factory, field, mill
and mine, were happy that life had
suddenly changed for them. The old
monotonous, sordid, unromantic
drudgery Of the past was left behind.
Many of them actually believed that
they We're engaged in holy cause
and that Wilson's words about "mak-
ing the world safe for democracy"
and freedom for all forever" and
"this is the war to end all wars"
really described realities. They did not
then know, what every one knows
now, that it was not the last war.
They did not know that they were
in France as cannOn-fodder to make
the world safe for Morgan's invest
ments; to make secure for the great
bankers and industrialists their right
to continue to exploit the workers Of
the United States and extend their
power to the remotest parts Of the
earth.
New Wars Being Prepared.
Today, ten years after, the war
nongers are again beating the tom
tom; again ale bands play and the
steady tramp Of uniformed ranks are
heard in tho streets. Not, as in 1917,
to march directly to war, but only to
make easier the tasks Of the patriots
for profit who perceive upon the hori-
zon in the East and in the West the
clouds Of another war arising, gather
ing force that will cause the earth to
reel and millions die where thousands
died in the last war.
Equally ominous as are the clouds
that herald the next war is the fact
that Lindbergh, a FLYER was chosen
as a symbol for the war-mongers.
The next war will be one Of the air
far more than Of the land and sea.
Swift-flying planes will hurl thunder
bolts from the sky into the streets
Of cities, towns and villages and lay
waste the countryside. Not only the
soldiers, but whole populations will
be wiped out.
The ten years that have passed
since United States troops first step
ped on French soil to engage in the
world war have seen tremendous de-
velopment in the art of destruction
Of human life, and everyone who per-
ceiyes its meaning must fight against
the imperialism that is responsible for
these new and more frightful prepa-
rations.

All Labor Movement in Support.

All Labor Movement in support.
The call that the Furriers' Strike
Fund and Relief Committee has is
sued to the progressive labor move
ment, that it should stand firm be-
hind the fur strikers, received a very
enthusiastic reply.
The strike Of the brave furriers,
the numerous attacks being inflicted
upon them daily, the beating and cut
ting up Of strikers on the picket lines
by members of the industrial squad
and the acknowledgements clique
have aroused the entire working class
movement. Every worker and work
er's organization sees more and more
that the furriers' strike is not q
strike of only one organization
against the bosses. 1t is a fight of
the entire working class movement,
against the united front of the be-
trayers Of Labor, the bosses, the
gangs and the police. The progress
sive workers have realized that the
fight of the furriers is one against
corruption and gangsterism within
all the unions.
PrOgressiyes Answer.
The attacks upon the strikers and
the criminal cutting up of Aaron
Gross, one of the leaders of the Fur
riers' Union helps to prove this fact.
The progressive labor movement,
therefore, answered very warmly on
the call issued by the Furriers' Strike
Fund and Relief Committee. During
the eight days of the strike many
workers organizations as well as in
6ividuals have sent in sums Of money
and organized committees to go out
and collect ammunition for the strik-
ing furriers.
Amalgamated Workers for Furriers!
The Trade Union Educational Lea
que Of the AmRlgamated Workers

the striking furriers. A special

Says Infusion OF Parents
Blood viii Preuent Measles

WASHINGTON, March %. In
fusion of "A few drops of parental

effective preventative against meas
les, believes Dr. Rudolph Degkwitz
director of the clinic for childrens
diseases at the University of Creifs-
wald, Germany.
Prof. Degkwitz has been working
on measles serum at the hygienic
laboratory of the United States Pub
lie Health Service, recognizing that
while such dread epidemic diseases
at typhoid, malaria, cholera and
dysentery no bnger are serious
menace, the less feared germs of
measles, whooping cough and in
fluenza continue to BATTLE science.
Spread of those three diseases, he
holds is facilitated by the growing
tendency of populations to concen-
trate in cities.

tiles on measles, asserts:
at is Il well known fact that the
blood OF former victim is proof
against subsequent infection, and,
As it is commonly assumed that
every adult person once was afflict-
ID with measles, its blood carries
the nata germ which ensures
immunity against "A second attack.
Its tranfusion into the child has
proven, in Europe, an effective pro-
lection against an initial case of
measles"
Until this simple eXpedient be-
comes thoroughly appreciated and
adopted, however, he thinks it will
be necessary to provide serum for
commercial distribution, so his work
at the hygienic laboratory has beeu
disected toward the preparation OF
a culture from the blood of inoculat-
ed animals. He expects the serum
thus produced to check measles even
ii the patient has already reached
the febril stage.
