In order to avoid a jam of traffic
about the temporary White House
yesterday, which housed both the head
of the Nation and Col. Lindbergh,
police diverted traffic away from Du-
pont Circle and motorists who sought
a glimpse of Lindbergh were forced
to abandon their machines and walk.
Police literally squared the circle"
stationnig Themselves a block from
Dupont Circle in each direction and
waving traffic on around. Motorists
who lived within the restricted area
were allowed to proceed to their homes
after they had produced Identification.
Crowds fingered all day in the vicin-
ity of the temporary White House.
Several times, once before breakfast,
Col. Lindbergh put in an appearance
and waved to the throngs which had
gathered to do him honor.
Just before breakfast he appeared
at the door, looked at the crowd, smil-
ed in his boyish, unaffected manner
and then went back in with a gesture
of the hand as much as to say:

Workers Demonstrate

MOSCOW, June 9.-The assassina-
ton of Woikoff, Soviet Plenipoten-
tiary Representative in Poland has
provoked an outburst of indignation
from the toilers of the U. S. S. R..
In Moscow, meetings of protest
against the infamous crime were held.
The speakers emphasized the fact that
this murder was linked with the anti
Soviet policy of the British imperial
lists and pointed out that the Polish
government was responsible for the
murder. Resolutions adopted unani-
mously stress the aspirations of the
toiling masses of the Soviet Union
towards peace, but at the same time
emphasize the readiness of the toilers
Of the U. S. S. r. to defend to the
last the conquests Of October and
charge the Soviet Government to de-
mand from the Polish government sat-
isfaction and severe punishment of
the assassin, and liquidation of the
White Guardist organizations in Pol
and. The meetings ended with a huge
demonstration wherein several hun
dreds Of thousands participated. Par
ticularly impressive were the demon
strations before the building of the
Peoples Foreign Commissariat, which
lasted till late in the evening. The
demonstrators carried thousands of
banners and placards with inscriptions
of protest, indignation and readiness
to fight.
In the demonstration Chinese stu
dents of Sun Yat-sen University and
students of the international Military
School participated and together with
the Moscow proletariat demonstrated
not only their sympathy, but also their
readiness to protect the Soviet Union.
Huge demonstrations Of protest were
held in Leningrad and Kharkov and
in all cities and big towns Of the
u. S. S. R.
The Bureau Of Aviation decided to
name after Voikoff the first airplane
Of the flotilla, "Our reply to Chamber

Britain Fighting
Egyptian Effort
To Run Country

LONDON, June Lord Lloyd,
British High Commissioner in Egypt,
has been instructed to resume "con-
versations" with the Egyptian Gov
crnment, after the recent exchange of
notes concerning the control of the
Egyptian Army.
The powerful Zaghlul party has
been insfstent that the Army be taken
completely out Of British control. The
British Government, while denying
that anything in the nature Of an ulti-
matun1 has been sent to Egypt, is
jealously guarding the power which
it has usurped under the guise of a
benevolent" protectorate, and is un-
derstood to be firm in its stand that
all efforts to detach the Egyptian
Army from British control must
cease.
Between this demand which is
backed up by the guns of the three
British battlcships recently dispatched
to Egyptian ports and the pressure of
the Zaghlul forces, Sarwat Pasha and
his so-called moderate government.
recently placed in the saddle by Brit
ain, are steering unhappily as be-
tween two horns of dilemma.

Short, president of the Brotherhood
Cooperative Bank of Seattle, was re-
Gently a patient in the Tacoma Gen
eral Hospital, an institution which has
long been on the unfair list Of the
Tacoma Central Labor Council, be-
cause it has always shown hostile
attitude to union labor. It is domin-
ated by the leading local banker.
Short has been President Of the
Washington State Federation of Labor
for years. He recently resigned, as he
felt that he would soon be kicked out
if he did not. He has always been a
bitter enemy Of radicals, and helped
wreck the Seattle Union Record, tried
to have Gompers smash the Seattle
Central Labor Council, helped smash
the Farmer Labor party movement in
this state. He is a firm believer in
class collaboration and other labor
faker ideas.
There is a hospital in Tacoma, and
several in Seattle where Short has
his home, that are friendly to union
labor, but he appeared to feel that a
scab hospital was more appropriate
for himself.

(By Worker Correspondent)

TACOMA. Wash. June 9-Me-
chanics at the local Ford agencies are
on strike against a new piece work
plan known as the 60-40 system, in
stalled by the Ford Motor Co. The
plan was to give the shop 60 per cent
and the worker 40 per cent Of labor
charges on each job. In case work
was not satisfactory it was to be
done over free, the mechanic there
fore receiving no pay. This plan
makes it impossible for mechanics
to earn a decent wage, 30 they struck.
There are many local garages en-
ploying union workers, and these get
most of the repair work, which is
frequently necessary on the flimsy
flivvers. Meanwhile the local agen-
cies have imported few men from
the Ford assembling plant in Seattle,
and are paying them Sl20 a month,
with room and hoard. But there is
little work for them to do, and as
they are incompetent to do this right,
the local agencies are at present al
most idle.

Do You Want to Co
With 800 Tourists
On Visit to USSR?

A study of social conditions and re-
cent cultural developments in Russia
is planned by group of 500 Ameri-
cans who will leave New York in July
TO visit Leningrad, Moscow and
neighboring points under the guidance
Of the U.S.S.R. Committee for Cul-
tural Relations with Soviet Russia.
While there have been several stu
dent delegations and other special
travel groups to Moscow, this is the
beginning Of general tourist travel
The New York agency cooperating
with the Committee for Cultural Re-
lations is the World Tours, Inc,
which opened offices to-day at Al
Union Square, Room SOB. The Tour
list section of the new Swedish
American Line "Gripsohlm" has been
chartered for July Ia, and it will sail
direct to Leningrad taking II days
for the trip.
The American party, which is to
be sub-divided into small groups
when it reaches Russia, will travel
with interpreters and be received by
delegations at the various factories
and institutions, which are on the
intinera. Because Of the housing
shortage in Russia, such tour would
be impossible unless arrangements
were made with some such group as
the Committee for Cultural Relations
which is responsible for rooms and
meals for all visitors at all points.
One of their residences will be for
mer castle which is now dormitory
for one Of the engineering societies.
This first Russian tour will last
six weeks, returning to the U. S. on
Labor Day. Other tours will be ar
ranged by the World Tourists as pub
lie interests warrants.
