British Generals
PatrOnize "SeIeCt"
Group From Legion

LONDON, Oct. $3.50 state COM
manders and past commanders of the
American Legion, headed by former
National Commander Howard P.
Savage, arrived here today for a six
day ceremonial visit.
This is the Official" visit of the
Legion to England, and only super
snobs of high financial standing or
peculiar fame as politicians in their
home country are included in it.
Bearing in mind the incident few
days ago when sundry unofficial"
legionnaires tried to battle their way
in the royal palace and see the King
of Belgium along with the Official
party made up of men who rank
higher in Bradstreet, the British
government has massed the streets
with soldiery.
Even among the chosen official"
legionnaires, some are more official
than others
After leaving the train the legion
naires formed on the platform with
unfurled flags. British dignitaries
inspected them, speaking with those
that wore medals.
The British war office was pre-
sented at the station by Major Gen
eral Charles, Gen. Townsend and
others. The foreign office also was
represented.
Functions for the Legion started
with speech by the Prince of
Wales, who uttered the stereotyped
address of welcome, referring to the
great need the Empire had of Ameri-
can troops in 1918.
The most official" of the "offi-
cial" group will be received by King
George on Monday.

Cham0rro Begs Kellogg
To Let Him Misrule
Nicaragua for the u. S.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.--Gen. En-
ilano Chamorro, former dictator of
Nicaragua and high in favor with TIE
American bankers, is now back in
Washington, begging for removal for
the official ban upon his running for
the presidency of his country.
:; hus far Secretary Kellogg has not
indicated any change in his policy,
declared last year, that Chamorro
can never be recognized by the UniSed
States as president of Nicaragua.
This ban is due to the treaty signed
by the Central American States and
approved by the Safe Department,
pleGging non-recognition of anyone
whose coming to power is based on
military coup. Chamorro seized
power in Nicaragua, two years ago,
by military coup. When the Liber-
ais tried to regain power by revolt
against him, Kellogg sent American
warships ard marines to crush the
revolt. Adolf Diaz, known as the
! brains behino Chamorro, was hen
made president by illegal election" al
/ the hands of Chamorrist congress.
And Chamorro was sent to Europe
/ as minister for the Diaz government
; Diaz will be maintained in power
| by American marines and American
differed constabulary until after an
election is held in the fall of 1928
The constitution forbids Diaz running
for reelection. Hence Chamorro is
appealing to Kellogg to declare
: Chamorro now eligible to take over
the running Of Nicaragua.

BLACKPOOL, England, Oct. 6. -

ment, again engaged in a brawling

birth control by the Labor Party Con-
gress. He FLASHED with Cook, leader
of the miners strike And ragged

"Chuck Jones out" Cook termed him,
"The fool of the Labor Party"
The chairman finally came to jones'
aid and arbitrarily announced that a
plank on birth control was barred
from the Labor Party platform "be-
cause it conflicted with religion"

Release Mooney and
Billings" Demands
Angeles Central Union

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6.-By
unanimous vote the Los Angeles
Central Labor Union demanded
unconditional pardon for Tom
Mooney and Warren Billings, who
are now in California penitenti-
aries and have been for the last
eleven years for the San Fran
cisco preparedness parade bomb,
with whi,:h they had nothing to do.
The central body expressed it's be-
lief in their innocence. Mooney
and Billings are martyrs Of the
A. F. of L. in California, symbols
of the determination of the en-
ployers not to allow trade Unions
to have a voice in the political
and economic life of the state.

MOSCOW, U. S. S. R.. Oct. s. -
Pravda, official organ Of the Com
munist Party Of the Soviet Union in
discussing the program put forward
by the Blaekpool Congress of the Brit
ish Labor Party declares that Ramsay
Macdonald and J. H. Thomas. are
persisting in their preparation for the
pending election campaign by con-
Quoting an energetic fight against any
spirit of revolt in the organization,
thereby consolidating their relations
with the trade union bureaucracy with
whose help they expect not only to
receive working class votes but also
trade union funds.
For Imperialism.
Apart from electioneering purposes.
Labor Party leaders are exerting the
utmost efforts to transform all the or
ganized labor movement into a bull
wark of imperialism. However. it is
doubtful if the lackeys of the bour-
geoisie will be able to fully carry out
the mission with which they are
charged by their masters. The British
labor movement is passing thru a
severe crisis under the direct fire of
q capitalist offensive and over five
millions of British workers contrary
to the will of the reformist leaders
are seriously preparing for coming
battles. The abyss between the broad
working masses and the Labor Party
is growing ever wider while at the
same time a bitter struggle is de-
veloping inside the trade unions. The
more the old leaders expose them
selves as open agents of Imperialism
The more rapidly will the way be clear
ed for the revolutionary masses and
the consolidation of the Communist
Party's influence.

NEEDLE TRADES
CONFERENCE TO
Be HELD SUNDAY
To Discuss Relief at
Irving Plaza Meeting
BY BEN RUBIN.

Next Sunday the Needle Trades
Relief conference of all workers or
CARNATIONS called by the Joint De-
Tense and Relief Committee viii take
place at Irving Plaza Hall East 18th
st. and Irving Place.
The Joint Defense and Relief Com
mittee has been in existence for about
eight months. During this time the
committee has helped the joint boards
of the Cloakmakers' and Furriers'
unions to carry on their fight against
attempts Of the bosses to smash the
unions and install sweat shop systems
and company unionism.
Aids Imprisoned Workers.
The Defense Committee has also
helped defend victims of black-terror
in the cloakmakers' and furriers' mar
ket. 1t has supported families of
arrested victims while they were in
jail.
From the first day of its inception
the Defense Committee became what
it had to be--the organ thru which
the masses send their support to the
fighting, cloakmakers and furriers.
The, needle trade workers understand
that only with the help of large
masses of workers will they succeed
in repelling the attacks of the right
wing clique and the bosses and again
build their union. The recent strikes
of the Cloakmakers' and Furriers'
unions have drained the treasures OF
the unions.
Originally the conference consisted
of New York organizations only. Very
soon it extended its activities to De-
troit, Boston, Philadelphia and even
such distant cities as Los Angeles.
In many of these cities conferences
were called and defense committees
established. All these committees
work in close cooperation with the
New York Joint Defense and Relief
Committee
Workers Still in Jail.
At this time dozens of workers are
still in Jail. The appeal of the nine
fur1,iers who were sentenced to long
terms on a frame-up will be heard
very soon and must be won. The
conference will adopt ways and means
to solve all these problems.
With this Sundays conference the
Defense Committee will open a new
page in the history of the struggle
in the needle trades. The conference
is important and must be successful.
All workers organizations that want
to fight not only against the installa-
ton of the sweat shop system and
company unionism but against right
wing betrayals must send delegates. :

FRANCE shocked
BY SMASH GIVEN
Her over TARIFF
Can't Believe America
Would Raise the Duties"

PARIS, Oct. 6.--Officials Of the
Ministry Of Commerce expressed be
lief today that the tariff negotiations
between France and the United States
would be complicated by the action
Of Washington in raising the duty on
certain French goods.
One high official said he could not
credit the news and believed that q
mistake had been made in dispatches
from Washington.
He Feels Hurt.

United States customs authorities
taking such measure at this time"
the official was quoted as saying.
can increase in the tariffs upon
French goods by the United States
would be bound to embarrass future
negotiations. We have had no Off
cial notification from the United
States of an increase in tariffs. The
news is hard to believe"
After declaring his belief that an
increase in American duty upon
French imports would make final
agreement nearly impossible" the
French official continued:
Frances action on tariffs was not
directly solely at America but APP
piled to all countries. But now the
United States increases the duty on
French products, which shows that
the action was directed solely against
France.
Argument Goes On.
America and France are at present
engaged in diplomatic exchanges over
the tariff situation. Washington con-
tends that France is discriminating
against American goods by increasing
the duties. The American government
suggested the negotiation of new
commercial treaty between the two
countries, and France replied by stat
ing the conditions upon which a
treaty might be concluded.
Hate Reciprocity"
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-The ac-
ton of Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Lowman in increasing the
tariff on certain articles imported
from France has not aggravated the
tariff dispute between that country
and the United States, it was said at
the state department today.
State department officials did take
exception, however, to Lowman's
statement that "the American policy
Is one of reciprocity"

Force Increase from Rockefeller.

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 6.-(FP)-
Strike agitation Of the Industrial
Workers Of the World in the south
ern Colorado coal fields, controlled
principally by the Rockefeller inter-
ests, had forced the Colorado Fuel &
Iron Co. to increase miners wages
by approximately IL per cent. The
increase was effective October 1, II
days before the scheduled l. w. w.
strike. The daily wage scale will now
be $500, compared to $5.52. $500
coal diggers are affected. The IW.W.
asked $775 day.
In spite Of the increase, it is under
stood that l. w. w. leaders are going
ahead with their plans for a strike
on October IS. A strike vote is now
being taken to comply with the state
industrial law. I. w. W. leaders re-
port more than 1900 workers in the
coal fields have joined the organiza-
ton since the campaign began 2
