Of the congress is broad enough, its
roots are deep enough, and its strik-
ing power impressive enough for us
to go about our serious business con-
fident of what we are doing"
Hafiz Rammadan Bey, member of
the Egyptian Parliament and presi-
dent of the Egyptian Nationalist
party, who followed Ledebour, said
that he believed more in evolution
than in revolution, but that some
joint action is nevertheless neces-
sary. He pointed out that altho
Egypt is nominally an independent
country the British army of occupa-
ton is still there. He put forward
the idea of the Decentralization
of the Suez canal, a measure, which,
he said, would cripple the British en-
pire in its Indian policy.

sion in the colonies is also true of

pire at will, and we must help all

demonstrations are. We must take

Pollitt, whose speech was frequent

sented a concrete program of work

CHINESE union
LEADER IN u. S.
To SEE DANGERS
Regards Company I'm
ion as Horrible Example

CHICAGO (FP.--Ma Cheu Jung,
founder and president of Chinese
trade union of 100000 workers with
locals in Canton, Shanghai, Pekin
and many other cities, is travelling
through the United States to dis
cover the condition of labor under
mass production. He wishes to dis
cover how labor organizations are
fighting the mass exploitation
caused by speeding-up, company
unions, company welfare work and
other methods tn at have been
brought to greatest perfection in
America. Ma foresees a spread of
mass production from Shanghai, its
present nucleus, to the rest of China.
His union is part of the Chinese Ma
tionaist or Kuomintang movement,
bent on ending the usurpation Of -
eign imperialism.
Sitting in the Federation Press Of
flee with Shiulai Eng, president of
the Chicago Kuomintang, who acted
as Interpreter, Ma spoke vigorously
about labor's program in China.
when you have chased out the for
eign exploiters, what them" he was
asked. "Then we must end exploit
tation by Chinese. The Chinese is
just as bad, sometimes worse than
the foreign eXploiter."
Mas union is an organization of
machinists and allied crafts, includ-
ing electrical workers, iron-workers,
stationary engineers, sheet-metal
workers, firemen and oilers, wood
workers and machinery movers, 10
departments in all, united as the
Mechanical Workers union. Condi-
tons are best in Canton and worst
in Pekin of the big cities, he said.
He sketchcd an interesting correla-
tion between high wages, short hours
and union literaey.
Big Headquarters.
His union holds an annual national
convention and more frequent dis
trict meetings. Its headquarters in
Canton is a three story building cost
ing 100000, "as big as the Y. NJ.
c. A." he proudly said. There is
no color or sex discrimination and
number of white electrical workers
in Canton are members, he said.
All the outstanding trade union
leaders in China have been trained
by the Kuomintang and practically
all support its revolutionary pro-
gram, he explained. The unions have
attempted to maintain daily newspa-
pers but failed because of the lack
Of advertising revenue and the inabil-
ity to raise enough money otherwise.
But there are many weekly labor
journals. The language difficulty
owing to the difference in Chinese
dialects is speedily overcome by the
Cantonese, Ma declared. A Canton
csc can become fluent in the Shang-
hal tongue in two months, he said,
and similarly elsewhere.
How about recognition of the Ma
tionalist government by the United
States" he was asked "If the Uni
ted States wants TO recognize us
very WELL" Ma replied. eve shall
welcome it, though we do not seek
it. We can exist without recogni-
ton"

L. S. Marines Shoot.
BLUEFIELDS, Nicaragua, March
10.-United States marines fired upon
liberal soldiers at Ell Baqueron Rail
road Station, eighteen miles west Of
Managua, last Friday, according to
reports received here today. The re-
ports do not state whether there were
any casualties.
General Moncada has been offici-
ally advised that Matagalpa is now
a neutral zone and he has given an
interview condemning the United
States for taking this action.
Occupation Is Completed,
The United States today completed
occupation Of Nicaragua, Admiral
Julian Latimer, commander of the
naval forces there, reported to the
navy department.
Every marine has been put ashore
from the transport Henderson and the
large supply Of ammunition and food
placed in warehouses at Corinto, from
where it will be distributed.
A Regular Stay.
From now on the marines will set
tie down to the regular routine of
policing the republic and remain there
as long as there is any danger of the
Nicaraguans trying to install their
own president.
Primarily the marines expect to
crush the army of DR.. Juan Sacasa,
the constitutional president, both
from military and political stand
point, officials declared. This will be
done, it was stated, regardless of ac-
ton upon the treaty which is being ne
gOtiated with this country to estab-
Esh a protectorate for 100 years.

The new distribution of marines,
it was reported, completely shuts off
General Moncada, Dr.. Sacasa's leader
in the field, from any further military
operations against the forces Of
Adolfo Diaz, president Of Nicaragua
under the protection Of the United
States.
Officials Of the state department
have expressed themselves as aston
ished at the feeling Of resentment the
terms of the treaty proposed with
Diaz have aroused in America, and
are now endeavoring to quiet the
storm by prophesying that "the
United States will not accept the pro-
position of Diaz that protectorate
be established"
