Victory for Negro
and White Workers
Ends 8 Month Fight
(By Federated Press.)

Negro and white nsoyion picture
operators are victors in a nine-month
strike against big Harlem concern
operating several theatres. Men of
both races struck together, stood on
the picket line together and won to-
gether under the leadership of Oper-
ators' Local 306.
Drawing injunctions and police, the
operators got the help Of Musicians
Local SOP, whose members walked out
of the houses affected and crippled
the movie boss so effectively that he
has signed up, granting all wage and
union demands.
The motion picture operators and
Harlem Negro papers are boasting
now of the fine interracial co-opera-
ton shown in the successful strike,
which was waged in the center of
New York's famous Negro district,
inhabited by 100000 colored people.

The letter to Woll follows his an
nouncement that he is calling upon
New York labor unions to conduct a

Lindbergh is friendly and ingenious.
He is naturally-and naively-

LORDS ALLIANCE PRESS CONGRESS

PEKING, June 12.-Chiang Kali
shek is reported to have resumed
negotiations with Chang Tso-lin,
Manchurian war lord, for an alliance
against the Nationalist who are rap
idly sweeping north to Peking.
The only obstacle to Chiang's open
alliance with the northern war lord
is his objection to Chang Tsung-chang
as war lord of Shantung. Chang is
reported to favor Sun Chuan-fang,
who opposed the Nationalist at
Shanghai, as Shantungese war lord.
Chang Tso-lin is reported to favor
Chang Tsung- who is notorious
for his brutality. He may, however,
discard the former Shantung war
lord in order to secure the support
of Chang Kai-shek.
Early Nationalist Victory.
Nationalist leaders it is stated are
expecting to enter Picking by the end
of July regardless of any combina-
ton of war lords. General Yen, Gov
ernor of Shansi, who commands one
of the best-drilled armies in China, is
almost certain to remain neutral.

THE return of Lindbergh has driven
almost every piece of important
news off the pages of the capltailst
press. Because the young aviator
has captured the imagination OF the
masses-the section that likes to go
off on an emotional jazz for nine
davs at a time-everybody, or con-
Germ with something to sell from the
vendor of can of gasolene to the
manufacturer of airplanes and from
the cockroach business man who
makes a living by securing semi
derelicts to peddle flags and buttons
on the streets to the publishers OF
mighty newspapers-all are out to
coin an honest dollar out OF his feat
WE confess to an occasional stroke
W of nausea over the business. Not
that Lindbergh does not deserve
credit for his accomplishment. 1t is
the bawdy conduct of the bourgeois
hucksters that sends US scurrying to
an oben manhole when we read about
chambers of commerce and frank
furter factories paying money to the
papers to advertise their hypocritical
love for him. Lindbergh may get
rich out Of it. He is worth millions
to the American capitalist class and
he is now too firmly in the grip of
the masters of the nation to break
lose if he ever had an inclination to
do so.

Ii old adage as far as the configura-
ton of a mans nasal appendage may
be concerned, but ideals and the de-
sire to sacrifice for them change,
with time and changed conditions
even as the indignation of farmers
changes with the lettering or worsen-
inc Of the crop situation. The young
lad who is now feted by capitalists,
their kings and presidents, does not
carry around the social crouch

THE Americ lean capitalists are

Captain Carl NJ. Ulsaker, United

Tuesday from Minneapolis in the in
terest of the Citizens Military Train
ing Camps, which are conducted an
nually by the War Department.
Captain Ulsaker pointed out the in
teresting fact that President Coelidge's
son, as well as the sons of Secretary
of War Davis and General Pershing,
have attended one of these camps,
and that they are endorsed by such
men as Mr.. Rockne of Notre Dame
fame; Mr.. Roper, Princeton Coach;
Gene Tunney, Babe Ruth, Charlie
Paddock, Johnny Weissmuller and
numerous others high in the athletic
world.
Captain Ulsaker urges that the local
boys investigate the training to be
had at these camps and calls atten-
tion to the fact that all necessary ex-
penses, including transportation, are
betrayed by the government.
Information may be obtained from

tative for the camp or from Head
