SAN DIEGO, Calf, April 9.-Shorn
Of the wings that carried him over
four continents and three seas, Comdr.
francesca de Pinedo paused here to-
day before taking TO long and more
prosaic road that leads to Rome.
The famous Italian aviator arrived
here yesterday with his party from
Roosevelt Lake, Ariz., in naval air
planes lent by the American Govern
ment to supplant the globe-circling
monoplane, Santa Maria, which Thurs
day came to an inglorious end on
Roosevelt Lake because Of a small boy
and lighted match.
The small boy has been absolved of
having Interior motives by an official
report made public by Alberto
Gradenigo, italian vice consul at Los
Angeles, who investigated the burn
ing of the plane for the Italian gov
eminent and declared it to be acct
dental.
No Evidence of Plot.
1.-THE destruction of the Santa Maria
was unfortunate, but was not due to
any plot against either De Pinedo or
the italian government" Gradenigo
said in a statement. II am telegraph
ing to MuSsolini the result of my Off
cial investigation. Comdr. de Pinedo
has asked me to express to the Ameri-
can Government his sincere apprecia-
ton of the many courtesies extended. ."
Many officers previously had offered
to aid him in assembling a plane here
If he would have it shipped to San
Diego from New York, so he might
continue his flight as originally plan
ned. 1t previously had been de-
termined that another plane would be
shipped from Italy to New York for
his use.
The aviator declined the offer with
thanks, saying he would assemble the
new plane at New York, fly from there
back to New Orleans and then go to
st. Louis, Chicago, Quebec, New
foundland, the Azores and back to
Rome.

20. The plane is almost identical with
the one destroyed by fire in Arizona.
Although the theory expressed in the
Fascist press that the burning of
Comdr. de Pinedo's plane was the re-
suit of an anti-Fascist plot, was ex-
ploded by the commanders statement
to the Associated Press, which was
printed in several newspapers here,
the press merely allows an absolute
silence to succeed its wrathy outburst.
1t was announced that the Royal

Cleveland Young Workers Protest
Against Imperialist Wars.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 90
When the militarists of this country,
in league with the capitalists and the
capitalist government, are working
overtime to fill their quotas for the
Citizens Military Training Camps, the
Young Workers Communist League
calls upon all young workers to stand
up and fight for their own class, and
to refuse to accept the dictates of
Wall Street to prepare for war.
The Citizens Military Training
Camps are training ground for muir
derers and strike-breakers, and the
local American Legion is loud in its
censure of the Young Workers Com
munist League for telling the truth
about the camps. A recent campaign
meeting held by the Legion to cam
paign for the C.M.T.C. was flooded
with League leaflets, and the local
papers are still resounding with the
anger of the American Legion au-
thorities.
On Thursday, April %, there will
be mass demonstration on the Public
Square, at which prominent speakers
will take up the imperialist situation
of today, and show the correct line
that the young workers must follow.
The meeting will begin at 700 P.
NJ, and all workers are urged to
come and take part in the demonstra-
ton against war.

A white woman tells us that she

the reason why she wants to do so,
she tells us the following:
She and another white woman, a
friend of hers, went out for bit Of
exercise in a small rowboat at New
York. She had rowed many times out
into the Sound as far or farther than
she went this time, and experienced
no difficulty. But this time, when she
started to row back to port, there was
such a strong outward movement OF
the tide that, rowing with all her
waning strength, she could make no

As sunset was coming on, she be-

not row. 81 began to wave and call
for help to some Of the motor boats
and fine yachts that passed near us"
she said, "but they gave no help and
seemed to ignore us contemptuously.
We were getting desperate. Finally, l

oars and waved it as high as / could,
shouting for help. A power-d1iven
loaded barge that was further from
us than any of the yachts of the
wealthy, finally seemed to sense our
predicament and stopped.

Two men got off the barge into

were two colored men.
II threw them the chain from our
boat and they began to row back to-
ward the barge. But with all their
might they were unable to make any
Roadway against the water.

in theirs, one of the men suggested
that they climb into our boat, so that

When Edith Cavell faced the fire,
And bullets pierced her nurses robe,
Those shots rang out around the globe,
And walked whole continents to ire.
Yet she was guilty; as a spy,
All manmade laws said she should die.
The Englishman who did his bit,
The French who fought for human right,
The German crippled in the fight,
Good God What do they think of it?
Is this the Justice of our time
With a crime added on to crime?
Where'er they've heard of Rights of Man,
The gaucho roaming DER the plain,
The Russian moujik, peon of Spain,
The fisherman in far Japan,
They pray their Gods, their obols give
That these two innocent men may live.
When the purse proud and money mad
Must seek protection for their spoil
By victimizing those that toll
And dare to speak, as these men had,
'Tis time to change; it's time, by God!
To main the hand that Yields the rod.
Oh, all who love fair freedoms name,
Let's raise our voices thru the land,
To show we do not share the shame
Of Massachusetts bloody hand.
