slowly washed away the mucous MEM

cascarize the system, you get rid OF
all the poisons by normal muscular
action of the bo1Cels.
Don't get in the habit Of taking
medicine for constipation-or even for
autointoxication. If you have the
habit, stop it, A candy cascaret is a
delightful form in which to take cas-
cara; children love them and the taste
tempts most grown-ups to take
more" And what comfort to know

Vacuum Oil May Have
U.S.S.R. Concession
Continued from Page Ome)

Continued from Page One)
New Jersey and the Royal Dutch
Shell Oil Company have been nego-
tiating together, following the fail
ure of the Royal Dutch to secure a
Russian concession, it appears that
the Vacuum Oil Company has been
active in Russia and stands an ex-
cellent chance of obtaining the ex-
ploitation rights to fields in the vi
cinity of Baku, the second richest in
the world.
Concessions of Great Importance.
The negotiations are believed to in
volve the lease of extensive oil fields,
drilling privileges, refinery construc-
tions and the sale of petroleum pro-
ducts in Russia and outside.
Several American corporations are
considering concessions of greater i'm
portance than the biggest concessions
granted heretofore" NJ. Ksandroff
said today. "There has been great in
terest by American capital in the
Soviet Union since the British break.
German firms are also negotiating.

ed to invest $5,000,000 in an electrical

1900 At Tenth St.

Twelve hundred workers assem-
bled at Tenth st. and Second Ave.
and listened to speeches by J. Louis
Engdahl, editor of The DAILY
WORKER, Roger Franeison, Rose
Baron, William w. Weinstone and
Ludwig Lore. A Spesems was chair
man.
Engdahl pointed out that if the 49,
100000 workers of this country were
united they would constitute an ir-
resistible power. The weakness of
American labor is shown in part by
the fact that the leaders of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor are not in
the struggle to save Sacco and Van
zetti.
Screen and Wol," continued Eng
dahl, "are too busy fighting against
militant workers to help in the move
ment to save the lives of our two
comrades. The fight we now are car
rying on is not only to save Sacco
and Vanzetti but also for Tom
Mooney and Warren K. Billings and
all imprisoned working class lead
ers. 1t is part Of the whole work
ing class struggle against the CAPT
talist oppressors.
Engdahl also told of demonstra-
tons for Sacco and Vanzetti in the
Soviet Union, how in all European
countries monster meetings have
been held. In every country except
the Soviet Union they have been for
Sacco and Vanzetti and against the
respective governments. In the
Soviet Union they have been for Sac
co and Vanzetti and for the workers
and peasants government of Russia.

Housing Scheme to
Net Large Returns
For Big Investors

Tammany's Board Of Estimate,
without dissenting vote, okayed its
own plan for wholesale "condemna-
ton" of east side Stun property, by
means of which the administration
favorites will be able to dispose Of
'y-valued property and receive high
.aices from the city's treasury. All
this will be done by means of con-
domination proceedings soon to be
legalized by the Walker bill. For
purposes of camouflage this is known
as housing plan"
After all these years Tammany
has suddenly become aware of the
congested and unsanitary state of
affairs on Allen Street and vicinity.
This sudden awareness is manifest in
Walkers preamble presented to the
Board of Estimate. 1t reads, "Where-
as it is now generally recog-
nized that congested and unsanitary
housing conditions which exist in
certain parts of the city of New
York are serious menace to the
health, welfare and comfort of the
people of the whole city;
Whereas such conditions have
arisen for the most part on those
older portions of the city which are
marked by dark, narrow streets and
by the absence of park, playground
and other open spaces and
so on.
Safe Bet.
Under the new law which makes
possible excess condemnation" pro-
ceedings, Paul Block, August Heck

Ticket Profiteers Save
Time by Pleading Guilt
In Theatre Tax Scandal

Twenty-three theatre ticket brok-
ers who failed to pay a fifty per
cent advance on the box office plead
ed guilty today in the federal court
to income tax frauds and were held
in $1,000 bail each.
The profiteers protested that this
provision of the law taxing excess
profits is unconstitutional, but plead
ed guilty to save time and expense,
they said.
By agreement with United States
District Attorney futile, the agen-
cies will henceforth sell tickets. at
only a fifty per cent advance on the
box office price. When they are
compelled to pay more they are to
report the circumstance to the dis
trict attorney.
Except for the decision of the high
courts on the constitutionality of the
excess profits tax, today's action
brings to an end the investigation of
