BOY SCOUTS AND
FLEET ASSEMBLE
FOR NAVY week"
San Francisco Police
Guard Paraders

SAN FRANCISCO, April 16.--In
connection with the National Boy
Scout Convention being held here,
huge parade of 10000 Boy Scouts,
thanked by army officers, police and
city officials, proceeded down Market
Street and held demonstration in
the Civic Square, where eight months
ago the police broke up a Sacco-Van-
zetti demonstration and arrested 125
workers. In the present demonstra-
ton, the police played the role of
guardians for these boys whom en-
ployers and preachers are trying to
bring up to be priests and strike
breakers.
Patriotic and militarist slogans
such as Zone Country-One Enemy"
marked the parade.
And at the same time the entire
United States battlefield is assembled
in San Francisco Bay, and thousands
of sailors are pouring into the city
for a "Navy Week" celebration,
which is part of the preparations for
war in the Pacific. The fleet gather
ed in San Francisco Bay is preparing
to leave for the Hawaiian Islands and
"points west" for naval maneuvers.

DRAMA
"The Outsider" With Lionel
At1uH, Back on Br0adWay

THE story of bone-setting VS.. skilled
surgery forms the central theme
of THE Outsider" by Dorothy Bran
don, which has been revived at the
Ambassadsr Theatre The play was
last seen here four seasons back with
the same star.
With a superior cast headed by
Lionel Atwill and Isobel Eslom, the
play develops into one of the most
important productions of the current
season. The only pity is that it was
not opened little earlier in the sea-
son, so it could get the full attention
that it rightly deserves. Those who
did not see the play when first pre-
scented here four years ago, should
now avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity.
The plot concerns Lalage Sturdee.
superbly played by Miss Eslom.
who condemned to be a cripple to the
end of her days by the medical pro-
fession, who claim she cannot be
cured, is finally brot back to health
by q healer not registered as regu-
lar doctor. The part OF. the healer
is played in mastery fashion by Mr..
Atwill.
Two-thirds of the play undertakes
to prove the superiority of mechanical
therapy over surgery. The remaining
third is devoted to the love affair be-
tween the cripple and the dynamic
healer who manages to cure the girl
in time for the final curtain.
The unquestioned artistry of Mr..
Atwill is admirably adapted to the
staggering healer. He develops the
proper degree of whims cality and
naivete to make a central character
human and lovable.
The members of the supporting
cast are all highly capable: Albert
Drumming gives a remarkable per-
Torrance as the stern British father.
while the Messrs. Wallace Erskine.
Beresford Lovett, Gilbert Douglas
and Charles Angelo, are pleasantly
pompus as Fellows of the Royal Col

setter without an NJ. D. degree is
like a stab in the back. Mention must
! also be made of Miss Feranda Eliscu
who as Madame Klost, is restrained

over five million unemployed in the
most wealthy and industrially de-
veloped country in the world.
While depression in industry and
introduction Of efficiency puts out
more and more workers on the street,
the capitalist officials with their ser

nothing to make somehow easier the
miserable conditions of unemployed.
The unemployed councils which
have been organized as result of
this great unemployment are taking
the lead towards elementary help for
these workers.
The Philadelphia Council of I'm

cations for April 27, 8 p. m. at Grand

MINER DEMANDS
Says Machine Chiefs
Come Drunk to Picket
a. a Worker CorrespondeMtl

DUNCANWOOD, Ohio, (By Maid.
I am a United Mine Worker who
has been out on strike in this field
for over one year, the same as all the
other brothers. And I am sending
you little letter to help open the
eyes of the poor miner and his fam
lily, who are, after, all, the real
sufferers in this struggle. And l ask
you to print it in some part of your
paper where everyone will be bound
to see it.
Picket Daily.
I have been on the picket line at
the different mining camps nearly
every day since the operators COM
menced to open the ROCKVILLE mine
near Salena, Ohio.
| l have seen our board members
doing things that make me sick at
heart. But did not want to voice my
feelings, thinking things might get
better. But now l think the striking
miners should all rise up and resent
the actions of these so-called United
Mine Workers of America officials,
who to my mind are nothing but a
lot of strikebreakers, running loose
and wild, helping to sap the funds
from the treasury.
Lewis Henchmen.
! Men, you who have been on the
picket line that board members who
\ -, 81,
always have few picked men who
hang around them. They are the ones
who can get all and anything they
want, while other men and their fam
lilies are on the verge of starvation.
Is that right? l don't think so.
When Dave Young, the board mem
Der goes on his parties" and he
has many of them, and says that he
is paying for them out of his own
pockets, do the men believe him? ]
don't.
Why is it that when these board
members are needed they can't be
found? Why are they in hiding when
they ought to be out on the lines
along with the strikers? Is it right
for these men to go out on the lines
drunk when they ought to be sober :?
Brothers, I ask all of you to get
awake and look around you and see
how the men who are paying to work
for US are making fools of us. If our
men will only keep their eyes on these
selfstyled gods, they will learn why
we have not got farther with this
strike. Men, it is time for us to get
next to ourselves and get rid of the
henchmen of the Lewis machine.

Worker Correspondent Tells Slavery at National Biscuit Company Plan
Lewis Lies
Fail to Dust
John Brobhy

(By a Worker Correspondent
PITTSBURGH, Pa, (By Mail)
An effort to GUST John BrOphy
as secretary at the business meet
ing and banquet of the Union La
Der College failed despite the false
charges brought against him by
some students who had been
bunloed by local labor takers.
The Lewis-Fagan machine con-
trol the Central Labor Union thru
regularly packing the elections of
that body. Being too cOwardly to
prefer charges against BrOphy in
the Miners Union, they used the
machine-contrOlled Central Labor
Union to further their ends. About
month ago they withdrew their
endorsement of the Union Labor
College because Brophy was its
secretary. This action was taken
without giving BrOphy an OppOr-
tunity To reply to the lies and SLAM
der of the reactiOnaries.
Most Of the students were of the
opinion that the action of the c.
L. L. in Withdrawing their en-
dOrsement because of the fight in
the Miners Union was too raw
and decided to take no action
against Brophy and to continue
the college again next fall without
the endorsement of the Central La
Dor Union if necessary. M.
