worker receiving wage of $25 per

He did not seek to go out and get a
Job in other places but stood at his
post continuing the drive for relief
in order that the union might have
fund for continuing its organiza-
tional activities.
Stein Proposed Pittkowitz.
Charge No. is that Pittkowitz
arranged that telegram be sent to
the union demanding that he come
out and organize the Pennsylvania
silk workers. What are the facts?
This renegade Stein was working at
that time with the left wing and
proposed himself that Pittkowitz
shall become an organizer for the
union in Pennsylvania. At that
time the left wing was correct in
proposing that Pennsylvania would
have to be organized in order that
the next struggle of the Patterson
workers should be won. An exam
nation of the work of Pittkowitz as
organizer would show that this diff
ficult job was undertaken with the
minimum expense whereas previous
to that Brooks as organizer expended
thousands of dollars and accom-
plished absolutely nothing for the
organization of the silk workers of
Paterson.
The workers of Paterson will not
be misled by these framed-up and
fake charges. They will go ahead
in the building up of National Tex
tile Workers Union. They will con-
tinue to fight and destroy all these
renegades and reactionaries. They
will build their power in the shops,
organize the workers of Paterson
and establish powerful union of all
the silk workers, allied with the tex
tile workers of the entire country.

Some interesting reports have

of the triumph of the Soviet Repub-

Canada by Amkino Corporation.
Eisenstein, who became world
famous upon the release of his first
picture "Potemkin." refuses to al
low makeup for his actors, even
for close-ups, and consequently one
of the first difficulties was that of
finding actors for the roles of Lenin,
Kerensky, and other figures who
took part in the great events of
1917.

Glider FLYING
is REVIVED AS
SPORT IN U. S.
Light MotorIeSS Planes Stay
in Air For Hours at
Time.

NEW YORK, Aug. 8.-The recent
flights of the German gliders over
Cape Cop have served to focus at
tention on form of flying which
had for time practically passed out
Of existence in this country.
There is a great revival of glider
flying as sport. for with present
aerodynamical knowledge it is pos
sible to build lighU motorless craft
that will stay in the air for hours.
Despite it's low weight glider will
come down no matter how strong
the wind unless it is directed over
uneven ground where upward cur
rents of air may be used to main
tain altitude.
Must Know Wind Currents
A glider is not able to reach high
attitudes except under unusual con-
ditions.
The pilot must also have studied
his ground carefully, so that in a
given wind direction he viii know
just where to find ascending cur
rents and be able to glide from one
to another so as to keep himself
aloft.
Such flights might be likened to
movement over waves of air. very
much like the waves of the sea, each
wave giving the glider an upward
boost.
The conditions of glider flying are
so different from flying in a plane
propelled by a motor that there is
little similarity between them. 1t is
not likely a glider will be devised
which will permit extended fight
over level territory.
Gliders are very light machines.
The wing loading of an airplane
may be anywhere from twelve to
more than twenty pounds per
square foot Of wing surface, and de-
signers attempt to attain as light a
wing loading as possible.
Scars Like Bird
The average glider probably has
a wing loading Of less than four
pounds, which enables it to soar
in the air on wind currents with
all the grace and silence of the
soaring birds.
The pilot sits in an enclosed
fuselage operating controls similar
to those on the planes which hum
overhead carrying the mail and pas
sengers.
But instead of running along the
ground under the impulse of a
propeller until the plane lifts, the
glider is snapped into the air at
sharp angle by means Of a rubber
rope, and then is directed from spot
to spot where the, pilot knows he
will find lifting current Of air to
give him altitude for another glide
or turn.

NEW YORK, Aug. 6.-The pass
ing of Gene Tunney, the first New
York boy to hold the worlds heavy
weight title since Tom Hyers time
almost one hundred years ago, with
out a sob or a sigh seems tragic.
The reason TUnne. retired is that
he put book-learning a before his
profession. Although he was not a
hypocrite as many tried to make
him out, Tunney did not like to
fight. If Tunney had loved to fight,
he would have been one of the
greatest champions of all time. He
had all the natural assets of a
fighter, but he lacked the heart.
What made old John Lawrence
Sullivan the most popular champion
that ever lived was that he had a
standing challenge to fight any man
in the world.
Jim Corbett never got the &C
claim due a champion because he
whipped the fans idol, John L.
Jack Dempsey. who beat Jess Will
Ac> ~ AO4 O44O O4p4CJ w d. 111SSGQ GIlG
first year he wore the crown because
OF his war record, but later he
punched his way into TIE hearts of
the fight fans.
Tunney could have been as
popular as any heavyweight cham
pion if he had possessed the desire
to devote himself wholly to the ring
and not let outside influences take
him away from his profession. Tun-
ney retired at the peak of his career.
Tommy Loughran, the light
heavyweight champion, will make a
mistake by trying to win the heavy
weight title. No good little man can
whip a good big man. AS for
Loughran and Sharkey, I can't see
how Loughran can give away twenty
pounds and win if Sharkey puts up
the kind of fight he showed aaginst
Jack Delaney, the former light
heavyweight champion.
Johnny Risko is good, tough boy,
but not a champion. Tom Heeney
has been found wanting. Sharkey
is too uncertain. I look for some
youngster to develop in the next
year and fight his way to the top.
