phere supercharged with war,
while the iron heel of international
militarism clanked thru the clock
hall of the Quai D'Orsay. The
solemn play of signing was ushered
in by the arrest of 43 Communists.
The building in which it was en-
acted was surrounded with police.
Sergeants de Vile infested every
embrasure and entrance for blocks
around and at their head was Chi
appe, the Paris police chief, no.
torious for his brutal suppression
of workers following the demonstra-
tions for Sacco and Vanzetti.
No representative of the Soviet
government was at this peace"
conference. The representatives of
the governments there assembled
were consciously performing the
first maneuver in the circuitous pre-
parations for war against the Sow
let Union.
peace is proclaimed Premier
BRAND, the French foreign minis
ter, told the IA delegates gathered
in the Salon Des Ambassadors at
the Quai D'Orsay, "but it still re-
mains necessary to organize it..
That is work for tomorrow"
When he had finished, BRAND
turned to Stresemann, the German
foreign minister, and bowed. The
German official, in an impressive
silence, proceeded to the central
table ALMOST falteringly, took up
the huge gold pen and signed his
name to both copies of the treaty.
One copy, in French, will be pre-
served in the archives here and the
other, in English, at Washington.
After the delegates adjourned to
the gardens for tea, the crowd
poured into the room, trying to
touch the treaty. Guards pushed
them back and surrounded the
treaty while photographers took
close-ups of it.
The arrest of the Communists
followed their denunciation of the
Kellogg "peace" pact as an effort to
cloak the military preparations of
the signatories against the Soviet
Union under cover of the so-called
multilateral peace treaty.

USSR to Turn Czarist
Prison Hell-Hole Into
Revolutionary Museum

LENINGRAD, U. S. S. R., Aug.
27.-The Old Shlusselburg Fortress
on the banks of the Neva, where
many noted revolutionists were i'm
prisoned by the czarist government,
will be opened as a Revolutionary
Museum by the Soviet Government
on August 20.
The cells will be left as they are,
many of them bearing the inscrip-
tons of former revolutionary pris-
oners. Visitors will be able to see
the damp and dark cells under the
level of the Neva, with their single
iron cots, wet and sparse floors.
At the execution place tablets
with the names of the prisoners
executed will be placed.

declaring that if the men would &C

up.
The strike committee solidly re-
fused to deal with the commissioner
on any other than a flat rate, no
bonus basis.
The plant has been badly crippled
by the walkout of the men and the
strikebreakers are working only
three days a week, although the
company is known to have big or

for airplane motors.
See Massillon Strike.
The spirit among the pickets is
excellent and the line is at the mill
daily.
Fear of the Massillon Steel Off
Gals that the strike will spread to
their plant from Canton is leading
them to take savage repressive
measures and seven men were dis
charged yesterday for having strike
leaflets in their possession or for
distributing them. An army of
stools and detectives has permeated
the plant and every move of the
workers is the subject of report
to the corporation officials from
one or another of these agents.
Espionage and the trial of the
three Canton strike leaders arrested
at Massillon, which the corporation
designed as an object lesson to the

>eu Lbe1as Are Worried Over Reports OF American Control Ou Liberia
WANT OWN LABOR
COUNCIL: JAILED
BY jUCOsLAvS
so Dalmatian Workers
Arrested

ZAGREB, Yugoslavia, (By Mail).
An attempt of the members of
labor unions in Split, Dalmatia to
wrest the labor council in that
city from the hands of a group of
corrupt officials has resulted in the
arrest of more than fifty workers
at the date of this writing with
prospects for more arrests in the
near future.
Although the council is known as
a workers council, contrary to VIII; :
one may expect from the name, it
has nothing to do with the interests
of the workers. For many years
this council was ruled by a board
put together by the government
party, which board used money OBJ
tanned from workers for personal
enterprises and even for reactionary
police actions. For a long time
working class organizations de-
manded that a new board be APP
pointed but to no effect. Not only
the unions, brutally prosecuted by
the police, but also the nationalist
organizations and other organiza-
ton condemned in the sharpest
terms the directors of the labor
council.
Due to the growing force of these
protests the government finally had
to order reorganization of the
council. Hoover, working class
and national organizations were not
included in the list and only a list
of the old corrupt elements was
drawn up.
AS the reorganization meeting
was being held large number of
angry workers crowded the meet
ing room, exposed the members of
the old board and broke up the
meeting. Immediately police and
gendarmes entered the picture and
arrested over fifty workers. The
arrests are still going on. Among
the arrested there are many func-
tionaries and leaders of unions and
other working class organizations.
They were brutally beaten in the
police prisons and then handed over
to the courts.
Naturally, at new meeting the
new board of directors was elected
/ in accordance with the wish of the
government. The board consists of
thirteen members, of which only
two are workers and the rest Of
ficials among them bank direc-
tor and a lawyer.

| Syndicalism law as fragrant and

ton.
To Call Conference.
Meetings are to be organized
throughout the state of Kansas so
that the workers of that state will
be able to express their opposition
to the frame-up and to the &C. 81
law. The international Labor De-
tense will also call statewide con-
ference of all labor organizations in
Kansas as soon as possible to mobi-
lie all available forces to fight for
the release of the men and the end
of the Criminal Syndic3Iism law.
Special efforts are to be made to
build and strengthen the I. L. D. so
as to better enable it to carry on
the work in this and other cases.
Needs Funds.
The legal aspects of the case are
being organized rapidly by the ma
tional office of the l. L. D. Nation
ally-known attorneys will be secured
to represent the defense in the case
as part of the campaign to use every
means to smash the attempts of the
Kansas authorities to make the
Workers Party illegal in that state.
1t is understood that efforts are
now being made to retain the serv-
ices of such well-known attorneys as
Jerome Walsh, of Missouri, the son
of Frank P. Walsh and himself a
member of the Missouri State Leris-
lature, and Congressman Coombs,
who represents the state of Mis-
souri, in the national house of repre-
sentatives. Attorney Meeks OF Kan
sas City has already been engaged.
In order to help meet the ire
mendous costs that fighting the case
will involve, the l. L. D. today also
appealed to workers and progress
sive-minded people throughout the
country to send funds immediately
to aid in defraying the expenses.

FEAR U.S.. Will.
DOMINATE VAST
RUBBER SOURCE
Loan Is Negotiated by
Firestone Interests

PARIS, Aug. Statements by
French West African officials today
disclosed their attitude towards the
control given the United States gov
eminent in the internal affairs of
Liberia by an alleged loan for
100000.
The statement of opinion on the
part of the French officials was
precipitated by reports that the
state department at Washington has
been accused before the League of
Nations of attempting to gain con-
troll of the Liberian government
through virtual subsidy.
While pretending to ridicule the
Influence which the American gov
eminent is able through it's finan-
cial position to exert upon Liberian
policies, the French officials betray
their nervousness over the control
thus obtained by the American in
terests.
While the French have huge rub
/. Der reserves in their equatorial At
rican possessions they are also in
terested in the potentialities of rub
Der cultivation in Liberia. They,
Moreover, fear the independence of
foreign markets which the opening
of this new rubber source will mean
to the American rubber manufac-
turers.
The loan is understood to have
been negotiated secretly by the
American Firestone rubber interests
under liberal patronage of the lead
ing republican party.
