Douglas, Alaska.
 Dear Mr. Eddy:
 I have yours of recent date, Jan. 20 relative to the "perking of politics" in your locality
 In Ketchikan the United Sons of Alaska is the strongest factor pol itically. They are now nearly 1OOC strong and easily controlled the last City election. They will probably put I'D a City ticket at the coming election. Your position relative to MT. Will Paul is not logical, for you suggest MT. Benjamin of Ketchikan as a logical candidate for Senator. notwithstanding the fact that he and MT. Paul are close political friends. To vote for Paul and not vote for Benjamin, or to vote for Benjamin and not for Paul would be quite foolish. I wish to assure you that I have no combination with MT. Paul. However, I cannot we'll understand how you can oppose MT Paul as he is a bosom friend Of MT. White, your superior officer.
 am awfully glad to know where you stand as to MT. Paul's can. didacy.
 Of course you understand that Paul has strong opposition in his own party in Ketchikan and this city polls nearly 4 the vote of the Division. He will not run as we'll this year as he has in the past for the same reasons that you state he will be "shelved" up there, and a stronger effort than ever before will be made by those who heretofore have opposed him. MT. Paul is op- posing Senator Hunt who has many old time friends here and this op- position to Senator Hunt will estrange Paul's friends among the Pioneers. He is also opposing me in every way, and is naming, or at tempting to name, the primary nominees on the Republican ticket without any consultation whatever with the National Rep. Committee

Institutions of Special Interest.
A great many institutions of
special interest, all established and
conducted for the benefit Of the
great masses of the Russian work

Included among these are the Chill

Workers Faculty, the Schools for
Political Literacy, Museums, and a
variety of Experimental Schools.

WORKING WOMEN
OF NEW YORK CITY
PLAN SYMPOSIUM
Socialists" Refuse to
Participate

With the democratic presidential
candidate, Tammany Al Smith,
making a direct bid for the votes of
working women on the strength of
promises to represent their interests,
the coming Political Symposium,
scheduled for Thursday, October II,
at Cooper Union under the auspices
of the New York Working Women's
Federation, promises to be a lively
political contest, in which the Work
ers' Party candidate is expected to
challenge the record not only Of Al
Smith but of the republican and So
cialist candidates as well. Working
women representing the tr e
unions, workers fraternal organi-
cations and clubs and workingclass
organizations generally as well as
women workers from unorganized
industries will be urged to partici-
pate in the discussion and to re-
port back to their organizations and
shops the platform, principles and
promises of the respective party
representatives.
The political symposium speakers
are: Ray Ragozzin, candidate for
Assembly in the Twenty-third AS
sembly District, Brooklyn, running
on the Workers (Communist) Party
ticket; Mrs. Anna Moskowitz Kross,
assistant corporation council for the
democratic party, and Mrs. Alice
Mckay Kelly for the republican
party. The socialist party has re-
fused to participate, thus setting it
self on record as declining to state
it's position before the working
women of New York.
Not prediction promises, but
whose interests the respective par
ties serve will be brought to the
fore in the symposium according to
statement issued by the New York
Working Women's Federation. Since
more hath half of the votes will be
cast by working women, the fedora

Cards Hold Advantage in
Series, Sheydel IN Obene,

A Cardinal victory in short order
in the Worlds Series starting to-
morrow at the Yankees Stadium
seems certain, with a good portion
of the Yankees on the hospital list.
Herb Pennock, Yanks star port
slider, will not get into the series.
Two years ago Pennock was the
Yankees main reliance against the
Cardinals. Now he is out with
neuritis. 1t seemed certain yester-
day that Earl Combs, Yankees star
lead-off man would be out of at
least the first three games. Altho
an X-ray showed Combs wrist un-
broken, his injury, sustained at De-
troit, is sure to keep him out.
Tony Lazzeri will be playing
second base, but would be kept on
the sidelines due to weak arm, if
the Yanks only had someone to take
his place. Joe Dugan, third-base-
man, has been benched because of
eye-trouble. Cy Moore, 1927 star re-
lief hurler, has been sent home to
Oklahoma, with his wing out of
commission.
Every Cardinal is in fine condi-
ton. Not a man is injured. Sher-
del will probably open against the
Yanks, with Hoyt attempting to
stop the Cardinals sluggers.

for Sunday, Oct. 81, in Irving
Plaza, he announced. At this con-
ference plans to build new cloak and
fur unions will be discussed and the
foundation laid for the launching

Other speakers at the meeting
were H. Koretz, manager of the or
ganization department of the Ma

discussed in greater detail the re-
newed organization drive, and Louis
Hyman, chairman of the N. 0. c.,
who gave general resume of the

URGES WOMEN TO
lvOTE COMMUNIST
PARTYS TICKET
Poyntz Asks Support
for Red Candidates

The United Council of Working
Women has endorsed the Workers
(Communist) Party candidates and
pledged $500 for the campaign. They
are planning an intensive drive
among working women, according
to Juliet Stuart Poyntz, who spoke
here recently.
Lithuanian and Finnish women's
councils have also endorsed Foster
and Gitlow, and many of the groups
affiliated with the New York Work
ing Women's Federation have done
likewise. Rachel Ragozin, of the
latter organization, is candidate of
the Workers (Communist) Party.

Brooklyn.
"The thousands of women work
ing in the factories and shops of
New York for miserable wage of
SO and SIS weekly under unsani-
tary and unhealthful conditions,
cannot vote for the parties whose
platforms ignore them and their O.
100000 sisters thruout the country"
said Juliet Poyntz. "The Commun-
lists demands for working women
include equal pay for equal work,
40-hour, 5-day week, six weeks va
cation with pay before and after
childbirth, prohibition of night
work, overtime and job work, and
abolition of all determinations
against women"

Importance of Drive.
Stressing the Importance Of this
renewed organization drive, Joseph
Boruchovich, vice-chairman of the
National Organization Committee,
who was chairman of the meeting,
pointed out the necessity of follow
ing up the important victories al
ready gained and delivering knock
out blow to the tottering and de-
moralized right-wing crew.
Boruchovich particularly empha-
sized the Importance of picketing the
shop of Wolf, Rubin and Scheinberg,
142 w. 37th ST., which he called a
strategic point in the struggle
against the right wing. The strike
against this shop was called be-
cause of the discharge of B. Kaplan,
formerly Sigman official and now
a leading member of the Tolerance
Group which is affiliated to the Ma
tional Organization Committee. The
right wing clique is furnishing this
shop with scabs, Boruchovich said,
and he called upon all those
present to picket this shop every
day.
Boruchovich also laid great en-
phasis on the campaign to secure a
100 per cent payment of dues and
the assessment tax, as well as the
enrolling of new members.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla, Oct.
2.-More than 500 unemployed
workers, most of them from Geor-
gia and other states north of Flor
ida, yesterday were attacked and
driven out of this city by police,
after they had applied for work at
relief headquarters.
The Red Cross, which through its
constant ballYhooing has raised al
most 100000, supposedly for the
hurricane victims, recently inserted
several advertisements in southern
papers calling for workers to apply
at their headquarters. AS a result,
over 500 workers applied, only to be
told that they were not wanted
When the Red Cross officials, I'M
able to scare off the indignant
workers, called the police, an attack
was made on the workers, and sew
eral were injured. Many others
were driven out Of the city at the
point of guns and clubs.
The Red Cross here has been re-
building the residents of the wealthy
here, but ignoring the Negro and
white workers, who suffered most
keenly as a result of the hurricane.
Hundreds of these homeless work.
ers are contracting disease daily
through the neglect of the relief Of

have been prevented have occurred.

Will Have Exhibits

Livestock breeders from every
section of southern Minnesota have
indicated their intention of taking an
active part in the first livestock show
of the Southwestern Minnesota Live
stock Breeders Association which
will be held in Sleepy Eye, November
10th.
November 10th has been named as
the date, but it is likely that Novem-
Der 9th will be included to make a
two day show.
Liberal prizes will be offered in
the various classes of livestock and
exhibitors from a radius of hundred
miles have indicated their intention of
showing here. The date is just ahead
of the livestock show at st. Paul and
hence exhibitors planning to go there
can bring their animals here and
when the show here is over, ship dir
ect to st. Paul.
Sponsors of the movement tell US
there will be no side shows or coun.
ter-attractions to detract from the
livestock exhibits. 1t is likely that q
