MOSCOW, July 26.-This city
has again been thrilled by the latest
feat of the Soviet ice-breaker Kras-
sin. Answering an S. 0. S. received
yesterday afternoon from the Ham
burg-South American liner Monte
Cervantes, the Krassin plowed thru
the icy waters full steam ahead and
accomplished the rescue of 1900 pas
sengers and crew aboard the Ger
man ship, which had struck an ice
berg and sprung a leak.
The Krassin, which was on it's
way for Stavanger for overhauling
after saving 16 men lost in the
Arctic wastes, arrived at midnight
alongside the big German liner.
Divers from the Krassin descend
ed into the icy waters and lent aid
in making repairs. AS a result of
the quick action of the Soviet ice
breaker crew, the Monte Cervantes
was enabled to steam to Bell Bay.
where she anchored.

ces are responsible.
In manifesto issued yesterday
by the Mexican Communist Party,
virtual, though qualified pledge
of support was given the Gales
government against the forces of
clericalism and other reaction which
are seeking to unite against the
militants and the labor movement
whose support Gales is now forced
to seek. The National Peasants
League, composed of landless and
poor peasants in a manifesto similar
to that of the Communist Party,
definitely pledged it's support to
Gales and called upon the workers
and peasants to unite against the
Catholic reaction. Both manifestoes
were at one in pointing to the dan
ger from the reactionary agrarian
and Catholic leaders and called also
for an international bloc of South,
Central and North American masses
against Imperialism.

JERSEY PLAN FOR
BIG CONVENTION
viii Ratify Communist
Program

In response to a call issued by
the New Jersey Campaign Commit
tee of the Workers (Communist)
Party, New Jersey labor organiza-
t;c,:-5 and workers fraternai clubs
are electing delegates to represent
them at the ratification convention
of the Workers (Communist) Party,
which will be held on Sunday, Au-
gust 5, at 10 a. M. at the Workers
Progressive Center, 90 Mercer St.,
Newark, N. j.
In its convention call, the New
Jersey Campaign Committee lays
specie emphasis on the Importance
Of the coming election to New Jer-
sey workers. The call points out
that New Jersey, the home of big
corporations and special interests,
notorious for it's anti-labor record,
is, ruled by the democratic machine
| rough Mayor Hague and by -
publican machine through L. s
: lnator Edge, the corporation lAS-
yer.
Calls Upon Workers
Calling upon all workers to SUP
port the program of the Workers
(Communist) Party, the Campaign
Committee emphasizes the fact that
the two major capitalist parties are
functioning more and more openly
as agents of Big Business. The role
played by these parties in the every
day lives of workers is evidenced
by the number of injunctions issued
against workers on strike and the
practices of police brutality against
such workers, as in the Passaic tex
tile strike.
The convention call reminds New
Jersey workers of the practice of
killing labor bills in their legisla-
ture, and goes on to stress the fact
that despite constantly rising I'M
1ployment no relief has been given
the unemployed.

RED ESSEX TOUR
CONTINUES WITH
GREAT SUCCESS
Collect Signatures In
Election Drive.

A battered automobile, discarded
by its original owner, may yet be
seen occupying a place of honor in
an historical revolutionary museum,
when the workers and farmers of
the United States supplant the
present capitalist government with
one of their own.
And its name is sure to be the
"Red Essex"
Last week Comrades George
Pearlman and Donald Burke drove
their painting gasoline boat up to the
headquarters of the New York Dis
trict Committee, wiped their per-
spring foreheads, and told the story
Of their adventures collecting sig
natures for the Communist candi-
dates to Rebecca Grecht, campaign
manager for the Empire State.
Covered IA States.
Pearlman and Burke had covered
fourteen counties on both sides of
the Hudson, from Yonkers to Sara
toga Springs and from Saratoga
Springs to Haverstraw, and during
the course of their labor they ran
into scenes of poverty and destitu-
ton that would equal anything wit
messed in the slums of London or
Paris.
In most of these small towns there
is little if any industry, and the
population depends on the summer
hotel trade for existence. If the
summer trade is brisk, they are able
to exist during the winter months
on what they manage to save. But
this year unemployment in the cities
has hit hard at the industry-if in
dustry it may be called-and the
propertyless section of the popula-
ton face the coming winter with a
shudder of dread.
While the plight of the white
workers is bad enough, that of the
Negroes is so terrible that the con-
ditions existing during chattel slav-
cry days in the South were ideal in
comparison.
Negroes Suffer.
Negroes find it almost impossible
to secure lodging or shack to rent,
This miserable territory is infested
with the Ku Klux Khan, who fire
cannons off the tops of hills when
commencing their rites. Those be-
fuddled people are bitterly anti.
radical, and in some villages prac-
tically everybody from the grand
father to the toddling infant is q
member.
Wherever the khan is dominant
life for the Negro is unbearable. In
the city of Athens a Negro family
lived in a one-room shack which was
so small tlct it could not house the
old secondhand installment plan
piano. 1t had to be put outside the
shanty. Negroes, as well as other
workers, can only find part-time
employment. When out of work
they are obliged to borrow money
which they must pay back when
working.
The backwoods or poor farmers
are hardly any better off. Ruined
by the Borden Milk Trust, the far
mers are at their wits end to make
ends meet. The Borden Company
which had previously purchased
milk in Putnam county, started out
to corner the market and ruin the
independent milk companies. They
bribed inspectors to declare the cows
diseased and order the cattle killed
inside of "a hours. A few farmers

lets in the air. He had an elaborate
arrangement to "step down" power
thus generated.
Power Was to Jump
A complicated scheme was pa
tented in 1872 by William H. Ward
of Auburn, N. Y, who proposed to
project electricity in the air
from one tall tower to another.
These towers were supposed to draw
the electricity from the surrounding
atmosphere and then release it in
the direction of the prevailing
winds, which were to carry the
energy to other towers, thus setting
up a system of electrical communi-
cation distantly akin to modern
radio.

First, the expert and beauti-
full playing Of the four men
making up this organization.
Second, because the program
included compositions Of Edouard
Lalo and Mussorgski. There are
many elements in the compositions
of both writer's that would cause
one to hear them repeated.
Lalo's "Serenade" reached that
fine high peak because of its play
ing that the audience demanded
more but the big ovation came after
playing Mussorgski's "An Old
Castle" arrangement by A. Pochon
Of the Flonzaley Quartet, If I am
not wrong.
There was no doubt that the
audience wanted to hear more Of
Mussorgski and the quartet re-
peated IAN Old Castle" Here is
sad beauty and the theme gets both
into the heart and the brain box.
Again Mussorgski turned out to be
the charmer, but this time string
quartet was used as medium.
There is much to be said in favor
of the way the program was ar
ranged. 1t opened with Dittersdorf
Quartet in E Flat Major, which
gave the organization plenty of
opportunity for beautiful ensemble
program. Of course, one could not
help but notice the individual merit
of the work of Jacques Gordon, first
violin.
AS a whole, the Gordon String
Quartet is one Of those rare Or
CARNATIONS thavis carrying into the
hearts Of the people the love of
chamber music. Here is splendidly
trained group of men, intelligent
and earnest.
The concert yesterday, given
under the direction of the Indian
apolis Matinee Musicale, was one Of
most satisfying beauty. A rare
treat.
