BRITISH PLANES
READY FOR WAR

LONDON, Aug. 14.-The mock
air battle over London engaged in
by two opposing armies of British
planes, one supposed to represent
an Eastern power" and in which
$50 planes are participating, has
covered the city with smoke from
imaginary poison bombs, that if
real, could wipe out the entire popu-
lation.
If the aim of the British govern
ment in staging the combat were
to arouse fear in the hearts Of the
inhabitants, it has done so by the
artificial stimulation both in the
air and in the newspapers. Mill
tary observers are watching the
msneuvers closely in order to per-
feet the air force

DISCUSS DRAFT
PROGRAM STILL
AT WORLD meet
Losovsky Would Elk
pand Trade Union

(Wireless to the Daily Worker).
MOSCOW, u. S. S. R., Aug. ID
The twenty-sixth session of the
World Congress of the Communist
International opened yeste I'd ay
morning. The discussion continued.
Among the speakers at this SEES
sion were Dengel, of Germany; Sui
tansade, of Persia; Alfonso, of In
donesia; Brand, of Poland; Varga,
of the Soviet Union; Choraz, of
Czecho-Slovakia; and Weinstone, of
the United States.
Dengel declared that the adoption
of the draft program means the
final settlement of the theoretical
basis of the Communist Interna-
tional and facilitates the propa-
ganda of Marxism among the work
ers. The program should also be
an aid to action and not only con-
tain theoretical principles. The
passage in the program on capital
ism is too short. The role of social
imperialism must receive more de-
tailed treatment as must also the
role of the left wing social democ-
racy.
The speaker declared that the
German delegation thinks that the
dictatorship of the proletariat must
nationalize all land and not only
large scale farms. The adoption of
the program means great progress
for the Communist International.
Weinstone, of the United States,
then declared that tendencies to-
ward fascism existed in America.
Varied social elements are ready to
unite on the basis of fascist die
tatorship, he said.
He further declared that the draft
program can be summed up as in
ternationalism. The program must
stress the Communist attitude on
racial questions, particularly in the
United States, where we are fight
ing for equal rights for the Negroes.
The twenty-seventh session of the
congress continued in the afternoon
with Losovsky as chairman. Lo-
sovsky declared that the draft pro-
gram contains very little about the
trade union question. The draft
also fails to mention the final aim
of trade union struggles, l. e., the
overthrow of the bourgeoisie. The
draft fails to mention that the re-
formist labor unions represent a
continuation of the state apparatus
within the working class. Questions
of the relations of the Communist
Party and the trade unions also are
not dealt with.
The speaker declared that the
draft must receive a new section
saying everything that the Commu-
mist international has to say con-
corning reformist and revolutionary
trade unions.

UNION FORMED BY
OFFICE WORKERS
LEAGUE IN N. Y.
Demand39- HourWeek,
Closed Shop

A new stage in the development
of the office workers organization
was marked when the membership
unanimously decided to transform
the Office Workers League into the
Office Workers Union. This step
is but the official confirmation of
the steady evolution of the organ
ization in recent months from a
purely educational association to a
full-fledged labor union, it was an
nounced.
The meeting, which was very well
attended, was marked by lively
discussion of the unions immediate
program and the report of the or
ganization committee.
The program of the organization,
as adopted by the membership, calls
for the recognition of the union, the
closed shop, 39-hour working week,
payment for overtime and all legal
holidays, vacations, proper sanitary
conditions, protection against I'M
warranted discharge or demotion,
the regulation of temporary employ
ment, the establishment of office
committees and office chairman,
protection against discrimination
for union activity, or on account of
race, color or creed, and the pro-
curement of a good standard wage
fo,. oil off;oo ,,,o,lyare
The program further urges a
fight against company unionism
and company welfare schemes in all
its forns-a curse from which Of
flee workers are today suffering.
Unanimous concurrence was given
to the recommendation of the or
ganization committee that the union
apply itself at the outset to organ
izing the most underpaid office
workers.
The organization committee re-
ported that as result of the ques-
tionnaire submitted to the member
ship several such large offices have
been selected for immediate organ
ization.
A call was issued for volunteers
to take part in "colonizing" activi-
ties within offices. On this work
depends the success of the unions
initial organization activities, twas
declared. All unemployed members
of the union are urged to volunteer
for colonization duty. Communica-
tions should be sent to the Office
Workers Union, Labor Temple,
14th St. and Second Ave-, where the
union meets regularly every second
and fourth Monday of the month.

HAVANA, Cuba, Aug. ID (UP).
Warning of new tropical dis
turbance over the Caribbean Sea

tory today. The warning said:
"The disturbance to windward
has moved rapidly towards the west,
over the Central Caribbean Sea, far
from observation stations, and is
probably conferred to the south of
the Dominican Republic. In case it
moves in the same direction tomor-
row, it probably will pass over the
southern part of Jamaica. It's in

were torn down to provide the space for the
playground "The west is especially fortunate,

'WOmen First To Raise

Never before has the problem of ventilation
in the home been given much attention by
home builders, according to j. A. Werner, man

distributors of the West Wind ventilatng fan.

"The modern home maker is abreast of the

equipment, realizing that the health and happi-
of her family depends upon the home

THAT Spokane contractors and builders

Seek Place ON State
Ticket for ". ". Zent

A number of politicians, principally from the
west side have banded together for the apparent
purpose of handpickng entire state Republi-
can ticket, supporting Governor Hartley.
1t is noticeable. however, that the entire
ticket selected comes from King County. The
politicians take the position that Seattle and King
County will control the primaries. In centering
activities around Seattle this group is working
on the theory that the King County primary vote
will approximate 45 per cent of the total cast
in the primaries, based upon the heavy registra-
ton in Seattle last spring in the mayoraty con-
test. The rest of the state has received no con-
sideration whatever, and if it is going to have
representation in the state government, it is time
for the East side people to band together in an
effort to force reception.
Judge w. w. Gent, of Spokane is candidate
for Attorney General Judge Gent is former
superior court judge, fifty-two years of age, in
the prime of life, capable and energetic; and the
State of Washington is fortunate indeed to have
a man of his outstanding qualifications

years he has been one of our respected citizens
and is good Republican. From 1912 to 1914 he
Republican County Chairman of Spokane. In
1925 one of the representatives from the 9Th
district in the legislature.
For thirty-two years the West side has had
the Attorney General and if the East side is to be
represented at all, there is no better position in
the state governmnt for us to have than that of
the Attorney General.
Judge Gent has strong support candidate
and if elected. certainly would be representa-
tive of the entire people. Yet there is an endeavor
to sidetrack him in favor of Emmitt Lehman, a
young Seattle lawyer, who has nothing in parti.
cuar to commend him to the people except his
political activity in behalf of Mayor Edwards
and against Mayor Landes in the last campaign
in Seattle.
