KANSAS CITY, June 13. (P)-Wick- ersham was introduced to the Recon mendation and Resolutions Committee and asked that in the future political appointments in Alaska be bonafide Alaskans. His resolution will be con sidered today. Alaskans hope their plank will be approved and an order issued to offset the appointment of Judge Adams

COMMITTEE OIV PLATFORMS FACE
 LARGE PROBLEM
MIG NARY -HAUGEN DEMONSTRA TORS VENT HOOVER SPLEEN
 AT HALL DooRWAYs

KANSAS CITY, June 13. (P)-Ring- ed about with the tightening grip of the Farm Relief issue but still un- ready to bring it's troubles into the open the Convention occupied itself with other things at a quiet and aI- most colorless session while a dele gation of McNary -Haugen demonstra- tors marched about the doors of the Convdption hall venting their dis pleasure with Hoover by shouting pre- dictions of his defeat and making noisy demand for satisfactory Farm Relief plank platform.
 The proceedings within the hall it. self concerned themselves quietly and almost sleepily with other things with the Platform Committee in deadlock over the Farm Relief plank which is not ready to be reported.
 The Convention has turned to the consideration of a delegate or two, adoption of routing reports from oth- CT committees, speech making, and just plain waiting.
 For a long period they stood at a virtual recess while the band high up among the iron griders had full sway. Farmers were prevented from carry ing their cries to the Delegates only by the threatening clubs of policemen.

EUa the Fifth at the Little
Provides Fair Entertainment

THE trials and tribulations of a
road company playing version
of Uncle Toms Cabin suited to the
standards of the state of Kansas,
said trials consisting of the badger
ing of a harassed manager who
finally leaves his troupe stranded
on a siding, the effort of go-get-
ting hick undertaken to take unto
himself in marriage the leading
lady and the emotional disturbance
brought to her thespian lover by
the ambition of the solvent NOR
tician, bring laugh from perspir-
ing audience in the Little Theatre
where eva the Fifth" is on the
boards.
The story begins in Little Eva's
dressing room at a one night stop
in Kansas. The box office contains
everything but money and the
troupe has not enough of the coin
that cheers between them to buy
castor oil for. Little Eva's lesser
sister, whose fondness for candy is
her chief business in the show. The
manager at his wits end to make
things go, dug up wealthy bust
ness man, and Immediately saw
wings sprouting from the yokel's
shoulders. Badly in need of an
angel he broadly limited that Little
Eva, claiborne Foster) should
treat the hick with tact and cour-
tesy, in other words, string him
along for the sake of the business.
Tho embarrassed by a jealous
lover, Little Eva did the best she
could, but being obviously virtuous,
as is the rule in plays produced by
Mr.. John Golden, it is reported, Eva

away with her realistic description
of the shows financial condition.
This lack of business acumen ang-
cred the show manager so he left
the troupe to its fate on a siding.
1t was then that the entire troupe
with but single thot for food and
transportation urged Little Eva to
accept the attentions of the hiking
hick who followed her from town

to town. Finally she offered herself
up on the matrimonial altar for the
sake of her comrades. But two
things happened that saved her
from a fate worse than death. Her
thespian lover-a squint-eyed critic
could see from the start that he
was first in her affections-estab-
lished his leadership over the
troupe by staging show in the
little town that brought in coffee
and doughnuts for the troupe and
the lesser Eva learned that the
wealthy hick was an undertaken
and not a furniture dealer as he
led her big sister to believe.
Everything ended happily, with
out bloodshed or much hard langu-
age. In fact the only violence in
the play was when the bloodhound.

KANSAS COMMUNISTS
FIGHT BOSSES DRIVE
by a Worker Correspondent

by Worker Correspondent
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (By Mail)
Tuesday morning, at half past
eight, comes up the trial of Hugo
Oehler, Ed. Eastwood, Nelson, Sto-
cum, Sam Kassis, Matthew Cush-
ing and others on their second set
of charges which are vagrancy. To
be sure Hugo Oehler and M. Cush-
ing have been arrested twice and
both times were charged with vag
rancy in addition to Hugo Oehler's
indictment for alleged violation of
the criminal syndicalist law. 1t is
expected that more charges against
Cushing will be brought up in court
and also against other packing
house workers. Gushing was ar
rested at first together with Oehler
when they were addressing a meet
ing of the Armour workers at the
gates of the plant at noon. After
the meeting was broken up by the
police and both of them arrested
Hugo Oehler was beaten up and
when brought to Jail hypocritically
charged with vagrancy.
Captain Beatty admitted to the
local newspaper reporter that the
arrests were made following COM
plants of the Armour Company,
that two "Reds" were agitating the
workers frequently appearing at
the gates. A policeman who arrested
Hugo Oehler said that he did so be-
cause Hugo Oehler wanted to or
ganize the workers against the
bosses.
Many spies in the past months
have been trying to enter the Party.
Even now spies are all over spying
on Party members and workers in
general. The company officials of
Armour are anxious to find names
and information. When the arrested
were brought to the police station
they were thoroughly searched and
while this was done a company of
fetal stood by greedily looking for
names" Almost the entire capital
ist machine the courts, police, detec-
tive agencies, stool pigeons, spies,
including the word-heelers of both
parties, have been modified to
stave off the Communists. All these
visit neighborhoods and homes
of workers suspected of rad
ical or Communist leanings
and these are being threatened
in an underhand way. One
politician approached one worker
whom he suspected of synpathizing
with the Communists and said, "Did
you hear of what the government is
doing to them Reds, the trouble
makers? Kansas is a tough state
and we will clean out all the Reds"
Negro communities are also visit
ed and are told for the sake of the
preservation of the Negro race to
stay away from the Communists
and remain good American citizens
and support the Deems. and Reps"
In other words, the Negro workers
should not fight for their emanci-
patton but should be thankful and
kiss the hands of their exploiters
and lynchers like willing slaves.
