Thus the most important phase Of
the experiments was proved; the

out Of the water. The Sd tests will
prove whether men can safely get
into the water from a submarine.
Theoretically, this is not difficult.
Tests in a pressure tank with an
equivalent pressure depth of 225
feet have indicated that. The Navy,
however, must prove it.
In submarine rescues at consider
able depth, pressure must be equa-
lized by admitting water to some
space in the submarine. There must
be an opening into the water from
such an air compartment. The

simple, it never has been tried out
in a submarine. Momsen and his
fellow experimenters must see what
happens when a submarine compart-
ment is flooded.
"1'm just the guinea pig" said
Momsen, who, as usual, will be first
to make the final tests. Disclaim-
ing any talents or training as a
diver or pressure expert, Momsen

! RESCUE DEVICE
1t. MOmsen to Test The Lung
Future Hope for Imprisoned
Men

Washington, Oct. 2O.-For q sec
ond time within q year tie sub
marine Sd is fated to sprawl help
Iessly upon the seas floor-but this
lime Is an agen. of Life and Science.
It is as though the Navy depart
ment wanted to give the SD a
chance to compensate for the grim
role it played last December when,
rammed and crippled, it trapped 40
men off the Cape Cod coast.
True, it will be but a reconditioned
hulk of the craft that went down off
Provincetown. But hulk in the
Interest of Life is some Improvement
over . trim ship that coquets with
Death.
Hazard still is to have hand in
the game. A man is pitting his in
ventive ingenuity against the handi-
caps of the underwater elements.
That man is Lieut.. c. B. Momsen,
Of the u. S. Navy. Some day soon
he will step out Of the Sd, after it
has been sunk in 1875 feet OF water
n lower Chesapeake Bay, near
Hampton Roads, and-unless his de-
vice fails him-he will rise slowly
to the surface.
Looks Like Gas Mask
In the probable event OF a sue
cessful escape, one or two other
Navy men will follow him, demon
strating the dependability Of = res
cue device which is expected to save
innumerable lives in the future.
The device which will enable
Lieut.. Momsen and his collaborators
to escape from the S-4, as many OF
the submarines original crew might
have escaped had they been equipped
with it, is called "the lung" In APP
pearance it is more or less like a
gas mask. !.
The dung furnishes supply of
oxygen and absorbs carbon dioxlde
from the breath. The principle of
its operation has not been disclosed,
but its primary and essential value
lies in the fact that it regulates the
pressure of the oxygen in accordance
with the great pressure Of the water
far under the sea. So long as the
human body is saturated with air
equal to the pressure of the water,
it can withstand the pressure out
side. The "lung" is an equalization
apparatus, maintaining the same
pressure within that exists without.
Functions at Any Depth
It's use is limited only by the
depth to which a man can go down.
= little more than 300 feet. Sub
marines ordinarily run 30 or 40 feet
below the surface while using peri
scopes and 80 to 100 feet otherwise.
One once went down 287 feet, ac-
cidentally, and had a hard time.
New submarines are tested slightly
above 200 feet.
The S-51 found her grave 141
feet below the surface and the Sd
was raised from 102 feet.

Reconditioning of the S-4 for

to New York to pick up equipment
for the test, and then to Hampton
Roads.
There, on a date yet to be an
nounced, S-4 will be sunk in 1876
feet Of water with Lieut.. Momsen
and perhaps two other men aboard
her-hoping they'll be able to get

Jury in Mexico Trial
Threatened in Riot;
Woman Admits Plot

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 6. U.D.-
Tension was great today in the little
suburb of San Angel as preparations
were made for resumption of the
murder trial of Jose de Leon Toral
and Mother Superior Conception
after a riot had forced adjournment
last night.
All spectators have been bal ed
from the court room for the remain
ing days of the trial as result Of the
riot, and jurors today were asking
permission to resign.
The riot came during the first
night session. One hundred mem
bers of the Obregonista party, which
had been headed by Alvaro Obergon,
the man Toral is accused of muir
dering, rushed into the court room
yelling threats at Toral, the nun and
their attorneys.
One of the witnesses at last nights
session was Maria Elena Manzano,
who admitted she had plotted to
kill Obregon and President Gales at
Celaya "to end my country's suffer-
ings." The woman, dancer, de-
MED, however, that she had been
urged to this action by the mother
superior, who is accused of being the
intellectual author of the assassina-
ton of Obregon.

Tomorrow afternoon, at 3 o'clock,
Harry Eisman and Bernard Kap-
Ian, Young Pioneers who were ex-
PEELED from Junior High School No.
81, the Bronx, for their militant
Communist activities, will appear
before district superintendent of
schools Wade.
They had been aided in their
struggle by other pupils, also mem
bers of the Young Pioneers, and the
opinion of the majority of the pu-
pills had conceded with theirs. They
had published a school bulletin,
1.-THE Young Spark" in which they
attacked the negligent administra-
ton of the school.
Several weeks ago, however, the
persecution of these pupils by prin-
cipal Mcguire, which had been 60
ing on for months, sharpened, and
both Kaplan and Eisman, who had
led the pupils in their demands,
were expelled from the school.
At the Madison Square Garden
celebration of the 18th anniversary
of the Russian Revolution and the
Communist election campaign on
Sunday, a resolution was passed
condemning the action of the lingo
principal and demanding the imme-
date and unconditional reinstate-
ment of both Eisman and Kaplan.

FRENCH CABINET
RESIGNS IN ROW
Poincare in Plot With
Radical" Ministers

Wireless to the Daily Worker)
PARIS, Nov. 6.-The Radical
Socialist" party congress meeting at
Anglers decided that "the realization
of the radical socialist minimum
program is impossible in the ma
tional unity coalition" Consequently
four radical socialist members of the
Poincare cabinet have resigned, in
GLIDING Herriot and Sarrault.
AS result, the whole cabinet of
Poincare has resigned.
The Anglers congress expressed
middle class discomfort with the
Poincare government, and a cabinet
crisis is the reply of the big bour-
geoisie. Poincare is probably plot
ting with the radical socialist min
listers to intimidate the masses and
strengthen his own position. He is
pointing out the dangers possible
from the collapse of the national
unity coalition.
On the stock exchange prices took
a sudden drop. The national unity
policy continues even if personali-
ties change. Poincare will probably
be re-instated with a socialist party
increase as pseudo opposition. The
Communist Party declares it will
fight capitalist naturalization, i'm
per.-.-.st war and the right danger
in the party.

SCHOOL HAS
ENROLMENT. OF 1000

The Workers School, conducted
by the Workers (Communist) Par
ty in New York, has begun it's sixth
year with a registration of about
1000 worker-students. This insti-
tuition is now the largest workers
school in the United States. Ac-
cording to its prospectus, it sac
cepts the class struggle as the driv-
ing force of social progress and
bends all its energies to the train
ing of workers for that struggle"
It's curriculum is chased on the as
sumption that Marx, Engels, Lenin
in their works and deeds have given
the proletariat a science of under
standing, organization and action
which directs it along its march to-
wards power an& emancipation"
The Workers School, it's prospec-
tus declares, is more than a train
ing school for active participants in
the labor movement; it supplies
speakers for strike meetings, and
organizers for unorganized work
ers; it's student body and the school
as an institution have participated
in such campaigns as the fight for
Sacco and Vanzetti, for miners re-
lief, aid to the unemployed, and
anti-imperialist campaigns. 1t slim

The school has developed rapidly
since its organization in 1922. Four
years ago it consisted of only five

conducted over so classes with more
than 1900 students. This year it

The w. l. R. has done splendid
work at New Bedford and deserves
the support at all times of all class
conscious workers. To the attempt
of the textile barons to freeze, starve
and Jail the strikers, we have
answered with food, clothing, and
defense. Without our help, the suf-
fering of the strikers and their
children would have been absolutely
intolerable. Our help enabled them
to fight longer and more militantly.
There are still victimized strikers in
New Bedford and Fall River that
need our help. We must not fail
them. In the mining fields many
thousands of militant miners are UNI
employed on account Of their strike
activity. We cannot slacken our eff
forts to relieve their suffering. We

RUBBER WORKERS
FIGHT WAGE CUT
Cambridge Police Try
to Break Strike

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 2, (By
MaiD. - Two hundred workers,
striking against wage cuts, formed
the mass picket line at the Cam
bridge Rubber Co., this morning as
their reply to the edict of the chief
of police that more than twelve
pickets would not be allowed. Forty
police were on the job to do the bid
ding of the bosses.
After about two hours of the
mass picketing the police began
breaking up the lines and making
arrests. Twenty-six were arrested
and taken before the court, includ-
ing the strike leader, V. Haig. After
considerable rummaging through
the law books no other charge but
that of lettering could be dug up.
Those arrested were released with
out bail and the trial was set for
November 9.
The arrested pickets were cheered
by the remaining strikers as they
left for the station in four trips of
the patrol wagon while they them
selves shouted back singing "Soli-
darity Forever" Due to the active
efforts of the l. L. D. all the ar
rested were released by noon and
they were met with wild cheers as
they returned to the strike meeting
from the Jail.
Early in the week the workers
had turned down the A. F. of l..
organizer who tried to assume lead
ership of the strike in order to be-
tray it. Now that the strike lead
er of the workers choice was in jail
new efforts were made to disrupt
the ranks of the strikers by the
A. F. of L. bureaucrats. But the
workers stood firm and are deter
mined to carry the fight to the end.
Wage cuts a~e also announced in
the Hood Ru- Jer Co., at Water
town, Mass, where nine thousand
workers are employed. Strike SEN
timent is reported to be very strong
and it is expected to bring these
workers out within the week.

Nov. 8, at $3.50 p. m.
This course will be a practical
course in Communist organization,
dealing with the chief problems con-
fronting party organizers in the
units, sub-sections and sections. The
lessons will center mainly around
the following text: Lenin, "On Or

ceedings of the various organization
conferences Of the Communist In

closely linked up with the first-hand
experiences in the day to day work
of our Party. This course, which
will take up such matters as how
to organize mass meetings, how to
arrange conferences, how to launch
campaigns, how to build up and de-

CONNECTICUT
Ammunition Workers
Know War Danger

NEW HAVEN, Conn, (By Mail).
Workers in the war industry of
this city listened to William q.
Foster, candidate for president of
the Workers (Communist) Party,
with the greatest interest here Sat-
urday.
Held in the huge Music Hall, the
meeting was preceded by a parade
with placards demanding Down
With Child Labor" Eight the I'M
perialist War" etc. These are vital
issues in Connecticut, where tens of
thousands of child workers, from
eight to ten years of age are ter
ribly exploited in the factories.
Here in New Haven is also the
center of ammunition manufacture,
the Winchester Arms, for example,
has been increasing production of
shells and ammunition rapidly the
last six months. This brings home
the danger of war to the workers
of New Haven.
Foster was greeted at the meet
ing with an ovation lasting several
minutes. In his speech he gave a
brilliant analysis of the republican
and democratic parties, the boss
parties, and the socialist party, the
straw-boss party.
He showed how.the socialist par
ty has aided the blacklist reaction
airy elements in the labor movement
and aids to preserve the present
capitalist system. He proved that
only the Communist Party fights
capitalism on all fronts.
