The note gives Marking the right

it does rot discriminate in favor of
imports from other countries.
The treaty is to become effective
on January /, 1929, if both govern

SHANGHAI, July 27.-Although
official circles of the Marking re-
gime expressed some dissatisfaction
that the pact signed by MacMurray

about extra-territoriality they look
forward to the recognition of the
Marking government in the near
future.
Reports from Toxic indicate that
Premier Tanaka did not receive the
note of the Marking government.

Although no note has yet been re-
ceived from the Japanese govern

that they will be unwilling to enter

Floyd A. Rowe, president of the
Cleveland Boy Scout council, appa-
rently forgot whom he was working
for when he issued an order that
each Boy Scout should accost any
woman he found smoking and re-
quest her to deposit her cigarette in
the nearest cuspidOr as daily kind
deed. Cigarette manufacturers, who
have kept out of the newspapers
the slightest hostile propaganda,
and whose eyes have been glisten-
Ing at the prospect of the immense
market offered by women smokers,
stood aghast. They sent instruc-
tiOns to James E. West, chief of the
executive board of the Boy Scouts
Of America. He wrote letter of
rebuke to the Cleveland scout head,
pointing out that his crusade showed
misunderstanding as to the real
aims and purposes of the BOY Scout
movement" The real aim is to Gre
ute obedience TO big business, not
characterization.

In some quarters this is taken
to mean that Gales has agreed to

term Gales is to serve will have
ended.

Whether or not Gales and his i'm
mediate supporters have made any
basic concessions or agreements to
the reactionary leaders is not yet
known
The policy of the militant labor
and peasant forces and the Mexican
Communist Party has been to give
qualified support to the Gales gov
eminent as against the extreme re-
action which is threatening the coun-
try. In manifestos issued by the
Mexican Communist Party and the
National Peasants the workers and
peasants were called upon to organ
ize for the fight against reaction

WORKERS IN N. J.
PREP AIRING FOR
BIG CONVENTION
Ratification Meet on
August 5

Turnout the length and breadth
of New Jersey workers organiza-
tons and labor unions ere prepar-
ing for the coming ratification con-
vention of the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party. to be held at SO Mercer
ST., Newark, on August 5, and are
preparing for the Red Proletarian
BANQUET which will precede the con-
vention by one day.
New Jersey workers are girding
their loins to do battle against the
democratic machine of Mayor Hague
the republican machine of Senator
Edge and against the democratic
Governor Moore, agent of the Pub
lie Service Commission. The army
of injunctions issued against work
ers on strike, the violation of the
free speech innumerable times, the
use Of police brutality against work
ers, and widespread unemployment
have all contributed toward making
the coming convention of the Work
ers' (Communist) Party an organ
lied mass protest against the depre-
dations of capitalism and it's play
mate, corruption; a mass protest
which will resolve into a militant
fighting body which under the ban
ner of the Workers (Communist)
Party will fight the capitalist
parties and spread the program of
the Workers Party among all
workers.
The ratification convention, which
will get under way at 10 o'clock in
the morning on August 5, will pre-
sent a scene of solidarity of labor
such as has never before been wit
messed in New Jersey. Delegates
will come from every city, town and
village, and will represent every in
dustry in the state. Unorganized
as well as organized workers will
be there to ratify the program of
the only workers. party in the
country.
The Red Proletarian Banquet tc
be held at the same address, 90
Mercer St., at o'clock on Saturday.
August d, besides being the scene of
much eating Of good food, will also
be turned into a protest meeting
against the War Danger, the date
of the banquet coinciding with the
14th anniversary of the outbreak of
the last World War. The charge of
admission to the banquet will be
one dollar, this covering cost of food
and permission to voice ones protest
against the war mongers.
All workers clubs which will not
meet in time to elect delegates to
the convention and banquet are re-
quested to be represented by MEM
bers of its Executive Committee.
For those delegates coming in from
outlying districts for both the ban
quet and convention, overnight ia
cilities will be provided free.

The city authorities are preparing
to mobilize the greatest array of po-
lice strength yet set up in the strike

large enough to attack the tens of
thousands expected to turn out.
Thousands of citizens here are
signing the petition circulated by the
Citizens Relief Defense and Civil

was tremendous. The petition de-
mands that the mayor permit the
textile strikers to exercise their con-
stitutional right to parade.
