The LeSueur News-Herald said
in last weeks issue: "There being
no democratic paper in this section
we offer our columns to any demo-
crat who has something of i'm
portance to say to the readers of
the News-Herald. Naturally this
paper has much to say for the re-
publican party, but we do not in
tend to choke off any democrat
who has something on his chest he
wants to be relieved Of" This is
new kind of relief.
In this day of inventive genius
it is not surprising to see that
things deemed almost impossible
are being made and are success
full. The telephoto used in send
ing pictures thousands of miles
over wire is followed with what
might be termed another wonder
full invention. j. F. Mcdonnell,
editor of the Buffalo, Mimi, Jour-
al, has been granted a patent on
a device which will make those
pictures appear to have motion.
1t is especially adapted for the
comic sections, newspaper cuts
and can also be used for advertis-
ing purposes. Won't the kids have
fun when they get several reels
of good comics every Sunday
for a dime? Dad wants the Sun

Travellers Cautioned In
Driving Through Smoke
Highway Worker Clearing Up
Weeds Along State Property to
Prevent Snow Drifting

Caution in driving through
dense smoke, is urged in a bulle-
tin issued by the Minnesota High
way Department. At this time of
the year the section men on the
state highways are clearing away
the weeds and brush on the road
sides, partly for neatness sake
but mostly to keep snow drifts
from blocking the highways next
winter.
Where there is plowed field or
other fire-safe land adjoining, the
burning is done when the wind is
away from the road, but where
there are fields or meadows which
might catch fire, the burning must
be done when the wind is towards
the road. 1t is done i'm as short
stretches as possible, but the smoke
nevertheless creates hazard which
requires drivers to go very slowly
and carefully.

At Marshall, Minnesota, a mile

such an extent that the game lack
ed interest.
The horse racing began Thurs
day afternoon. The free for all
trot was a good race. Three of
the heats were close and the crowd
was greatly interested.
1t had been intended to pull off
an automobile race, but the track
is so narrow that it was deemed
unsafe. In place of this some of
the autos were sent against time.
Dave Caughren drove his Buick
roadster, covering two and a half
miles in 4:05k ". Willis Dean was
in the auto with Caughren and
looked after the motor. 1t was a
hair-raising spectacle to watch,
the machine skidding frightfully
on the turns. 1t was wonder
there was not an accident. w. F..
Keller also tried a few turns
around the track with his Ford,
but did not attempt to equal
Caughren's time.
While the receipts at the fair
were not as large as they should
have been yet the sum of S211.OO
was taken in at the gate. The of
ficers will probably have a financial
statement for publication in the
near future.
The first foot ball game of the
season at Sank Centre was played
at the fair grounds Saturday after
noon, when the local high school
eleven with one man in the game
who does not belong to the school,
met the Glenwood high school team
and went down to defeat by a
score of 33 to O.

In addition to going slowly,
every driver should see that he is
on the right hand side of the road.
Turning on the lights is another
Iprecaution which may help to pre-
vent accidents. Failure to drive
carefully may lead to collision
with an oncoming car, car going
more slowly in the same direction,
or a car which has been stopped
on the road.

HUGE INCREASE IN
BRITISH UNEMPLOYED

LONDON, July While the
Baldwin government makes fake
gestures in the direction of allevia-
ting the grave unemployment crisis,
unemployment continues to mount in
staggering way.
The official figures for the week
ended July 16, declared to be far
below the actual figures, show a
total unemployment of 1,247,400,
which is an increase of 4,967 over
the previous week and about 100000
greater than a year ago.
The coal industry has been partic
ularly hard hit and the number Of
miners employed declined further
during the week ended July 16, with
100000 miners working, as COM
pared with 914,300 the previous
week. A large proportion of these
miners are employed only part time.

FAIL TO BREAK
HAvRE STRIKE:
French Sailors Used as
Strikebreakers


PARIS, July 3O.-The French
government came to the aid of the
steamship companies yesterday
with decree from the ministry of
marine ordering the dock strikers
at Havre not to interfere with the
sailing of vessels for the United
States.
When the strikers on the French
Line steamship Rochambeau refused
to set sail thirty-five sailers from
the French navy were ordered to re-
place the striking oilers and stok-
ers and the ship left for the United
States.
Taking advantage of the govern
ment's strikebreaking attitude, scabs
ere being rushed from Brest and
other ports TO replace the dockers
on strike.
Leaders among the striking har-
Dor workers, however, assert that
the arrival of the strikebreakers will
not result in any real change in the
situation at Havre. They are con-
fident that the men will persist on
strike until their demands have been
granted by the owners.

ADMITS JOKER IN
TRACTION PLAN
Profit Will Be Private
Says Untermeyer

Admission that the much-talked of
transit unification plan would in fact
permit operation of the new billion
dollar subway by private companies
was made yesterday by Samuel I'm
termeyer, counsel for the Transit
Commission, the author of the pro-
posed plan. 1t was reply to a
statement issued by Mayor Jimmie
walker now in Hollywood in which
the latter virtually declared that he
would never favor plan which does
not provide for the operation of the
valuable lines by his personal
friends, the traction officials.
In reply, Untermeyer admitted
that his plan, which has been an
nounced as one providing for a quasi
public corporation, in fact can be
converted, so that private companies
may profit from the subways built
by the city.

Following the usual precedent set
by officials of public service cor

rested following an order issued by
Acting District Attorney Ferdinand

Latest figures put the total of
those injured in the smash-up. of
the wooden-car trains at CT. Seven
of those most seriously injured are
still in the hospital.
Notwithstanding the fact that
wooden cars have repeatedly been
condemned and have led to numer-
ous wrecks followed by injuries and
the loss Of life, the use of these
wooden cars is persisted in by both
the Interboroueh and the BIN. T.
Bail for Zwillig was set for s10,-

the accident are not yet known, it
is believed that a south-bound ele-
waited train about ten o'clock Sun

caused a short circuit.

Lovestone Speaks for
Party Committee

(Wireless to the Daily Worker)
MOSCOW, U. S. S. R., July 3d.
Continuing his speech at the twelfth
session of the World Congress of the
Communist international, Evert, of
Germany declared that refornlist IL
lusions among the workers repre-
sent a source Of right wing danger
for the Communist Party The
policy of the Communist Party has
been in general correct, he said. Diff
ferences of opinion had existed, how
ever, as for example in regards to
the return of Brandler and Thai
heimer but, since the ninth plenum
of the Executive Committee of the
+ Communist Ente1siational all differ
ences had been abolished. However,
organizational action is being taken
against the comrades who stand upon
the basis of the Essen Party Con-
gress decision.
Fractional struggles b betwee en-
groups who have no great differences
of opinion make the consolidation of
the party difficult. The struggle
must be carried on against right
wing deviations, but organizational
measures must be the last resort.
The Communist Party is faced
with great tasks as esult of the
growing aggressiveness of the bour-
geoisie against the workers and the
Soviet Union. Unity is absolutely
necessary. (Applause).

Zertuche, in charge of the investi-

Jose de Leon Toral, before a group

Toral not only involved indirectly
Manuel Trejo, a member of the

Toral said furnished the gun which
fired the deadly bullets, but the
young slayer likewise sought to ab-
solve the catholics who are known
to be responsible for the crime. He
added, however, that he desired to

the executive, include decreases in
