ARAB TRIBES IN
REVOLT AGAINST
PERSIAN GOVT
Report British Planes
Help Troops

BASRA, Iraq, Nov. 21.-Troops,
supported by airplanes, believed to
have been provided by the British,
attacked native Arab tribes, who
are in revolt in the Kubistan prov
ince Of Persia, it was learned here
today.
After a long battle, which was
going badly for the troops, air
planes were pressed into service,
and bombarded the tribesmen, who
then withdrew. Three Arab chief
tains were killed by the bombs.
The tribesmen are in revolt
against the Persian government,
which is understood to be supported
by the British. The cause of the
revolt is said to be oppression of the
tribesmen by the existing regime.
Airplanes are now securing the
province in an attempt to extermin-
ate the revolt, while the troops are
reported to be attempting to dis
arm the tribesmen.

BOSTON WORKERS
REUSED AT fines
Court Decision Orders
100000 Payment

BOSTON, Nov. q (FP).-Not in
years has Boston labor been so
stirred as by the 100000 fine levied
on members of the Boston Milk Wa
gon Drivers Local $50 by orders of
the superior and supreme courts, for
striking to defend their union. Dele
gates to the Central Labor Union
voted to go down the line with the
union in any action it may take
to test the decision.
Hot criticism was levelled at in
ternational union officials and at
torneys who advised the milk wagon
drivers to settle with the New Eng
land Creamery Products Co. for $685.
QUO. Drivers delegates said the mem
bership of their union had been
forced into accepting the compro-
mise on the threat that the COM
pany's offer would be Withdrawn and
that 500 a week would be taken
from pay envelopes instead of the
So later agreed on.
Delegates from other unions said
the transfers international officials
had placed every union in Massa-
chusetts at the mercy of the courts
W their acceptance of the compro-
mise settlement. This agreement,
they pointed out, placed union rati-
fication on court decision which
can be used to cripple future strikes
by making unions financially liable
for whatever losses may be claimed
by employers.

"No One Lost Except
Seven Chinese" Says
Hongkong Wreck Wire

SHANGHAI, Nov. 21.-When the
Dutch steamer arrived here carrying
four foreigners who were passengers
on the steamer "Hsin-Chi" of the
China Merchants Navigation Com
pany, it was revealed that the
Chinese steamer went on the rocks
on the treacherous Chinese coast
with 400 aboard, all except the four
foreigners being Chinese.
Rejecting the attitude of racial
superiority held by foreigners, the
British news agency at Hongkong
sent out dispatch saying that ''No
enc is missing except seven Chinese"
Coastal fishermen, always living in
a state of semi-starvation, profited
from the accident by taking every
thing valuable from the hulk after
the ship was deserted.

ADMITS ANGLO
FRENCH POLICY
British Govt Still Holds
to Naval Pact

LONDON, Nov. 21.-It was ad-
mitted in the house of commons to-
day that the policy underlying the
Anglo-French naval pact was Of
ficially approved by the whole cab
met, after Representatives of the
war andsnavy departments had been
consulted.
Godfrey Locker-Lampson, under
secretary of state for foreign af-
fairs, told this to the house of COM
mons after he had denied that the
committee of imperial defense had
been presented with the policy be-
fore negotiations were begun with
The French government.
The under-secretary also said
that England would soon reply to
the United States note of Sept.
rs, which rejected the Anglo
French pact as directed against the
naval needs of the United States
government.
The admission that the British
cabinet and general staff were sol
idly in back of the policy of the
naval pact further strengthened the
contention that, while Baldwin had
stated that in "fact" the pact was
no longer in existence, the policy
and spirit of the naval and military
pact with France was still effective
and supported by both governments

FIN NISH DOCK
WORKERS Still.
OUT ON STRIKE
Shippers Get Little Aid
From Strikebreakers

HELSINGFORS, Finland, Nov.
21.-The strike of the Finnish dock
workers is continuing here in spite
OF persistent repressive action on
the part of the authorities, who
have the entire support of the gov
eminent in their efforts to break
the long struggle.
Although they have now been on
strike for five months, the harbor
workers show no signs of giving
way in their struggle for collective
agreements.
There are no signs of settlement,
and unless the employers are pre-
pared to negotiate an agreement the
strikers are prepared to continue
the struggle. says statement is
sued from the headquarters of the
International Transport Workers
Federation.
The employers are attempting to
give the impression that all is now
normal, but a very different story
is told by the German shipping
journal, Nansa, which states:
"The Finnish authorities and or
@anizations connected with ship
ping are still Spreading reports that
the labor situation in Finnish ports
may be regarded as normal, and
that the effects of the strike are no
longer noticeable.
GAS a. result of these reports
ship-owners often sipn contracts for
Finland without securing any guar
antee that their ships will be
cleared in normal time.
although it NAV be possib'e that
in some places the CLEARING of ships
does not give rise to anv Difficult
ties it is also true that in other
ports conditions are nothing like
normal"
How poorly the industry is being
served bv strikebreaknrs is shown
by the following particulars from
the port of Kotka:
The Aira loaded 276 standards Of
timber in nine DAYS instead of the
normal three; the Fro 216 standards
in five days instead of two; Kotka
200 standards in six days instead
of two; Lit Larsen $50 standards
in four days instead of ~; Eman-
uel t40 standards in eight days in
stead of IL; Tjornbury 300 stand
ards in eight days instead of three;
Sierra Nevada $50 standards in
seven DAYS instead of 81.
Output is also far below normal
in other ports.

Wrappers did more than that. they
passed a resolution condemning the
Joint Board for dissolving the left
wing Strike Committee. and de-
handing that the resolution be
brought before the membership
meeting for its consideration.
Despite official recognition of the
fact that the workers are behind
the left wing, as the call for a
meeting indicates, followers of the
officialdom are beginning to circu-
late rumors so vile as to make the
blood of those who hear them boil
with rage. One rumor circulated
says that all those who follow the
left wing are we'll compensated with
a "good time" by the prostitute left
wing girls. Another rumor, while
ridiculous instead of sinister. has it
that the National Textile Workers
Union is paying $50 a week to all
followers of the left wing.

BERLIN, Nov. 21.-The debate
on foreign policy continued in the
German Reichstag yesterday. The
national socialists moved vote of
mistrust against Foreign Minister
Stresemann. This was rejected
against the votes of all parties ex-
cept the Communists and socialists
Willy Muenzenberg, Communist
deputy, was the first speaker in to
DAVIS debate. He demonstrated the
failure of German foreign policy
with regard to the League of Ma
tions, showing that the German
delegation to the Geneva conference
simply imposed greater burdens on
Germany in the matter of repara-
tions and evacuation of the Ruhr.
He went on to speak of the i'm
perialist policies of the present Ger
man government, and of the failure
of all so-called efforts toward dis
armament, showing that Germany's
protests against foreign ornaments
were simply to cloak her own build
ing of armored cruisers, etc.
Offensive Against Soviet Union.
Stresemann's speech made no
mention of the Soviet Union. This
is evidence of the fact that Ger
man policy is becoming increasingly
anti-Soviet. German banks are
joining with the English and czarist
Russian creditors committee in an
offensive against the Soviet Union
The German government, headed by
the socialist, Mueller, is in agree
rlent with this anti-Soviet policy
The Communists, Muenzenberg con-
tinued, will attempt to prevent an
imperialist war, or, failing that
will work to convert it into a civil
war.

floor to make an official statement
in the name of the committee. The
statement characterized the calling
Of the membership meeting as a
victory for the membership, which
stands behind tn cleft wing; point
ed to the need for the meeting to
decide on whether strikebreaking
act was committed when the Strike
Committee was dissolved because
the left wing had majority on it;
whether or not it was strikebreak-
ing act by the Joint Board when
they removed the heads of all the
vital committees, who were mill
tants.
After announcing that since the
Strike Committee had forced the
calling of membership meeting,
the meeting called by them is de-
clared off The statement then
charged that when the Joint Board
had called this Saturday member
ship meeting they called it for all
three departments of the union in
order to delay discussion on the real
issues involved. The questions in
volved concern only the striking
Broad Silk Department, while the
meeting call includes the Ribbon
and Hatband Department. 1t was
charged that by holding a meeting
of the striking members together
with those working, the officials
hope to carry an endorsement of
their expulsion tactics.
The statement, before concluding
with a series of slogans calling the
workers to the meeting, calling on
them to prevent another recurrence
of "strike committee dissolutions, !"
also makes the demand that the
Joint Board call special member
ship meeting of the Broad Silk De-
