UNEMPL OYMENT
RISES IN ENCL And

LONDON, July 23.-Official fig.
ures on British unemployment show
an increase during the last month
and is even greater than February
1927, shortly after the termination
of the coal strike.
The percentage of unemployed
among the 11,S00,000 registered
workers on June 25 was 1913 as
against 9.9 month earlier and Sc
year ago.
Since the month of June there
has been further increase in I'M
employment, the number on July g
being 1,242,000. which was 24,922
more than the week before.
Nearly more than half of the in
creased unemployment occurred in
the mining industry. The number OF
miners employed at present is the
lowest at any time since the coal
strike.

SIGNIFICANT DECLINES
IN 1928 EMPLOYMENT

with June, 1927, public utilities a
slight increase and coal mining a
big increase since the strike of a
year ago. But there are still only
a third as many miners employed
as in 1922. Building construction
afforded about 8 per cent more jobs
than year ago.
The June report of the Illinois de-
partment of mines reflects accur-
ately the situation in the coal indus
try. The report shows ia mines
operating out of about 400 in the
state. These ia mines worked an
average of Al days during the
month, or about half time. A total
of 34,232 miners were employed out
of an estimated total of $4,000 in
the state. At one time there were
more than 100000 coal miners in
Illinois.
The situation in the mines is an
Improvement over May when los
mines operated an average of 1879
days and employed 29,779.

LISBON REVOLT is
SPREADING THRU
new DISTRICTS
Fighting Continues in
Spite of Setback

LISBON, Portugal, July 23.-
Government troops continued thru
the night to attack and whenever
possible to disarm armed bodies O.
Portuguese workers who had joiner
the revolt of seventh regiment anc
other forces at the CASTILLO Sac
Jerge here.
The utmost brutality is reported
to have been used by the govern.
ment detachments in subduing tn,
outbreak. The number OF slain anc
injured cannot as yet be estimate
but it is confidently believed that i
runs into the hundreds.
All attempts of the authorities t.
minimize the extent and seriousness
of the disturbance have been frus
trated by the persistence with which
the fighting between the government
troops and the unframed and badl.
armed civilians aiding the revolving
soldiers in the CASTILLO, has per
sisted.
Turnout the country disturbance
among the peasantry and the sol
diers have led to the belief that tht
immediate setback to the revolt il
Lisbon might not mean the end o:
the outbreak. Outbreaks are report
ed from Barreiro, Entroncamentt
and Setubal.

Lead Against War Danger

I in workers quarters, in factories and
villages. They have no reason to
make an exception with respect to
the barracks and warships where
workers and peasants in uniform
live under extremely difficult condi-
tions, subjected to the tyranny and
all sorts of chicanery of the officers
1t would be strange and unpardon-
able for Party of the revolution
airy class struggle to desert workers
living under such conditions, with
out enlightenment, leadership and
support. Therefore this work is to
be carried on everywhere, also where
it is prohibited" by the enemies Of
the workers and soldiers. Even some
left Social-Democrats, as e. g., Paul
Levi, speak about the necessity for
education of the members of the
army" although in this respect they
do nothing in practice.
For the aforementioned reasons
they work among the soldiers and
sailors is permanent task of the
Parties. This work attains special
Importance from the viewpoint of
combating war and militarism.
However, the work is relatively
weak in certain countries which arc
important from the point of view of
the war danger and war prepare
tions. In certain countries this work
still bears an episodical character
and at best is confined to the re.
cruits before their entrance into the
barracks, without the development
of systematic work and the estab-
lishment of organizational points of
support inside the army. In other
countries again the work does not
bear the character of mass work
but it is confined to small circle
of people inside the army and is not
based upon broad -militarist
activity among the toiling youth.
Party Must Do Anti-Work.
There is still observable here and
there lack of understanding or ar
insufficiency of interest among
Party members themselves with re-
spect to this work. Such expressions
applied to anti-militarist work as
criminal politics." military espion-
age" "plotters, etc., argue that g
thorough enlightenment on the
meaning and character of this work
is necessary even among the lead
ing cadres of many parties.

DENOUNCE FUAD
MOVE TO FORM
DICTATORSHIP
Wafd Issues Bitter
Manifesto

CAIRO, Egypt, July 23.-Nation-
wide indignation at the action of
King Fuad in dissolving the Egyptian
parliament for the period of three
years found expression today in 3
manifesto issued by the Wafd party
and denouncing the kings action.
Declaring that the dissolution of
parliament is a deliberate move to
placate British resentment, and in
timating that it is for the purpose of
maintaining his own position of
power by King Fuad, the manifesto
denounces the attempt to defy the
constitution and satisfy the ambi-
tions of foreigners"
The dissolution of parliament
which would leave Egypt virtually
the prey of dictator for an indefin.
tie time, since no circles here even
profess to believe that Fuad intends
to surrender his powr at the end of
three years, has caused extreme agi-
tation far beyond the nationalist
Wafd groups.
Labor leaders thruout Egypt are
alive to the peril to Egyptian work
ers and peasants which the con-
tinuance of British domination and
Fuad's subservience entails. The
length of the Nile there is a stir
of apprehension and anger in the
Egyptian villages which is only
somewhat less than that which shook
them a number of years ago and
made the British authorities see
their power slipping.
The feeling against the dissolution
of parliament is especially strong in
the cities, however, where the work
ers are denouncing Fuad's action
while they eagerly watch whatever
condensation the Wafd may de-
velop.

nine ARRESTS
IN FRANCE MAY
BEGIN DRIVE
More to Go to Jail in
Few Hours

PARIS, July Collaboration
between the French and the Spanish
authorities in campaign against
labor which is TO embrace two coun-
tries was revealed yesterday with
the arrest of nine workers for par
ticipation in an alleged plot against
the life of King Alfonso. The men
were arrested in south France and
more arrests are threatened at once,
The seizure of the workers was
made at the instigation Of the Span
ish authorities, reports from Bor-
deaux reveal.
According to the outline of the
Conspiracy" given the French by
the Spanish police, Alfonso was to
have been assassinated as he was
crossing the French frontier to open
the new tunnel under the Pyrenees
That the development of revolu-
tionary disturbances within Spain
have alarmed the Spanish authori-
ties was disclosed with the announce
ment that plans had been made to
have troops virtually equivalent to
an army accompany Alfonso on his
trip north. It was not known here
at that time, however, that the
French authorities were actively CO.
operating with the Spanish in crush
ing the outbreaks in Spain. Labor
leaders here now express themselves
as satisfied that the present arrests
reveal a concerted movement of both
governments to Jail militant work
ers, particularly in southern France
and in the northern districts of
Spain.

DEPRESSION HITS
FASCIST ROUlNANZA

THE severe economic depression in
Rumania which has become prac-
tically chronic In character, and is
being shouldered entirely by the
proletariat and the peasantry, is
causing widespread dissatisfaction
and resentment. This has been
amply shown by several strikes and
demonstrations held in many indus
trial districts of Rumania. With
the aid of the Siguaranza and mill
tary authorities, the bourgeois gov
eminent is doing it's utmost to
crush the labor movement by in
creasing its terrorist measures. One
of these measures which is mill
tating especially against working
ing-class interests and capable of
severely jeopardising the whole la
Dor movement, is the governments
intention to close the unitary trade
unions. Should it be borne in mind
that these unions are the only legal
labor organizations upholding the
Sldoo oIl ueslCy IllCii IilS dOSOlutC AS-
cessity, not only of preserving them,
but of strengthening and developing
them, becomes very plain.
The Executive Bureau of the Red
International Of Labor Unions, hav-
ing studied the position of the trade
union movement in Rumania and all
it's defects, adopted a resolution.
which in fact points out the basic
tasks confronting the trade union
organizations of Rumania.
Its Tasks.
/. The struggle to 1egalize the
trade unions is directly bound up
with the struggle to increase wages
in conformity with the rise in the
cost-of- living index. To struggle for
the 7-hour day, and for social in
surance, etc.
2. Capitalization of trade union
organizations, and their reconstruc-
ton on the industrial principle
8. To set up the united front at
the enterprises to struggle for the
everyday demands Of the workers,
utilizing as basis the factory COM
mittees and committees Of agricul-
tural workers.
4. Organization and guidance Of
revolutionary elements inside the re-
formist unions.

For the first time since 1928 Him
OILS factory employment increased in
June, according to the state depart
ment of labor. A "a per cent in
crease over the number of factory
workers employed in May casts an
amusing light on Coolidge prosper
ity. Industry may be breathing a
sigh of relief at the assurance that
Cal is slated for the discard.
The June increase in employment
is not sufficient to bring the level
I'D to a year ago. The number Of
factory employees in the state still
falls 2.7 per cent short Of June,
1927 and ia per cent under June,
1923. The span of Coolidge pros
perity has seen sixth of the fac
tory workers in Illinois lose their
jobs.
The Improvement over May is
generally distributed over the major
industries. But all the major indus
tries except that including machin-
ery. metals and conveyances report
fewer employees than in June, 1927
The figures reveal declines COM
pared with year ago in majority
of industries manufacturing consum-
err goods usually sold on the install
ment plan.
Iron and Steel Increase.
Outstanding increases in employ
ment compared with June, 1927,
were iron and steel 6 per cent, au-
tos and accessories 30.6 per cent,
agricultural implements IL per cent,
women's clothing 81 per cent, won-
ems underwear 81 per cent, wom-
ems hats 2o.8 per cent and dairy
products 6.5 per cent. There was
a slight increase in workers making
machinery. Practically all other in
dustries reported fewer workers
than a year ago.
Some of the declines, compared
with June, 1927, are hard to explain
except on the basis of improved ma
chinery. Although building con-
struction is running ahead of last
year practically all manufacturers
of building materials report consid-
cradle reductions in working forces
as follows: stone products decline
of 8.8 per cent, lime, cement and
plaster 25 per cent, brick, tile and
plaster IL per cent, sheet metal
and hardware 6 per cent, saw and
planning mills 14.4 per cent.
Significant declines, compared
with a year ago, among industries
producing consumer goods were
cooking and heating apparatus 81
per cent, electrical apparatus "a
per cent, watches and jewelry 3.4
per cent, furniture 14.1 per cent
pianos and musical instruments 30.5
per cent, household furnishings 1913
per cent, furs and fur goods 26.8
per cent, cotton and wooden goods
10.5 per cent, knit goods and hos
iery 1913 per cent, mems clothing z
per cent, mems shirts and furnish
ings go per cent, mems hats, caps
95 per cent. Except for dairy pro-
lucts all the industries grouped I'M
der food beverages and tobacco
show employment considerably re-
duced from year ago, and even
the manufacturers of drugs have
cut their forces per cent.
Mine Jobs Decrease.
Trade, including department
stores, wholesale and mail order es-
adjustments, shows decline of 81
per cent in employment compared
