''FLAM|NG FOREST" Is
 STORY OF TIE FAMOUS
 MOUNTED POLICE. CANADA

The stirring history of the found- ing of the great Canadian Northwest Mounted Police, an army of a few who conquered the lawlessness of an a1- most unexplored empire within the confines of the Dominion of Canada, has been reproduced on the screen by Cosmopolitan and will be seen at the title "The Flaming Forest"
 The picture, directed by Reginald Barker, famous for his direction of great out-of-doors films, is a screen adaptation by Waldemar Young of James Oliver Curwood's immortal story of the establishing of law and order in territory of 100000 square miles by some 300 brave men who dared death daily and always "got their man."
 The picture, filmed largely in Cana da and Montana, is interpreted by a cast of 20 celebrated players with Antonio Moreno and Renee Adoree in the leading romantic roles. Among the other celebrated players of the cast are: Gardner James, Oscar Bere- gi, Tom O'Brien, Bert Roach, Claire Mcdowell, Clarence Geldert, William Austin, and little Mary Jane Irving.

RED LABOR INT'L.
IN MAY DAY CALL
Points to New Offensive
Against Workers

Especial Cable to The Daily WOrl<er)
MOSCOW, April 26.-The Red In
ternational of Labor Unions has is
sued the following May First mani
festo
"May Day should be militancy day.
The industrial magnates of all coun-
tries have inaugurated new ex-
tended offensive against the OPP
pressed classes. To ensure the con-
tinued existence of the capitalist sys-
tenn of exploitation, the employers
must force down the living standards
of the workers to the lowest possible
limit. In the last few years workers
have everywhere been deprived of the
eight-hour day. Everywhere real
wages have been reduced, labor pro
lection diminished and the labor en-
ergy of workers drained without re-
serve by industrial naturalization.
Poverty, distress, sickness, danger to
life are becoming the more constant
lot of the toiling masses.
Unemployment Grows.
"At the same time there is growing
unemployment in England, Germany,
America and elsewhere. Millions of
unemployed are the victims of the
capitalist offensive. The whole capi-
talist system is becoming a mighty
chain and brake, permitting no free
development.
"Fascism has been established in
numerous countries as a system for
the continuous oppression of the
working class. The rights of the
working class have been abolished.
Trade union and political organiza-
tions have been smashed.
cat the same time the predatory
bourgeoisie of the United States
which is waging war in Nicaragua Of
fers everlasting peace to the great
powers to gain time for a joint at
tack against the Soviet Union which
has long been under preparation by
the British bourgeoisie.
7-Hour Day In U. S. S. r.
Furthermore the seven-hour day
has been introduced in that country.
Why? Because the proletariat of the
Soviet Union has smashed and driven
out the exploiters. That is why the
hatred of all enemies of the prole
tariat-4of capitalists and their allies
lis so acute against the rule of the
Soviets; that is why they are threat
ening the Soviets with boycott and
war.

able to take up such a policy can be

PASADENA, CAL, APR. 26.-The
fair weather publicity agents of
this region are making sgreat claims
for the California clin.ate on the
strength of the fact that the health
of Albert B. Fall is reported picked
up considerably out here.
Fall is the hardy son of Texas who,
as secretary of the interior under
President Harding, received $233,0 900
from Harry F. Sinclair at the time
of the Teapot Dome oil reserve lease
and 100000 from Edward L. Doheny
at the time OF the Elk Hills oil re-
serve lease. His health was not bad
when he got the Sinclair bonds and
when Doheny sent him his cash in
the famous "little black satchel." It
didn't begin to go bad on him until
the democratic party began to object
to Fall and the other republicans get
ting so prosperous.
WHEN Fall was indicted in one
Tease with Doheny and in another
case with Sinclair he began to feel
quite run down, however. He COM

of the 10000 textile workers here,
who walked out 100 per cent in a
struggle against ten per cent wage
cut, the Textile Mill Committees here

taken to spread the strike to the

The Fall River Workers were pre-
vented from striking against a similar
wage slash several months ago by
the officials the American Fedora

A group of organizers were dis
patched to Fall River by the national
executive committee of the New Eng
