Great CROWD At
FOSTER MEET IN
ABERDEEN, WASH.
Says the Daily Worker
Is Only Militant
Labor Paper
Exposes 'Peace" Pact
Urges Fight to Free
Frame-Up Victims

ABERDEEN, Washington (By
MaiD The largest crowd present
at any meeting in this election cam
paign gathered last night in Work
ers Hall to listen to William q. Fos-
ter, presidential candidate on the
Workers (Communist) Party ticket,
explain the program and aims of the
Party in this campaign and expose
the big parties of capitalism and
the reformist socialist party as enc
mics of the working class.
The audience showed its er,thus-
iasm by frequ4nc applause and the
speaker was at his best. In homely
phrases and characteristic gestures,
he drove home his points with tell
ing effects. Foster declared that
the only political party appearing
! before the masses in this election
campaign with a solution for the
problems that confront the working
class and the exploited farmers is
the Workers (Communist) Party
He did not offer any short cut to
freedom, but insisted that the work
ers must free themselves from the
misery of their condition under capi-
talism by an intensified class strug-
gle fighting on the political and in
dustrial fields and perfecting their
organization for the final struggle
to overthrow capitalism and estab-
lish a Workers and Farmers Gov
ernment. The place for every mill
tant worker was in the ranks of the
Workers (Communist) Party, he
said.
War Danger.
Foster dwelt on the danger of i'm
perialist war that confronts the
workers of all countries and showed
that the United States was leading
in war preparations while talking
world peace. The Kellogg Peace
Pact, he pointed out, was an Amer
lean imperialist maneuver, which
would not stop war or even postpone
it.
The speaker declared that war
was the greatest curse that capital
ism has saddled the workers of the
world with, and that only a revo-
luton which would take govern
mental power out of the hands of
the capitalists and which would ini-
tiate the construction of a socialist
society was the only solution of the
war problem.
Lauds Daily Worker.
Foster dealt with the collapse of
the old radical movement in Wash
ington and all thru the northwest.
The Seattle Union Record, once a
militant labor paper, is now dead
and those who were once in the fore
front of the class struggle on the
side of the workers have given up
the fight and gone over to the ene-
my. He declared that the Commu-
mist Daily Worker was the only
militant daily labor paper now pub
lished in the United States in the
American language and deserves
the support of all workers.
Speaking about the frame-up sys-
tenn Foster called attention to the
crime committed against the Gen.
tralia workers now jailed in Walla
.Walla. Those militant workers
have now been over eight years in
Jail and the labor bureaucracy has
done nothing to help free them.

FORECASTING
DIR. FREDERICK r. GREEN
Editor of "HEAITH"

CIVILIZED man has learned to do
" much to control his surroundings
He seems almost Independent of out
side conditions. But one thing he as
vet can neither foresee nor control
the weather. As Mark Twain said. in
one of his after-dinner speeches.
Everybody talks about it but nobody
does anything
Yet the weather is what determines
our crops and our food. Apparently.
it Is the one thing man cannot fore
see or control. Our weather bureau
can now forecast the weather with
fair accuracy for a day or two in ad-
vance, but cannot alter 1t in any way.
That at least, is some advance A
cousin of mine in Alabama, near Mo
bile wrote me graphic letter after
the recent Florida hurricane, telling
how she and her husband sat for hours
by the radio, listening to the broad
caster in Pensacola telling of the prog
ress of that great storm as 1t swept
across Florida straight toward them
they had sufficient warning to get into
another house In a more sheltered To-
cation from which they saw their own
roof blown out to sea. But giving a
few hours warning is at present the
| limit of our knowledge of the weather.
| At convention of the National
| League of Commission Merchants of
| America at New York recently Mr..
| Herbert J. Browne Of Washington de.
! livered an address on "Long-Range
Weather Forecasting," In which he
claimed that, by careful study. it might
soon be possible to forecast weather
conditions, not only days but years
ahead.
This new field Is only about five
years old Up to that time SO hours
was the weather bureaus limit. Mr..
Browne bases his whole system ON the
fact that weather conditions, the
world over, are controlled by the heat
absorbed by the ocean. In a desert,
the sand Is very hot by day but rap
idly cools off when the sun sets. so
that one needs blanket to sleep at
night But water abSorbs heat slowly
and gives it off just as slowly. The
ocean in the tropics absorbs heat from
the tropical sun and the heated water
causes the great ocean streams like
the Gulf stream which then control
climate and weather.
What determines the amount of
heat which the Gulf stream absorbs
Sun heat What controls the amount
Of the suns HEATH Sun spots And
these, says Mr.. Browne, run In cycles.
SO the observer can accurately pre-.
dict weather months and years In ad-
vance.
