prominent Oakland people have con-

The Letter
My darling sweet Kris:

My darling sweet Kris:
l see where there is chance of get
ting an extra letter sent to you thru
Scoop, and l want to be sure of get
ting my finger in the Christmas pie.
First of all, Santa, want another
radio, inexpensive, yet one which will
reach to London. The lamps in the
one last year weren't light enough to
read by, so give me service this year.
Last week l couldn't even get New
York on it, but when I got mad and
broke the tubes l heard Glasgow.
Next, Santa, give me something
for a bad cold. / seem to be tight
across the chest, and in fact there's
nothing loose about me anywhere.
Next, Kris, please send me a box
of cigars. Some people like to smoke
theirs as short as they can, but be-
lieve me, always smoke mine as long
as l can. Finally, Santa, if you have
any hair tonic in stock, it wouldn't be
a bad idea to send it along. None of
this stuff they sell at 'Bittner and
Stahl's seems to penetrate marble
dome. I mean it wouldn't, Santa, if
there was a marble dome here to rub
it on. l live on the same street as
Scoop, so you can't miss me. Tender
ly yours, Skeet Naylor.

Florida hunting for the youth fonnt.
Scoop had to tell them, then, that it

dual CAP UNION
RIGHT WING AIM
Attempt to Start Fake
Boston Local Fails

BOSTON, Mass, April 23.-The
war on all progressive forces in the
international Cloth Hat, Cap and
Millinery Workers Union, which was
recently started when the right wing
general executive board of the union
removed the militant leadership of
the Chicago capmakers' strike, has
spread to the Capmakers' Union of
this CITY, The right wingers have
been making repeated attempts to
break up union meetings held here.
The cody thought-out union wreck
ing plans of the followers of the right
wing president, Max Zaritsky, have
already resulted in an attempt of the
right wing clique to establish a dual
union here when their plans to break
up union meetings met with failure.
Right Wing Sabotage
When the special elections recently
held here at the order of Zaritsky re-
suited in the reelection of the militant
leadership by "a larger majority than
they had at the previous polls which
were declared void by the right wing,
the bureaucrats became frantic in
their efforts to GUST the progressives
from control. The right wingers
here, miserably small in numbers, de-
eided to make up for lack of follow
ers by an abundance of noise. They
came to meetings and sabotaged the
proceedings by refusing to let bust
ness proceed.
At the last union meeting they
capped the climax to their disturb
ance by an attempt to seize control
of the chairman's platform. Know
ing that their courage is fed by the
endorsement of their action by the
general executive board; and desiring
to prevent violence at the meeting,
the chairman ordered adjournment.
Hold Own Meeting
The right wing disturbers then
walked out of the hall with their
followers and declared that they
would hold their own meeting. This
they did. it was later learned. In
addition, they elected new set of
officers for the local, declaring in
the meantime that they had the back
ing of the employers and the national
union officialdom. They also an
nounced their intention of collecting
dues for what they claimed to be the
local recognized by the national Of
flee.
The leaders Of the Boston Cap
makers Union have as yet not an
nounced their plans for struggle
against the designs of the right
wing, but that decisive steps are con-
templated seems certain.

TIGER" TO WAGE
FIGHT ON PATTEN
Tammany Hall Out to
Capture Queens

A vigorous fight against the newly
chosen borough president of Queens,
Bernard M. Patten, will be made in
the forthcoming primaries by Tam
many Hall, it became known yester-
day.
Patten was selected to succeed
Maurice E. Connolly who resigned
under fire during the investigation
of the s29,5OO,000 sewer graft in
Queens. So bitter was Tammany
Hall against his selection that Mayor
James j. Walker refused to admin
lister the oath Of office.
The Tammany machine had hoped,
with the custer of Connolly, to be-
come the beneficiary of the personal
machine which the latter had built
up during the past sixteen years.
Garrett w. Cotter, a U. S. Com
has been picked to make
the fight in the primaries by
Tammany Hall. Defeat in the Queens
primaries would be extremely costly
to Tammany Hall, it is pointed out,
inasmuch as it would threaten it's
rule throughout the entire city.

"Out of School on May Day" is the
slogan raised by the Children's Con-
ference on May Day for all working
class children of New York. Ten
leaflets proclaiming this
slogan and explaining the signifi-

among the school children this week.
Six open air meetings have been ar
ranged to call upon working class
parents to keep the children home
for the celebration of this interna-
tional labor holiday.
The necessity for drawing the chill
dren into the celebration was brought
out in two statements issued yester-
day endorsing the activity of the
children's committee. The striking
fruit clerks issued one and United
Council of Workingclass Women the
other.

An announcement made by the tenn

committee states that applications for
permits to collect relief have already
been requested from the city au-

New England. These plans have been
made in addition to the countrywide
campaign contemplated by the Work

Council here is taking no direct steps
to prepare relief for the $4,000 unor-

The Textile Mill Committees have
condemned the union officialdom for
believing the declarations Of the mill

to keep the plants shut because they
have plenty Of stock on hand. The
bureaucrats have used this a pre-
text for refusing to organize for reg
