 Precinct No 2, the downtown ward, was the only one to regis ter an. increase. the total being 241 as compared to 239 of year ago. The vote there at 2:45 D. m. was 100.
 In the Third Precinct, there was decrease of 20 in the number of registrations. 16S this year as compared to 1SS in 1927. The vote cast there at midaftenoon was but 69. smaller proportion ately than either of the other two.
 However. at all three polling places, it was said by election of- ficials that the rate of voting was getting heavier since early this afternoon II was expected that a big majority of the registered voters would have cast their bal lots by the time the polls have closed at D. m.

that there really is no fundamental economic
antagonisms that are irreconcilable and that
lead directly to another world conflict
The ruling classes of the two imperialist
powers are aware of the fact that the time is
near at hand when the final word will have
been spoken around the diplomatic tables and
the struggle will be transferred to the field
of mars, but their newspapers dare not yet
admit it.
Let no one be deceived regarding the real
world situation and the causes of the Anglo
American conflict. Wars do not arise because
of phantoms that obsess diplomats and they
cannot be avoided by insipid talk about mis-
understandings" or by the creation of
body of opinion" as the World suggests.
The only way to fight imperialist war to-
day is to wage struggle against imperialism
and all its ramifications. Only the workers
and farmers, those who bear the burdens of
war can fight effectively against the war
danger by directing their attack against their
own ruling class. Let those in the United
States who are now preparing the next blood
bath for the oppressed of the world in order
to decide which of the imperialist powers
shall get more of the pelf of the world know
that in the next imperialist war we will do
everything in our power to bring about the
defeat of our own ruling class in order to
weaken them and make possible situation
in which the power of government can be
wrested from them and in its place will arise
a working class state that will enforce the
will of the toilers instead of that of the para
site war-mongers.

Davis Urges Greater Speed-Up

1t is quite in keeping with the treacherous
role of the officialdom of the American Fede-
ration of Labor that the New Orleans con-
vention of that body could enthusiastically
approve the remarks of James j. Davis,
secretary of labor in the cabinet of the i'm
perialist government of the United States.
Both the millionaire, Davis, and the flunkey
of millionaire industrialists and imperasts
Bill Green, stand on the same platform as
enemies of the working class Both of them
consider the ideal of "Americansm" to be
nation of subservient slaves Both of them
are opposed to strikes and advocates of the
speed-up and all the other slavish require
ments of capitalist naturalization
The American Federation of Labor
Bureaucracy, the most vicious and re-
dictionary on the face of the earth, roared
and shrieked approval when the head of the
labor department of the strike-breaking Mel
observation-disclosures government proclaimed
the false economic doctrine that the more
work and the better work labor does, the
more the employers can afford to pay in
wages.
Before a convention of real representa-
tives of the working class such an assertion
would call forth the most devastating re-
buke. A real labor gathering would have in
formed the secretary of labor in no uncertain
terms that it most cetegoricaly rejects such
treacherous policy. 1t is an economic fact,
known to every man or woman who works
in any industry, that the more work that is
turned out the sooner the market supply is
filled, the sooner workers are out of employ
ment, and that when there are many people
on the streets, anxious for work so they can
cut the wages of those who remain at work.
Davis, like Green also expressed the
platonic opinion that the introduction of
labor-saving machinery should enable the
workers to shorten hours. But when the
A. F. of L. follows the line of Davis and the
rest of the millionaire cabinet members and
urges adoption of an anti-strike policy it
makes impossible realization of shorter
hours. Instead that also means more men
out of work and further reduction in wages
of those who work.
The only way to meet the problem of i'm
proved machinery and naturalization is the
building up of the Workers (Communist)
Party and strengthening it's leadership and
influence and the organization of powerful
labor organizations that will utilize the strike
weapon to compel the employers to grant
shorter hours and higher wages. To refuse
to approve that kind of action is to play the
game of the master class against the work
ing class-a game at which both Davis and
Green are adopts.

Idealism Needed
 In Some Matters
There Is Too Little of It In
 Sex Education.

There should be more idealism and beauty taught in sex education, according to "Mother" Stoner, Dr. Winfred Sackville Stoner, noted feminist and mother of the prodigy Winifrc1 Stoner, 2nd
 If parents could teach their children almost from the cradle to glorify the function of sex, it would eliminate the distressing sordidness that darkens the lives of so many millions" Mrs. Stoner contcnded.
 "Instead of letting children think father and mother have their love on the sly, children should be told the whole truth of life and the beauty of creative instinct
 "Children should be taught how important health and the care of their growing bodies is. Their whole attitude towards life would be cleaner and sweeter. Life today has all too little idealism in it.
 Early marriages, l think, make for saner, more moral lives. And l am convinced if children were taught to regard sex in the Nght way, there would be better morals more early marriages and greater happiness

Woman Traveller
 Tells Of Africa

New York, June Is P-White people no longer are strangers to the Africans and travelling in the Dark Continent has lost much of its discomforts, reports Miss Alice O'Brien of St. Paul. Minn. "The picture of Africa as an un- explored wilderness is a hoax" she said here upon returning from an eight months tour of that conti- nent. Tt was the greatest surprise of our trip. l don't believe there Is 8 black man, woman or child in the country who hasn't talked to white people.
 "Airplane service. railroads. au- tomobiles and filling stations stand side by side with so called 'canni- bals' and elephant trails. It Is pos- sible to travel straight across Af- roca without leaving commercial transportation.
 "Even on the foot trails people travel in tepoys or chairs carried by four native boys"
 Miss O'Brien's party, including Benjamin Burbridge, game hunt CT: Blair Flandrau. Mrs. Grace Flandrau, authoress. and C. E.

 ! Influenza, which attacked them in the Congo forest, ten days from a doctor. was another danger.

 New York. June D Bathing suits for the stronger sex have div cd right into the style class of clothing this year.
 If Mir, Man knows his strokes, he will swim this summer in a novelty bathing suit that. by it's color and design. could be nothing but this seasons model.
 For the plain old black or navy blue suit has been relegated, so- oially speaking. to the aged gentle men who still hang their clothes on a hickory limb but no longer go near the water.
 Striking Designs .,
 Bathing suits this summer have a flair for design, first of all They answer that incessant call for some- thing new. One glance at fhelp proves that men are getting clothes conscious.
 Mortised stripes, checks, jazzy lightning flashes of crimson, orange, bright blue, vivid green across white, tan or a dark background will bring life and dash to beaches this year.
 Prison stripes are quite the thing. So are collegiate ones. These are graduated lines of color on a con- trasting background. Then there are some that have tricky diamonds, polka dots, checkers and so on, in black white, red black and other color combinations. There are even modernistic ones with broken geo. metric patterns woven into them.
 For Sun Baths
 The newest thing i'll bathing suits is the 'legless" model or course it is misnomer. The trunks ar' shorter than the outside. which looks about the way an elongated shirt would.
 the armholes and neck and with its very short length gives a much bet ter break so far as ,sunbaths arc concerned than the ola style suit. A fine all-oyer red striped pattern or tan is one of this new style.
 u IpOhS dS IL IlOSl lHtl the lighter upper and dark shorts type of suit with belt for decora tion. Some of these have tricky bandings, among which one suit 1T cream has bright. penetrating greer lattice work design across the bot tom of the shorts and the top o1 the shirt.
 Monograms are appearing for dec oration. Some are round, diamond shaped or other decorative shapes This sort of personal touch get' better and better.
