DISCUSSION ON

AT WORLD MEET
Pepper States Ameri-
can Delegations Stand

MOSCOW. u. S. S. R.. July 26.-
Chairman Jilek onened the seventh
session of the World Congress of the
Communist International yesterday.
The session continued with the dis
cussion of the theses of Nikolai
Bukharin.
Dunno, of the United States,
declared that Bukharin's theses
need supplementing with regards to
the United States. He pointed out
that the internal contributions in the
United States are growing sharper
and that the working masses are be-
coming increasingly radical.
The right wing policy of the Cen
tral Committee must be corrected
and work among the Negroes inten-
sified, was the view expressed by the
speaker. Agitation for the forma-
tion of labor party he character
lied as not permissible. The forma-
tion of labor party is only propa-
ganda slogan.
Various speeches and greetings
were then presented. The chairman
read telegram from Max Hoeltz
amidst applause.
Rasa, of India, next declared that
the theses must concern themselves
more with agrarian policy of British
Imperialism in India. The Indian
Communists must not repeat the
mistakes of the Chinese Party.
Balkan Problems.
Kolarov, of Bulgaria, declared
that in general his delegation is in
agreement with Bukharin, but that
an analysis of the world agricul-
tural situation is necessary. The
rich peasants are again allied with
the bourgeoisie, he pointed out, but
the poor peasants are going to the
left. This question demands the
special attention of the Communist
International, because the peasants

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, July 26.
Marine airplanes yesterday car
ried out one of the most vicious
bombing attacks on the military and
civil forces of Nicaragua yet to be
conducted according to report
which came here today. General
Sandino's troops returned the at
tack from hiding, it is stated, and
a number of the marine planes were
hit by the fire of the Nicaraguan
defenders of their country.
The marine aviators dropped
seventeen, eighteon-puond demoli-
ton bombs and eight fifty-pound
bombs. They also fired 5000 rounds
from machine guns.
The attack which took place along
the Portca River in northeastern
Neuva Segovia, was reported to the
state department at Washington by
Minister Charles G. Eberhardt.
The casualties are unknown. Es-

AS last resort, Killinger carried
the child to the Red Cross station in
Portage, Pa. Again the question:

asked. Killinger replied that al
though his six children were living
on barely one meal day, he would
not become a scab, pointing out that
the children would suffer far more
in the long run if the strikers did
not stick together.

Big Welcome.
Both Machado and Socrates San

were met at the railway station by
very large crowd which enthusias-
tically cheered them. Sandino came
from Nsw- York where he had spent
two years engaged in an extensive
propaganda work and from Gen.
Sandino's headquarters at FL Chipo-
ton, located in the very heart of the
Nueva Segovia range.
Machado was appointed to repre-

Nearly 1890 American marines
have been killed by Gen. Sandino's
troops during the course of the oper-

declared. "These facts are known
to the American state department"
he asserted. ~
The great crowd gave Socrates
Sandino and Machado a wild well

the welcomers the delegates of "Ma-

it as an abuse of power; on such |

"What if the democrats succeed ?"

PORTER'S WRIST
FOUND SLASHED
Officers Try to Break
Spirit of Youth

FORT ADAMS, R. l., July 25.-
The greatest efforts are being made
by the military authorities here to
break down the militant attitude of
John Porter, New Bedford strike
leader and to force him to repudi-
ate the labor movement.
Terms of Officers
Army officers have given Porter
the confidential" information that
he would have been released or given
short sentence if it had not been
for his militant stand at the court
martial, and that "even now it is
not too late" for release if he would
accept the terms of the authorities,
intimating that they would free him
if he would repudiate his Comnu-
mist principle. The authorities have
been trying to prevent Porter from
communicating with the organiza-
tions working for his release and to
make him believe that he is deserted
by the workers on the outside"
Mysterious Circumstances
Porter at present is in the hos
pital, with his wrists slashed under
very mysterious circumstances. He
writes that he woke up in the hos
pital and was told by the officers
that he had cut his own wrists. 1t
seems that this explanation" is
part of the systematic attempt to
remove Porter from the labor move
ment by all means, and to use every
method of terror to break the spirit
of this young worker.
