to her face. Her fingers released their

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Oct. 21.-
The most spirited Communist cam
paign ever waged in this stronghold
of the steel trust and big business
is now under way with the Workers
(Communist) Party attacking the
democratic and republican parties
and the renegade farmer-labor lead
ers who deceived and betrayed the
workers and farmers going over
bag and baggage to the big parties
of Wall Street.
The Workers (Communist) Party
is the only political party of the
workers and poor farmers in the
field in this election campaign, what
is left of the socialist party appeal
ing to the liberals to cast their votes
for their clerical, pacifist and, at
bottom, imperialistic candidate, the
Reverend Norman Thomas.
The task of placing Minnesota on
the Communist ballot was heavy
one. The ten thousand Communist
voters who cast their ballots in the
primaries were not able to sign the
Communist petitions to place the
Workers Party ticket on the ballot.

BRITISH SCARED
BY india UNREST
Cloak Suppression by
Scoring Reds

LONDON, Oct. 21.--The unrest
now prevailing in Afghanistan as a
result of new economic and social
measures introduced by King ANA
nullah Oh his return from London
and the likelihood that it may spread
to the Indian frontier causing seri-
Gus complications for the British
government, have led to charges
here that "Soviet agents" are foster
ing the revolt and capitalizing the
opportunity for the spread of pro-
paganda.
The process of "westernization"
advocated by the king, with its con-
commitant process of economic de-
velopment has already led to the
execution of those who oppose the
measure. The most significant side
of the matter, it is believed, is not
the fact that the natives object to
having their hair cut and wells re-
moved but the wave of unrest that
seems to be sweeping over the coun-
try.
With the unrest now prevailing
in India and sharpened by the ar
rival of the Simon Commission, any
native unrest is alarming to the
British, who would maintain con-
troll of India at any cost. Due to
the proximity of Soviet Turkestan,
and the constant fear of uprisings,
the British are taking the oppor-
tunity, it is generally pointed out,
to suppress the native uprisings,
while shouting Soviet scares.
