SPAIN DICTATOR
WITH BRITISH IN
LATIN AMERICA
Halls Better Dolla +
Relations

MADRID, Jan. 2.-Closer relations
between Spain and some Latin
American governments was the out
standing political events of the year
1928, dictator Prime De Rivera of
Spain said in an interview today
with press correspondents.
The dictator mentioned h e
treaties which he had negotiated
with several South American gov
ernments, notably the close treaties
with Gomez, the dictator of Vene-
zuela. Much Spanish capital has
been invested in Venezuela and De
Rivera acknowledged the decoration
he had received from the dictator
Gomez with high pleasure.
De Rivera declared that he hoped
the League of Nations would be able
to settle the acknowledgements
conflict (which would mean enor-
nous progress on the road to uni
versal peace" AS a matter of fact
this utterance is taken to mean that
De Rivera favored British arbitra-
ton IN the conflict thru the League,
rather than American arbitration.
Speaking of conditions in Spain,
the dictator seemed to forget the
numerous revolts during the last
year AMI the thousands of political
prisoners in Spanish jails and ii
eoxile. He said that peace reigns in
Spain and that "all Spaniards want
to arrive at the moment when they
shall have a consolidated politica
regime" which, of course means the
regime of Prime de Rivera.

DAILY in CHICAGO
OUT TO BEAT n. Y.
To Distribute 10000 OF
Anniversary Edition

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. 2.-That this
city intends to stage a come-back
that will again make it the left wing
center of the country, was an
nounced yesterday by S. A. Krieger
Chicago Daily Worker agent.
The fifth anniversary OF the
"Daily" is being used to mobilize
the entire Party, he said. 10000
copies of the anniversary issue are
being ordered for special distribu-
ton before factory gates on Satur-
day, Jan. IL, and in a house-to-house
canvass the next day, in proletarian
sections. In this distribution the
names and addresses of candidates
will be secured and they will re.
ceive the paper free for trial per-
iod of two weeks.
Krieger continued:
This basic Communist activity
will result in bringing thousands OF
workers into contact for the first
time, with the only labor newspaper
published every day in the English
language. At the same time, it will
be the means of establishing Party
connections with hundreds of work
ers who will have become new read
ers of our Party press, and almost
certain recruits for our Party.
when the Daily Worker, and
later the National Office, moved to
New York, it seemed like a good
deal Of heart was taken out of all
radical activities; and, of course, the
worst to suffer was the Daily Work.

to lose interest as well as pride ir

in this phase Of our Party activity

Lifeboat, Manned BY 3,
in Transatlantic Trip

PLYMOUTH, Eng, Jan. 2 (UP).
The supposedly unsuitable Schut-
tevaer lifeboat, with crew of three,
started today for New York via Lis
bon and the Azores, to demonstrate
the small Dutch crafts ability to
cross the Atlantic without mishap.
The boat was manned by Capt.
Schuttevaer, its designer, who is 70;
the mate, c. A. Van Liam, and the
Boatswain, P. Meyer. They carried
300 gallons of water and 80 gallons
of paraffin for cooking. The boat
has no wireless. Schuttevaer ex-

Brutality of Police

SAN FRANCISCO (By MaiD. -
John Lynch, British war veteran,
has died in a San Francisco jail, it is
alleged as a result of brutal treat

Parliament Hats In
Fight Over Tomato

SYDNEY (By Mail) The Aus
tralian parliament and press have
split over the question of whether
tomato is fruit or vegetable. Sci
entists and botanists have been con-
suited to no purpose.
Legislation of national Importance
has been delayed. The difficulty
arose when it was discovered the
tariff schedules called tomatoes in
pulp form vegetables but charged
fruit rates when they were imported
in dry concentrated form.

The Fishwick-Lewis company union

Education Costs Twice
What 1t Did In 1900

WASHINGTON (By Mail. 1.-The
U. S. Bureau of Education, after
survey of LOO colleges and unversi-

youth to attend these institutions
is minimum of 1851 a year, or ST.

In tie spring and summer season
cat plenty OF fresh green vegetables
and fruits. The leafy vegetables and

and grapefruit among the best.
Avoid greasy fried foods, pastries,
sweets and starciiss. Eat less meat,
although fresh meat and fish raay be
eater prohtabiy once a day, unless
enc is suffering from severe acne,
v'heu it is wiser to refrain from
meat entirely.
Protein foods such as nuts, eggs
and cheese may be substituted for
meat or fish Ia the diet. Remember
that these are rich and highly con-
certrated and do not o~er-irdulge iu

Drink plenty of water. Bathe fro

and morning. with special washing

Never irritate the skin By harsh
rubbing. Instead pat it dry softly.
Protect it with a finn Of good noa-
