ready breaking through in Gastonia,
in New Orleans-the possible sus-
pension of The Daily Worker.
The letter from Comrade Fillmore
follows in part:
up in this far corner we also are
awake to the danger the Daily is
in, also the left movement generally,
due to the unprecedented shortage
of funds needed to enable us to
stand by our guns in Gastonia and
the many other battlefronts of labor.
with the opportunity at last here
to rid the Party of faetionalism, it
seems to me that now is the time
for each class conscious worker,
each exploited toiler to carry the
message to his fellow-workers and
in words that will sink deep show
what golden opportunity we have
for results if only the funds for
carrying on can be secured.
"And what a relief it is to realize
that those funds dug up from lean
hip pocket will go to unite and build
a Comintern party that will be a
credit to its builders.
"Let us truly sense what this i'm
perialist war coming on will really
mean. Those with little experience
in the last war will need a powerful
imagination, but even so the more
we all can learn now the better pre-
pared we can be. With our feet on
the ground and free of the curse of
factionalism, in the next few years
real working class history will be
made.
"The only thing worth while, the
Social Revolution, is put within our
reach-let nothing stand in the
way"
Workers, go after those funds in
the lean hip pockets of your shop
mates. Show them that a contribu-
ton to the Daily at this critical mo-
ment in its life is an investment in
the future Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics of America. "Let nothing
stand in the way"

247 Hour Flight By
Means of Refueling

CULVER CITY, Cal, July IA
Many times refueling in air enabled
the pilots, Loren Mendel and r. b.
Rheinhardt, in the biplane "Ange-
leno" to make a fight of practically
247 hours. This record beats that
of the previous highest, made by the
plane, Getty of Cleveland" by 70
hours. The "Angeleno" flight ended
at 2:15 today through failure of the
last refueling attempt.
The amount of space covered
would have enabled the plane to
have bombed Central Asia or Bue-
nos Aires from base in the United
States.

ton between the war problem and
the various questions of daily life,
especially such as regard the grow
ing influence of fascism and all phe-
nomena of increased economic ex-
ploitation.
Secondly, it is our intention to
propagate in the masses the achieve
ments of the Soviet Union and to
convince them of the necessity of
defending these achievements.
Thirdly, we desire to unmask the
active part played by the reformists
in the imperialist war preparations;
fourthly, to mobilize the masses
from below for the active fight
against war on the basis of united
front tactics; filthy, to persuade
the masses that a successful fight
against war can only be waged along
feminist lines"

Turn Daily Struggles
Into Mass Fights

4 PRAGUE, July 14.-Bolshevik or
ganization of the daily struggles of
the workers, the connection of these
struggles with the widespread fight
against the acute war danger, and
the transformation of isolated eco
monte fights into a centralized po-
litical struggle to eliminate in huge
demonstrations on International Red
Day on August First-these are the
tasks to which members of the Com
munist Party of Czechoslovakia are
working hard to realize in prepara-
tion for August First, according to
an article in the International Press
Correspondence Inprecorr) by v.
Kovar, of the Czechoslovakian Com
munist Party.
Important for War on U. S. S. r.
With its whole area the center
Of the war preparations against the
Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia plays
an increasingly important role in the
struggle of the imperialist powers
to encircle the Soviet Union, Kovar
shows. This was expressed at the
recent conference of the Little En-
tente, when the question of Czecho-
slovakian relations with the U. S.
S. r. was of prime Importance.
At the same time, while the rul-
ing class here becomes more respon-
sive to world imperialist demands,
it increases its campaign of violent
repression of every working class or
ganization. Capitalization of state
authority, rapid passage of excep-
tional laws, the assault on whatever
vestiges are left of the freedom"
of the press and assembly are only
some of the means to which the au-
thorities are resorting in an effort
to consolidate their supremacy.
Terror on Workers.
Sweeping application of this ter
ror has already transformed every
strike waged by the Red Trade
Unions into a political struggle
against the armed forces of the
state. In this stronger political
struggle, which is gradually being
forced deeper into illegal channels,
reports from every center in the
country indicate that the Commun-
list Party here is regaining it's in
fluence with the mass of the work
ers and combating the damaging
effects of the right wing policy pur-
sued by former opportunist leaders
for the past several years. The ex-
tent of this recapture of control
will be largely gagged by the August
First events.
Must Expose War Danger.
"What is it then we aspire to at
tain by the action of August First ?"

Get Own Light.
The electric light company at
Bessemer City has cut off the lights
of the unions new headquarters, in
an attempt to bleed the workers by
forcing them to pay for bills the
company claims were run up by
previous occupants of the house.
The workers are refusing to be dis
couraged by this, and have resorted
to the latest thing in illumination,
Iincandescent lanterns, and hold al
most nightly mass meetings outside
of the headquarters. The men stand
around in throngs, and their wives
come with the children and sit in
the center. After each meeting,
numbers of mill workers go inside
and sign up in the union.

 The glorious court daya were recalled when the male partici- pants appeared in military uni- forms, with spiked helmets, and saluted the former Kaiser, who was wearing Field Marshal's uniform, and highest decorations of Germany and many other na- tions.

Says Democrats Will Op- pose Limitation of
 Special Legislation

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-Her- bert Hoover is going to bump into a fight with the Democrats on the proposal to limit the in- tended extra session of Congress to consideration of tariff n q farm legislation.
 Senator Joseph T. Robinson. Democratic leader, sounded the war cry with the declaration against Hoover's proposal which he terms as being unconstitu- tional.
 There are many things on which legislation will he needed if the extra session is called and certainly there is no constitu- tlonal method by which the Seu- ate can be limited in the exer- else of legislative duties" said Senator Robinson,
 However, Republican leaders are looking confidentially to the power Of an overwhelming majors ity in the House to carry out the limitation scheme. It is conceded that if the House Republican leaders finally decide only to or ganize necessary committees for consideration of the tariff and farm relief, no other legislation can be put through there. The Republicans have majority of almost one hundred in the House.

SHOW DOWN ON CRUISER BILL
 DUE THIS WEEK
Senate Votes to Stand by One House Provision
 Coolidge Fight

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The Senate, late last Saturday voted to stand by the House provision in the cruiser construction bill re- quiring eight of the proposed war ships and one aircraft carrier to be built in Government yards. This cleared the way for show down during this week on the big con troversy raised by President Cool idge's esire to eliminate the clause requiring to start building by 1892.
 While the Senate argued over the navy yard question, leaders were busy counting noses for the voting engagement on the domi- nant issue, whether the President should be given authority to ini- tiate the carrying out of the cruis- CT program as he deems best. The friends of the bill insisted Satur- day night that Coolidge again faced defeat. The House last year re- jected his proposal to eliminate the limitation provision. Sena- tor Bingham, Of Connecticut, of fered an amendment to strike out the House provision to give the navy yards half of the 16 warshps and proposed instead that it be left to the discretion of the Secre- tary of the Navy as to where The ships will be built.
