|LETTISH POLICE
RAID WAREHOUSE:
!. OF U.S.S.R. TRADE
Arrest Many Workers
in Search of Houses

RIGA (By MaiD. - In the last
few days the police have carried
ors numerous searches in the homes
of workers in the harbor neighbor-
hood. The police raided warehouse
of the Russian mercantile marine
at time when no representative of
the management was present and
arrested two cleaning women alleg-
ing that proclamations were found
on them.
Altogether 20 persons were ar
rested, including one or two Latvian
employees of the Russian mercantile
marine. Is of the arrested have al
ready been released.
MOSCOW (By Mail).-The PRAY
da" declares that the search of the
warehouse of the Russian mercantile
marine in Riga is one of the many
attacks on the institutions of the
Soviet Union in Latvia. Such at
tacks had become systematic under
the present Latvian cabinet. 1t was
the intention of the Latvian govern
ment to compromise the growing
working class movement in Latvia by
declaring that it was "made in Mos
cow and supported by Russian
money" etc.
A systematic interference with
the activity of the Russian mercan-
tile marine would have serious eff
fects upon the transit traffic in
which Latvia had considerable in
terest. The anti-Soviet activities
of the present Latvian cabinet
would compel the Soviet authorities
to review the question of further
economic relations with Latvia. Pub
lie opinion in the Soviet Union de-
manded that the Soviet government
should draw the necessary conclu-
sions from the anti-Soviet attitude
of the Latvian cabinet.

the finances of Europe thru the
American Dawes Plan delegate
Young's proposed international
neutral" trust and bank for the
sale of German war loot. This war
loot consists of the payments in pro-
duce which will be taken from Ger
many every year thru the working
of the Dawes plan.
The neutrality" camouflage fools
no one. All see it as world trust,
controlled by American finance. The
Communist Party has all along
pointed to this further encroachment
of American finance, leading to
further slavery for German work
ers, but the present excitement is
among the French reactionaries,
who want to advance their own i'm
perialism, and see Wall Street con-
quering them.
U. S. Hegemony.
The Echo de Paris states:
care we not in the presence of an
ambitious enterprise on the part of
American business men who are
seeking to impose their hegemony?
1t is possible that the project which
is under examination by the COM
mittee may be the logical solution
of the problem of Preparations as
they view it. But in this political
and economic universe the problem
of PREPARATIONS is not the only prob
lem. For us it is important to ex-
anime whether the inconvenience
of such an institution as is proposed
do not exceed the material advan-
tage of finding an issue for Ger
many's. creditors. At all events, the
plan is marked by megalomania
which is perhaps unconscious, but
which nevertheless calls for the
greatest caution"

PRAGUE, (By Mail).-The tex
tile workers strike in North Be-
hemia has spread further today.
Forty-one factories in various dis
tricts of Czechoslovakia are lying
idle. Deputy Comrade Stern and
several workers were arrested by
the Reichenberg police and not re-
leased until energetic protest had
been made.
The agPravation of the fighting
situation may also be seen from the
intensification of the campaign
against the Communist press. The

Karlsbad "Kampfer" have been pro-
hibited for a month. The Sunday

already been stopped.

Militant Strike Paved Way.
A great factor in crystallizing the
movement toward the establishment
of the new union was the recent
brilliant strike carried on by the
hundreds of girl workers against the
Rego Clothiers, Ltd.
This heroic and bitter struggle,
conducted under Communist and Left
wing leadership, was fought not only
by the employers, but was sabotaged
and finally openly betrayed by the
strikebreaking officialdom heading
the old union. The popular Left
wing strike leadership was removed,
secret negotiations with the bosses
were entered into by the union lead
ers and the long drawn out strug-
gle of the workers was betrayed.
First New Union.
Similar anti class collaboration
movements already have large mass
followings in nearly all other unions
in England, but this is the first new,
openly Left wing organization to be
launched. The Left wing movement
in England is being led by the Brit
ish Minority Movement, which is
centralized organization, nation
wide in scope.
In the preamble of the new United
Clothing Workers Union is the dec
laration of belief "that the inter-
ests of the clothing workers are
fundamentally antagonistic to those
of the employers"

which dates back to 1892, when

victory. the first of the four they
have to their credit in Michigan
games. The wolverines have
come out on top IL times and
the two teams have played one
tie game-in 1908. The Maize
and Blue also have a wide mar
gin in points scored. with q total
of 272 to $50 for their opponents.
1t was that tie game OF 1903

for a great part of the glamour
surrounding the old rivalry, for
it was after this battle that Os-

back the following year with a

completely by a $50 victory in
1921. Not until the last game
played, in 1927, did the Gophers
conduct the jug on q trip to
Minneapolis. They won this game
by 1877 score. The only. other
