sion, a number of delegates oues-
toned the advisability of immediate
action, but the time the discussion
was closed the proposal to send
fraternal delegates and to take up
the question of outright utilization
at the next convention had gained al
most complete unanimiyt The vote
being-135 to 6.
Speakers on this question pointed
out the absolute necessity of taking
the lead in this important step, so
that other militant unions, built
and in the process of being built,
could follow the lead of the needle
trades workers. 1t was shown that
with the immediate and growing
danger of a world capitalist war, it
was necessary for all revolutionary
and class conscious workers to join
hands with their comrades all over
the world to fight the capitalist
class and their agents-the Amster-
dam Trade Union International,
which is aiding the imperialist plans
for a new world slaughter.
Other decisions of the convention
were on the financial machinery of
the union, which is to be checked

BOLIVIA DELAYS
SIGNING PAPERS
Archaic NJ a chin cry
Holds Up Minister

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. q
The technical arrangements where
by U. S. imperialism is running its
war against Paraguay, are notably
complicated. This was illustrated
here by the failure so far of the
Bolivian minister, Diez de Medina,
to receive instructions on signing
the protocol cooked up by the Mon
roe Doctrine Cancellation confer
ence" here.
Cumbersome Machinery.
The control of what the Bolivian
government does is air-tight. But
when something is proposed in
Washington, it must go to Bolivia,
where the government must take it
up with the representatives. of the
Dillon-Read banking corporation
which owns the Bolivian govern
ment. These must, apparently
check up with the New York office
to see that no mistake Is being
made, and the time used up in
cabling holds up final action. 1t is
quite annoying.
The protocol was expected to be
signed last night. Paraguayan rep
resentatives were ready. But de
Medina wouldn't sign without ex-
press authorization from Bolivia.
Members of the committee argued
with him for an hour that general
expressions of the Bolivian govern
ment already received were suffi-
cient, but to no avail.
More Efficiency Needed.
The matter was, of course, one
requiring political acumen, since the
protocol proposed that Argentina,
Brazil and Uruguay, as we'll as the
U. S. and it's Cuban puppet, be on
the special Cancellation body. Ma
turally, the bankers representatives
in Bolivia wished to be quite sure
that the complexion of the commits
sion was friendly to the New York
bankers before allowing the Bolivian
government to accept.
, Observers remark, however, that
the excessively cumbersome machin-
cry of bossing Bolivia is not in ac-
cord with real American efficiency.
and that the Bolivians would speed
up things better if they took for
granted that anything that passes

Letter in Handwriting.
/, This letter was read before the
tribunal of Rome during the trial
of LA Voce Republican," organ
of the republican party of Italy,
which had publicly accused Balbo
of having engineered the murder
of Don Minzoni. Balbo could not
deny the authorship of the letter
because it was presented in his own
handwriting, and 'La Voce Repub-
blicana" was acquitted. The pow
erful public opinion which was
voiced at that time against fascism
and especially against Balbo, espe-
cially after the assassination of
Matteotti, compelled Mussolini to
remove Balbo as generalissimo of
militia, but Balbo was soon ap-
pointed secretary of aviation. Then
he committed other crimes.

The New York District of the

night issued an appeal to all its
members and all other class-con-
scious workers to attend en- masse
the protest meeting against the
visit to this country of one of the
chiefs of Mussolini's murder ma
chine, Italo Balbo.
The appeal, signed by Rose
Baron, secretary, states in part:
"Italo Balbo is now on a tour
throughout the country, every
where making propaganda for fas-
cism, everywhere melting to per-
secution of anti-fascist workers.
And everywhere the miserable tools
of the bosses in the city govern
ments have welcomed him with
great acclaim. Today, this mon
ster in human flesh is coming to
New York. Members of the In
ternational Labor Defense and all
other class-conscious workers, show
your hatred for the bloody fascist
rule and its agent and symbol,
Italo Balbo, by joining in the meet
ing at Irving Plaza and raising a
mighty protest against the visit OF
this hangman to this country"

MISSOURI MAN
WANTS A ROAD

The importance and the possibilities
of the summer tourist business are
forcibly set forth in a letter received
this week by c. M. Babcock, commits
sioner of highways, from a Missouri
man who has spent twenty summers
in Minnesota and who is one of
group now spending more than $25s,-
600 for summer hotel and golf course
in north central Minnesota The Mis-
souri, man is trying to get road from
the trunk highway to the new hotel
After telling of the need of the road
and his unsuccessful efforts to get it
he says:
1.-The excuse for directing your at
tention to as small piece of road as
this lies simply in the importance to
Minnesota of the success of such de-
velopmentS, Northern Minnesota with
the change in recent years of the
character of the tourists, has an OPP
portunity now to COLOMBO her lake
shores with summer residents-a better
opportunity than she ever had to col
onize the same territory with farmers
And such summer residents do much
toward helping the market of the
farmers Northern Minnesota is to
a very large extent dependent on. the
summer tourist trade To increase
and develop and permanize it she must
go into competition with Wisconsin
and Michigan And what she particu-
larry needs to successfully do that is
numbers of such high class develop
ments as this one. The average sum-
mer resident pays in taxes about the
equivalent of those of an eight or one
hundred and sixty acre improved farm.
More than half of his taxes go to
schools, from which of course he asks
nothing; 1 suppose half the remain
der goes towards administration, in
which he has no voice He probably
spends from ten to forty times the
amount of taxes for srstenance and
improvements. He has become almost
the most impor ant factor in the pros
perity of the lake region. He should
be welcomed like an unexpected in
heritance, and given the one thing he
asks fora road to his place
1.-The interest I take in the lake re-
gion development is sincere, fostered
by nearly twenty pleasant summers
spent up there. Its future as the sum-
mer playground Of the middle west
seems SO certain to me-not Iessened
by any comparisons I have made in
wisconsin and Michigan, at present so
far in the lead in prestige I do feel
that the State is not doing it's part
suppose that someone would develop
or discover a new agricultural crop
that would meaN fifty or seventy five
million dollars year to the state,
what would be spent to foster and in
crease it?"

BASS FRY AVAILABLE
ACCORDING TO CONGRESSMAN.

Collection of bass fry for stocking
Minnesota streams and lakes has been
started according to information re-
ceived by Congressman william A.
Pittenger from the Bureau of Fisher
les. It is believed that the Bureau
will be able to fill all of the orders
now on hand for bass fry from Mime
sofa applicants.
Because of flood conditions along
the Mississippi River last year only a
small percent of the orders could be
filled according to Congressman Pit
tenger. This year conditions have
been found to be very favorable and
it is hoped that the Bureau viii not
only be able to fill standing orders but
also requests received lately.
Congressman Pittenger also reported
that he has received information that
the collection of brook trout eggs viii
be started in November by the Duluth
Hatchery. These eggs viii be Matched
in the hatchery and viii be ready for
distribution about June 1880. It is
estimated that 100000 frys will be
planted in Minnesota streams and
waters next year.
Perch and pike frys viii also be
planted The number viii depend on
the number of applications received
for these frys Congressman Pittenger
urged all who desire fry for their
streams to communicate with his Office
at the earliest possible date so that
these orders can be placed on file.
