The only factor favorable to the
four Soviet fliers was the almost
constant daylight, which enabled
them to proceed on a direct line to
their first landing point on Ameri-

The great chain of islands was
sighted after five hours of flying.
According to the brief wireless dis

FRANCE And u. S.
pAPGAIN ON SUBS

Secretary of State Stimson is en-
~agcd in continuous conferences
with the ambassadors of Italy,
France and Japan, officials at the
state department building have
made known to the capitalist press.
Although nothing on the exact
stage of negotiations is permitted
for publication, it is known that it
has been virtually decided that Eng
land shall issue the invitations and
that the five power conference shall
convene early next year, probably
in London.
Japanese Demands.
The officials do not deny that a
regular dog fight at the conference
seems to be certain. Japan has pub
licly stated that it requires a 10-10-7
ratio in cruisers although at the
Washington conference Japan ac-
cepted the smaller figure in a 5-5-3
ratio. Stimson, when these state
ments by japanese ministers in the
Japanese press were called to his
attention, pretended surprise.
The United States and England,
while far from an agreement be-
tween themselves, go along with
each other, at least just now, on the
question of submarines. Each has
much commerce, each woud suffer
severely from submarine blockade,
and each thinks she could gain con-
troll of the s-rface of the seas, when
war actually breaks out. Therefore,
at present, and until France and
Italy or some other submarine"
exponent is drawn into close alliance
with either Engla- or U. s., both
these latter empires are in favor of
abolishing subs.

ZIONIST TOOLS
FOUND GUILTY
Convicted of Aiding
Imperialism

Four thousand Jewish workers
crowded New Star Casino to capa-
city, with hundreds more clamoring
to enter the hall, in a remarkable
demonstration yesterday against the
betrayal of the cause of the work
ing class by the Jewish Daily For
ward and other Jewish newspapers
which support imperialism and its
instrument, Zionism, in Palestine.
The affair, arranged by the jew
ish Bureau Of the Communist
Party, took the form of trial, by
the workers, of the mercenary jour
nalists who try to poison the work
ing class with capitalist class prop
aganda in general and try to aid
in the imperialist war to subjugate
the Arabian people in Palestine.
The case was prosecuted" on be-
half of the working class by NJ. ].
Olgin and M. Epstein, of the Jew

Freiheit, the judge being Paul Yu-
dich, also of the Freiheit. Stirring
scenes were enacted when the jury
of twelve workers was chosen from
among the audience, and when wit
ness after witness recited the evil
dence at betrayals and mercenary
lying on the part of the writers and
editors of the Forward, the Day
and the Morning Journal. Some of
the witnesses were workers who had
at one time been inveigled into the
Jewish Legion in the service of
British imperialism in Palestine.
The affair decisively demonstrat-
ed the genuine attitude of the class
conscious Jewish workers against
the corruption of reactionary ma
tionalism and social-fascism, show
ing that the correction of the earlier
errors of the Freheit, which IT first
fell into the trap of reactionary ma
tionalism, will get the support OF
the Jewish proletarians of New
York.

1927 by the Bethlehem Shipbuild-

known to at least one other big i'm

well-informed circles here. 1t is
generally known in Washington that

discovered the fact that another
power was about to expose the ac-

armor plate manufacturers at inter
national conferences and informed
Washington. In order to avoid an
