Attitudes Awaited

Washington, Oct 9.-APl-Indica- tions of the attitude Japan, France and Italy will take toward the Brit ish invitation to a new five-pOwcr naval limitation conference were eagerly awaited in Washington to- day as details of the document be- came generally known.
 Acceptance by the United States, inevitable in view of President Hoovers approval of the substance of the text during his Rapidan con- ference with Prime Minister Mac Donald, is expected before the Brit ish statesman concludes his history making trip to America next Tues- day.
 AS far as these two governments are concerned, the document pro- vided formal confirmation of the success of the Anglo American naval equality negotiations undertaken when Ambassador Dawes went to London about six months ago and brought to high climax of under standing by MT. MacDcnald's visit to President Hoover.
 Situation Uncertain
 Unreserved acceptance by the other governments concerned, how ever was regarded as less certain. While they have been kept informed of the progress of the preliminary negotiations, the wide scope of the Anglo American accord contains proposals which undoubtedly will be 1886, of the ten-year holiday in Tokyo, Paris and Rome. The pro- posed addition of five years. until 1936. of the ten-years holiday in capital ship construction now in ef- feet under the Washington naval limitation treaty, Is already arous- ing considerable discussion among the Japanese.
 It has not been disclosed whether they will take anywhere near such interest in the implications of the Anglo agreement to reach parity in the strength of cruisers, submarines and destroyers as well as capital ships and aircraft carriers by 1936, the year contemplated for an- other conference.
 The submarine question:, on which the United States and Great Britain found agreement relatively easy, is the point that contains a maximum Of interest to France and Italy. The United States and Great Britain are ready to abandon submarines alto- gether, but the other governments, particularly that of France. have al- ways insisted heretofore that the un- dersea craft were essential to their defense.
 Submarines Involved

1nsistence by France or either of the other two governments upon a right to construct submarines with out limit is viewed in some quarters as an eventuality which could very readily threaten the difficult accord reached by the United States and Great Britain on cruiser strength.

 MT. SUTHERLAND. Yes.
 MT. PERKINS. Why is that| necessary? This is a warning. Let me suggest that the best way to warn these people up| there is not to vote the money.

 MT. LANKFORD. MT. Speaker, I understood I was to be yielded 10 minutes by the gentleman from Iowa. If permitted, I yield five minutes to the gentleman from Mississippi (Mr. Lowery).

absolutely right in what he has just said.
 Mr. PERKINS. I am almost persuaded to vote for anything for which the gentleman is in favor, but would not the better way to discourage such practic- , es be by defeating this bill.
 MT. SUTHERLAND. No; I do not think so. I think the local legislature should be given a chance to redeem itself without depriVing the secretary of the 5000 he has honestly earned.
 MT. DOWELL. AS a matter of fact, this man was employed un- Ger the provisions of the Legisla- tlire 0f'AlaSka, and he performed the services, and, except for the fact that it was learned later that he was not legally entitled he would have been paid. Yet it is a fact that he earned the money and should receive it.
 MT. SCHAFER. Did he re- ceiVe his pay from the Federal Government covering the same period of time for which he is asking pay under the provisions of this bill?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Yes. He received $3,600 8 year from the Federal Government. Former ly he received more than that, but when the Secretary of the Interior learned that he re- ceiVed $2,000 a year from the Territory his Federal salary was cut to $3,6OO.
 MT. SCHAFER. Was all his time occupied in the working hours of the Federal Govern ment?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. During the same day, possibly at differ ent hours, these duties were per formed.
 MT. SCHAFER. Is it not fact that if we pass this bill we will send notice out to the Federal officials in Alaska that they shall continue in the f1lt1re as in the

MT. SCHAFER. Could not that be done by employing peo- pie to do this work who are not employed by the Federal Gov ernment?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Certain ly; but, of course, the Federal officials prefer to take the mon ey and do the work.
 MT. SCHAFER. Is the gentle man in favor of this bill?
 MT. SUTHERLAND. Yes; I am in favor of it.
 MT. SCHAFER. I will say the gentleman has always been ad- VOcating before this Congress that more power should be giv- en to the Territorial government in Alaska, but what if Congress should give more power, the facts the gentleman has brought out seem to indicate they are disposed to give over to Feder- al officials the powers they have already received from Congress.

Glad to Join National
Textile Workers

THOMASTON, Ca, Nov 1S. -
Charles Young, a mill worker of this
town, was discharged last week for
distributing National Textile Work
ers' Union leaflets in the mill vii
lage. Thomaston was supposed to
have been organized by the United
Textile Workers Union, but all that
organization did was to collect dol
lar bills from the workers, sell out
their strike, and leave them. The
mill workers here are thoroughly
Disguised with the U. T. w. and
anxious to receive the message of
a militant union.
The mills in Thomaston, which
granted the eight-hour day tempo
rarily to the workers because of
mass pressure, have already gone
back, first to the ten-hour shift, and
now to the twelve-hour day.
On Monday the Martha mill, en-
ploying 5000 workers, threw 1900
meen, women and children out of
work by cutting out the night shift
and putting the day shift on IL
hour schedule, with the wage cut
tang, speed-up "Bideau system"
The N. T. W. U. is gathering head
way in Thomaston.

Clinchfield workers, asking them to
be ready to assist the Marion Manu-
featuring Co. strikers was ruled out
out of evidence by the Judge.
Cowper carefully drew a distinc-
ton between rebellion" and "insur-
rection." Instruction" he said, was
the actual resistance to some part
of the states power. For this the
strikers are on trial. Hoffman, who
did not attend the picket line at
which the killing took place, nor
participated in the resistance the
strikers made to wholesale evictions,
which is the specific charge against
them, can be charged only with
rebellion" which is general advo-
cacy of resistance to state power
or with nothing.
No Rebellion"
Frankly, you are not contending
that you have shown any evidence
as to rebellion?" Cowper asked the
prosecutor, Pless.
"No, but l would as to insurrec-
tion," the prosecutor replied
The evidence of Deputy Sheriff
Hendley and the other witnesses
thus FAR called have tended to show
that Hoffman was present only once
on the five occasions when the law
was alleged to have been violated,
and on that occasion he was in the
company of N. w. Townsend, spe-
cial representative of the Governor.
Frank Watson, chief of council for
the mill bosses, engaged in assisting
the prosecution of the strikers and
defense of the murderous deputies,
refused yesterday to say by whom
he was paid. eve do not conceive
it to be the province of anybody to
ask us by whom we are employed"
replied Watson for himself and his
staff, when queried by the judge. At
the last trial, however, Watson and
his associates admitted they were
hired by the Marion and Clinchfield
mills.

CHI. BUILDING
BOSSES START
WAGE CUT drive
Bosses Find Takers
Actions Great Help

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE build
ing trades bosses in Chicago and
vicinity have opened their long plan
ned campaign for a general orgy
of wage cutting in all the building
Crafts, and lined up the capitalist
press and the bosses own trade
journals for the drive on building
workers and conditions.
The let-down in building construc-
ton, causing widespread unemploy-
ment turnout the country in the
building trades, has given the boss
associations their Zine" in spread
ing propaganda thru the press for
general wage cuts, which the build
ing bosses indicate they will go thru
with despite the contracts which the
building trades labor misleaders
have entered into with the bosses.
The contractors are blaming "high
wages" for the present slump in
building, thus making use of the
latter situation for an attack on
workers conditions. The fact that
overbuilding has brought on a slump
is suppressed by the bosses.
The building bosses, now ready to
make big wage reductions, find
themselves amply rewarded for
treating the labor takers as pals in
the past, for the workers in one
trade wishing to strike against a
wage cut, will find the workers in
other crafts being prevented by the
takers from striking in sympathy
by the fact that their agreements
expire at different dates.
1t is indicated that the wage cuts
for the various crafts will not be
made at one time, but at varying
dates, to prevent general building
trades strike, which the rank and
file is certain to demand despite the
officialdom.

four months ago for the Daily
Worker Ball Thanksgiving evening,
Thursday, Nov. %, was suddenly
closed to the militant workers last
Saturday and its use denied to the

Philip Frank, speaking for the

with the question of colliery locals
under Lewis leadership which means
dividing the workers, and under the

ed strength to the miners.
Frank then spoke on the situation
in the anthracite, quoting various
coal operators statements about Gin
creasing production in the anthracite
fields" "that the miners must do
their share to increase production"
that no general wage cut is contem-
plated in $780," etc. These all in
dictate a fiercer exploitation of the
miners.

sharply retorted. This duel is very
unfortunate and perhaps it would
be well to stop at once" The dis
cussion THE forum was then end
ed, and the leaders went to the home
of Thomas Cor a private discussion.
Before the lecture by Hillquit,
Thomas had declared:

C. intellectuals that we should in
vite for a conference to talk over
this situation rather than demand
that they accept our party stand
and program. | believe that this
is a question of psychological ap-
nroach."
hi his lecture, Hillquit stated that
the socialist party of today is very
different from what it was before
the war, and referred to the sup
port Thomas received from bour-
geois elements as evidence that
many have overcome their preju-
dice against the word socialism ="
Hillquit referred to the support of
the capitalist press for Thomas in
the municipal election and the ex-
tensive publicity it is now giving
to the socialist party as indicating
"-.n era of better times for social
ISM"
Hillquit. though millionaire cor
poration lawyer, has had years of
experience in betraying the labor
movement, while Thomas, minister
ard Princeton graduate, favors a
policy which would base the social
list party composition almost entirely
upon the intellectuals and petty
Bourgeois elements. Hillquit fears
hat without "labor" basis the USE
fulnsss of the socialist party to
capitalism would be ended, and that
complete abandonment of socialist
md 'labor" would not help but
hinder the present social-fascist de-
velopmcnt of tire socialist party.
