DUBREUIL CAPTAIN---LIARD
 OUSTED---N POLICE SHAKE-UP
New Council Springs Surprise at Meeting Monday Eve
 ing.-All Present
No Changes in Head. of Other City
 Departments

Alphonse Dubreuil was elected cap- tain. Alpnerie Sponeey was elected sergeant, and Sergeant George Liard, eleven years on the force, was busted, in a complete shake-up of the police department by the incoming common council, Monday evening. The person. nel of heads of other departments re- mains the same.
 Although some of the applications for the office formerly held by the late William J. Jarvis were with drawn before the meeting, five eandi- dates remained. Those whose applica- tions were read previous to the ball. loting were Dona Thibeault, John J. McGarry, Harry Wallen. John Fl. Bulger, former captain of police, and Alphonse Dubreuil, for the past three years a special policeman.
 Only one ballot, it is understood, was taken. Three nominations were made-McGarry, Dubreuil and Wal len. Dubreuil received five votes and MeGarry four. Dubreuil was declared elected.
 Sponeey Sergeant
 The second ballot was for sergeant lI HNliAts ftAt Nttt thi wv Nettttf- dates for this office. Patrolman AL pherie Sponeey and Patrolman Benonf Durand Sponcey received five votes, and was declared elected, and Dur and received four votes
 There were many who expected that Sergeant Lizard would be named as captain. Those in elose touch with the situation, however, realized that he had no chance, and that even his position on the force was not at all secure. The fact that he put in no ap- plicalion leads to the assumption that i he realized that such action would be futile. 1t was understood in small circle that Sergeant Liard had incur
 red disfavor in some quarters and
 that he was slated for retirement. This was not generally known. While
 his failure Of reelection Co the office
 he has held was a surprise, his failure of election as member cf the force after eleven years service, was an ! even greater surprise, to mosi 7 citizens.
 1 Elect Patrolmen There was only one contest in the election of patrolmen. Patrolmar Joseph Page and Patrolman Benoni Durand were unanimously reelected For the third man four names were submitted-R Robert Allard Harry Wallen. Fred McCulloeh and Edward Benoit. On the first ballot Wallen re. z eeived 4 Allard 2. Benoit, 2, and Nc. , Culloch l. A second ballot was taken and Wallen received 5 votes, and was declared elected, Benoit 3 and AlIard 1.

Turning the light of Truth on fals and misleading statements in recent cigarette advertising

AS result of the action of the Fed eral Trade Commission he was ordered to stop his practice of us- ing in his advertising false testi- nOnials of nOn-smokers to the ef- feet that they kept slender by smok- ing his brand of cigarettes, and was further ordered to stop using other fake testimonials and spacious ar gument that all can keep slender by using his brand of cigaretts. He then began to use again the form of statement quoted above or var iations of ii.
 IF ANY MANUF A CTURER s chooses to say that the tobaccos Ale uses contain harmful irri- tants, corrosive acrids, that are in- jurious to the throat" and then to claim that these same are removed by the heat treating process, that is his own affair. But when he tries to create tine impression that it is the general practice to use in cig- arettes such rank tobaccos as he describes, we object to the attempt ed reflection on the industry.
 We never have used in our blend those rank tobaccOs which can be properly described as containing harmful irritants, corrosive ac- rids," nor do we believe that they are used by some of the other manufacturers.
 If that manufacturer wishes to ad- vertise heat treatment, calling it toastiig or what-not, that is his right. But when, in so doing he tries to create the impression that he is the only maker of cigarettes who treats tobaccos with heat, the truth again needs to be told.
 The publication of fake testimonial is no greater perversion of the truth than to imply that the heat
Seward daily gateway., 1930-04-04

treatment of tobaccos is an exclu- i've proces with any single man facturer.
 TIT HE FACT is that the use of B heat treatment in the manu-
 facture of tobacco is about the the most commonplace and uniyer sally practiced method in the indus try 1t has long been standard prac- tice.
 We use the heat treatment in its most modern and scientific applica- ions, both in the preparation and in the manufacture of these mild, fragrant, ripe tobaccos that carry their natural goodness into CAMELS.
 The first CAMEL Cigarette we ever made was manufactured un- der the feat-treating process. Every one of the billions of CAAIELS pro- duced since has been manufactured under heat treatment We rely up- on heat to the limits of its possi- bilities to make our good tobaccos better. 1t cannot make inferior to- baccos good.
 VAT HETHER OR NOT a manu- w facturer, to have something
 to talk to the public about, attaches 8 contrivance to his heat treating machine to catch, condense and bottle the vapors that come from them can have no more ef- feet toward improving the tobacco than your catching and bOttling the vapors that come from your teapot would have toward improving the tea in the pot.
 Our own brand, CAMEL, continues to grow, but, we are, nevertheless, unwilling to let these far reaching false statements or reflections re- garding the cigarette industry go uncorrected.
Seward daily gateway., 1930-04-04

HAT ANOTHER MANU- ANf FACTURER of cigarettes w chooses to say about his product is not of course our affair. Even when he sees fit to misrepresent his own product and leave false impressions concern ing it, that still is his business not ours.
 But-when, in his advertising, he goes beyond his own product and makes false statements or leaves misleading impressions about other cigarettes-th then it is time the truth be told.
 Some time ago manufacturer of cigarettes used the following statements in his advertising:
 ''The extra secret heating process removes from () harmful irritants, corrosive acrids, which are present in the cigarettes manufactured in the old-fasi, toned way. and which cause throat irritation and coughing" No matter how much or how little you pay for cigarettes you have a choice of only two general classes and not more than two. In one class you have the billions of cigaretts manufactured in the old-fashioned way and in the other you have -), the toasted cigarette, a product of modern science, a cigarette from which harmful irritants have been removed by that extra se- cret process described by the phrase It's toasted,."
 TATHEN THESE STATE w NENTs were first made, we " assumed that they were a casual phase of that manufacturers advertising and did not represent deliberate aud calculated policy After making few such state ments, he abandoned this particu- lar form of advertising. However, other statements used in his adyer- Using came to the attention 1T inc Federal Trade Commission an a question of their trutFfulness.

those workers already in the T.UU.L. take
the task seriously. If they realize the colec-
tive organizational value of Labor Unity, its
strength in enlightening those workers under
the influence of the capitalist and reformist
press, they will lose time in building up
the circulation of Labor Unity.
If the members of the Communist Party
are sincere in their turn to trade union work
they will themselves read and spread Labor
Unity. This organ, of all the revolutionary
press must be foremost in reaching the
masses.
1t must be sold at street meetings; shop
gate meetings; to fellow workers in the
shop; in the home neighborhood.
For Labor Unity appeals especially to the
unorganized workers, who have not yet come
across the revolutionary labor movement,
who do not know of the Communist Party.
If the minds of the working class are to
be liberated from capitalism, Labor Unity
must be built up, at once, to a powerful
organ reaching hundreds of thousands of
workers.
1t has powerful historical role. 1t cuts
into the darkness of capitalist misinforma-
ton and lies; and concretely teaches the
workers how to organize
The basis of Labor Unity's strength lies
of course in the strength of the T.UU.L.
But 1t must run ahead-reach thousands of
workers not yet in the T.U.U.L. It's advance
need not be parallel with that of the T.U.
U.L.-it must precede-be in the vanguard
scout ahead among the backward masses.
To do this we must have the following:
l. Actively functioning Labor Unity agents.
2. Responsibility of T.U.U.L. affiliations
in selling and reading Labor Unity
8. Organization of shock-troops in all
unions, leagues, and all workers available for
the mass sales of Labor Unity.
d. It must be sold at all mass meetings,
street meetings, shop gate meetings, unit
meetings.
5. 1t must help the foreign born workers
in the T.U.U.L. who cannot express them
selves in English to organize American born
workers into the T.U.UL.
6. 1t must be read by all members of the
Communist Party and all affiliated organ
izations.
If these points are followed up, Labor
Unity will be powerful force against the
Hearsts the Scripps Towards, the A. p.
U. P. and other members of the agitprop
department Of the capitalist system.

the objective conditions for strike action are
most favorable. At the same time our gen
eral agitation and propaganda must not only
suffer from this but must be greatly in
creased.
The third mistake consists in our unpar-
donabe organizational looseness and laxness
As well as one can judge from the field the
national offices of the various unions are
tightening up considerably organzationally
and are establishing more responsible methods
of work. However, it is in the field that this
organzational laxness does US most harm.
The question of dues payment enters here.
We often seem afraid to ask the workers to
pay dues. We organize a small group in
shop or mine and meet with them for weeks
without insisting that they either all pay
dues and become bonafide members of the
union or else drop out. No worker has re-
spect for an organization which functions on
charity basis. He has no feeling of respon-
sibility toward an organization which does not
demand minimum of financial and other sup
port from him.
We fail to maintain any kind of discipline
in our union locals. Meetings are held on diff
ferent days of succeeding weeks The meet
ings do not start on time. No action is taken
against members who consistently fail to at
tend meetings. The meetings often drag out
interminably due to- inefficient organization of
the meeting and the work. No regular min
utes of union meetings are kept in most in
stances No uniform method of bookkeeping
is in effect in most, if not all, of our indus
trial unions and leagues. Our whole organ
ization is loose and inefficient.
Until we change all this and put into eff
feet general tightening Up organzationally
in our work, until the local unions enforce
working class discipline in the ranks of their
members and learn to conduct their meetings
on formal enough basis to insure posi-
bility of efficient functioning, we will be I'M
able to stabilize our unions.
