The Trade Union Unity League cannot ig-
more the company sports movement if it is to
carry out its revolutionary role of organizing
the workers in the basic industries 1t is pre-
cisey in these industries that the company
sports movement is the strongest The Trade
Union Unity League must give the Labor
Sports Union close cooperation in the strug-
gle against company sports and the building
of workers factory sports clubs Sport clubs
in the factories can be used as a basis for shop
committees and trade unions
Trade Union Unity League members and
Party nuclei and all revolutionary workers
should carry on persistent propaganda in the
factories, exposing the role of the company
sports clubs and agtating and organizing
workers factory clubs.
Only by united effort of all workers in
the factories, members of militant working
class organizations under the leadership of our
Party will we be able to smash the company
sports movement and its influence upon the
workers and organize the workers into revo-
lutionary unions and sport clubs.

Some Serious Shortcomings
By JACK Killing.

MOST of our Party comrades do not under
"A stand the Importance of promptness. The
section convention of our Party was called for
six o'clock. Only about ten comrades showed
up at that time The convention opened up at
8 o'clock and lasted until 2:30 a. m. AS
result toward the closing of the meeting the
meeting was demoralized and the comrades
were tired. The question of the Youth League
was left in the background. Although the dis
trct representative and the section organizer,
when reporting, stressed the Importance of
the League at the very beginning of the con-
vention, the entire question of the League was
left in the background. For example, when
the section organizer proposed the order of
business nothing was said about a League re-
port. The League comrades had to remind
the comrades that League report must also
be given.
When the various committees were proposed
no League members were suggested to be
placed on any of the committees. The League
had to fight so that League comrade should
be placed on each of the committees. When
the League delegation proposed that certain
League member be placed on a certain COM
mittee the comrades Immediately raised the
questions: 'Instead of whom do you propose
the comrade?" No additional nominees were
permitted This is certainly not Communistic
However, the delegates present Immediately
pointed out that this was the wrong procedure
and must be changed.
The relationship of the League and the
party Nust be changed in that particular Sec
ton. The new section executive committee of
me Rarity will have to appoint a special and
leading comrade of the section to devote most
of his activity in helping develop and build
the League in the section. The question of
the Pioneers was entirely left out, and it was
left Tor the League delegation to bring it be-
fore the convention. However, despite the
shortcomings, the convention has marched for
ward. The Party will have to pay more and
much more attention in the developing of the
League.

As a result of the economic crisis in which
IA American capitalism finds itself at present
it is intensfying its preparations for a joint
imperialist attack against the Soviet Union
and for armed struggle against its fore
most enemy-British imperialism. These prep
arations assume two forms. In the world po-
itical arena, American capitalism is strug-
Cling for the balance of power through dis
armament conferences, the Kellogg pact, naval
reduction conferences, theological preparation
for attack against the Soviet Union through
the religious persecution" campaign, Whalen
forgeries, etc. Internal preparations take the
form of greater attacks against the interests
of the working class through naturalization,
mass unemployment, attacks against militant
working class organizations, militarization of
the youth, placing of industries in readiness
for war production and spreading of pacifist
illusions among the people.
In these preparations the American bour-
geoisie gives its greatest attention, and is
utilizing every means, to win the young work
to its side and prepare them for war. Ore
of the most important means which the bour-
geoisie use in this work is sports. The CAPT
tast class knows quite we'll the fact (Which
our Party and League has yet failed to grasp,
that in order to win over and prepare new re-
cruits for its army at the 'front.' and to safe
guard its rear against the internal enemy
it must carry on the major share of its
preparations among the workers in the indus
tries.
AS result we find today that the bour.
geoise have entered their best technical sports
forces into the factories for the organization
of company sports. Millions of dollars are
spent each year by the industrial concerns of
the country in this work Factory stadiums,
gyms and athletic fields are being built on ali
ever greater scale. Even special schools have
been set up by the bosses for the training Nt
company sports directors The Y. NJ G.
the largest organization in this field trains
hundreds Of these "sthlft va,
factories each year.
Today the company sports movement can
count millions of young and adult workers in
its ranks. Firms like the General Motors,
Westinghouse, Western Electric, Pennsylvania
Railroad System, not only have sports clubs
involving those that are active in sports, but
all of the workers employed by them. The
Howthorpe Athletic Club of the Western Elec-
trio Co. of Chicago has a membership of
10000, inclusive of all the workers and the
office staff. There is not mine or a factory
of any size in the country today that does not
promote sports for its employees.
In many instances athletic games provided
by the company teams form the main form of
social activity in the small company towns
and villages. In such cases sports serve as
the best means for the bosses to promote and
develop class collaboration among the work
ers. Their slogan Isl "All equal on the
athletic field" and ''there is no class division
in sports"
What has our movement done to this day
to struggle against this company sports move
ment? Practically nothing.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, September Ii
The sulphuric smell in coal gas has
been converted into a medicinal soap
at Ohio State University Results Of
one years experiments with this soap
were reported to the medical section
of the American Chemical Society today
by DR.. Emery r. Hayhurst, professor
of hygiene.
He said the soap is made from a
new kind of sulphur which was discov-
cred a few years ago by the Koppers
Research Co. while removing sulphur
and other impurities from coal gas.
This sulphur resembles moderately
moist clay. 1t differs from other sui
phurs in being composed of finer par
ticles. all of them under six-ten-thou-
sandths of an inch in diameter.
Twenty-Five per cent of sulphur was
mixed with CASTLE soap and perfumed.
At first 1t was tried upon members of
his own family and those Of q few
other scientists.
No harmful effects appearing, 1t was
then tried upon a wide variety of per-
sons, from a baby camp to machinists
and on various compilations. Prof.
Hayhurst said 1t was found free of dam
aging effects to scalp, hair or nails. and
did not sensitize the skin, except for
causing slight chapping in few in
stances.
Its effects were remarkable" he re-
ported, lin practically all cases en-
countered of simpler chronic skin dis
eases like eczema, acne and facial
blemishes."
Three manufacturers of plated ma
terials informed Prof. Hayhurst that the
soap appeared to cure platers' rash, and
one concern reported that after a siege
of machinists' boils, lasting about five
years, the soap eradicated them within
three months.
Progress toward discovering in pollens
the mysterious substances which cause
hay fever was reported by Marjorie B.
Moore and Edmond E. Moore of the
Swan-Myers Co. of Indianapolis.
They have separated from extracts of
ragweed and other pollens substances
which they said appeared to contain
the essence of the irritant. These sub
stances are composed mostly of nitrogen
and solids.
The Moores plan to subdivide the
guilty substances still further in hopes
of completely isolating the irritant
Their separations are made by picking
out of droplets of the pollen extracts
thin films that are only about a
millionth of an inch thick. This is done
by absorption, the property some ele-
ments have of attaching to their sur
faces a layer of different substance
only a few molecules in thickness.

Syracuse, N. Y, Sept. 30.-E-
Having adopted q platform demand
ing repeal Of the eighteenth amend
ment and the Volstead act. the
democratic state convention today
set about renominating Governor
Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Opposing him at the November
election will be Charles H. Tuttle,
Republican nominee, who also de-
clared for repeal Of the prohibition
law, and DR.. Robert Paris Carroll,
Syracuse university professor, nouai-
mated by q combination Of dry organ
izations.
The Democratic prohibition plank
says:
1.-THE democracy of New York state
has consistently opposed national
prohibition as un-American. produc-
tive Of widespread disrespect for law
and q prolific source OF corruption,
hypocrisy, crime and disorder. The
Republican party. which Is respon-
sible for these d%eplorable conditions,
now attempts at this late date to de-
ceive the people by q hypocritical
disclaimer Of its former principles"
The plank advocates restoration to
the states Of the right to control the
manufacture and transportation OF
liquor within their boundaries and
pledges upon repeal Of the eighteenth
amendment the adoption Of such
regulatory measures in the state Of
New York as will promote temper
ance, Danish the saloon and recognize
the principle Of home rule in all To-
calitieS.
In another plank the Democrats
condemn the Hoover administration
