The London Daily Worker (Com-
munist Party official organ) gives
this account Of it:
"In written answer in the house
of commons the home secretary q.
R. Clynes) has stated that he is
unable to give any sanction to the
proposed international Negro Labor
Congress in London, or to authorize
facilities for the attendance of dele
gates.
while the labor government has
pronounced this ban on the congress,
the militant Negro workers, notably
in South Africa, are fighting hard
to get representative delegations to
the congress.
"The delegates from the western
province to the recent African Ma
tional Congress, at Bloemfontein,
who were arbitrarily disfranchised
by the reactionaries who have
wrangled themselves into control of
that body, have issued statement
calling upon all the African organ
izations to meet as soon as possible
in order to discuss the question of
the International Congress and to
select a delegation directly from
their provinces.
"They conclude: we feel conf
dent that this appeal of ours will
meet with a warm response from
the broad masses.
Further, that here in South At
RIGA we will be able in the near fu-
ture to convene a really represen-
tative All-African Congress that
will raise the militant banner of
struggle against the exploitation of
Boer-British imperialism and for the
absolute social, economic and polit-
ical equality of the native people,

the Native Republic of City and

ternational Trade Union Committee
of Negro Workers and organizer for
the Trade Union Unity League, yes
terday issued the following state
ment:
"The refusal of the Macdonald
Tabor" government of England to
allow the conference to be held in
England shows how the "so-called"
labor government is determined to
keep the millions of Negroe slaves
that are in the British empire dashed
to the British imperialist govern
ment for inhuman exploitation.
Macdonald is also afraid of the
exposures of massacre, robbery and
repression carried on under the "la-
Dor" government. But the Negro
toilers are determined to hold their
world conference. The Negro work
ers of South Africa are already
carrying on mass protest meetings
against the action of the MacDon-
aid government. The revolutionary
British workers are also fighting
for it to be held.
"The Negro workers of America
will plan mass protest meetings
against the action of the govern
ment. We call upon the militant
white workers everywhere to fight
for the holding of our conference.
"The international Conference of
Negro Workers will be held. Full
speed ahead with the preparations.

men.
The British, of course, claim a
victory, but certain details show
the battle was probably indecisive,
1t is admitted that none of the at
tackers were captured by the Bri-
fish. 1t is also admitted that air
planes do little execution on the
armed bodies because every time
they fly low enough for effective
aim with their bombs, they are shot
at by riflemen under cover of the
rough ground. There is continual
sniping at all movements of the
British forces once they are outside
of Peshawar or other fortified
posts.

The special New York Times cor
respondent gives much away when
he tells of the dismay among Bril-
fish officialdom over the fact that
the raiding tribesmen protected the
villages in their route instead of
looting them. The British have
done so much looting in India that
they naturally think of all army
movements as plundering expedi-
lions. They realize, to their con-
sternation, that the Afridi army is
striking at British imperialism, is
directed against the government.

police with clubs and drawn re-
volvers raided the headquarters OF
the Indian National Congress today
and arrested all the leaders found
there. Six, including President
JOSH, were taken. These are mod
crate" leaders, that is, leaders
treacherous to the masses.
Their arrest indicates British hys-
terra, and probably a plan to force
along the negotiations by which the
Gandhi chiefs will find a way to
call off as far as they can, the whole
movement. The only reason they
have not done so already is that
they know rather better than the
British officialdom that the masses
will repudiate them as soon as they
try it. Meanwhile, they welcome
arrest and light sentences as a
means of keeping that support.

COP. MAJORITY
TO Be GIVEN
! WORKOUT
Rep. Garner DeviSes Strategy
To Compel Republicans to
Stick Close for Many Votes

While protesting confidence of
enacting the tariff bill by June Is,
Administration leaders on Capitol
Hill were plainly worried today
over signs of revolt in both House
and Senate.
The usually pliable House, often
whipped into line for Administra-
ton measures, has shown signs of
growing opposition. In the Sen
ate, leaders of the Democratic-In-
surgent coalition said the vote
would be close and the measure
might be rejected.
House Revolt Stirs
The trouble in the House both
cred Administration chieftains.
Although the archaic House rules
give a few leaders tremendous
power, the Administration must
command a majority vote to en-
force its programs. There was
just a hint in the air that the
usual majority might disappear on
the tariff bill vote.
Representative cJack'D Gar
ner, the faSt-thinking Democratic
floor leader, will lead the fight
against the bill. It was reported
Garner planned to force a series
Of record votes on various items in
the bill, by the simple eXpedient
of proposing to issue new instruc-
tlonS to the House confereeS.
Under existing rules, Garner
can make these motions and each
will require a record roll-call. If
Administration leaders fail to
command a majority on any of
these votes, the tariff would be
again returned to conference.
Watson Confident
For some reason, the Repub-
lican chieftains were more
alarmed over the House situation
than over the Senate outlook.
Senator Watson (RO of Indiana,
majority leader in the Senate,
continued to predict passage of
the bill by June Is. This included
passage of the bill by, the Senate
within the next 10 days and by
the, House day or two later.
Democratic leaders asserted
Watson was "whistling to keep
upe,hiS courage"
In the Senate, the tariff report
was. divided into two sections, and
debate already is started on the
second section, with its abandon
ment of the debenture and revival
of the flexible tariff clause. Dem
ocrats predicted the debate would
last all week, since this section
contained eight items in dispute.
Aside, from the flexible and de-
benture provisions, this section
also abandoned the McMaster
amendment, making Tariff Com
mission reports public property,
and the Blease amendment, per-
mitting free entry of cement used
in public construction.

BATTLE To DENY
SEAT To DAVIS
CONSIDERED
Mrs. Mccormick Also Faces
Contest If Senate Decides
to Oppose Big Expenditure
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
International News Service


Large primary campaign ex-
penditures in Pennsylvania and
Illinois will come in for severe
condemnation at the hands of the
Senate committee which is keep
ing a close tab on the totals.
Whether this condemnation will
be followed by action to deny
seats to the winners in the
November elections cannot yet be
foretold. There is undeniably
disposition on the. part of some
members of the Senate to apply
the Truman H. Newberry yard
stick of $4,000 to the winners
of this years contests, and deny
seats to those successful candi-
dates who spent more than that
figure. Opinion, however, has
not yet cryStalized.
$362,268 Spent for Davis
In the Pennsylvania primary,
it is now revealed that some
1862, 1858 was spent on behalf of
the ticket headed by Secretary
of Labor James J. Davis, the sena-
torial nominee, and Francis S.
Brown, who lost the guberna-
torial nomination, with part of
the State yet to be accounted for.
This is almost twice the sum
spent by Newber-y, which the
Senate denounced, and which
ultimately led to Newberry's
resignation. 1t is about half
what William S. Ware spent four
years ago to get the Republican
senatorial nomination in Penn
sylvania, only to be denied his
seat on the ground of excessive
expenditure.
In Illinois, Ruth Hanna Nc
Cormick has admitted spending
1882, 900 of her own funds to OBJ
tain the nomination.
Secretary Davis, who has con-
fidently looked forward to TAX
ing his seat, the nomination be-
ing regarded as equivalent to
election in Pennsylvania, is deeply
pertured over the revelation that
$368,000 was spent in behalf of
the DaviS-BroWn ticket.
Says E-Own Got Most
Within a few hours after the
Pennsylvania treasurerS had re-
ported the figures to the Nye in
veStigating committee, Secretary
Davis hastened to the Capitol to
make a second appearance before
the cynical members and assure
them that further investigation
would disclose that most Of the
money was spent for the Brown
half of the ticket and very lit
tie for me-"
In substantiation, Davis pointed
out that the Melons of Pitts
burgh contributed $4,000 to the
Davis Brown ticket, although sup
porting Joseph r. Grundy for
the Senate. The DaviS-BroWn
treasurer. however, reported that
Notwithstanding this the Mellon
checks went into the general
pot" for the whole ticket.
Secretary Davis even argued
with the committee that the
$368,000 should be divided by
seven, as there were seven can
didateS on the Davis Brown ticket.
Members of the committee only
smiled and said nothing.
New Jersey Is Next
The three-cornered New Jersey
primary, where Dwight w. Nor
row, Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, and
Franklin w. Fort are contesting
for the Republican Senatorial
nomination, is next in line for
investigation. The primary is
two weeks from today. AS soon
as it is concluded, the principals
will be called to Washington for
questioning.
Field agents of the committee
already are making quiet surveys
in Jersey.

many look harmless to some eyes when the nations standing army, the Reichswehr, held it's fall ma neuvers near here.
 From the German point of view the sham battle waged on what in 1886 was the scene of conflict between Prussian and Bavarian troops was only a shadoWy reminder of the spectacular maneuvers ot pre-war days. Then regiments Of infantry in mass attacks, brilliant cavalry charges, with a splendor Of uniforms and equipment; field bat teries galloping into action; smell of powder and flutter of flags added spice and zest to the scene.
 Such picturesqueness went out of date with the World War. The modern army fights so far as pos sible under a cloak of invisibility. Massed infantry charges are as ob- solete as bows and arrows; artil- lery disguises itself as foliage; cav- airy rarely gets chance to enter the picture. In an airplane era one must consider that the sky is full of enemy eyes.
 In modern defense and attack machinery dominates. Yet in these, the most ambitious Reichswehr ma nauvers since the war, not a genu- inc tank rumbled into the fray; the import or manufacture of tanks by Germany being forbidden by the treaty of Versailles. Since modern maneuvers without tanks would be farce, dummy tanks mounted on automobiles or on bicycle wheels were used to simulate the missing crawlers.
 The number and caliber of guns Germany may possess also being strictly limited by the treaty, wood- en cannon had to pay big roles amid the artillery. And since mili- tary planes are also forbidden Ger

many by the treaty, the air force in these maneuvers simply had to be an imaginary one.
 Nevertheless there were runors here and uneasy comments abroad, some observers in countries border- ing Germany being inclined to see a renaissance of the Reich's mill tary power under way, or to inter pret the maneuvers as a yelled threat.
 An impartial observer watching the dummy tanks bouncing into battle on bicycle wheels, their paste board "armor" all aquiver, might smile at suggestions of military menace" But most Germans fail to see the funny side of the criti- cisms; they only know they are maintaining a defensive force under great handicaps.
 General Wilhelm Groener, min ister of defense in an address at IIlc Ol OliS AAc'-A~N' fS' took occasion to contradict runners that the Reichstag had a sinister foreign policy of it's own. He point ed sadly to the dummy tanks, the wooden cannon and the non-eXis- tent air squadron and cited two re- cent French maneuvers "in each of which 5O,O0O men took part, with fully equipped tank battalions, air squadrons and heavy artillery"
 Some Germans, of course, view nbilosophically all indications of foreign nervousness over the men ace" of the Reichswehr, regarding them as tributes to the German capacity for achieving technical miracles against odds. They sus- pect that if Germany were to abol- ish her army tomorrow the ner-
