Betzmer; Lieut.. Commander J. N. Heiner Engineer Officer, Lieut.. T. Y. Await, Assistant Engin CT Officer and Lieut.. c. E. Bingman, Sur geon. In addition the Northland brought along five passengers who joined the ship at Seattle: Messrs H nry B Collins, Jr., Assistant curator ofthe Division of Ethnology U. S. Museum, Washington, D. C., who is making his fourth annual visit to this vicinity, and his as sistant. James fFord, both of whom will spend the summer on St. Lawrence Island, investigating an cient native village sites; that we'll known old-timer Jim Allen of Wainwright and his daughter Kate who has just completed d course in nursing at the Alta Bats Hos pital of Berkeley, Calf, and has been appointed Government nur- Sc at Wainwright, together with Robert Buckingham, lecturer writ CT, and big-game hunter, of New York, acquiring material for lee lures and a proposed book on Al aska. Frothingham will accom- pany the Northland to Point Bar row and Wainwright where he will join native walrus hunt. with the expectation of securing a trophy for mounting. He will ave the Northland on her return to Nome in August and will go up the Yuk on to Fairbanks, whence. he will return home via the Alaska Rail road to Seward and the Alaska Steamship Co.,, to Seattle.
 Dr. L. M. Waugh, the well-known New York dzntist and Columbia University instructor, who has all ready served on the Northland during her Arctic cruises, was one of the passengers on the Alaska Steamship Co.'S ship Victoria and joined the Northland on his ar rival at Nome on the 18th of June.
 The Northland left for Colo vim Bay on Monday the 9th, to
 repla nish it's fresh-water tanks. then to Cape Denbigh to permit Messrs. Collins and Ford to do some archaeological research work in that vicinity. On the way she passed huge. unbroken ice foes drifting out of Norton Bay and q number of smaller foes carryin2 several hundred walrus consisting principally of cows accompanied by few young bulls. In con versation with several ShaktooHk natives who padded out to the ship in tn ir kayaks, from their fishing camp near Cape Denbigh, they stated that it was most un- usual to see such large numbers Of walrus in the eastern end of Norton Sound. Again on the 12th.. when the Northland was 45 miles southwest of Golovin Bay, large croups of walrus were seen on de- tached foes, totalling at least 150 After cruising about the south western part of Norton Sound, ob- sarving the ice conditions, the Northland returned to Nome at 3 pm. Saturday, June IA.
 The Northland again hoisted anchor and sailed for St. Lawrence Island, King Island, Little Dio- mede Island and arrived back at Nome this morning.
 Editors Note-In our next is- sue. Robert Frothingham will tell you of the cruise of the Northland to the islands of Boring Sea, Cape Prince of Wales. and the view of East Cape. Siberia from the deck of the cutter. His story is not only interesting but fascinating.

The broadening of the leadership in the
N M. u. is an imperative necessity, very little
progress can be made unless this is immedi
atel done. The building of the T. U. u L..
in mining towns has not yet been attempted.
The N. M. u must not allow itself to be iso
lated from the other workers in the mining
town. on the contrary, they must be drawn
into support of the N. M. u. Throughout the
coal fields in Illinois, the workers quite gen
orally organized into the A. F. of L., with the
U. M. w. A. dominating the central labor bod
les, while the bulk Of the rank and file
sympathetic to the N NJ. u. T. u. u. l..
groups must be organized and with the strug
gle to smash the corrupt central labor bodies
and the establishment of the T. U. u. i. as
the leader of the struggles of the workers in
the mining towns. In this respect no attempt
has really been made to build the T. U. U. l..
in Southern Illinois.
The present strike in Iliinois has not yet
shown any organizations gains for our Party.

Revolutionary Negro Tradition

due to the great handlcaps under which these
Negroes were forced to launch their attack
and the tremendous numerical strength of the
enemy, who outnumbered them ten to one
Complete though these failures were, they
had not the power of dampenng the revolu-
tionary ardor of these oppressed slaves, for
in 1922 we find more than two hundred Ne
groes assembled in a church near the mouth
of the Rappahannock River in Virginia with
the determination of destroying the entire
white ruling class of that state And in a
few years later, in 1880, when news was car
ried to Williamsburg, to the effect that all
the Christian Negroes in the town were to be
freed, the non-Chrs. an Negroes instantly
realizing that this move would only tend to
harden the lot of the ensaved rose up in
revolt.
While all of the above uprisings occurred
in Va. there were uprisings,i in other states as
well, particularly in South Carolina. This
state witnessed it's first uprising in iii which
had the nature of an isolated attempt on the
part of only a few of the more advanced
slaves. Later, however, in $780, we see an
elaborate plan drawn up by the Negroes for
organized warfare against the whites; the at
tack was to begin with each slave destroying
his master
White Workers Join With Negroes
Other states were also affected Almost
everywhere that the Negroes were oppressed
can be cited one or two instances of these
Negroes rising up against their oppressors and
attempting to throw off the yoke of bondage.
In 17l2, the City of New York was rocked to
its very foundation when reliable reports came
to light that the Negroes were planning land
did attempt) to overthrow the ruling class by
fire and sword. So alarming was this attempt
that the Elias Neau school, for the training
of Negroes, had to be closed down for many
months. The Negroes were defeated and many

tionally. This is due to the position generally
taken by Party and Y. C. l.. organizers, who
allow themselves to be entirely absorbed by
union work. First and foremost is the build
ing of the Party. If this is not accomplished
in strike struggle - cannot talk about sue
cess.
The present strike in Illinois has increased
materially the influence Of the Party the
r. y. U. l.. and the =. M. T., but unless the
errors are swiftly corrected, that influence will
lie essened, and the strike movement will pass
from undr our direction, which would give i'm
petus to the growth IF social reformism. In
order that the miners understand the situa-
ton I'D in order to clarity our own ranks, it
is necessary that Party members in the
N. M. u, nationally end in Illinois, propose
to issue Z. statement on the strike, examining
the errors that were committed and giving
directions for their correction.
Above all, every step in developing the H.
inois struggle must be inbued with the spirit
of preparation for the coming general ma
tiona movement of miners, which will come
to head next Fall

By Gilbert Lewis.

THE Comintern in the thesis of the Sixth
World Congress on the Negro question in
the U. S. A. declared that ma or task of the
American Party is to utilize the revolutionary
traditions of the Negro, to awaken his dor
mant revolutionary spirit, and win him for the
class struggle.
That the Negroes past is indeed rich in revo
lutionary tradition is a fact that glance at
any history of the Negro in America will
amply demonstrate. Aside from the purely
MARKHAM analysis that the most exploited
worker is potentially the best revolutionary
material, the Negroes history is replete with
many actual instances of uprisngs against his
exploiters and oppressors.
Always exploited, both as slave and as free
man, doubly oppressed, as Negro and as work
err, subjected to every infamy which the ruling
class has seen fit to visit upon him, segregated,
Disseminated against and made to feel in
ferior at every stage of the game, denied even
the most elementary rights as accorded the
rest of the working class, the Negro has
reacted to this oppression by sporadic out
bursts at various times throughout the entire
country.
First Negro Uprisings
That these uprisings have embraced the
whole history of the Negro in America is evil
denced in the fact that the first of these re-
volts occurred in 1857, only few years after
the first cargo of Negroes were brought to
America, and the latest to occur was in 1928
1t was in 1857, in Northern Neck of Vir-
ginia, that group of Negroes rose up with
the avowed purpose of killing all of the white
ruling class oppressors. They declared their
intention of taking the land and govern
ment for themselves. We had a repetition of
this few years later, in 1910, in Surrey Coun-
ty, Va. Both these attempts met with failure

understood platforms were made to
stand upon and not to be carried
out. Some very good points, inter-
spersed with several humorous in
cidents, were brought out about
our famous president Of Civil War
days.
The object of this speech was to
advertise the motion picture

duce students to write five hum

would Abraham Lincoln take on
