MASS PROTEST
AT TREASON
POLICY OF AFL
TUUL Calls Meeting in Con-
yention Period

NEW YORK.-The AFL executive
committees program for the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor convention
meeting Oct. 6 in Boston was ex-
posed by the national office of the
Trade Union League yesterday as a
further move in its old trickery
against the workers.
The ALL program calls for a
icy adopted at the last convention,
the T. U. U. L. points out.
"One of the issues decided at it's
last convention was the campaign to
organize the southern textile worker"
continues the T. U. u. l.. Eyes, the
ALL misleaders of labor made
serious attempt to go into the
South. but not for the purpose of
organizing the Southern workers, not
for the purpose of fighting against
wage cuts, the stretch out system
and all its consequences. They did
not go into the South for the pur-
pose of organizing the Negro work
ers and the white workers, but they
went there for the purpose of help
ing to force upon the workers in the
South the program of the bosses and
organized a united front with all of
the enemies of the southern working
class against the revolutionary up
surge of the southern masses.
AFL for Low Wage
Their program of no wage in
all Ioair oil
with all the capitalist state institu-
tons to fight against the demands Of
the unemployed is just another ex-
ample to the extent these misleaders
of labor are ready to go in order ac-
tually and openly serve as the re-
sponsible agents for the complete
program of our class enemies.
More than that. Mr.. Green, presi-
dent of the ALL, as well as Matthew
VOL, are acting as the organizers
for all the counter revolutionary
dukes and princes, as well as the
Russian counter revolutionary white
guardists in this country, in order to
bring about an attack against the
Soviet Union"
The T. U. L. L. is preparing a
further statement exposing in detail
the treachery and Fascist progress Of
the A. F. L., which will be given to
a big mass demonstration of Boston
workers during the A. F. L. conven-
ton.
This mass demonstration is called
by the T. u. U. L. to meet in Frank
lin Union Hall, Boston, Oct. 8. Gen.
eral Assistant Secretary John Schmies
will be the main speaker.

Ernest Hemingway's famous novel,
Farewell to Arms" arranged for the
stage by Laurence Stallings, is now
playing at the National Theatre
where 1t is being presented by A. H.
Woods.
While many who read the book may
find the stage version of Hemingway's
story fiat at times, on the whole II Is
a stirring play and is worthy of earn
est consideration. The main fault that
can be found, as with many novels
that are later presented on the stage,
is the difficulty of crowding into
three acts the essential and important
parts of full size book. Farewell
to Arms" suffers great deal in this
respect. As a result many of the
scenes are only mere flashes that
never have the opportunity to develop
due to the lack Of time.
There is no need to go into details
here as to the story. II tells of Lieut..
Henry and his love for Catherine.
How he is wounded and she nurses
him back to health. Later she gives
birth to his child. Shortly afterwards
both the mother and child die. AS in
the novel, the love Of the American
for the English nurse is moving.
Stallings, who will be remembered
for What Price Glory" and The
Big Parade" is not afraid to call a
spade a spade and, as a result. there
is NO little plain talk during the prog
ress OF the play. While the profanity
may shock some Of the more tender
theatregoers on a whole, it is nee
essary part Of the production.
Glenn Anders gives a moving per-
Torrance as Lieut.. Henry, while
ELISA Landi, who is well known on
the British stage, is very satisfactory
as Catherine. Others in the large
cast include Crane WILDER, c. Sager
caza5a, Armand Cortez, and Rene
Roberti.

BRITISH CRISIS
SHAKES EMPIRE
u. 5. Boss Writer Tells His
Fears

Conveniently putting more stress
on the throes of the economic crisis
in Great Britain, and overlooking the
equally sharp crash at home. Ray
mond Gram Swing, London corre-
spondent for the New York Evening
Post in a dispatch on Monday points
out the tremendous shaking of the
entire British Empire.
is this the twilight OF a great
nation?" asks Swing in awed tone
He points out that the 100000 un-
employed is constantly being added
to; that India is in revolt; that civil
war is near in Egypt, and that the
British are meeting stern competi-
ton in the world markets Swing
conveniently does not mention that
there Is war threatening between the
British and American masters for
these very markets and that the
crisis which grips British imperial
ism has a toehold on the entire capt.
talist world.
The theory that the British had
reached the twilight stage was dis
seminated both at home and abroad"
writes Swing. Men in their London
clubs repeated gloomy figures to each
other. In the don1inions anxious and
sympathetic friends of the mother
land wondered if it could be true
what SO many sons and daughters
have had to ask themselves secretly
about their aging parents.
And then came the present world
slump, hitting Britain harder lit was
assumed) than the rest because of
the heavy blows which already had
preceded it,"
Left out Of the picture completely
by Mr.. Swing is the yeoman service
that the British Labor Party leader
ship is rendering to British i'm
perialisns,
What bothers Swing so much, and
of course the class for whom he
writes, the American bosses, is that
in the distance instead Of seeing
greener fields they foresee the doom
of capitalism.

dangerous cash that required treat

his hand operated on.
The swollen hand didn't heal after
the operation, and the Cushman
bosses had no further use for a
worker who had worked SO long and
as they had to admit, was so in
dustrious and conscientious. witlfeut
a second thought they fired Byams.
They made no mention of eompensa-

that caused them to fire him, but
simply turned him loose to join the
growing army Of the 5000, 900 jobless
to starve.
In spite of the trick IN tearing
