BONDS ARE LOWER
| ON STOCK DECLINE
Drop in Equities Reflected in
Liquidation of Senior
Securities.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 10.-After a
firm opening. bond prices turned down.
ward again today, most of the list slip
ping into new low ground for the year.
This was traceable to no other influence
than the stock market.
With every other factor favorable,
each sag of stocks to new>low levels
uncovers more margin calling, resulting
into heavy cashing of bonds to prop up
crumbling equity accounts. Naturally,
no class of bonds held in the portfolio
of American investors is exempt from
this type of liquidation.
In Germany there has been no
,hange in the situation, except possibly
further degree of return of conf
dence, yet German issues we're sold
today because of the action of stocks.
Similarly, South American republics
are slowly consolidating their economic
position under new governments and
their bonds should continue their re-
covery. But forced selling sent these
issues lower today.
Junior domestic securities have long
ago discounted the most drastic possible
drops in earnings but the slide in
High-grade issues were similarly al
fected, though to a lesser extent.
The firmneSs Of stocks at the opening
was Immediately reflected by strength
in bonds. leaving no doubt that when
the upturn in equities does come, the
response of the bond list will be prompt
and emphatic.
In the later selling seasoned invest
ment favorities such as New York Cen
trail As, Frisco A As, Union Pacific first As,
Chesapeake Corporation SIS, Nickel
Plate 412s, Inland Steel 4l2s, Standard
Oil of New Jersey IS, Columbia Gas IS,
Utah Power e. Light SIS and Interna-
Telephone SIS all sagged.
United States Government securities
were moderately active and firm, re-
spending to the Treasury offering OF
$125, 100000 of 91-day discount bills.
These are expected to be sold at a
record low price and there was some
switching into long-term issues as a
result
Convertible bonds were weak, with

Daily Worker
The Century Electric has devised
bright trick + cut the workers
wages, low as they are. Some time
ago the company started savings
scheme so the workers will be in
duced to save and may become cap
italists. The amount agreed to was
deducted from the weekly wages.
One of the girl workers getting
SIS a week began to save So for a
few weeks. Then the bosses got
busy, Investigated and decided that
the girl was saving too much and
cut her wages 81.
Last spring wages were cut from
20 to 40 per cent, but still that is
not enough and the bosses are con-
tinuously cutting wages in one way
or another.
The only way to fight against
wage-cuts and speedup is to or
ganize in the Metal Workers Indus
trial Union and to put up a fight
in an organized manner against the
wage-cutting "ampaign. of the
bosses. A WORKER.

Trying to Make China Safe
For World Finance Capital

Charles c. Batchelder, former
U. S. Commercial Attache in China,
again put out feeler for interna-
tional finance capital by proposing
a new "cure for China's ills" at the
general conference on China at the
Williamstown Institute of Politics.
1t is well-known that, about the
time when the 'Kemmerer Commits
sion went to China about eighteen
months ago, the same Mr.. Batch
elder wrote an article in the New
York Herald Tribune proposing a
Dawes Plan for China. Now, he
has come out with another plan, a
plan which involves the appoint
ment of an international commits
sion by the League of Nations ito
formulate plans to rehabilitate
China and to prepare the way for
financial aid" In other words, it
is plan to make China safe for
exploitation by international fin
ance capital.
Adding his voice to the increas-
ingly louder chorus of interna-
tional finance capital demanding
intervention and more open imper-
ialist control of China, Professor

Communist Editor In
Germany Is jailed

BERLIN U.P.S.).-The fourth
penal senate of the supreme court
at Leipzig recently sentenced the
responsible editor of the Schlesisi-
chen Arbeiterzeitung, Comrade AL
fred Thomas, to year and 3 months
fortress Imprisonment, on the
charge of preparation for high
treason. He is made responsible for
IL articles appearing in this paper.
Among these articles there are sew
eral for which other editors have al
ready been condemned to fortress
detention. Propaganda for political
mass strikes again occupies the lead
ing position as being a preliminary
stage of civil war. The public pro-
secutor substantiated the whole in
1ictment in minutes.
When the presiding judge pro-
nounced the sentence, and spoke of
penance and improvement, the
workers present answered with a
sounding "Red 'FRONT.'"

Blakeslee of Clark University,
posed the question whether any
state, in our small, inter-dependent
world, has the right to enjoy the
luxury of a decades-long political
disorganization." Of course the
answer is implied in the question.
This sort of logic is characteristic
of the imperialists.
Apologists of imperialism such as
Blakeslee naturally refuse to rec
ognize the fact that the chaos and
anarchy in China is a reflection of
the anarchy and conflicts of the
capitalist world as a whole and an
expression of the semi-feudalistic
conditions of the country which the
imperialists help to perpetuate.
Neither the imperialists, nor the
native bourgeoisie and the semi
feudal militarists can bring order
out of chaos in China. The task
rests with the revolutionary Chinese
proletariat and peasantry, which,
with the assistance of the interna-
tional proletariat, is the only his
torical force that can bring about
unity, prosperity and emancipation
for China.

NANKINC FORCES
DEFEATED BY RED
ARMIES IN HUMAN
Marking: "Grave Dan
ger of Communism"

With Marking government forces
which were sent to suppress the Red
Armies in Human province suffering
a decisive defeat, and the comman-
der of the Marking forces, General
Tai Tou-Kuan, missing, the capture
of Changsha by the workers and
peasants is again drawing near.
The imperialists and their native
lackeys are again becoming panicky.
Many japanese residents have with
drawn to Hankow, and shipment
of goods between Hankow and
Changsha has practically stopped.
General Ho Chen, one Of Chang
Kai-shek's lieutenants and Nan
kings governor of Human province,
also suffered severe defeat at the
hands of the Red Armies and is
now retreating from Liuyang, an
important city east of Changsha.
The City of Yukiang has also re-
Gently been taken by armed workers
and peasants.
Marking wounded soldiers, starv-
ing and desperate, are becoming in
creasingly revolutionary. For in
stance, in Kashan, railway town
situated between Shanghai and
Hangchow, 1000 wounded Marking
troops mutinied. This cannot be
considered as an isolated case but
a sign that shows a general ten
dency, a tendency of the revolution
ization of the soldiery. \
The victory in Shangtung against
the Northern Coalition and the cap
ture of Tsinan, the capital Of Shang-
tung province, by no means broke
the resistance of the Northern mill
tarists, but merely gave respite.
Thus, despite a following up of
the victory by an offensive drive
northward, Marking relaxed it's
pressure on all the fronts and issued
a manifesto appealing to the north
ern commander to come over to Nam
king. The manifesto, of course,
amounts practically to an announce
ment that Wall Street "silver bull
lets" are ready for all who want to
be hit by it.
However, the manifesto contains
an important admission that de-
serves particular attention. The
manifesto refers to the "grave dam
ger of Communism if the civil war
comes" and uses this as the main
point of appeal to the northern gen
erals. In other words, the revolt
tionary forces are becoming so
strong that the imperialist, semi
feudal bourgeois factions are more
and more realizing the necessity of
a united front Of the counter-revolu-
ton. But conflict among these
parasite robbers are so severe that
a united front of counter-revolution
is only next to impossible.

No human brains can or will con-

humble servants of the bosses, the
police of Chicago, and here is one
of thousands of items that happens
daily:
Thousands and thousands of I'M
employed workers are not able to
pay for street car rides to hunt for
work, so very many of them pick
up street car transfers and use them
to find work of some kind, yet with
out results.
So the Chicago police decided to
arrest and prosecute such often
ders, and on Saturday, Aug. IS, the
police station was filled by unem-
ployed poor men.
Some of them drew a So fine and
others 10 days in Jail. Now, you
can imagine the humiliation of the

Why is there an iron bound united
front between the A. F. Of L. fascist
leadership, the bosses and the $50
cialists" against the Workers IN
employment Insurance Bill?
The Workers Unemployment In
surance Bill demands minimum
weekly payment for all unemployed
of not less than $25 week. The
first demand in this direction is
that all war funds passed by the
boss government be turned over to
an unemployed fund, to be run by
workers. The A. F. Of L. backs the
boss war preparations. They want
this money to go for war and not
to the unemployed.
The Bill goes on to demand that a
levy be placed against all fortunes
of $4,000 and over, to create ar
unemployed fund. This would hit
Green, Woll and the other takers in
the A. F. of L. In their collabora-
ton with the bosses, in their scabby
activities, they have reaped fortunes
while the millions of jobless starve
Green, Woll & Co. want to pro.
tect the profits of the bosses at the
expense of the starvation of millions
of workers.
With mass unemployment, the
bosses are increasing their wage
cutting campaign. Green, Woll &
Co. is pledged to do all they can
to stop strikes. The A. F. of L. is
pitting the unemployed against the
employed--so the bosses can profit.
The T. U. U. L., together with its
fight for unemployment insurance,
is conducting a major struggle
against wage cuts. 1t is modifying
