budget estimates for 1S31-1932 at

of $54,O00,000 tentatively sug-

ureS for debate.
DR.. Luther Reichel lderfer, presi-
dent Of the board, yesterday said
the Commissioners expected to
hold the estimated expenditures
for 1892 down to expected rev.
enue, so there will be no increase
in the tax rate.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. - I'm
mediate attention will be given to
the subject of banking by congress
when it convenes next month. A
program, already under way to
modify the national and federal
reserve banking systems, will be
pushed to the foreground Of the
winters business by the fast
mounting list of banks that have
failed or closed their doors, it ap-
peared certain today.
Soon after congress meets, five
members of the senate banking
and currency committee will begin
an investigation, already authorized,
of the federal reserve system and
of national banks, with special at .
tention to bank holding companies.
AS soon as this committee has
accumulated sufficient data, it will
doubtless ask the entire banking
and currency committee to con-
slider legislation to modify existing
banking laws.

FOR TRIAL FOR BIG MEET

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July IT,
Fourteen workers will come up for
trial on July % in Philadelphia as
a result of arrests at a waterfront
meeting on Friday, organized by the
Communist Party and the Marine
Workers Industrial Union.
The arrested include Frank Mozer,
Communist candidate for governor;

Roba Glass, all members of the
Young Communist League; s. Tay-

mist Party; P. Pizor, of the National
Textile Workers Union; o. Swain
and A. Hudson, of the Marine Work
ers' Industrial Union.
At the first hearing of the cases,
at 1880 the same morning, about
200 marine workers came to the
court to support the arrested com
rades, but they were all put out by
the judge, who did not want them
to hear the lies that the Officers"
were telling about the prisoners.
The 200 remained in front of the
Jail, singing revolutionary songs
when the prisoners were removed.

Hoover has cooked his own goose,
with his pompous chatter about

ipecac, the ridiculous ass he has
made of himself "stabilizing" wheat,
has disturbed if not ruined his petty
bourgeois support; while his $1,000

workers the fact that he, as the
agent of the whole capitalist class,
has refused to give a cent to the
millions Of unemployed, but has
given back hundreds of millions to
big corporations in tax refunds.

DETROIT, July II. -- Packing the

Bill Dunno, National Organizer of

of the significance of the Flint

According to P. J. Philip, the
Paris correspondent of the New
York Times, "many Frenchmen be-
lieve" that the Italian and German
proposals for the revision of the
Versailles Treaty is made with
the connivance, if not the actual
good will of England" This is
more than probable since it is a
well known fact that Italy and
England have been quite close to-
gether, ever since relations between
Italy and the United States have
become strained.
The grouping of forces among the
imperialist powers are proceeding
very fast. All capitalist powers
realize clearly the imminence of the
war, and almost all the movements
on the chess board of capitalist
world politics represent the at
tempts of the two most powerful
rivals, Great Britain and the
United States, are busy in securing
allies for the coming war. The fact
that the demand for the revision of
the Versailles Treaty has already
been openly made by two powers is
another important sign showing
that war is near.
The working class must not be
caught sleeping. Let all class
conscious workers rally to the anti
war demonstration on August /,
the International anti-war day.

COOK ATTACKS
AMSTERDAM
Pravda Comments On
Cook S Zigzag Course
Wireless By Inprecorr)

MOSCOW, July II. - A. j. Cook
handed to a Soviet Press represen-
tative at Stockholm a radical dec
laration for publication in the So
Wet Union. The declaration attacks
Amsterdam as an agent Of capital
ism and tool of the International
Labor Office where Albert Thomas
represents the interests Of the bour-
geoisie.
The declaration also contains the
following: When faced with capt.
talist offensive, Amsterdam becomes
timid, moderate and reactionary.
Capitalist offensive now demands
trade union unity but Amsterdam
refuses to take the path to unity.
For a year, Amsterdam has been
cooperating with the Christian
unions and fascists. Unemployment
is growing, but Amsterdam sup
ports naturalization which is the
curse for the workers.
The declaration also says that the
British miners have not yet forgot
ten 1926 when Amsterdam permit
ted coal to pour into Britain while
Russians supported the miners
struggles financially.
Cook said that he is against the
tactics of British Communists, but
is dissatisfied with Amsterdam and
that he would sooner cooperate with
the Red international of Labor I'm
iors rather than with fascists and
the Christian unions.
He also said that workers eX-
pected fighting measures from the
Stockholm Congress but the dele
gates were only enjoying holidays
during the Congress sessions. He
called the Swedish socialists only
moderate liberals.
Pravda, commenting on the decla-
ration, says that Cooks zigzag
course is we'll known. The present
outburst # radicaIism may be later
followed by ISLANDERS against Com
munists. One moment Cook APP
preached the Red international of
Labor Unions; at the next moment,
he supports the British right wing
ers. The declaration is the result
of the rehabilitation of the masses,
who compel Cook to make radical
phrases in order to retain whatever
influence he still has among the
British miners.
