The Once Over
NIGHT GOLF

NIGHT OFF
(Copyrigt, 1880, BY The Associated Newspapers)
Kansas City now has a course for golf at night. If
the idea spreads it will be q great thing for the ma
ton. Millions Of people will then pay attention to
business in the daytime.
$500
II you want to interview a business man today you
have TO make an appointment with him in some gully,
ditch or sandtrap.
He comes to the office only to see that the help is
in and he remains only long enough to arrange for
an all-day industrial conference with the three other
captains Of industry in the meadows Of the nearest
golf club.
Most Of the country's business troubles today can
be blamed on day golf. No country can prosper in
definitely when a majority Of its master minds are
staggering around suburban acreage hunting for lost
golf balls instead Of staying in the office looking for
lost business.
Night golf will give American business a break. 1t
may be the hope Of the nation. Players may not be
able to see the ball as well at night. but why COM
plain? The trouble with the game is that too many
players are able to find the ball for their second shot
"
And night golf will be better on the eyes Of spec
tators. After watching the average player. you can't
help feeling that he should be compelled to do all his
golfing in total darkness.
There will be complaints by players that they can't
see where their ball went, but that will be a welcome
influence. It's having an idea where the ball went
that slows up the game so much.
Golf BY night should leave the players in O better
mood. A man can play with his conscience unburden-
ed by the realization that he is not doing right BY the
stockholders. H can do his divot-digging without the
psychological handicap Of knowing il means another
family uproar II he gets home late for dinner.
re can proceed to wear himself into a complete
state Of exhaustion without that sinking feeling that
comes with knowing that when the game is over he
will have to 90 out to the theater or to play bridge
with the wife.
And the wives and children will get a break, too.
A husband and father out on the golf course at night
is more to be desired than one at home all evening
describing the brides he missed by an inch.
All In all. night golf should be encouraged. II has
long been a wonder TO most Of us that President Hoo
ver's business restoration commission hadn't order
ed 1t.

US. ADMITS AIM Is
TO MURDER SERIO.
Cooperating With
Mussolini

NEW YORK.-A direct admission
from the Department of Labor that
they will deport Guido Serio or any
other militant worker from the U.
S. if he shows any resistance to
capitalism in America was forth
coming today in signed story as
published in the Washington Daily
News.
Labor department officials stated,
when they were interviewed on the
Serio case, that this country will
not harbor any foreign born who
make an attempt to tear down the
institutions of this country" This
statement is in direct line with what
the International Labor Defense has
> long claimed for the Washington
authorities. But what is more i'm
portant is the acknowledgment of
these government officials that they
are sending Serio to his death in
Italy. When they were questioned
by the capitalist newspaper if Serio
is to face a firing squad at the
hands of Mussolini, their answer was
almost in the affirmative: they said
that they had no evidence of such
nature, but quickly added that eff
he has violated the laws of Italy, it
may be presumed that he will be
punished"
While awaiting Serio's deporta-
ton at Ellis Island, the attorney
for the International Labor Defense,
Carol Weiss King, is presenting her
brief to Federal Judge VIM. Bondy,
demanding voluntary departure for
this militant worker.

ceived support from hundreds of

Crisis Gets Worse, as More Lose Jobs; Boss
Party Promises Will Not Feed Workers;
Communists Continue Struggle

Today is election day, but with
the closing of the polls the question
of hunger for the 100000 unem-
ployed workers and their families
is not solved. The capitalist par
ties with their fake promises carry
on their campaign to win votes.
The Communist Party, through
out the Lection campaign pointed
out to the W. rkers that a class fight
is necessary to win unemployment
insurance from the bosses and their
government. A vote for the Com
munist Party is a vote to continue
the struggle against the rotten cap

ment and wage cuts, and for the

All facts point to a worsening of

wage cuts is still here and will grow
more acute after the elections.
The fight for unemployment insur-
ance, the fight against starvation,
must not stop with the closing of
the polls. The bosses want this to
happen.
They want the workers to starve
quietly and quit fighting. But the
workers will not starve, as they
have shown on hundreds of occa.

engaged for the convention.
Many Meets
Numerous anti-lynching confer
ences held by ANLC locals through
out the country during the past six
months have served to mobilize the
workers for support OF the conven-
ton which will focus and organize
the fight against Negro oppression.
At all of these conferences dele
gates were elected to the convention,
while many delegated organizations
pledged full support to the efforts
of the American Negro Labor Con-
gress to build powerful fighting

struggle against oppression and for
their demands for full political and
social equality and the right of self
determination for Negro majorities
