American Ace Does Flight In

oS Minutes covering ZZS
Miles; London-Rome Mark
HEsToN AIRDROME, LON
DON, April % Q.N.SD.-Adding
another speed record to his al
ready impressive list, Capt. Frank
M. Hawks, American ace, flew
from Paris to London today
faster than any man had ever
made the trip before.
He covered the 229 miles sepa-
rating LIE BOurget Air Field,
Paris, from HeStOn AirdrOme in
50 minutes, according to the Off
cial timekeeperS at the field.
Fuel Gave Out
When Hawks sent his low
winged monoplane down on the
London flying field, he completed
his round-trip flight TO Rome
and return. He had planned to
make the entire journey between
breakfast and sunset yesterday,
but his hopes we're dashed by
exhaustion of his fuel supply
owing to headwinds encountered
on the return trip.
Hawks had taken off at 1884
D. m. from the field near Glen,
100 miles south of Paris, where
he made his forced landing yes
terday.
Thirty-three minutes later he
landed at LIE BOurget and at
11:5O was off again.
Hawks feat in flying from Lon
don to Rome, 900 miles, in five
and One-haIf hours aStounded all
Europe, particularly in view of
the fact that the flight was ac-
cOmplished in the face of driving
wind and rain.
Beat KingSfOrd-Smt
He beat the previous record for
London-to-Rome set by Wing
Comdr. Charles Kingsford-Smith
by seven hours and 10 minutes.
Undaunted by his failure to
complete the round trip of some
1000 miles between breakfast
and sunset, Hawks announced
almost the moment he shut off
his engine at Glen that he would
try again within a few days "to
bring home the bacon" He said:
81 might have succeeded in
returning from Rome as fast
IS / got there, but it would
have meant bucking head
winds. However, / had prom
iSed my wife / wouldn't take
any chances. / flew off a di
rect course toward Nice.
Plenty of Wine
''Near Orleans, I realized my
gasoline was low so decided to
land as soon as 1 could pick
out a field. Presently
spotted a nice, smooth pastur,
age and on landing, found my
self three miles from Giens. A
local miller named Cirage Of
fered me shelter for the night.
He promised plenty of wine.
"WeIl, had terrible luck
this time, but I'll make that
old rOund-trip next time. I'll
probably take off for London
from Paris later in the after
noon. The plane is undamaged,
and / had no trouble with the
motor"
UP 10000 Feet
The American flier, after
hearty breakfast served by his
proud host. lost no time in re-
fueling his machine and survey
ing the field for a take-off.
Practically all of the Glen popu-
lation for once postponed it's early
morning chores to stare in curl
osity at the smiling American in
spect his swift, low-winged mono

perfect condition.
Hawks said he climbed to an
elevation of 10000 feet to achieve
any visibility over the Alps.

working class.
2. That the strike takes place in spite of un-
employment situation. 1t repudiates the oppor-
tunst theory of impossibility OF strike struggles
in the period OF severe unemployment.
8. That the strike takes an offensive charac-
ter; the demands Of reduction of working hours

apprentices from $3.50 to $3.50 for five months.

4. That these struggles also take place in the
present intensive prosecutions against foreign
born workers particularly the Chinese workers
by the boss government. Thus these struggles
clearly refute the dangerous assumption that
at present time it is very hard to develop strug-
giles among the foreign born workers.
5. That the strike and unemployment strug-
giles, taking place simultaneously, demonstrate
the possibility and necessity of linking up the
struggles of the unemployed and the employed.
6. Lastly that taking the consideration of the
fact that the T. U. U. l.. begins to play a con-
siderable part in leading the struggles, and also
taking place amidst strike struggles of the Phil
Pine, Mexican and Japanese workers in Cali
fornia, these struggles will greatly help break
down the isolation Of the Chinese workers from
the general life and struggles Of the American
working class, and organize all workers for
common struggle.
Increasing Attacks Of the Employers.
The Chinese employers, closely cooperating
with the imperialist government are using every
means Of intimidation and terror to break these
struggles of the workers. Not only the powerful
instrument of immigration laws, but also the
family longs, the fighting longs, district organ
izations (clannish) and all other forces of semi,
feudalist and capitalist reaction will be employed
against the struggling workers. About hundred
police we're mobilized during the unemployment
demonstrations. Deportations against the lead

THE election campaign of New Jersey is on.
i The Republican and Democratic Parties are
already grooming their standard bearers. Both
have picked outstanding capitalists their
standard bearers The Republican Party is
grooming for governor, David Baird, who filled
the unexpired term of Walter E. Edge in the
Senate when he was chosen Ambassador to
France
David Baird is an outstanding figure in the
Baird Lumber Co. of Camden, N. j., one of the
biggest lumber companies of New Jersey. Baird
is also one Of the big bankers of the state and
a leading member Of the Public Service Cor
poration.
The Democratic Party has as its standard
bearer for governor A. Harry Moore of the
Hague Machine, who was governor during the
Passaic strike few years ago and sent armed
deputies to break the strike.
It is interesting to know that practically all
governors or senators of New Jersey are bank
ers. There is Morgan F. Larson member of the
Board of Directors of banks in Perth Anlboy
and other cities in New Jersey, also partner

There are many outstanding issues in the

are without any relief whatever. What little
relief was being given to very small fraction of
these workers by the city and state government
through part time work, road construction, ETC.,
is being taken away Wage-cuts are sweeping
the length and breadth of the state. Wage
cuts have taken place in practically every city
from Trenton to Paterson, Jersey City, and all
other cities. Lay-offs are taking place daily.

m the 18th of April, about 300 Chinese laundry
workers in San Francisco went on strike pre-
cipitated by the attempts Of the Tung Ching
Tong employers associatiorO introducing wage
cuts and dismissing union workers replaced by
cheap unorganized labor. The strike was de-
cided and demands formulated by general
shop delegates meeting. Also strike commit
tee Of 70 was elected to prepare the strike about
two weeks ago. The strikers are very militant
and enthusiastic. The strike is developing and
will embrace the city of Oakland and the neigh
boring territories.
The Unemployment Demonstration.
Prior to this strike, the unemployed Chinese
workers there have been carrying on an active
struggle for immediate relief A Club of Chinese
Unemployed Workers, affiliated to the Unem-
ployment Council of the T. U. u. L. was organ
led Beside participating in the general unem-
ployment struggles, they put forward special
demands before the Chinese Six Companies, the
Civil Government in Chinatown" and COM
posed mostly Of leading merchants. They de-
mand: % establishment of relief stations Of
food and shelter and free employment agencies
at the expenses of the Six Companies and a
special appropriation of $1500,o00 from the city
funds, managed by the workers; (2 free medi-
:al services for the unemployed by the Tung
Hwa Hospital; CD free school for the children
d the unemployed by the Chinese Schools. A
huge demonstration was staged before the Six
Companies on March % and on April with the
presentation of these demands. The struggle is

But, in spite of the terrors and threats of the

have struck and will continue, with the help of
all workers. to carry on the fight to the very
end.
Our Tasks.
The TUUL and the militant workers in Cali
fornia must pay special attention to these strug-
giles. They must give daily detailed guidance ard
assistance to the strike. They must coordinate
the strike with the unemployment struggle The
mobilization of American workers, especially the
Japanese, PHILIPPINE and Negro workers to the
help of the laundry workers is an important
condition for the developing, broadening and
maintaining the strike. Strengthening the lead
ersfip of the 81 Flu Tong the Association of
Chinese Laundry Workers. by drawing in capable
and active rank and file workers is also urgent.
The revolutionary Chinese workers in other
sections of the country must rally TO help the
strike. Connecting up with the local problems,
these struggles can be stimulus to develop local
struggles Of the unemployed and employed Chin
csc workers

1.-THE men who bind you in chains can hardly
be expected to release you voluntarily. The
workers must do it themselves or it will never
be done" Thus spake-not Notwithstanding
C. B. Ellis, the Seattle Solomon of the IW.W.
at a meeting in that burg, supposedly to discuss
something about unemployment
Unfortunately, the I.W.W. paper which re-
ported the speech, the Industrial Worker" OF
which Ellis is editor, also reported that to help
him release" the working class Ellis had called
in the able support of two other liable speakers"
who pounded consistently and courageously at
fundamental causes and effects eyes, dear read
er, the effects also are Observation-Disclosures
pertaining to unemployment"
And who we're these other st. Georges who
were Staying the dragon of unemployment while
C. B. Ellis was holding it firmly by the tailP
Were they the workers" who must do it them
selves? Let the wobbly paper tell us:
thanking Ellis, the key speaker Of the eve
ming, were the Rev. George Ashley, Unitarian
minister, and DR.. Edwin j. Brown "a retired
Methodist as we recall.-Jorge), former mayor
of Seattle both of whom acquitted themselves
nobly in the tasks they undertook"
And what did these noble gentlemen, whose
lives have been spent in binding you in chains"
undertake? Why, to second the heroic efforts
of C. B. Ellis in Staying the dragon Of unem-
ployment, Of course!
But still we are puzzled. For in this same
paper edited by Mr.. Ellis, who on the front
page tissue of April 4th) is pounding the very
devil out of unemployment, we find on page four,
the announcement of this same editor, who states
fatty that: 1.-THE end of the panic is near and
in the resumption of work that is near at
hand. :" etc.

last piece of wobby wisdom, is an attack on the

suits of a meeting held by Hungarian fascist
named Fishbein who finds himself right at home

FiShbens present purpose in life is to take I'D
the cry of the Fish Committee and devote his
speeches to attacking Communists. When he did
so on this OCCASION it appears that some work
ers protested among them an editor Of the
"Uj Elore," Communist paper in Hungarian
language.
Not being either a Unitarian preacher or an
ex-mayor Of Seattle, he was hit over the head
with a hammer by wobbIies who reject the
dictatorship of the proletariat on principle. But
who would recognize this event in the follow

- Let's Go Shopping

After all the wild reports
from the last Paris openings,
we didn't know what to expect
when we went shopping for
evening dresses! Period revivals
with all sorts Of fuss and fur
belows-such were the things
we'd heard. And what a relief
to find that period influences,
when they do show up, are very
modified. So much so at times
you'd hardly recognize them!
Empire in the Evening
Knowing the hold the Empire
influence has taken on daytime
dresses in the sleeves, we
weren't surprised at all to see
Empire high-waist effects in so
many evening gowns!
The model sketched is the
loveliest we've seen. Rhine
stones in a rich effect softly
draw in the high bodice. And
then disappear around the back,
under the contrasting velvet
bow. So that you can appreci-
ate what the back Of this gown
is like, we've sketched it on the
lady in the background.
The scanning running verti-
cally increases the effect Of
height-an effect that's already
suggested by the highneSs Of
the waist. This dress comes in
all the palest Of pastels which
are generally called "ice shades"
And it's made Of "Rumba"
crepe, which is just a little
sheerer than crepe Roma. About
$50 is what 1t costs.

need to recall past eraS to take
