There are those today who are inclined to
believe that the craftsman is a thing of the
past, and that the market for fine craft work
is gone. Mr.. Hale, in his continued success and
fine production, is an outstanding refutation OF
such melancholy belief. No matter to what
degree the machine may be perfected, and none
will deny that its perfection is already miracu-
lous, it can never take the place OF the skill
full hand guided by the instinct of the creative
artist. No machine-made jewelry could ever
compare with that produced by the great
artists of the past or by Mr.. Hale and his gifted
contemporaries There is refinement, finish,
an evidence of loving care. which sets such
work apart, each piece being unique. 1t is art
of high order which the great masters OF the
Renaissance willingly recognized, and to which
they paid homage as to the works OF art In
other mediums. The combination OF precious
and Semi-precious stones in varying colors with
precious and Semi-precious metals wrought into
exquisite designs suitable for personal adorn-
ment is art of a fascinating sort. It is this
art that Mr. Hale practices and will exhibit

That the lntur1ated bourgeois, with
the aid of Yankee and British i'm
perialism, we're preparing a blood
bath for the revolutionary workers.
One of the late United Press dis
patches reported 500 killed at Tai
chuano, seaport $50 miles from
Santiago, Chile, where revolutioniSts
had possession Of the land batteries.
The capitalist press reports say that
loyal government troops captured
the batteries and shot every fifth
revolrtionist.
The thirty airplanes in the con-
troll Of the government were reported
in action against the navy, the war
ship O'Higgins disabled and other
craft being attacked.
At the same time, the street car
strikes in the leading cities of Chile
are still on. There is a complete
censorship Of news with the govern
ment sending out only such infor-
nation as it wants known.
In the United States, American
imperialism, which plans to shoot
down unemployed workers here and
to use the armed forces to enforce
wage cuts for American workers, is
preparing to support the war of the
Chilean whiteguards against the
workers and sailors who too are
resisting wage cuts and demanding
unemployment relief.
1t is significant to learn from what
sources the propaganda in favor of
the noble" Chilean government
comes. Spruville Braden, son of Col
William S. Braden, millionaire
copper mine owner in Chile, de-
clares that conditions are mot so
bad in Chile" and the workers there
have no right to take up arms in
their struggle against benevolent
capitalists like Braden himself. Bra
den praises the upper classes" and
says he believes the peasants and
workers have the "fortitude" to suf-
fer hunger without attacking the
government that protects the mil
lions of profits of Braden, Guggen-
helm, the Standard Oil and such
other parasites in Chile.
In issuing his statement for sup
port of the Chile government against
the mutinous sailors and Commu-
nists Braden said that ne is asso-
ciated with the Braden Copper Co.,
and the Andes Copper Co., both of
which are connected with the An
aconda Copper Co.. Composing
large part of the $7OoOo,OOO of Am
erican money invested in Chile"
The Anaconda Copper Co. has cut
wages of its workers in the United
States from 20 to 80 per cent.

Expect Large Crowd
Of Workers

NEW YORK.-The Solidarity Day
festival and demonstration at Star
light Park, 177th Street and West
Farms Road, September 7th Labor
Day. will bring together great
mass of workers. The program, rich
with working class culture, will be
varied and colorful.
The Committee on Affairs makes
the following suggestions in the spirit
of revolutionary understanding and
in the light of working class self
discipline: first, all of us who par
ticipate must impose upon ourselves
working class self discipline; second,
we must occupy our seats during the
Solidarity Demonstration in the Co.
liseum and refrain from walking be-
tween the seats, aisles; third, we
must not talk to our neighbors when
speakers are on the platform; fourth,
we must occupy those seats which
the ushers indicate; fifth, we must
refrain ourselves from rising while
the pageant is taking place; sixth,
when the demonstration is over, we
must leave the Coliseum in an or
derby manner. If we all observe these
simple, but tremendously important
suggestions, we will be proving that
we understand the meaning of work
ing class solidarity and will be play
ing a real part in the greatest de-
monstration of solidarity the working
class of New York has ever seen. All

The arrested workers were charged
with disorderly conduct, obstructing

many other charges they could put
on them. After being held in night

pointed out that if they wanted to
