sufficient number of Negro miners upon the
top committee at the beginning; "a the mis-
take Of keeping the whole Negro question on
the elementary plane-the simple trade
union" plane-the combining of the Negro ques-
ton to one of Solidarity of Negro and white"
and therefore insufficient recognition of the
peculiar position of oppression of the Negro Ono
mention of determination for the Negro
people, insufficient concentration of the strug-
gle for equal rights, etc.; and (5) failure to
bring forward Gin the Negro question above alb
the face and program of the Party, the failure
generally to poticalize the positionSof the Negro
miners in the struggle.
60 Unemployed Miners. While excellent
work has been achieved in the creation of the
united action on the part of the unemployed
and employed miners hunger marches) the
organization OF the unemployed has been very
small Also in the course of the strike little
has been done to fight for the demands of the
unemployed 1t is necessary TO correct these
shortcomings This question is tied up with the
checking of the back-to-work movement and
with the further spreading of the strike.
60 Young Miners. The young miners con-
stitute large section of the strikers The
strike committee and the N. M. U. must devote
more attention to work among the young miners,
draw them into active leadership, develop the
ueuldllOS Oh tne young miners ana Dulld the
youth sections of the N. M. u, overcoming at
the same time separation tendencies. The Party
must give more assistance to the Y. G. L. in
the recruitment of the young miners into the
Y. c. L.
% Women. Some progress has been made
in drawing the women in the strike area into
the fight and in the building of the women's
auXiliartes, More women must be drawn into
the strike leading bodies and into the relief ac-
tivity Similarly, the children of the miners
must be drawn in more than heretofore into
the strike activity and attention given to the
building up of the Young Pioneer organization
in the striking fields.
CD Press. We must pay more attention to
the improvement of the material from the mine
strike in our press The press is not being suf-
ficiently utilized to take up the actual problems
of the strike and to answer the important ques-
ton that arises in the course of the strike. The
Party has not explained all problems suffi-
GENTLY to the miners. 1t is necessary to Or
ganize better correspondence from the striking
miners to the press.

 HEADACHE !?

So easy to get quick relief and pre- went an attack in the future. Avoid bromides and dope. They relieve quick iy but affect the heart and are very dangerous. They are depressing and only give temporary relief, the cause of the headache still remains within.
 The sane and harmless way. First correct the cause, sweetcn the sour and acid stomach, relieve the intes- lines of the decavcd and poisonous food matter. gently stimulate the liver, start the bile flowing and the bowels pass off tile waste matter which causes your headache Ask your druggist for red pkg. of Carter's Little Liver Pills.

Been Touched.

world commodity prices have now
touched q new low for II years in many
eountpies as a result Of the two-year-
long decline and Federal economists
are saying that the time is coming in
the not distant futures when price levels
will be measured IN comparison With
the early months Of 1881 instead Of the
so-caIled basic year Of 1918, now used.
Indeed, as the quotations Of some
commodities have begun to recover, the
new basis of comparison already is being
used and 1913 Is mentioned only In an
o6-hand manner, like the defiationary
period of 1e20.21. The students OF
price ranges must have some base upon
which to calculate their indexes and
percentages and some authorities be-
1isve that probably April or May Of
1881 may be elected.
The Department Of Commerce has
Just completed survey of prices In II
foreign countries and it found that the
drop between 1929 and 1891 had ranged
from q minimum Of 10 per cent to o
maximum Of 80 per cent. Prices In the
United States fell OF something like 20
per cent.
-Four Of the II European nations saw
the general level Of prices advance from
May to June, end there were advances
In some line IN this country during
the same time. Thus the economists
consider that the brakes became opera
tive against falling prices some time
around February or March, followed by
o recovery q month or two later.
There Is no way to tell accurately ct
the moment just where the turn oc-
CURED, because those things are dealt
with In retrospect as the only sure
means Of reaching definite information.
It is made to appear even now, how
ever, according to the experts, that the
sun peeped through the clouds of de-
precision coincident with the coming Of
Spring In 1881, and history may 50
record It,
The departments findings show that
few commodities escaped the sharp de-
cline that now Is said rather definitely
TO have become active In July, 1879.
Concerning the character of the price
drop, the department says 1t was pro-
ductive CT so much uncertainty that it
was on a par with the defiationary PEE

it IL somewhat diAlcu1t to zee how this

Latin American Business.
Exporters and merchants are finding
It increasingly difficult to do business
with Latin American republics. This
is especially true of countries whose
exchanges are subject TO wide fiuctua-
tions, or where there exist serious prob
lens regarding the transfer Of exchange
or the conversion Of clrrencies into
foreign moneys.
It u because Of these reasons that
the Ang1o-South American Bank has
decided TO close its branch and two

quay, after having been there for AL
most 40 years.
Unless Hungary succeeds In securing,
In the very near future, foreign fnali-

for granted that whatever fate may

the auspices Of the League Of Nations
Is not likely TO be affected.
