ACTIVITIES AT CENTRAL UNION

Central won the girls basketball
championship due to an all-round
squad rather than to the brilliancy
of few stars. Central's total score
was 264 as compared to its oppo-
nents' total score of 49.
Mrs. Moore, the girls coach, had
= SO many good players that she never
! definitely picked a first team, since
she believed that as many girls as
/ possible should play in the winning
games. In this way the morale OF
the team was not lost if one or two
girls could not play, for the team did
not depend too much on any one
person.
Mona Holbrook, captain, was out
standing in that she made 14l points
out of the total of 264. Vivian Has
kell running center, was also a
4 notable player.
81 Although there are only six on a
playing team, Mrs. Moore considers
she following her squad: Mona Hol-
brook, Barbara Cannon. Ora Frost,
and Doris Gibson, forwards; Edna
Wagner and Eunice Mccullough,
Jumping centers; Vivian Haskell and
Ruth Thomas, running centers; Vi

NEW YORK.-Above we reproduce an Off
cial letter of the United States War Department
in which it informs manufacturers that survey
of plants, capable of being turned over imme-
dately to production for war, is going on now,
and that this is being done for supplies
needed in the event of an emergency The
name Of the company to which this letter was
sent to, we'll other distinguishing marks,
have been omitted.
In this way does the war department admit
that it is rapidly preparing for war. The War
Department not only sent letters to every plant
in the country that in any way could be used
for war purposes but sends out officers person.
ally to inspect these plants and line them UP
for the coming war.

gle. One of the immediate tasks is to mobilize
the masses for further struggle against evictions,
for social insurance, against high rents, and
especially against double rent in the Negro ter
ritories against the high cost of food, develop
ing this struggle leading to a Cook County
Conference on Unemployment, for social in
surance, against evictions and police terror,
which is being prepared by the Chicago City
Committee of the Council of Unemployed hav-
ing as its object to unite employed and unem-
ployed workers in a struggle for social insur-
ance
The Chicago working class which has many
revolutionary traditions, and which in the year
1886 was the center of the struggle for the 8-hor
day, once again assumes the most strategic
position in the struggle for social insurance and
for the rights of the Negro masses. The Com
munist Party has proven in the week of August
3rd to August 9th Tlat it is capable to give lead
ership to these struggles and is capable of or
ganizing masses and defeating the attempts of
the ruling class to destroy the movement of the
others. This movement can be consolidated
only if we clearly understand that we must
struggle against social fascism, the leadership
OF the Chicago Federation of Labor and the So
cialist party, the Republican nd Democratic
parties, in such manner that the role of these
agents of the bosses will be exposed before the
entire working class in Chicago and through
out the country They already stand exposed
to the large masses of workers. This must be
done in the broadesc possible manner and con-
Solldated organizationally, the unemployed coun-
ellis establish branches in every working
class neighborhood and the movement must en-
brace every working-class organization winning
the workers away fom the influence of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor, Socialist party, Negro
misleaderS, Republican and Democratic parties
and by building mass Communist Party.

THE time is at hand when the most serious
attention must be given to the building of
the Workers International Relief into a mass
organization. The need for such an organiza-
ton is now SO plain that all should see it. 1t
must be conceded that the systematic building
past. In consequence, when strikes develop we
are placed at great disadvantage because there
is no established relief organization at hand.
This weakness must be overcome without delay.
We may now look forward with perspective
of increasing strikes on a mass scale. The
miners strike and the strikes in the textile in
dustry are only forecast of what is to come.
The workers wages are being slashed in prac-
ticaly every industry and their conditions are
being made worse. Anyone who has even the
slightest contact with the masses and under
stands what they are thinking Of realizes that
the workers not going to submit passively
to this increased exploitation and impoverish-
ment Strikes are in prospect-strikes in many
industries. Militant mass struggles.
If we thus foresee a developing strike wave
we must at the same time see the need for
relief organization and the systematic collec-
ton of strike funds and supplies. There seems
to be a notion current that all strikes in the
present period are short and sharp, and that
no relief is necessary Often this idea is more
or less clearly expressed by word or action
But it is incorrect. Even if the tendency is to-
wards shorter and more bitterly fought strikes
nevertheless, in the strikes that we now face,
