without the police privileges which

The welt am Montag" points
out that the fascists aim at organ

to break strikes at need, and de-
clares that this would in all prob

A Forced Labor Colony

THE bourgeois democratic "Welt
am Montag" in Berlin publishes
two confidential fascist documents
showing that the fascist organiza-
tons are hurriedly preparing to
take leading role as warders in
the compulsory labor service scheme
which the reaction hopes the pres
ent Won Papen government will
carry out. The first document in
structs the members of the fascist
organizations to support the pre-
paratory work for the introduction
of a compulsory labor service
scheme in every possible way and
in particular to organize a skeleton
organization of suitable elements
to take charge of the labor squads.
These suitable" elements are to
be taken chiefly from among the
members of the prohibited" storm
attachments. The fascist organi-
cations are also instructed to re-
port suitable buildings for the hous-
ing Of the labor squads.
The second document supple
ments the first and gives details

While coal production drops, cop
per mines are closing in the west.
The Magma Copper Co. is closing
its mines and smelter on July /.
The mines may be re-opened in
October, but the smelter will be
closed for six months or longer.
At the same time the Nevada Con-
solidated Copper Co. announces
new variation on the "stagger" plan
OF distributing unemployment. It
is closing its works in Nevada for
six weeks, but continuing 20 per
cent operation in Arizona and New
Mexico. The announcement i'm
plies that later the Nevada works
will open for 20 per cent operation
and the others will take their turn
at complete unemployment. Utah
Copper Co. has closed down all OPP
erations for at least five weeks.
Production had previously been cut
to only 7 per cent of capacity.
Wages are being cut as the mines

Armed Intervention in China
By BURCK

Intervention against the Chinese
Revolution is proceeding hand in
hand with the monstrous war
provocations against the Soviet
Union.
Two recent pamphlets published
by International Publishers give
graphic picture of the growth of
the Soviet Power in China and of
the robber aims of world imperial
ism against China and the Soviet
Union. The pamphlets are War
in China" by Ray Stewart, and
Soviet China" by R. Doonping
and M. James. Every worker should
rally to the worldwide revolution
airy struggle against imperialist
war, for the defense of the Chi
nese people, the Chinese Soviets
and the Soviet Union. The present
imperialist war in the Far East,
the reactionary drive of the i'm
perialists for armed Intervention
against the Soviet Union are aimed
at the entire world working class.
Dying capitalism is attempting to
win another lease on life at the
expense of the life-blood of the
toiling masses, at the expense of
the destruction of working class
gains in Soviet China, of destruc-
ton of triumphant Socialist con-
struction in the Soviet Union, and
at the expense of the further en-
slavement of the colonial peoples
and the working-class in the i'm
perialist countries.
Workers! Defend the Chinese
People! Defend the Soviet Union!
Stop the production and shipment
of arms against China and the
Soviet Union!

OPERATORS IDEA.
FOR UNIONS

AT hearings on the Davis-Kelly
"A bill, one Indiana operator, R. H.
Sherwood, explained the labor re-
lations he would like to see set up
in the coal industry.
Labor organizations and opera
tors associations should be required
to incorporate and be equally SUBJ
ject to the laws of contract.
1.-THE Commission proposed I'M
der the Davis-Kelly bill for regu-
lating coaD should be required to
set up a tribunal similar to the
Railway Labor Board, to settle dis
putes; and strikes and lockouts
should be subject to heavy penal
ties.
1.-THE Commission should require
the labor organizations to take out
a license as well as the operators,
and the conditions of granting such
license would be the perfecting of
certain reforms of internal organ
ization, which would go far to do
away with the worst faults of mine
labor organizations, as organized at
present"

By VIM E. MCKINNEY

By VIM E. MCMENNEY Secretary, American Bridge League In yesterdays article I showed you a hand containing 9 biddable suit and three high card tricks, but one that should not be opened first or second hand. There are several three high card trick hands which must be passed in these positions Fox example the following:
 Spadcs-A-7-5-2
 Hearts-A-K-4
 DiamOnds-5-3-2
 Cluhs-4-
 This hand does not contain Q biddable suit. The three. high card tricks are not distributed in three suits, nod does the hand contain any tenace position, therefore it cannot be opened with one no trump and must be passed.
 Spadcs-A-Q-5-2
 Hearts-A.Q-5-4
 DiamOnds-5-3 Clubs-4-3-2
 Above is another three high card trick hand. In looking this hand over we find that it not only contains the required number of high card tricks, but also two bid- dable suits.
 If we open with one spade and partner bids one on trump, what can we do? We cannot re-bid spades as we have only four card suit. However, if necessary, we could bid hearts.
 Personally, the writer would pass this hand as I do not like to show two suit hands when all of the strength is concentrated in the two suits and both of them are four card suits.
 Summing this up, we find here
