liked the freckles. There is
practically nothing we like bet

HENDERSON TRIES
TO SCREEN ARMS
RACE BY CONFAB
Returns from Visit to
Fascist Hitler,
and Others

LONDON, July 25.-Arthur Hen
derson former socialist leader who
has been visiting Hitler and other
rulers of Europe on behalf of the
British bosses, has returned to Lon
don to revive faith in the disarma-
ment conference.
With ornaments increasing at a
furious pace, Henderson declared to-
day that he hoped to obtain a con-
ference that would actually reduce
ornaments.
The complete flop of the London
Economic Conference and the result
ing sharp conflicts of the irnperialists
which intensified ornaments has
brought the question of war so
clearly to the forefront, that Hen
derson has been straining himself to
revitalize the maneuvres of disar-
mament conferences to cover up the
rush to war.
The hypocricy of his new promises
is effectively smashed by the acute
armament race of Japan and the
F, United States, as well as the rapid
arming of Hitler, Mussolini, France
and Britain.

EUROPE'S COPS
TO MEET in i. S.
Will Discuss Ways to
Attack Workers

NEW YORK, July 25.-Eight Eu-
rope police chiefs arrived in New
York yesterday on their way to an
international conference of police
chiefs in Chicago, July 81, %, 80.
The purpose OF the conference, which
is an annual affair, is to develop
cooperation between police depart
ments throughout the world.
An indication of what will be one
of the chief problems the policemen
will discuss was given by Chief Rod
erick Ross of Glasgow, and Com
missioner F1orent E. Louwage, of
Brussels.
Both said most Of their problems
we're due to the crisis. 1.-THE dole
has STAYED off revolution" said
Ross, but he regretted that the I'M
employed were given money. ct
would have been better to give them
food,' he said. "The unemployed
should have been made to work for
their dole. Most of the roads in
Britain need widening. We should
put the unemployed to work on
them. OF course the white collar
workers would not be as efficient
as the laborers, but at least they
would earn something instead of
having money given to them"

FRANCE SEXES
CHINESE ISLANDS
Warships Grab Terri
tory in China Sea

PARIS, July 25.-One more step in
the dismemberment of China by the
imperialist powers was taken by
France today when French warships
seized six groups of islands in the
South China Sea, midway between
Indo-China and the Philippine Is
lands.
The French Foreign Office an
nounced that a French naval force
had occupied the islands, which are
inhabited by Chinese turtle fishers,
and that hereafter they will belong
under French sovereignty.
The islands include Sprally Island
Caye DAmboine Islet, Itu-Aba Islet,
the Twin Islands group, Loaito Islet
and Thitu Island.
While Japan is extending its con-
quest of China in the north, France
has been extending its control over
portions of Southern China, and this
seizure of Chinese island territory is
the most recent advance of French
imperialism.

MADRID, July 25.-On the same
day that Minister Of Labor Largo
Cabellero, announced at mass meet
ing here that the Spanish socialists
were preparing to establish a dicta-
torship for the purpose Of fighting
fascism," the government revealed its
true plans for the fascination OF the
country by closing all Syndicalist and
Anarchist centers, forbidding all Com
munist meetings, and arresting many
working class leaders.
More than 500 prisoners were taken
in a series of raids throughout Spain.
The government said they were in
tended to prevent coup d'etat by
reactionaries, but along with few
priests and professional men, all the
syndicalist leaders were arrested. In
Madrid 125 persons were arrested yes
terday.
The raids followed an immense
demonstration of workers in Madrid
on Saturday, when thousands march
ed through the streets singing the
"Internationale" and demanding the
resignation of Premier Azana. The
demonstration was broken up by po-
lice reserves.
