until way past June 1885, when the MIRA. expires!
And then there will be still another appeal"
Meanwhile the steel workers will be getting it
in the neck from the Weirton Steel Company. At
least that is the Roosevelt plan.
THE Weirton Steel decision, coming as it does
after the Minneapolis time" sellout, should
be a timely warning to the strikers at Toledo,
particularly to watch like hawks against this N.RA
arbitration trap. The NRA arbitration" is
poison for the workers. 1t hog-ties them so that
their enemies can stall for time and get over
str1kebreaking blows.
Not in the Roosevelt Wall Street cOurts-but
right out the picket line! That's where the
decisions wages and unions must be made.
Mass power, picket lines strike action that's the
language the employers will listen to. And no
other.
Let the strikers themselves decide on what
terms they shall go back to work. Once it gets
into the hands of the Courts and the NR.A.

ton decision proves that to the hilt.

tOrship, particularly in recent
times, a number of successes of
enormous International signifi-
canoe.
"The Soviet Union is able to
pursue a consistent peace policy
because the proletariat over an
enormous territory has abolished
all the causes that led to imperial
ist wars. In the Soviet Union
there is no lack of markets; the
Soviet union does not have to
hunt for markets.
"The dictatorship Of the proleta-
riat, which represents the vital in
terests of the overwhelming ma
jority Of the population Of the
country, is not threatened from
within and therefore does not
have to seek safety in wars.
The might of the Soviet Union
has rapidly grown and is continu-
ing to grow day after day. Such
and only such country can pur-
sue a firm and consistent peace
policy"
Litvinoff, in this stage of i'm
perialist antagonisms, on the eve OF
new imperialist world war, points
out it is no longer a question only
of disarmament, but the "guaran-
teeing" of peace. The whole econ
omy of the capitalist powers has
been transformed to a war base
and the various capitalist proposals
for disarmament, such as those Of
the U. S. Ambassador at-large, Nor
man H. Davis, are merely the at
tempts to reshuffle the types of arms
best suited to the needs of the va
rious imperialist bandits.
Wall Streets Proposals
Contrasted to the Clear, bold pro-
posals of the Soviet Union, were the
vague, deliberately confused anc
confusing declarations OF Norman
H. Davis, for the Roosevelt govern
ment.

The harvest festival at St Pat rick's Lyseum will be brought to d close this evening with an old fashioned barn dance. The hop has been arranged by the Cleaners organization. There will be severa. prize awards made to those who participate in the general activi- tics.
 The festival has been running for the past two nights and large crowds have been in attendance each night. However, it is expected that the gala attraction this eve ming will bring out folks from every section of the city. Last night little Bobby Scannell played his snare drum and offered sev- erGl march selections that had everyone in the hall beating time with their fete. The youngster sur prised the gathering with his abil- itv and again later in the program when he returned to the stage and presented a tap, dance. Both fea- lures were highly pleasing and amusing entertainment. Kenneth Burns was we'll received when he offered a Russian folk dance to music that had an atmosphere of the Volga region. William Elliott proceed the hand is quicker than the eye. His act was made up of several unusual feats of magic. All of these entertainers and many moro will be included on the final program tonight. Modern dancing will also occupy an important place on the bill with music being pro- vided by Connie Bracken's Musical Maids.
