The Battle Royal Is On for the Democratic Nom
alton for CONGRESSMAN for the End District

The Battle Royal Is On for the Democratic Nom
alton for Congressman for the End District
The battle royal is on for the Democratic
nomination for Congress Of the End district, be-
tween the Omaha World Herald, Nebraska's larg
est metropolitan paper and the unorganized O.
maha and Douglas County weekly newspapers.
The Herald has taken as their candidate, Charles
F. MCLAUGHLIN, and the Omaha Douglas County
weeklies have taken for their candidate, Il. Il.
Harper, the real author of the Federal Housing
Bill which has become a law.
"Wednesday A. M. the battle royal will come
to an end and Omaha's future political office
seekers will be able to settle once for always as to
whether the World Herald is the power behind
the throne or the Omaha and Douglas County
weeklies are the power behind the throne.
Tt is to be wondered if the Weeklies win the
battle will H. H. Harper stand by the WeekllesI
that nominated him or will he do as the average
politician does-drop the maker and seek the en-
emies camp. If past political history means any
thing this will mean his defeat in the November
election. If hard work and contact will win a
campaign, it is said by many Of Mr.. Harper'sI
friends, that he stands out paramount for the
Democratic nomination for Congressman of the
Second district.
Mr.. Harper has worked every section OF
the second district to a perfection and his cool
collected disposition has made him many TRENDS

matters not what the results are on Tuesdays
primary. His contact and new acquaintance
will be worth the price he has paid in this cam
paign, for his future political battles. 1t is pre-
dicted that he has actually met and shaken the
hands of IS percent of the Negro registered Dem
o.cantic voters Mr.. Harper wishes to express
through the columns Of the Omaha Guide, his ap-
probation for the way the Negro Democrats
have received him in his campaign for Congress-
man for the Second district of Nebraska.
Watch for Tuesdays results as to who can put
a candidate over, the weeklies or the daily.

given in a dispatch from Khabarovsk,
Siberia.
While sailing up the Amur near
the mouth Of the Bijan River, the
Khabarovsk dispatch said, the boat
approached the Soviet shore and
persons aboard began openly taking
photographs of the Russian bank
and border guard posts.
When the vessel failed to obey
Soviet guards signals to halt, the
guards fired three blank shots as a
warning.
The dispatch said the steamer con-
tinued to sail along the Soviet shore
until 1t encountered another guard
post where it was also signaled to
halt.
When these signals were ignored,
the guards directed several rifle shots
in the air above the stack Of the
steamer, which then veered off the

BY a Worker Correspondent

ST. LOUIS, Mo. - We are going
through a bitter struggle in this city
against the strong foothold of the A.
F. of L. in this packing house, the In
dependent Packing Co.
The A. F. Of L. began its drive in
August, and at the time they had the
clearinghouse workers organized
about 80 per cent. Since then the
number has decreased to about so
per cent. The workers argue that all
their promises on actions are con-
fined within the four walls of their
union hall. Nothing ever becomes Of
the A. F. Of L. threats against the
bosses.
Other causes for the workers turn
ing away from the A. F. of L. takers
were:
The selIouts of other strikes in this
city in other industries especially the
needle trades.
Failure on the part of the A. F. of
L. oficiaIdom to act seriously in the
struggle to reinstate workers fred for
union activities.
Lit 1llAUoJItd1 OlllOll exposing
these Black Birds to the workers.
While some workers called for
strike action as far back as September
when we were fully organized, the A.
F. of L. officials openly stated that
the A. F. of L. is strictly against any
strike and this form of action only to
be taken as a last resort" Their
method is arbitration.
Strike Postponed
Can the A. F. of L. tell us workers
what they have won for the organ
lied labor of st. Louis through this
method? Workers assembled at the
last Union meeting demanded that a
strike vote be taken, disregarding the
objection of the officials. The result
was that strike vote was taken and
the decision was to strike. But in
stead Of letting the workers decide
when to strike, the officials demanded
