PARIS. Aug. 15.-(UP(-The
British proposal to preserve peace
in East Africa was submitted to-
day to Italy and a reply from
Premier Mussolini is hoped for
tomorrow.
Anthony Eden, chief British
delegate in the French-British-
Italian conference scheduled for
tomorrow. outlined the plan to
Premier Laval. The plan is au-
thoritatively reported to include
important economic conc ssions
with a proposal that Italy be CIV
en- the right to colonize Ethiopian
uplands and that sea outlet be
provided for Ethiopia.
PARIS, Aug. 49, (UP) -
France and Britain, reviving their
united front, yesterday devised
new formula for dealing with the
Italo- Ethiopian conflict. If it is
feJecIeu by Rome ana war breaks
out in East Africa they will go
before the League of Nations
council in September and place
full responsibility for hostilities
on Italy.
1t is proposed, in addition to
economic concessions, to grant
Italy colonizing rights in rich but
thinly inhabited territories in up
per Ethiopia. They would placate
Ethiopia by granting her an out
let to the sea in accordance with
Eden's earlier suggestions.
Discussing the Anglo-French
conversations an official spokes-
man said:
"The meetings about to take
place offer the last chance of Sc
curing a peaceful solution of the
Italo- Ethiopian conflict until the
League of Nations council session
on September 4. If no solution is
reached here the council must
take cognizance of it's obligations
under the league covenant"

GENEVA, Aug. 15.-(UP)-
Japan's right to retain economic
privileges of a League Of Nations
member, after her resignation
from Geneva was challenged for
the first time yesterday.
The leagues mandates commits
sion asked Britain why she allows
japanese products to enter Pales-
tine, over which London holds a
league mandate, on an equal foot

members.
Britain replied the Anglo-Jap-
anese commercial treaty of 1911
prevented Palestine from acting
against Japanese goods although
by withdrawing from the league
Japan theoretically lost the equal
rights guaranteed all league mem
bers by the mandates system.
The commission retorted that
despite the Anglo-Japanese treaty
Britain applied quotas against
japanese goods in her colonies,
especially In West Africa. 1t ask
ed whether similar measures
could be taken in Palestine.
Minutes of the commission
showed two efforts to learn why
Britain, as the mandatory power,
permitted the import of Japanese
textiles and other products in
Palestine.

the commission reported CURLY to

IRVINGTON ON HUDSON, N.
Y, Aug. 15.-(UP)-John and
Franklin Roosevelt, Jr., those
hasty young huskies from Har-
ward, appeared last night to have
embarked on a spirited race for
the speed-arrest championship of
the nations first family.
With seven violations already
chalked up against him in three
or four states, Junior was way in
the lead until young John, the
presidents youngest son, stepped
into the picture here yesterday.
He entered the lists under a
charge of driving Sd miles an
hour, but he clearly showed that
he has profited no end by some
of the experiences of his next
oldest brother.
John virtually "beat the rap"
with just a $40 forfeiture and
also got off without showing in
court, for having paid careful at
tention to the explanation given

Liebknecht and Luxembourg

IN few days, American workers and
their sons and daughters will commemo-
rate the sixteenth anniversary of the death
Of two revolutionary heroes who died at
the hands of capitalist murderers.
Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxembourg
boldly called upon the working class youth
to give battle to capitalist militarism and
imperialist war
Though they did not see the Bolshevik
path to the seizure of power as clearly as
did Lenin, they were revolutionists who
were rapidly moving toward Bolshevism
when murderers' bullets cut them down.
Liebknecht's name is especially glorious
for his work in organizing the youth for
working class revolution. Together with
Luxembourg, he electrified the world with
his challenge to the Kaiser militarists at
moment when the German Social-Democ-
racy supported the war;
Today, we cannot forget that it was at
the instigation of the Socialist leaders,
Noske, Scheidemann and Ebert, that these
two were shot down.
Let the American workers honor their
memory and carry forward their work.

Unity With ReactionarieS

THE three elected Socialist Senators in
Connecticut have begun their career in
typical style.
They have formed coalition with re-
dictionary Republicans against equally re-
dictionary Democrats.
They justify this on the ground that if
they had not done this, they would be
charged with blocking the business of
the Legislature.
They also bring forth the ingenious ar
gument that their action will prevent
conflicts between a Democratic Senate"
and Republican House." which would
hinder the adoption of labor legislation.
But who ever heard of either the Re
publican or Democratic parties adopting
labor legislation?
These are arguments Of people who are
supposed to be waging class struggle
against the capitalists and their legisa-
tive representatives
Communists, as revolutionary repre-
sentatives of the working class, would have
acted differently
Far from shedding tears over the wor-
ries of the capitalist legislators, they
would have deliberately seized on this
deadlock between the capitalist legislators
to win concessions for the working class!
AS it is the Socialist Senators gave in
to the capitalists and received nothing in
return for the workers,

LaGuardia's First Year

QPEAKING over a radio network of
y twenty-six broadcasting stations Thurs
day night, Mayor LaGuardia boosted of
the achievements" of his administration.
In todays Daily Worker we begin a
more detailed examination of these
achievements" Here it is essential to
make one basic point:
Fusion has carried out the policies of
the bankers at the expense Of the masses
of the city.
The bankers have been paid every nickle
on their loans to the city.
The sales tax was put over on the people
in order to meet the bankers demands for
S180,000,000 for "debt service" that is,
principal and interest to the bankers.
The sales tax has meant an actual slash
in relief for the approximately 1,250,000
people who depend on relief for their ex-
istence
The Mayor admits "a most rigid, cruel
and painful economy" To whom, though,
has this economy been cruel? Not to the
bankers or high-salaried political APP
pointees!
i has been rigid and cruel' to the mu-
niciDal employees in the low-wage brackets.
to the teachers, the fremen, the tenement
house inspectors. It has been cruel to the
masses, who need the social services ex-
tended by these departments.
That, in a nutshell, is Mayor La Guar
dia's achievements"

Mass Arrests

NEW YORK police swooped down and
Aiseized 107 pickets in the strike at the
Majestic Metal Company.
This is how LaGuardia's police treat
workers fighting for better conditions for
themselves and their families.
LaGuardia is showing himself every
day as one of the most loyal servants of
the employers and Wall Street banks the
city has ever seen.
He tries to disguise his strike-breaking
activities with smooth talk.
But the striking workers seized Thurs
day have learned to know Mr.. La Gaurdia.
Thousands more will learn the same les
son as they struggle for improved living
conditions

An Ally for Hearst

FEELING, perhaps, that Hearst was not
doing sufficiently effective job in his
anti-Soviet campaign, the Rand School of
Social Science has imported aid for him.
1t has just arranged lecture tour for
a certain lady called Madam Tatiana
Tchernovina.
Who is this lady that the Socialist Party
Rand School should import her from her
quiet home abroad?
She is the author of one of the most
poisonous, lying, and hate-flled books
against the Soviet Unionl
And she is already justifying interven-
ton by slandering the Workers Father
land, the dictatorship of the proletariat. as
"fascism, ultra-fascism, super-fascism of
a type that exists neither in Italy, Ger
many, Hungary nor Turkey"
She is already justifying bIoodshed,
murder, Intervention, against the Soviet
Union with this vile talk She even has
good word to say for Nikolaev, murderer
of Comrade Kirov
Is it not clear how this ties up with the
sinister anti-Communist campaign of
Hearst? Does not Hearst talk the same
language?
The Rand Schools White Guard lady
will make a good ally for Hearst. He will
appreciate her
But what will the Socialist workers say?

Murderers of Kirov We're Dregs
OF the Cesspool of Reaction
by Burck

was achieved as result OF that
policy which created the firm,
theological basis for the tremendous
new constructions, for the gigantic
work which gave the country ten
million tons of pig iron. Therefore,
these ten million tons of pig iron
are a symbol not only of the growth
of Socialist industrialization not
only of the growth of that force
which transformed the individual
peasant farm into Socialist agricul-
ture, a symbol not only of the in
crease in the defensive power of
the country, but also brilliant ex-
ample of the victory of the feminist
Party under the leadership of Stain.
In these ten million tons of pig iron
there is expressed that growing
force, which is called by history to
build up the first State of the toll
ers, the first land of Socialism,
which is called upon to be the lead
er Of humanity in It's struggle for
its emancipation from the letters of
capitalism. Ten million tons of pig
iron produced by Socialist industry
are a symbol of the general ten
denotes of development
Tore the Mask from Groups
In face of these ten million tons
of pig iron what have the miserable
remnants of the zinovievist and
Trotzkyist opposition, the Right op-
position, and all oppositional middle
groups to show? All oppositional
groups, expressed in one form or
another, behind one mask or an
other, the pressure of the petty
bourgeois sections of the population
of the U. S. S. r. upon the pro-
letriat.
The Party tore the mask from all
oppositicnal groupings; the Party
defeated them in the theological
sphere; the Party flung them out
of the ranks of the working class
and reduced them to the level of
small groupings behind which there
are no sections o. workers whatever.
Already at the time of the First
FiveYea Plan the card on which
all oppositional groups had put their
stakes was completely outtrumped.
All the sound elements with ro-
bust faith in the living forces of the
proletariat enthusiastically rallied
round the feminist Central Commit
tee and realized that the Party, led
by Stain, is lsading Socialism to
triumph. The defeated opposition
split uD into various groups. These
clements, which were recruited from
the ranks of honest prolesarian
revolutionaries who had temporarily
deviated from the correct path, re-
turned to the Party in order to make
good bystheir honest work their po-
litical mistakes, which developed
into crimes against the proletarian
State, against the interests of inter
national Socialism
