There is little to differentiate the men who will hold office in the Labor Party government from the Liberal crowd —either in training or viewpoint with one or two exceptions. MacDonald himself, was first a school-teacher before he became private secretary to Sir Campbell-Bannerman, premier in the Liberal government that preceded the Lloyd George coalition. He is considered one of the best parlia- mentarians in England and only his pacifism during the war contrasts him with men of the Asquith type. Lord Baldane, slated for minister of education, is a great barrister and is considered one of the world author- ities on philosophical subjects. Webb As Sociologist. Sydney Webb, is a university lec- turer, a voluminous writer on sociolo- gy and welfare work. His recent book, “The Decay of Capitalist Civil- ization,” bas attracted much atten- tion. It is a scathing analysis of modern capitalism but its conclusions are not such as to alarm the benefi- ciaries of special privilege. Phillip Snowden, who is to have the portfolio of chancellor of the ex- chequer, is a former employe of the revenue department and conceded to be an authority of financial questions. Lord Ponsonby and Colonel Wedge- wood are typical liberals. Ponsonby was formerly a page at St. James; his place in the new cabinet will probably be that of secretary for In- dian affairs. The post that Colonel Wedgnewod will fill has not been ified, but his appointment is cer- . Lord Parmour will be lord chancellor. He is a brother-in-law of Sydney Webb, a theological au- thority and solicitor for the Church of England. i Of the trades union wing of the Labor Party there will be in the! government, J. H.

The speakers were William Z. F ‘wspaper which will wage an agressive list government in behalf of the work- ‘oster, Benjamin Gitlow, editor of the Freiheit, our Communist Jewish newspaper, Ludwig Lore. editor of the New Yorker Volkszeitung our Communist German newspaper, and Julia Stuart Poyntz, who was chairman. The celebration had a festive air about it because the program in- cluded music, supplied by Frances Geddes, soprano singer; Joseph Fuchs, concert-violinist; and Austin Gordon, pianist. Benjamin Gitlow auctioned off the first copy of the Daily Worker which was sold to the highest bidder for $25. The second copy brought $15, the third $10 and the fourth $5. Then copies were sold at $2 and at $1 each, which raised the sale to several hundred dollars all for the benefit of the DAILY WORKER. In addition, bonds for the paper were bought by various unions and other organiza- tions: $100 by the Bakers’ Union No. 8, Amalgamated Food Workers, and $50 each from the Williamsport and Bronx branches. Altogether the meeting was one of the most enthusiastic ever held. Those present at the celebration showed that they realized what great sig- nificance a daily organ of the Workers Party in the English language has for the class conscious lapor movement of America, and they received with great enthusiasm the remarks of the speakers who spoke about this. William Z, Foster was received with the greatest ovation and with a strong applause. The crowd rose spontaneously and sang the Inter- national. Comrade Foster said that the per- secution of radicals by the Depart- ment of Justice does not weaken but strengthens the Workers Party and the radical labor movement. He then spoke very impressively of the power of the press here and in all other countries, and showed how the Soviet government carried on the work of educating the masses through the spoken and written word. “The youth,” said Foster, “was up on harmful spiritual nourishment here, as well as every- Party, one of its foremost parlia-| sia, and it is no easy task to drive mentarians, J.

The BROMLEY BALKS AT HALTING BIG RAILROAD STRIKE Union Official Is Not Interested in Politics (Special to The Daily Worker) LONDON.—Only a last minute surrender by the railway companies will avert the strike of the firemen and enginemen called to prevent pro- posed wage reductions being enforced. The union executive committee has delivered its final answer to the rail- way companies thru the officials of the British Trades Union Congress and it promises a withdrawal of the strike order only if the wage-cuts are postponed, [ae Thoms, representative of the National Union of Railwaymen, which includes about 20 per cert of the en- ginemen and firemen, involved by the threatened strike, took part in the dis- cussions.

If that is so, we must protest his expulsion or follow the same course,’ declared Anton Ja- hannesen, member of the Executive Board of the Chicago Federation of Labor, during the discussion on a resolution introduced by Painters’ Lo- cal Union, No, 275, condemning the action of the Portland convention in expelling Dunne. Local 275 passed a resolution which was published in the DAILY WORKER, condemning the action of their international delegates in ‘vot- ing for the unseating of Dunne and the treatment accorded the subject in the union jorunal. Edward N, Nockels, secretary of the federation, immediately on the reading of the resolution and com- munication that accompanied it, moved that the request contained in the communication be complied with. Delegate Christian M. Madsen, of the painters, stated that he was a delegate from the painters to the Portland convention and that his name was signed to the report of the delegates published in the union journal, which com¥ended the ex- pulsion of Dunne and said that all delegates who had voted against his expulsion should have been expelled themselves. He said this was pub- lished without his knowledge or con- sent and that he had written to the Painters’ Journal a letter intended for publication in which he said his name had not been used. Delegates Emil Arnold and Arne Swabeck, of the painters’ union,,also spoke condemning the expulsion of mne. Delegate Johannsen made a speech that seemed to express the sentiments of the majority of the delegates. “Either we are with the mt ruling family of the American @Ped- eration of Labor, or we ars not. If we are we should do the sam. All local unions should do the same as we do; either protest the expulsion of a man because of his. political views or expel all the members of what would happen to the labor their locals who are Communists. It would at least be interesting to see what would happen to the labor movement if this were done,” de- clared Johannsen. Daily or Weekly?

North Ave. Miss Bates, who is a clerk and attended a “school” run by the Popular Motion Pictures Pro- ducing Company in the evening, ‘went to the school in answer to an ad she saw in one of the Chicago papers. “Seores and scores of girls at- tended classes there,” she said. “TI paid $10 registration fee. ct une girls paid more. ‘The cost a course of acting was $40 or $50. The instruction consisted of reading from a book in the presence of the class. The instructor would tell us how we should express what we read. Then we were given long talks on acting and the pils were told to discuss them, e class would break up and talk. “Some of the girls were given parts as extras in productions. To get a part it seemed necessary to pay at least $200. After going to the classes for several weeks and learning nothing I quit, There seemed to be a constant flow of peo- ple in and out of the classes. Old students would drop out and new ones come in. All of them must have paid at least $10, We were told all sorts of things about what was going to be done. Most of the girls were girls like myself who’ worked for a living and out of their wages managed to pay for instruc- tion. that didn’t amount to anything. “We wanted to do something be- side work all our lives and this school took our money and gave us nothing. During the day there were other classes attended by girls from poor families, They were sent by their parents, who wanted them to amount to something. All these movie, schools are the same. “There were supposed to be wild parties given by the instructors. I didn’t see any. The girls who at- tended didn’t even get that much from the school.

The readers of the Volkszeitung, the German comrades, must help to build up the DAILY WORKER; it is their duty to Go so, for they must realize that a daily revolutionary newspaper in the language of the country is highly necessary in the class struggle of this country. “We must,” the speaker said, “have the American wage workers on our side before we can-carry out success- fully the fight for liberation of the working class.” Comrade Lore went on to speak of the relief work for the uffering workers of Germany. He spoke of the measures that must be taken to combat the government in its plans to pass exception laws against. foreigners. He also de- nounced Secretary of State Hughes for blocking the recognition of Soviet Russia.

Mr. Oberg might be there yet, ac- cording to a statement made by Mr, Bernard Anderson, Swedish vice- consul but for the release on bond of one of the detective iureau prisoners who notified the Swedish consul of Mr. Oberg’s plight. Mr. Hugo Oberg’s arrest and treat- ment will be taken up with Mayor Dever and Chief Collins by the Swed- ish Consulate declared Mr. Anderson to the DAILY WORKER yesterday. Aside from the fact that no citizen should expect such treatment from the police International Law grants certain privileges to iepresentatives of foreign goveinments which were entirely ignored by Mr. Grady. The story told by Mr. Anderson is as follows: “Mr. Cberg aftcr leaving tke Drake Hotel on Thursday evening, where he attended a banquet visited several South Side cafes on sight- seeing trips. Lieutenant Michael Grady arrested him tho there was no raid, and asked him who he was. Mr. Oberg showed his credentials es Swedish chancellor. This caused Mr. Grady to indulge in loud guffaws end made facetious retorts. When asked what he was arrested for Grady said “for murder,” and laughed. Mr. Oberg was not in a hilarious mood, He was then taken to the detective bureau and packed in with 75 other prisoners in the filthiest police base- ment in the United States, There are five cells in this place, each one with an ill smelling toilet, and two planks to sleep on. The boa cages of each cell 1s about eight people, but from 15 to 20 are packed in like sardines at times. Mr. Oberg was taken out for “show- up” with every roll call and asked the usual humiliating questions that are put to hardened criminals.

Fitz- patrick asked for a vote on a motion to “receive, file, and spread on the minutes the communivcaticn from the painters’ union.” Altho that was no! the motion made by Nockels it was voted on and carried without pro- test. M. J. Greer, representing the Amalgamated Iron and Steel Work- ers, spoke on behalf of the striking stee] workers in Wheeling, W. Va. He told of the strike of steel work- ers against the Wheeling Iron and Steel Co., which has been on since July 1921. He was given credentials from the Federation authorizing him to go before local unions to so- licit funds for the strikers, A letter of thanks was read from, the Milk Producers’ Association com- mending it for their help in winning their strike against the milk distrib- utors. The aid of the Federation was promised the postal clerks in their fight for better wages and working conditions, New Farm Bank’ Failures Alarm Coolidge Aides « to The Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, D. C.—Continued bank failures in formerly prosperous agricultural sections is alarming, fed- eral reserve bank officials said here, and has necessitated emergency mea- sures on the part of the War Finance corporation. A flood of telegrams and letters to members of congress and senators sent by enraged farmers victimized by bank failures, has resulted in a hasty conference “being called for Chicago in which the controller of the currency, two members of the federal reserve board, the head of py western bankers will partici- pate.

Com- mander Robert Bartlett today told the House Naval Committee he thought should be done with the giant airship. : The proposed flight, Denby said, is a serious expedition and not “aero- nautical acrobatics,” the objects are: 1—To discover and claim for America a vast unexplored continent believed by scientists to be in the arctic circle. 2.—To survey and map Alaska from the air. 3.—To hang up a new aerial rec- ord for America by making around the world flight by dirigible. u Denby revealed for the first time that it is the plan to have the Shen- andoah start on around the world flight immediately after completing the mapping of Alaska. From Spitz- bergen the dirigible would fly to Eng- lan¢ and on around the globe, Denby said Denby said the Polar flight should be undertaken this yedr, because next year will be “too late.” “Some other progressive power with the facilities will beat America to it and add to its possession an un- explored area of one million square miles that scientists believe lies just north of A’ ,” he said, “Whether that land is habitable or not, it would be the possession of the United States,” he said.
