FRENCH FAIL IN EFFORT TO BUY Offensive Is Impossible Without More Troops PARIS, France, August 6.—Unable to make any headway in capturing the RIff Republic from Abd-el-Krim and his soldiers, the French and Spa Ish governments are attempting ‘to buy Krim off with a huge sum of money, it is learned. The given by Primo de Ri envoys of Krim at Tetuan, while they offer peace only at the price of recog nition of the Spanish protectorate over the Riff, offer to make Krim the “emir” of that state and hint that he can have a huge sum of money if he will allow the European imperialists to enter his country. Krim, however, has already declared that he will accept no peace unless the independence of his country is ac-1 knowledged. Painleve ‘is anxious to make peace, as Marshall Petain, fresh from a trip thru Morocco, has told the premier that a large scale offensive against the Rifians is impossible unless more troops are sent from France. This Painleve fears to do, as it would mean mobilization of the re- servists, and would cause even greater dissatisfaction among the workers than now prevails. Abd-el-Krim’s forces, meanwhile, are active along a 200 mile front, and are threatening Ouezzan, and the main railway between Fez and Taza. —————__ For Rent: Front bed-room.

When he tries to get a sub for the DAILY WORKER it never creeps into his head that he can also sell the fellow a pamphlet on some subject. The other day, during lunch, when he got a dollar out of one of our gang for a sub to the DAILY WORKER I pitched in and pointed out that forsanother dime he could get a book to read. I talked about Browder’s “Unemployment” because this man just got lifs job after being without work for three months.

This letter sent in by a worker from the shop has the system that can make thousands of good propagandists in this country. Today the DAILY WORKER is selling thousands of books and pamphlets every week—but if more workers acted as this Ford worker has done in his shop the Communist movement in this country would double its size within a few months.

Milwaukee Printers Expose Scab Work Used by Socialists (Special to The Daily Worker) MILWAUKEE, August 5.—A trump card in the campaigt against union printers in Milwaukee is spiked by evidence that the open shoppers have been fraudulently substituting inferior Paper on contract work let by the school board. The evidence was col- j lected by officials of Typographical Union 23 and Milwaukee Allied Print- ing Trades Council and extends over a year. The trade unionists became suspi- cious when they found that union shops could never bid low enough on the school board work to get the jobs. It was then discovered that Radtke | Bros. & Kortsch, the successful bid- ders, habitually made up for the in- ferior speed and workmanship of their non-union employes by using cheaper paper than the specifications they had bid on called for. Contracts for the coming year are held up pending in- vestigation by the school board. The socialist administration has been letting work to scab concerns, dren. thanked dad for the ceived.
