The Czecho Slovakian government in’ its note says it is desirous of maintaining cordial relations with the Pope but that it considered the question of the national fete an in- ternal affair and not His Holiness’ business, This will mean a break with the pope as Rome is not willing to consider the matter a national affair.

The publication says that publica- tion was delayed on the matter, al- tho the Sunday Worker knew previ- ously of the incident, in order to al- low one of the chief actors of the story to be smuggled out of Bulgaria to France. The story is related as follows: After many difficulties one of the leaders of the Bulgarian ° working class, himself a journalist, came to the congress in the hope that by pass- ing @ resolution of protest against the white terror in Bulgaria the Second International would help to save some of the thousands, of Bulgarian workers now passing thru Zankov’s courts martial on their way to the scaffold. Mild Resolution. A resolution ‘was prepared, quite mild in tone,*appealing “to all the sane and democratic forces in Bul- garia to come together and give that unfortunate country the peace and security of life which it justly de- serves. Loebe, president of the German reichstag, signed the resolution, and induced Bauer of Austria and Breid- scheid, English, French and American delegates also signed the resolution. What happened next can best be described in the words of the Bul- garian journalist himself: “I asked Breidscheid if he could point out to me some other German delegates who were likely to sign. He took me to Mueller, the leader of the German party. Sakazoff's Feelings. “Mueller became red in the;face and shouting to Loebe and Breidscheid he demanded to know what right had they to sign without first submitting it to the ‘leaders of the delegation.’ He added: ‘We cannot support this; it will hurt Sakazoff’s feelings; he is against it!’ (Sakazoff was leader of the official jarian delegation.) “He was getting ready to tear the resolution up when J grabbed it away from him. This row attracted the at- tention of the presidium, and in a minute Adler came down from the tribune and took the resolution away from me, shouting: ‘This cannot go on; we are not going to take up any resolution, no matter how many lead- ers sign it.’ Then he called’ Bauér ‘aside and warned him against me and Bauer put the resolution in his pocket, prom- FIDLER STORE: Neuatt Near Clark Street ~ * PRACTICAL, APRON 5185.

F. of L. eyes would appear completely “Bolshevik”), publishes. an article showing that at the re- cent Marseilles congress of the Second (Socialist) International, Friedrich Adler, its most prominent leader, with others supporting him, condoned the white terror of the Zankov regime in Bulgaria, responsible for wholesale ful discussion with him that the reso- lution was given back. “I explained to the British delegates the cause of this scandal, and one of the most prominent leaders of the la- bor party said to me: “I am not sur- prised they are against this resolu- tion. These peop!» are not socialist at all,’ Disillusioned. “Afterwards just as I was approach- ing Leon Blum and Henderson to get their signatures, Adler again came up to me and with an agitated voice or- dered me to ‘stop interfering with the work of the congress,’ and almost showed me the door. “I left in disgust with a deep feel- ing of bitterness against the leaders of the Socialist international, who, just like their colleagues in Bulgaria, give their tacit approval and sanction to the murderlust which is being per- petrated upon. the Bulgarian people.” After the Bulgarian journalist had left an attempt was made to get the resolution discussed by congress, but without success. Sakazoff could have sent the mes- sage to Zankov: “All's clear. Carry on with the hangings.” Foreign Exchange.

The policeman said he warned Granetser that “the next time the flag passes you show respect by doff- ing your hat.” ‘The man made no reply. Lovett said he watched him and saw him repeat the offense, When brought before Magistrate Alfred E. Steers, in the Coney Island court, Granetzer was fined $25. Not having the monéy he was sent to Jail for ten days. “The basis for my sentence,” the magistrate said, “was that altho it is not a violation of any law for a per- son to refuse to uncover for the flag, wilfully causing a crowd to collect does constitute disorderly conduct, a punishable offense. “Granetzer was guilty of disorderly conduct when he refused to obey the sergeant’s admonition because by his refusal he created a disturbance, I told him that he should do the same in, our country as we would do if we were in hig.” RECENT PROGRESS IN RUSSIAN AGRICULTURE IS REPORTED BY SOCIETY FOR TECHNICAL AID NEW YORK, Sept. 28— The Central Bureau of thie'Society for Technical Russian Agricultural News.

The social-democratic party of Sweden is preparing for the home-coming of the prodigal son, Hoeglund, who has been traveling fast towards the right since he decided to break with the Communist International. According to an article published in the official organ of the Danish Com- munist Party, it is only a question of time when Hoeglund will make out his application to join the Swedish + section of the Second (Socialist) In- ternational. The question of his en- trance into the social-democratic party has for a long time been dis- cussed in the social-democratic as well as the capitalist press in Sweden, and statements have been given out by members of the executive com- mittee of Hneglund’s party. One of those members in an inter- view with the Norwegian Social De- mokraten stated, “That so far, there has been no conference on the mat- ter as one of the two parts naturally must take the first step and of course, Hoeglund must take back what he has said about the social-democrats in the past.” ‘When asked what stand Hoeglund takes toward the two trade union in- ternationals, the answer was, “We are fighting the Red International of La- bor Unions and have always been for the Amsterdam International. “We are also for participation in the labor bureau in Geneva, and in regards to the social-democratic gov- ernment, we take a position of loy- alty.” In an article in his official organ, Hoeglund proves that he is ready for the last step and thus proves his treachery to the working class. He offers to liquidate, providing that good terms can be agreed upon and writes further: “We do not need to pride ourselves on the past and we can easily confess, that we made a num- ber of mistakes which helped to make the struggle more bitter,” The social-democratic’ press is na- turally jubilant and states, “That the Hoeglund Communists have nothing else but the name Communists in common with the Moscow followers.” The social-democratic press goes still further and states, “That we shall be ready to forget the past since Hoeg- lund’s complete break with Bolshe- vism.” The official organ declares it- self satisfled that Hoeglund has made no demands which would change the program and principles of the social- democratic party. Rank and File Support Comintern. The members of the Hoeglund party however, are not willing to go back to the social-democratic party and are deserting and rejoining the Swedish section of the Comintern when they were unable to have a congress call- ed to make a decision in the matter. The membership remember well the declarations made by Hoeglund and company when the split took place. Hoeglund then resented the state- ments made by the Comintern that he was on the road back to the Sec- ond International. Now, the predic- tion has come true and the revolu- tionary elements that remained in his party will have received a real les- son and learned that the policy of swaying between the Comintern and the Second International eventually leads into the swamps of reformism and back to social-democracy. Already many branches have rejoin- ed the Swedish section of the Com- intern and when the proper arrange- ments have been finished and the bar- gain struck between the social-demo- crats and Hoeglund, it is certain, that the majority®of the members will not follow him but will follow the leader- ship of the Comintern and its Swedish section, The Swedish Communist Party has extended its influence among the masses since the exit of Hoeglund and now that he has thrown the mask aside completely and gone back where he belongs, it will mean more strength and influence for the Comintern’ among ‘the Swedish masses. LOTS OF OLD SCORES TO SETTLE THERE By H. C. F. (Woeker Correspondent.) It is in Palestine this happened. Under General Allenby, using Aus- tralian and Indian cavalry, English in- fantry and Egyptian laborers, the Brit- ish pushed the Turks across the Sinia desert thru the whole length of Pal- estine and away up north of Damas- cus. I was with a Canadian bridging com- pany sent out from France in the last months of the war to replace two rail- way bridges across the Yarmuk river near the Sea of Galilee. We were the technicians on the job and we had for the laboring part about 300 Egyp- tians. Over every 20 of these there was posted a native boss of their own race with a good leather whip and in charge of the company an English of- ficer. There was a lot of cement to car- ry out over the river on planks and the natives did this in baskets on their heads—hard dirty work. Every lit- tle while if a man didn’t step fast enuf—whish!
