It is generally sup-| posed, however, that these “facilities” are the terms under which the French officials are surrender before the overwhelming economic superiority of the United States. The new coolness of the French of- ficials towards the legion together with the election of Edward E. Spat-| ford of New York City as the latest “duce” of the American fascists, has taken most of the remaining life out of the last day of the legion conven- tion. The “veterans” whose gala trip to the French capital with its boycott by the French workers, its swindle of hotel rates by the legion higher-ups, and the hang-overs and} incipient disease symptoms from which so many of the 'legionnaires are suffering has proved a costly dis- appointment to most of the men.

Opposition Supports Treachery. “So far not only has opposition in the Russian Party not separated from the ultra-lefts in Germany who have finally split, but on the contrary many facts are aydilable as evidence of their reciprocity and solidarity with this group. “Whereas Masloy’s yellow boule- vard paper, ‘The Banner of Commu- nism’ follows the line of the opposi- tion in the All-Union Communist Party, which he admits is incompatible with the Party, the opposition still persists in its demand for the read- mission of their ultra-left partisans to the Communist International.

These disrupters. and sectarians must be shown their proper place,” Excluded Five Members. The presidium control commission of the Moscow Party organization has excluded from the Party five members of the opposition who by their factional activities tried to un- dermine the Party unity. Among those excluded are Pergamet and Furtycheff, employees of the Central Concessions Committee. Pergament at a secret factional meeting presented a new declaration which is an opposition platform and attempted to collect signatures, while Furtycheff figured as a reporter at a secret meeting giving members in- structions regarding the carrying on of factional work. These facts became known because of the depositions of several workers who are Party members and who had attended these meetings without identifying themselves as enemies of Party unity. | Hurry Up Before It Is Too Late | The registration for Camp Nitge-| deiget for the week of September 24/ to October 2nd is proceeding in full swing.
