Only Since the naval pact will allow France to develop small submarines in unlimited numbers, and since the land armaments will not be inter- fered with as guaranteed by the naval pact and Coolidge, the French government has nothing to |lose in signing the pact, and indeed has much to gain in the develop- | ment of its army and navy. Reports that Stressmann, Ger- man’s foreign minister, would not| come to Paris for the signing of the | pact because of the continued oc- cupation of the Rhineland by French troops, have been denied. The Belgian, German, English and American governments have already | accepted the invitation. ganized in Kentucky. A letter received from Lienrietta, Oklahoma, reports that the miners ;of the Henrietta coal fields, where |they have ben forced to work under |the 1917 scale since quite some time ago, are extremely ‘bitter against the Lewis machine and have re- ceived with enthusiasm the news of the new union being organized.

Dr. Severing, minister of the in| terior, made speeches at the fascist lemonstrations at Frankfort and pee using an airplane to make Cc that he reached both of the ‘ities in time to speak before the fascists. Many newspapers commented also on the fact that the Socialist Reichstag had ordered an appro- priation for the building of a 10,000 ton cruiser, while talking of the Kellogg “peace” pact. FORCE JOBLESS TO WAIT HOURS Recently I called at the American Looseleaf Company, 141 Varick St., N. Y., and after waiting for 20 min- utes together with three others, I was informed that the job was filled. The advertisement called for a oung man as assistant to a stock utter. But when there are many pplicants when you call for the job, they ask you if you have had any experience. When only one per- son applies they act differently. As no salary is stated in the ad, the trick is to waste your time, hang around and feel dependent on them, The main reason is that the firm wants to pay as small a wage as possible and does not wish to state it openly. The same goes for “blind ads,” where you are requested to sell your services (this they state in your application) which means that the cheapest bidder gets the job, —M.

From the accounts of the work- ers, it is evident that Kuomin- tang had much to do with the ar- rests. The detectives who jailed the first group did not seem to know what it was all about, except that they were arresting “Com- munists” and “Bolsheviks.” At the police station they were entirely at a loss te know on what charges they had arrested the workers and only declared the charge after the police lieutenant. nad coaxed them, Questioned About Bolshevism. At the station the police ques- tioned the workers and wanted to know if they were “Bolsheviks,” They also wanted to know if the | collectors were being paid for their work, it being entirely incomprehen- _ sible to them apparently that any- one should want to collect money for Chinese workers for nothing. When asked if they were being paid, one of the arrested workers said, “Yes, by being arrested.” That preparation had been made in advance to break up the collec- tion for the Chinese trade unionists is also evidenced by the fact that the police had refused to grant a permit to the committee to hold an open-air meeting the same after- noon.
