BERLIN, Sept. 9.—In line with its policy of keeping on hand as large an armed force as possible under the terms of the Versailles treaty, and providing a still larger yeserve force by the simple expedi- ent of training more men in shorter periods, the German “socialist” reichstag is considering a plan to give exhaustive aviation training to young men. % The course in aviation will not only provide training in flying but will also train young men in the principle of airplane construction on the ‘most modern lines. Main will have a course this winter and similar courses will be insti- tuted in other leading cities. The aviation plants are also being kept on the peak of efficiency and are experimenting in the production cf monster planes.

At the head of the parade marched | Robert Minor, Editor of the Daily | Worker, William T. Murdoch and Fred E.

After |them came the members of the strike committee consisting of about | | 100 workers.

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 9.—Charac- terizing the attack by Lewis rang- sters upon the convention of the _mine workers as “the last act of |desperation of a dying and corrupt | \organization united with the nolice | and coal operators.” John J. Watt, chairman of the arrangements com- mittee and one of the leaders of the rank and file, declared here today \traffie across the Italian colony of Eritrea. In return Italy is granted certain concessions, the most im- portant of which is the building of & railroad from Assab, a Bed Sea port, to the Abyssinian town of Des- sie, and later further south to Ad- dis Abbaba. The new line will open trade with central Abyssinia and when the Dessie-Addis Abbaba ex- tension is completed Italy will be in active competition with the French interests for trade in the south. A vear and a half ago Ras Taf- fari had complained to the League of Nations that England and Italy had each attempted to‘gain a dom- inating position in Abyssinia. The matter had been dropped when both governments denied the charges, but later it was revealed that they had attempted to gain concessions in Abyssinia. British interests were eager to dominate Abyssinia because of its strategic position in ‘regard to Egypt and the Sudan, and France is mainly concerned over her Af- rican colonies and trade.

The story they tell of the at- tempted assassinations is as follows: Louis Carboni is a Lewis spy, who |pretended to be a progressive for a time. He is also strongly sus- pected of being in operators’ pay. and has boasted of having $10,000 in the bank—money which no one ever made coal mining. Carboni some time ago severed jconnections with all progressives, |however, and openly fought the Save-the-Union movement. As presi- dent of the Bentleyville local of the U. M. W. A. he had a difficult time, |for the majority of the local is for the new union. At the meeting Fri- iday night the union men were de- j termined to affiliate with the new | union which the Pittsburgh conven- | tion wiJl build. Carboni put a henchman at the door, with orders to let no one go lout, and announced that the U. M. W. A. and no one else ruled this jhall. He gave the floor to no one j but his own supporters, who were |almost all paid supporters of Lewis also. | One of Carboni’s men, named |Robb, launched into an insulting |tirade against Carl Glovak, a pro- that the pact was impelled by the desire to see the Geneva disarma- ment conference escape from the deadlock on naval disarmament. The United States government has al- ready voiced its objection to limita- tion of large sized warships and the unlimited production of smaller and more effective craft, which is pro- vided for in the Franco-British ac- cord. ‘GOOD-WILL.” BALBOA, Canal Zone, Sept. 9.— The Mexican army aviator, Colonel Roberto Fierro, who is making a| “good-will” flight around Central America, arrived at Albrook Field, | in the Canal Zone, at 12:07 p. m. today from San Jose, Costa Rica.
