very dong Page Four — “tL LAVORATORE” BEGINS ITS DAILY LIFE ON MAY 31 Italians Picnic Sunday For Communist Paper May 31 is the date set for the first issue of the new Italian Communist daily, “Il Lavoratore.” It’s birthday will be heralded with a grand concert held under the auspices of the !talian Federation of the Workers’ Party. The next big meeting for the bene- fit of “Il Lavoratore” will be a mon- ster picnic on Sunday, May 25th, at Hawthorne Park, Cicero avenue and 22nd street. Whole Country Waits Birth. The Federation has arranged nu- merous meetings thruout the country among the Italian workers to cele- brate the victory of their organization as it will be expressed in the new paper. Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Ro- chester, Cleveland, Detroit, and many lesser cities where the Italian work- ers are strong, will help to make the new organ of the Italian Communists a potent weapon in the class fight in this country, as well as abroad in the “land of the black shirts.” Hail “Il Lavoratore.” Italian workers are hailing the new “Tl Lavoratore” as a sturdy guardian of their interests and expect the pa- per to eliminate many of the fascisti newspapers, which have been poison- ing the minds of Italians here and abroad. Further announcement of the plans for the great concert marking the first publication of “Il Lavoratore” on May 31 will be given later. Some of the best singers in the city, among them Italian opera stars, will donate their services to the musical program. WORKERS PARTY MAIN OFFICE NOW IN DAILY WORKER BUILDING On and after May 20th the ad- dress of the National Office of the Workers’ Party of America will be Room 301, 1113 Washington Bivd., Chicago, Ill.

The housing of the National Of- fice, the DAILY WORKER, the the federation secretaries, in one building is expected to greatly pro- mote efficient conduct of the Party business. Russian Picnics.

The Labor Defense Council has just had made 50,000 of these attractive but- tons—not (as will soon be the fash- ion in the campaign year) to adver- tise candidates for president and vice-president, but to symbolize the great issue of the Michigan defense. Buttons are to be sold thru all branches of the Labor Defense Council; they will be on sale every- where and will be used for tagging purposes at picnics.

The banner was designed by Nat Kaplan, member of the National Exec- utive Committee of the Young Work- ers League and was sewed by hand by comrades Emma Blechschmidt and Elsie Newman, members of the Chi- cago League. The letter was of gold thread embroidered on a flaming red background and bears the hammer and sickle of the Communist International. “This in a small measure indicates the close bond which holds the com- munist youth of the world firmly to- gether,” said Harry Gannes in making the dedicatory speech. “The interna- tional of socialist youth was a losely formed body with but little more than sentiment holding it together. The war shattered it asunder. In 1915 the revolutionary remnants of the socialist youth of the world met in Berne to realign those willing to fight against imperialism and war as a class issue. The groundwork of the young com- munist international of which we are so proud to be part, was formed there. The Young Communist International is a unified organization; the national sections are as much a part of the cen- tral body of the international as are the local branches integral sections of |the city central committee. “I attended the presentation of a banner~similar”to this given by the communist youth of Berlin to the Mos- cow league. Everywhere we find this spirit of tangible comradeship and co- operation. But we shall fail of our high task if we do not back up this éxpression of fervor and solidarity with the actual work of putting into effect the program of the Young Com- munist International. “Let us hope that the time is not far distant when we can by our acts and our deeds show our tangible rela- tionship to the Y. C. 1.” The banner will be sent on its way as soon as possible and there is no doubt a celebration will be arranged by the Y. C. I. to receive it in the name of the executive committee. Other sections of the Young Work- ers League are expected to follow the example of the Chicago organization. The future plan is to present banners from shop nuclei of a particular in- dustry to a like shop organization of communist youth in some other coun- try. Advancing German Revolt Picture In N. Y. Next Week NEW YORK, May 21.—The new Soviet film “Russia-Germany” which Was shown for the first time in New York City at the Central Opera House, was received with prolonged cheering as the advance pictures of the Ger- man revolution and the Red’ Army were flashed on the screen. This film will now be shown for the first time downtown at the Labor Temple, 14th street and Second avenue, for three days only, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, May 26, 27 and 28. The scenes of Russia change sharp- ly in contrast to that of Germany. Russia is shown at peace, building up its industries. There are complete scenes of the famous Moscow inter- national exposition showing Russia one thousand years ago, and Russia today. The exposition shows the meager huts that the peasants lived in and the new model cottages built for the workers today by the Soviet government. All the hundreds of na- tionalities living in vast Russia today are shown at the fair in their pictur- esque native costumes. The film gives pictures of a drama given at the John Reed Commune Home, where Russia is sheltering the millions of orphans left during the great famine. The children have writ- ten the play themselves, and’are act- ing it to suit their own fancies and one sees that the Russian children are natural born dancers and players. This new film is superior in photo- graphy, dramatic interest and titling to any of the other films which have been shown in America by the Friends of Soviet Russia. _ In addition to Russia-Germany, the funeral pictures of Lenin will also be shown.

Y, RUSSELL- NEARING DEBATE Hear Arguments For Soviets Sunday NEW YORK, May 21.—The United | States Senate has been invited. to at- tend en masse the forthcoming debate on the Soviets between Bertrand Rus- sell and Scott Nearing which is to take place on Sunday, May 25th, at 3 p. m. It is rumored that many will be there incognito. The subjéct of this significant de- bate is: “Resolved: That the Soviet ideas of government are applicable to Western: civilization.” Mr. Russell, who supports the negative, is in an authoritative position to up ‘d_ his position by virtue of the fact that he spent a considerable period of time in Russia during the Communistic regime. He feels that Sovietism has nothing to offer to America, England or France, and that it will never be applied to these countries. Scott Nearing, the foremost radical lecturer, Whose sympathies are with Soviet Russia and who subscribes to the Communist philosophy of gov- ernment will try to prove that the Soviet princtfles can be applied to this country. Samuel Untermyer, the well-known attorney, will act as chairman. The League for Public Discussion, 5)0 Fifth avenue, under whose auspices this debate has been arranged, reports an unprecedented demand for tickets.

MOSCOW, May 21.—It is reported from Constantinople that the Russian raw materi exhibition, arranged there by the Russo-Oriental Chamber of Commerce, has met with a great success. 4 tA joint sessions of this Chamber with the Turkish Chamber of Com- merce, important and fundamental decisions were taken by representa- tives of the latter organization with regard to Russo-Turkish economic rapproachement, demonstration of the patriotic cele- R ‘HE newest general attack of the Social- Democratic and yellow trade union leaders against the Inter- national Workers’ Relief met with its first repulse in this country when the United Workmen’s Singers and Unit- ‘ed German Trades of Philadelphia de- cided recently to disregard the circu- lar letter sent them by the General Federation of German Trade Unions denouncing the International Work- ers’ Relief as a Communist organiza- tion whose real object is to spread Communist propaganda. Both these Philadelphia organizations participate in the Philadelphia Conference for German Workers’ Relief, which is af- filiated with the Committee for Inter- national Workers’ Aid, the American branch of the International Workers’ Relief. The United German Singers and the United German Trades, both of which contain Socialist elements, decided to redouble their efforts in support of the International Workers’ Relief and to proceed with the work on the international bazaar for Ger- man workers’ aid, which was held in Philadelphia on May 1, 2 and 3, un- der the auspices of the Committee for International Workers’ Aid. The two organizations were represented at the meeting of the Philadelphia Con- ference for German Workers’ Relief on April 16, which was a rousing dem- onstration for the International Work- ers’ Relief and at which over 100 dele- gates gwere present. The -circular letter of the General Federation of German Trade Unions has been followed by a press service statement of the Amsterdam Interna- tional Federation of Trade Unions, a statement full of slander and misin- formation. concerning the Interna- tional Workers’ Relief, which recently has had a phenomenal growth and is enlisting the sympathy and aid of the rank and file’ trade union organiza- tions everywhere. This press service statement talks of money spent pure- ly on-Communist propaganda and is a repetition practically of the circular letter seht out by the General Feder- ation of German Trade Unions. No mention is made of the 50 soup kitchens established by the Interna- tional Workers’ Relief in Berlin alone, of the. 1,715,000 warm meals distrib- uted in Germany up to March 15, of the special dairy kitchens established in the Rhine provinces for the chil- dren of striking workers, of the nur- series maintained by the Interna- tional Workers’ Relief, Nothing is said of the 1,000 children sent from Germany to be cared for abroad, of the clothing repair rooms opened, of the medical assistance departments opened. The fact is that the International Workers’ Relief is a non-partisan or- German Children Given $5,500 From New York Tag Sales NEW YORK, May 21—The tag day held in New York City for the relief of the German working class children, which was run jointly with the International Workers Aid, New York Section, and the Jewish Work- ers’ Relief. recently, brought in the sum of $5,500.

All Fascists have enemies within the party and all took the at- tack launched by Rocco, as the signal to take a swing at their pet foes. Roc- co was kicked out of the Fascist or- ganization, but that has not stopped the internal fights among the - black shirts. All the little local black shirt chiefs are yelling their heads off trying to get their rivals fired from the party. The two great rival banks of the coun- try, the Commerciale and the Credito Italiano, have their. backers attacking each other. Harry F. Sinclair has an oil lease he is trying to get across and that furnishes more material for the scrappers. Charges of graft among the Fascist higher ups are flying thick and fast. Indications are that the Fascists will be split into twenty or more sec- tions by. the merry wrangle. Mussolini is having fits at the prospect. His en- tire time and energy are being put in- to repairing the damage and attempts to bring back harmony. Rocco who was once an anarchist, threatens to “tell all.” Interesting developments are sure.

The Interna- tional Workers’ Relief unites all per- sons who honestly desire to co-oper- ate in this great international, genu- ine and practical solidarity and mu- tual aid. But the Social-Democratic and yel- low trade union leaders are afraid that relief for the German workers would bolster up the fighting strength of these workers in the struggle against the German capitalist class and the capitalists of the world. The Socialist and yellow trade union lead- ers are doing their utmost to help the capitalist class break the resist- ance of the German workers, The ‘workers of Germany are giving a clear answer to this treacherous at- tack. With the aid of the workers of the world they are continuing the bat- tle against enslavement by the capi- talist class, against the 12-hour day, against the scourge of unemployment, against starvation brought on by cap- italist misrule.
