‘so D/WNES, GOMPERS AND BURNS LISTED AS LEADING RADICAL BATTERS BY LIBERTIES UNION (By The Federated Press) NEW YORK, June 25.—Hell an’ Maria Dawes, republican candidate for vice-president of the United States, is listed as one of the most active labor-baiters and radical hunters during the McAdoo as a potential vote-getter in an election year when the Andy Gumps and Henry Dubbs and their wives are touchy on the subject of Big Business control at Washington, but his oil record is the worst. He npt only re- ceived $50,000 from Doheny and from his firm, $100,000, but was to get a mil- ' last year by the annual report of the American Civil Liberties Union, headquarters New York city. But Dawes got “little re- sponse” from the public for his Minute Men of the Constitution, organized to “combat organized Jabor,” the report states.

He got another $50,000 from representing a second Morse firm, the Broton Iron Works, against the government. McAdoo’s friend and employer, Morse, is the crooked banker who was sentenced in 1908 to Atlanta peniten- tiary for 15 years, and then released by President Taft through the efforts of Harry Daugherty and others. So McAdoo’s name is connected with Republican scandals not only in the case of Doheny and oil but also the Morse scandals, it is pointed out. Klan a Boomerang This record had killed the McAdoo boom until the Ku Klux Klan came to the rescue. As a result McAdoo enters the convention with over 400 votes, as against 300 or less for Smith his closest competitor, But the klan, which revived the defunct McAdoo boom, may prove the boomerang which finally puts him out of the running.

NEW YORK CITY, June 25.—Sena- tor Thomas J. Walsh of Montana, per- manent chairman of the Democratic convention, laid down the issues upon which the outs expect to get in during the presidential election. According to the senator, these issues are: hon- est government, repeal of the tariff law, relief for agriculture and related reforms. The issue of the league of nations was side-tracked. “The honor of our country, the pros- perity of our people demand that we return to the ideals of Woodrow Wil- son,” he said. In the almost complete absence of any outstanding leadership in the Democratic party, the conven- tion engineers are finding it more and more expedient to call upon the name of the late Woodrow I. Attacking the Republican party, Walsh exclaimed: “What a galaxy! Forbes, Fall, Daugherty, Jess Smith, Mannington, Felder, Darden, Kramer, with Roxie Stinson and Gaston B. Means in the background. But he did not mention Palmer and the alien property custodian scandal, the bil- lions of war graft under the Wilson administration, the dollar-a-year men, who carried off the treasury, and the thousands of new millionaires created under the Democratic party. “Banks are suspending at the rate of more than a thousand a year,” said Walsh, in dealing with the farm crisis. His only proposal for aiding the farm- ers consisted in hinting at tariff tin- |kering. The Republicans were excori- \ated for failing to “do something” for the farmers, but the Democrats were pledged to nothing more definite than the record of “eight years of glorious history from 1913 to 1921.” This does not mean, in the opinion of competent observers, that Walsh meant to prom- ise more years of war prosperity for the farmers if they vote for the Dem- ocrats. There was not, however, any indication of how otherwise the jack- ass party expects to restore the pur- chasing power of the farmers. “RUSSIA IN 1924” WILL BE FOSTERS ‘SUBJECT. JULY 16 Come, Hear Why Europe Turns Toward Soviets William. Z. Foster, chairman of the Workers party, who has just returned from a trip thru Russia, Germany and France, will speak on “Russia in 1924," Wednesday, July 16, 8 p. m., at Douglas Park Auditorium, Ogden and S, Kedzie Aves. Russia has been developing more rapidly industrially and socially than any other country. Politically, Rus- sia has been in the forefront ever since the Soviets have been estab- lished. Today more than ever the workers and peasants of Russia stand solidly for the Soviet government and the Communist party. Everyone wants to hear of the re- markable progress being made by Russia’s workers and peasants. Com- rade Foster comes with first-hand knowledge of Russia’s swift economic ascent. Comrade Foster studied the Russian situation thoroly and it will be pleasing indeed and informative to get the up-to-the-minute stuff. If you want to know what the workers are doing and thinking, how the Russian unions are growing with leaps and bounds, how the schools are increas- ing steadily, how and why, in short, Soviet Russia has become one of the biggest powers in the world and why Europe is moving in the direction of Soviet governments in their countries as the only salvation for the work- ers from capitalist misery, poverty and pillage—come to hear William Z. Foster on Wednesday, July 16, at Douglas Park Auditorium, Ogden and S. Kedzie Aves. If you want to get into the hall the night of the Foster meeting, get your ticket early. The admission is only 25 cents. It was impossible to get a larger hall for that day, so if you want to hear Foster, and every intel- ligent worker does, get your’ ticket in advance at the usual places. Klansmen Get No “Kick” from Finnish Workers’ Dance BUFFALO, N. Y,, June 25.—The Klan interrupted a dance held in Van Etten in Workers hall, where the Fin- nish branch, Workers party, orchestra was playing. An unmasked Klansman entered the hall and asked if he might hang up the American flag which was being donated by a Van Etten organ- ization which he did not name. Byvi- dently he expected resistance, but he didn’t get it. The ladies lent him pins to hang up the flag, and he departed. The dancers then noticed a burning cross in the lot opposite the hall, and children ran over to see it, but were turned away by Klansmen. The fes- tivities continued until 12:80, but the Kluxers made no more disturbance, THE DAILY WORKER WORKERS NEED STRONG UNION (Continued from page 1.) the different crafts into a combined amalgamated council, was the only successful way to organize the West- est Electric company plant, which in- cluded so many different crafts, Go After Western Electric. The Wlectrical Industries Council carried on a joint organization drive, which included the Western Electric company and the telegraph and tele- phone workers and operators. The council also conducted a complete survey of the electrical industries of the country, which showed that the only organized group of telephone workers was in the New Bngland states. The New England states were found to be organized 100 per cent with an agreement covering five states, Alarmed at the great success in or- ganizing the electrical workers into an amalgamated union, Samuel Insull, head of Commonwealth Edison, the “L,” and other parts of the electric trust, brot Mike Boyle on the scene, serving his master well, proceeded to break up the organization campaign among the Western Blectric workers, in spite of the protests of the rank and file members of the union, Insull Brings Mike Boyle. Mike Boyle wormed his way into the office of the business agent of local No. 134. With the aid of the likewise crooked business agent of local No. 9, Boyle broke up the or- ganization drive at the time the or- ganization of the non-union electrical workers was being accomplished with great success. Bernard Sonney gave Boyle control of the jobs in the tele- phone company, and thus Boyle was able to get control of the union by wielding the power to hire and fire over the union members. Boyle won out in the election for business agent in 1918, and stopped the organization drive by securing the adoption of a motion to make the initiation fee for new union members from $7.50 to $200. Boyle further, thru his power over the jobs of the men, had a motion passed that the reduced initiation fees would not be accepted unless the craft of the new memiber were 100 per cent organized. Boyle Broke Johnson’s Drive. After Mike Boyle had smashed the great organization campaign taking in all crafts employed at Western Electric, Morton Johnson made a statement summing up the experi- ences of the organization campaign, He declared that in the next drive it would be more successful to or- ganize all the smaller units of the electrical industry all over the coun- try before concentrating on the Bell Telephone system. This organization drive should include the telegraph- ers, telephone operators, and all crafts affiliated with the ,electrical workers. Johnson declared that if the Bell system then discriminated against union men, a general nation-wide strike thruout the industry should be called in a fight to a finish for the right of the Bell telephone employes to join the electrical workers’ union. In spite of the corrupt domination of Mike Boyle and his machine over the electrical workers’ union, the rank and file progressives in the union have created such a protest for the organization of the Western Blec- tric company that the American Fed- eration of Labor recently instructed th national metal trades council to start another organization drive to or- ganize the electrical industries, Learn Progressive’s Plan Tomorrow. The officials of the metal trades council of Chicago, and the reaction- ary Blectrical Workers’ union of- ficials of the Mike Boyle type, were reluctant to heed the demand of the rank and file union members. Forced to make at least a pretense of or- ganization, due to the insistance of the progressive element, the of- ficials of the electrical workers’ union started a drive for the organization of the Western Electric employes into their union. An organization drive to get the Western Electric employes into the Electrical Workers’ union is now supr posed to be going on. In the next article we will tell how Mike Boyle’s policy of keeping the men out of the union and of doing everything possible to aid the electric trust’s bosses is being carried on in the present organization campaign in the Western Electric plant. We will tell what the program of the progressive electrical workers is, and will tell the policies of the Trade Union Educational League toward the Electrical Workers’ union and toward the reactionary officials of the union. | MORGAN DRAFTS DONKEY PLANKS (Continued from page 1.) form can afford to ~ ake minor con- coustew= tn «44> jbmners. ing injunctions, knowing that ‘these guarantees can be abrogated in the event of a “national emergency.” The formal drafting committee ap- pointed includes William J.

Pandemonium broke out this after- noon at the first direct mention of the Klu Klux Klan. Fordney John- ston, of Alabama, placing Senator Os- car W. Underwood's name before the convention, denounced the “hooded and secret organization known as the Ku Klux Klan,” with a crashing cheer. Delegates arose to their chairs, shouted, threw their hats in the air and finally started a parade. Fights broke out in the Missouri and Colo- rado delegations, requiring policemen to intervene. Johnston got a real cheer when he denounced the “secret super-govern- ment” and condemned “the participa- tion in politics of any secret organiza- tion.” Several delegations rose en masse and cheered while the band played. It was the first sincere outburst of the day on a large scale. ‘Cathollc Names McAdoo. William Gibbs McAdoo was placed in nomination late today by Senator Phelan of California. The shrewd backer of the Ku Klux Klan candidate made a clever plea to the delegates to avoid “racial and re- ligious ues, in the coming cam- paign and to stand together as “Amer- icans.” An organized demonstration fol- lowed.

Phelan placed the name of William G. McAdoo in nomination beforé the democratic convention this afternoon. “Business-like government” was the key to Phelan’s speech. McAdoo would be the ideal businessmen’s can- didate. Wilson had commended his son-in-law highly before he died, and Wilson's word still goes strong here, so he was quoted at length. The K. K. K, issue was handled only indirect- ly by the fact that Phelan, a Catholic, was rushed home for special purpose of nominating William Gibbs, in the hopes that this would help offset the barrage of the anti-crowd. McAdoo was a close adviser of Wil- son during the war, said Phelan, and was “actuated by the same lofty sen- timent of patriotism, humanity, and service.” The weather is hot and the crowds have had to endure in addition, an in- sufferable lot of bunk.

WASHINGTON, June 25.—Diplo- matic silence has been clamped down by Secretary Hughes on the communi- cation handed him by the French am- bassador, notifying him that France is ‘about to open negotiations with Moscow for formal recognition of the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics. Among the questions which the French move naturally raises is one as to whether the French and Ameri- ean claims for repayment of the money they spent on the Chinese Hastern railway, while using that rail- way to make war on Russia, are men- tioned in this note. The French might want an understanding with Hughes as to making the payment of this claim a part of their price for recognizing Moscow. . ‘The state department denies that it has replied to the note sent by China, in which China boldly and flatly re- fuses to consider payment of the rail- way claim, The tone of the Chinese note indicates that some power far stronger than herself dictated that note. There are hints that Japan, de- siring to make things uncomfortable for the United States, gave Chima as- surances of her support. If this be the case, then a Russo-Japanese treaty, looking toward a combination of Russia, Japan and China as against the commercial plans of American di- plomacy in the far east, may be near completion. Young Workers Win Crowd While Free Lancer Calls Bulls Young Workers’ League speakers completely routed a “free lancer’’ who was attempting to harangue a small audience at the corner of Washtenaw and Division streets, which is used by the Maplewood branch of the league, for open air meetings. M. Goldstein, of the Y. W. L., opened the meeting opposite the “free lancer” by saying that he represented an or- ganization of class-conscious workers. Pete Herd spoke on anti-militarism and the inevitable occurrence of wars under capitalism. The “free lancer,” who was saying nothing about the education and or- yanization of wiikers, but was giving some blaw-blaw, tipped off the police ‘but rah as the patrol wagon appeared. ‘The bulls found no reason for di:turb- ing the large crowd ‘at the Y.

The Amalgamated have lost some ground in New York Market and now they are determined to revive their old time strength. The manufacturers have been try- ing for some time to undermine the Amalgamated. One of the practices used by them is the sending of work to non-union establishments in out of town centers, as well as in the city, while they, were supposed to be run- ning a union shop. This has had a demoralizing effect amongst the-mem- bers. But now they have gone too far and the Amalgamated is deter- mined to make the New York Market a 100 per cent union, and to force the manufacturers to live up to the union agreement in fact as well as in the- ory.

As this is written the odds against him are getting bigger and bigger and the New York- Chicago Catholic bosses who still dominate the machinery of bey democratic party are chuck- ing. With the Brennan-Foley gang the Klan is a convemient polit- ical issue to use against their rivals’ fair-haired boy. That they are not concerned with the iquestion of liberty per se is evi- dent by observing the govern- ment of the communities they control—Chicago with its “gold- fish” infamy and New York with its record of arrests of radicals under Hylan. What they want is to stop McAdoo, because McAdoo deals directly with the Wall Street masters and not thru the intermediary of Tammany Hall or Boss Brennan. Anti-Labor, Anti-Negro. None of these unscrupulous politi- cians \are attacking the klan as an enemy of labor or a murderous foe of the Negro, whose rights are sup- posed to be guaranteed by constitu- tional amendments. The anti-klan gang is as anti-Ne- gro and anti-labor as the kluxers. Oscar Underwood, who has been prancing for the jackass nomination since 1912, is leading the anti-klan ranks south of the Dixie line, Yet tionary of the south. Fights for Lynchers. the Dyer anti-lynching bill. Under- wood is a friend of the child slavers and a foe of the United Mine Work- ers and other unions in Alabama. In other words, he is for the things the klan stands for, but against the nightie organization because there is a big anti-klan vote in Georgia—and outside of it. } | Fourteenth Amendment Forgotten. The Catholic bosses of the north will not lift a finger at this conven- tion for a plank demanding enforce- ment of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments in behalf of the Black Man, whom their party used to slave, They will talk about religious liberty and they will faintly murmur some- thing about the rights of the foreign born—tho they let the Johnson immi- gration bill go thru without a protest. They will put in a tissue plank for la- bor, but the Negro won’t get a whis- per, tho the klan sprang out of its half-century grave for the basic pur- pose of maintaining white supremacy, Wall Street Uses Both. Wall Street uses the Catholic ma- chine and the Ku Kluxers, which are now in windy civil war. It will not let this war go too far.

There is just one big cloud on the horizon: the class Farmer-Labor par- ty, which is marsballing the workers and farmers for a workers and farm- ers’ government. That menace is looming larger on the horizon. It may even force the nomination of a candi- date that the labor lieutenants of cap- italism in the railway brotherhoo? can indorse. a McAdoo’s hope for the nomination lies in his strength with the heads of the big anti-radical, anti-strike unions, ee strength gives him : “availabil- yy."
