s Page Four LIBERALS AND TORIES AGREE —ONUNTY PACT Triangular Contests Are Barred (Special to The Daily Worker) LONDON, Oct. 19.—The elec- tion campaign here is in full swing. The liberals and tories have made an agreement whereby triangular contests will be avoided and the full force of the two parties brought to bear against the labor candidates. At the same time the Labor Par- ty executive is attempting to ar- rive at an agreement with the 14 liberals who voted with them against the conservative motion which brought the dissolution of parliament. It is quite apparent to every- body that this is a contest be- tween the laborites and the con- ‘servatives. The result of the election will eliminate the liber- als as a political force of any significance in the country. Tories Attack Russian Treaty. The conservatives are using as their main argument the Russian treaty agreed to by MacDonald under the “pressure of the left wing elements in his party. MacDonald defended the treaty at his Glasgow meeting on the grounds that granting a loan to Rus- sia would revive British industry. The conservatives are opposing the loan to Russia in line with the policy of the Federation of British Industries, the jorganization of the big industrialists of the country. ‘ “Lord Beaverbrook, the Hearst of Britain, is attempting to fix up an ‘mgreement with the conservative party ‘whereby Lloyd George will join them. ‘Beaverbrook supported George during vthe war and helped him in his fight ‘against Asquith, but abandoned him after the war. Now that he has some ‘use for him he has taken him up again, and is attempting to smooth ‘the way for the entry of George into the ranks of the conservatives. At the recent congress of the labor ‘party the proposition that the Com- munists would not be allowed to affil- iate, that local labor parties were to refuse membership to Communists and were also forbidden to nominate Com- munists as candidates was accepted. This decision came from the MacDon- jald clique, and was a step taken to ‘prove to the middle class that the la- bor ministers are opposed to Commun- ism. * Nominate Many Communists. In spite of this decision against the Communists, in many localities the lo- eal labor parties are nominating Com- munists as their candidates in the present election. The disgraceful ex- hibitions of jingoism given by the MacDonald gang has disgusted many of the rank and file of the party. The sgectacle of Thomas, colonial secre- tary warning the “foreigner” against encroaching upon the rights of the Britis, Smpire has been received by the local labor parties as an intima- tion that the leaders of the party are going even further to the defense of British imperialism that they did in| the past. Many of the conservative candidates are using the snobbish exhibition made . by the labor ministers in their court dresses, fancy garden parties, and the other trimmings that they treated themselves to as soon as they entered office, as campaign fodder. The dis- graceful imperialistic policy pursued by MacDonald while in office has giv- en ammunition into the hands of the Gapitalist parties to be used against him. And these parties are hypocriti- cal enough to use it even tho there was no difference between the policies pursued by MacDonald and those of the capitalist parties, But the fact that the capitalist parties are able to use the fads and frills indulged in by the petty middle class persons who composed the MacDonald cabinet is cause for shame to the working class of the country, Hot Contest Predicted. The united front of the liberals and conservatives against the labor party will result in a hot contest, But it is unlikely that the differences between them can be patched up in such a short time, and particularly when there has been no change in the situation to warrant them combining for the formation of a government, Besides this the combination can only be at the expense of the liberals who are much weaker than the conservative: ‘Tho fact that the labor party is able to secure hundreds more workers for an election than the other parties, and that these workers in the constitu- encies are possessed of a crusading spirit, gives the labor party a great ad- vantage in the election. It is most likely that the labor party will be returned with a slightly increased ma- jority and will form the next govern- ment. The Communists here declare that another term in office for the MacDon- ald group would thoroly disillusion the workers regarding any benefit they will gain from these reactionary jiu goes in office, * Ga | Detroit, Mich. to November 2. The total number of leaflets, pamphlets, stickers and DAILY WORKERS these 400 mem- bers will distribute is 54,800. A check for $200 to pay for the literature reached the national office from the Detroit Finnish branch yes- terday. This is a challenge to other party branches. Not that we expect many branches to do better than a $200 remittance and a complete mobiliza- tion of its members for Red Week. But we do expect every party branch to take part in this effort to organize a naion-wide distribution of Commun- ist literature during the last week of the campaign. The Negro branch in Chicago was) the second branch to announce its complete mobilization for Red Week. Its eleven members contributed their quota of $5.50 for eleven literature units. Eleanor Massey of the Kansas City branch carried out the command to mobilize to the letter. She writes | that all members have been mobilized | except three, two of whom are not in the city and one must be excused be- | cause he had his arm cut off in the | packing house he worked in. She or- dered ten sets of 137 pieces each. It is against this maiming and slaughter- ing of workers that we are mobiliz- ing for the distribution of three mil- lion pieces of campaign literature during Red Week. Shop Drive Helps Bring N.

(Federated Press Staff Correspondent) WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.—From one of the biggest firms on the New York stock exchange comes assurance that a new steel merger is on the way, and that all that now impedes the “ex- pansion and development” of business is the uncertainty as to Coolidge’s election. Stock brokers thruout the nation are put on notice that a depresssion in the value of industrial stocks is |likely until after election. One of the Boston brokers even ventures to say that an effort is to be made to de press stock ‘in order to impress the country with the necessity” of elect- ing Coolidge on Noy. 4 Expect Coolidge Victory. Others suggest in bulletins to their clients that there is really no serious danger of Coolidge’s defeat, but that until the result of the election is definitely determined prices will go down. The Boston firm which talks as tho a market-rigging deal for poli- tical purposes were under prepara- tion, advises its customers to sell one- half of their holdings at once, in or- der to take advantage of lower prices later. How far the stock gamblers have been brought together by the big bankers to “do their bit” for their class candidate is not fully disclosed as yet. Their correspondence, how- ever, is all woven about the one cen- tral theme—a pained surprise that any great section of the American people should want to disturb and actually change conditions under which big business is taking more profits every day! A Word to the Wise. They caution the investors and brokers in the country at large to be vigilant and active to defeat this dis- turbing element, and to remember that the rewards of victory are just ahead, in bigger profits, more “con- servatism” in the federal government. and general settling of all public questigns in favor of the big fellows.

Y., Oct. 19.—Com- rade Krumbein was badly worried by creditors. The treasury was ex- hausted. Funds were needed at once. The finance committee was sending out appeals for money, but it was a moment when money was needed in large amounts. .The Finnish Branch, Brooklyn, had pledged $500, of which they still owed $300, It was decided to have Comrade Krumbein visit the meet- ing of the branch executive com- mittee. On the way over, he prepared a nice speech on the necessities of the campaign. _ When he arrived he was immediately granted the floor, and shown every courtesy. He launched into his subject at once, speaking about seven minutes. It was a critical situation. He felt he must impress his hearers, and de- livered what he knew to be the best speech of his life. As Krumbein finished, the chair- man rose, and handed him a check for $300, which had been prepared in advance. Astonished, he exclaim- ed, “Well, why did you let me: speak?” “We didn’t want to interrupt you,” said the chairman.

(For The Federated Press.) (Tom Mann, long secretary of the Amalgamated Engineering Union of Great Britain, was on the first Kuzbas provisional committee in | 1921. This is an account of his | visit this year to the Kusnetzki | Basin on the river Tom.) Traveling in the Chita train on the Trans-Siberian railway we went to Jurga, the nearest station on the main line, about 2,300 miles from Moscow. The sixty-five miles remaining to Kemerovo was done by buggy with horses rather than wait for train next day. My companion and I were as- tonished at the wonderful luxuriance of the crops ready for harvest on the peasants’ farms. Reaching Kemeroyo we were soon in touch with the American séction of the colony and facilities were afford- ed for a detailed inspection of the mines, chemical plant, machine shops, farm, dairy, co-operative society, un- ion offices, ete. I was” most favorably impressed with nearly every department and phase of development. I was down the mine twice, one day going down by the incline or drift, a pretty rough road at that for one who has said goodby to youth as I have. But J was familiar With underground roads, having worked down a coal mine in middle England fifty-five. years ago and indulged in amateur coal and metal mine inspection in various parts of the’ world since then. Good Working System. I found it much the cosiest when we went down the central shaft, and made direct for the 42 foot seam of coal. I have seen many seams, some less than two feet, but nothing deeper than 14 feet until I saw this at Keme- rovo, The estimate is that in the Kusbas region alone there is more coal than in the whole of Britain. The methods of work at Kemerovo are good. A new shaft is being sunk and schemes are in hand for higher effi- ciency. I was very much impressed with the chemical plant.

WORKERS! Nicholas Solonenko were court Lemberg. The fact of the matter is, zimierz Gryszszak, a Lemberg detective from police headquar- ters, testified that Cechnowski and Smalka with the knowledge of police headquarters and by their order have placed the bomb in \the powder house, which proves that the whole thing was a frameup ar- ranged by the police. Frame-up Innocent Men. The stool-pigeon Cechnowski’s no- torious participation in the trial of Baginski and Wiezorsiewicz in War- saw, in known to all. For despite all attempts to strangle the truth the “defensive” (military secret service of Poland) did not succeed in conceal- ing that the bombs in this affair were supplied by the stool-pigeon Cechnowski. . The officers of the Pol- ish army, Baginski and Wiezorseiwicz, framed up by this provocation of the political police, rot in a dung- eon, sentenced. to life imprisonment while Cechnowski the stool-pigeon continues his activity of bomb placing and probably carrying thru the coun- try trunks full of bombs. What is the purpose of those pro- vocations? The agents of the czarist “Okhrana” would organize terroristic attempts in order to discover them thereafter. Thru these frame-ups they gained and held their influence on the cowardly, rotten to the core, czarist bureaucracy. The same methods are now being used by the Polish “defense” gang on the stultified, scared into idiocy, Pol- ish bourgeois society. Supported by a Decaying Society. To boost its merits the “defensive” sends statements to the papers about discoveries of Communist plots which do not contain a word of truth. The “defensive” is engaged in open black- mail and fraud. It raids some stu- dents’ excursion or a perfectly legal meeting of a labor union, and then advertises such an exploit as a cap- ture of the general staff of the Com- munist Workers’ Party of Poland.

Much additfonal machinery is requir. ed to admit of all the by-products being obtained but extensions are constantly taking place, and consid: erable machinery is on order. The By-products. Should the Kolchugina mine and electrification scheme work out ac- cording to plan, as I believe it~ will, it is reasonable to expect rapid de- velopment of the district. For great success it will be necessary that the peasants shall appreciate the use of fertilizers which the chemical. plant will provide. In Czarist days there was no disposition shown by the peas- ants to get machinery. Maybe this was due largely to the practical diffi- culties in the way. I was in the company of the government agent re- sponsible for trying to meet the de- mands of the peasants for implements and machines, He told me the gov- ernment was otfly able to supply 40 per cent of the actual demands last year. This indicates a revolution in the psychology of the peasant and those who are ready for machine cul- tivation are ready for using fertilizers, All Contented.

They treated me not saw, Bucharest, and in Italy, France and other European countries did arouse a vivid alarm in the working people of those countries. Such catastrophies are the direct outcome of militarism, of the mad war pre- parations of all bourgeois states. These calamities are unavoidable and will occur the more frequently as the old explosives left over from the last war disintegrate. Under the mad militar. istic bourgeoisie, nobody can be sure that in any moment of the day or night the earth under his feet is not going to quake and the roof won’t fall on his head. ‘ Orgies of White Terrorism. To divert from themselves the rightful indignation of the People and to justify new orgies of white terror- ism, the bourgeoisie tries to indict the Communists for their own despic- able doings. -. The provocation of .Lemberg was framed up to blacken and vilify the Communist Party in the eyes of the working people. The provocation of Lemberg is a capitalist offensive against the working class to increase exploitation of the workers. The bourgeoisie knows that only the Com- munist Workers’ Party of Poland leads the workers in their struggle against the capitalists. After the criminal sentence of the court martial of Lemberg which sen- tenced to death two innocent victims of a police-provocation, ones ‘of the dirties bourgeois scribblers, a mem- her of Polish parliament, correspond- ent to the “Hyena” (Christian-Nation- alist Alliance) and former spy of the merely with respect but with real comradelike heartiness. 1 had the op- portunity of private talks with experts and with ordinary rank and filers; all of them were cheerfully optimistic and have full faith in the increasing success of the colony, There are all told about 4,500 persons in and about the colony, and only one mile distant is a purely Russian town of 6,000 and villages scattered around.

MOSCOW.— Thirty million rubles ($15,000,000) is to be spent for bolshe- vik propaganda in the farming dis- trict of the Ukraine, However, this propaganda is not the sort which sec- retary Hughes sees in his dreams.

At a time when the working class strains all its energies to prevent its being dragged down into the utmost abyss of abject misery and slavery its enemies scheme to inject mistrust into its ranks. Shame to Traitors. Shame to the traitors of the Polish socialist party which takes a hand in this criminal frame-up! The combination of capital, the “Defensive” and socialist opportun- ists sewn with a red thread, will not succeed in misleading the working class. The Communist Workers Party of Poland points out with pride that it always opposed terrorist plots, seeing in such actions a petty bourgeois-an- archist deviation of the labor move- ment. 4 The social democracy of Poland and Lithuania, as well as the former “Left Wing Polish socialist party” have branded the bombist and plotting methods of the so-called revolution- ary faction of the Polish socialist party, with Mr. Pilsudski at its head, they pushed the flower of the working class youth into the pernicious path where the boundary line between the revolution and banditism was effaced. But the Communist Workers Party of Poland remained faithfully by its principles. Must Defend Themselves. The Communist Workers Party ac- knowledges the necessity of an im- mediate self defense against the provocation. We honor the heroic memory of Comrade Engel. But we recognize the need of self defense against the police-snakes. Our fight- ing method is a mass action of all the oppressed and exploited growing into the armed insurrection of the workers, farmers and soldiers against the capitalists and landlords. If in the course of this fight we shall find it necessary to organize proletarian fighting squads, they will be organized not for terrorist plots but in order to support the fighting class conscious masses. Our clean and open methods in the revolution- ary struggle justifies us to brand this ignominious provocation of the bour- geois and socialist opportunism against the revolutionary proletariat of Poland. We appeal for support to the labor opinion of all the world. Workers and farmers of the world, you shall know that in Poland stool- Pigeons are thriving with impunity. They carry bombs around with them which they use to frame up innno- cent victims and have them sent to the scaffold. From these frame-ups they derive monetary profits and po- litical jobs. You shall know that the madness of bourgeois militarism and provoca- tion endangers you and your families with ruin, and destruction. You shall know that this nightmare will not vanish until we will over- throw the rule of the bourgeois crim- inals by bold revolutionary fight un- der the leadership of the Communist Workers Party of Poland and estab- lish in Poland the revolutionary rule of the workers and farmers. Down with the government of ex- ploitation, unemployment, murder and provocation! Down with the Polish socialist party, the party of the flunkeys of the bourgeoisie!

The federated unions express their regret that the U. T. W. “conditions laid down... are exactly the same as always of- fered,” which Lawrence LaBrie, secretary of the federated un- ions, declares is “absorption of the Federated by the United, not amalgamation.” Call Proposition Fair. “The entirely fair proposition of the Federated Textile Unions of America, to hold a joint convention, where all points in dispute might be aired and decided, will intimate to all our at titude on the question of amaigama tion,” reads the Federated’s letter. “We would have abided by any de. cision of such a convention composed of the rank and file and ratified by the members,” concludes the Feder- ated’s answer. The United Textile Workers offered to allow other tex- tile workers’ organizations to come into its union under the U. T. W. con- stitution, which LaBrie and other Fed erated officers claim does not provide for the kind of organization in which the Federated unions wish to partict- pate. Claim 16,000 Members. The Federated Textile Unions claim 16,000 members, most of them in the American, Federation of Textile Oper- atives, workers in cotton and woolen mills. The Amalgamated Society of Lace Operatives, Tapestry Carpet Workers, Mulespinners, and a few local unions with no national organization are affil iated in the Federated Textile Unions. John Burns, president of the lace op eratives and a lace curtain worker himself, explains the organization as one of extreme decentralization. No elaborate offices are maintained and all officers work at their trades, he claims. In time of strike a small assessment never yet over 10 cents per worker, is levied on the organization to supply funds. The assessment is made after a strike has continued for four weeks. Say Trade is Organized. Burns says that his own trade is almost 100 per cent organized. Pat chogue, N. Y., and Zion, Ill, which is owned by Marshall Field and. where the lace operatives have struck three times for organization, are the only open shops.
