ACIP RRB AE | ee NNER to labof,” had endorsed the candidacy Page Two NELSON GETS IN BAD IN RABID JAB AT M'CABE Swabeck Helps Return Attack on Reactionary Disgust of the delegates to the Chicago Federation of Labor with the reactionary and under- hand tactics of Vice-President Oscar Nelson was clearly shown at the last meeting of the Fed- eration. A resolution recommending that the Chicago federation fol- low the example of the Illinois State Federation of Labor in conducting an investigation of the activities of Dawes, and pointing out in addition that Secretary of La- bor Davis, who is supposedly “friendly of Dawes, and that therefore Dawes and Davis must be of one mind, was| introduced by Delegate McCabe, repre- | sentative of Painters’ Union, Local No. 180. Nelson Clouds the Issue In spite of the fact that sentiment in the Federation ran one hundred per- cent against Dawes and Davis, Oscar Nelson attempted to cloud the issue by questioning the personal motives of McCabe. “It is not because Delegate McCabe wishes to dispel illusions concerning Davis that he introduces this resolu- tion,” said Nelson. “It is because McCabe has a personal grudge against Davis.’ Nelson accused McCabe of having Jeft the fraternal organization known as the Loyal Order of the Moose to accept a position with the Fraternal Order of Owls, and of having acted as “stool-pigeon” in one organization for the benefit of the other. For this reason, Nelson said, McCabe had in- curred the enmity of Davis, who is at the head of the Moose organization. Nelson went so far as to mention that McCabe had been in jail, and implied that his personal integrity was not above question. McCabe Returns Attack McCabe denounced the implication that he was a stool-pigeon and a spy. He told, too, how the time he“spent in jail was the result of persecution by an enormously wealthy corporation, and how he had been acquitted of the eharge placed against him—a fact which Nelson had failed to mention. Nelson’s efforts to cloud the issue Rt stake were roundly scored by Arne Bwabeck, delegate from Painters’ Lo- eal Union No. 194. Swabeck pointed put that connections of delegates with such organizations as the Loyal Order pf the Moose, or the Ancient Order of Owls, had nothing to do with the question of whether or not Dawes and Davis were enemies of labor. He showed that no one in the Federation questioned the anti-labor attitude of Dawes, and recalled the activity of Davis in introducing laws which would require every immigrant to have his finger-prints taken, thereby giving the government a chance to shadow him in all of his activities. Slander Typical of Nelson “The attack on Delegate McCabe is typical of ‘the tactics employed by Nelson,” was a charge brought by Bwabeck which brought thunderous applause from the delegates. A weak attempt on the part of Nel- son to justify his stand brought ex- pression of anger to the lips of the delegates present, and caused Del- egate, of the Painters’ Local 194, to leave the hall in disgust. A resolution asking that the Amer- fean Federation of Labor be requested, ft its 44th annual convention, to go n record as opposed to the imperial- ist tactics of American capitalists, and asking that the A. F. of L. employ all the power and influence of the or- ganized labor movement of the United States to compell the withdrawal of armed forces from foreign territory, was tabled at the instigation of Sec- retary Ed Nockles after the delegates had suggested tat it be referred to (Continued from page 1) illusion is the greatest obstacle to the development of the working class and its struggles.” Speaking of unemployment, Foster said: “I have come clear across the entire continent from the Pacific coast. I have spoken to audiences of workers everywhere, I am shocked at the widespread misery and unemploy- ment existing generally. More than half of the coal diggers of Illinois, where I had three meetings, are com- pletely out of work. The rest are working but a few days a week. I have just come here from New Eng- land and there thousands of textile workers are unemployed and their families living in misery and suffer- ing. These unemployment crises are, under éapitalism, a curse of the work- ers’ life. We want to stop this in- evitable unemployment of capitalist society. It is only by taking the gov- ernmental power into our own hands, by establishing a workers’ and farm- ers’ government, and abolishing the capitalist system and ownership of industry, that unemployment can be finally ended.” But Prepare for War. On the subject of war, Foster had this. to say: “The capitalist govern- ments talk peace in order to cover up their preparations for war. © Did you notice the volume of peace talk produced by the capitalist statesmen within the last two months? In Geneva, at the sessions of the as- sembly of the League of Nations, they talked peace. “In their parliaments they swore by peace, and the angel of peace was seen hovering over every governmental office of Europe and America. They indulged in an orgy of peace. It is the same kind of peace which existed THE DAILY WORKER (etree cee ca nate eaenemcnnrce Sen ese ene Meee eee Foster Exposes LaFollette’s Deals: | the world war. It is the false peace of the capitalists to hide their nefar- fous war measures. Join the Workers Party! “England and Turkey are at each other's throat over the ‘oil fields of Mosul. The United States and Japan are fighting each other for power in China with the aid of Chinese mer- cenaries, England and the United States are quickly mobilizing their forces in preparation for a toming showdown, while France and England are simply maneuvering for position as a first step towards new conflicts, “We must not delude ourselves about the ability of the workers to prevent new wars, as long as capital- ism remains*in power. The only way to fight war is to fight against capital- ist rule, for the workers to seize political power and to establish a workers’ and farmers’ government in the United States as well as in every other country. This can only be ac- complished by the building of a strong mass Communist Party.” Foster con- cluded with an appeal to join the Workers Party, American Section of the Communist International. | Foster Dates | SCRANTON, PA.—Labor Temple, 125 a Ave. Wednesday, Oct. 22, p.m. NEW_ HAVEN, CONN.—Hermansons pe 158 Crown St. Thursday, Oct. 23, D.

Then (continues Spolansky) he be- came frightened that his comrades would punish him as a traitor; where- upon he jumped from a 14-story win- dow, thus taking his own life. Jake is forced to admit in his ar- ticle, however, that “Elia never went so far as to make a full confession.” What he does not tell us is that no arrests or discoveries of any sort have been disclosed as a result of evidence supposed to have been furnished by either Elia or Salsedo. Following is the DAILY WORKER'S true story of the affair, compiled from information in the hands of the La- bor Defense Council. Unlawful Arrest. Because he was an alien, and be- cause Palmer had to have alien vic- tims for his “red raids,” Salsedo was unlawfully arrested for deportation, without a shred of evidence against him, on a warrant secured from the federal department of labor. The war- rant required the official executing it to grant his prisoner a hearing—that is, to take him to an immigrant sta- tion where he could be examined and could defend himself according to law before a duly authorized examining immigrant inspector. This was not done. From the hour of his arrest to the moment of his death, Salsedo was in the custody, all unknown to the department of labor, of secret ser- vice detectives. He was given no hearing such as the law required and the warrant of arrest commanded. An explanation of Sarseao’s cap- tivity was adopted by Mr. Palmer and his gumshoe gang, to the effect that Salsedo and Robert Elia were detain- ed by their own will in the Park Row building from which Salsedo’s body tumbled. “Subsequent to the issu- ance and before service of the war- rants could have been effected,” Palm- er declared, “Salsedo and Elia disclos- ed some very important information in connection with the bomb plot of June 2, 1919.” The “important inform- ation” referred to by Mr. Palmer is still a secret.

Wallace from the office of secretary of agriculture has: been tele- graphed to the White House from California by Benjamin C. Marsh, manag- ing director of the Farmers’ National Council.

No steps were taken meanwhile to- ward bringing the prisoners to an immigrant station for lawful custody and requisite legal hearing. But no sooner had the Salsedo homicide oc- curred than those same depatment of justice detectives hustled Elia out of their custody and into the custody of the immigrant officials at. Hillis Island. This spasmodic delivery of Elia to his lawful custodians is not easily reconcilable with a whole hearted acceptance of the theory that for the preceding two months he and Salsedo had been prisoners “by con- sent”—even if that kind of imprison- ment were not a legal novelty. n And the pretenses of the depart- ment of justice dicks, which have gone the way of all the other thrill- ing pretenses about bomb plots, are hardly consistent with the refusal of the department of justice to prosecute Elia, nor for their urgency in de manding his speedy deportation, “Third Degree” Caused Death. That the long detention of Salsedo and Elia by secret agents of the de- partment of justice in their building in New York was a gross violation of law is clear enough. It is also clear that this lawlessness on the part of the agents of capitalist law was accompanied with “third degree” cruelties culminating in Salsedo’s dramatic death. No investigation of the affair ap- pears to have been made, either by federal or by state authority. Nothing is definitely known except that Sal- sedo was lawlessly a prisoner, that he was ,held incommunicado in a secret prison controlled by detectives of the department of justice, that his prison was fourteen stories above the street, and that his body struck the pavement with an impact that turned it to a pulp.

The Labor Defense Council will continue to expose, thru the medium of the DAILY WORKER, the further “anti-red exposures” that Spolansky may cook up for the Chicago Daily News. Moteover, the Labor Defense Council has in the last few days come into possession of additional informa- tion concerning Spolansky himself.

Another gain of the union was the right to full-time pay for the days on which the drivers are required to work qnly part time. The bosses have been in the habit of hiring the men for a full day, sending them home after a few hours, and paying on the basis of time. spent in working. Hereafter, a full day’s hire will mean a full day’s pay. Only the packing of the convention hall by drivers who were right-hand men of the bosses prevented the driv- ers from gaining their demand for an eight-hour day and a vacation of two weeks. The hall at 220 S. Ashland avenue holds a hundred people. More than five hundred drivers were forced to wait outside of the hall while de- cisions were made inside. The DAILY WORKER led the way in acceding to the demands of the strikers. As soon as the demands of the drivers became known, the DAILY WORKER sent to the executive board of the union @ letter saying that it would grant willingly the demands that were finally put up. Drivers at work for the Communist paper voted to accept the settlement, and refrained from striking. By acceding to the demands of the strikers, the DAILY WORKER drew the line which would have t6 be toed by the other newspapers of the city. All of the papers settled with the men within a few hours. BORAH LUGS HIS SLUSH SLEUTHS TO WASHINGTON Not Much. Excitement is Expected (Special to-the Daily Worker) WASHINGTON, Oct. 20—Washing- ton, the fountain head of political cor- ruption, is agog these days with ex- pectancy over the announcement that Senator William HE. Borah intended to move his slush fund investigating committee to the Capitol. Washington likes investigations so well that it considers it a matter for protest to hold a probe anywhere else. Ever since Coolidge succeeded Hard- ing as chief tenant of the White House, it was one darned probe after another. The probes are by no means ended. They were simply adjourned until after the elections. Not so Exciting. The probe into the slush fund is not expected to be as sensational as the other quizzes, It looks like the united front of the democrats and LaFolletteites against the republicans. It is purely a case of envy and political campaigning. All capitalist parties are making frantic appeals for funds and the class lines are not drawn. But the big capitalists are putting their money behind Cal knowing that Davis hasn’t a chance, tho it is an open secret that he is looked upon with much favor by the big fellows. Frank P. Walsh who is the leading interrogator for Senator LaFollette expects to have associated with him in the task of making the republican boodle hounds talk, Samuel Unter- myer of New York, a democrat and prominent supporter of Davis.

TODAY, there are still a few pretenders left to the fallen throne of the Russian czars. But the world is taking them less and less seriously. This is true even of the capital- ist world,sthat has troubles of its own, Even the correspondents of the Si press are getting tired of sending out propaganda for “lost hopes.” Milton Bronner, for instance, in his correspondence to the Buffalo Evening Times, has a laugh all his own at the pretensions of Cyril Romanoff, cousin of the late Czar Nicholas II, to the title of czar. e ° * * The “grand duke” has his adherents, a dwindling num- ber, outside the borders of Soviet Russia. Fearing that no one would soon be left to pay any attention to him, the duke recently issued a pronunciamento from ‘his retreat at Co- burg, Germany, calling himself the czar of the Russians, and a lot of other things. The correspondent, Bronner, thereupon, decided to issue a proclamation on his own account, claiming it to be more ‘fitting to the times than the duke’s own declaration. Bron- ner’s effort is worth preserving, in that it repeats to a great extent, what Communists have been contending these last seven years. Bronner’s effort on behalf of the duke reads as follows: THE LAST OF THE ROMANOFFS. “1, Cyril Romanoff, by virtue of my cousinship with the late Czar Nicholas II, and spurred on by various kinsmen and advisers, hereby proclaim myself czar of all the Russias — outside of Russia. “I announce myself: fi “Grand Duke of New York's phantom Russia. “Grand Duke of London’s little Russia. “Grand Duke of Paris’ make-believe Russia. “Grand Duke of Berlin’s transplanted Ri “I proclaim myself the titular ruler of all the charming Russian princess who escaped with their lives and their ropes of pearls; of all the noblemen who saved their sking and their English bonds and stocks; of all the ‘poor’ Russian to be seen in Europe’s great capitals eating expensive meals, drinking costly wines and dancing in the gay cabarets, . “Incidentally, | am also ruler of the real Russian patriots who lost their all in the revolution, and who are now to be seen peddling matches on Galata Bridge in Constantinople, acting as waiters in German restaurants; singing in Parisian cafes, and otherwise eking «out a bare living.” It is seven years now, since that Red November Day, Nov. 7, 1917, when the Bolsheviks took power in Russia, that the grand dukes have been hanging around the seats of capitalist power, in Europe, and in the United States, hoping for the return of czarist rule at Moscow. But today-the throne room, in Moscow’s Kremlin, of the czardom that is gone, thunders with the applause that greets the remarks of Georg Chicherin, commissar of foreign affairs of the Workers’ Republic. That applause doesn’t sound so good to the ears of the self-styled grand duke, in far-off Germany, no more than it does to the ears of the for- eign ambassadors in Moscow who are in attendance at the meeting of the All-Russian Executive Committee. Chicherin declares that the world’s imperialists, who thru the Dawes plan turned Germany into a vassal state, now seek to destroy Soviet Russia’s independence in devious ways. . yNever,” cried Chicherin, “will they: succeed. We will fight back such attempts with every means at our com- mand.” . ° * ° ° Chicherin warns that the imperialists of the Versailles peace, joined by the United States thru the Dawes plan, may now attempt to draw Germany into the combination against Soviet Russia. This is the Germany with its socialist presi- dent, Fritz Ebert, that provides a sanctuary, to the scum of the fallen czardom, and becomes an ally of world imperial- ism. This is the Germany of the Second (Socialist) Inter- national that recently tried to strike a new blow at Soviet Russia thru plotting for the overthrow of Soviet Rule in Georgia. But the counter-revolutionary effort in fone failed most miserably.

Two delegates to the cenvention withdrew as delegates just before ad- journment yesterday, on the ground that the cenvention is prejudiced in favor of the Doyle-Fisher group. The delegates, Matt Johnson and Pat Campbell, did not take part in yester- day’s session.

He then launched into an explanation of the movement headed by Senator LaFollette. “The LaFollette movement finds its basis in the discontent of the small manufacturer and property owner with the dominance of Wall Street. The fact that many labor unions have thrown their support to LaFollette does not make of the LaFollette group a labor group, for leaders of the La- Follette type neither can nor will act in the interest of the workers.
