Page Four sonvowemen, WORKERS CHEER. FIGHT TO SAVE POLISH COMRADE iomeands. Demand the Release of Lanzutsky (Continued on page 2) NEW YORK, March 29—An enthu- siastic meeting took place March 26, at the Central Opera House under the slogan “Hands Off Comrade Lanzut- sky.” Each mention of the name of Stanislav Lanzutsky brought forth a storm of applause. The heroism of this comrade, who has defied the entire Polish bourgeoisie, knowing that death might be the penalty, command the admiration of the working class of the ‘world. Comrade Weinstone, who opened the meeting as chairman, spoke about the importance of the meeting, “This meeting has been called by the Work- ers Party, the Young Worke and the *International Workers to take up three important matters: the threatened execution of Stanislav Lanzutsky, the oppression and perse- eution of the masses of revolutionary workers thruout the world, and the appearance in the field of relief for Political prisoners of a new committee called the “International Committee for Political Prisoners.” Benny And The Lion “When Mussolini left his sick bed,” said Comrade Lore, “his first visit was to the zoological garden, where he petted his favorite lion cub. In sweet tones he said to the young lion, ‘You and I have won.’ Yes, Mussolini has won—sham capitalist democracy has given way to fascism in many coun- tries of Europe.” Comrade Lore then traced the actions of fascism thru the various countries of Europe, where destruction of the working class move- Ment is its only goal. “We have our Mussolini also in America,” said Comrade Manley. “The chief Mussloini is John L. Lewis, czar of the miner’s union. And then we have the minor Mussolinis—such as Hutcheson, the tyrant of the carpent- ers’ union, and ‘Comrade’ Sigman of the needle trades. We have trade union government just as we have capitalist ‘government, and we find that the trade union government is an adjunct of the capitalist govern- ment.” Comrade Manley demonstrated what the Communists have to fight in the trade union movement—persecu- tion, expulsion and intimidation. “But the Communists will not rest until they have swept all capitalist government ott ofthe way and have established a government of the workers, as our brothers have done in Soviet Russia.” ‘ Orgy of Blood “Since the world war, the imperial- ists have staged an orgy of blood against the workers and poor peas- ants of the world,” said Comrade Am- ter. “They have attempted to shift the burdens of the war on to the should- ers of the workers and peasants. Re- bellion has resulted—and the imperial- ists and their vassals have stopped at nothing to crush the organized move- ment of the workers.” “Those who are in jail in capitalist countries are there for a specific rea- son,” said Comrade Bentall. “They have gone there because they have IN NEW YORK CITY; WORK IS MA (Special to The their contention was wrong. form of organization was in the United lei form.

The shop nuclei weld all our com- rades in the factories into a compact organization that dailysconcerns itself with the workers’ struggles and cor tinually fights in their interest. It gives us an organization working class in character that functions on the field of the class struggle,in the factories where the workers are ex- ploited. i From a loose organization the party is transformed-into an organization of action with actual contacts with the masses in the factories. Such an or- ganization in the degree that it can win influence among the workers can be more easily mobilized to lead the workers out of the factories in mass action when the party so desires, The shop nuclei form of organiza- tion because it includes all the Com- munists who work in the factories transforms the party membership into a homogeneous mass in the various shops instead of into separate enti- ties according to language and terri- torial divisions as we have today. New York Spur to Nation. Shop nuclei organization will make centralization and real unity of action possible. The New York experiences in this field should spur the party-or- ganizations in other districts to do likewise. Last week I reported in the’ DAILY WORKER about six shop nuclei that were organized. In this article I Will briefly give an account of the five aij ditional nuclei that have since conte | into existence. Five More Nuclei Organized. Shop nuclei No. 8 was organized March 3rd in a shoe factory in Brook lyn employing 40 workers. The sec-| retary of the nucleus is chairman of the joint council of all the locals of the union he belongs to. Shop Nucleus No. 9 organized March March 15 in a dress shop that em- ploys 225 workers.

On shop matters the two nuclei meet and act together. Shop Nucleus No. 10 organized March 19 in a men’s clothing factory in Long Island City. A meeting of the workers who sympathize with the party will be called soon and the nu cleus expects to enroll 15 new mem- bers in the nucleus. This factory is organized and its workers belong to the Amalgamated Clothing Workers. The boss, together with the reaction- ary officials of the union control this shop. The nucleus is going to make an effort to chapge all this. Their activity will be well worth watching. Shop Nucleus No. 11 was organ- ized March 23 in a nonunioh machine shop that employs 40 workers. The nucleus expects to unionize this shop in the very near future. Shop Nucleus No. 12 was organized March 27 in a unionized dress shop that employes 45 workers. The shop chairman is the secretary of this nu- cleus and the nucleus has two of its members on the shop committee that consists of four workers. On Saturday afternoon, March 21, a very successful shop nuclei organiza- tion meetipg was held in this district of all the party members who work between 14th and 42nd streets. As a result of this meeting plans were laid for the organization in this district in the coming two weeks of about 10 new nuclei. This Saturday a nucleus will be or- {ganized in one of the biggest factories in the district. We expect to start the nucleus with a membership of at least 25 comrades. Urge Party Based on Nuclei. Shop Nucleus No. 1 which increased its membership from 3 to 15 in less |than two months’ time expects in the next week to issue the first shop pa- per ever written by workers in the United States. Comrades watch the nuclei that are functioning in New York. They will demonstrate what a Communist party based on shop nuclei can do. dared to fight for a principle. thes | could get free, every one of them, if they would desert their principles.

Straight jackets are the garb in which they are placed when they refuse to accept the harsh prison ré- gime. But they stick—and the work ers of this country will support them.” Comrade Bentall then made an appeal for the International Workers’ Aid.

A little return for what the British and Irish workers did for them during | the dark days of 1924, was the way the workers of Saxony expressed them- | selves. From workers to workers!

Five hundred and sixty signatures were obtained by the St. Louis com: rades in a short space of time, but the legal requirements were 1,000. Further the election commissioners put additional difficulties in the way of getting Communist candidates on the ballot by declaring that everyone of the signors to a petition, that is a thousand of them individually or per- sonally had to appear before a notary public and declare that they wanted the name of John Braun as candidate ticket. In addition the.election com- missioners demanded $250.00 filing fee. These capitalistic demands could not, of course, be met by our working class group at this time. perience will be needed. However, the comrades will go.ahead with the campaign holding the meeting on April 2. . Will distribute the party program and other literature and try to hold street meetings. NEW DEPORTATION LAW THREATENS FOREIGN BORN Protest Meeting on Next Friday NEW YORK CITY, Mareh 29—The foreign-born workers’ of this country face a new campaign of persecution. The government is now enacting a new bill that puts the fate of every foreign-born worker in the United States in the hand of a petty official. Any personal enemy Of the worker may denounce him to the police—he is dragged before the jigration of: ficer, and ordered to be deported. He cannot have counsel, He éannot take the matter to court eyen if he has been in this country for a generation, he must pack his belongings and get out of this “democratic” country. This is a direct attack on the for- eign-born workers. It is an attack on the militant trade union movement of the country, for a large part of the militants, radicals and revolutionaries in the trade unions are foreign -born workers. Attack Secretly. It is most significant that the capi- talists smuggled this, bill into con- gress without anybody knowing any- thing about it. It is also significant that the capitalist press has remained silent on the proposal... The workers are to be faced with the accomplished fact and be forced to accept the con- sequences. The bill has been passed by the hduse of representatives and will come before the.senate, The workers of the United States must awake to the seriousness of the situation. The capitalists are again trying to divide the native from the foreign-born work: ers. They are doing this with the in. tention of exploiting all of them more intensely. Demonstration Rally Next Friday. This must not be’ allowed. The workers of New York will demon- strate that they will not tolerate thie new step of the capitalists and the capitalist government against them. On Friday, April 3, at 8 p, m. they will assemble at the, Manhattan Ly- ceum, 66 East 4th street, and let the government of the ‘United States know in definite te: that the “New deportation law must go!” The meeting has been arranged by the Labor Defense Council, and all workers must attend.

Bosses While Workers Starve Cash dividends totalling 647 per cent in 10 years is the record achieved by Utah Copper Co. with its 1924 re- port, Its mine, mill and smelter workers are sweating for wages less than 50 per cent above 1914 in the face of a cost of living which has in- creased more than 70 per cent. At times during the 10 years their wages represented only about one-fifth of the price paid by consumers while the owners were taking one-half in rents, royalties and profits. For 1924 Utah reports a profit of $9,090,109, giving common stockholders a return of 64.4 per cent on their investment. The National Tea Co.,. known to most housewives, turns in the highest profit in its history. A net profit of $1,472,993 after all deductions means $27,66 a share on the no-par common stock. But as each share stands for an investment of about $20 this profit is a return of 138 per cent for a single year’s business. After generous divi- dends this company retains undivided Profits more than 5% times the com- mon stock. The American Radiator Co. reports @ 1924 profit of $11,153,728 after all taxes and interest charges have been paid. This means more than 34 per cent on the present par value of the common stock. But within less than 10. years there have been three 50 ber cent stock dividends increasing the stockholders’ investment by near- ly 240 per cent without their risking an additional cent in the business. So the 1924 earnings mean a return of about 115 per cent. The Otis Elevator Co. is another concern which has helped jack up the cost of building. Its 1924 profit of $4,161,510 means over 23 per cent on the common stock and if recent stock dividends are taken into account it appears .that stockholders have a profit of over 38 per cent. The Fleischmann Co., with its toll on a large part of the country’s bread- stuffs, shows net incomes after taxes and interest charges amounting to $9,843,233, about 29 per cent for the owners of common stock. The North American Co., a holding company owning public utilities serv- ing over 7,000,000 customers, reported @ profit “of $10,582,764,~ equivalent to 31% per cent on the stockholder’s in vestment. But for return on investment the Orpheum Circuit Corp. is in a class by itself. The 1924 net income of $2, 897,314 means a return of $4.29 on each $1 invested by common stock holders or 42 9 peecrtn. Cash divi- dends are running at the annual rate of 150 per cent, Evidently amuse- ment is one of the aspects of life which communities could provide much more reasonably on a co-opera- tive basis.

Save The Movement The. statement calls on the workers and poor farmers of Minnesota to save the Farmer-Labor Federation, from the political harples who are now try- ing to destroy it. These vultures have organized a fake “farmer-labor organization” instead. The Workers (Communist) Party circular lays bare the treachery of the disrupters of the Farmer-Labor Federation, and calls on the workers to support the Commun- ists in their fight to defeat the reac- tionaries, 75,000 copies of a leaflet al- ready published in the DAILY WORK- ER, dealing with the fake unity con- vention have been distributed and 10,000 copies of the following circular are. being distributed thruout the state: Appeal to Workers, “To all local unions, farmers’ organ- izations, co-operatives, workers and farmers, Brothers:— “A farmer-labor party, under the control of actual workers and farm- ers, giving expression to your econ- omic and political needs, is a real asset tq the workers and farmers of Minnesota, But—a farmer-labor party, under the control of a group of law- yers, editors, and self-seeking polit- it@ians, giving expression to a purely middle class program, a program satis- factory to the merchants and’ small- town bankers, is the greatest obstacle that the workers and poor farmers must face in their road to a workers’ and farmers’ government. “In Minnesota you are faced with the latter situation. You are faced with the problem of regaining control of the organization which was brought into existence and developed into a political power by you—the rank and file of the farmer-labor party. Fake Organization “At the convention held in St. Paul on March 20, (a convention called and attended almost exclusively by busi- ness and professional men, reaction, ary labor union officials, office holders and office seekers) a so-called ‘farmer- labor association’ was formea. The group dominating this convention first gained ‘capitalist respectability’ by de- claring that no Communist would be permitted to remain in this conven- tion, nor would they be permitted to become members of the association. The raising of the issue of Commun- ism was not actuated by sincere mo- tives, but was merely a smoke screen thrown around the convention to cover up the betrayal of the farmers and workers and the turning of the lead- ership of the party over to a group of middle class politicians. As is usual! when a group sets out to do a job such as was done in St. Paul, they stooped to the most contemptable mis- representation of the Workers (Com- munist) Party, its program, and its members: “In answer to their charges, we wish to state emphatically that the Workers, (Communist) Party is to- day and always has been whole-heart- edly in favér of the unity of all work- ers and poor farmers in a farmer-labor party on the basis of a program re- presenting only the class interests of the workers and farmers, Further- more, we will in the future always fight for such unity and for such a program—even though it becomes ne- cessary to offend some of the present leaders who do not and never did re- present your interests. The Workers (Communist) Party, as a party com- posed exclusively of workers and farmers, has pledged itself to the we reach that goal and we call upon the workers and farmers to unite with us, to join our party and support us in that struggle. As a party serving only the interests of the workers and farmers, we support all moves made by them to strengthen and unify their forces, For that reason, we have al- ways supported the farmer-labor party in Minnesota in all its campaigns. We have, however, just as conststently refused to support the, leaders of the party in their compromises with the old capitalist parties and in their ef- forts to turn the party over to a group of office seekers who were interested —not in fighting for your intereste— but rather for their own political ad- vancement. The Reactionary Menace “The curse of any working class political movement is—not the radical, as they would have you believe—but the ambitious office seeker who is willing to sell out the party to cap- italist elements in return for a polit- ical job for himself. “The Workers (Communist) Party pledges its aid to the rank and file of the farmer-labor party in the crisis with which your party is faced as a result of the organization of the ‘farmer-labor association’ at the con- vention held in St. Paul on March 20. This association does not now nor ever will fight for your interests. It is completely under the control of middle class elements and if permitted to continue its usurpation of power, it will absolutely destroy the farmer- labor party as a weapon with which to carry on your struggle. “The Farmer-Labor Federation (which they are trying to destroy) is . the only organization in Minnesota, outside of the Workers (Communist) Party, that can be made into a fight- ing weapon to carry on the struggle of the workers and farmers against the c&pitalist class. We call upon you ; to save the Federation—to built it inte a powerful organization—to refuse ta be misled into turning it over to a group that will only use it as a club #| against you in the fight. “Take this question up in your un- ion—in your farmers’ organizatioh— in your co-operative—or—in your ward or townshipvclub, Ask them to support the Workers (Communist) Party on the basis of the following demands: : “Down with the leadership of mid- dle class politicians! “Support the Farmer-Labor Federa- tion! “Demand a special Farmer-Labor Federation convention at once! “Forward to a Workers’ and Farm- ers’ government! .
