as — Page Four UPPER SILESIA TURNS TO REDS, “MANY JOBLESS Financial ‘Crisis in Po- land Impends BERLIN, Germany, July 22.—The workers of Polish Upper Silesia are increasing their demand for a Soviet government, and have struck terror into the Polish government, reports here disclose. aig The Polish government and Ger- many have been carrying on a tariff war, and as a result the steel plants and coal mines of Upper Silesia, which ordinarily export 350,000 tons a month to Germany, are closing down. Thousands are out of work. Then rapid spread of Communist ideas among the workers has prompt- ed the Warsaw government to at- tempt negotiations with Germany on the tariff situation. There are 100,- 000 men out of work in the district of Kattowits alone. The Polish government has increas- ed the intensity of the situation by calling the Silesian reservists to the army despite the convention liberat- ing the inhabitants of the region from military service for eight years. A financial crisis looms in Poland. The government is unable to pay doles’ to the unemployed. Forty per cent of Poland’s foreign trade is with Germany, and with this cut off, Po- land's economic and financial condi- » tion is bad. Building Permits in Chicago Still Break aM records for Chicago and Cook county and those issted for this month up until last Saturday total more than $13,000,000, according to the citizens’ committee to enforce the Landis scabby open shop. The total value of permits to date for this year exceeds already $210,- 000,000, which is $39,000,000 more than for the same period of 1924 and $12,000,000 more than for the same period of 1923, the latter being class- ed as a banner builditig year in Chi- cago’s history. The Landis award contractors are securing a goodly percentage of the new construction work and 33 per cent of the value of permits have been awarded to Landis award con- tractors since July, asserted the open shop outfit.

War has been declared in the building trades, one international against | another international, the Bricklayers against the Plasterers and Cement Finishers and within the internationals themselves we find the offictals of one local attacking those of another local. Not only is this taking place within the organizations of skilled workers, but also among the unskilled laborers, hodcarriers, etc. Altho large internationals have gone on records for amalgamation, nevertheless it is just a scrap of paper as far as the officials are concerned, unless the rank and file led by the +~ left wing fight to carry it out. Officials Attack Each Other, Within the locals of the Internation- al Hod Carriers, Building Laborers and common laborer’ unions of Ame- rica we find the officials of one local attacking those of another even t the extent of not recognizing the per- mits issued by different locals. An example of this was clearly de- monstrated the other day on one of the big construction jobs in the city. A worker applied for membership in Local No. 3, of the I. H. C. B. L. s & C. F. U. of A. a permit being is- sued, No. 587 dated May 6, 1925, on which $15.00 was paid. This permit was issued to the worker while em- ployed on a large building under con- struction and entitled him to work- ing privileges for some time to come. The worker after a few days, was laid off and he found employment on a cement construction job doing work on side walls and curbs and gutters. Forced to Change Local. This work is considered under the jurisdiction of Local No. 76 of the same International. After working for a few days on this job one of the business agents came out to the job in question, asked this worker, among others, to sign up in Local No: 76 in order to work. The iniation fees for membership in the locals in Chicago of the I. H. C. B. L. & C. F. U, of A. is fifty dollars. In order for the worker to hold 76, not being familiar with the situ- ation within the union, and in doing so losing the money paid on the per- mit issued by Local No. 3. While we workers who have union All Previous Records his job he signed up with Local No. e permits are still breaking {cards in good standing are allowed to work on any or all construction work, after a bitter fight some years ago, nevertheless, the same rights should and must be given to those workers who are employed on per- mits, Fat Salaries of B. A.’s In Chicago alone there are al great number of local unions of this same international, each having from three to six business agents, receiving their fat salaries of sixty-five to one hun- dred dollars per week and expenses and the expenses run high, to hear the reports given at union meetings. It is this fear of losing the. fat “pie qcards” that they fight against amal- gamation of the locals into one in- dustrial union. Thus doing away with some of the useless officer's and the expense which falls upon the shoul- ders of the exploited workers. Left Wing Only Hope. This can be stopped only, if the rank and file, led by the left wing, unite and throw off some of these || useless officials who are in these unions for their own interest first and the union members second. They fear losing their fat jobs thru amalgama- tion of all building trades unions in- to industrial unions, Bore Way to $75,000 CHICAGO—Boring thru a two foot brick wall, fur bandits early today made away with $75,000 worth of furs from the wholesale establishment of Kaiser and company in a loop build- ing. COAL OPERATORS PLAY CONFIDENCE CAME ON MINERS Want The. to Work Without Any Pay (Special to The Daily Worker) TRIADELPHIA, W. Va., July 22— Mines No. 2 and 3 are idle here, as a result of the Paisley Coal Company trying to force the miners to work up to August 25th, without any pay. The Lucy mine at Stewartsville, Ohio, is idle for the same reason. The Company claims that they are un- able to pay the miners before that time, as they (the company) will not be able to get the money sooner. The contract existing between the men and the coal company calls for pay days on the 10 and 25th of each month, and the men are determined to force the company to live up to the contract. The miners remember that many of their brothers in Tllinois, have been forced to do without their pay now for over 18 months as a result of a similar scheme. Stole Miners Pay. The miners in Pickneyville, Du- quoin, Sessor and other places in district 12, worked for over a month and have received nothing for their work. This happened over a year ago and there is no prospects yet for any pay. In one mine the men went back to work, on the promise of pay and worked another month, then shut down again, and paid the men nothing for that month either, making two months pay that this company owes the men. Another coal company had the men go to work and put the shaft in opera- tion, clean up the roads, falls, timber where necessary, and put it in ‘a position ready to start, then as sud- denly shut down again and the men got beat out of this also. No \wonder the men here are re- fusing to work a month or six weeks without pay. They rememper the Illinois steals, and as one man said he don’t propose to give his labor in charity to the thieving coal barons. Subscribe for the DAILY WORKER.

ALL KINDS OF REFRESHMENTS AND AMUSEMENTS. | (Continu from page 1) hands, It has till 1926 to accomplish this and therefore has plenty of time to employ !ts wearing-down policy be- fore making the direct attack. Many Workers Fired In the bull fight, the bull is jabbed at and slashed and then the fighter retreats, returns to the attack and retreats again, bewilders, mystifies and tires the bull, and at last, when It is wearied out exhausted, confused, the bullfighter closes in for the “Kill”; so the government has been playing with the railwaymen for six months, threatening, witholding pay, cutting wages, changing working con- ditions, yielding again and retreating, and then returning to the attack; threatening to fire 40,000 and then lischarging only a few odd thousand, threatening to apply big wage cuts and then applying only little ones, and thus slowly confusing, tiring, wearing down and demoralizing the railway unions. There have been two “psychologi- cal” moments thus far, for a rail strike; but on both occasions the ti- ridity of the leaders and the tactical ‘<ill of the government, prevented the en from utilizing the appropriate noment for the general strike. The first of the two occasions, was at the beginning of the year when the government ordered all railwaymen to take the oath of loyalty administered to government employees. The sec- ond was July first when the “read- justments” were scheduled to go into effect. Official Refuse to Call Strike The week or so before July first, as the government announced it was to drop 40,000 men, cut wages from 10 to 60 per cent and make many un- favorable modifications of working conditions, there was an epidemic of local and partial strikes thruout the system, The men got ready for a general strike July first. Resolutions poured into the national headquarters of the railway unions promising support for the strike. The Communist Party named committees of action every- where, which had as their principal purpose the securing of solidarity on the fart of the peasant and the work- ers organized in other federations. These committees worked in close touch with local strike committees of the railwaymen. The eve of July first saw partial strikes everywhere. The strikes were complete in all important shops. Two seccessive Sundays all the mechanics went out because un- der the new conditions they were not to receive double time for Sunday. The carpenters struck two successive Saturday afternoons for the forty- four hour week. In a frontal attack, the government would have been powerless. The government responded to the criti¢al situation with new suggest- ions for parleys, with promises to re- consider some of the “readjustments” and to put them into effect gradually, during a period of three months. Union Leaders Cowardly The leaders of the railwaymen, with one or two exceptiéns, are not cor- rupt. But almost without exception they are cowardly, timid and “respect- able,” ready for almost anything but a direct fight against the government; ready to accept any excuse for post- poning the fight or for evading it. The leaders of the trainmen asked for more time to “prepare” their mem- bership for the strike. The others, glad of an excuse to evade the fight, declared that they must wait for a unanimous strike vote. Communist Manifesto Unites Workers A wave of protest began among the railway masses. A timely manifesto of the Communist Party gave this pro- Mexican Rail Unions Must Strike or Die test ‘cohesion and direction, and from every rallway center came a flood of messages and telegrams: “Vote the. strike before it 1s too late. Vote the strike before demoralization sets in.” On Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June, 26, 27, 28, great numbers of rail- waymen were in permanent session with the trade union committee of the Communist party, seeking advice and direction for the strike that every one expected to break out July 1. On Monday night, June 29., there wag, to bea general meeting to consider the question, Calles Deports Wolfe On Monday morning, President Cal- les responded to the critical situation with characteristic energy and skill, He seized and deported a foreign Communist, Bertram D. Wolfe, issued a statement that the strike was or- dered’ “by the Third International” for ‘political: purposes; and’ atother statement that he, was willing to con- fer with the men on minor details of the readjustments and that they would be applied gradually’ between’ July and November. Leaders Give In To Calles The railwaymen’s leaders fell into the double trap. They entered into renewed conferences thus confusing and weakening the strike spirit; and they disclaimed their connections with Communism and their intention of “causing difficulties for the goyern- ment.” Both of these acts definitely lowered the morale of the members of the unions, More Local Strikes July 10 finds the “readjustments” still not accomplished. The unions are not demoralized in spite of the wavering of their leaders. A new wave of partial strikes is beginning as indicated by the strike of the Puebla division caused by a mere two hours delay in pay. The Communist Party rapidly orientated itself to the new situation and, abandoning its double united front with the leaders and masses, began a new campaign of mass pressure from below to force the leaders to a strike dectston. The Calles government tssues new conciliatory statements about gra- dually affecting the readjustments be- tween now and December. And so the situation stands, The delay is more unfavorable to the railwaymen than to the government, because it, gives the government time to prepare, to seek to corrupt certain elements in the unions (never a hard task in Mexico) and to sow division and de- moralization. Men Must Fight If the government cannot destroy the unions before the end of the year, it must force a strike, as the lines must be given back in 1926, without deficit, without high wages and with- out fighting unions. If the men want to save their wages and working con- ditions, they must fight. The longer they. wait the worse for them. A strike.may break out at any time. It may not come till the end of the year, or it may be postponed till the govern- ment has succeeded in demoralizing and breaking the rail unions. But one thing is sure—it is “strike or des- truction.” If the rail unions go down the most powerful group of unions independent of the government will have been des- troyed and the wage levet of the en- tire working class lowered. If they win out of their victory will grow a national federation of independent unions, and, thanks to the role of the Communist Party enjoying the con- fidence .of the entire militant work- ing class. Such are the stakes. The issue is difficult to predict. But the fight must be fought. MASS MEETING AGAINST POLISH TERROR IN N. Y, Workers. Voice Protest at Manhattan Lyceum NEW YORK, July 22—A mass de- monstration against Polish imperial- ism and persecution of revolutionary workers will take place on“ Wednes- day, July 22, 8 p. m., at Manhattan Lyceum, 66 Hast 4th street, under the auspices of the Workers Party, Local New York. The occasion for this meeting is the arrival in the United States of Count Alex. Skrzynski, Polish minister for foreign affairs. The . count comes here ostensibly’ on a mission of ‘peace” to lecture at the Institute of Politics, at Williamstown, Mass. and disavows any financial or political aims. There is no doubt, however, that the Polish minister is here to negotiate a loan to Poland, and get the backing of the United States gov- ernment and American. financial in- terests for its militarist-imperialist designs -and its brutal crushing of the revolutionary workers.of Poland. The workers of New York, of all nationalities, must join in a rousing protest at Manhattan Lyceum next Wednesday against the murderous im- perialists and jingoists of Poland. Prominent speakers in English, Po- lish, Ukrainian, and Jewish will ad- dress the meeting, among them being Earl Browder, member of the Central Executive Committee of the Workers Party, and Thadeus Radwanski, editor of the Novy Mir and one of the most powerful orators in the Polish revolu- tionary movement.

Darwinian Theory of Evolution Plays an Important Part in Class Struggle MARXISM AND DARWINISM By Anton Pannekoek (translated by Nathan Weiser), published by Chas. Kerr and company. Order from the DAILY WORKER, 1113 W. Washing- ton Bivd., Chicago, III. o- Reviewed by Kar! Reeve (HH Darwinian theory of evolution is playing {ts role in the class struggle today, exemplified in the Scopes trial at Dayton, Tennessee, just as it has been used as an instru- ment in the class struggle in the past, as we learn from Anton Pannekoek’s book. In Europe, Darwinism was used by the bourgeoisie in the strug- gle against the feudal lords, and was of inestimable service in smashing the religious tradition and the theory of “divine rights” on which the feudal- istic system leaned. Anton Pannekoek, a Dutch profes- sor of astronomy, is now in the anti- parliamentary group in Holland. He has for many years taken part in the revolutionary movement in Europe. Panneokoek was criticized by Lenin for his extreme left, anti-parliament- ary views. Pannekoek, under the name of Hor- ner, wrote for the German revolution- ary press. He is a friend of Gorter, and with him fought in the left wing of the Holland social-democratic party. Pannekoek took part in many dis- cussions in the second international, And always was in the left wing, tak- ing the revolutionary position against the mensheviks. He crossed swords _ with Kautsky several times. Panne- koek was one of the founders of the Communist Party of Holland | “Darwin’s theory that man is the descendant of the lower animal de- stroyed the entire foundation of chris- tian dogma,” says Pannekoek. UT a new enemy of the bourgeoisie and the remnants of the feudal system alike sprang up out of the capitalist system of production—the industrial _ proletariat. The’ bour- geois, threatened by the growing pow- er of the workers, took up the same tool which had been used to lull the discontent of the serfs, Religion has been brought “up to date.” Darwinism is now perverted and “interpreted,” as a means of “saving christianity,” and using it to perpetuate the profit system. In the Scopes case) we see the “modernist” the religionist attempting to prestige of the church, Clarence Darrow, is acting as the mouthpiece of the ruling class. “We want to prove that the theory of evo- lution is not in conflict with the div: ine origin of man,” Darrow told the court. “While there is not a soul on earth who believes the whole bible literally, we will not attack it, but merely prove that the bible and sci- ence can be reconciled.” The capitalist buys the brains of the professors and scientists for the two-fold purpose of perfecting the technique of production and of mask- ing the exposure of religion by science with “symbolical” interpretation. HE estimation of science hag un- dergone a change,” says Panne- koek. “Mysticiem has gained the up- per hand, All that was solved ap- save enter as very trivial, while all things and issued the slogan that the masses must be brought to religion, that remained unsolved appear as em- bracing the most important life ques- tion.” “Darwinism has been of inestim- able service to the bourgeoisie in its Struggle against the old powers. It was therefore only natural that bour- geoisdom should apply it against its later enemies, the proletartan: In the Dayton evolution case the antiquated Bryan represents the rem- nants of the old order, which natural- ly enough, has its stronghold in the backward “solid” south. Bryan i still fighting the fight of the feudal lords against the capitalistic inter- pretation of Darwinism, and will ac- cept no compromise. “Religion and science do conflict,” he says, “and science must be suppressed.” It is for this reason that the allies of the capitalists, the middle class lib- erals, the socialists and the “progres- sives,” aré lined up with modern capi- talism, against the remnants of feudal ism. HE socialist party organ, the Mil- waukee Leader, in an editorial significantly entitled, “Evolutionists Defend Religion,” says, “Anyone who thinks that the Leader opposes relig- jon when it espouses evolution, is en- triely wrong. This paper 1s not irre- ligious, and it never attacks religion, either expressly of impliedly. In tak- ing the side of the defense in the Scopes’ case, The Leader is champion- ing the cause of religion.” And Dr. Maynard M. Metcalf, re- cently appointed research assogiate in zoology at Johns Hopkins university, testified that he believed in evolution and was a member of the congrega- tonal church, having taught a , bible em ge class in Boltimore. Metcalf, like all the other goose step professors thru- out the country, who are paid to teach what big busingess tells them to teach, says that evolution and the bible do not conflict. Class col!aboration” and ownership of trade union officials have proved more efficient weapons against the workers in the unions. And mystical interpretations of bible is. more efficient in doping the workers with religion than a crasi tempt to make them believe in miracles. The capi- talists well know this, as is seen by the fact that John D. Rockeféller, Jr., oil king, is about to build a fashion- able church for one of the best known modernist preachers in New York. What Evolution Teaches. Darwinism teaches us that the ani- mal world may be arranged into div- isions and subdivisions. The animal classes were not created individually, but descended one from another, The highest organisms have descended from primitive beings having but one cell. Under certain conditions, some animal kinds will necessarily develop into other animal kind. Parents trans- mit their peculiarities to children, but ut the same time the children diverge from their parents in some respects and also differ from each other, ARWIN’S theory of the “struggle for existence,” shows that favor- able variations in animals and plants tend to be preserved and unfavorable ones to be destroyed. Those which are best adapted to existing conditions survive, and new species are produced from the old ones. ‘jf ‘What is the relation between Marx- {sm and Darwinism? “Both tgjph- ttl ings,” says Pannekoek, “the teachings of Darwin and of Marx, the one in the domain of the ORGANIC world, and the other upon the field of HUMAN SOCIETY, raised the theory of evolu- tion to a positive science.” “Marx proved that class distinction were owing to the various functions each played in the productive process. The methods of production have con- tinuously changed with the progress of time. The manner of labor and the productive relationship demand upon the tools with which people work, “Thus the Marxian theory disclosed the propelling force and the mechan-' ism of social development. In doing this it has ‘proved that history is not something irregular and that the vari- ous social systems are not the result of chance or haphazard events, but that there is a regular devtopment in a definite direction. . . that social development does not cease with our system, because technique continually. develops.” i Fagen is not an abstract theory but a sharp weapon used by the proletarians in their struggle against the capitalist class, And we have al- ready séen how the bourgeoisie made Darwinism a weapon in their struggle to pervert Darwinism ex a toot against the workers, In commenting on the Scopes trial, many of the capitalist professors are belittling the theory of evolution, de- claring it “obsolete,” and unimport- ant, serving the master class by at- tempting to show that additions to the evolution “theory, which strength- ened the theory 9 of descent, really de- stroyed i, 3 ™ cen tee Those professors who use Darwin- ism as a defense of the bouregols sys- tem, Pannekoek tells us, make the er- ror of comparing the social organism with the animal body. “The survival of the fittest” cannot be used as a support of capitalist competition, for, “while it is positively true that in the struggle for existence those animals that are strong, healthy and well sur- vive, yet this does not happen under capitalist competition. Success does not depend upon personal ability, but upon the possession ‘of capital. The competition existing in the capitalist system is something different in requisites and results from the ani- mal struggle for existence.” The workers do not compete with capitalism, Pannekoek points out, but only sell their labor power to them. The poor do not succumb because they are unfit, but because capitalism creates miserable conditions, wrings their very blood out of them, and de- stroys the bodies and minds of the ealthiest and strongest of the work- ers: “It is the possession of money that determines who shall survive and who shall perish. HEREFORE, while Darwinism sup- ports and supplements Marxism, the two theories distinct, one ap- plying to the animal world and one to human society. The bourgeois scien- tists, in attempting to apply the the- ory of Marx, belonging to human so- ciety, demonstrate their inability to reason, Darwinism shows the devel- opment of the animal world up to the entry of man, and the Marxian theory applies after the animal: besa into man, _ Darwinism and Marxism are. not directly connected, because all man is an animal, he is also a social animal, who has developed tools, thot and language, three pecularities be- longing to man alone, The animal organs are used just as the humans use tools. But tools can be changed and transformed, allowing the development of production where- as the animal is mainly dependent up- on but one organ. The hare can only run fast, the lion can spring ahd bite, and if conditions change, the animal is lost. But man can shange his tools while the animal cannot change his organs. The struggle in the animal world is a struggle of these organs, the strug- gle in human society is a struggle of tools. Darwinism shows that animal organs continually develop. Marxism shows that tools and the means of production continiially develop. HE jury of backwoods Tennesse- ans may find Scopes guilty,, but before the capitalist world Bryan has been beaten. Such a trial would be impossible in the north, where capi- talism is developed. The further development of the min- ing and steel and other other indus- tries, which have already made in- roads into the plantations of Tennes- see will abolish the remnants of feud- alism dnd “modernist” preachers will replace the evangelists and Bryans who cling to a literal interpreation of the bible. Unless before that time the indus- trial workers overthrow the capitalist system, and throw out the prostitute professors and preachers who are per- verting Darwinism and attem: to use the theory of evolution in addition to the bible, as a means of further ex- vibra: and dderading ee mr me ad
