COMMUNIST MEMBER OF NORTH DAKOTA LEGISLATURE RAPS KELLOGG ON SAKLATVALA BAN (Special to The Dally Worker) WILLISTON, N. D., Sept. 28.—In a statement by A. C. Mliler, Communist member of the North Dakota state legislature, the attempt by Secretary of State Kellogg to bar Shapuri Saklatvala from the interpatliamentary union congress to be held at Wash- ington, D.C., is attacked as an attempt of the. capitalist inter- national dictatorship to silence the voice of the British Com- munist, “The barring of the British Communist delegate Shapurji Saklatvala from attending the interparliamentary union con- press to be held in the United States, demonstrates the solidarity of the capitalist class,’ declared A. C. Miller. “A wide-awake working class with unemployment thruout England caused the British imperialists to hesitate and forced Seon rena nt the.

BILL HOHENZOLLERN IN PLAN TO RESTORE BOTH HIMSELF AND CZARISM BERLIN, Sept. 28. — Wilhelm, former German emperor, though an exile at Doorn, still hopes for re- storation, not only to his own em- pire but also of the Russian empire. Proof of this is given in a letter written by the ex-kaiser on August 1, 1924, and published in the forth- coming biography of Emil Ludwig. The ex-kalser’s letter was addres- sed to the former Russian War Minister Sukolinoff. ne “The terrible consequences of the attack upon Germany,” wrote Wil- helm, “show that the future wel- fare of both nations lies in loyal co- operation after restoration.” [. W. W. SEAMEN KEEP.

W. intend to do all In their power to aid the striking British and Austratian seamen, although they themectves have been compelled to go back to the job by superior forces, is shown in the union's bulletin issued Friday. It says in part: “The ‘outlaw’ strike of the British seamen is still in effect according to the latest information, The British seamen will win their strike. In fact they have already won it. It will be only a matter of a few days until the British ship owners will grant their demands. “In the meantime, the M. T. W. will do all in its power to pull the crews off British ships ae they a&r- rive and will continue in every way to ald our British fellow workers in Chicago Tribune. It is also strongly hinted that the seeming alacrity on the part of France to come to terms on the debt question may be a ruse to fool the “Simple Simons” of Wall Street. Caillaux may want to have the debt question settled and a fat floan in his jeans before the scheduled meeting of the western powers takes place, Thus fortified the French could ditch the security pact, pick up the threads of their relations with Po- land and perhaps renew the negotia- tions with Soviett Russia. ae he Aes is Hable. to happen.

Si in Burope. ‘Th Uilted tates” is hot affiliated with the league of nations, yet Washington speaks louder and more authoritatively in Europe than does Geneva.’ The American capital- ists have the dough and money talks. The American bankers, who, are run- ning this country, do not like to see England, France and Germany at each cthers’ throats. When they are fighting, remittances to Wall Street don't flow, whatever movement of cash takes, place goes in the wrong direction. eee UDGE GARY delivered a message to a group of budding American millionaires a few weeks ago in the city of New York. The judge’s audi- ence was composed of students of the school of commerce. After listen- ing to the steel magnate, they could vision a future with palatial yachts, mansions, and all the luxuries that wwealth brings. The only thing they had to do to win tame and fortune was to follow” the judge’s advice. Above all they must be pure, like the judge. The most honest and truthful men he ever met were J. P. Morgan and Marshall Field. se \ O doubt the assembled potential millionaries took the Gary hokum seriously. This is the type that schools and colleges are peopled with. The ideal of success held before their eyes is the attainment of wealth, and all other considerations must be sub- sidiary. William J. Bryan once said that no man could accumulate a mil- Jon dollars honestly. As a matter of fact any man who receives more than the value of what he produces is on the wrong side of honesty, or would be, in a state of society where honesty had /a chance.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DEPORTS PARTICIPANTS * IN GHINESE TONG WAR (Special to The Daily Worker) NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—Forty of the 256 Chinese rounded up by the federal officials In raids In China- town are to be deported this week. The remaining 216 will be deported to China as soon as arrangements can be made with steamship oom- paniés to bring them to China.

Instead of boycotting thé fascisti they intend, to enter the chamber of depu- ties and carry on the fight there. The Maximalists, who control 45 seats have abandoned. the boycott. The Aventiners are also considering the calling off of the boycott. Some insist upon sending in their resigna- tions from the. chamber as a protest against the ruthless methods used by the fascisti to crush their opposition. The killing of Matteotti is still linger- ing in the minds of many of the de- puties. A formal decision will be reached as to Aventine conduct at the meeting of the executive council next month, Former Premier Orlando is being asked to withdraw his resignation and be leader of the Aventine opposition to the fascist government in the cham- ber of deputies.

T. W. decided to transfer the strike back to the job. The seamen who went on strike can be proud of their setion. We are going back to the ships in- tent upon intensifying our campaign for a far greater strike in the future. It was well understood when we left our jobs th: aneant to show the ship owners that they cannot get away with their predatory rule any longer. We still mean it. We will continue our fight while on the job and pre- pare to walk out again when the sun ‘is warmer-and*the salpping” is“ better, Owners Surprisea and Hurt. “The shipowners certainly felt the effect of this strike coming as it did when the bosses had visions of great profits carrying cargo that ordinarily is carried. in» British and Australian ships. It was a complete surprise te them and an invaluable aid to our fellow workers striking in England, Australia, South Africa, Denmark and China. These seamen will not forget our display of solidarity, nor will they fail to remember the traitorous action of certain ‘International’ unions, whose officials did all in their power to break the strtke. “Let us go back to the jobs, then, to organize and prepare for a real battle with the shipping octopus to change the present state of affairs and win good conditions, better pay and better food. Let us take delegate’s credentials back to the jobs and or- ganize the marine industry. We count on all marine workers to co-operate with the ship's delegates to better conditions, perfect organization and do jaway with the blacklist. Prepare for Next Strike, “It“is of no use to stay in the fo'c’sle and grumble behind the boss’ back, Face him with concerted ac- tion and solidarity. ‘ Stick together, and if some the so-called ‘agitators’ have to quit, let those who take their places take up the fight. Thus we will be able to make these ships fit for men to live and work on. No one but ourselves can do this. No one is going to fight our battles for us. Whatever we get will come only thru our own efforts. To the ships! Prepare and or- ganize for the next strike!’ The best way to support the DAILY WORKER is to subscribe —and get others to subscribe.
