The trial of the 13 Zeigler miners now’ proceeding in Benton, Illinois; on the fake charge of conspiring to murder is climaxed by, the ludicrous accusation against Frank Corbishley that he, a lead- ing’ progressive, murdered--one of his principal supporters, Mike Sarovich, when it is known to everyone in. the’ Vicinity that Alex Hargis, a member of the ku klux klan, was the-perpetrator of the murder. Furthermore the preliminary coroner's jury’sitting on the case, held Hargis for the crime. “Subsequent political pressure by the klan and the most flagrant use of the frame-up-was brought into action to shift the blame to Corbishley. The official machine of the U. M. W. of A.-in that section is so completely corrupted and so determined to impose its rule upon the membership of the union that nothing but bitter opposition can be expected from them. The only defense the victims of the frame-up have is what they obtain from the rank and file of labor, and all militant trade unionists should support the appeals of the Inter- national Labor Defensé and help finance the fight for liberty now being waged against this triple alliance of reaction. in southern Tilinois, that will’ even stoop’ to: murder in order to achieve its nefarious purpose. The Bootleggers, of Course! The same question that ardse in the antf-Saloon league case in New York that sent the head of that organization, William H. An- derson, to the ‘penitentiary for plain and fancy financial juggling, is up in a similar case in Kansas: ‘ Who finances the anti-saloon league? One Mr. Fred L. Crabbe, superintendent ‘of; the Kansas anti- saloon league, collected funds for “law enfor¢ement” that he was supposed to turn over “to the league, but kept for himself. This reopens the question of who finances the league’and the reptile press seems puzzled regarding the income of that outfit. In determining the source of income of ‘any organization it is necessary to discern what group’the organization benefits. Certainly Mail.)\—In proceeding ‘to the discus- sion of the peasant problem at the Fourteenth Congress of the Russian Communist Party, Secretary Stalin pointed out by numerous, quotations from the speeches of Gregory Zino- viev, who presénted the Leningrad viewpoint, that Zinoviey, quite a short time ago had still the standpoint of the neutralization of the middle peas- antry and only after the internal party struggle, that is a short time before the party congress, when the under- estimation of the middle peasantry was sharply condemned in the whole party, took up the standpoint of the necessity of a firm alliance with the middle peasantry. 3 At the beginning of the year, Zin- ovievy wrote in the Pravda that all the parties of the Comintern had the general task of winning the agricul- tural proletariat, the half-proletariat and the small peasantry as allies for the proletariat and of neutralizing the middle peasantry. (Interruption from the Leningrad delegation: Russia“is not meant.) (Stalin: Is our party, then not a section of the Comintern? Applause.) Already at the eighth party con- gress of the Russian Communist Party Lenin fought energitically against the underestimation of the middle peasantry and pointed out that its winning was necessary and not its neutralization, Stalin quoted nu- merous similar declarations of Zino- viev in which the middle peasantry was either completely inored or rep- resented as an object for neutraliza- tion. ITH regard to the declarations of Zinoviev in his “Philosophy of the Epoch” upon the dominance of the idea of equality in the masses of the people. Stalin pointed out’ that one could not possibly preach the idea of equality without exactly stating whether it was a question of equality between the workers and peasants, between the qualified and unqualified workers or of the final abolition of class sdciety. One may not play. with the slogan of equality in-a responsible article in the ceztral organ of the party, just as one may not play with the word “Leninism” without recogii%ing the the league and. its Volstead act does not enforce\prohibition any more than the league of nations enforces world peace. Those who benefit by the Volstead act are the rum- runners, the bootleggers and ‘the dispensers of poison hootch. As long as the idiotic provisions of the Volstead act remain in force the nation will be a bootleggers’ paradise. The anti-saloon league is the organized | force that makes it possible for bootlegging to: thrive. Hence it is plain to anyone, with the slightest understanding of the methods employed-in American polities and who understands the greed for pelf of preachers and other uplifters, that the prin- cipal support of this-vile crew: comes from thoge: whom it benefits— the bootleggers. Miners Speak for Themselves As the strike in the anthracite drags on from month to month the miners devote considerable time to taking invoice of the calibre of their leaders. in constantly calling out the maintenance men, was sternly rebuked general, by ‘calling’ out the maintenance men, was sternly rebuked a few weeks ago by ‘the general grievance committee meeting in Wilkes@arre. This growing militancy on the part of the rank and file was again demonstrated Tuesday when, at a special meeting of the gen- eral grievance committee, Lewis’ proposals for a-5-year agreement and “voluntary arbitration” were repudiated. Instead of the Lewis-Cappellini policy of betrayal of the miners into the hands of the employers the representatives of the rank and file ‘insist upon pulling out the maintenance men and forcing the coal barons into submission. “Instead of wrecking the union thru placing the destinies of the men*in the hands of Hoover; Hughes and Pinchot, the general grievance: boasd: stands*on. the original demands and calls ‘the miners to rally to. the “or and smash the power. of the anthracite ‘barons.

E. SNYDER. HE American farmer is as well ofi as he-ever was. He was never well off?” There’ is ‘a’ good deal in the above statement. The American farmer used to think. that he was “rich” because he owned, land and tools regardless of income from products from the land produced by his or hired labor power. rs There is no capitalist investment in the world that is so bankrupt, all the time, as the farm investment. If in- The criminal actions of President John L. Lewis|°st®4 capital brings no real returns, not even enough to pay for the labor power expended, it is declared a fail- ure and enters into bankruptcy pro- vedings. The farmer however hangs on, goes behind each year and finally is dispossessed by death or the money loaner. These things were true long years ago. It is just in recent years that the farmers began to know that he should figure in investment, that is what his land, machinery, live stock, seed, fer- ilizer, transportation to the local and outside market, labor power, etc. cost him before counting up his “income” om Which to pay taxes. It was when the rural delivery came wd, brought him daily crop and price eports that he began to observe the ifferences. in the local market and he terminal market price.

S. S. R., Dec. 23.—(By} Leningrad after a discussion that he was in favor of the slogan for a firm alliance with the middle peasantry. Unfortunately there is no guarantee that Zinoviey will not soon abandon this slogan, for, as the facts prove, Zinoviey never particularly..shone by the necessary firmness in the peasant question. (Applause,) HEN one says that one must fight equally strongly against both de- viations, that is to say, against the underestimation and the overestima- tion of the Kulak danger, one forgets that up to the moment the first tend- ency has only been expressed by an irresponsible menrber of the party in the theoretical’ ‘brgan “Bolshevik” whilst the second tendency is em- bodied by a-Zin viev and a Kamene¥ who have at thelr disposal their own press organ in Leningrad and an or- ganizational rv, Bogushevsky, however, is detinikely finished. Stalin called to mind the growth of the differences of opinion which first of all showed themselves towards the end of 1924 wher the Leningrad group demanded the expulsion of Trotsky from the party.’ The majority of the central committeé declared that it was not in agreement with this and it limited. itself to “the removal of Trot- sky from his post as the commissar for war, for it was of the opinion that this proposal and @lso the ‘proposal of Zinoviev and Kameney to expel Trot- sky from the polit bureau held great dangers for the’ party, for disposals are catching and they might go too far, (Applause). Differences of opinion also cropped up when the Leningrad organization of the Young Communist League took upon itself the functions of a second central committee of the Young Com- munist League and wished to trans- form the Leningrad district con- ference of the.. Young® Communist League into a sort of All-Russian Com- munist League. conference. and the central committee was compelled to proceed against, this attempt to insti- tute a system.of, double centralism. Further, the central committee was compelled to rejegt the prosal of Zin- oviev to issue a,second theoretical or- gan to appear in,Leningrad and the editorial staff 9f,which was to be composed -exclugively of members of the opposition. _The central commit. it placed.the:interests of the party. higher than considerations of a form- al party democracy and forbade the appearance of a fractional 6rgan, just as it would have to prohibit. this in the future also, (Applause.) Let the mombers of the opposition who still make play with the slogan “Enrich Yourselves” referring to the peasantry which has been rojected a thousand times by Bucharin himself and by the central committee, pro- duce even one article from the central organ or even one declaration of the central committee in which this’ slo- gan has received some new expres- sion. On the contrary, thd central committee paid the greatest possible attention to the ideological purity of all articles and speeches in this ‘con- nection so that the development of the productive forces of the village might not be interpréted as a slogan of the party for private capitalist) ac- cumulation. The mistake of Buchar- in which he withdrew in time and which he regrets, is in comparison with the mistakes of certain comrades who in October, 1917, twice broke the decisions made under Lenin's leader- ship, upon the October action, absurd- ly insignificant. TALIN pointed out that not only has the opposition no united plat- form, but it upholds the most contra- dictory and mutually exclusive stand points and is only unifed upon one point, namely a reform of the sec- retariat.of the central committee. De- spite all thé absurdity of such a pro- gram, this is an undeniable fact. Af- ter the twelfth party congress in 1923 @ group of comrades elaborated a plat- form to abolish the polit bureau and to transform the secretariat into a po- litical and organizational leading or- gan consisting of Zinoviev, Trotsky and Stalin. This platform meant that the party should be led without Ry- kov, Kalinin, Tomsky, Molotov and Bucharin, Nothing came of this program at the time not only because of jts lack of principle but/also on account of the impossibility of leading the party without these comrades. Stalin de- clared that he had answered the ques- tion at the time with ‘a’ decisive no and had further de¢elared’ that if the comrades wanted, hei was prepared to give up his place without! noise, with- out either open or coneéaled discus- sion, without setting’up any demands or asking for guarantees’ or rights for “Closing Speech to Party Congress ment) exactly the opposite demand, not ‘the ‘politicalizing of the secretar- lat, but its. technicalization, not the abolition, but the absolution of the po- lit buréau is proposed. Perhaps such a reform would suit Kamenev, hyt certainly not the party. (Applause) A technical secretariat would hard- ly be able to prepare all the ques- tions! for the polit. bureau and the organizational bureau in the manner in which this has been previously done... (Interruption, correct.) The demand for the absolutism of the po- litical bureau is simply absurd, for the secretariat is subordinate to the polit bureau and the latter to the plenary session ofthe central com- mittee. .The. opposition habitually talks of the difficulties of the pres- ent moment, but it forgets the most dangerous difficulty of all; the dan- ser. of disorganizing the party. .(Ap- plause,) The majority. ‘of the central com- mittee Hdd this danger In mind when it. propo: compromises for a pos- sible agreement to the opposition two days before the party congress.

This is its “love of peace.” The majority of the central commit- tee remains in all essentials upon.‘the standpoint of this letter.
