‘ FILIPINOS ASK NOTHING LESS THAN FREEDOM Demand No Compro- mise from U. S. (Special to The Dally Worker) MANILA, Oct. 5—Just as Colonel arm! A. Thompson, personal repre- sentative of President Coolidge “in- vestigating” the Philippine Islands and the Filipino demand for Independ- noe as @bout to depart from the Islands to make ‘his report to Coolidge, Manuel Quezon, leader of the Independence forces; has made an’ announcement Bhat the Filipinos want full and im- mediate freedom or nothing. Independence or Nothing. Quezon’s speech will be published in the Philippine Herald, and the dec- laration of the supreme national coun- cil, demanding immediate, absolute independence, will be passed thru a Joint session of both houses of legis- lature and presented to Colonel Thompson as @ memorial embodying Filipino demands. Hitherto, Thompson has had to con- sider compromise measures, such as pleas for a native governor, to take the place of General Wood, of elec- tion of legislators now, appointed by General Wood and abolition of his veto power. % Imperialist Joker. Thompson is definitely opposed to any independence—at least now. He is considering propdsing. a policy which means postponing it indefi- nitely.- It is explained in the follow- ing typically imperialist manner, ap- pearing to grant something while granting nothing at all: * “It is suggested thatcongress a- mend the Jones act so that the posses- sion of the islands shall be handed over in a given period, such as forty years, but that: ten years before the expiration of that period, definite ac- jtion shall be taken to determine ~whethér freedom is to be granted at ‘the end of the time fixed.” na Brazil Revolt.

CROWNS, GRAVITATE:FOWARDS AMERICAN DOLLARS ( - Boris A few of the more or less crowned heads of Europe who contemplate trips to America. The extension of the power American dollar Imperialism and the rise of the revolutionary movements have caused moribund European royalty to curry favorin the land of the dollar sign. New York and Washington are becoming like Versailles at the time when Napoleon was the power in the world—his court was the center of all courts. But now that courts are getting a little out of fashion with the advance of hard-fisted and materiallstic capltailsm, the mansions of America’s plunderbund will serve to entertain the royal guests—and that with a oer tain amount of paternalism. For what is the m ly income of, say a Spanish princess, compared with the millions at the disposal of any American steel magna’ daughter? 4 / Tortures of Political Prisoners in Poland Once More Exposed 'HE bestial treatment of the political prisoners in Poland is known to the world. This practice of the “democratic government” became so severe that even capitalist institutions have been aroused by it. The International Committee of Red Cross under the pressure of public opinion sent a delegation to Poland for investigating the situation in prisons. The chairman of the com: mittee was well known Robert Brunel. When the delegation came to Poland the authorities did all they could to hide the truth. No wonder that the delegation gave out a very mild report altho admitting that the prisoners are mistreated and beaten. Ag answer to this, one of the prisoners is writing a letter to Mr. Brunel erreg 4 out that he is ready to submit more facts pigs have -been hidden.from the delegation. As the letter is of great interest we publish-it in full: , OPEN LETTER TO MR, ROBERT DELEGATE OF THE INVESTIGATE as a result of which the general state of my health is growing steadily worse, a HE) above facts are so shameful R.

Thruont Germany the process of trustification has been going on at a rapid rate. The dye trust has $1,100,- 000,000 capital and 1s Germany's lead- ing trust.
