Editors Business Manager | Ee 290 : The Illinois Scandal The most disgraceful episode in the history of the Illinois labor | movement is the election of Frank L. Smith, candidate of Samuel Tnsull, open shop millionaire utility magnate, with the active assist- ance of the leaders of the Illinois Federation of Labor and the some- what passive support of the officials of the Chicago Federation of | Labor. Not that Frank L. Smith would be any more undesirable in practice to labor than George E. Brennan, also an Insull beneficiary, or Hugh Magill, fake reformer and candidate of Julius Rosenwald, fake philanthropist and exploiter of labor. But the candidacy of Frank L. Smith became particularly odious because of the fact that he was chairman of the Illinois Commerce Commission’ which had the power of fixing rates in the public utilities that were controlled by Insull. The assumption was that Smith received $200,000 from Insull because of favorable action taken when the matter of fixing rates for Insull’s properties came before his commission. We do not take much stock in the indignation manifested by capitalist opponents of Smith because of this unethical eonduct on bis part. His opponents are just as corrupt and unscrupulous as he is. But one would expect that the trade union movement, which should aim to send a clean breeze thru the polluted political at- mosphere would at least have the decency not to drag the name of labor in the mud by supporting a man whose name had become synonymous with corruption. Nor was there any excuse for the labor leaders to support Smith on the ground that there was no alternative candidate, since Brennan was the favorite of big business, excepting that section that favored Magill because of conscientious scruples against good liquor. There was the candidate of the Workers (Communist) Party, J. jahl, and for those whose class consciousness is still in clothes, but who like to be “decent,” there was Parley Parker Christianson, running on no recognizable platform, it is true, but surgly a man a worker could vote for without having to go on a debauch afterwards to forget his shame. Of course, the labor leaders will say that it is no use voting for a candidate who stands no chance of getting elected: And we say that it is still more futile to vote for a candidate who can, unless he is a candidate who stands for working class interests on a work- ing class ticket. In electing a capitalist candidate the workers al- ways lose. But tho defeated when fighting for: the election of a representative of labor the workers are always victorious. Every word spoken that will raise the morale of the workers, every move that britigs more class cqnsciousness into their heads and solidarity into their ranks is a gain. : f What have the workers of Tilinois gained by electing Frank | L. Smith? What will Smith's presence in the senate accomplish for them even should he be seated? The answer is an emphatic “nothing !” ; The present elections, not only in Illinois but thruout. the nation, show that the class consciousness of’ the workers is at a yery low level. They do not yet'seem to realize that they should unite on the political field as they do, or should, on the industrial field. They cannot yet see the connection between the employer they strike against in the shop and the employer who is a'cog in the capitalist party they vote for. But they will be forced to see the connection. The policemen’s club, the capitalist judge’s in- junction and the capitalist jail will open their eyes. Tue Dairy Worker, official organ of the Workers (Commu-| nist) Party is in existence solely to point out to the workers the road they must follow in order to free themselves from the misery of capitalism. The first step they must take on the political field | is to organize a labor party and wage unceasing war against the two old parties of capitalism and get rid of the crooked labor lead- ers who sell them to both. The Knight: of Reaction An organization known as the Knights of Columbus is raising @ million dollar fund to make war on the Mexican republic. This | aggregation of inverted kluxers is deluging the country with liter- ature calculated to arouse the lowest human passions .against the | Mexican people who are struggling to emancipate themselves from | the heritage of ignorance and superstition which was all that was left to them by the corrupt, immoral and thieving papel agents that “had the country in their grasp before the revolution wrenched them loose from their graft. j One of the leaflets put out by the “Knights” is headed : “$1,000,- 900 for Civilization.” How many thumb screws, racks and iron virgins one million dollars would buy? A goodly supply. How those heavy jowled human buzzards would like to have the old inquisi- tion’days back again so that they could strangle all those who “deubted the papal mummeries! Those assassins of liberty prate about “right and freedom” tho the smell of the burning flesh of thinkers, who thought differently from some bawdy pope, can be smelled across the eenturies. © They are waging war on Mexico as they”have waged it on Soviet Russia, but real civilization is on the march and the incantan- tions of the ex-bartenders and captalist flunkeys that comprises the membership of the Knights of Columbus will be as ineffective today as the curses of the papacy were against woman suffrage. Prole- tarian civilization will make the organ grinder on the Tiber either work or starve. The catholic church, which is one of the main bul- warks of capitalism as it was of feudalism, will go down with the ~social revolution, because there will no longer be @ ruling class based on the private ownership of property that would find it to its advantage to subsidize a religious opium joint for poisoning the minds of its slaves, The Knights of Columbus are raising one million dollars to wage war on the Mexican people. This scurvy gang did not raise a nickel to defend the Irish people against the terrorism of England On the contrary, they supported the British terror, What have the Irish workers in America, the backbone of the Knights of Columbus, to say to this? Are they so steeped in superstition and so cowardly that they will permit themselves to be Wall Street, in alli. ance with the pope in a war on the Mex lic?

We must keep the weapon of revo lutionary education in, the hands of the workers, by saving it from the deadly grasp.of capitalist debtors. Comrades, we are not compromising There is no doubt in the mind of jevery reader and sympathizer of the jimportance of The DAILY WORKER | as the only revolutionary expression jof the workers of America in English. | Neither is there any doubt in the} jminds of our comrades of the criti-| |cal position in which The DAILY | | WORKER finds itself at present.

Mrs. Hanna, 29-year-old widow of Major Mark Hanna, killed oyerseas on Armistice Day, is accused by the gov- ernment of not having been actually married to Hanna. She already has received $2,000 of the $10,000 policy. After the first payment had been made Mrs, Hanna was found in com- pany with Henry Wagner, said to be a notorious criminal. Mrs. Hanna entered suit charging the authorities had no right to deny her the insurance money, regardless of her personal morals, New Orleans Boiler Makers Win Increase NEW ORLEANS, Noy. 3.—New.

Ruth Gillette Hardy, economics de- partment head at Girls’ Commercial High, Brooklyn, is head of the eli- gibles for a principalship. Jessie Wallace Hughan has been on the eli- gible list for first assistant in Eng- lish for six years and has served as acting head of the department at Textile High for three years. Abra- ham Lefkowitz, history teacher at Commerce High, is likewise eligible for advancement which has not been given him. The board of examiners say frankly Hughan’s “radical ten- dencies” prevent her permanent pro- motion. She is a Social®st. Hardy's saw his own-political death sentence. Butler was Coolidge’s “angel”, the man who pushed him to thefront, fhe man who put over his presidenfial cam- paign. Coolidge refused risk his own fortune by endors' the re publican senatorial candidates but he went to the bat for Butler. Whatever chances Butler had before Coolidge wrote the letter praising fim he had none as soon as the voters of Mass- achusetts got thinking over the mat- ter. The most important factor in Butler's defeat is the widespread unemploy- ment in the textile industry and the ) wage cutting policy that has prevailed there for years back and in which Butler played a prominent part. The Volstead law also played an important part, thousands of wet republicans de- serting the dry elephant for the wet donkey. The Republican Party in the Bay State was tied up with the anti- saloon league, which did not prove an asset to Butler.
