While the right wing and the police have been hoping that the wholesale arrests and mass sent ing of the militant workers wou break the fighting spirit of the fur rkers, it is believed that when they see the thousands of working class fighters pour into the market after the Fourth of July holidays, they will realize that all of their terrorism has been in vain.

The bosses, like the militarists upon whom they depend for final aggression, make attacks at certain points and at certain times, upon various sections of the labor movement. - Tf these attacks are repelled by the ‘united action of the labor movement the bosses retreat. If the attacks are suc- cessful the battle-line is broadened until it stretches along the whole capital-labor front. It is one of these periods that the labor movement enters now. The defense of the right to strike and picket, the de- fense of the workers in jail, united resistance to the whole which unites right wing labor officialdom, the bosses, the police and the courts, are the immediate tasks of all honest workers and supporters of the labor movement Agree or disagree with the political beliefs of the lead ership of the Furriers’ Union, say that there is no place for Communist theory in America, but the labor movement cannot deny the fact that the furriers are striking for better wages and working conditions for union shops and for the right to picket. These principles: every member of the labor movement is in duty bound to defend against all enemies and at all costs. Here then are the issues in the furriers’ strike and they constitute a challenge which the labor movement cannot fail to answer in a decisive manner without its being inter- preted as surrender by the forces of capitalist reaction which are mobilizing for a new drive on labor.

New York City JULY 14th “A farm in Iowa.” | This is what Morris Sigman, | president of the reactionary In-| ternational, is said to have owned during the past few years. The reason why he chose to buy the farm in the Far West rather than in New York state, | Pennsylvania or Connecticut has | just become clear. On Sigman’s “farm” grow merry-go-rounds, shoot - the -| shoots, ferris wheels, shooting | galleries, fat ladies, het dog stands, South Sea dancing girls, and other Coney Island attrac- tions to refresh him when he sags under the strain of trying to maintain his reactionary leadership over the workers who have repudiated him. The correspondent who spot- ted these two advertisements from the Storm Lake (la,) “Pilot-Tribune” relates that Sig- man is a big figure among the business leaders of the town. The labor “leader” paid $14,000 for the land upon which his amuse- ment park is situated, and the total value of the business is now estimated to be over $75,000. The Black Hundred’s last hopes of breaking the furriers’ strike are ra- pidly disappearing. Wholesale ar- rests of pickets, murderous gangster attacks on leaders, police interven- tion, Woll’s appeals, all have failed. These persecutions have only served to make the strikers more determined to carry their fight to a successful finish, The ranks of the arrested strikers are daily replaced by thou- sands and the Sigman-McGrady clique and the bosses are now convinced that the strikers cannot be intimidated by a reign of terror. The only hope left them is that the! furriers will be compelled to abandon the fight due to lack of funds. The! | fines imposed daily upon hundreds of arrested workers show that the law} courts aim at exhausting the treasury of the Strike Committee.

The order against the unions was| issued June 16. The open shop bosses and the pickets was interfering with their business. Thus picketing and strikes must be outlawed by the court. The court, however, issued a warn- ing to the union that it must carry on a peaceful picketing and a peace- ful strike. If not, it will continue the injunction against the strikers.

The liberal counter-revolutionaries are incapable of even a half solution of the agrarian and peasant ques- tions and this dooms them to defeat. The fiercer the bourgeoisie will war against the popular masses, the more rapidly will this bourgeoisie throw itself into the hands of the imperial- ists, the clearer will it be that con- sistent national liberative struggle can proceed in China only against the bourgeoisie.
