THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YURK, SATUKVAY, SHEL KMBEK 1, 1928 Workers Intern / | HAndOuTS UNIONS URGED TO When Cal Coolidge, the presiden- tial zero, was told that the power trust was getting its propaganda into the school books and favorable editorials in the papers by corrupt means he said he saw no reason for the federal government to interfere. Correct! If the power trust was un- able to dope the school books or bribe the papers it would be time enough for Coolidge to enter the scene and help them get results. Oe Getting The * m Young Paul A. Siple, Boy Scout of Erie, | Pa., was selected by Byrd to add) another uniform to his antarctic | expedition. The capitalists use the | boy scout organization to train the | the young in military discipline so they'll be all ready for the next | imperialistic blood bath which al-| ready reddens the horizon. Byrd’s| act will give the foul game a boost. | Siple’s daily kind deed while at-the South pole will be sweeping the) snow off the front’ porch and melt-| ing up @ balloon of rum for Byrd, | 2,000 of which will be taken along. This will prevent the pleasure lov- | ing commander feeling at all ill at| ease while his employes are out selecting the proper icebergs to be) brought home as scientific speci- | mens. : ee It doesn’t make much difference to a worker whether the bandit who robs him is left-handed or right- handed. It won't make the slightest difference whether Al or Herb is elected. A republican and a demo- crat are as similar as two police dogs both of whom jump when their master whistles. This seems to be understood by James G. Harvey who has just been elected mayor of Ha- zelton, Pa., on both the republican and democratic tickets. + * * Eye On Russia Seca The only advantage a_ social democratic government has is that it proves to the workers that it has no advantage. The. German social democratic government of Chaneel- lor Mueller is going ahead with the cruiser building program the same as many other capitalist govern- ment. This has brought a storm of protest from the workers and has elated President Hindenberg above, who sees a chance for political ammunition. Hindenberg is a crafty reactionary whose policy has always been to get everything pos- sible from the U. S. S. R. and at the same time prepare for War so as to be able to sell his strategic position at a high figure when the Imperialist wolves begin the attack against the workers republic. Gems of Learning Glenn Frank, president of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin: “Chain stores cannot be put out of business by being dammed and criticized as Wall Street octopuses, nor can they be legislated out of business. Specialization, mass pro- duction, a larger turnover with small profits are the only effective counter weapons.” In other words all. the worker needs to compete with the chain stores is a few million dollars. Professor E. M. Borchard of Yale, speaking of the Kellogg “peace” * + 5 “Considering these reservations, it would be difficult to conceive of any war that nations have fought within the last century, or are likely to fight in the future, that cannot be accommodated under these excep- tions. Far from constituting an out- lawry of war, they constitute the most solemn sanction of specific wars that has ever been given to the world.” When a professor of Yale can see through the Kellogg peace pact it ought to be clear to everyone, / MOR GIVE FUNDS FOR FOOD, CLOTHING Meet At Irving Plaza Sept. 15 A call to a conference of trade union and other labor organizations here to raise relief for the 30,000 striking textile workers of New) Bedford and Fall River, was issued yesterday by the New York Local of the Workers International Relief. The conference is to be held at Irv-| ing Plaza Hall, 15th St. and Irving) Place, Saturday, September 15, at 1 p.m. The official call, issued by the W. Is R. section over the signature of its secretary, Harriet Silverman, gives a short but vivid picture of the | conditions under which strikers are compelled to live, while they are about to enter the 21st week of their strike against wage cuts. The call then declares: | “Organized labor must respond to the New Bedford and Fall River strike with 100 per cent support. The strike has been on for five months. The need is great. Imme- diate and continuous relief must be sent into New Bedford and Fall River. The Workers’ International Relief has responded to the strike call from the very beginning of the struggle. “Albert Weisbord, National Sec- retary of the Textile Mill Commit- tees, F. S. Biedenkapp, National Secretary of Workers International Relief, and others who have been jailed for their strike activity will speak. “Please appoint two delegates to represent your organization at the Conference on September 15th, and send us their names and addresses immediately, Act at once!” U.S. S.R, SCORES KELLOGG PACT To Sign with Sharp | Criticism Continued from Page One tions refer to parts of the Brit-| ‘ish Empire they are “super- |fluous” and if it means other | | regions, the participants in the| treaty are entitled to know |“where the freedom of action of the British government) begins and where it ends.” | In conclusion, the note said) ment cannot but consider it an| attempt to use the pact itself as an instrument of imper-) ist policy.” | The Soviet Acceptance was | Herbette today in the lengthy and critical note accompanying | it. In the acceptance, the Soviet Government details its vigor- \treaty and the reservations, at- {tempting to show how it is not! leapable of preventing wars. |The attack centers on British} | reservations which are branded | |as “an attempt to use the Pact| las an instrument of imperial- | ‘is policy.” | | “Nevertheless,” the note) concludes,” inasmuch as the, treaty objectively imposes cer-| tain obligations on the powers through public opinion and gives the Soviet Government a@ new chance to put before all |participants in the pact the! |question of the disarmament) |solution, which is the only| | guarantee of preventing war, | |the Soviet Government ex-| 'presses its consent to sign mis! | Pact.” CASES AGAINST KANSASWORKERS Continued from Page One | to attack the meeting at which the | arrested workers spoke.

About 60 delegates were present, representing labor organizations in Luzerne and Lackawanna counties, when Emil Gardos, Subdistrict Or- zanizer, opened the conference. Pointing to the presence of the po- lice force, he said: “This confer- ence is stopped in spite of the fact that we are in election times, when according to the so-called democ- racy, every party has the right to express itself before the people. It coal operators, because they will not allow a working class party to step forward, to expose the corruption ef this system and to mobilize the workers to fight against it. ster At this point Chief Taylor stopped the speaker and using the half a dozen plainclothes men, chased out all the delegates from the hall, which is used by the Party as its office and meeting-place. Boss Police. This action of Chief of Police Tay- lor is further proof that the govern-| ment and the republican and demo-| cratic parties are in the control of the coal operators who resort to all means to destroy the workers’ or-| ganizations, who are putting up a fight for the interest of the ex- ploited masses.
