cae Page Five THE DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, MONDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1928 Anti-Horthy League Calls o SHOWS BETHLEN, HORTHY BEHIND ‘NEW BUTCHERIES ‘Butchery of Jews Goes | on Unchecked | | The Anti-Horthy League has is- lsued a statement signed by Emery Balint, secretary, pointing out that ithe pogroms taking place in Hun- \gary at the present time are only ja chapter of the struggle between | |Horthy and Bethlen, and that re- newed and increased combats are to jbe expected in which the workers, |peasants and Jews will be the vic- |tims. The statement is as follows: “During the last few weeks pog- | roms have been raging in all parts | f Hungary, aimed directly at the fewish residents, also against the jvorkers, their organizations and {press organs. “These attacks are led by the \‘Awakening Magyars,’ but they are | only a part of the struggle in which Count Bethlen, present premier, is | confronting Horthy, regent of Hun- gary. “This struggle is not new. It was vevived only recently, when Count Bethlen took measures to settle the question of running the government. Count Bethlen’s object is to put a king on Hungary's throne and thereby maintain his and his sur- rounding group’s political leader- ship. ' “Horthy has a dual aim in organ- izing pogroms and attacks against the workers. One is to demonstrate to the foreign countries that the | Bethlen cabinet is not stable. The i[}ther is to strike at the workers ind Jews at the expense of the 3ethlen government. “The struggle for political hege- mony has just started with in- creased strength. The bloody pog- roms and persecution of workers is only a prologue to what is coming. Every militant worker must protest against the murder of Jewe andj workers and denounce the brutality committed in the interest of two tyrants fighting for their own polit- ical power. " “The Anti-Horthy League has | sent a cablegram in the name of its own and a number of other organ- izations to the Hungarian govern- ment, protesting against the pog- roms and denouncing the persecu- tion of workers. “Our ‘League has asked every Hungarian organization and press organ in America to send their pro- test to the Hungarian government, which is afraid to take serious steps gainst the ‘Awakening Hungarians.’ nstead of convicting and imprison- Ing the ‘Awakening Magyars’ they\ jail the Jews and workers, who are defending themselves “against the brutality. “The danger of pogroms and per- secutions in Hungary will exist un- til both Bethlen and Horthy are de- posed. Only the workers and pea- sants government can protect the _vights of the Hungarian workers.” HIT PROPOSED PA. ANTI-LABOR LAWS Urge Workers to: Vote “No” on Amendments | PITTSBURGH, Oct. 28,—The Workers (Communist) Party of District 5 has issued an appeal to Pennsylvania workers urging them © vote against the proposed amend- ents to the state constitution which re directed against the working Sore of the amendments,” says) the statement, “are directly anti- labor, strike-breaking, militarist pro- posals, such as proposed amend- ment 4 to issue bonds to the amount of $5,000,000 for the purpose of erecting armories and equipping the state national guard; the pro- posed amendment 9 to authorize a Joan of $1,000,000 ‘to suppress in- surrections, to defend the state against war,’ etc. Also proposed amendment 1-A, aiming to increase the appointive power of the gov- ernor. “Likewise the measure against 4insurrections’ is an open challenge to the workers. The bosses know that the time is bound to come when the workers of this state will find themselves in such a miserable con- dition that they will be compelled ‘to rise against their exploiters and ppressors. “Any worker voting for these endments votes for another loody war and for approval of the strikebreaking role of the govern- ment.” i : White Supremacy Plea of Dixie Congressman NATCHEZ, Miss., (By Mail) — Speaking under the auspices of the Wilkinson Smith-for-President Club, at Centerville and at Woodville, Congressman Percy E. Quinn, stressed white supremacy as the out- standing issue which must be con- “a sidered by the southern voters in “he presidential race. He said that “th would go far to promote \}. supremacy in- caren n Wo Workers Slaved to Build Yacht for Millionaire Luxurious yacht, 181 feet long, belonging to Irving T.

Llewel- lyn, attorney for the McGarry forces, who arranged the incorporation. In issuing the statement, Llewellyn lets the cat out of the bag and proves without a doubt that the National Miners Union had the right slant on the McGarry faction from the very beginning. ‘The new organization will be a great boon to the anthracite dis- tricts and especially to the business men of these districts,” Llewellyn declared. Llewellyn further said that his clients “are planning to go before the Chambers of Commerce and fields to obtain approval of the new organization. Expose. Themselves. So that is that! The McGarry men want the Chambers of Com- merce to give them “holy unction” and then they will go to the miners and ask them to pay the bill. Mc- Garry will take his $5,500 wh salary ance with their ability to serve the bosses.

This is made possible through special arrangement with the editorial board of ‘“Gudok” (Whistle), the official daily paper of the Railroad Workers Union, with half a million circulation, ex- tending wherever the railroads go, into every nook of the far-flung Soviet Union. The greetings must of necess be short. But workers should write y | something about conditi in their own factories, comparing them with the conditions eleven years ago. Have they been getting better or worse during this period? The workers in the Soviet Union- point out that their conditions have been rapidly improving under the Soviet power. They want to know how the workers in the rest of the world, especially in the United States of America, are getting along, what their experiences are, thus giving them an opportunity to compare them with their own.
