Labor Party Hides Record. The workers and farm tenants of ngland have expressed their dis- atisfaction with the strikebreaking nd starvation policies of the Bald- sin government by turning it out of ffice. The labor party reaped nany of the votes because of its xeuse that the reactionary acts of he MacDonald ministry, the shoot- ng of Indian peasants, the sword attling and big navy program, the ushing of warships to China and Igypt, were due to the fact that it was in office but not in power” n the previous occasion and was \indered by the lack of a clear ma- ority in parliament. Communists point out that the la- vor party bureaucracy has contin- ted its acts of treachery to labor ince leaving the government, hav- ng betrayed the general strikey ought militancy in every union and urrendered to the Mond plan, and hat MacDonald has in this very lection campaign declared that ‘solving the unemployment problem s not a thing that can be done in 1 year or so.” They have told the voters to remember that MacDonald lid not do a single thing for the un- smployed when he held office, and hat there is no indication that he vill do any more if the labor party ‘akes over the government now.

Some of he rural voting places did not closé ntil 9 p. m. Sir Thomas Inskip, attorney gen- ral, was defeated in Bristol. He sas supposed to have a safe con- ervative constituency. In 70 dis- ricts reported, 40 went to the labor arty, with the loss of 19 seats for he conservatives.

Bie JAIL 2 LAUNDRY STRIKE PICKETS Workingclass Families Back Struggle The arrest of two striking laun- dry drivers who were picketing the Starlight Laundry, 2075 Washington Ave., Bronx, was Wednesday engi- neered by the bosses of the laundry. The workers are Alexander Gold- smith, 455 Jackson Ave., and Morris Shiffman, 860 Cauldwell Ave. Strikers continue to picket the Fairview Laundry, Ave., and the Jersey Laundry, 1690 Jerome Ave., and are looking to an early victory. The workers are fighting for rec- | ognition of the union and improved | in | conditions.

The Vestris went down off the Virginia Capes on Noy. 12 with a loss of 111 lives. “I thought the water was coming into the cross-alleyway through the top port half-doors,” Adams testi- fied, “and then was getting below into the starboard bunkers.” The list, he continued, was par-| ticularly noticeable after the ship struck heavy seas on the night ot Noy. 11. He had no idea of the cause, “although it might possib!y have been due to the shifting of the cargo.” Imperialism is, at tne same time the most prostitute ana the ultim- ate form of the State power which nascent middle-class society had commenced to elaborate as a means of its own emancipation from feud- alism, and which full-grown bour- weois society had finally trans- formed into a means for the en- slavement of labor by capital. — Marx, Fight Unionism. | | Resentful because of the growing influence and activity of Local 164, | the clique in 500 persuaded the boss jof the Zingesser Bakery, 242 E. | 169th St., Bronx, to repudiate his agreement with Local 164 and sign up with Local 500, The union immediately called a strike and established picketing.

BOSTON SCARED OF USSR MOVIES Reactionary Preachers and Old Ladies Howl BOSTON, May 30.—Boston’s blue- bloods, who saw Sacco and Vanzetti go to the electric chair without flick- ing an eyelash, have discovered a} | menace threatening the “foundations of the republic.” It is Russian | movies. The seat of the menace in Boston is the newly-established Art- kino Guild Theatre, wh re Russian| cinemas are boldly exhibited along with German productions. The Rev. Dr. A. Z. Conrad, plu- perfect patriot, is raising the hue and cry over the newest menace, “Nothing could be more ruinous,” he preached, “than allowing Russian propaganda to be spread without constraint” Mrs. B. L. Robinson, president of the Massachusetts In- terests League, also joined the chorus. Movie men in Boston shook their heads gloominly at th-:e fulmina- tions. “Most of the world’s good films are coming from the Soviet Union,” they say. “The End of St. Petersburg,” a Soviet film, was adjudged the best film of 1928 by New York movie critics last year. | | PLASTERS GAIN.

Wrecking Conditions. Workers declare that the Hillman machine is dragging the organiza- tion deeper and eper into the swamp of bureaucracy and corrup- tion.
