Incapable of developing the country itself, the colonial bour- geoisie ushers in the imperialists, who, of course, will not and cannot give the country real industrializa- tion but will merely exploit the masses to their heart’s content. The mount of industrial development that the imperialists will inevitably bring to the colonies is strictly limited to those that are necessary to imperialist exploitation, and no | more.

This means that the social fascists promise to give the fascists a free hand if the latter will carry out its threat to deprive Communist members of Parliament the right to take part in legislative work in Par- liament. The fascist, or anti-Communist movement, which is a significant step in the war preparations against the Soviet Union, is creating great | excitement in the country as parlia- ment will be summoned on Tuesday specially for the purpose of enacting anti-Communist legislation. The recent wave of fascist out-| rages in Finland, financed and in- spired from foreign imperialist sources, and assisted by Social} Democratic labor traitors at home, | are, as usual, accompanied by phys-| ical violence to militant workers and | Communists. A large number of | Communists, including membe: have been kidnapped while they are; in the rural districts.

Upon the instigation of the busi- ness agent of Local 164 of the Amalgamated Food Workers, the pickets were arrested Saturday and held for court on $300 and $50 bail each. Attacked by a gang of A. F. W. thugs before the Gordon Dairy at 77th St. and Davison Ave., the Bronx, where the Food Workers’) Industrial Union has declared a strike, M. Pinkevsky, a food work- er, was later arrested and held on the charge of felonious assault. The case came up at the 161st street court and was postpongd un- til July 2nd. Both strikes are continuing de- spite the disruptive tactics of the A. F. W. clique. N. J. Red Election Picnic on July 6th NEWARK, N.

The annual | | baseball game between the Commv- | | nist Party and the Young Commu- | |nist League attracted a large sec-| | tion of the picnicers.

The workers present had an op- portunity to hear the issues of the} present election campaign, and the/ }many problems confronting the| | workers. Leonard Patterson, can- | didate for assemblyman in the 2ist district, Manhattan, told the wor ers of the murder of Alfred Levy, a Negro delegate to the July 4th Un- | employed Convention in Chicago, by | the Garveyite fakers and the po- | lice last Friday, and called upon | them to mobilize in mass for the funeral Tuesday afternoon. | sand | | | } | Postpone Labor Sports Convention NEW YORK.—The Secretariat | of the Labor Sports Union of Amer- | ica has decided to postpone the Na- tional Convention from the 1-2-3 of August till Sept. 26-27-28, Also in- stead of Detroit the convention will be held in Cleveland. The reasons for the postponement are that more time is needed to mobilize the membership for the convention. In place of the convention on August 2-8 there will be held a/ broad L. S. U. conference in Detroit | which will serve as further means | for mobilization for the Convention. | Physical Culture ing Pl Comrade Burlak brought the revolutionary greetings of Pow- ers, Carr, Newton, Storey and Mary Dalton, who, like herself, face the electric chair for organizing the starving mill slaves of the South. Des ‘ibing one of the most vicious chapters in that part of American labor history which is written in the blood of the workers, she stated: “In order to convict the six class |war prisoners of Atlanta, Ga., the Southern mill bosses are not resort- ing to a ‘fake charge’ as bosses in other parts of the country have done in railroading workers to the peni- tentiary and death. No! the South- ern bosses are more direct in theit vicious persecution. These workers are being tried because they are Communists. They face the electric chair for organizing starving and terrorized mill slaves into unions. |The law that casts the shadow of death over these comrades is an echo from the slave days of 1861 ane carries with it the extreme pen- alty of death for any one who raises a protest against the brutal tyranny of capitalism. “This is a great battle in the class ! It is class against class. Legal procedure will not save the Atlanta prisoners. Only militant labor strongly organized can. From the dark cells of Fulton prison I bring these words to you: Newton and Storey must not die! Mary Dalton, Powers and Carr, must not meet death in the electric ghair! We do not want to be martyrs, but organ- izers! We must again take our places in the ranks of the class war. It is our organizations that are on trial, it is our class which faces the terrorism of the bosses. “Organize and fight with the ILD for the release of our comrades who face death in Atlanta dungeons!” CHICAGO SHOE UNION CALLS FOR FIGHT CHICAGO, Ill, June 30.—“We produce twice as much as we used to produce two or three years ago. The vicious speed-up drains the last ounce of energy from us. Meanwhile, the bosses are prepar- ing for more wage-cuts, for still more speed-up. We are being ter- | rorized on the job. There are signs hung all over the factories, “Don’t Talk.” This means more profit for | the bosses and is an attempt to de- prive us of the opportunity to dis- |euss the terrible conditions under which we work. When we are laid off, but generally promise us jobs later, but generally we never get our jobs back, because of the speed-up and new machinery that takes our places.” This is contained in a statement of the Independent Shoe Workers’ Union to the slaves in that indus- try in Chicago. It tells of work- ing only two or three days a week, of the 9-hour day for those who do work, with a $20 a week wage for men and $18 for women, Shoe workers are urged to get in touch with the union at 23 S. Lincoln St. Demand the release of Fos- ter, Minor, Amter and Ray- mond, in prison for fighting for unemployment insurance.

Although the bosses offered a ten cent in- crease, the metal finishers stuck solidly by their workmates and re- fused to work. At noon hour, in response to a strike leaflet issued by the Auto Workers’ Union local, the men re- entered the factory and immediat ly came out on strike in a body of somewhere between 500 and 700 men. Nearly all the workers in the entire plant were sent home, due to the tie-up resulting from the strike. The members of the local Auto Workers’ Union are rendering every possible assistance to the strikers and—in spite of the re tance of police and detectives of the General Motors who surround the factory, have issued a leaflet to the workers appealing for an Demand the release of Fos- ter, Minor, Amter and Ray- mond, in prison for fighting for unemployment insurance.
