New York City and foreign countries, there $5 ma year, anhattan “Price 3 Cents “Dead or Alive” IX persons, four of them Negroes, have been killed in Alabama in J what is called a “race war.” It is not that, but a bloody slaughter dof the Negroes, and two whites have been killed in what is obviously Gelf defense. A white mob is running loose shooting any Negro they feel like, specially those who happen to be of the same Roberston family of Negroes who were first killed. Two Robertsons have been killed, and he mob is searching for two of their brothers and their father. The contribution which the governor of Alabama makes to this ampaign of bloody race oppression and murder is to offer a reward ‘of $300 for any of the yet living members of the Robertson family unted down and brought in “dead or alive.” In short, the governor of Alabama, head of the capitalist govern- iment of that state, offers a prize to mobs and murderers. Capitalist government shows its bloody fangs, and in this ghastly butchery every worker who knows that the oppression of the Negro is a part of the capitalist system which robs and enslaves him, be he white or black, will defend the Negroes against the murderers and the capitalist government which incites and rewards their murderers. The atrocious action of the capitalist governor of Alabama proves that the fight for racial liberation of the Negroes, their full social, economic and political equality, can only be guaranteed by their right to have their own government in those regions where they constitute the majority of the population, as in some parts of Alabama they are 80 per cent of the population. The wave of lynching now sweeping over the country is an out- growth of the economic depression which the capitalist class dis- charges in unemployment, wage cuts and speed-up, upon the working elass, and with double force upon the oppressed Negro workers and farmers. White workers of the South should understand this economic basis of lynch violence against the Negroes, and refusing to yield to the race hatred hysteria that is incited and encouraged by their class enemy, the capitalists, who profit from the robbery of both white and Negro workers and poor farmers, should not only refuse to join the lynchers, but should actively come forward to defend the Negroes against lynching, and champion their right to social, economic and political equality. Lynching must stop! “ And workers, both white and black, are the only ones who can and will put a stop to it. 39 Grafters and “Socialis HAT the so-called “socialist” party has nothing whatever to do with socialism is a fact which has long been clear to class con- scious workers. But if any doubt it, the “socialist” party happily comes forward to prove it. There is corruption in New York City’s democratic capitalist gov- ernment, just as there is in the U. S. federal republican capitalist government. It is the nature of capitalist government to be corrupt. And the incredible thievery and graft of New York City officials under the capitalist government run by democrats under Walker, can hardly outdo the graft and thievery of the capitalist government in Berlin, Germany, run by the “socialists” under Herr Boess. If anyone thinks that grafters would flourish under a Communis’ regime, let us first tell them that a Communist regime represents a destruction of the capitalist government, a wiping out of the very basis of corruption by an abolition of the class relations which make up capitalism. Who is it that bribes the New York politicians? Not the workers, but: capitalists who can profit by it solely because the system of private property puts them in a position to extract profit from the working class. As to incidental dishonesty, embezzlement, and so on, anyone can | refer to the Soviet undertakers to give them a neat list of buried of- ficials who tried to put something over on the workers’ and peasants government, which is led, not “run” in-the Tammany sense, by the Communist Party. \ By the way, when the Soviet government discovered a grafter named Bessadovsky who embezzled some of its money while working in the Soviet embassy in France, and when the Soviet Government Jordered him to come back to Moscow for trial, it was the “socialist” ¢party which rushed to protect this embezzler, saying it was an “out- jrage,” a “political plot” and so on, and took him into the “socialist” party as a long lost. brother. So let us get things straight—the “socialist” pariy not only has nothing to do with socialism, it is opposed to socialism, and it has Why, then, does it Jone away with in the New York City nothing in principle against graft and grafters. «, say it wants “corruption” lgovernment? qt hing in de racy” and t Nothing is rruption in government is the most expensive Tt calls this capitalist government a “demo- ke workers believe it. from the truth, and it can be proved by the ther ernment itself. In the War Department “Manual of Citizenship” wwhich it uses to wise up the rich sons in R. O. T. C. camps and feapitalist colleges, it says that democracy is a vicious idea. That ‘the United States is not a democra and that the idea that “the will of the majority shall regulate . cense, agitation, discontent, anarchy.” The War Department goes on and makes clear that the right to vote doesn’t mean anything democratic. The workers have no right to strike, since it says that “there is no place for direct action.” They have no right to work either, as millions of jobless can testify. In fact the War Department coldly says: “The people are permitted (get that “permitted’!) to do only two things.” And what do you think those two things are? “They may (again, get the “may”!) vote once every four years for the Executive, and once in two years for the members of the legis- lative body.” Well, in short, they can vote for either of two or three capitalist grafters, which indeed isn’t much democracy. And when the Com- munist Party enters in the election with its candidates, the capitalist government does its royal darnedest to outlaw it, break up its meet- ings, club and jail its speakers, and throw its ballots in the waste basket if it succeeds in getting on in spite of all these obstacles. No democracy about that, is there? The government of the United States is a capitalist dictatorship, nothing less. The “social: 3” who try to make out that because the sham elections gives some people, not all, a “right” to vote, that this is a “democracy” are thus getting workers who believe this stuff to support the government, the dictatorship of the bosses. By thus trying to anchor the working class to a dictatorship that becomes more open as it adopts fascist methods in crushing the grow- ing discontent of the workers, who increasingly resent unemployment, wage slavery and war, the “socialists” try to give fascism a social base, a mass influence among the workers, and for that reason they are correctly known among workers as “social fascists.” The action of the “socialist” party in its demagogic campaign to purify capitalism, so it won't smell so rotten in the nostrils of the _ workers, is a typical social fascist game. To throw out grafters, throw out capitalism; to throw out capi- _talism, repudiate the socialist party and reject its policy. To advance the interests of the workers, support the Communist Party, the, fight for a Workers’ and Farmers’ Government! HEAVY BAIL FOR PICKET ‘LINE AT JINGO MOVIE NEW YORK.—Barcelo, Martinez and Estrada arrested for picketing the movie, “Under the Texas Moon,” came up before Judge Sil- verman at the Ninth Magistrate's Court yesterday, It was while carrying a placard protesting the slanderous jingoistic, race chauvinist movie calied “Under - results in demagogism, li- the Texas Moon” that Gonzalo Gon- zalez was shot and killed last week. To punish those who dare oppose capitalist discrimination, Comrade Levy and Gonzalez were murdered by the police, and now these five comrades are being railroaded and their cases are being made much of.

Picket Rule Monday Expose Comstock Trick His Association Built for Strike Breaking FLINT, Mich, July 7.—When company union program of “no mass picketing” and appeared in force before the gates of t'e Fisher Body Co. this morning, they were driven from the scene with bay- onets. The bosses had brought in the national guard, state troopers, and deputy sheriffs. A solid line of bayonetted rifles bore down on the strikers and drove them all the way to the city limits and miles beyond. The role of the company union is plain. It is quite obvious that the bosses organized this so-called “Auto Workers Association” to smash the strike. The bosses raid- ed, and the newly formed company union gang repeat, the charges of “outsiders” and “reds,” to try and split some of the strikers away from the Auto Workers Union, the main backbone of strike organiza- tion, which spread the strike from a little walkout of 500 skilled work- ers in the metal finishers depart- ment, to a mass strike of 5,000 which closed the plant down and won support from other plants. Comstock Gets In. Comstock is a dubious character in the metal finishers group. When the 500 skilled workers came out, he got on their strike committee. When the strike spread to other departments, the original strike committee was retained, with the addition of members of the other | departments. The task now before the strikers is to create a real strike committee, under rank and file control, elected from among the main body of the strikers, with all departments well represented, Special Meeting Tomorrow. Wednesday morning a_ special meeting has been called by the Auto Workers Union. Leafletseissued by the A. W. U. are being distributed, calling on all strikers to realize the treachery of the Comstock group and to continue the fight under the leadership of the Auto Workers Union. They are particularly urged not to be demoralized, and to continue mass picketing and wage a militant struggle. At present there are 35 still in jail including Philip Raymond, of the Auto Workers Union, Alfred Goetz of the Metal Workers Indus- trial League, and Andonoff, of the International Labor Defense.

Crain, who spoke in Tam- jmany Hall on July 4 and declared |that “our glorious constitution as jsures us trial by jury,” was evi |dently thinking of the long line of |Tammany judges, Vitale, Vause, | Ewald, etc., who, when caught in jthe act, always get juries—good friendly juries. But he did not mention that a Communist, whose crime is not graft but the act of organizing workers for a fight against the system of the grafters, the exploiters, those who starve the workers in millions through unemployment, should have a trial by jury. Crain shoved the tive delegates of the unemployed, sent by 110,000 massed in Union | Square on March 6 to the city hall to demand “work or wages,” right through the court of special sessions without a trial by jury. And the |highest state courts of appeal have refused to interfere with his action. This is no answer to the workers and jobless of New York, or the hundreds of thousands of jobless there. They showed what they thought when they sent a big dele- gation to Chicago to the National |Convention of the Unemployed, just jheld successfully in the face of every variety of police terror. They will give another answer at the polls and by signing the formal demand to have the names of the |Communist Party candidates put on the ballot. The New York state election cam- paign committee of the Communist Party says: “The workers in New York will answer the boast of District Attor- ney Crain when he states that the most important decision in :he last ten years in New York County was the conviction of William Z. Foster, R. Minor, I. Amter, H. Raymond and | | | Joseph Lesten. The workers of New York will unite in a movement to answer these bosses’ representa- tives. These comrades are in jail because they fought for ihe de- mands of the workers in New York They are serving a three years’ sen- tence for this very reason. We |must rally all our forces to free | them. The answer of the workers of New York to the jailing of Com- rades Foster, Minor and Amter was | to nominate them for the leading posts in the present election cam- paign. Comrade Foster, although in jail, is our candidate for governor. |He calls upen the workets of New |York to rally behind the Communist |Party, which is the only Party of the working class. “This boast of District Attorney | |Crain is linked up with the perse- | cution and attacks against the | members of the Communist Party.

These workers died |fighting as brave soldiers in work- ing-class struggle. Their death will only bring renewed energy in the campaign of the Communist Party and revolutionary trade unions “These acts must stimulate all revolutionary workers of New York in the present signature drive to put the Communist Party candidates on the ballot. This signature cam- paign gives us an opportunity to reach new sections of the workers and to bring to them the message of struggle against the bosses. Every worker must within the next few weeks carry on this important ac- | tivity by reporting at the various | section headquarters of the Jommu- nist Party. Everyone must ve out to make this drive a success.” GANDHI LEADER SELLS WORKERS Patel Promises Bosses to Enrich Them BOMBAY, India, July 7.—Sun- day, while police were beating up a crowd of demonstrators against British imperialism in Poona, a | speech was made to a gathering of |millionaire Parsees, in which they {wer promised unlimited loot from the exploitation of Indian workers if they follow the Gandhi movement. The meeting was addressed by Vallabhai Patel, president vu: the All-India Nationa’ Congress (the or- ganized Gandhi movement), and he said: “It has been suggested that the under swaraj, but instead of being millionaires as at present you would all become multi-millionaires ander swaraj,” he said. “Swaraj,” as the Ganrhists use it, is one of those equivocal words which such treacherous elements know how to handle well and to popularize. It might mean ‘ndepen- dence, } ut again, it might’mean do- minion status, or even less, if the Gandhi leaders thought that .h: -eby they could trick their following into giving up the fight. But there is no doubt that in any form of waraj contemplated by the Gandhists the workers and peasants will be used to obtain it and made slaves ander it. Lately the workers and peasants have more and more shown an in- clination to take a stand for them- selves and for real independence, not only from British imperialism, but also from capitalist exploitation. | been absent two consecutive meet- ings.

What Tens i 4500 FURRIERS OPEN JULY DRIVE Clothing Workers to Mobilize Saturday NEW YORK.—An enormous and tensely enthusiastic meeting of at least 3,500 workers blocked traffic in 29th St. yesterday noon at the} call of the Needle Trades Workers Industrial Union for am open air meeting in the fur market to start |a campaign of shop strikers for a July raise in wages. The fight for a raise in fur workers’ wages is a tradition in New York. The com- pany union, the International Fur Workers Union, with the besses’ agent Kaufman selling out the workers, will of course do nothing to carry on this tradition. Fire and Hire—Cheaper. There were several large shops which laid off 50 per cent of their workers Thursday in order to try and hire them back now at a re- duced wage. All this is with the aid and consent of the company union, at Kaufman’s union. Police came down on the meet- ing, and half a dozen burly Tam- many sluggers in uniform tried to} disperse the crowd. They soon found that the crowd didn’t intend to disperse, and they wisely faded away. The meeting went on for an hour, with Pinchfsky as chair- man, and Potash and Winogradsky as the main speakers. A large number came over to the offices of the industrial union and joined. The strike movement wiil inélude both open shops and shops where tne International Fur Workers has stablished its company union, Tomorrow there will be a meet~ ing of the executive of the shop delegate council of the industrial nion, at 7:30 in the union office at 131 West 28th St. Mass Meeting Saturday July 15 will see the great mass meeting of men clothing wor! at Cooper Union (A spe ar’ on this will appear in tomorrow's issue of the Daily Worker) and in preparation for it, on Saturday, at noon there will be,a big open air mass meeting of men’s clothing workers and other workers at Union Square and Fifteenth St., right op- posite the main stronghold of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers— its bank and a building where its officers have palatial headquarters. The meeting will be one of pro- test against wage cuts and unem- ployment engineered in the men’s clothing shops by the Amalgamated ruling clique’s efficiency and class collaboration schemes. Half of the men’s clothing work- ers are unemployed. Part of this is due to the general crisis, but a large part is also due to the an- nounced policy of the Hillman gang, as stated by one of them: “When the boss has to improve his system of production he doesn’t call experts from outside but calls on the Amal- gamated Clothing Workers Union itself.” Fire Hundreds. The result is that efficiency emes and “reorganization” has ted in firing of whole batches a hundred workers at a time in ‘any shops. Just lately Cohen & ang discharged 90 workers as a direct result of one of Hillman’s efficiency plans. Other workers than men’s cloth- ing workers are called to the mass meeting Saturday because the fight against wage cuts and starvation and gangster attacks is the fight of the whole working class and par- ticularly of the whole needle in- dustry.
