The bourgeoisie internationally, have long ago realized the direct connection between sports and the preparation of the working class for the defense of imperialist in terests at home and abroad. They are not losing any time in the ap- plication of this knowledge. | We may hereby cite a few con-| crete examples.

In August of this year the British gov-| ernment is planning to stage an Em-| pire Olympies in Canada. The object of these “Olympics” is} very obvious, to win influence over certain colonial countries, create | “good will” and consolidate the base | of the respective imperialist powers | in the colonies. At home, we find that the bourg- | eoisie are spending millions of dol- | lar: each ar to promote sports. Not with the object of furthering | the health of the youth but to pre- | pare them physically and mentally fo: wars. We quote from the Ama- | leading bourgeois sport organiza- evidence a tremendous athletic boom in these countries.” The strong company sports move: ment, the city recreation activities and all other forms of bourgeois sports have but one main object in view—and that is to prepare the youth for the defense of the imper- ialist “fatherland.” Workers Sports. Opposed to this bosses sports movement is the Labor Sports Union which is a militant working class organization fighting for the inter. es. of worker sportsmen on the field and supporting the struggles of the working class generally.

The | worker sportsmen must not only {come to demonstrate against the war danger and the use of sports as a means of war preparation but they must also come out as active defenders of the demonstrations against the attacks of the police and fascist forces.

Worker sportsmen! Out into the demonstrations on August First! “public opinion.” In fact “public opinion” was manufactured. There were “Flag Days,” Preparedness Parades”—out of one in San Fran- cisco there grew the infamous frame up against Mooney and Billings. But foremost of all, the “German gold” was tagged onto the I.W.W. (Industrial Workers of the World). Though the I.W.W. has become only a memory today, in those days, it was, in a very confused and clumsy, but earnest way, trying to organize fighting industrial unions. Some few hoped that it might do something effective against the world slaughter As a purely pro- letarian organization its natural membership reaction was against imperialist war The screaming cap- italist propaganda against it as a “disloyal” body, won it great favor among wide mrsses of workers. But the syndicalist tendency of the lead- ership, obsessed by the idea that during the war by friendly com- parison of notes with his “enemies” of the last war, says that “British propaganda, spreading its web from London, was active at all times, be- fore, during and after the war.” Busy, that is, in America. Spies Still Busy. We hereby flatly assert that it is still busy. The name of any per- son appearing as active in the Com- munist movement, is registered in every British consulate in America and in Scotland Yard.

Unemployment in _the USSR “Unemployment in Russia, too!” vell the defenders of capitalism in every country, and they can point .o Soviet Government figures show- mg on April 1, 1930, a total of 100,000 listed on the labor exchanges as without work. Of course, 900,000 is not 7,000,000, is in the United States, or over 3,000,000, as in Germany, or 1,890,- 600, as in England, by June figures. But the important thing is, what tind of unemployment is it in these countries, and what are the trends? ve Where It Grows. The unemployment in the United States is basic. The workers are being discharged in masses, in hun+ dreds and thousands, when whole plants close down or drastic cuts are made. In addition, skilled work- ers are being thrown out, replaced by their wives in some cases, re- placed by children, replaced by other workers who now do two men’s work for one man’s pay, and with 4 wagecut at that. This is true of all capitalist coun- vies. Unemployment is growing ‘here. Where It Decreases. The Soviet Union Review gives an analysis of the unemployed regis- tered (and they are all registered) nthe U.S. S. R. First of all, un- der the stimulus of the Five-Year wlan, the numbers are reduced dur- ‘ng one year, from April, 1929, to ‘une, 1980, from 1,741,000 to 900,- 900, Unemployment is still going down. During the last year, at a time vhen some four million were added the army of the jobless in the } United States, 4,200,000 left the |farms of the Soviet Union and were |added to the list of workers in the |factories and construction enter- prises. Still more important is a study of |those actually waiting jobs in the U. S. S. R. There are practically no skilled workers seeking employ- |ment. The overwhelming majority are those waiting for their first |work (not counted as unemployed by the United States census takers); those who have no definite |employment (they would not. be |eounted by the U. S. census as un- employed) and peasants, newly ar- |rived in the cities from the farms, unskilled, of course, and not yet given their first job. (They would |not be counted as unemployed by the U. S. census.) High Percentage Women. Some figures show what it is like in particular exchanges. In Moscow there were no adult men workers waiting for jobs on April 1. Of the 136,000 registered, 110,000 were women; half of the total were young workers who had never worked before, Outside of the capital, to which everybody wants especially to go, there is even less unemployment. In Leningrad, in March, there were but 24,00 on the exchange, practically all of them young workers, living at home and asking for their first job, and women workers, housewives whose children have grown up, young wives whose husbands have died, ete. The treatment of unemployed, of course, has no comparison.

Yet they live rational lives, in many respects superior to ours. It is a secure society in the sense that none fears old age. Starvation or hunger is unknown; if one fam- ily is by some act of nature de- | prived of food, the more fortunate ones see that the unfortunate are fed.” There are lots of other ad- | vantages about living among can- | nibals rather than among capital- ists, but we'll merely mention that when Fish and Mattie Woll want to deport us, since there seems to be some legal obstacle to sending us to our choice land, the socialist society of the Soviet Union, please | send us to New Ireland as a second | choice, only leave the Irish cops be- hind.

Last year on this day a very small sec- RED SPARKS spirit medium suddenly cried out that she saw Rudyard Kipling tak- ing a seat on a vacant chair, that is to say, she saw his ghost, as the old duffer had kicked the bucket a week before. Moreover, she said he was “wearing evening dress,” some heavenly tailor having worked overtime at Sidney Hillman’s “ad- justed” wages, it seems, to get it ready for the big show. Immedi- ately on hearing this news, Walter E. Corwin, collector of internal (mo, not eternal!) revenue for the Eastern District of New York, filed an income tax lien for $2,104.50 against Kipling in the Federal Court, Brooklyn, saying Kipling’s residence is Garden City, Long Island. If Kipling goes fooling around Long Island he’s sure to get cornered. Per Ue THE “CORDIAL RELATIONS” SCORE A dangerous foreigner named Mulrooney recently came out strong for improving the “cordial relations” between the police and the people of New York. In Tuesday’s paper we noticed it at work. Item 1:— Scene; Brooklyn dance hall: “When it was learned Coulter was a police- man, he was assaulted, knocked down and kicked by the male danc- ers. Item 2, Scene: Brooklyn streets: “Detective Jeremiah Leake, chasing suspected auto thief, Final- di; 28 years old. Mrs. Woods, Fin- ald’s grandmother threw her arms about the detective, beseeching him not to hurt her grandson, who ran into alley, pursued by Leake, who tired six shots, one hit the boy in the back, killing him. Detective Captain Carey is trying to establish whether or not the car Finaldi was driving was stolen, but has exoner- ated Detective Leake.” Small won- der the Brooklyn boys put the boots dial relations.” rahe wena REAL SIAMESE TWINS From a current swill-barrel paper we get the idea that the economic erisis has hit things hard. “The Siamese twin business is not what it used to be,” it says. In New Jer- sey, a couple of girls, sisters, ge to court against a side-show prop-ietor. They are demanding back pay for the work they do, which is faking Siamese twins (supposed to be joined together by flesh so that they must live tied up that way for life). The girls faked it with a wad of rags and flesh-colored rubber cov- ering. Kind of funny, but it’s only a very small example of how crooked- ness thrives under capitalism. Hoo- ver gets a billion dollars to build warships and plans to make a fuss in the elections over achieving “peace” and “disarmament.” Capi- talism and crookedness are the real Siamese twins. WHAT FOR ‘F.0.R? The Fellowship of Reconciliation (F.0.R.) is in grave danger of a split, despite its name. A referen- dum to members signed by no less a bigwig than the scantified social- fascist, A. J, Muste, reveals that there are three “wings” in the F.O, R. and the situation is most grave. The terrible thing is, that it’s all over Jesus. The three “wings” con- flicting ideas are stated as “Posi- tion A”, “B” and “C”, The alpha- bet leaves room for more, but that’s enough for the unreconciled recon- ciliationists. We looked ’em over to see what the heck it was all about, maybe there might be a ‘left’ wing. But darned if we could find any. It seems that after having built up the organization, somebody ize a workers sports club in each factory! All out to the August First demonstrations! got the idea that it should declare that it stood for something. Hence all the row. Summarizing “A”, its | adherents say that the F, 0. R. must R. “purpose” is that “Love elim- inates barriers of class,” ete. Work- ers can try that on the boss, but we won't guarantee results. The “B” position is to—“Omit all Specific Reference to Jesus”, claiming |“That in retaining these symbols and terms we take the position of | some in the early church who would not accept believers unless they sub- mitted to the rite of circumscion.” We would say that any worker who follows Muste into the A. F. of L. can expect not only circumscion, but castration. However, the “B-ites” are dead set against bosses being discriminated against by workers, and say the F. O. R. invites all “who are ready to adventure upon the way of love”, and we judge from what they say that the uncircum- sized are welcome. “Position C” is for “Referring Definitely to the Way of Life Exemplified by Jesus, but Not to Leave this Reference Ex- clusive” (whatever that means), though they say they welcome those who have faith “in the way of love from other approaches.” Concrete- ly, they propose that F, O. R. mem- bers can believe in Whalen’s “way of love” with blackjacks, as they are for members who hold different views “as to the employment of phy- sical restraint in civil life, either by individuals or police.” All told, it’s a hard choice Mr. Muste hands out, but you can bet that he will go with the police, Jesus or no Jesus. A LONG TIME TO ROOST The United Press, thinking this an important solution for the world economic crisis, wired the following from Chicago Jast Thursday: “Frank Ward, 19, and out of a job, is sitting government,” and that was “not the business. of industrial unionism.” And in the great five-months long Chicago trial for “seditious con- spiracy” the government’s auditors of I.W.W. bovks, plainly stated that the organization had been financed solely by its members and sympa- thizers, while no evidence was ever of the I.W.W. were convicted after the long and farcical trial, and sen- tenced to as much as twenty years every August First and see what sensible workers are doing to get “Work or Wages”. Also, there is grave danger from squirrels. eee NEW LEADERS FOR OLD Without cost to the so-called “so- cialist party” or its organ “The New Leader” we joyfully reproduce the following tidbit: “Socialist Cigars Now Packed 25 to Box. For the con- venience of smokers, the ‘Karl Marx’, 10-cent size, cigars, are now being packed in boxes of 25 each.” We suggest a change in the ad, such as—‘Social-fascist _ Cabbage Smokes, ‘Norman Thomas’, two-bit size, cigars, are now packed in same box as republicans and democrats, each rolled in toilet tissue bearing Abe Cahan’s latest witticism: ‘Karl Marx was a nice fellow, but he died in 18837.” d oe WE'RE AWFULLY SORRY But these funny men who tell thé farmers to feed wheat to the Berk- shire pigs, “adding that farmers can save $10 a ton by feeding wheat in- stead of corn”, reminds me of the chap who send me a box of goods once and wrote me: “Thinking that you didn’t have any claw-hammer to open the box, I’m sending one; you will find it inside the box.” These wise hombres forget to teli the farmers what to do with their corn, or how much it will be worth if left unused, or who's going to buy all the wheat when it is transformed in- in a tree. ‘Ill stay here unti] some- body gives me a job,’ he said.” While it may save Frank a couple of years or so rent, we opine that it would be more sensible to come down to porkchops? Outside of these Jit- tle things, the wise guys are abso- lutely correct. Demonstrate August Ist! aration of American “public opin- ion” for war until 1917, Then Sir William Wiseman took the job, Wil- son giving him the key to the White House, so to speak, No American could board a ship in any American port without a British Provost Mar- shall named Thwaite, giving his ap- proval. Sir Wiseman gave Arthur to capitalism, is very careful to keep out of his “exposures” the fact that real spies were let go with a scare even when arrested while militant workers, fighting for wages, hours and conditions, were ruthlessly suppressed. He is very careful not to reveal the anti-work- ing class nature of the whole secret service gang of all capitalist powers. Secret Service Against Workers. But with the plot which every child should understand, hatched at London for imperialist war against the Soviet Union, being carried out before our eyes, only a simpleton would deny that the furious anti- Communist drive now being carried on, is free from deliberate and con- scious secret service backing. It is against these nefarious war plots, against the fortress of working class freedom, that American workers protest on August 1, It was not for nothing that Sir Henry Deterding, who has financed numerous anti-Soviet forgeries in Europe, forgeries publicly exposed a> his work and not denied by him, hos made two recent trips to Amer= ica, It is not for nothing that in his wake the infamous “Whalen for- geries” appeared. And it was not fo nothing, not even for “patriot- ism,” that such corrupt and pur- chasable scoundrels as MatthewWoll ana Ralph M. Easley are putting over their “Red plot” stories in the capitalist press, encouraging the Fish “investigation.” It is not for nothing of the sort. It pays. And Matthew Woll and Co. will do any= thing for pay. ’ Sir Henry Deterding has “the re- sotrees of a great empire.” His business is to get a war against the Soviet Union. Matthew Woll and — Ralph M!
