N the 13th Anniversary of the November n, the tremendous advance of agri- the Soviet Union stand in bold relief against the former lot of the peasants and the deep of culture in capitalist countries. he Revolution brought many advantages to Ru n peasants—land, higher standard of living. Still his lot was hard, his tools and methods were primitive, the | hours of work for himself and his family were long and tiring, the crops were poor and his cow, hhorse or pigs, if he was fortunate enough to have them, were ill-kept. Under such conditions {t was impossible for these poor and middle class peasants to main- tain a poor living for themselves and raise enough grain and food to supply the workers fm the city. The city had to depend, to a large Gegree, upon the grasping capitalist Kulak (rich peasant, who harshly exploited some of the poor its) for their grain. Here was a knotty problem for the workers to Bolve, the problem of raising the peasants out of their hard conditions and of freeing the city's @rain supply from the control of the capitalist Kulak. The enemies of the Soviet Union were Bleefully prophesying that the agricultural prob- lem would be the insurmountable stumbling block over which socialism would be tripped up, tm the Soviet Union. The great wave of poor and middle peasants Into collective farms which began with the fall of 1 has given a decisive answer to these enemies. Socialism is being built in the country on the fatms. In the first programs for indus- trial reconstruction, important plans were laid for the manufacture of tractors, farm machinery ‘and other necessities for the peasants. The suc- ess of reconstruction and the first years of the Five Year Plan have made possible a great ad- vance in Soviet farming. In order to abolish the primitive methods of the peasants, to utilize mew methods and machinery efficiently, it was necessary to have much larger farms than the small strips which the peasants used to farm. Monstrous state farms were started by the gov- ernment, and the peasants beginning to realize the great advantages of large scale farming started combining their plots of ground into big collective farms which are cultivated coopera- tively. Whole communities began to combine. The aim of the Soviet workers is to turn agri- Culture into great industries, great grain “fac- tories,” cotton growing works, etc., where the Peasants are to become like the city workers, working on great collective and state farms. Like the factories, these great farms are owned and controlled “by the workers, they will re- ceive the same cultural benefits, social insur- &nce, the same control of the products of their Yabor as the city workers have under socialism. Now on the 13th Anniversary the farms or- @anized by the state possess an area of 914 mil- lion acres, next year they will expand to 20 million acres. The Five Year Plan calling for 12%4 million acres will be accomplished in three years. The collective farms, organized by the poor and middle peasants joining together, con- trolled this year 90 million acres. The Five-Year Plan calling for the collectivization of 50 million fcres has been far more than carried out in two years. Twenty-three per cent of the peasants’ farms have been collectivized for the whole So- viet Union, but in the great grain producing Sections of the Ukraine and the North Caucasus, 60 to 67 per cent were collectivized at the time of the fall harvest. The present movement into the collectives has no doubt raised these figures Considerably. In the spring sowing this year ver 14 million more acres were cultivated. Be- Bides, such crops as cotton, sugar beets, clover, ®oya beans, sunflowers, tobacco, kenaf, vegetables, Btc., have greatly increased. )_ So great is the success of collectivization that the Kulak, the last stronghold of capitalistic ®lements, can be done away with. In 1929 the overnment received its grain from the follow- Ing sources: freedom and a8 | Government or state farms . vee 35% Collectives + 85%, Poor an@ middle peasants 65%, BNUAKSC. 5 Acs scaacwieen et .- 23% In 1930 the government receives its grain from the following: Government farms ~ 8% Collective farms ... “4y, Individual Poor and Middle Peasants 45°, Kulaks Cate teres Penvaaae eo 8% The government no longer needs to depend upon the Kulak, but gets 52 per cent of its grain from the socialist sector. Besides, this year, the collective and government farms have added 36 per cent to the cultivated area, the sowing of grain increased 9 per cent, the gen- eral harvest was 12 per cent better, the govern- ment and collective farms yielded 13 per cent more than the individual farms, and the harvest of government farms yiglded 40 per cent more per acre than individual farms. Industry and agriculture cooperate closely and are being more and more bound together by the ties of sociaaism. Industry and the government give great aid to the collective farms, furnish- ing seed, fertilizer, credit, machinery, tractors and other forms of help. This year production of agricultural machinery reached a value of $208,000,000. Next year the value will be $439,- 000,000. This means that the Soviet Union will exceed the annual output of American agricul- tural machine factories. Tractor plants are being built which will produce many more trac- tors than the United States produces. Thus farm work is being done in industry. Comrade Yakovlev, Commissar of Agriculture in the So- viet Union, states that already the figures from the grain trusts and the tractor stations show that “the main part of the work required for growing wheat is no longer performed in the field itself, but in the iron works and oil in- dustry.” It used to take the peasant 230 work- ing hours to grow summer wheat on 2% acres, on the state farms this is now done in 9 hours, the tractor being used for 214 hours. Thou- sands of industrial workers helped the farmers | in their sowing and harvesting. Collectivization means tremendous changes in the standard of living of the peasants, For example, in a section of the North Caucasus, the income of a middle peasant jumped over 100 per cent as a result of the first collective harvest, from 250 to 590 rubles per year. New creameries, vineyards, orchards, mills, schools, clubs, dining rooms, theatres, etc. are being built on the collective farms. The work of women is being made much easier by com- munal kitchens, communal nurseries, gardens, ete. The culture and advantages of the city are being brought to the country. The drudgery and bleak isolation which used to exist in the country will be destroyed forever. Model vil- lags are to be built on collectives in the Soviet Union, where the farm workers will have all the advantages that a socialist society can supply. Such plans and such advantages arise in sharpest contrast with capitalist countries, where the poor and middle farmers live under the heel of landlords, creditors, bankers, exorbitant taxes, etc., so that they cannot afford new machinery and tractors, but are continually being pressed into deeper misery. Here in the U. S. the rich farmers have all the advantages, the poor and middle farmers suffer all the hardships. Here only the rich benefit from the best machinery and the little large scale farming which is done; there the Kulaks are being eliminated and the poor and middle farmers reap the big benefits of the great collective farms, the benefits of new machinery and tractors. Here there is an- tagonism and a growing gap between agriculture and industry, there country and city cooperate and grow closer and closer together. Here the more the farmers produce, the worse off they are; there greater production brings better homes, better food, more leisure, more books, more cultural advantages. Peasants are becom- ing workers, like those in the cities, with all the advantages and privileges which it means to be a Worker in the Soviet Union. Murderers ot the Negro Masses Expose Themselves ¥ By BILL GEBERT. r the last few days before the November 4th elections Bill Thompson, the republican mayor bf Chicago issued a leaflet to the Negroes in Chicago quoting ex-Senator Medil McCormick who said that race riots in 1929 were “a matter of justification.” Mayor Thompson places the responsibility for the riots on the Chicago Trib- uns and the McCormick family and called on thd Wegroes to vote for the Democratic candidate tor Benate—Hamilton Lewis. | In answer to the leaflet of Mayor Thompson the republican party issued a 16 page pamphlet in which it charged that it is nobody else but ~ the democrats who are responsible for the race riots and quoted speeches delivered by Hamilton Lewis during the time of the race riots in Chi- cago in which he states “Before God—this is a white man’s government.” It also prints a quota- tion from the Chicago Tribune of October 26th, 1930, from another speech of the same “gentle- man” Lewis when he said, “So long as I have breath to spend to prevent criminal Negroes trom lording it over Christian white men...” According to the pamphict Mr. Lewis is not the only one, but Michael Igoe, democratic floor leader in the Illinois House of Representatives in speaking on March 29th, 1929, declared, “If you folks want to keep the south side white you €0 out and vote on Election Day.” In other words both republican and democratic parties charge each other with responsiblity for the race riots of 1929 when 22 Negro workers and 16 whites were killed and many hundreds of Negro and white workers were injured. Both the republican and democratic parties are speaking the truth. Both are responsible for the race riots. This was not only true in 1919 but it is still true today. The very same Mr. Thomp- son who is posing as a friend of the Negro to- Gay terrorized Negro workers on the South Side through his police, attacked mass meetings of Negro workers, arresting Negro workers and murdered the Communist Party candidate for Congress, Comrade Lee Mason, a Negro worker ‘and also murdered an unemployed Negro worker, Mitchel Grey. This is not in 1919 but in 1930. {be murderous campaign of the capitalist class against the Negro masses is constantly being carried on. e The Communist Party in Chicago mobilized Negro and white workers in the struggle against terror, discrimination and segregation of the Ne- gro masses and fights for social and political equality for the Negro masses and popularizes the slogan for self-determination of the Negro masses in the South where they are in the ma- jority. In preparetion for the Anti-Lynching Congress in St. Louis on November 15 and 16, anti-lynch- ing conferences are being held. From the Chi- cago conference on November 2, a delegation will be sent to St. Louis. In carrying the struggle for the rights of the Negro masses, in organizing them into the Com- munist Party, the Trade Union Unity League and the American Negro Labor Congress, the Communist Party at the same time clearly rec- ognizes that without carrying on a struggle and campaign against white chauvinism in the ranks of the Party and the working class this campaign of ing the Negro workers cannot be suc- cessful. White chauvinism in many forms prevails as yet in some sections of our Party and definite organizational steps have been made by the Dis- trict Bureau and the District Control Commission to eliminate’ white chauvinism from our ranks, | to carry-on an enlightenment campaign and ex- plain the role of the Party to unify Negro and | White workers in struggle against the ruling class and its henchmen and fakers, among the white | workers and the tools of the white ruling class among the Negro masses. An example of this is Congressman Oscar De Priest, who is doing his part in attempting to divide Negro and white workers by raising the slogan of “Drive out the Foreign Born Workers.” These are the methods the capitalist class is using. Through our every day activity and strug- gle we will be able to win the confidence of the white and Negro masses and put an end to dis- crimination, and segregation of the Negro work- ers and win the right of equality for the Ne- gro masses. Ovr. WHOLESOME | INJUNCTIONS CLUB SANDWICHES ; A DELIGHT BrRuisED HEAD - 4-LA-MODE } World Labor By J. LOUIS ENGDAHL. OVEMBER 11, 1930, will witness a new mob- ilization of world labor in support of the bit- terly persecuted workers here in the United States. On the 43rd Anniversary of the hanging of the Haymarket martyrs in Chicago; on the twelfth anniversary of the armistice that ended in a truce the world imperialist slaughter; the international working class will rally again, for the third time in a decade, in protest against the growing terror of Wall Street imperialism against American labor. Tuesday, November 11, 1930, therefore, be- comes another historic landmark, a day on which the International Labor Defense, the American section of the International Red Aid, calls on American workers to build their resis- tance to the growing attacks of their class enemies. The Executive Committee of the Interna- tional Red Aid, meeting in Berlin, has long had under consideration an international campaign against Dollar Imperialism’s growing attack on its own working class. It has witnessed the mounting toll of lynch murders, the savage sen- tences to as high as 42 years of imprisonment, meted out to the Imperial Valley prisoners; the continued imprisonment of Mooney and Billings; the burning in the electric chair that faces the six workers in Atlanta; the ferocious attacks on the March Sixth, and the October 16th New York Delegations of the Unemployed; the con- tinued persecution of the Centralia prisoners; the attacks, especially by the Fish Committee, of Congress against the foreign-born; the vicious use of the sedition and insurrection (criminal syndicalist) laws, as well as the wholesale ar- rests of workers on every hand. Workers in the United States have frequently shown their international solidarity by organiz- ing mass protests in this country against the persecution of Latin American workers (fruit growers’ strike, Columbia, December, 1923, in which 1,500 workers were slaughtered, Nicaragua, Mexico, Cuba, Haity); demonstrations before the embassies and consulates in this country against European fascist tyrannies; mobilizations on behalf of the workers persecuted in Japan, China, Morocco, Now the workers organized under the ban- ners of the International Red Aid fully realize that the workers in the United States, suffering under the most widespread depression in the whole history of the nation, are fighting against a growing oppression. In this international mobilization, workers the world over will de- mand the immediate liberation of all class war prisoners, the repeal of all laws against foreign- born workers, the repeal of all anti-labor laws (criminal-syndicalism, sedition, insurrection, in- junction, Article 600, New York, etc.); equal rights for Negroes and intensive struggle against lynching; the collection of funds and the build- ing of the International Red Aid in all countries. The definite forms of the campaign urged by the International Red Aid are the organization of factory meetings, mass meetings, protest dem- onstrations, protest resciutions, the organization of workers’ protest delegations to be sent to the embassies and consulates of the United States government in all countries; the carrying on of a vigorous and ceaseless press campaign, in which, all liberal and progressive-minded intel- lectuals and writers will be asked to contribute. Mobilization for the carrying out of this cam- paign in the United States becomes the central task of the mass membership meetings of the International Labor Defense called in all sec- tions of the United States during the week of | Tuesday, November 11, the anniversary of the judicial murder in Chicago of the Haymarket martyrs. November Eleventh becomes the rallying day of the International Labor Defense for the car- tying through of its Eight-Months’ Plan of work, leading up to its Fifth National Convention, June, 1931, which will more firmly knit the de- fense struggles of American labor with the in- ternational working class front against all op- pressors. December will see a special week, December 6-12, bringing the facts about the imprisonment of the Imperial Valley victims before the whole working class. Exactly during the season of the bourgeois Christmas, the I. L. D. will conduct intensive activity for the relief of working class prisoners and their dependents. India, the Philippines, Palestine, and | Mobilizes to Aid American Workers These will be only preliminaries, however, for the quick development of an intensive drive, the first organized in the United States, raising the demand for “Amnesty!” for the release of all class: war prisoners. It is in this tremendous ef- fort that the International Labor Defense plans to root itself in the workshops and factories, building its organization in the industries, that it hopes to develop its educational and propa- ganda activities on a scale not yet ati-=pted, that it expects to find the basis for becoming a wide, mass organization of the American work- ing class.

Mooney and Billings are still their prison cells where they are serving 42 years of boss vengeance for organizing the bitterly exploited agricultural workers of the Imperial Valley, the 8 Imperial Valley prison- ers send greetings to the working class upon the occasion of the Thir- teenth Anniversary of the Russian Revolution which overthrew Tsarist oppression and established the rule of the proletariat over one-sixth of the earth. The Imperial Valley prisoners ex- tend: their proletarian greetings to the toiling masses on the occasion of the 13th Anniversary of the glor- ious Russian revolution. The 13th year of the existence of the First Workers and Peasants Re- public find the toilers of the USSR firmly entrecnched in their colossal task of building Socialism. On the third year of the mighty 5 year plan of industrial, agricultural and social construction—which bids fair to be accomplished in 4 years—the prole- tariat of USSR shatters to fragments the ill-devised predictions of the master class and its servile lackeys— the social-fascists, as well as their twin brothers, the Trotzkyites and the right opportunists—in which they foredoomed the mighty creative ef- forts of the USSR masses to failure. Capitalist System Convulsed in Crisis The 13th anniversary finds the US SR acknowledged by the master class as its only formidable enemy which the sheer force of its stupendous ac- complishments and rapid growth. The 13th anniversary of the USSR finds the entire capitalist system convulsed by a terrific economic crisis and with a number of its weak- est links—Germany, Poland, Rou- mania, etc.—tottering under the se- vere blows of their proletariat and with India, China, and other colonial countries in open revolt against im- perialism. To stave off the deathly effect of the crisis the boss class de- vises various diabolical schemes aimed at transferring the full burden of the economic calamity upon the backs of the toiling masses in each capitalist and colonial country— through the inhuman speeding-up, slashing of wages, longer work day and increase of the already tremen- dous army of jobless. It resorts to brutal fascism to prolong its rule and to smash every resistance of the masses who: are no longer willing to continue the existence of misery and oppression. Bosses Preparing War on U.S.S.R. The 13th anniversary of U.S.S.R.) finds the capitalist countries on the brink of a new world war now being hatched through the feverish arming at staggering expenditures squeezed out from the sweat and blood of the toilerls. It also finds World Iper- ialism, while in preparation to spring at each other's throats, openly com- (ers are in the shi whipe off the face of the earth the hated U.S.S.R., which through its might, strides is building socialism, and stands now as a living inspira- tion to toilers in capitalist and col- onial lands to follow the footsteps of the Russian workers and peasants. In United States the 8,000,000 job- less and their families who are now starving and freezing to death, are answered with “soup-bowl” charity as “relief” to their object misery. Wall Street servants, Hoover and Co., are |now busy, preparing to spring upon the American toilers a vicious “stag- ger” system of half-time employment which will cut the wages of those who work more than half, through further speed-up. The growing protests of workers against all sorts of “mock velief” of unemployment and their demand for rex] unemployment in- surance is answered with murder, lynchings, head-cracking and jailings. Mayor Walker personally conducted @ bloody bath against 1,500 New York unemployed. Answer Workers’ Demands With Terrorism. In Atlanta 6 (te and black work- low of the electric chair for daring to organize black and white workers together. Eight militant workers serve now 42 years in San Quentin and Folsom as a re- ply of the bosses to attempts of Im- perial Valley agricultural workers to organize themselves into a militant rotting away in prisons—symbols of capitalist putridness, The Milwaukee “socialists” true to their fascist role have thrown into their prisons for long terms 15 work- ers who led the unemployed. A number of workers now serve long sentences in Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle and many other cities all over the land for their working-class activities. In this brutal terrorism the master class directs its heaviest attack upon the Communist Party in which it fully recognizes the im- placable enemy of its robber rule and whom the workers recognize as their stalwart leader. Workers! Answer the terror by mighty demands for immediate complete amnesty for all class-war prisoners. Answer the on- slaught upon the Communist Party by joining its ranks in hundreds and thousands to build it into a powerful mass party! Defend U.S.S.R. against Imperialist attacks! Long live the Soviet Union! Long live the Com- munist International, the militant leader of the world proletariat! Long live the Communist Party, the mili- tant leader of the Soviet mass! CARL’ SKLAR FRANK SPECTOR TETSUJI HORIUCHI LAURENCE EMERY DANNY ROXAS EDUARDO HURERA BRAULIO ORASCO OSCAR ERICKSON capitalism for mass production of Not a small assistance in Tammany’s victory in the election, is the host of salary hounds living directly or indircvtly from the city budget. The New York City government has more of- ficials and employes on pay than there are men in the U, S. Army. Added to this, a figure of 131,667 in 1929, there are tens of thousands more living off city money through working on city contracts. All these, and their aunts, uncles and brothers- in-law, are rather interested in keeping up the good work of treasury looting, hence tend to vote Tammany. Since 1921, the salary has just tripled and the number of those holding city jobs doubled. Tammany has the same slogan as Iago, one of Shakespeare's villains:—“Put money in thy purse!” Just recently, however, Tammany was almost wrecked on the rocks of finance. The city put out a bond issue of $75,000,000 in fifty-year bonds bearing four per cent interest. But it found no takers, Finally the Chase National Bank took it, but forced the city to reduce the total to $50,000,000. And a big banking journal, the Financial Chron- icle, says that the Chase Bank deserves “great credit” because, with the whole financial world already upset, a failure of the worlds’ greatest city to market its bonds “might well bring about a situation approaching disaster.” Naturally the situation is only temporarily re- lieved, and soon or late New York and a lot of other inflated city governments are due to stumble on a financial crisis of extremely seri- ous nature. We hope that Communists will be watching such developments and take steps in all localities to raise issues appropriate to the interests of the masses. . . The Fish in Hot Water Well at last the Fish got into hot water. At least into Agua Caliente, which is Mex for “hot water” and 1s the name of one of those gay and festive towns just across the border from Hooverland. It seems that the Fish Committee, “investigat- ing” Communist activities in California, dis- covered, so the Associated Press told us recently, that: “complete army outfits for 20,000 soldiers are in Communist hands in Los Angeles and foreshadow a revolution November 24th,” Gosh! And to think we didn’t know a thing about it here in the center! Those L.A. com- rades are the very devil for keeping things from us. For instance, our Business Manager told us that when a representative of the Daily Worker who is touring the West recently held a meet- ing there for the benefit of the Daily Worker, the comrades opined that, although it was for the benefit of the Daily, they would keep half the proceeds just on general principles. But all that aside, the Fish Committee, after hearing about the Nov. 24th revolution, felt so wrought up that the members of the Committee quietly sneaked away to the Mexican border, to “investigate” the red light district of Agua Cal- iente. No doubt this, too, was charged up to the United States Congress appropriation for gay cabelleros to “investigate” equally gay senoritas. Maybe they were looking for “plots.” And maybe they were just going on the old theory that “A change of pasture makes fat cattle.” At least if there’s anything that’s nearer cattle than their outfit, we would have to guess hard to figure out just what. . Har! Har! Chihuahua They're Mexican cops. But cops are cops, and so we have to tell you the joke. It seems that in the city of Chihuahua (pro- nounced “She-wah-wah”) which is capital of the state of that name in Dwight Morrow's colony called Mexico, the cops went on strike be- cause they didn’t get their salary. Which is tough, but merely causes us hilarious laughter. Naturally, being on strike, they refused to obey orders of what passes for a Mulrooney or an Alcock in Chihuahua, and instead marched around to where the governor hangs out Pr tell him their troubles. The governor, after the fashion of Jimmy Walker with Unemployed: Delegations, accused these cops of indiscipline and called out troops. The troops promptly rounded up every cop and locked them up in their own penitentiary where they remain, and, as the paper says, with the governor's parting shot that they should “take their time in deciding what to do next.” oxen 8 A Weak Hawser For A Long Pull We notice in the papers that Gandhi, the fake “nationalist” of India, whose stock seems to have fallen due to beer raids or Soviet dump- ing, or sumpin, shaves his head. But not all of it. It seems that he, like the woodman who really spared that tree, spares just thirteen hairs at the top of his bean. The theory of these thirteen hairs,is that he expects to be hoisted to heaven by them when he dies. Well—may he soon be' hoisted! But if the job 4s to be done right so he won't come back, he ought to have a strongex tow-line. ‘Bud! air All Round Filthy Between his routine performances of falling off a horse, the Prince of Wales the other day made a speech to a “Golfing Society.” We don't expect workers to be much het up over golfing societies nor princes. But: just to show you what a British prince can do with the King’s English, we call attention to his remark: “I am a filthy golfer and a filthy speaker.” And—we might add—well, a number of things. * * Roosevelt's Five Year Plan You may not know anything about it, but Governor Roosevelt, who put Tuttle in King Tut's place, has a five year plan all his own. Dr. Frederick W. Parsons, Commissioner of the N. Y. State Department of Mental Hygiene told about it the other day. This is what he sald: Governor Roosevelt has expressed the belief that by 1935, we should have a bed for every insane, feeble-minded and epileptic.” Doubtless with the perspective in view that the triumphant democrats will do no more for the unemployed than the Hoover republicans, the Dock, says the newspapers: “. + « predicted an increase of 10,000 in the Population of the state hospitals for the insane in the next five years.” , Doctor Parsons’ remarks show the ability of crazy people, mostly workers driven to insanity by the worries and miseries of life under capitalist class rule,
