The first article was published yesterday) [por cover of fake struggle-phrases, Garvey- ism deliberately allies itself with the imperial- ist oppressors and emies of the Negro masses Garveyism peddies all the illusions created by the master olass to befuddle the oppressed Ne- gro and white masses. It spreads not only ¢the Mlusion of escape from oppression through cap- italtsm, but of supernatural intervention, of childish dependence upon the white bosses’ god, of submission to the “will” of that god, thus helping the imperialists to divert the discontent of the masses into reformist movements with foolish promises of solution by the simple ex- pedient of excha white capitalist exploiters for black capitalist exploiters, white gods for black godss, Supports Bosses’ Isolation of Negro Masses. Capitalism fosters the isolation of the Negro masses in order to effect their greater exploita- tion. Garveyism embraces whole-heartedly this enemy policy, deliberately playing into the hands of the enemies of white and Negro workers who seek to split the working-class in order to weaken its resistance—the imperialist enemies who keep the Negro masses at the very bottom of capitalist society by branding them as “in- feriors,” as “not fit to associate with white men” on the job or socially. Marcus Garvey in the Negro World of September 6, shamelessly sup- ports this doctrine: “We believe that the white race should protect itself against racial contamination,” says this treacherous misleader and faker, adding an open appeal to the Ku Klux Klan, the Caucasian Crusaders, the American Fascisti, and other extra-legal instruments of the boss-class to en- force this doctrine of Negro inferiority, of Ne- gro isolation as a pariah-class of “untouchables.” “We are expecting the cooperation and sup- port of liberal White America in the promulga- tion of the ideal of racial purity.” Garveyism Has No Solution For United States | Negroes. Garveyism has no solution for the pressing problems of the 12 to 14 millions of Negroes | whose unrequited toil transformed the South from a wilderness. The program of Garveyism for these masses is abject surrender of their rights and emigration to an Africa groaning un- der the oppression of another group of imperi- alists. Says Garvey in the Negro World of No- vember 16, 1930: “The Uniersval Negro Improvement Associa- tion is planning a sane and proper system of emigration by which Negroes from America, ‘West Indies and Central America can emigrate to black Africa, where black men administer the affairs of government in its three chief executive branches.” There are only two so-called “independent” nations in Africa today. Liberia and Abyssinia. And the black government of Liberia is as much a puppet of United States imperialism as is the black government of Haiti. Abyssinia is a pup- pet of United States, French, British and Italian imperialisms. It retains its semblance of in- dependence merely because of the conflicting in- terests of these imperialisms, none of which is ready to surrender it wholly to any of the others. Garvey’s Fake Self-Determination “Demand” Garveyism, it will be noted, has no demands for the Negro masses of the United States, the West Indies and Central America. Its fake fight for Negro liberation is confined to a long dis- tance demand, most of the time a cringing re- quest to the imperialists “League of Nations,” for self-determination for the African masses. Yet it is in the United States that Garveyism Was born. And it is in the United States, West Indies and Central America that it today has whatever forces are left if after the many wide- Spread defections it has suffered as a result of the natural dissatisfaction of the masses arising out cf the failure of Garveyism to carry on any struggle for the masses in these places. The glamour of the sham struggle for Africa could serve the Garvey misleaders only for a time. Garveyism makes no fight on the lynching ter- ror of the bosses, but with the National Associa- | tion for the Advancement of Colored People, spreads the illusion that the bosses will them- selves stop their own lynching terror, will pun- ish themselves for lynching Negroes. The Negro | World of May 10, 1930, childishly calls upon President Hoover, ally of the Ku Klux Klan and the Southern lily-whites, chief of the treacher- ous republican party, which has consistently be- trayed the struggles of the Negro masses, to send an army of Negro workers into the South to shoot down his fellow imperialists: Looks to Oppressors to Stop Oppression. “Can America look the civilized world in the face, in view of this apathy regarding the crimes done in the Southland? Is justice dead? Is honor lost?... Why not, Mr. President, marshall and despatch a black army down south?... Why not try it, Mr. President?” Was ever more ludicrous example of the petty bourgeosie’s efforts to camouflage the role of im- perialism? Of utter confusion? Of treacherous betrayal of the struggle of the Negro masses? Garveyism does not recognize the right of the Negro majorities in the “Black Belt” of the southern states to have their own form of gov- | ernment and to control that government and the - Africa. white minorities in its territory, deciding its relations with other governments and specifically with the bourgeois United States government on the question of separation, if the Negro masses so desire. The Communist Party demands this right of self-determination for the Negro mas- ses. And the Communist demands are as shock- ing to Garveyism as to the white ruling class of the South whose wealth and “position” are based upon the frightful oppression and bare-faced robbery of the Negro masses. Wants West Indians to Abandon Homeland. The population of the West Indies are over- whelmingly Negro. Yet here again Garveyism has no solution for these Negroes except the sur- render of their homeland and emigration to In Central America the population is predominantly Indian and Negro, but here again Garveyism calls for surrender and retreat. With a number of strong branches in the West Indies, with Garvey himself and his pocket international offices in Jamaica, Garveyism yet does not raise the question of a federated West Indies, of the right of self-determination for the West Indian masses. On the contrary, Garveyism defends the status quo, upholds imperialism! In his Jamaica paper, The Blackman, Marcus Garvey gives to the Jam- aica masses the treacherous and slavish advice that, in their struggle against imperialism op- pression, they must do nothing that would of- fend their oppressors. The oppressed colonial masses, Garvey says, “would not dare to. accept and foster something that was tabooded by the mother country.” This is the same as telling the Negro masses that they dare not struggle against imperialisst oppression. For, of course, such struggles are tabooded by the “mothér country.” And significantly, to Marcus Garvey the oppressing imperialism which murders and enslaves the Negro masses is the “mother coun- try.” Negro workers! Only by a revolutionary strug- gle against imperialism and the imperialist op- pressors can real Negro liberation be achieved. Only the Communist Party prosecutes the strug- gle for the overthrow of imperialism, for real liberation for the oppressed masses of all races. The Communist Party is the party equally of the Negro and white masses, the party of all oppressed classes. Join. the Communist Party! Support its struggle against the capitalist bos- ses! Fight lynching! Demand the right of self- determination for the Negro masses of Africa, of the United States, of the West Indies, etc.! Sharp Turn in Anthracite Crisis By F. BORICH Secretary of the M.O.S.W.LU. crisis in the Anthracite region did not ex- | press itself so sharply in the past year as it did tn the Bituminous field. The capitalists and their agents of the fascist U. ing of this fact particularly at the time of the 5% year slave agreement was signed. At that tume the miners were told that “prosperity” in the Anthracite was possible because the bosses Were “willing” to cooperate with and to accept the terms of labor.” However the boasting of the bosses and their agents is not effective any longer. Pputable facts of the sharpening crisis, admitted even by the bosses themselves, speaks so loud that any word of boasting is immediately drowned. ‘The crisis in the Anthracite is catch- ing up with and even surpassing the profound crisis of the Bituminous flel¢. This is clearly shown by the figures recentiy published by the United States Buro of Mines. Those figures by Bo means exaggerate the crisis in the Anthracite. The production of the Anthracite region for the month of Aug. in each of the 5 years—1926 —1930, according to the Buro of Mines, on an average was as follows; In 1926—7,036,455 tons; im 1927—6,674,630 tons; in 1928—6,279,005 tons; 1929—5,360,130 tons and in 1930-—4,821,790 tons. ‘The continual drop in the production in the 5 years ts self-evident. It will be noticed that the drop is about % a million tons a year. But the drop since last Aug. has taken a very sharp tan. The production in Sept. 1930, was only 3,899,405 tons or almost 1,000,009 tons less than jn Aug. of the same year. The drop is a tingie month of 1930 is almost as big as in any of two of the five years combined. ‘The drop in Oct. is still more profound. In a singis week ending Oct. 18th, the production @ropped an additional 603,000 tons in comparison with the previous week-end, Oct. 11th. Here ‘the drop is greater in one week than previously dn one year. ‘The average daily production in the week of Oct. 18th, 1929 was 316,000 tons, while in 1930 in the same week it was 217,000 tons. Almost 190,000 tons daily decrease, ‘Those figures, taken from the Buro of Mines Yeports, show the very decision and sharp turn of the deepening crisis in the Anthracite. As a result unemployment is increasing immensely. xen several months ago, the great majority of the mines were working part time. In Aug., before the sharp drop in productions employ- Ment had decreased 12.5 per cent, or approxi- .\W.A. were boast- | The undis- | mately 20,000 miners were thrown into the army of unemployed. Since the sharp drop in produc- tion, in Sept. and Oct. unemployment is increas- ing and part time work is becoming greater. Meanwhile due to the 5% year slave agreement the conditions of the workers have worsened. The 5% year agreement is an attempted chain to tie the Anthracite miners to the chariot of the coal operators. The miners realize this and are therefore rebelling against it. Although the agreement strictly “outlaws” strikes, and in spite of the bitter opposition of the fascist leadership to strikes, several strikes, one of these involving 16,000 miners, took place since the agreement was signed. There is a mass opposition to the check off system. This in spite of the fact that the check off for years was one of the most pressing de- mands by the miners in the Anthracite. The operators were bitterly opposed to it. But since the U.M.W.A. has been completely transformed into a fascist company union, the operators to- gether with the fascist leadership of. the U.M. W.A., have forced the check off upon the miners. This was necessary due to the fact that the great majority of the miners refused to pay dues to the company union. The check off has forced all of the miners to become members of the U.M.W.A. and to pay dues to it. This mass opposition to the check off is being utilized by the corrupt local officials. Previously the local officials were collecting dues directly from the miners without any one controlling them. As.a result the local officials were making their living on widespread graft, and all of them were well dressed, lived in beautiful homes and rode in expensive automobiles. Now the situa- tion has changed. ‘The district officials are col- lecting dues directly through the eompany offices. Then the local share is returned to the local officials. But in most cases the district officials are getting the local share on account of back dues. Thus the local officials are deprived of their fat income by the district and national fascist leadership who are also wanting fat in- comes. Hence the corrupt local leadership is now utilizing the dissatisfaction of the miners in an attempt to abolish the check off and to regain its lost privileges. Hence again fake rump con- ventions. All of this is tending to mislead and further enslave the Anthracite miners. This situation gives the Mine, Oil and Smelter Workers’ Industrial Union an excellent oppor- tunity to unmask the national, district. and local leadership of the company union (U.M.W.A.). It gives us a golden opportunity to gain the con- fidence and leadership of the Anthracite miners, \ & | ing conditions, lay offs, wage cuts. | there is a strike in the O'Gara No. 3 mine in | Harrisburg against additional layoffs. For a Real Strike in Illinois 'HE miners of Illinois are mobilizing their forces and fighting. A number of strikes have broken out in many parts of the state against worsen- At present In Old Ben No. 8 and No. 14 and in Orient No. 2 miners fight against speed up by putting the mine into “slow motion.” These are the first steps in the struggle of the miners to maintain their living conditionss. New Traitors. The miners in years of struggle have learned the bitter true lesson that Lewis, Fishwick, Howatt, Farrington, etc., are their worse enemies and they are losing all faith in thsi bunch of traitors; so new traitors arise to try to fool the miners. Such are Murray and “Boxcar” Jen- kins, petty fakers, ex-officials of the U.M.W.A., utilizing the discontent and readiness of the miners to struggle and attempt to lead them into submission to the bosses, One of the latest maneuvers of these new fakers is the issuance of a so-called “strike call” for November 15. They are calling only on miners in mechanized mines to strike; telling the miners in hand loading mines to stay at work and support the strike by giving as high as two-thirds of their- wages. This is only a gesture by the fakers under the pressure of the rank and file miners and not a preparation for a strike. Murray and Jenkins have no inten- tion of leading the miners in struggle. This | method of calling a strike is simply playing into the hands of the bosses. Union for All. What the miners want is a strike to embrace both the mechanizeqand hand loading mines. These fakers are calling the strike on the issue of taking out the machines. This is a ridiculous issue. The fight must be concentrated against the coal operatorss and their tools in the United Mine Workers of America. When machinery is introduced in the mines, the miners must strug- gle, under the leadership of their own mine committee, for shortened working hours at a full week wages; and against the speed up of the machine by instituting regular rest periods. Mine Committees! The Mine, Oil and Smelter Workers Industrial Union calls on all miners to form their mine committees, unite every miner who is ready to fight, and strike against wage cuts and speed up, pay for all dead work, 15 minutes rest period in every hour on all machines, a man for each job, a minimum wage of $35 a week, for the six hour day and five day week and for workers unemployment insurance. The miners should build their own organs of struggle, and affiliate with the M.O.S.W.LU., bui'd their own unem- ployed councils, and carry on their own fight. Workers! Join the Party of Your Class!

Mass Unemployment in Buffalo, The economic crisis that grips the whole of the United States effects the state of New York and Buffalo just as well as any other city or state in the Union. According to the Industrial Bulletin of the State Labor Department, in the month of Aug- ust, 1929, 59,421 workers were employed by the manufacturing establishments while in the same month of 1930 only 47,665 workers were working. This is a difference of 11,756. If we take into consideration the usual juggling with figures, especially if it is a question of the number of unemployed workers, of the bourgeois statisti- cians, if we add to this number the Marine workers who became unemployed due to the stop- page of shipping on the lakes, if we add, to all this the number of unemployed workers from the commercial establishments and those who were engaged during the summer months on farms and drifted back to the city, then we get the actual number of unemployed in the city of Buffalo, which is not less than 50,000. Buffalo is mainly a city depending on the automobile, steel and iron industries. These industries were hit the hardest in the crisis. Communist Party Leads Jobless. Like everywhere else in the United States, only the Communist Party is organizing and leading the thousands of unemployed workers to give immediate unemployment relief. So in the city of Buffalo, during the Election Campaign, the Communist Party put a specific emphasis upon the mobilization and organization of the unemployed workers. operation of the T.U.U.L., mobilizing the workers for an unemployment demonstration on the 25th of October, and planned to stage a monster demonstration for the Communist candidate for Governor, Comrade William Z, Foster, for the next day. Police Force Is Mobilized. The demonstration was advertised to take place at 6 o'clock but the police force of the city oc- cupied the whole territory a full hour ahead of time. One hundred fifty cops, 35 on horse, 50 motorcycle cops, and hundreds of plain clothes- i men, were all mobilized and the whole territory looked like as it was in a state of siege. The workers who came to the demonstration in two's and three’s were chased away for blocks. The smallest gatherings were immediately broken The Party with the co- | up and when 6 o'clock, the leaders of the dem- onstration wanted to speak, aftér they pro- nounced a few words were jumped upon and arrested. “Victory” For the Ruling Class. ‘The mass mobilization of all the police and detective force of the city of Buffalo to crush the unemployed demonstration is an unmistak- sable sign of the fear on the part of the ruling class of this city, of the growing militancy of the workers of Buffalo, of the growing influence of the Communist Party, and of the tremendous revolutionary possibilities that might be de- veloped through organization and in the present favorable, objective situation. The fact of the matter of the unemployment demonstration was made impossible only through this 100 per cent mobilization shows that if the unemployed work- ers of Buffalo will organize themselves and stage great demonstrations in the different parts of the city at the same time and march from the different parts towards the central concentration point the whole police force of the city will be insufficient and incapable to deal with this tre- mendous army. After the “victory” of the police, they were not satisfied with the breaking up of the demonstration but proceeded to raid the Headquarters of the Communist Party. The Arrested Charged With Drunkeness. The fact that the authorities, after consulting, placed among other charges, the charge of being drunk, against those being arrested. The fact that Mayor Roesch, was obliged to make a pub- lic statement to the effect that the raid was made and the arrests took place not because the arrested are Communists, but because they were disorderly, shows the desire of the bosses to minimize the importance of the raid and to push aside its political contents. They were successful to such a degree in this manoeuver that even some of the comrades expressed the opinion | “that the whole case is a trifle matter and we should try to make one postponement after an- | other in order to make the judge tired of the case, so that he shall throw out the case.” This is an absolutely wrong attitude to take and the Party must realize the full political significance of the raid and endeavor to convince not only the Party members but also the un- employed and exploited workers of Buffalo, that this raid was engaged in against the Party not because those in the hall were disorderly but be- cause the Communists in Buffalo are the only ones who are leading the unemployed workers for Unemployment Insurance, higher wages, shorter hours, for full social, political and econ- omic equality for the Negroes. Therefore it is wrong to follow the policy of postponing the case and try to make out of it a small technical case. ‘Socialist’ Milwaukee and March 6 By ROBERT JULIEN KENTON ILWAUKEE has a socialist mayor. It has had one for sixteen consecutive years. Mil- waukee also has a police department. Its func- tion is to preserve “law and order.” On March 6th the unemployed, under the leadership of the Communist Party, marched through the streets of Milwaukee demonstrating against unemploy- ment. The police, in an endeavor to preserve capitalist “law and order” and make the world safe for the masters turned the demonstration into a riot, charged into the crowd of workers, bloodily beating.up the unemployed. All this | on the excuse of protecting a lone individual who | had gotten up on a box to make a speech in favor of the socialist mayor Hoan. Not satisfied with rioting against the workers they broke into Communist Party headquarters—and discovered a number of Pioneers and an old couple watch- ing a game of checkers. This peaceful scene did not prevent them from wrecking the place. At the same time the police arrested fifty-one workers, In Milwaukee, as in New York, the job of casting all blame on the Communists began. Mayor Hoan, as quoted by the socialist Mil- waukee leader ‘said “it is obvious that a few Communists have attempted to stir up trouble with the police that would result in arrests.” At the same time, the socialists in the East realizing the inadequacy of this attempt to de- celve the workers resorted toe lying stratexem / in. an attempt to remove from themselves all blame for the clubbing of the workers. They denounced the Communists for its “lies” about | the March ‘6th demonstration. The socialist Uew York New Leader in its March 15th issue declared that “the police department is not under the jurisdiction of the socialist mayor.” Wherever this matter was discussed the same answer was:“we:are not to blame” and “it is a damnable lie on the part of the Communists.” A letter was sent to the Milwaukee Journal requesting information as to who controlled the police department. Their reply stated that the chief of police was appointed by the police and fire commissioners who were themselves appoint- ed by the mayor. It was only another socialist lie. But this was not all. Of the workers arrested, twenty-four were charged with rioting: they were sentenced to from one month to six months. Fifteen others were charged with vagrancy. The trial of the first three resulted in the cases be- ing thrown out of court, The police, thereupon requested that the vagrancy charges be with- drawn and charges of rioting be substituted. (Milwaukee Leader, March 11, 1930, page 1, col. 1.) The judge obligingly consented. All this by a police department controlled by a socialist mayor! No wonder they tried to disclaim all responsibility. In Milwaukee, as in Berlin and elsewhere, the Socialists do the dirty work of their capitalist masters. | Before By JORGE eee British Manners ‘The comment on the American elections given by the British papers is downright funny. It is not, of course, in the nature of things that the staid London Times deliberately sought to be arhusing. That would be as unthinkable as Ramsay MacDonald, the “labor” premier, ap pearing before the King without silk kflees breeches and high silk hat (hope we haven't got the court dress balled up!). But anyhow, the London Times wanted, evl« dently, to call Hoover a darn fool. But took the following round-about way of saying it: “It would be a rough but not an unfair description of President Hoover's powers of mind, to say he can calculate wave lengths, but cannot see color, that he can understand vibrae tions, but cannot hear tone. Luck, of course, has been cruelly against him, but so have been and will be his own temperament and special attributes.” What? Anarchists and Highbrows? Just when we were on point of saying some- thing cruel about the New Republic or the Rev. Muste, or even Roger Baldwin, for their limit- less crust in telling workers that they must be pacifists and not hurt the poor capitalists nor ever dare to slap a cop in spite of all provoca~ tion, we picked up the comparatively unknown paper (the Fish Committee would call it a “secret” publication), gotten out by the real, genuine, sure-enough anarchists. Those fellows who believe in the “propaganda of the deed” (very rarely have nerve enough to do such propaganda, except in such cases as when they shot two Communist miners in Penn- sylvania last August). We picked this little paper up, which breathes fire and blood and fertilizer, and discovered, yes, sir; we discovered that a testimonial dinner to Alexander Berkman, the chap who at least tried to shoot a capitalist, Mr. Frick, is to be attended by none other than the most sanctified upholders of pacifist /‘ means (against bosses—not workers). Among them are two editors of the New Re- public, Lovett and Lindeman. Then we have the old skinflint social fascist, Rev. Muste, who tells the Danville strikers to not touch a hair of the bosses’ heads while he is memorializing an anarchist who shot a boss with malice afore- thought and (unluckily) a mere 22 revolver, Then we have Saposs and Golden of Brookwood, and unser teierer und beliebter Morris Hillquit, besides the sweet little butterfly of imaginary civil liberties, Roger Baldwin. Well! Can these deceitful cusses be using this means to make up, in a cheap and unsatis- factory way, for condemning the Gastonia vic- tims? Or, whist! Maybe they’re assisting them anarchists to make bombs according to old Johan Most’s “anarchist cook-book.” But, shucks, after all, maybe they're only gete ting together to assure each other that the Com- munists are wretched and impertinent fellows who have no respect for gentlemen who “prefer bonds.” * Baby Crocodiles (Imported) From the original “Crocodile” published in that mystic village called Moscow, we present a word picture as follows, of cartoons that appeared as originals in colors which we are unable to re- produce: 1. A very lazy-looking individual, leaning back in his chair, with legs crossed, one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette, is gazing philosophically at a clock which is ticking away on the wall before him. The caption says he is an opportunist and quotes him as saying to the clock: “You're a lucky devil. You can change your position every minute and not even be accused of deviations.” 2. Three men are sitting about a table. From appearances, they seem most melancholy. “They brood sadly over the days gone by when they were mighty warriors,” is the sense of a couple of lines from the famous Russian poet, Pushkin, underneath the cartoons. And if we look at their faces, we see a marked resemblance, some- how, to the faces of Rykov, Tomsky and Bu- charin. 3. In a factory two workers are talking as they work at a machine. In the background with his chin in the air is a podgy person ambl- ing about with hands behind his back. “Who's that,” asks one worker, “a new engineer!” The other replies: “No, he’s the old engineer and has been here 20 years, but just thought about inspecting our department.” O, Justice! From the columns of the company-unionized I.L.G.W.’s paper, that goes under the name of “Justice,” we extract this tidbit from the article by Dr. B. Hoffman who, being a “doctor” and not a worker, naturally was elected to attend the A. F. of L. Convention as a union delegate. In the middle of his article, Dock Hoffman gets this off: “TI like to hear President Green speak. He has a sweet, pleasant voice, and he speaks with heart. In the debate over unemployment insurance, hé spoke very warmly, feelingly and sincerely.” Naturally, the Doctor was so seduced by Green's voice that he forgot. to notice that Green opposed Unemployment Insurance, or rather having noticed it, the Dock was too overcome by Green's eloquence to raise a row. But then he explains all the uselessness of doing anything there in the line of speaking. He says: “Whether talking does any good there, is, of course, another story.” ee fetes After the little shindig in the session at Gene eva of the “Preparatory Disarmament Commis- sion,” wherein the chairman beggeed everybody to stop talking about disarmament, and whercin also the Soviet Delegation gave the League of Nations diplomats one of the neatest lickings we have seen in a blue moon, we think the im- perialist diplomats ought to confess that they are not only bum diplomats, but really haven't got good sense, Fight against fingerprinting, registration, deportation bills; demand asylum for the working class political refugees; elect dele- gates to the National Conference for the Protection of Foreign Born, Nov. 30th, Dec.
