Not only do the Negroes suffer-more from unemployment, being the first to be fired and the last to be hired, not only are they givén the most dif- ficult and disagreeable tasks at the lowest wages, not only-are they segregated and jim- crowed, disfranchised and denied every or- dinary ‘right of human beings, but on top of all this shameful oppression which stinks of the whole system of slavery, they are sub- mitted to a system of lynch law and violence unprecedented in the history of any nation or any race. It is a weekly occurrence in this country for a Negro worker to be seized, usually from the hands of complaisant officers of the law who have previously disarmed him, by a murderous mob’ which tears his body to pieces and burns the remains. : Investigate This. If the Fish Committee wants to know why the Negroes are more and more turning to Communism, let.them investigate especially what is going on in the constituency of Mr. Bachman of West Virginia, in the consti- tuency of Mr. Eslick of Tennessee, in the constituency of Mr. Hall of Mississippi. While the’supporters of Messrs. Bachman, Eslick and Hall are lynching the disfran- chised Negroes, the Communists are leading the fight for complete equality and self- determination for the Negroes. While United States senators, such as Blease, are declar- ing “to hell with the Constitution” if it is a barrier to lynching a Negro, the Commu- nists are organizing defense corps of white and black workers to fight against all lynch- ing mobs. | This is why the Negroes no longer trust the representatives of American capitalism, and why the'Communist Party influence is growing among the Negro masses. The oppression of Negroes, like that of the entire working class’ is carried through by a common agreement of republican, dem- ocratic and socialist parties alike. The re- publican.and democratic parties, in office and out of office, have uniformly made scraps of paper of the 14th and 15th amendments to the constitution. The socialist party, hungry for office, rushes to assuré its republican and demo- cratic elder brothers ‘that they will do the same if they only get the chance. Heywood Broun, who has’ recently achieved promi- nence as a leader of the socialist party, de- clared April 26, 1930: “If I were a candidate for high executive office, or judicial office, I would say, even without being cornered, that I would nét now sanction the efforts to enforce the 14th and 15th amendments to the constitutionsof the United States.” All this policy is designed to destroy the unity . of the working class, and extract special super profits out of the labor of the workers. ' The Rereign Born, Too. New blows against the workers are being prepared in the measures endorsed by the spokesmen of the Fish Committee, which are now before« Congress, for registration and finger printing of foreign born workers and the adoption of more drastic deporta- tion laws and limitation of immigration. This special persecution of the foreign born workers, which is accompanied by mass dismissals of foreign born from the factories and from munftipal employment, by dis- crimination against the foreign born in, un- employment relief and so on, is all a paft of the capitalist strategy to divide the workers into an- tagonistic groups, setting one against the other and turning the attention of both away from their real enemy, the capitalist exploiters. The Communists “are leading and organizing: the _ fight of the masses against these special persecutions and discriminations.. v On the Farms, As Well. It is net only inthe cities that the masses are feeling the destructive blows of the crisis of cdpital- ism. Also on the farms we witness hunger, poverty, wholesale bankruptcies, dispossession of hundreds of thousands of farmers, the most tremendous overpro- duction of wealth and the consequent ruin and starva- tion of those who produced it—the millions of starv- ing farmers. There is no escape for the unemployed in the cities to go to the land, because from the Jand there is streaming into the cities new millions of impoverished farmers to join the starving armies of the unemployed. Every farming community today is witnessing sher- iff sales in which impoverished farmers are being dis- possessed gof their last few remaining bits of private property. Upon the farm, also, the rich are growing richer and the poor are sinking into. starvation. The fake relief measures of the Hoover adminis- tration have already been exposed as nothing but in- struments for the further enrichment of the banks, railroads,’ and local exploiters, Only the Communist Party proposes and fights for real relief measures fof the impoverished farmers: the suspension of all dispossessions, securing of the free use’ of the land to the farmer who tills it, the fur- nishing of material relief to the poorest farmers, in- stead of additional profits te the rich farmers and ‘exploiters—this is the nature of Communist activities among the farmers of the U. S, These are the causes for the spread of Communism in the agricultural com- munities of this country. The A. F, L.—Strike-Breaking Instrument. In the industries, the workers are learning by bitter experience: the true meaning of the notorious Hoover- Green agreement for no strikes and ho wage cuts. The “no strike” part of this contract was carried out so completely that the A. F. L. has become the general strike-breaking instrument of the capitalist class, angst’ completely putting out of business the old strike-breaking institutions of Wm. J. Burns, Flynn, Farley, Feltz-Baldwin, ete. But ‘the-‘no-wage-cut” part of the agreement ‘has been generally and cynically disregarded by every capitalist inthe United States, Even the doctored statistics of the Bureau of Labor has to record a re- duction of. wages in the year 1930 alone of more than $2,000,000,000. This is accompanied by a speed-up in the factories which has gone far beyond the limits of human endurance, The program of the capitalist class was expressed if the November Bulletin of the Ne >} ©y Teo" &) New York as follows: comb, subjecting 4 . & | | Exposes War Plans of Imperialists Against the Soviet Union; Calls on Workers to Rally for Soviet Defense Cites Bosses’ Wage Cutting Drive and Failure to Relieve Suffering of Unemployed; Calls on Workers to Organize and Fight DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, SATURDAY, D"CEMBER 6, 1920 Page Five every ‘process to a rigld inspection with a view to finding ways and means of improving methods, elim- inating ‘unecessary man power and paring costs to the irreducible minimum.” What this means is graphically ‘lustrated by the reports in the U. S. Monthly Labor Review which reg- istered on the basis of a very limited survey, wage cuts to the number of 68 in July, 63 in August, 117 in September, 136 in October. Wage cuts have taken place in such central in- dustrial establishments as Bethlehem Steel, General Motors, Anaconda Copper, Union Pacific Ry., Phila~ delphia Shoe, Calumet Copper, etc., and in the entire coal and textile industries, as well as in every other } industry in the country. Where these wage cuts have not been put into effect openly,as reductions in the scale, they have been put into effect in a covered manner by changes in piece rates, discharging of old workers and hiring of new workers under lower categories, replacing older workers by youth, abolition of day work and the in- troduction of piece work, etc. In many industries this wage cutting has amounted to as much as 50 per cent and in some industries there have ‘been even as many as four and five successive wage cuts, during the year 1930. In the South, which is so heavily represented in this Committee, and where wages even before the crisis wre below the starvation level, and where the starva- tion disease, pellagra; is a wide-spread phenomenon among the workers, wage cuts have been even more deep-going than in the North. y Communism Is Growing ‘The: reason why Communist activities are growing in the North and in the South among the workers in the shops is because the Communist Party and the revolutionary trade unions are the only forces leading and. organizing the struggle against wage cuts and against the inhuman speed-up. The unemployed workers in the United States are more and more turning toward the Communist Party because they find everybody else, and especially the government and its departments, persistenly lying about the extent of their problem; persistently hold- ing out false promises of relief that never materializes, filling the newspapers with fake publicity about relief measures that never reach the unemployed, constantly prophesying the “return of_prosperity within 60 days” while the crisis continues to deepen and new hundreds of thousands of workers are thrown on the street every month. All “responsible” people denied the existence of mass ‘ unemployment until the Communist Party on March 6 led a million and a quarter unemployed workers onto the streets and forced the entire country to recognize the existence of this problem. The only response of the government for the solution of this problem was the appointment of the Fish Committee to investigate the activities of the Communists. The only relief offered by the rulers of America to the unemployed masses is the bread line and the shameful crumbs of charity. Only the Communist Party has consistently put forward and fought for the adoption of a compre- hensive system of unemployment insurance. financed out of the tremendous reserves of wealth mionopolized by the capitalists While the rulers of this country-spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year upon war expenditures, only the Communist Party demands the use of these funds fop the relief of the starving masses. While the government and all of its institutions are throwing the unemployed workers and their fam- ilies out of their homes, only the Communist Party is leading a determined fight against these evictions. While the federal, state and municipal governments are wallowing in graft, only the Communist Party is leading a determined fight that government funds shall be taken out of the hands of the grafters and used for the immediate relief of the unemployed. While the only gestures being made by the govern- ment are in the nature of appropriations for public construction which only to an infinitesimal degree re- places the tremendous slump that has occurred in the building industry, and which are mainly new pork- barrels for the grafters, the Communist Party organ- izes the masses to fight for the Workers Unemploy- ment Insurance Eill. This is the nature of the Communist activities among the unemployed, and the tremendous response of the unemployed to this program is the reason why the Fish Committee is worried about Communist activities in the United States. Why the Bosses “Investigate” No doubt the Fish Committee is very anxious about the loss of influence of the American Federation of Labor over the workers. This is one of the principle reasons why the government is investigating the ac- tivity of the Communists and why it is doing every- thing it can to bolster up the waning power of the American Federation of Labor. The reason why the Communists are able to win the workers away from the corrupt leaders of the American Federation of Labor is because these leaders prevent strike movements against wage cuts and’speed up, and help the employers to put their measures into effect. The American Federation of Labor leaders break strikes when they occur in Spite of their leader- ship. The leadership of the American Federation of Labor uses the capitalist court injunction weapon againgt the revolutionary unions. The American Fed- eration of Labor leadership fights against unemploy- ment insurance. The American Federation of Labor Jeadership stipports and practices the policy of Jim- Crowism against the Negroes. The American Federa- tion leadership is directly connected with the whole machinery of war preparations and is a leader in the crusade for world capitalist war egainst the Soviet Union, the only country ruled by the working class. The American Federation of Labor leadership is organically connected with and is an instrument in the hands of the capitalist class and its republican and democratic parties, while the socialist party is a junior partner in the same game. The American Fed- eration of Labor leadership is at the same moment fused with the organized underworld, the gangsters and racketeers, which are a part of the capitalist sys- tem of municipal government and connected through — the bootlegging business not only with the police, the corrupt political machines of municipality and state, but also with the highest circles of American society, who must have profit out of bootlegging, as well as out of the production of the factories, The American Federation of Labor is not an instru- ment in the hands of the workers to defend their in- terests, but on the contrary is an instrument in the hands of the capitalist class to beat down all efforts of the workers to improve their conditions and protect themselves from wage cuts, ete, ‘The Communist Party supports and leads in the for- mation of real fighting trade union organizations of the workers in the Trade Union Unity League, The Bosses Are Preparing War The tremendous crisis of capitalism has brought with it not only unemployment, wage cuts, speed-up, “Under pressure of reduced volume of business and | starvation and misery for the masses, but also brought lower prices, business men have been going over their | US face to face with a new world war. In spite of all the fake Kellogg peace pacts, djs- armament conferences, etc. the imperialist govern- ments, especially the United States and Great Britain, are arming themselves to the tecth a~-'»st one an- other, preparing for a new world slaughter. Almost three-fourths of the government income in the United States is spent for war purposes. The mili- tary and naval budgets of the principal imperialist powers are higher than they have ever been in peace time in all history, and are constantly increasing. The capitalists know no way out of their crisis except through bloody war, by which they hope to snatch from one another the markets of the world As § ator Reed of Pennsylvania said the other day—curi- ously enough for once speaking a profound truth— the only thing that is delaying, a new imperialist war is the fear of Bolshevism on the part of the ruling | classes. } It is this common fear of Bolshevism, that is draw- ing together all of the*arltagonistic imperialist powers, including the United States, into joint preparations for war against the Soviet Union. The workers of the United States do not want war. They realize more and more that all, the capitalist parties are dragging them towards war at a dizzy speed. Only the Communist Party organizes and leads the fight against war preparations generally, and espe- cially the fight against the war on the Soviet Union. A Robber Treaty One of the root causes of the present crisis of cap- italism is to be found in the Versailles Treaty, the war debts and indemnities, and especially the Young Plan of enslavement of the German people. In building and supporting this whole world structure of capitalist op- pression, United States imperialism has played a lead- ing role. More and more the workers are learving that the enslavement of peoples under the Versailles Treaty, the exploitation of the million masses of Eurove by the war debts and the Young Plan, constitute one of the chief causes of their own misery and degrada- tion. The activities of the Communist Party in the United States are winning more and more mass support be- cause the Communist Party leads and organizes the fight to smash the Versailles Treaty, to wipe out the war debts and reparations, and to liberate the German masses from the yoke of the Young Plan. As a result of the economic crisis, the ruling class of this country is intensifying its oppression and ex- ploitation of the colonies and weak nations—in China, the Philippines, and especially in Latin America. At the same moment these oppressed peoples are beginning to fight for their independence and for liberation from the imperialist yoke, the United States and Great Britain are engaged in all of these coun- tries and throughout the world in a desperate strug- gle for control of its markets. This struggle between the United States and Great Britain is being fought out in armed struggles for governmental power between various factions of the local bourgeoisie in each country. Only the Communist Party unconditionally supports and fights for the complete independence and self- determination of every nation, the complete freeing of every colony and semi-colony. Plan War Against U, S. S. R. The preparations for imperialist war are today con- centrated against the Soviet Union. ,The enormous success of the Five-Year Plan of socialist construction in the Soviet Union. has filled the hearts of our cap- italist rulers with fear and panic and desperate rage. The Soviet Union is revolutionizing the working class of the entire world by its very existence, and by the contrast which it presents to the conditions of the workers under capitalism. While in the United States more than nine million workers are unemnloved, jn the Soviet Union unemployment has been completely abolished and there is-an acute shortage of labor. While in the United States wages of the working class are being slashed by eight billion dollars, in the Soviet Union the wages of the working class are steadily increasing and are now 67 per cent above pre- war wages. : While in the United States capitalist rationalization is destroying the health of the workers and throwing ever greater numbers into the ranks of the unemployed, in the Soviet Union every stage in industrial provress is raising the living standards of the workers. While in the United States even the eight-hour day has never been established except for a few privileged groups, the average hours of\labor being around 49 per week, and large numbers of workers slave for ten, eleven and twelve hours per day, in the Soviet Union no one works more than eight hours, and the seven hour day has already been established for half of the industrial workers: Within two years the seven-hour day will be uni- versal, and the six-our day will bezin to be intro- duetd, while at present the six-hour day is in force for miners, chemical workers and young workers under 18. While in the United States the workers must live in the poorest houses, in the Soviet Union the workers have the best of everything that exists. While in the United States the workers have no vacations, ex- cept the starvation vacation of unemployment, in the Soviet Union every worker has two to four weeks paid vacation every year. While in the United States the workers have no insurance against sickness, unemployment, old age, etc., except that provided by capitalist corporations at enormous profits to themselves, in the Soviet Union every worker enjoys complete protection, including a thorough system of maternity endowment. While in the United States every worker lives under the Jash of fear of being discharged at the arbitrary will of his | / | Union the worker is the master of his job and the workers’ organizations control the factories. All of these contrasts, summed up in the contrast of world eapitalism plunging into crisis and decay. while the socialist system of the Soviet Union rises strong and triumphant with the successful execution of the Five-Year Plan, is having the most apparent revolutionary consequences among the masses of work- ers in the United States and of the entire world. For exactly the same reason that the capitalists are filled with panic, fear and hatred against the Soviet Union, the workers are filled with hope and love for the dictatorship of the proletariat, which has’ made | the achievements of the Soviet Union possible. Work- ers are Understanding that.the Soviet Union is really their only fatherland, . ‘The workers will not ficht against the Soviet Union. The workers will rally for the defense of the Soviet Union. The Communist Party is leading ahd orvan- izing the strucgle dgainst the imperialist war and for the defense of the Soviet Union. That is why the workers are turning towards the Communist Party and that is why the Fish Committee is investigating Communism with a view to find new measures to suppress the wi rs and the Communist Party as a part of the preparations for war. The revelations made by the trial of the counter- revolutionary “Industrial Party” in Moscow, showing that the imperialist powers, under the leadership of France, have prepared an armed attack upon the Soviet Union in 1931, has exposed in its det: what, the class conscious workers have known for years was goinz on behind the scenes. The revelation of the American capitalist participa- tion in this plot throuth the finarcing of counter- revolutionary groups within the Soviet Union, shows that American capitalism is more and more going into the imperialist war front against the Soviet Union. The recent speeches of Admiral Pratt and of Hoover's Cabinet members, Wilbur and Hyde, show that this plot reaches into the very center of the United States government. The work of this Fish Committee has also been inti- FOSTER EXPOSES Wm.-Z.

Bachman tried to deny the Jim Crowism by all sorts of lying statements but the other members of the South kept their mouths shut. Just before Foster went on, one Inspector William §. Shelby of the Washington Police Department ad- mitted that the gas bombs were thrown indiscriminately on Monday at the Capitol demonstration but. he didn’t know why or how the order was given for these to be thrown. He said no seditious banners were carried and that there was no un- uSual violence. He was very quickly discharged because he stated they had acted too hastily. The morning se: with Foster still testifying. When the session started in the} afternoon Fish conducted the exam- inetion. He questioned Foster about violence. Foster, in reply, read from the Communist International pro- gram, showing that Communists real- ize that the capitalist class will not surrender its power to exploit work- ers without resorting to violence and that Communists call the workers to m adjourned mately hooked up with this whole international con- spiracy, as was openly exposed by the use of the noto- rious Whalen forgeries and the use of the tribune of this committee by such leading traitors to labor as Matthew Woll, by the Pope's agent, Father Walsh, and the whole campaign led by the Fish Committee for the breaking of trade relations with the Soviet Union. The purpose of this committee is not only the sup- pression of the working class at home, but to prepare a bloody war against the Soviet Union. Hypocritical Nonsense This committee has spent many months trying to convince the public that the Communist Party is an organization of criminal violence for the purpose of preparing the ground for the suppression of the Com- munist Party. This is nothing but hypocritical non- sense. If the theories of this Committee were logically car- ried through, the committee would have to call before its bar, to face the same accusation those who died on the battlefields of the American revolution in the struggle to free the United States from the rule of the British landlords. : _ fe These revolutionists of capitalism who freed America _ from feudal European rule found out that the ruling” class of Britain refused independence to the colonies in spite of the overwhelming desiré of the people as” xpressed in ‘the provincial legislatures.” ork a When the’ British ruling class met these demands for independéned with armed force, these, early rey- olutionists found that government is not a matter of majority votes, but of organized power which’ does not give way to the desires of the majority, but only to a greater power. It was then that they decided that it was “their right,” that it was “their duty to throw off such gov~ ernment and to provide new guards for their future security.” i American history gives us another example of the same principle when with the election of Lincoln and the overwhelming majority voted out of power in the United States government the southern slave holders, these slave holders who took up arms to maintain their particular system of exploitation against the will of the majority. Only an armed struggle succeeded in eliminating the instiutién of chattel slavery. The same law of history will operate in the transition from capitalism to social- ism. A Bloody Path The bloody path that capitalism is travelling today over the lives of the workers is conclusive proof that when the workers, who are the majority, will become convinced by their own experience of the necessity of changing the capitalist order based upon private prop- erty and the enrichment of the few, into a society based upon common ownership of the means of pro- duction and the’ well-being of the masses, then the capitalists will use their last gun and their last dollar in defense of the only constitutional principle they ever really held sacred—that is the unrestricted right to make profit out of the misery of the masses—when the workers who are the majority will demand a chanze from the rule of the few to the rule of the many, then armed violence will be the last trump card of the capitalists. Preparing the Workers The Communist Party is preparing the working class for that day. When the capitalist minority will attempt to maintain their class rule against the will of the working majority, the Communist Party pre- pares the working class to carry out in the proletarian revolution that principle announced by the Colonial revolutionists in the Declaration of Independence that “it is the right, it is the duty” of the working masses “to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security.” The-only possible guard for the future security of the working class is the dictatorship of the proletariat and the establishment of a Sowet government, CHICAGO RATLWAY WORKERS HUNGER (Continued from Page One) iting the homes of those who have asked for aid, but up to the present no assistance has been given — the bosses contenting themselves oy giv- ing the hungry workers and their families free advice about birth con- trol, ete., but no food now. This fake relief plan installed by the rail bosses is recaiving the un- qualified endorsement of the business agents of the Federated Shop Crafts, affiliated to the American Federation of Labor? \ The workers, threatened by another shutdown, which it is thought will take place shortly after Christmas, are beginning to talk straight from the shoulder, and are preparing to fight further attempts of the com- pany and its American Federation of Labor, fakers to break down the standards of living and their work- terrible enough. Many workers are refusing to pay dues to the company- controlled unions and one president of a local union recently made the significant remark that it woud only be a short time before his lodge will affiliate to the Nationa) Railroad In- dustrial League. The company is conducting a cam- paign of terrorization in the Chicago and Proviso shops which has as its purpose the dismissal of every work- er who dares to agitate against the starvation wages and bad working conditions. This campaign is being directed especially against those ot the workers who have little or no influence. The bosses are careful not to attack those who are backed by local unions with a vestige ot fighting policy still remaining. Re- cently at Proviso a foreign-born worker was fired for denouncing the company's fake charity schemes and for talking with his fellow workers about the nedessity of organization. ‘The only remedy for this intoler- able situation is the building .f shop committees within the shops and the affiliation of the local unions of the American Federation of Labor, those which are led by militants, to the National Railroad Industrial League.

I challenge these enemies of labor to produce one single bit of evidence of these charges. What they say is a lie and a fake and they know it.

This congressman admitted there were lyfithings in his state and admitted hat Jim Crowism existed through- /out'-Tennessee. And when Foster bezdn to pile facts upon facts he finally dropped his examination and shut up. Foster went into a detailed state- ment of the program and aims of the Communist Party. and Fish at- tempted to have him answer the question, “Which flag we owe alle- {eiance to, the Red flag or the Amer- lican flag.” Foster said that the workers recognize the Red flag as the flag of struggle against capital- ism and that is the flag they will follow in overthrowing capitalism. Amter on the stand was asked whether he believed in the world revolution. He said, “You can see | throughout the world that capitalism is decaying. The United States is in @ severe crisis. In Latin America there are revolutions. In China the masses are following the Communist Party. In India there is a grave economic and political crisis and this will intensify the revolutionary strug- gles of the workers.” He was asked whether he gave allegiance to the American flag or the Red flag and answered as Foster did. Jingo Testifies. The next witness, Henry J. Nowles, presented a resolution against Com- munism adopted at the Boston con- vention of the American Legion. The next witness was Harry Heeney. He brought up the matter of the Liberty motors that were sup- posed to have been bought by the Soviet Government. He had to admit that he did not know where these motors went to. Fish For Embargo. The next witness, Roger Baldwin, of ‘the American Civil Liberties Union, said that his organization was not connected with Communists but was interested only in the struggle for free speech. In a verbal contest between Baldwin and Fish, Fish ad- mitted he was for stronger deporta- tion laws and for a secret police and for breaking trade with the Soviet Union. “You can quote me 1,000 times on this,” Fish said. Bachman also said he would en- dorse the same thing. The other members kept quiet. Harry Gannes takes the stand. He was asked about the Daily Worker; where the finances comes from.
