It is the most stable govern- ment in existence. It is the only government that solved the problem of unemployment. It solved this problem at a time when under all capitalist governments unemployment in- creased by leaps:and bounds. But the government of the United States has steadfastly refused to recognize the gov- ernment of the Soviet Union. It denies recog- nition to the Soviet Government as the legal political representative of the Russian people (de jure recognition). It even refuses to rec- ognize the very fact of the existence of the So- viet Government (de facto recognition). Ac- cording to the gentlemen in Washington it is not within the right of the 160 million people of Russia to decide whether the Soviet Gov- ernment should govern and represent them. This right is claimed as the exclusive privi- lege of the 59 rulers of the United States. Since, against the wishes of the rulers of America the peoples of Russia insist on main- taining the Soviet Government, these rulers of America, against the wishes of the Russian People, insist on trying to overthrow the So- viet Government. The capitalists of the United States wrest profits out of their workers. They slash their wages to make more profits. They break their organizations to prevent the workers from fighting against the wage slashes. If the work- ers strike anyway, the capitalists have their courts forbid it. With gun in hand their po- lice enforce the court’s prohibition. The capi- talists set up an industrial spy system to watch every move of their workers. If a spy reports a worker’s breath that could be interpreted as opposed to the profit system, the reported worker is sent to the penitentiary for criminal syndicalism or he is deported as an undesirable alien. Under capitalism the defense of the right to press profit out of the sweat of the ynasses is the primary function of government. Therefore the capitalists have transformed op- position to the profit system into the crime of high treason. They import cheap red, white and Sue bunting, woven and dyed by miser- ably paid textile workers in Japan and demand of the ‘American workers to kiss this bunting in recognition of the inviolable rights of the American capitalists to squeeze profits out of their workers and their children. They use their laws, their courts, their police, their prisons, and their army to prevent the work- ers from fighting ageinst wage cuts and against starvation caused by unemployment. The Soviet Union on the other hand defendsraged when a workers’ government dares to the interests of the working masses against the profit makers. While the American police- }man helps the capitalist to keep the workers down, the policeman of the Soviet Union helps the workers to keep the capitalists down. This being so, the government in Washington feels that Soviet recognition would mean sanction- ing the proletarian revolution. The American government spies for the capitalists on the {workers so they may not interfere with profits. This government, therefore, cannot recognize the Soviets because they watch the capitalists to prevent them from interfering with the welfare of the workers. For the capi- talist dictatorship in America it is only natural that masses of American workers should be disfranchised on the pretext of their race, their color, their nationality or their lack of permanent residence. For this government, therefore, it is intolerable to see that the workers’ democracy of the Soviet Union dis- | franchises the capitalists on the ground that they are useless parasites. Fourteen years of existence of the Soviet Union have considerably changed the problem of Soviet recognition. The Soviet government continues to exist because it is strong. It will continue to exist whether it will be recognized or not. It can tell the United States today what capitalist revolutionary France once told feudal reactionary Austria: “Our government is like the sun; you may not recognize—but yet it is there.” Even capitalist judges in America must acknowledge this. Federal Judge Gaffey declared the other day in de- ciding a case which involved the Soviet Gov- ernment that the Union of Socialist Soviet. Re- publics is a government whether the State De- partment in Washington recognizes it or not. Soviet recognition by the United States is clearly no longer a burning issue. The issue is rather the economic war organized by the American government against the Soviet Union. The American government persistent- ly declares that it does not know of the exist- ence of any Soviet Government; but just as persistently it is laboring to overthrow this “non-existent” Soviet Government. Its very refusal of recognition is based on vicious propaganda and not on facts. The So- viet Government has been declared repeatedly outside the pale of civilization. Why? The autocratic regime of the bloody ezar mowed down with machine guns the peacefully peti- tioning workers in front of his palace. That did not cause the slightest protest from the guardians of civilization in Washington. But when the workers’ government of Russia exe- cutes a kulak because of murderous counter- revolutionary activities, then outraged civiliza- tion is defended vociferously by the Washing-| ton government. Exploit. little children for profit; that is civilization. Send the workers onto the battlefields of imperialist wars and have millions of them killed and maimed for profits; that is civilization. Close your fac- tories and throw the workers on the streets by the millions, exposing them to starvation; that is civilization. But civilization becomes out- refuse payment of debts incurred by its for- ‘mer oppressors and for purposes of its op- pression, The main debt claims of the United States against Russia are based on 86 million dollars borrowed by the czar from private banks in the United States and on 187 million dollars borrowed by the Kerensky Government from the U. S. Government. At the time of the Soviet Revolution the former czar of Russia} owned about 100 million dollars worth of American stocks, bonds and other securities. This possession was managed and manipulated by a financial agent of the czar in America. At the time of the Russian Revolution this financial agent of the czar was none other than Boris Bakhmetev. Kerensky elevated Bakhmetev from this post to the position of ambassador in Washington of “his” govern- ment. The czar having contracted the 87 mil- lion dollars debts mentioned above could and | should have been made to pay these debts | through his financial agent, Mr. Bakhmetey.| That, however, would not have been a civilized course in the eyes of the Washington govern-| ment. According to the capitalist rulers of America it is the historic mission of the Rus- sian people to pay the debts of the dead czar just as it was their historic mission to supply his wealth when he lived. A still more interesting history is connected with the Kerensky debt. At the time of the fall of the Kerensky government more than 60 million dollars of the money loaned by the American government to Kerensky were de- posited in the National City Bank of New York. This amount had not yet been spent. Upon taking over power the Soviets imme- diately cabled instructions to the National City Bank to make no more payments out of these funds on orders of Bakhmetev or his agents. The U. S. Government countermanded these orders. It not only insisted that Mr. Bakh- metev has a right to spend these more than 60 million dollars long after “his” government had ceased to exist; the Washington govern- ment even saw to it that this fund was in- creased. $22,500,000 were realized on the sale| of property of the Russian people in the United States. This money was not used to liquidate Russian debts in America but was | paid by ‘the Washington government into the treasury of Mr. Bakhmetev. War materials) which had been bought for Russia in the} United States were re-sold in America and 11) million dollars were realized out of this sale. These 11 million dollars were not applied to the liquidation of Russian debts; the Amer- ican=government paid them into the treasury of Mi<Bakhmetev. The United States gov- ernment had chartered Russian vessels and owed to the Russian people for their use about | $1,500,000. The Washington government. did | not apply this to liquidate Russian debts; it! paid it into the treasury of Mr. Boris Bakhme- they were all paid into the treasury of Mr. Bakhmetev. - What was done with all of these millions, the payment of which the American govern- ment now demands from the Soviet govern-} ment? Mr. Bakhmetev at the instigation of the U. S. government and in all cases with its consent supplied war materials to the anti- Soviet forces of Kolchak and Wrangel. Tanks, guns, etc., were provided from these funds to the armies which fought a bloody counter- revolutionary war against the Soviet govern- ment. More than a million and a quarter of dollars were paid out of this fund to print. in America paper money for Kolchak. Yet with all the money, all the guns and all the war ma- terials which the U. S. with its allies supplied to Kolchak and Wran- gel, the latter could not defeat the Soviets.

The nois cover up the infamy of the ‘-ansaction. The capitalist constitution of the United States provided that “debts and obligations incurred in the aid of rebellion against the government are illegal and void.” The U. S. Government practiced this even before it preached it. It repudiated the debts of the Confederacy and then legalized this repudia- tion in the 14th Amendment to the Consti- Washington demands of the Soviets that they either pay the “debts and obligations incurred | in the rebellion” against them, or be placed out side the pale of civilization.

Raise the fight for the right to for world markets, colonies, and other spoils. It signifies that both these imperialist powers, faced with the Sharpening of the world crisis, have united for an attack on Communism —an attack against the Soviet Union. The leading American imperialists admit now that they are bolstering up the fascist regime of Bruening in order to save the Young Plan and the whole system of debt payments resulting from the last World War. Writing from Berlin to the New York Evening Post, H. B. Knicker- bocker, anti-Soviet scribbler declares that the Hoover plan was drawn “to save Germany from what appeared to be the inevitable throés of Commu- MacDonald Acts. Knickerbocker, at the same time, reveals the fact that one of the leading figures in this imperialist ef- fort to keep the masses from over- throwing capitelism was the “social- ist” Ramsay MacDonald, chief agent of British imperialism. “Prime Min- ister McDonald,” writes Knicker- bocker, “heard a deal about Com- munist preparations from Chancel- lor Bruening when he was at Ohe- quers and it is believed that he cer- tainly passed along to Secretary of the Treasury Mellon the general gloomy prognostication that Commu- nism would come if Germany were allowed to collapse.” MacDonald strove to save American investments, as well as British in Germany, and to keep the German masses under the yoke of the Young Plan. Unite Against Communism. Similar éxpressions are made by leading American capitalist politi- cians. Senator Smoot, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, com- menting on the Hoover proposal, said that the “danger of Commu- nism caused Hoover to act.” Senator King of Utah, Democrat, supporting Hoover, said: “I knew of conditions in the Reichsbank and was afraid of the effect on Europe if it failed. I was afraid it would arouse both the Hitler party and the Communists ine Germany and have dangerous consequences to the whole of Europe.” Meanwhile, the squabble about the Hoover plan is growing in France, Belgium and Italy. Opposition is developing among leading forces in the United States, particularly Hearst. On all hands, the danger of war grows greater every day. Every worker should rally behind the prep- arations for the international cam- paign against imperialist war prep- arations to take place on August 1, under the leadership of the Commu- nist International.

The deputies continued to fire on those who fled. The ground was strewn with wounded men, and the deputies rushed about, herding all who could stand into corners and placing them under arrest. Forty-one were ar- rested. Many of these were wound- ed. It is not known yet how many. ‘Those who could not stand lay bleeding on the ground without at- tention for twenty minutes. Finally outsiders, not in the strike, were permitted to load them into trucks, and carry them to the hospitals. 1 Peter Zigaric died either on the | way to the hospital, or in it. | Now in West Penn Hospital lie: | Pete Zigaric, dead; Adolph Wagner, shot in the side of the head and the side; Charles Bestwick, shot in the mouth; John ©! ki, with four bullets in side, leg and neck; Robert Young, shot in the side of the head; Nick Wincwski. with two wounds in his chest; Peter Brown, shot in the arm.

He has a wife and three children who hope he will recover. Robert Young was apparently the first to fall.

The capitalist papers of Pittsburgh ing lies—the deputies firdd “to de- fend themselves from a howling mob attacking them!” “Foster Leads At- tack On Mine,” shrieks a headline in Hearst's Sun-Telegram. Most of. the stories in the capitalist press place Borich at or near the scene of the picketing; some say he was at the Cheswick picnic. The fact is that though Foster spoke at Cheswick on Sunday, he was not even in the state at the time of the picketing. As for Borich, your correspondent was with Borich at Brownsville all day on the day of the Cheswick meeting. The capitalist press agrees that the pick- ets fired on the deputies.

A wave of rage sweeps over the The 40,000 strikers are more determined than ever to win their strike, injunction or no injunc- tion. While the Wildoow picketing and the murder by the coal operators and Pinchot’s deputies was taking place, 1,500 marched on Vesta No. 5 and pulled out half of the 1,600 work- ing there. The rest will come out soon. (Vesta No. 5 was completely closed by mass picketing Tues- day—Ed.) The men who poined the picket line at Vesta 5 marched then on Clyde No. 1 of the Rainey Coal Co. at Fredericktown and brought out half the men there. The rest will come out.
