Today the | police inspector arrived and demand- | ed information concerning the per: | sons responsible for the issues of | September 16 to 24 which contained the news of the naval mutiny at In- vergordon. The police also visited | and questioned the printers of the} paper. . The foregoing cable indicates that not only is the National government preparing for a fascist dictatorship with the aid of the Labor Party, but | that one of the first steps in this fascist development is the attack on the Communist Party of Great Brit- ain and the Daily Worker. Ca oe Great Britain faces the prospect of an immediate inflation in the cur- rency and it is not unlikely that this will be carried on for some time, ac- cording to a statement issued by Sir Josiah Stamp, one of the leading bankers in England, a director of the Bank of England and president of the London, Milland and Scottish Railway. He points out that the danger of inflation is not only an im- mediate one for Great Britain but for other European countries. “Going off the gold standard be- cause of an unbalanced budget and with the prospect of an unlimited issue of paper money conjures up visions of past currency disorgani- zations in Europe—the flight from the mark and the flight from the franc—and it naturally makes all people abroad who have dealings with Great Britain apprehensive, for all historical parallels show that this is a perilous condition both for the debtor and the creditor.” ‘The prospect is a repetition of the terrific disorganization due to infla- tion that Germany went thru in 1923 and France in 1926. This inflation- ary period will bring wth it on the | one hand the sharpest ntensification | of the struggle for the world mark- | ets and with it the sharpening of | the war danger. On the other hand | it means the most vicious attack on the living standards of the working class in all of the capitalist powers and the devlopment of fascism as the means to carry thru this attack. Inflation to Continue Past inflationary periods, Stamp points out, have meant “encourage- ment to exports and to dumping.” ‘This is the present significance of the suspension of the gold standard in Great Britain, Great Britain is trying to take advantage of all of the possibilities of the drop in the value of the pound in order to in- crease its exports at the expense of the other capitalist powers. The ad- vantage to Great Britain of the slump in the pound will only continue so Tong as it is inflated and the prospect is for increased inflation in order to maintain this advantage. This is the policy that many indus- trialists have been clamoring for in England for the past several years, with the cooperation of the reattion- ‘ery trade union leaders. ‘The inflation in Great Britain ts @ direct incentive for inflation by all other powers on the world market even so far as they are not forced to it immediately to maintain their own finances from collapse. Socialists Prepare Fascist Dictator- ship In this policy of inflation it is the Socialists that are the chief support- ers of the capitalist class. In the Conservative party many of the lead- ers are demanding that there be im- mediate elections so that the fascist dictatorship may be established un- der a National governmnt from which all. the irresolute elements have been cleaned out. The conserva- tives want a fascist government un- der the leadership of Ramsay Mac- Donald, according to the New York Times. ~ “The Conservatives do not intend to appeal to the people in the name of their own party but in the name of the existing emergency govern- ment with Prime Minister MacDon- ald as its head.” ‘The dissesion in the Labor Party has spread from the “left wing” to the center. Even the centrists in the “Socialist” Labor Party realize that the open betrayal of the workers by the new leader of the Labor Party is too much. They realize that it is driving the masses of the British working class from the Labor Party. The left wing and the centrists in the Labor Party are attacking Hen- WISCONSIN AFL PROPOSES BOARD OF FASCIST RULE. MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin.—J. J. Handley, secretary of the Wisconsin | Federation of Labor, has one proposal to solve the ‘State of emergency ex-| isting with respect to unemployment and the bu: depression,” and that to give extraordinary powers to the Industrial Commission to “regu- late hours of labor, fix conditions of | employment,” etc. This fascist pro-) posal has been presented at the ses-| sion of the interim unemployment | committee of the State Legislature. This committee has been meeting for three days and had its hearings | “open” to the invited public—which | means politicians, business leaders, professors, and a few labor fakers. The discussion at the committee | meeting consisted of the usual smoke | screen proposals of the progressive politicians, professors like Commons, which may lead to recommendations to enact a 3 to 5 million dollars re- lief appropriation, pass the 8 hour law, adopt a two per cent tax on in- come to the special session of the| legislature which will be called some | time in November or December.” Mr. Handley, besides this proposal, also| got extensive publicity through the discussion he had with Mr. Osborne, a lumber manufacturer, in which he | charged the manufacturers with try-| ing to “Russianize America.” This means help prepare a revolution. The socialist party, which for tractical | reasons is displaying opposition tricks | was not present at the hearing. But an editorial of the “Milwaukee Lead- er” endorsed this proposal which the bourgeois press admits is industrial dictatorship, but which according to the social-fascists, is “justified by the emergency, the state must interfere,” etc. . The commission is going to call public hearings in the most important ; cities of the state. A hearing in Milwaukee is scheduled for Sept. 28- 29, and in Racine on the 30th, The unemployed workers will be there, and through their spokesman, the Communist Party and the Unem- ployed Council, and will have their saying to the fascists and social fas- cists. MANY NEGROES AT, GARLIN MEETINGS WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 22— In this notorious jim-crow city, seat of the Wall Street government, a Jarge number of Negro workers at- tended the mass meeting addressed here Monday night at Plasterers’ Hall, by Sender Garlin, co-editor of the Labor Defender, who is making a national tour for the International Labor Defense, following a four months’ tour of the Soviet Union and Germany. Speaking on the subject, “Prole- tarian Triumps in the USSR and Boss Terror in the USA,” Garlin il- lustrated his talk with striking scenes showing the progress of the Five- Year Plan in the Soviet Union and contrasted this with the “Hoover Five-Year Plan”—breadlines, terror, war preparations, Harlan, Ky., etc. Two plainclothes police and a sten- ographer attended this meeting. The Washington meeting followed @ successful meeting held at the Eu- ropa Theatre in Baltimore, where more than 100 workers were turned away for lack of space. Previous to the meeting in the theatre Garlin ad- dressed several hundred marine work- ers at the Baltimore waterfront at a meeting arranged jointly by the ILD and the Marine Workers Industrial Union. <A large number of workers joined) the ILD at meetings held pre- viously in Chester, Philadelphia and Trenton; * Garlin’ speaks in Boston this Fri- day night at New International Hall; in Worcester at 29 Endicott St., Sun- day, September 27; and in Brockton, at Lithuanian National Hall, Maine and Vine Sts., on Monday, September 28. | foreign exchange markets were strong yesterday but this strength was itself only an indication of teh withdrawal of funds from the United States to stabilize their position which has been shaken tremendously by the slump in the pound.

In | this respect the statement was milder than one of a few months ago in which Mr. Green pledged the federation’s support to any group of workers resisting wage | cuts and declared that reductions | of pay would be ‘resisted with all | the means at labor’s command,’ which was regarded as a strike threat.” While Green talks about “solemn } promises violated” by the United | States Steel Corporation he hushes | up his previous statement on wage cuts being “resisted with all the | means at labor's command.” ~ Every action of Green now em- phasizes the conspiracy of the wage cut drive which resulted from con- | ferences between Green, Hoover, Doak | and the leading bosses now taking | part in the present wage cut drive. | While previously Green talked about some kind of action in his | present statement he steers clear of | any mention of strike, veering off into a sham threat to fight—for low- | ler tariffs. Green and the other A.| F. of L. officials do not want the of preparation of immediate strike | action. Hence he “threatens” a fight on the tariff, which is equivalent to} his policy of calling for a fight for | beer when the workers demand bread. More proom thbt the wage cut! drive was submitted to Hoover and | fully approved by him is contained in the statement of William R. Wood, republican chairman of the House) Appropriations Committee. Wood,| who is @ close associate of Hoover, said: “In my opinion it is the best | thing that can possibly happen to| the wage earners themselves.” | Wood is for a wage cut for all gov- | ernment employers. At the same time Wood proposes an increase in the| war expenditures of the government. | Japan War Moves Are Advancing {CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) are seeking to provoke war. The Times dispatch says: “Peiping telegraphs that the foreign attaches there have been informed the Japanese have decided to occupy Harbin and have already left Chang- chun for that important center.” At the same time, there is a sharp- | er conflict springing up between Wall | Street and Japan over Japanese seiz- | ure of Chinese territory in Man- churia. While the capitalist news- | papers try to pass this sharpness off | as a polite exchange of diplomatic | notes between Stimson, the Japanese and the League of National, state- ments in the Japanese press show) how bitter is the conflict between | these two grasping powers. An Associated Press dispatch from | Tokio belies the reports from Wash- | ington that matters are going smooth- | ly and that “peace” will soon be es- | tablished. It says: | “Foreign Minister Shidehara, the Tokio newspaper Nichi-Nichi said today, was determined to reject all outside efforts at arbitration or in- tervention. , .” At the same time, the New York Times stated that the reason behind Secretary of State Stimson’s action in sending notes to China and Japan is to advance the imperialist interest of Wall Street in China. The Times reported from Washington: “No announcement was made of the basis of his (Stimson’s) action. But there were some indications that the State Department had in mind the rights of the United States under the nine-power treaty of the Washington Conference, which guarantees the open door and BIRMINGHAM BOSS (CONTINUED FROM vAGE ONED ticles with huge front page scream headlines claiming the positive iden- After the Wage Cuts- Inflation 'HE actions of the British Labor Party and its leaders, MacDonald, Snowden and Henderson, in preparing and carrying out the recent attacks on the British working class, “inspire” their little brothers in the U. 5., to equal them in their servile attitude to the American bourgeoisie in its present attack on the American working class. Compare the actions of the British social fascists with their American cousins. One of the main reasons given by MacDonald for cutting the wages of the employed and the allowances of the unemployed was that this will help to save the pound, thus saving the purchasing value of their wages and allowances. He also tried to “sell” the British workers the idea, that in spite of a ten per cent cut, with the fall in prices, however, they will | be able to buy more of their life necessities than before. But what actually happened? With the abandonment of the gold standard, with the value of the pound declining, a rise in prices is the inevitable result. This policy of inflation of the British bourgeoisie is directed against the working class and also its competitors on the world | The low prices on the | market, to make possible large-scale dumping. world market are to be made wp by higher prices on the home market. Together with inflation, the British bourgeoisie are also carrying out a policy of high tariff walls. High tariffs mean a further increase in prices, and particularly for a country like England which imports most of its foodstuff commodities. Inflation, tariff, monopoly control of prices, on the one hand raises the cost of living, while wage cuts on the other hand still further reduce the purchasing power. The attack on the standard of living of the British working class shows the desperation of the ruling class, and its determination to raise its competitive power on the world market at the expense of the working class. The cheapen- ing of production by cheapening the lives of the workers—is the slogan of ‘the British ruling class! And it became the historical duty and “idealistic” mission of the “strong and noble characters” of MacDonald and Snowden to try to “put it over” on the workers. But the action of the British Navy is one of many signals that the grip of the Social Fascists is weakening and that the British working class is rising. If we turn to the U. S. what do we see? In substance the same policies. In fact, the American bourgeoisie is already stimulated by the “success” of its competitor, to do likewise. Open widespread wage cuts, with the blessing of the entire capitalist press, is the war declaration of our own ruling class. With wage cuts, and already existing tariff walls, we already hear the first songs of inflation in the U. 8. also, The first steps of an organized campaign of the bourgeoisie and its vanguard in preaching the gospel of inflation, are taken by the liberals of the New Republic, Brisbane of the Hearst papers, and, of course, the American soul mate of MacDonald, none other than Mr. Norman Thomas, leader of the Socialist Party. The New Republic, in an editorial in its Sept. 30 issue, gives its blessing to the inflation policy of MacDonald. Seeing that “Britain inflates” it considers this “as the most hopeful development in the world economic situation.” ‘The blessing given here to the inflation policy of the British National Goyernment, 1s for the purpose of paving the way for an inflation policy in the U. S. The dump- ing and tariff challenge of the British bourgeoisie must be met. In the drive to oust Britain from the world markets America is to develop its own inflation policy. The voice of the New Republic is not a call in the wilderness. Arthur Brisbane in the N. Y. American of Sept. 24 speaks quite plainly when he says, “Might it be wise for the U. S., taking the advice of a financial writer, employed by Mr. Cyrus H. K. Curtis, to ‘loosen up,’ which means inflating the currency . . . reasonably.” And finally the voice of Mr. Norman Thomas. In the New Leader of Sept. 19 we find the following gem: “Well, a country with the gold reserve of the U. S. can stand a Ittle inflation.” The New Republic editorial refers to inflation as a “cure to the ills of capitalism.” Wage cuts, high monopoly prices, tariff, inflation, huge armaments, like a whole series of surgical operations, are to be administered to capitalism, @ sick and dying “patient. And the working class is to be made to take this medicine and to pay for the bill. The | Doctor's assistant, called upon by # decaying system to administer the anaesthetic, and on many occasions also to wield the knife, is the Social- ist Party of the Second Internation—social fascism. The capitalist system under the burden of its own contradictions is getting so shaky that its “best thinkers” are not much confident about their proposed cures. States the editorial of the New Republic: “The course is difficult, but it is worth trying. IF (our emphasis) we are lucky enough to climb out of this collapse, we must turn our attention | to more fundamental management of our economy in order that we may not even fall into a worse depression when the effects of the drug have worn off.” ‘The more shaky the structure of capitalism appears to its ruling class the more furious it attacks the standard of living of the working class, the more feverishly it prepares for war. The working class under the leadership of the Communist Party, now learning how to fight against each and every attack upon its liveli- hood, is thus also learning to mobilize its forces tofind a revolutionary way out of the crisis.

This is an effective way of helping, through the Daily Worker, the work of getting together all workers, whether strike, em- ployed or unemployed, and mak- ing them realize that the fight of the strikers is their fight. This will not only create mass sympathy for the strike, but spread the sphere of influence of the paper further out into working-class dis- tricts, uniting all in al ever- widening class solidarity. In view of the rising tide of workers who refuse to be stopped by false promises, it is necessary now, more than ever before, to see that the Daily Worker is given a wider cir- culation, especially where strikes are occurring or imminent, The Daily Worker Club is the best an- swer to this problem.

This is an invitation that American capitalism go into action against Japan and take over Man- churia for its pains. PRESS INCITE made from a moving car by Nell Wil- liams, the society woman who was wounded at the time her two com- panions were killed by a hold-up Just another result of the speed- up and lack of concern for the wel- |fare of the longshoremen on the Mor- gan fine piers is the terrible unne- cessary injury of John O'Dwyer, a longshoreman on gang No. 2, Septem- ber 2. This poor fellow is maimed for life, he may even die, causing his dependents to suffer. His case could just as well have been yours or mine, as all of us longshoremen on pier 48 are aware of. I will explain how it happened for the interest of other longshoremen. The first thing in the morning gang 2 run by “Woof Woot” was rushed “off shore” to work on a car load of heavy bales. The gang had a couple “green” men that morning. As the men were driven into quick ac- tion as usual by Kelly’s senseless yells, one of the “green” men quick- ly climbed to the top of the bales, and without singing out, he began to push the top bale off. Being green, he did not know that the whole tier would fall, which happened. Every- one yelled and jumped clear except John O'Dwyer, who was knocked down and a second later began to scream in agony as the men lifted @ bale from his body and exposed Now this murderous crime could have been easily avoided had the foreman began work calmly, placing experienced and green men where they belong. But instead, the bosses take advantage of a new man’s will- ingness to do his utmost and lets him kill himself and others. Thiy man gets no insurance be- cause he didn’t work on the pier long enough. Saturday the longshoremen made a collection and gave the un- fortunate man $34. That’s the only help he got—the solidarity of his fel- low workers. —A Longshoreman Editorial Note:—The longshore- men on the Morgan Line Piers should at once take steps to organ- ize grievance committees and de- mand that a stop be put to the reckless speed-up. If the workers organize on the docks and put for- ward their demands, backing them with militant strike action, they can put a stop to these miserable conditions, The Marine Workers Industrial Union, 140 Broad Street, New York City, will give the long- shoremen guidance and leadership in organizing and fighting for their demands. British crisis have been felt very sharply. The Journal of Commerce reports that “the financial difficul- ties of many large firms have be- come accentuated especially in the northern textile area where English credits have been withdrawn, but support was given by French banks. “For the first eight months of 1931 the adverse balance of trade in France amounts to over 9,000,000,000 francs as compared with an adverse balance of about 5,700,000,000 francs in the first eight months of 1930. Practically all of the European powers are preparing to make de- mands that the reparations question should be reopened. Any reopening of the reparations question will be only for the reduction in reparations. This will mean a very sharp blow at the United States budget. If the United States capitalists agree to a cut in the reparations 1t will mean an intensified drive in the U. S. for in- derson because the masses of the workers are learning of the treachery of the Labor Party leaders. They realize that if they want to continue to mislead the workers it will be necessary to make at least a show of opposition now. Up to the present the program of the “Socialist Oppo- sition” has been the program adopt- ed by the “National” government. ‘The “opposition” advocated such in- direct attacks against the workers’ wages as tariffs and going off the gold standard.
