What are they doing about such an elementary matter as providing lunches for school children? Children Faint In School from Hunger. It is estimated that in Cleveland the number of undernourished children in the elementary schools will reach 15,000 before the end of the present school term, in addition to at least 5,000 in the high schools. Children are fainting in the school rooms from lack of food. In the face of this the school board refused to do anything for But we Communists think it perfectly possible to have a revolution without going to the awful expense of working class suffering that a capi- talist war kicks up. We think that a revolution in the United States is possible without war with England or without war on the Soviet Union. True enough, one might come quicker if the American capi- talists are fools enough to go to war. But Communists are the ONLY ONES to op- pose capitalist war.

Hundreds of evictions are taking place daily in Pittsburgh and vicinity. Thousands of work- ers’ children are forced to stay away from school because of lack of food and clothing. Thousands of workers’ families in the mine and steel towns have no milk for their children. The dirty hypo- crite Pinchot announced that the four milk sta- tions in Western Pennsylvania will be closed down because of “lack of funds.” “There is plen- ty of money for graft and armed thugs to slug There are governments however which are still making strenuous efforts in order to maintain the appearance of a stable currency (Austria, Hungary, Germany). But even in these coun- tries the “gold standard” has in reality been abandoned, The, capitalist world stands bewildered in face of this situation. The cleverest of the world bankers are puzzling their brains how to pre- vent a general collapse of the currency. One proposes that the gold cover of the banknotes be reduced at one stroke by 20 per cent, others wish to abolish the gold cover altogether. ‘The first result already to be seen of the first eral obligatory education up to the age of 17? But, it is objected, there is a lack of shoes, of butter, clothing and. other necessary articles, whilst in the capitalist countries the shop win- dows are simply full of goods and, as a bourgeois newspaper cynically expressed it, “every worker can buy what he wants provided he has the money”! It is‘true, all the workers in the Soviet Union cannot with their wages, which are increasing from year to year and from month to month, buy everything they want. One time there is a short- age of shoes, another time a shortage of butter, another time a shortage of eggs, although at the Certain other arrangements, regarding the class collaboration that would ensue between the owners and their “pets” we hesitate to give here.

Now we shall take care that. in the reform- ist trade unions the strike-breaking policy of the reformists shall encounter the resistance of the members. But Bruening went on to say that the govern- ment had succeeded in preventing the united front of the 's. By this he officially de- wor! the: firm bloc of the trade unions.” We wish to state here: When the miners in the Ruhr a few weeks ago commenced a strike against the aboli- tion of the collective agreements, Aufhueser’s friends organized strike-breaking; the social- democratic president of the government had the members of the strike committee arrested; and in Mansfeld these social democrats even volun- tarily reduced wages by 10 per cent.

On top of this starvation, new wage cuts are being introduced in the mines and steel mills to make still lower the conditions of the workers.

As the last solution of imperialist antagonisms imperialist war is not only being prepared, but is already being waged in the Far East! The capitalists wish to abolish the gold basis but to maintain the prices, which taken altogether are only the expression of the value of commodities reflected in the value of gold—with the exception of one single commodity, the commodity known as la- bor power. There lies the true meaning of the open and concealed manipulations of currency; Union by pointing to this contradiction, know very well themselves that the shortage of goods in the Soviet cities is precisely a sign of the in- creasing well-being of the masses, while the crowded shop windows in all the capitalist coun- tries are a sign of mass misery. Why are the warehouses and shops of the bourgeotsie filled with unsaleable goods? Why is there “too much” corn, although great quantities of grain are used for feeding cattle and poultry? Why is there “too much” coffee, although mil- lions of sacks of coffee are thrown into the sea? -Marx himself has answered this question: “There is not too much food produced in re- at the White House for the season. The recep- ° tion of the National Hunger Marchers is NOT figured in the list. Warren Delano Robbins, ceremonial officer, is managing the receptions, except the Hunger March reception, which will be “managed” by the police and an odd lot of marines and U. 8. sol- diers.

Capitalism thereby intensifies the dan- gerous contradictions of its system. The constant wage cuts are bound to intensify to the utmost the proletarian class struggle. Capitalism thus tempers the weapon of the united revolutionary class front of the unemployed and the workers in the factories, the weapon which will give it the death stroke. In almost all countries the standard of living of the workers still in employment has been de- Nobody expected that production adapted to the requirements of a limited number of “con- sumers” could at one stroke be made to suffice to meet the requirements of 160 millions. But it is a fact that to-day the pre-war production of shoes, sugar and many other commodities of which there still prevails a shortage, has been increased many times over.
