National Independence must be re- garded only 2s a means to an end. ‘We must not only keep clearly in mind the kind of republic we want, but more important still, we must make sure to take the steps necessary to obtain it.” DE VALERA Elsewhere “An Phobacht” editori- ally describes what sort of republic it demands. It states: “Ireland’s free- dom is not something to be won by negotiation. To those who are now seeking a settlement with England we say: “Here in Ireland we can decide to We free and we can free ourselves. We can begin right now by a united of- fensive on imperialism! And, let the objective be clear—tireland undivided, a@ clean cut from the Empire, and a Republic based on the workers and farmers, in whom all the wealth and potential wealth of Ireland shall be vested, and by whom all power shall be exercised. On that program we can have unity—and success.’ ” This Irish criticism of the compro- mising. negotiating Fanna Fal govern- ment of De Valera fals, however, to point out that only through the de- yelopment of the Revolutionary Work- ers Groups into s Communist Party of Ireland can the struggle for a free Ireland be waged to a successful con- clusion. WAR IN IRELAND “& blow delivered against the power of the British imperialist bourgeoisie by the rebellion in Ireland is a hun- dred times more significant than a low of equal force delivered in Asia or in Africa. The dialectics of history is such that small nations, impotent as independent factors in the struggle against imperialism, act as a ferment, as one of the bacilli helping to bring to the surface the real forces against imperialist, namely the proletariat.” —Quoted from Lenin by an Irish Republican paper (!). oti sae THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MEDAL All the capitalist sheets of New e full of the wedding of the ish Prince Gustay Adolph to a Co>urg princess. The remnants of the Czarisi Romanoffs were there, to- gether with the reigning and ex- ruling houses of Europe. All that they mention. But they conceal the fact that the Nazi City Council of Coburg, while appropriating 1,200 marks for decorating the city for the royal wed- ding, cut tne unemployment relief rates 50 per cent. eo A ZABERN AFFAIR IN SLOVAKIA FALKENAU.—Durin an argument with German guests in a restaurant here, in the German area of Bohemia, a Czech lieutenant pulled out his re- volver and shot two workers, one unemployed end the other a butcher's assistant. The government refused to deliver the ofiicer for criminal prsecu- | tion. Before. the World War, imperial Prussia had the Zabern affair in Alsace-Lorraine, which. stirred the entire world to protest. Today, in the militarized French vassal state, Czech- osioyakia, Zabern is re?enacted, but the so-called “conscience of the world” is strangely silent. It remains for the victorious proletariat to abolish, once for all, all such miHtarist provocatons. ORLOFF-OPECK TRIAL POSTPONED I. L. D. Wins Delay to Novy. 21st MORGANTOWN, W. V., Oct. 21.— ‘The first attempt of the mine bosses to legally murder two militant_min- ers, Joseph Orloff and Sam Opeck, accused of killing a yellow dog (mine guard) has been checked by the In- ternational Labor Defense. The vi- cious attempt of the Morgantown District Attorney Schuman to hold the trial two days after the men were indicted was successfully fought, and the trial was postponed until today. The fight to save these two men must proceed with all possible haste. Slavic and Croatian organizations, United Mine Workers of America and National Miners Union locals, have been urged to form a United front Orloff-Opeck Defense Committee. v Funds are needed to print 50,000 leeflets for c'reulation in the mining Rush all funds to the Or- '-Opeck BRefens> Commitite, 608 CZECHO- Munition Bosses in Secret Meet As Four Wars Rage in Asia and South America School Funds By ARTHUR MILLER. HAMMOND ,Ind.—Hoover's latest mockery is his suggestion for short- ening the working day. This is add- ing insult to injury. He has already shortened the working day for one- half the workers, now employed, and for those who are working part time. Perhaps he intends to further shorten the working day by giving to those unemployed or employed\part time— gas to shorten their working day for- ever, as he did to the bonus army in Washington. Another of Hoover’s recommenda- tion is the elimination of child labor. Funny it took all these years for Hoo- ver to say he wanted to help the chil- dren, But he contradicts his state- ments: “We should not forget that idleness is no more helpful to children than it is to adults, and that rigorous enforcement and support of school attendance is a vital accompaniment to all reduction of child employment.” But he never said anything about setting aside a sum for the purpose of this school attendance. State and city governments are cutting appro- priations for education. The Federal government makes no move to help. T would like to ask Mr. Hoover: How can any family, just barely ex- isting on inadequate relief, send a child to school with no shoes or clothes, and suffering from. malnutri- tion? And from where is to come the money to purchase books from rack- eteerinz school boards? Arthur A. Ballantine, under secre- tary of the treasury, review the Hoo- ver program to meet the depression with this statement: “The success of that effort is be- ing reflected ‘today in increased bank reserves, larger bank deposits, the re- turn of gold currency, increased prices of commodities and securities, and, beginning in certain lines, an uptiirn of employment and business activ- ities.” Increased bank reserves and larger bank deposits means, for the workers, more unemployment. Whose bank reserves and bank deposits? Not the workers’, for the workers’ small de- posits were long ago liquidated. These deposits mean for the workers only less money in ,circulation and more unemployment. ‘The return of gold currency meatis nothing te us who see no sign of any currency. Increased prices means that those of us who still get a few dollars will get even less for our small wages, And Mr. Hoover and Mr. Bellantine have seen to it that very few work- ers have any money to buy anything at any price. Can any worker see any sign of an “upturn in business and business ac- tivities?” And Mr. Roosevelt is no different from the republicans in his program. Neither is the Socialist Party. Only the Communist Party shows the workers’ way out of the crisis. MASSES JOIN RED UNIONS IN GERMANY DUSSELDORF.—During the past week over 300 factory workers have joined the Red Trade Union Opposi- tion in Dusseldorf alone because of the revolutionary unions’ resolute struggle against wage cuts, Worker Correspondence “CHILD WELFARE” |LEAD IN STOMACH IS MORE HUNGER |IS HOOVER RELIEF No Move Made to raise | Answers Protest With Chicago Murder CHICAGO, Tll—Hoover recently made the statement that “no man, woman or child shall be without food, clothing or shelter.” The shelter Hoo- ver means is six feet deep in the ground, as she showed to the exser- vicemen and their children, And now, his captain gangster Mayor Cer- mak, with whom he discussed relief a short time ago, gave the same an- swer last Friday at 1701 S. String St., in front of the relief station. ‘The workers there protested against a 50 per cent cut in the miserable relief. The answer was: If you keép your mouth shut, you can die slowly, but to those who don’t want to die of slow starvation, here is the 100 per cent Hoover relief, and BANG, went into one militant worker's stom- ach, right below the heart, a bullet from the pistol of John Touhy, one of Cermak’s case worker. We hope that after the funeral not only our section but all over the U. S. the workers and farmers think well about whom they will vote for, and realize that their only party is the Communist Party. —G. P. Chats with Our Worcorrs Glassford, the police chief of the Capitol, who played the role of an agent provocateur in handling the bonus march last summer, resigned his post saying: “I find myself in the equivocal po- sition of so many other police chiefs in the United States, namely, hold- ing a position of great responsibility, but deprived of the essential author- ity to discharge it without fear or favor.” Glassford, as a tool of the bankers, is not fighting for his own authority alone. He is leading the way to get authority for the police chiefs in the country to stop the organization of the coming Unemployed March, the Bonus March, and the Farmers’ Con- ference, in December. Worker and farmer correspondents throughout the country must take it upon themselves to report all at- tempts to interfere with the success- ful organization of these mass move- ments. It is your job to expose all terror, expose the class character of the police and the courts, and par- ticularly to report all struggles against this terror, WAR PREPARATIONS KEVELAND, Ohio.—That war preparations are going steadily for- ward is indicated in the setting up here of a two-week training school by the medical department of the Fifth Corps Area, United States Army.

The insurgent forces attacked the most important Japanese military | centers in North Manchuria, and suc- cessfully carried out a number of op- erations almost within sight of the} important city of Harbin, harassing | the Japanese forces in Hulan, across | the Sungari River from Harbin. Kill 13 White Guards An insurgent force also derailed a| train on the east line of the Chinese | Eastern Railway, which is being op- erated by the Japanese military over the protests of the Soviet Union which formerly operated the railway Jointly with China. The insurgents killed at least 13 of the Czarist White Guard allies of the Japanese who are being used as guards on the railway. Sixteen carloads of kerosene and five | of benzine, the property of the Soviet | Naptha Syndicate, were destroyed during the fighting. The strength of the insurgent movement in North Manchuria is ad- mitted by the decision of the puppet Manchurian government to establish @ customs station at Fularki, on the border of the region now completely controlled by the insurgents. The move is generally interpreted to in- dicate that the Japanese and their Manchukuo puppets despair of re- conquering the region for, at least, a long time to come. Attempt to Bribe Militarists ‘The Japanese press admits that the militancy of the Manchurian masses together with the geographical and climatic conditions, face the Japan- ese with almost insurmountable dif- ficulties in their drive to crush the national revolutionary movement. The Japanese are reported to be try- ing to effect a “solution” by attempt- ‘INSURGENTS BEAT Union GE iC ARTHUR \ a | Chief of Staff of U. S. Army.

This war reflects the imperial- ist rivalries between the U. S. (Bol- ivia) and England (Paraguay The Bolivian garrison is said to be outnumbered by the Paraguayan at- tacking force. But Bolivia is hasten- ing to strengthen if by sending new troops every day, In governmental circles it is stated that Solivia had shifted to Fort Arce the troops stationed at some small outposts at Yucra, Cabo, Castillo and Ramirez. These posts were later oc- cupied by Paraguay. An official communique denies that ed bribery of those Chinese militar- ists who are at present participating in the national re¥Olutionary move~- ment under the pressure of the masses. U. S. Imperialism Provokes Attack British and American agents are continuing their efforts to egg on the Japanese militarists to an early at- tack on the Soviet. Union by stories of alleged Soviet support for the in- surgent general Hsu Ping-wen, whose forces seized the Manchouli area and are holding some 270 Japanese. The Japanese military authorities have been forced to admit that there is no basis for these anti-Soviet lies, 4 Bolivian infantry regiment was de- stroyed by Paraguayan forces. It ad- mits however that its commander was taken prisoner in an ambuscade. 2 More Dress Strikes Called This Week The Unity Committee of the dress workers {s continuing in its struggle industry. Strikes were called this week at Silver Bell, 127 W. 26th St., ‘| and the S, & S., 253 W. 26th St. for Workers Still Employed in U. S. tion, the 15th anniversary of which In the United States, The New Yok Times, October 12, 19211 reports on the “lrage number of older men that are gainful workers in the United States,” on the basis of the 1930 census figures. Among those “gainfully occupied”, of course, are included business men, profes- sional and other non-working class elements. ‘The bulk of those falling into this category, however, are workers. The census figures reveal that 58.3 per- cent of the male workers over 65 years of age were employed in 1930; that 32 percent—almost one third— of those 75 years old were employed; that 86.8 percent of those from 60 to 64 were employed and that 93 per- cent of those from 55 to 59 were em- ployed. * Among the women, it was found that 266,000 or 8 percent of those 65 old and over, were employed in 1930. These, figures reveal, of course, the large number of workers who be- cause of insecurity are forced to la- bor at an age when they should be retired from their jobs with a pen- sion and security guaranteed. There {s no federal old age pen- sion legislation, The few old age pension laws on the state statute books are utterly inadequate, and the best of them provide the worker with only negii- ! gible protection. In the Soviet Union. | By January, 1930, workers tn the | textile, mining, railway transport, electro-technical, water transport, chemical, printing, tobacco, porce- lain and glass industries were entit- led to old age pensions, according to Joseph Freeman (The Soviet Worker, International Publishers, $1.50). ‘The program of the social insurance or- ganizations calls for extending old age pensions to all wage-earners to- ward the end of the Five-Year Plan Old Age Pension, Security in the USSR U.S. Workers Forced to Slave at the Age of 70; Face Starvation When Unable to Work Census Figures Show Over Half The Workers Are Above 60 Yrs.

This security against misery and hunger is better illustrated by the following, factual comparison showing how workers entering upon old age fare in the Soviet Union and in the United States, (Editor.) . . . to work and who have worked for |hire not less than 25 years, and to women over 55 who have worked not less than 20 years.

The maxi- mum pension is 112 rubles a month.” In addition, “Heroes of labor with a 35-year period of service to their jcredit receive a pension equalling 75 percent of their earnings regardless of their capacity to work or their economic situation.” All these work- ers, during their employment, are en- titled to the other comprehensive so- cial insurance benefits of the Soviet Worker, “Funds for social insurance”, says Freeman, “must be contributed en- tirely by the employers (the state); they must not be imposed upon the insured persons or deducted from their wages.” period,” continues Freeman.

Yesterday's dispatches from South | | America report that 8,000 Colombia | troops are approaching the town | of Leticia which was seized a few months ago by Peruvian irregulars. Two Peruvian transports loaded | with soldiers were also reported on the way to Leticia to reinforce the Peruvian garrison there, With four wars already raging in widely separated parts of the capi- | talist world, with the imperialist pow- | ers arming to the teeth, the munition | makers are holding secret conferences with a view to a further speeding up of war production in preparation for jthe new world war towards which | the capitalists are driving as a cap- italist “way out” of the crisis. (The four wars now going on are: (1) the undeclared war by Japanese imperialism in Manchuria; (2) the Generals War in Szechuan Province, China; (3) the undeclared war be- tween Bolivia and Paraguay in the disputed Gran Chaco region, and (4) the undeclared war reported in to- day’s dispatches as already begun be- tween Columbia and Peru.) During the past few days, repre- sentatives of the British armament firm of Vickers met with represen- tatives of the French armament firm of Schneider-Creusot and its branch firm in Czecho-Slovakia, Skeda. The meeti was held at ienbad, near reste Czecho- akia. It was shrouded with the greatest secrecy, the representatives of the armament firms gathering in the guise of visitors “who sought the efficacies of the far-famed Spa baths,” The staff correspondent of the Vancouver Sun, Vernon McKenzie, reports in a cable to his paper that the meeting has stirred up great hopes among the German munition makers whose manufacture of muni- tions supposedly stopped by the Ver- sailles Treaty but who have been permitted to manufacture war sup- plies for shipment to Japan for use in the murder of Chinese workers, and in the preparation of armed in- tervention against the Soviet Union. Use War Spy. McKenzie further reports that Col. Lawrence, British secret spy who won notoriety for his activities in Arabia during the World War, is “active in British interests on the Chinese side of the India nnorth-west frontier.” Lawrence's activities are connected with the attempt of Tibetan troops to carry out an attack against the Peo- ple ’s Government of Mongolia by a military penetration of China. The People’s Government of Mongolia is a class ally of the Soviet Union. The attack on Mongolia is intended to further extend the imperialist ring around the Soviet Union. One of the purposes of the secret meeting of the leading representa- tives of the British and French ar- mament firms is reported to be “to arrange to apportion and to stimu- late, the Chinese and Tibetan arms import busines: h has grown to considerable proportions during the past twelve months, and promises to be greatly augmented within the near future.” Nanking Plans 3 Arsenals.

It assumes special i portance at the present t. the combined forces of the ca pitali: organizations and city, state and fed- eral government agencies are con- ducting a general attack upon she working class, on the Communist Party and on other militant workers’ organizations. Under the auspices of the Michi- gan Manufacturers, Association, the notorious stoolpigeon Jacob Spolansky has been directing the spying activ- ities in working class organizations in Detroit, and supplying the bosses and the government with information and material for a series of frame- ups and persecutions.
