Jack Lippman, a needle worker, was chairman of the meeting, Burt, manager of the fur department of the Needle Trades Workers Indus- trial Union, read the endorsement of the N.T.W.LU. of Amter’s candidacy, which was greeted with cheers and applause. Amter, when he rose to speak, was @hceered for about 15 minutes. He ex- posed the treacherous role of the Socialist Party in the needle trades struggles, and pointed out how the S.

He had been scheduled to arrive today, and employed and unemployed workers were preparing to come in front of the Hotel Astor, where he was sched- uled to be at 8 p.m. tonight, and demonstrate in protest against the Democratic Party program, as shown in its administration of this state and this city. The demonstration tonight is therefore called off. Workers were going to denounce Democratic officials’ clubbing of the Albany hunger marchers and many jobless in New York City, They were coming out in protest against the absence of relief in New York, against strike-breaking injunctions by Tam- many (Democratic Party) magi.

WORKER BY NOVEMBER FIRST! ‘GEORGIA NI Four leading American writers yesterday Joined in issuing state- ments protesting against the inhu- man conditions revealed in John Spivak’s book, “Georgia Nigge' proving that thousands of Negroes in the Black Belt are living under a system of chain gang terror and legalized slavery. The writers are Michael Gold, author of “Jews Without Money,” and one of the editors of the New Masses; Countee Cullen, noted Negro poet; Robert /Morss Lovett, an editor of the New Republic and head of the Depart- ment of English at the University of Chicago; and John Cowper Powys, novelist, lecturer and critic, author of “Wolf Solent”. Gold and Cullen also condemned the campaign of ‘suppression being carried on by the capitalist press of the country against the revelations made by Spivak, which are backed ey. official documents, photo; raphs of tortures and prisoners’ fetter The “Daily Worker” during enea few days has broken through ti conspiracy of silence, in which the. ‘socialist’, the American Federation of Labor and most of the Negro pa- pers joined, and has broadcast among the workers of this: country the startling facts that Spivak has uncoryesn: The “Daily” is also the. only paper in the country which is publishing the statements of these four leading writers. Michael Gold’s statement follows: “John L. Spivak has revealed the ey of millions of “slaves of a road gangs, turpentine co an pinaemee in Georgi Nigger’. He has included photo- graphs of tortures that would shame the Spanish Inquisition, and photo- stat copies of faked death records, where venal doctors cover up the brutal murders committed on the peon farms and chain gangs of the South. “In other words, he has presented real evidence of the most horrible foreed labor in America, But why is there no outcry from the capitalist press?

Moreover, this is only the background of the Socialist Party which, at the present time through its pacifist phrases is ac- | tually helping the capitalists pre- pare the way for a new bloody slaughter. Workers—give your reply to this? Vote Communist on November 8! . 8 8 ORRIS HILLQUIT, national chairman of the Socialist Party and its present candidate for Mayor of New York City, stated over his signature in the New York Times of Feb. 11, 1917 three weeks before President Wilson declared war: “Socialism in the Unite States will not handicap the government by strikes. If the armies are raised by conscription, of course, we will have to serve as other! citizens. I do not believe that the Socialists will advocate any general indus- trial strike to handicap the coun- try in its war preparations, and I do not believe there will be any such strike.” Mayor Hoan of Milwaukee was out in front in preparing the registra- tion for the draft. Just as Hillquit assured Wall Street and its govern- ment in advance that there would be no resistance by the Socialist Party, so Mayor Hoan did not wait for June 5, registration day, to pledge his support. On May 29, 1917, the Milwaukee Leader stated; “Mayor Hoan announced Satur- day, 8 p. m. he would be in a posi- tion to wire Governor Phillips that everything is in readiness for the registration.” Abraham Cahan, editor of the Jewish Daily Forward, the most influential Socialist Party paper in the United States, announcesd in an interview published in the New York Sun, Oct. 8, 1917: “It has been my policy for 35 years that once a law is passed During this election campaign the Socialist Party is constantly referring to its “anti- What is this record?

Of course, we are pacifists, but far from oppos- ing the draft law, we have es- tablished a paid bureau of in- formation, under my personal su- pervision, for the purpose of ex- plaining the law and teaching obedience to it, and that bureau has served from 500 to 700 a day. ‘There are 1,000 of our boys at Camp Upton now, and many of them have written us regarding the law. Our reply has invariably been: ‘You are an American sol- dier, Be a good one.’ ‘Suppress your views if they don’t agree with | the views of your country, I tell | them.” The Milwaukee Leader declared, following the declaration of war, on April 6: “The Socialists are loyal today: loyal they have ever been, and loyal they will remain.” But Victor Berger and the Mil- waukee Leader had not waited for American entry into the World War to protect the billions of Wall St.| loans. to the allied governments in order to declare loyalty to and sup- port of American imperialist aims. As early as 1915 the Milwaukee Leader and Berger were calling for | the conquest and annexation of Mexico. It was.a “perfervid illusion,” said the Milwaukee Leader, to believe that “American intervention can and must be prevented.” It con- tinued to boost “Black Jack” Per- shing as the organizer of Mexican workers for the American Socialist Party: “If Mexico is annexed, the Mex- jean people will lose their national independence, but they gain ad- mission to the American labor movement ang the American So- cialist Party.” Decking out imperialist war in the | tawdry tinsel of social-patriotism is | the particular job of the Socialist Party and its press. It did not fail Wall Street imperialism in 1917. Imperialist slaughter was in. itself | Hillquit’s @ constructive step to t goal the Milwaukee Leader laimed one day before the tion of war. “When the conditions necessary to prosecute the war with any success shall be established, we shall have established the ground- work for better conditions of peace. There will be no return to the old order, once we shall have started on the path of collective activities . . . . A people welded in the hot fires of the world’s war proc- | | to common purposes will not will- ingly return to the individualism of ‘Every one for himself and the devil take the hindmost.’” This was the American Socialist Party translation of Lloyd George slogan: “A land fit for heroes to livet” | Meyer London, the only Socialist ‘in Congress, supported the Liberty | Loans. In the New York Times of April 122, 1918, he said: “The government of the United States having called upon the people for a loan, there would be no better way of helping the ene- my than to refuse that loan.” This partial record of Socialist | Party support of American imper- ialism in the World, War can close} with another quotation from Morris article in the New York 11, 1917: “The Socialist. attitude has alw been this—to oppose war regardie: Times, February of circumstances, and when war did | come in such countries as were in- vadeq or in real danger of invasicn, to. go to the defense of the country as has happened in France and Germany and Austria.” “And,” Mr. Hillquit might have added prophetically,’ in the United States. ‘ The left wing of the Socialist Party of America, which opposed the official leaders and Wall Street’s war, uniting later with other re- volutionary sections of the working class, formed the Communist Party of the United States in 1919.

A doc- ument such as Spivak’s must be tak- en up by the workers and broadcast until this shame stinks to the heav- ens. These Negro slaves will find no other fighters for their freedom than the revolutionary working class. Every other group is too busy saving its respectability, and its div- idends. ‘Georgia Nigger’ is a symbol of the whole capitalist crime against the Negro people. It proves the cor- rectness of the demand voiced in the Communist election program for equal rights for Negroes and self- determination in the Black Belt.

Both marchers are against cut- ting off of relief, both demand real unemployment insurance and win- ter relief. The march in U.S.A. de- mands $50 winter relief to supple- ment local relief. In line with its recent congress and jits attempts to once more pose as a patty fighting for the workers, the British Labor Party members of Par- jllament yesterday opened an attack jon the MacDonald government charging it with throwing a million unemployed workers off the dole bv the Means Test, which provides that anyone getting a dole must prove he has no savings, no means of sup- port whatever, Laborites Cut Dole MacDonald threw back the ac- cusation of dole cutting, pointing ovt that the Labor Party through the old Labor Party cabinet, in which were both MacDonald and Lansbury who now moves “non-confidence” in the MacDonald government, made the first slash in the dole by means of the “anomalies bill,” which was along the lines of the later Means |Test act Lansbury Admits Charge True And so far was Lansbury from denying his share in slashing relief that he shouted back: “I am not such a contemptible skunk as to want to get out of it!” American readers should remem- ber that the Labor Party is @ brother party of the American So- cialist Party, and the Labor Party’s recent congress was lauded to the skies in the New Leader, organ of | the Socialists here.
