This development was achiev- ed under the leadership of the Com- munist Party of Lenin anq Stalin, whose portraits appeared in the cen- ter of the long building opposite the Lenin Mausoleum, Army of Working-Class Defense The parade of the Red Army was itriking not so much for the military Gisclay as in the nature of the armed nefense of the workers and peasants | revublic; there was a complete ab- senve of glittering uniforms and of Gistincticns between the officers,and the men with a oneness in the ap- Tearance of the facial expressions and many slogans of the rank and file cefenders and builders of Socialist | sostety. , The feature of the military parade wes the predominance of non-uni- formed columns, of armed workers and veterans of the Red Guard who} ught in the Civil War acuinst the Weritalists and the counter-revolu- “onaries organized by the foreign im- erialists. Convincing evidence of the identity of the Red Army with the | Soviet mosses was the presence of | over one million toilers in the parade. | Every plant and factory has its owa| contingent of the army including} women. | Against Imnerialist War The masses and the workers, like the | Red Army, carried their own slogans against imperialist war, for the strengthening ang develoning of the rule of the toilers and the Socialist basis. The whole military parade was imposing evidence of the readiness of the workers and peasants of the Soviet Union to defend their achievements and their fight to continue the building of Socialism. The parade of the workers from the | plants and factories and the em- ployees of the institutions was even more spectacular. Endless streams of workers’ columns filling the Red Sauare with banners, emblems, nlac- ards and floats with unsurpassed maginificent color, galvanizing spec- proud declarations | ‘Fbicvements attained, solemn pledges | further achievements in the Second ive Year Plan was a veritable raen ot vraise for working-class rule. The entire contents of workers’ rule was emblazened and concertized in these banners and placards, Every Factory in March Every factory, every department, had its brigade marching with the records of its achievements in the fulfillment and often the over-fulfill- ment of the first Five Year Plan. These records were proudly displayed with pictures, legends and figures. It is evident that the Soviet factory is noi merely a-unit*of the production of gwds, but also a unit of social or- ganivatioN concerned with the ma- terial and cultural welfare of the masses, Records of the accomplishments in education, production of food and ar- ticles in daily use from by-products were proudly and prominently dis- Played by each factory brigade. ~ _ The greatest heroism was expressed the achievements of labor, the atest respect paid to the heroes of bor. ““Udarnik” (shock worker) was fe biggest and most cherished title displayed. Many factories carried large photographs of their “udarnika” alongside of placards expressing con- tempt for the shirkers and loafers.

The| order enumerates ~ tremendous | achizvements and successes of the Soviet Union during its 15 years of | existence, proceeding as follows: “The class enemy within the coun- try is not yet completely extermin- | ated and resolutely resists the so-| cialist offensive of the proletariat.

During the entire fifteen yeats the Red Army faithfully and devotedly served: the toiling people.

Emphasizing the necessity of even greater and more intensive work to- wards assimilating fighting technique and Marxian-Leninist Bolshevist ed- ucation in the Red Army ranks, the order concludes: “Comrades, Red Army Men, Comamnders and _polit- ical workers, may the great cause of Marx, Engels and Lenin strength- en and win.

Every time one of these boats come into port there are about two or three hundred Negroes standing on the dock waiting to get a job. 10 Cents an Hour But the boss needs only 75 or 80 men, and they are paid as low as 10 cents an hour, and there is only actually four hours of unloading. These bananas have to be carried from the ship to the dock. There is no unloading machine in Tompa, so that they have a docked about every 20 feet, from the ship to the cars. and a long line of Negroes practically running and not allowed to drop out. If one should slow down he will get a swift kick by one of the checkers. These checkers get about 10 cents an hour more for doing this work. Cripple Negro Child In the meantime, while this is going on, little half-starved Negro children dart in and under the cars picking up fallen bananas. I have seen a checker kick a Negro child off the dock and into the bay. He swam ashore alright, but he is erip- pled for life from the kick he re- ceived.

J, Delegate 102, M.W.LU, Fight Pay Cut on ‘West Kebar’ in N.Y. Unity of All Seamen Could Have Won Fight NEW YORK HARBOR.—Two men sent aboard the West Kebar at 8 o'clock one night last week walked off when they heard the ship was struck, The Malaria liner, which had heaved her hook and started down the bay, was forced to drop anchor again off Stapleton. The men were shipped from that famous crimping joint the “Dog House,” with assurances that there was no trouble aboard the ship. When they got there they were told that there was a strike aboard, that the Filipino gang haq walked off over a $15 wage-cut. They wouldn’t sign the articles and were sent back ashore. Men Refuse to Take Cut. The strike came on the West Ke- bar when the seven Filipinos, oilers, firemen and wipers, refused to take @ heavy cut. It would have brought the wages down to $30 for wiper, $37.50 for firemen and $42.50 for oil- ers a month at the same time the deck wages were cut to $40 for A.B.’s. The white men in the deck gang accepted the cut without a murmur. Several of them have been on the Kebar over a year and a half, and one has been aboard two years. The Filipinos remained aboard on strike till they were thrown off the ship, then reported to the Marine Workers’ Industrial Union, which sent out a picket line and spread the story of the strike over the water- front. The Seamen’s Church Institute, which gets $5,000 a year from Bar- ber, the head of the Malaria Line, true to their scabby reputation, told men that there was no strike aboard, that the company was merely re- placing the Filipinos to “give the white seamen work.” They sup- pressed e story of the wage-cut and walk-off. Six men were sent from the In- stitute. When they heard the true story at the picket line, five of these men threw away the slips from the Dog House crimp and went back to town. Only one still wanted toscab. He sneaked around the maze of Erie Basin and finally got aboard. At night he slept with a bolo un- der his pillow for “them reds might get aboard the ship during the night, and you can never tell what them reds will do.” ‘The other firemen aboard went on the passes thrown away by the men sent from the Dog use. Ship Tied Up. * Just as the ship was ready to let go her lines, the four men piled off, and she was tied up again. A Ma- rine Workers’ Industrial Union dele- gate walked over to the port engi- neer and said: “Now if you want a crew for your fire-room and engine- room, all you have to do is to take back the wage-cut, and you can have your original crew.” The port ~ tain refused. “Then you won't thé crew,” said the delegate. At eleven o'clock she was still lying in the stream, off Stapleton, elmost twelve hours late.

W.T. U. NEW ORLEANS.—In spreading | literature around New Orleans I find the marine workers sympathetic to the Marine Workers Industrial Union. I made a speech-in the Shipping Board office a while ago and was well received by the men, but the shipping master told me that {f I didn’t keep my mouth shut I'd visit the new House of Detention on Tulane St. I asked the shipping master if there was any harm in giving marine workers the truth about the conditions on ships in New Orleans. He said there was no harm it in, but to tell them about it on the streets, not in the Shipping Board. I spread @ lot of literature in the shipping board and called a meeting in the union hall. Got a big response. Sympathy is strong among the dock workers and New Orleans has good Prospects for organization work this winter. ‘The Moore MacCormack line out of here pays $45 and no overtime. The seamen have to drive winches in port. They need organization there. The Bull line is using the same tactics. The M. W. I. U. longshoremen’s hall is getting big crowds and good results among the Negro longshore- men. We have made demands and gotten some recognition. The banana boats here pay 25 cents an hour. In Galveston they pay 20 jcents and only get one boat a week, two the next. The cracker bosses drive hell out of them, and they dis- charge a boat in 4 to 6 hours. Delegate No, 158, M.W.L.U.

He suggests that white workers come to their houses and speak to them and sell them class struggle literature and tell them how the union fights for their rights. He also urges that workers from the North send organizing forces to the South to help in this work, Marine | workers who are combing the coast in their search for work can give a hand in this work in the South. We would like to hear from this writer ang other workers just what the Marine Workers Industrial Union is doing among the Negro dockers suffering these vicious conditions. . P eit ‘The letter frm othe Marine Worker | in New Orleans is actually a com- bination of conditions and report on organizational activities. The letter | manifests a real understanding of | the part of the marine worker that agitational activities must be com- bined with actual fighting in the in- terest of the workers. This was proven in his*making a talk in the shipping board office. Here he did not lose himself but kept on in spite of intimidation to fight for the right of workers to know the truth of conditions. This approach of the worker to organization agitation should be studied by other workers who are active among unorganized workers and also in cases where the organization is controlled by the A. F. of L. misleaders. The results of their activities should be the property Of all workers through the columns of the Daily Worker, the fighting organ of the whole working class. On all of these conditions right now these workers should link up with the National Hunger March and try to get unorganized workers to send delegates to the nearest preliminary conference and directly to Washing- ton where there is not. Parson Threatens Jailing Seaman in Savannah Mission SAVANNAH, Ga—Conditions are very bad in Savanah. You can’t get aboard a ship to look for a job with- out being chased around the cracked watchmen. If you get aboard and ome ashore again, they frisk you if you try to board the ship again. Longshoremen are being paid 25 to 30 cents an hour. The Union is needed very badly down here.

Facts show that in semi-colonies such as China the So- viet power alone is capable of lib- erating the toilers from oppression, and exploitation by the national bour- geoisie, landlords and imperialists. China's Soviet Government fights for national liberation and independence of China, and leads and organizes the toiling masses in national, re- volutionary war against occupation by Japanese imperialism of Manchuria and Mongolia, and against interven~ tion in USSR by world imperialism.” German Workers Greet Soviet Union In behalf of the German revo- lutionary proletariat, the toilers of the Soviet’ Union, shock troops of the world proletariat were greeted by Thaelmann.
