\\ FISH, NEARING HOLD DEBATE Amusing “But Rather Superficial sPONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Union during this same period of crisis in capitalist countries, cited the League of Nations report to prove the truth of this statement, and said “Communism proposes a system of | Classless society, where every one shall have equal opportunity and get his proper share of all the good things of life, and a chance to enjoy leisure. Task of Proletariat “The ruling class won't establish such a society, the middle class can’t, and the proletariat not only can but carries the chief burden of respon- sibility for doing so.” 3 “What the workers of the Sovict Union have done, you can do.” Fish began, oratorical style, mod- | ulated voice, dramatic gestures, and introduced himself all over again by | ‘reading “boners” about Hamilton | Fish, Jr. in college examination papers. Knows His Socialists Then he said he knew he couldn’t convert the Communists present, but addressed himself to the 15 per cent of Socialists and Liberals present. Repeatedly throughout the debate he proved to them that he and they were united against the dictatorship of the proletariat, and urged them to abandon their pretense of op- Position to capitalism and come out openly for the Republican Party. This at least was realistic, and the crowd’s opinion of Fish obviously Went up. But from that point on, the debate degenerated. Kish Uses Duranty Fish in this and succeeding turns at the debate, made but two points against Communism, such as could require answer. He declared that ‘after 15 years of Communist rule, Soviet Russia should not have a food erisis if Communist rule was any good. He quoted Duranty’s exag- gerated account of the food crisis. Nearing in rebuttal made no ade- quate answer, did not challenge Du- ranty’s figures or give any of the real figures, did not show that what tem- porary difficulties of growth exist, and compare them to the awful mis- ery, poverty and starvation in the world of decaying capitalism, did not » ™ turn back Fish’s argument on cap- italism by asking what good capital- ism is if it has starvation after 150 years of rule. Nearing confined him- self to pointing out that the trend in capitalist production is downward, from high points reached in Eng- Jand in 1896, in Germany in 1910, and in United States in 1920. Even- tually, probably soon, these trends will cross. Neither side considered the possibility of imperialist war, or its effects, The Red Vote Fish’s other main point was the smallness of the radical vote in Am- erica, which, he said, showed the surprising loyalty to American tradi- tions of the American workers. Nearing did not answer this by an description of the skulduggery of the capitalist press, of the repression of free speech, of the arrests of leaders, of the denial of franchise to unem- ployed, of the control of sources of anformation by capitalist agencies, mor even mention that though still small, the Communist movement ad- vances year by year. Nearing only said that where Fish says “loyalty” he would say “ignorance and back- wardness.” He ignored the big increase in the ‘Communist vote this year and the significance election of the first Com- munist mayor in the U. S. in Crosby, Minn. Right To March on Congress Fish was allowed to repeatedly as- sert that Communists had the right | to petition Congress, and that work- ers could strike in America, without any presentation of the evidence to the contrary by Nearing. Fish, with the jail and deportation machinery of the government grind- ing back of his words, challenged , Nearing to say whether Communists believe in overthrowing the govern- ment by force, and whether they fol- lowed the American flag or the red The “Violence” Question Nearing stated that the industries ‘belong to the workers, and they will take them; that history shows that Tuling class permits such a change ithout resort to force, and that the flag represents all that is good ‘and hopeful in human relations, and he is for the Red Flag. A Distortion of Marx ‘Nearing produced a quaint dis- tortion of Marxism, like this: The introduction of machinery laid the basis for the change from feudalism to capitalism; the introduction of automatic machinery lays the basis for the change from capitalism to Communism. He overlooked the whole question of the revolution needed to overthrow the old system of society, Nor did he enter into the question of the con- tradiction between social production and private ownership, as the reason for the modern class struggle, He laid himself wide open for Tish to ask; “Where was the automatic ma- chinery that brought on the Bol- shevik revolution?’ but Fish was too immersed in his native depths to \ think of that question. \ For 15 or 20 minutes Fish forgot ly that he was debating on ommunism, and while the crowd Jistened stupified, he launched into a { tirade against France for noy paying /) the debis! Finally he hooked this up by de- claring that he couldn’t remember ever attacking the Soviet Union for not paying the debt, The real substance of the flood of capitalist, propaganda now, used in by for instance against the Com- munist candidate who won the elec- ton, did not appear in this debate. ‘That propaganda is based on the old “nationalization of women” horror ‘Jes of famine, women eating their children in the Soviet Union, mas- shore of workers, etc. Fish, however he ht clown, was too clever to pr Be up where it might be an. ¥ | | |. Congressman Hamilton Fish, | Jr. pal of the Zarist emigrees, in debate with Scott Nearing said the right of reyolution was guar- anteed American workers. But he “Joathes these marches and dem- onstrations.” Fish Stories ERTAIN bright gems of logic, plucked from the body of Hamil- ton Fish’s discourse are’ herewith set down, in the hope that they will be as amusing to Daily Worker readers as they were to the crowd in Mecca Temple on Friday. “This isn’t the first depression, and it won't be the last, Through sound American principles we will emerge as we did in the past.” ‘(Crowd yells, “How?”). “Tl tell you how. I’m not worried. The American people, led on by the big bankers, gambled and speculated, and the securities sold led to over- production of factories and overpro- duction of real estate, (Our em- phasis D. W.). “We've got to shorten the hcurs; I stand for the five hour day and five day week.” (Crowd shouts: “How | about wages”?) “In the meantime wages will be lower.” (Crowd: “A-a-ahi”). “The best way to destroy Com- munism is to let it's principles be known. Communism stands for destroying all religion and teaching hatred of god.., (Crowd cheers), “It stands for sabotage and riots all over the world.” (Crowd laughs). “Tt stands for dictatorship of the proletariat.” (Crowd applauds). “What I don’t like is these march- es and demonstrations.” “Socialism or Communism might have been all right in Germanygin 1848, where strikes were illegal, but not in free America, where we have the soundest, fairest, wisest, most honorable government, and the best ever devised by the mind of man.” . “The reason I loathe Communism is becaues T loathe all forms of inter- ference with the rights of the people. The Soviet Government took away even the right to worship god from 120,000,000 people. “Walier Duranty is the greatest Communist propagandist in the world.” “If my program had been accepted we could have avoided all the misery of depression, Under state laws, every worker would have life, acci- dent, retirement and pension insur- ance. But I’m opposed to unemploy- ment insurance, because it becomes the foot-ball of politics.” “The rich man is just like the poor man, eventually both must die.” “Capitalism is better because it is the system of all the countries of the world outside of Soviet Russia.” “The Czarist government was over- thrown by the Duma and liberals and Socialists; the German goyern- ment with whom we were at war, sent Lenin into Russia to overthrow ever had,” “Every American has the right of revolution, guaranteed in the Dec- laration of Independence, but we can’t have any revolutions made in Moscow.” CALL ANT-WAR CONGRESS FEB. 28 Held in Montevido Uruguay (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) for such action. It will decide the best practical forms to realize this struggle, It will constitute a great united front gathering of all those who are against war. Its object will be: “To impede the South American war!

The workers there must begin organization at | once into a united front of employed | and unemployed. The form of this organization should be joint committees of action of those already laid off, those being laid off, and those still on the job, around each shop with the following program of struggle: 1—Against wage-cuts and lay-offs. 2—Winter relief of $50.00 for all} laid off and uncmployed.at the ex- pense of the city authorities and the | bosses. 3—Demands for those being laid off, for 3 or 4 week’s full pay in cash at the expense of the employers. If the organization of these comi- | mittes of action is begun immediately | before the cuts take place, and while | the lay-offs are proceeding and if these committees are maintained you | will be laying the basis for a strong {Union and a strong Unemployed | Council, fighting for Unemployment Insurance. Gets Slapped; Is. | Forced to Shell Out | Cicero, Til. Miss Ginsberg, supervisor of the Cicero. Emergency Relief, got her face well slapped last. week by a small Italian woman. The gas and electricity of this family, had been shut off. They were fating eviction, and they had used up all they were allowed by the Cicero budget. The | woman took her several children to the relief station, and Miss Gins- berg told her to get out, and that she could do nothing for her. After the slapping, however, which was heartily applauded by all the workers present, the woman and her seven children were placed in an automobile and driven home in style. They received a $6 supplementary grocery order. Their gas was turned jon. Half their rent was paid, and workers referred them to the Unem- ployed Council as the only power | which could obtain electricity for them, The Unemployed Council suc- ceeded, and lived up to its reputation. ‘Collect from Employed; Sell to Unemployed Stamford, Conn.

We must have the pots on the streets so as to keep our work before the people, We are paying these women $3.00 a day, a very cheap advertizing.” Colonel says: “All right ladies, you may all go out, Let us pray.” So he made a prayer to Jesus ask- ing him to put it into the hearts of the pedple to look towards the pots. ‘There is no weather bad enough. They pray for snow—the women shiver at the pots and the officers think that will make the people give more. “The second night I was fired.

When asked his own re- action, he answered that the march brought him much closer to the rev- olutionary movement and he will de- vote much more energy to help or- ganize the masses.

Defeat Democratic In-| trigues in. U. C. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. Here is more about the Unemploy- ed Council that we are making into @ fighting organization after the democratic organizers sold us out. At a meeting on Nov. 29 about 80 of the 700 jobless in this town at- tended. The president opened up with a talk about selling tickets for shows, dances, etc. The members showed their disgust and demanded that the real issues facing hungry people be brought up. Several work- ers on the county relief then took the floor and told about feeding their babies canned milk and of other starvation conditions here. Now the former Communist can- didates took the floor and pointed out the necessity of organizing a strong unemployed council and go- ing to the county and city officials and demanding work or more relief. This idea was taken up and met. with the approval of every jobless worker at the meeting. A worker suggested that we put Comrade Blume on the committee. Comrade Blume is the Communist. candidate who was previously elect- ed to the committee and then put off by democratic politicians. This was put to a vote and 70 of the workers voted for him, It was then voted on to repeal the by-law barring Communists from the organization. Every worker voted for this repeal. Plans are being made for a demonstration at the city hall or county court house.
