(By Ra-| dio)—Under_ the headline, “The Shock Brigade Worker—! the Central Figure in the Five- Year Plan,” Izvestia, organ of the Soviet government, carries an| editorial showing the tremendous his-| toric role of the hundreds of thou- sands of members of the factory and erm shock brigades (group of toilers who voluntarily increase speed of so- clalist production) The editorial states: “Having successfully accomplished the program of the first Five-Year Plan in four years, the Soviet Union dedicates the first day of. the second five-year program for the construction of a classless society to the advanced worker of socialist pro- duction—the shock worker.

Plan in Jan. MOSCOW, 2 (By Ra- | dio)—Among the millions of Soviet shock brigaders who celebrated Jan. 1, Udarnik (shock: brigader) Day, an hon- orable place was occupied by many | foreign workers and specialists, Am- ericans, Germans, English, etc. In | the course of the four years of he- roic struggle for the Five-Year Plan they have absorbed the spirit of the Soviet Workers and have learned to identify their own interests with those of the factory and the tasks of socialist construction. In many industrial centers foreign shock brigaders play a prominent role in production. Led by Mor Hauf, American shock worker and as- | sistant chief of production methods | of the Bureau of Foreign Shock Brig- aders at the Electrozavod plant in Moscow, they have succeeded in es- tablishing an experimental workshop of the most modern type, where they have developed a number of valuable inventons and rationalization meth- ods. In the Dzerzhinski locomotive repair shop at Voronezh foreign | workers plugged hard and showed | the proper tempo in applying meth- ods used in American shops. ‘The rationalization proposals of 386 foreign shock brigaders in Leningrad, of 146 at the Kharkov tractor plant clelisis In Voronezh, Stalingrand, | Kuznetsk, Dmieprostroy, etc. have brought about large economies in| In Leningrand alone | production. 950,000 rubles have been saved during the last three months. ‘Thomas Monger, of the Hammer and Sickle steel mll in Moscow, Frank Honey, of the Stalingrand tractor works, George MacDowell, of the Verblud State Farm, German inventor, the foreign advis- ers at the Dnieprostroy power sta- tion and a number of others have | been given the highest awards, the for notable work in building Soviet industry and agriculture and in transfering their experience to So- viet workers. The enthusiasm animating many } foreign workers and specialists is best | degerlbed by quoting Frank Honey's letter in the Moscow Daily News: “I have tried to do my utmost to help the “tussian workers and peas- anis finish the first Five-Year Plan in four years and will do my utmost in the second Five-Year Plan.” O’Brien the Trickiest and Most Experienced of Tammany’s Stalwarts; Murphy’s Messenger : In Long Career Raised By JAMES CASEY NEW YORK.—The most famous bootlicker in Tammany’s long history today officially begins his duties as Mayor of New York City. At the in- duction ceremony of John O’Brien early today will be the leading poli- tical grafters and many office- |holding henchmen. And in their, presence, O'Brien will pledge solemnly | to retain the Tammany crooks in} | office and observe to a letter all the| decrees of the mightiest banking group in the world. O'Brien's political career already is | dotted with deliberate and abomin- able crimes against the working class. From the time of affiliating himself with Tammany thirty-five years ago, O'Brien began to win the steady favor and admiration of the Political | bosses for his adroit il in pro- | teeting the interests of the plunderers | and combatting the protests and or- ganized ,moyements of the workers. Republican Too! So astutely had he carried order after order of the Wall Street barons that ten years ago the major poll- tical wings of American capitalism— the Democrats and Republicans— broke all party lines to back him as a candidate for high public office. ‘This is a cold fact which today the capitalist and social-fascist news- papers—from the New York Times down to the yellow New Leader—take care to conceal from the workers. Murphy’s Go-Between O'Brien first came to the public limelight during the administration of John F, Hylan, The Democratic boss of that time, the late Charles F. Murphy, needed a loyal, servant to convey his instructions” from the Tammany wigwam to the Mayor in City Hall. Of all the party faithfuls at his command, Murphy singled out O'Brien as just the man for this job.

Five hundred experts in American government, try, commerce and culture have labored for three years. They have discovered, although | the report does not specifically so state, that American capitalism is | bankrupt. Their most important finding, couched in the stilted academic Jan- guage of »rofessional “experts,” is| as follows: “Unless there is a speeding up of social invention or a slowing down of mechanical inventions, grave mal- adjustments are certain to result,” ‘This statement alone is a confes-j{ sion in guarded form that American capitalism has failed to solve that very contradiction which it claimed to have solved in the extensive liter- ature of the boom period previous tO 1929. “Grave Maladjustments” are nothing more or less than a phrase | of capitalists “experts” for the result of contradictions capitalism cannot solve.

Commissioner Geraghty sent cops and dicks to ‘greet’ the delegation. They forcibly put W. Ruyter, the spokesman, out of the building. Com- missioner Geraghty showed plainly that he did not want to hear the story of how the sharks are brutally Tobbing the jobless.
