A variation of this is where the Filipino boss | takes the Filipino worker. into his | | own home, and segregates him there, | to be handed over to the Filipino employment agency when wanted. To | keep the worker penniless and in control, they sometimes run gam- bling games in the private apart- ments The Filipino workers chiefly sub- jected to this “crimp” system are those who work on merchant ships. ‘The American dance hall owners around 34th Street and Third Ave- nue, and 28th Street and Sixth Ave- nue, keep in touch with the Filipino netty bourveois, and the lonely and helpless Filivino worker is steered down there to be shorn of his money whenever he has any Jeft. Lack of social equality for the Filloino work- er and racial barriers of all sorts help to keep him in control and make him an easier victim. Even places of recrea‘ion fer American sailors often har out the Filipino seamen and drive him into the traps set by American and Filivino resort owners. Must Have Club House One of the first things to be done is, that the Filivino Anti-Imperialist League should establish a club house where the Filipino workers can meet, out of the grip of those who prey on them.

HEADS EXPOSED AS PALS OF GANGSTER CAPONE Offered to Guarantee William Green Would Help Judge If He Gave Light Sentences CHICAGO, Il.—Former Attorney-General Edward J. Brundage, a re- publican, recently issued a statement, which was published in the “Chicago Tribune”, declaring that leaders of the Chicago Federation of Labor have been associated with Al Capone. General Brundage declared: “Capone came to my office at 110 S, Dearborn. dilinois State Senator, repub- @——-— tella lican, member of the Al Capone’ ma- chine), Oscar Nelson, (Alderman 46th Ward, vice-chairman of the Chica- go Federation of Labor), Pat Sulli- van of the Chicago Building Trades Council, and Jerry Horan of the Flat Janitors Union. “They said they had heard that Judge Wilkinson intended inflicting a heavy sentence upon Capone.” The purpose of the meeting, ac- cording to the statement of Brun- dage, was to obtain a light sentence for Capone, and if such could have been agreed upon, then, according to Brundage’s statement, the A. F. L. would not object to Wilkinson being a judge in the Circuit Court of Ap- peals, Brundage declared: “I asked this group in my office if they were guaranteeing that William Green, president of the AF.L., would not oppose confirmation.

Oscar Nelson, denying that he is a Capone man, confirms, however, the fact that he was present with the Capone men in Brundage’s of- fice, declaring: “I suppose that Seritella called for Sullivan, Horan and myself to create an impression on Mr..Brundage- that he and Capone had friends in the A. al) Of Lr Class Composition of New Congress (By Labor Research Assn.) SUBSTANTIAL majority of democrats will make up the 73d Congress of the United States. There are now 59 democratic sen- ators and 312 representatives, as against 36 republican senators and 153 representatives. Does that materially change the class com- position of the Senate and the House of Representatives? Not in the least. First, a brief review of the com- position of the 72nd Congress just ended. Of the 96 senators and 435 representatives then in Washing- ton, approximately 140 were in the cless of business men, coal mine operators, banke:s, industrialists and manufacturers, live stock rais- JOSEPH T. ROBINSON ers, owners of large farms, build- ing contractors. etc. They were themselves exploiters of every shade, a fair cross section of Amer- ican capitalists; some big and some petty. The largest group—the 270 law- yers—was made up in the main of those whose work was in connec- T heir Connections, Interests Described in This Article the new Congress has been pub- lished with biographical data on all new congressmen. Material on the business con- nections of lawyers is, in many cases, entirely inaccesible, but the following few examples will suffice to show the intricate relationships between big business and the law- yers who as a Class are merely the footmen and office boys of capital. John N, Garner, of Texas, who is relinquishing his position as Speaker of the House to become Roosevelt's vice-president, is a law- yer and has controlling interests in two banks. McADOO ON PETROLEUM COMPANY BOARD The leading Democratic politl- cian, Wm. Gibbs McAdoo, recently elected to the Senate from Cali- fornia, practices law in Los An- geles and Washington, and is sen- jor partner of the law firm of Mc- Adoo, Neblett & Clagett. He holds & directorship in the Jameson Pe- troleum Co., and represents big corporations in his law practice. Alva B. Adams, Senator from Colorado, is a partner in Adams & Gast, Pueblo, Colo. He is also president and director of the Pueblo Savings & Trust Co., vice- president and director of the West- ern National Bank, vice-president of King Fruit Co., and director in several other firnis. One of the Senators from Lou! ana is John Holmes Overton, part- ner in Overton & Hunter, Alexan- dria, Le. Overton is president and director of the Rapides Building & Loan Assn. He holds director- ships in the Commercial Bank & Trust Co., Security Mortgage Co, of Louisiana, Inc., and Insurance Securities, Inc.

They are the framers of the big army and navy appropriation bills. The remaining 98 Congress- men who were in the 72nd Con- gress, could be classified in the miscellaneous group — professional politicians, small town newspaper men, “educators” and perennial of- fice holders. . E come now to the present members of Congress, a partial list of whom follows. A complete list will be obtainable only after the Congressional Pirectory for Here, also, is J. H. Bankhead, Senator from Alabama, a member of the firm of Bankhead & Bank- head, attorneys for the “Frisco” and Southern railroads, the First National Bank, the Alabama By- Products Corp., S'oss-Sheffleld Steel & Iron Co., Indien Bead Mills, Manchester Saw Mills, Gal- Toway Coal Co., Brilliant Coal Co., Te Bardeleben Coal Co., Pratt Fuel Co., some of these amon the big- gest corporations in the South. Then there is James F. Byrnes (S.) of Spartanburg, 8. C., of the firm of Nicholls, Wyche & Byrnes, attorneys for the Merchants and Farmers Bank, Charleston and Western Carolina Railroad, and of the Piedmont & Northern Raflroad. Another typical representative of capital is M. M. Neely, Senator from Fairmont, West Virginia, whose firm, Neely and Lively, is counsel for the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, Bethlehem Mines Co. (subsidiary of Bethlehem Steel Corp.) Fairmont State Bank, and other banks and industrial com- panies. Then take the Democratic floor leader of the Senate, Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas, of the law firm of Robinson, House and Moses of Little Rock. Robinson’s part- ner, House, is director of the Louis- jana & Arkansas Railway Co.— subsidiary of the Morgan-run Ele tric Bond & Share Co., of New York—and director of the Bankers Trust Co. of Little Rock. Robin- son's law firm handles the legal business of four power companies operated by Morgan's Electric Bond & Share Co, These companies are all headed by Harvey C. Couch, JOHN N. Utility boss in the GARNER lower Mississippi valley, As a result Couch te Robinson what to do in Washin ton, where Couch now also o cupies an important post as direc- tor of the Reconstruction Finance Corp. A similar story almost every one could be told for of the lawyers in the House and Senate. Al- though not listing themselves in the Congressional Directory as capitalists or directors of corpora- tions, most of these attorneys are the direct agents ef big business and handle its legal as well as po- litical work of all kinds, —— ALL OUT FOR DAILY WORKER TAG DAYS FOR SATURDAY SUNDAY, MARCH 11 AND 12 Up to now, New York has been the mainstay of the Daily Worker Drive for 335,000 to save it from suspension.

This marks the 24th successful strike led by the union. Demands won by these workers included a 20 per cent increase in wages, reduc- tion of hours from 48 to 44, equal di- vision of work, no discrimination and unemployment insurance. In the meantime, nine workers of the Japanese Silk Underwear Co., declared a strike and now expect support from other workers in the shop. Applaud Worker’s Speech in Court NEW YORK. — Lena Rosenberg, tried with ten other workers in a Brooklyn court Friday for demon- strating before a Home Relief station, was wildly applauded by a large audience of workers when, in a mili- tant self-defense speech, she exposed the rottenness of capitalism and called on all workers to organize against the bosses. She was acquitted on a charge of assault and given a suspended sen- tence on a charge of disorderly con- duct. At the same trial, Harry Gatton was given five days in the workhouse by Judve Mark Rudick, who told this worker that he had no right to help workers secure relief, when Gat- ton stated thet he had demonstrated ‘or all workers. The remaining nine were acquitted, among them Cesar Vesecio, whose sick baby died after he had been refused relief. Defended by David Schriftman, attorney for the New York District, I. L. D., the workers in their testi- mony exposed the hostile attitude f Supervisor Mallon of the Home Relief Bureau against members of the working class. More Workers Join ‘PrettyLaundry’ Strike NEW YORK.—In solidarity with the workers who had gone on strike February 27 under the leadership of the Laundry Workers Industrial Union, against the fourth wage cut, a number of workers who had been intimidated by the boss of the Pretty Laundry, 585 Eagle Avenue, Bronx, have defied the boss and joined the strike, , in which many workers of jJaundries joined.

Price 5 cents. Reviewel by “Ww ‘PHELPS. years after the in the midst of the copitalism has yet volutionary prole- world commemorates work of the founder k ‘oduce he tariat of the the life and of Socialism. Unlike the blind and formal geoisie W tributes which the bour- pays to its heroes (like hhington and Lincoln), our cel- ebration is a chapter in the history ot Marxism. The Soviet Union and the Communist Parties are in part | the work of K: Marx. On this occasion the Communist | Party of the United States is is- suing a pamphlet entitled Karl Marx—188:-1933, containing short articles by Max Bedacht, Sam Don, and Earl Browder. The pamphlet is not only an exposition of the ba- sic principles of Marxism-Leninism, but it is also an illustration of one of the most important of these | principles, the unity of theory and practice. TRACES HISTORY OF MARXISM. The ps begins with a sketch by Max Bedacht of the life and work of Karl Marx. Bedacht traces the development of Marx ideas from his early struggles against Hegelian idealism and petty bourgeois, utopian social- ism to achievement, “Capital,” yolume of which was published in 1867. In 1847 Marx and Engels wrote “The Communist Manifesto,” which remains the fundamental historic document of the Commu- nist philosophy. Bedacht then traces the distor- tion of Marx’s ideas, principally on the question of the Paris Com- mune and the revolutionary dicr tatorship of the proletariat by Kautsky, one of the leaders of Ger- Day has been designated as a day of} man social democracy. In “State and Revolution” Len- in lashed Kautsky for his falsifi- cation, and focused the attention of the working class once more on Marx's definition of the state as the tool of the bourgeoisie for the suppression of the working class, Lenin also restored Marx’s analy- sis of the method of transition to socialism: through the seizure of political power and the setting up of a dictatorship by the proletariat. ANALYZE CAPITALIST cu RES, There follows two short articles entitled “Communists only ad- herents of teachings of Marx and all in the name of Marxism, by Sam Don, in which he analyzes some of the cures which have been offered for capitalist ills He shows how Technocrasy tries to blind the questioning workers and _ petty bourgeoisie by divoreing distribu- tion from the mode of production, that is, from capitalism, ignoring the Marxist analysis of crises, put very compactly by Engels as “The mode of production rises in rebel- lion against the form of exchange.” Don then describes the many forms of revisionism which have been of- fered as “true” Marxism, A systematic revision of Marx- death ot | his crowning theoretical | the first | ism has been made by the socialist parties united in the Second Inter- | national. In their hands Marxism | 4s deformed into a pale program of | reformism and “peaceful” transi- tion to socialism, which in practice becomes a program of peaceful ac- of capitalist wage-slash- hunger, and police brutalit; ing, In times of crisis the socialist par- ty takes on a more radical, more Marxist (though never revolution- ary) complexion to exploit the rad- | ical demands of the workers. | Finally the pamphlet contains | two brief studies of theory and practiae: one by Warl Browder, en- titled “Theory is Our Guide to Action,” and the other by Sam Don | under the tile, “Relation of Theory | to Practice.” Browder shows that | theory is our guide to action, since Marxist theory is that understand~- | ing of the world which implies a systematic change of the world. The very theory itself arises from | our active transformation of the | world. It does not drop “as the gen- tle rain from heaven.” | NOT DOGMATISM. Browder points out that the un yielding adherence of the Commu- | nist movement to Marxism-Lenin- ism is not dogmatism and sectar- janism. It is a necessary condi- tion for elimination of reactionary | theories from working class activi- | ty. The struggie to achieve this may be seen in the development of the Workers Schcwol, in the work of freeing it from Trotskyite and Lovestone influence. The school is the embodiment of Marx's slogan, | “An idea becomes power when it is seized upon by the masses.” In “Relation of Theory to Prac- tice,” Sam Don further amplifies the interrelation of the two. He quotes and explains Marx’s way of stating this relationship, “That as philosophy finds in the working class its material weapon, the working class finds in philosophy its ideological weapon.” | HOW RELATIONSHIP WORKS OUT Don goes on to show that the practical meaning of this relation- ship lies in the work of the Com- munist International today. The analyses and the line of the Com- munist International are theoreti- cal guides to contemporary (even | day to day) problems to the adtiv- | ity of party workers. Stalin stated this very aptly when he said that theory without action is empty, and action without theory is blind, Not only was Marx's system based on the interrelation of theory and practice, but his very life was an exemplification of this interre- | lation. He helped found the First International, and he was con- | stantly working with workmen's | groups. The bourgeois govern- | ments rewarded him for this by driving him from gountry to coun- try. Social democrats are rewarded for their activity by police escorts. As Engels said at the grave of his life-long friend and co-worker, | “Marx was above all a revolution- ist.” AMUSE MENTS Rene Clair’ s oo Under the Roofs of Paris or “SOUS LES mere DE PARIS” —Alse— Unemployment Rellet Demonstrations WORKERS Acme Theatre 14TH ST.
