In the report to the Convention, the State Secretary of the Socialist Party, Mr. Ben Larks, proposed to split the | Unemployed Councils. In his written report, submitied to the Convention, he declared: “Many of our comrades thruout the state have become active spirit ‘n the organization and mainten- ce of unemployed organization, dit flue to the fact that no general atate-wide policy was formulated on this question, the majority of the groups have been called “Un- employed Councils.” Many of our comrades find themselves members of a local unemployed organization which is affillated with a National | Unemployed movement actively fighting against their own Social- ist Party.” Want To Split Unemployed Councils This statement of Mr. Ben Larks| definitely proves the fact that the| Unemployed Councils embrace all kinds of workers, including members of the Socialist Party who actively participate in the struggles of the unemployed, which is particularly {rue in the mining towns. This form of united front struggle and activity, | as expressed in the Unemployed Councils, is against the principles of the State Executive Committee of the Socialist Party and therefore, the strike-breaker, Mr. Ben Larks, recom- mended to the State Convention, the following: “That the Convention go on re- cord as instructing the members of the Socialist Party wherever they are members of unemployed coun- cils to do the following: (a) Change the name if at all possible (Unemployed League). (b} Immediately dis-affiliate the | “councils,” etc. from the National | ‘Unemployed Councils (Communist). | (c) Failing the latter, to im mediately withdraw as members of | that group and set up a new group.” This recommendation of Mr. Ben rks is a definite act of a strike- aker and enemy of the unemploy~ ed and an 4 of one who stands in the way oi > ilding organization of | wnemployed wich embraces masses | ef workers, regardless of their poli- tical affiliations.

Dr, Green declared: “He shall | not be heard.” That is, Mooney is not to be heard at the Socialist Party Convention. This goes hand in hand with the whole history of the Socialist Party in struggle for freedom of Mooney, that is, against the freedom of} Mooney. It is the Socialist Party! that expelled Tom Mooney from the Executive Committee of the Social- ist Party when he was arrested on | fratte-up charges. As to a telegram direct from | Mooney to the Convention, calling | upon delegates to come to the Free} | Mooney Congress, the Convention de-! cided to put the telegram on file. All these acts were committed on April 22nd. The “Chicago Tribune” in a column | “16 Years Ago” carries the following: “PETROGRAD. — The American Embassy was threatened with at- tack by a mob of radical Socialists, | incited by Nikolai Lenin. A crowd which gathered at Nevsky Prospect late on the nite of April 22nd, | started for the Embassy, but mili- | tiamen dispersed them before they | hurled missiles at the soldiers. Lenin harangued the crowd, brand- ing America an enemy of Socialism, for a decision to hang a Socialist mamed Mooney at San Francisco.” Sixteen years ago the Petrograd) workers, led by Lenin, raised their | voice of protest against hanging of | Mooney and the echo of it was heard | around the world and saved Mooney from the gallows. Sixteen years later | the leaders of the Socialist Party in| the State of Illinois declared that Mooney will not be heard. This is in line with the decision of Governor Rolph who declared: “The Mooney case is closed.” But the Mooney case is “not closed,” | neither is he “not heard!” Mooney's ringing call for wity will) break thru the wall built by the! Greens, Wolls, Hillquits, Fitzpatricks, | Nockles, Seniors and Ben Larks into | the ranks of the Socialist Party and) into the ranks of the A. F. of L. | There is already growing resent- ment in the ranks of the Socialist! Party and A. F. of L. on the issue to| Freé Tom Mooney. ‘The Socialist) Party carries out the policy of John L. Lewis and begins to expel members from the Socialist Party who fight for a united front action to free Tom Mooney. This was signified particu- larly in expelling four members of the Socialist Party and Young Peoples Socialist League in Chicago. ‘The capitalist class needs the strike- | breakers of working class unity. The executive committees of the A. F. of L. and Socialist Party will not stop the working class in its struggle for free Mooney. The ruling class and the strike-breakers are afraid that united pressure of the masses, will be able to open the doors which were closed on Tom Mooney 17 years ago.

The Thomas amendment is permissive, not mandatory. But it is} pe a certainty that Roosevelt will be forced to embark upon enormous in- flation. The Thomas amendment provides for the issuance of $3,000,000,000 of “greenback” currency, the reduction of the gold content of the dollar, and the acceptance of $200,000,000 in silver which may be coined or used as backing for paper currency. There has {also begun a rise in rents. A leading real estate author- ity in New York City, Charles F.
