DAILY WORKER, N WwW HA T WORLD! By Michael Gold The Book of Poison ; W. Gerard was United States Ambassador to Germany up to ce of America into the House of Morgan’s War. Jim was a great admirer of the Kaiser, and often bragged in print of the occasions on which the Kaiser permitted him to kiss the royal German backside. But when America went into the war, Jim wrote learned articles about the Hun. He became an authority on Hunnishness, and raping by barbarians, and the diabolic German soul. Jim is still considered a student of Germany by such scholarly groups as the National Security League and the Civic Federation, Recently the New York Times asked him, as one in author- ity, to review the book, “My Battle,” by the Nazi-rat, Hitler. This is one of the putrid books of history, which is destined to go into the archives of pathology with the works of the Marquis de Sade and the poisoner Aretino, It has not even the artistic flavor of these other perverts; it is inconceivable that a Hitler have any touch of grace. It is the kind of literature that has its exact parallel in the journals and pamphlets of the Ku Klux Klan. Huey Long’s recent autobiography, “Every Man a King,” is the work of a master of rhetoric when compared to the clumsy loutishness and ugly ape-rearing of the diseased leader of a diseased class, Hitler. ‘The ¢X-ambassador’s review would be negligible except for one sig- nificant statement. He explains, accurately enough, that Hitler is the demagogic voice of the bankrupt lower middle class and the tool of the big industrialists. The Versailles treaty was blamed for the poverty of Germany. The old monarchists hoped for a restoration, and the in- dustrialists'for a new empire, Hitler focussed all the fear and despair of the post-war years into a movement of narrow nationalism and re- venge. He made all the false windy promises of a Huey Long. He knew the lower middle class was in a revolutionary mood, and like Huey and Father Coughlin here, he preached what seemed to be revolution to them. This revolution, of course, included the persecution of the Jews. The Jews were blamed for the whole development of capitalist liberalism and parliamentary democracy. They were accused of being both the leaders of Marxism and the leaders of predatory wealth. * . . The Old Diplomacy UT it is idle to repeat all the familiar poison at this point. For Am- passador Gerard is against the persecution of the Jews, and writes quite indignantly on this theme. But his old diplomatic training remains, and at the-height of his indignation he coolly makes an offer to Hitler in the following significant paragraph: itler is doing much for Germany, his unification of the Germans, his destruction of Communism, his training of the young, his creation of a Spartan state animated by patriotism, his curbing of parliamentary gov- ernment, 0 unsuited to the German character; his protection of the right of private property are all good; and after all, what the Germans do in their own territory is their own business, except for one thing—the per- secution and practical expulsion of the Jews.” This is the statement, as is; it appeared in the New York Times for Sunday, October 15, 1933. Yes, the good ex-ambassador, patriot, National Security Leaguer and red-baiter.is quite willing to embrace Hitler. He is frank to confess that he approves of Hitler’s murder and torture of thousands of Socialists, liberals and Communists, He frankly likes the Hitler program for doing away with parliamentary government and setting up a Fascist dictator- ship by: big-business. Like his old friend, ‘the ex-Kaiser, the ex-ambassador prefers a Spartan state, animated by patriotism; a military state in which no other social, esthetic or scientific values exist but man-murder and goose-step discipline. None of the vile and medieval horrors Hitler has introduced shocks old Gerard; it has been done to “protect private property”; there- fore it is all good. ‘The persecution of the Jews seems to many of these Fascists, Jewish and Gentile; an unnecessary faux pas. It is the one mistake Hitler has made, they feel; they want him to rectify it, so as to proceed with the really important work of “protecting private property,” We arg to witness in this country a serious camipaign by the Nazi- rats, They are buying off newspaper editors, publicity men, politicians, radio officials. Jew-baiting may not be an essential part of their propa- ganda; Mr. Gerard evidently thinks not. But the slander and the terror against the working class are good, says Mr. Gerard, and we can be sure that he will help Fascism in America to the limit of his class-hatred. . * . Defenders of Nazi Free Speech HAT is one to say when two Jewish lawyers, representing the American Civil Liberties Union, argue with Mayor O’Brien to permit the Nazis of New York the use of an armory in which to make propaganda? This is liberalism gone mad, the ultimate absurdity of the whole liberal position. Only a mind removed from reality, only a mind living in a bourgeos. dream-world, can drift into such a position. If the Ku Klux Klan tried to hold a meeting in New York to preach the lynching of Negroes, it would be as ludicrous for a Negro lawyer to defend them. as for these.two men to defend the Nazis. This whole controversy over free speech is an academic one with these ivory-tower liberals. To the worker it is something as real as murder. It is part of the class war, not something in the clouds. Fr2e speech is not an inalienable right, but something to be fought for—a class weapon. It is not to be given up to scabs in a strike, or to Nazis and Ku Kluxers, We are not interested in hearing what they have to say—we only wish to labor that they may not exist.

Jacob Dainoff: The Life and Death of a | Worker and Proletarian Artist ive Many Years in) Canadian Working Class Movement By PHIL BARD ‘RIDAY night, Sept. 29, Jacob Dai- | noff was present among the thou- | the Anti-War Congress. Dainoff was one of those who cheered the appear- ance of Henri Barbusse at the Con- gress, and who joined in the world- wide cry against imperialist war. Having volunteered as a captain, he | was kept busy until the last seat in |the auditorium was cleared. Saturday’ morning, Sept. 30, Com- rade Jacob Dainoff lay dead in his basement at 911 Tiffany St., Bronx,. in a room cluttered with his sculpture and old furniture. After nearly 40 years of revolutionary activity as an editor, journalist, iron + and sculptor, Jacob Dainoff | s dead. Let us turn back to the year 1884, wor! w during a period of extreme unrest, | when the Russian Czar first launched | | his bloody pogroms against the Jews. Jacob Dainoff was born in a small town near Vilna. The son of a Jewish | brick-maker (at the time one of the Jacob was born into an environment of racial oppression, | with the added “stigma” of being a poor man’s son. Often as a pastime the child Jacob would try to shape images out of the clay used for brick- making. But conditions in the home didn’t allow for this “foolishness.” Jacob went to work as apprentice to a locksmith. Little is known of Dai- noff’s life at this period, but we know that it was about this time that he first became acquainted with, and joined the revolutionary Social- Democratic Party. ‘We meet him next (1902-1905) do~ ing active work as a member of the Regional Committee of the Bund (Jewish Section of the Social Demo- cratic Party) in the regional district of Smargon, during a period when the Social Democrtic Party was mak- ing great inroads amongst the Rus- sian workers and was winning many concessions from the czarist govern- ment. “Jacob the Locksmith,” as Dainoff was called by the workers in the region, helped organize the tan- nery workers for a strike at this time, and soon became secretary of the Tannery Workers Union, one of the strongest unions in Russia at the time. Iinitiated by the Social Demo- cratic Party, strike wages swept all of Russia, the party grew over-night. Workers defied the Czar and held meetings on street corners, at fac- tory gates and in homes. The cry of “Bread!” rang through the streets. The Czar answered this by sending his police to shoot into the workers’ meetings. He ordered the murder and exile of many leaders of the Social Democratic Party. Despite the terror, the revolution- ary movement grew steadily. The workers secretly armed themselves and tied up all shipping in the strike. ‘of the Dredging Fleét, and one morn- ing in December, 1905, the pent-up wrath of the masses exploded... . The cry of “Armed insurrection in Russia!” broke the quiet of the world. For a number of days the workers barricaded in the streets wielded power. International financiers and foreign embassies waited for the Czar’s next move. The international credit of the Russian capitalists and the imperial government hung in the balance. The Czar had to act and quickly. He let loose all the hell of armed fury, he wiped out in blood all the gains made by the workers. Then the reaction set in. Martial law declared, thousands of workers exe- cuted, thousands more sent into exile, Cossack raids and pogroms were a part of the Czar’s agenda. Jacob Dainoff was one of those who were arrested and sent to Siberia for his revolutionary activities. SS gre egy HE Social Democratic Party de- veloped sharper plans to meet the Czarist terror. Continuing to work under ground, a group was elected for the special task of smuggling workers out of prison. In 1907, the same year that he had been impris- oned, Dainoff was smuggled out of prison into Germany. He remained in Germany only a short time, studying the developments of the revolution- ary movement there, then travelled to America (1908) and landed finally in Paris. After the intense revolution- ary work in Russia, Dainoff found it difficult to acclimate himself and for a time busied himself in travelling. In Paris Dainoff visited many art “| gallieries and closely studied Euro- pean sculpture. In conversations with comrades on the sculpture and paint- ing to be found in Paris, he would speak of the bankruptcy of the bour- geois artists, their failure to reflect the life about them. He asserted that art was an instru- ment of a class and in explaining the relation of art to society, showed how the bourgeoisie shaped art in its own HIS HONOR, YEARS ON THE BEACH AAO AAS ONLY CAAGED TEM INNUCENT EN. image and with the collapse of the bourgeois economic and social system the culture too would become affected and perish with the system that nursed it. Dainoff spoke of the grow- ing struggles of the world proletariat. and of the art that such a movement inevitably produces. “The proletariat demands cultural expression,” he re- veated, over and over again. After many such conversations, which were. often greeted lightly by his comrades, SUDGE Sustice, 28 is of workers who came to open | | { JACOB DAINOFF | | Dainoff decided to give his time seri- | ously to the study of sculpture. my Re JUTTING aside all other work for a year, Dainoff labored to master the technique of modelling. He combined his study of art with the study of Marx, Engels and Lenin. Inspired by the works of these lead- ers he would often attempt to illus- trate certain passages in clay... . Then taking his newly acquired knowledge of sculpture with him, Dainoff went off to become active in the Socialist Party of Canada as an organizer, editor and sculptor. At this time there began to develop oppor- tunistic tendencies on the part of many leaders of the Socialist Party, & policy of class collaboration with the bourgeoisie, which Dainoff and others fought sharply as members of the Left Wing of the Socialist Party. In 1917, at a time of war, the Left Wing of the Canadian S. P. followed the example of other countries and joined the Communist International. During the war Dainoff, although facing the danger of deportation as a foreign-born worker, continued to be active in organizing workers against imperialist war. When word came that the Russian workers, sup- ported by the peasants and the regu- lar army, had overthrown the Ozar and established the workers and peasants Union of Socialist Soviet Republics, Dainoff organized street meetings and distributed leaflets in the face of the police terror. In 1919 and during the wave of general strikes that followed the war, Dainoff became a leader in the fam- ous Canadian Electric Company strike, Later, when the strike. was broken, he retained his job only. because of his- popularity with the workers. In his spare time he continued to work at sculpture. He would make por- traits in metal and clay of his co- workers in the shop. Occasionally groups visited his home and discussed common grievances. Often the sub- ject would turn to the sculpture about the room and Dainoff explained his ideas of working-class art and spoke of a Communist society where work- ers and artists would have the free time and financial security to do the things they liked. They laughed at him and his ideas, but they all liked this husky, good-natured fellow who was not only a swell iron worker, he was also a damn good sculptor. The post-war period had wrought economic and cultural havoe particu- larly among the youth, a new gen- eration which had been blessed with the holy waters of war. Demoraliza- tion and cynicism were setting into the blood stream.

This finally resulted in the publication of the (Struggle) of which he was at dif- ferent times editor and contributor.

They stop mediums. Nineteen hundred twenty-six found him back again tn America, at work as a writer onthe staff of the Frei- heit, and in an dron foundry at his trade of iron worker. Combining both these exveriences it is no wonder that Jacob Dainoff’s stories breathed the life of the proletariat. He had no illu- sions of “pure” culture. For him a culture with both legs firmly planted in the soil and factories! At the same time that he was busy building up a left-wing sentément in the “Inside Tron and Bronze Workers Unien,” an independent uriion, of which he was a member, he frequently volunteered for some special~work in the Frei- heit, and continued to work as a sculptor. In this-way as an organizer, writer and seuiptor, Dainoff spent eyery conscious moment plenning to raise’ the organizational and cultural level of the mavement. He regretted only that the “days were too short.” Because of his ;suecessful activity in the union, a strong left-wing was de- veloped and before long the bureau- cracy of the union began to maneu- ver for affiliation with the Interna- tional (A. F. of 'L,)' union as a means of smashing thjs left-wing movement. 1929! Stock::markets, banks and homes crashing!
