Yes, many workers know that there is a great deal of talk about ‘the next war,” They have heard it since 1918 and it still sounds academic to them, material to place next to the ads in the Sunday news- paper supplements. The state of unawareness of these workers plays admirably into the hands of the War and Navy peer" | ments, the sup- . porter and pro. tector of Amer- ican imperialism from the Fire- stone rubber plantations in Li- beria to the Gug- genheim mining bropersies in Peru, @ Mexico and Chile, ew workers real- ize that American. generals and ad- S.

From the standpoint of labor, the failure to place American and British machine guns in the field will mean that fellow-worker will not kill fellow-worker to get markets for British or American capitalists. ‘HIS week “American imperialism took a great step in preparation for entering the theatre for war. To the mass of workers it was served up as the report of the Inter-Depart- mental Communications Committee, “a study of communications . . . an interesting study of the necessity for a more definite National policy as to reguiations, supervised by a com- mission or by a Federal departmental unit.” To the insiders it meant that |imperialist trade rivalries daily were becoming more intense and that all communications, radio, wireless, cable and telephone, are to be put on a potential war footing. “The War and Navy Departments,” said Secretary of Commerce Roper, Chairman of the Communications mmittee, a few hours after Presi- dent Roosevelt had announced that | the Committee had completed its re- ort, “presented a great deal of data and made certain specifications.” International Telephone & Tele- |graph, Western Union and the Radio Corporation of America, under the stress of the crisis, moved closer to jthe government apparatus. That, in | itself, is not new or startling. The N.R.A. was formed by and at the behest of the monopolies. In fact, |since the inception of the Roosevelt mechanism they have taken such -igiant steps forward, that they have .|arrived at the point where they send up trial balloons such as the Swope __|plan for the assimilation of the N. R. A. into their trade association cisation of industry. ‘The importance of communications for carrying on war, however, does make the recent announcement im~- portant, vitally important to those who will be asked and ordered to load munitions and to those who will be drafted to shoot down their fellow- workers. The screen for the war maneuyre is the strong probability that in the domestic field the communications monopolies will be “regulated” by the |government. That means by them-~ j Selves. Certainly.

D. The Fighting Vets By H. E, BRIGGS THIS WEEKS HONOR ROLL turn over our space this week to Comrade Walls. His sincerity and devotion as recorded in a letter from Joseph Gardner, Negro veteran and secretary of Post No. 4 Workers Servicemen’s League, Chicago, de- serves the homage of every worker in the United States @ member of the and the W. E. 8. L. Comrade Walls, Communist Party | gave his Life for the Party, the vet- erans and the working masses, Negro! and white. Being a Communist he| knew the importance of the strug-| gle for better conditions. As a vet- eran he joined the W. E. 8. L. realiz~ ing that it is the only veterans organ- ization which carries on the ex-serv- icemen’s fight for the Bonus (back pay) comp: ion, pensions, hospi- talization and RELIEF. And that it does this in conjunction with the rank and file of other veteran and working class organizations. It does not consider the veterans problems as a separate and distinct issue. He did his work in a courageous manner. He has not died in vain. With clenched, determined fists we shall build a greater Workers Ex-Service- men’s League. His final monument shall be a WORKERS, FARMERS and VETERANS REPUBLIC in Amer- ica. =. ere To the National Office W. EF. S. L. Dear Comrades: Comrade Walls, the treasurer of Post No. 4 Workers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League, died on the 4th of November at the County Hospital. Before his death he asked the comrades to be sure that in his funeral there would be no flowers. If comrades and friends had money to spend for fiowers to turn this money over to the W. E. S. L. or the Scottsboro Boys. He also requested that there would be no preashers allowed to say a word at his funeral. He re- quested that the workers take care of his body. He asked that in his coffin would be placed the red flag with the hammer and sickle inside the coffin. Comrade Wagls was a member of the Communist Party. In the first Bonus March, Comrade Walls went out in his car collecting food and money to support the bonus march- ers. Many times he felt sick and had to be carried home, yet he never stopped fighting with the workers against the rotten conditions. Post No. 4 has lost one of its most militant fighters, One who above all held the Communist Party and the Workers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League as a part of him, He realized that he would not live long if he continued his activity in the revolutionary or- ganizations. Doctors had warned him to stay at home and be quiet and not worry about conditions. But Com- rade Walls answer was that he could not rest since he had already seen @ new and better world being built in the Soviet Union, led by the Com-~- munist Party. A world where there would be no Scottsboro frame-ups, unemployment, Jim = Crowism and starvation. A country where there would be no bonus marches nor cut- ting off of disabled veterans com- pensation. He knew that his place was with the workers in the strug- gles against the capitalist class until the victory was won, but death came. Though he will not be with us in the many battles that are before us, let the spirit of Comrade Walls encour- age us to organize the ex-servicemen in the fight for the restoration of our compensation and the rest of the bonus. We must build the Workers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League. We must consolidate our ranks with the rest of Workers School Forum RICHARD B.

Joseph Gardner, DISABILITY AND DISCRIMINATION ae ee ISS GRACE CULLEY, member of the White House Secretarial Staff was offered an army plane to trans- port her to Washington when she was ill., She received this through the kindness of Mrs. Roosevelt. Such con- sideration for its employees certainly deserves the respect of the disabled veterans who, at present, find them- selves on the bread lines and in shantytowns.

If secretaries can be taken care of by the Federal gov- ernment, then the veterans must see to it through their rank and file groups that they are also taken care of by the Federal government. Roose- velt has passed the buck about relief, compensation and pensions, to the States. It is up to’as veterans to make the States come across. If they do not, then we must force through mass action the government of these States to admit the inability of the States to take care of us. A further admission must be wrung from these buck passers that responsibility for compensation, pensions and adequate Cash Relief rests with the Federal government, ‘The best way to do this ts to de- mand a Workers’ Ex-Servicemen’s League representative for the vet- erans in Washington, to be recog- nized by the Board of Appeals in the hearing of these disability cases. For the W. E. 8. L. is the only ex-service- men’s organization that honestly fights for the rank and file veterans, ‘The Board of Appeals is to be a vet- erans Supreme Court. If you want. to appeal that case and don’t trust the fairness of bankers, lawyers and big businessmen who are to sit on the Board with generals, colonels, etc., of the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars and Disabled American Veterans, then we must get a W. E. 8. cases to the Board. In the meantime, we should keep up the fight for the 3-point program, which insures ade- quate relief for veterans and workers Dallas CWA Men Threaten Strike DALLAS, Texas.—C. W. A. au- thorities attempting to force a 35c- an-hour rate on workers here, are meeting with a strike threat if 40c an hour is not granted. The State C.W.A. claims the workers must accept the 35c scale since that is the prevailing wage on all state highway commission work. This ruling is contrary to Roose- velt’s proposed 50c rate set for all C.W.A, projects. 12 Share-Croppers Fined by Alabama Court in Frame-Up Stool Pigeon Caught in Lies on Charge of Murder Intent LAFAYETTE, Ala. Dec. 15.— Twelve Chambers County Negro sharecroppers framed on charges of assault with intent to murder, were fined $300 each by Judge Bowling in court here today. ‘The twelve croppers, charged by a stool-pigeon who was introduced into} the ranks of the sharecroppers union, with assaulting him, had been held incommunicado in the county jail for two months. In a court crowded with Negro croppers here, Bowling was forced to drop prosecution plans for railroad- ing the croppers to long chain-gang terms. An appeal will be taken by the In- ternational Labor Defense against the sentence, it was announced. Frank Irwin, attorney retained by the I, L. D., exposed the frame-up in the court-room when he proved by the almanac that it was a moon- less night when Powell, the stool- pigeon, claimed he was assaulted by men whom he recognized by moon- light. ‘The Sharecroppers Union has pledged to fight for the release of their comrades, linking up this struggle with the fight against evictions, for the whole check in all federal relief without sharing with the landlords who have been taking practically the whole amount under the A.

Bryan, who has been evicted three times in the past seven months, because the landlord re- fused to accept city rent checks, worked at Bear Mountain until last February, when he was injured on the job, and for which he has as yet received no compensation. He moved into the Herzl St. house at 8:00 p.-m.-on Dec.-12,-and paid a deposit on the rent. At 4:00 p. m. the police acting under the orders of the landlord, Sam Chakin, president of the Brownsville Land- lords’ Association, were on hand to evict him. Chakin had just found out Bryan was a Negro. Bryan refused to go. At 5:30 p.m. of the next day, while it was snowing, 10 police en- tered Bryan’s home and forced the eviction «although the landlords’ eviction law specifically states that in no case can an eviction be car- ried through after 4:00 p. m. or during a rain or snow storm.
