We have already at hand stirring greetings from the heroic Communist Parties of China, Japan and the Philippine Islands, and these will be printed in the anniversary issue. Tt will thus be seen that the Tenth Birthday Issue of the Daily Worker will not be « mere chronicle; it will be, on the contrary, a living proof of the vital- ity of our Communist press, an inspiring record of its accomplishments in the American class struggle and rise an indication of its potential role in the decisive battles that are to come. Workers everywhere should prepare to give the widest possible distribution to this Anniversary Edi- tion, and thus bring the influence of the central or- gan of the Communist Party of the U.S.A. to ever- wider masses of readers. “Thinking and Striking” is the title of an edi- torial in the New York Evening Post of Satur~- day calculated to keep the workers from taking ac- tion against their growing grievances. “The President and the Democratic Congress have merited the trust of the workers of America,” says the Post. “That trust is betrayed by unnecessary striking. Labor’s move now is to place its demand before the one President who thinks of the masses first... “Give him the opportunity he deserves.” What blessings has Roosevelt brought the Amer- ican working class that merits this slavish confidence asked by the Post, Green, and other Wall Street supporters? Roosevelt’s attack against the workers netted the 200 of the leading corporations $160,000,000 profits in 1933 as against $25,000,000 in 1932—an increase of over 600 per cent! ‘The workers were forced to pay for these profits by a heavy reduction in real wages. According to even the poisoned sources of information in the A. F. of L., the real wages of the American workers were cut 23 per cent (American Federationist, December, 1933.) ® s OOSEVELT promised unemployment insurance and the re-employment of millions. Instead, he cuts relief, gives a few C. W. A. jobs—many are beaten up when they ask for their pay. He granted hun- dreds of millions for war purposes under the guise of public works. Or should the workers merit Roosevelt and his Congress the trust asked for by the Post because of the fascist attacks of the N. R. A.? The N. R. A. promised the right of organization, the right of collective bargaining, the right to belong to unions of the workers “own choice,” and spoke about no compulsion on the part of the bosses in driving the workers into company unions. The N. R. A. promised higher purchasing power and greater em- ployment. What has been the result? Should the workers give Roosevelt “the opportunity” to repeat the history of the past six months of strikebreaking? ‘When over a million workers went on strike for the right of organization and for higher pay, the whole N. R. A. apparatus was brought in to break strikes. Roosevelt himself helped to drive the min- ers back to the pits with promises that turned to ashes, and company unionism in many places. ‘The Weirton steel workers are now feeling the miserable betrayals of the N. R. A. No wonder hun- | dreds of workers wrote “Hitler,” and “Hitlerism” into their ballots in the forced company union voting. Their strike was broken by N. R. A. promises and the lackey service of the A. F. of L. leaders. ° * * 'O fas as union rights are concerned, the very Post editorial that appeals for faith, confidence and no strikes, admits the labor boards are open-shop in- struments. How about the codes? They shackled the work- ers with minimum wage scales and so-called maximum hours, The minimum wages are becoming the maxi- mum (shown in the slash in real wages). Through the codes, plus Roosevelt's program of inflation, higher taxes for the workers, processing taxes, and what not, prices are shooting skyward. ‘The workers are placed between the two jaws of a vice—between the crushing weight of lowered wages and higher prices (food prices have already gone up 20 per cent). ‘What the Post and other Roosevelt capitalist spokesmen really fear is that the workers, learning from the past betrayals of the N. R. A. and A. F. of 1, officialdom, with their wages being cut, already show symptoms that a new strike wave is brewing that may surpass the recent struggles which began before the N. R. A. was passed and proceed along with it. These spokesmen do not want the bosses’ apple cart upset. They want the workers to remain shackled by the N. R. A, and to wait for new chains from the forthcoming Congress. * * . E Post promises that Roosevelt through the next Congress will help the workers by amending the N. R. A. What can the workers expect from the next Congress? Undoubtedly there will be some changes in the N. R, A. These will bé initiated with the wildest demagogy and promises. But in reality they will strengthen the N. R. A. as an instrument of op- pression and attack on the workers, as it is already proposed to strengthen the compulsory arbitration provisions and practices through the local and na- tional labor boards set up by the N, R, A., with the cooperation of the misleaders of labor. The fascist features of the N. R. A, will be strengthened in the next Congress. Only strikes now for the immediate demands of the workers can defeat this purpose, and preparations for struggles regardless of what Congress does is the workers’ only salvation in the face of the bosses’ pro~ gram of lowering living standards, 6 eee es < HAT is necessary now ts a united front, that is, a common fighting program and organization of all workers, regardless of what organization théy belong to, in order to win the most elementary rights of organization, and to forge a weapon of struggle for higher wages. This can be accomplished In many ways. Mainly f will be accomplished by workers within the A. F. of L, organizing their rank and file opposition groups, fighting for a militant program of struggle and for unity with the workers in the revolutionary trade unions on the basis of a minimum program to pre- serve the workers rights and Mving standards. ‘This is what all the agents of the bosses do not want, but it is an end that must be achieved if the workers are not to allow themselves to be driven deeper towards the coolie Jevel of living standards by the Roosevelt W.R.A. program, or any other scheme he may evolve to help the bosses pile up Profits at the expense of the workers. In building the united front of struggle, the Trade Union Unity League and all tts affiliated Industrial unions have the outstanding, leading task, through its own unions and through the opposition groups in the reformist unions.’ Inner Mongolia in Anti-Soviet Drive, Powers Grouping for} Expected War in the Far East SHANGHAI, Dec. 17.—Japanese in- fantry, aided by troops of the puppet Manchukuo state, yesterday crossed the Jehol-Chahar province borders in a drive to separate all Inner-Mon- | golia from China and extend their base of operations for armed inter- vention against the Mongolian Peo- ple’s State (Outer Mongolia) and the Soviet Union? ‘The Japanese forces occupied the important town of Hsifingchu, 65 miles northeast of Kalgan, capital of Chahar, as Nanking Kuomintang troops conveniently withdrew. Japanese imperialist agents have been active in Chahar, Suiyuan and Ninghsia” provinces, Inner Mongolia, for several months past, bribing local Mongolian chiefs and generally pre- paring the latest invasion of Chinese territory. The new drive is accompanied by @ series of provocations against the Soviet Union, including the arrest of two Soviet officials on Dec. 10 and 11, respectively, at Bukheda, and court proceedings by the Manchukuo Attorney. General against a Soviet citizen on charge of having disobeyed the orders of the “Manchukuo man- agement of the Chinese Eastern Rail- way.” According to the railroad conven- tion, the’ ‘manager of the line is a Soviet citizen. The action of the Manchukuo. Attorney General shows the Japariése puppet state in a brazen attempt to seize the railroad, while sabotaging the negotiations, author- ized by the Soviet Government in its efforts to maintain peace, for the sale of the railroad to Japan. An early outbreak on a huge scale in the Far East is freely predicted by foreign observers. That these pre- dictions are based on secret informa- tion in the hands of the imperialist governments «is indicated by a rapid Te-grouping of the powers involved in the Pacific. Thus, Lord Allenby, Brit- ish Field-Marshal, is now on a secret tour of the Dutch East Indies with the view of assuring co-ordination between British and Dutch forces in the event of a Japanese attempt to seize Hollarid’s oil ports in Borneo. ‘The British imperialists, while willing to continue their support of Japanese actyities in Manchura, with the aim of egging-on Japan against the Soviet Union, are sharply opposing Japan- ese attempts to penetrate the British spheres of influence in Central and South China Rift of Kuomintang Widens; Red Army Makes New Advance SHANGHAI, Dec. 17.—Greater con- flicts among the Chinese landlord- capitalist groups is evidenced by the unity between Sun Fo and Hu Han Min on the question of the replacing of Chiang Kai Shek by less dis- credited native politicians.

The big- gest and best Daily Worker in the history of our paper, 3 Enthusiastic U. S. Delegates Return from USSR Were Part ‘of Huge World Delegation to Soviet Union By HELEN KAY Filled with enthusiasm by the tre- mendous progress of the workers’ land, three American workers, John Ge- raghty, of California, Tom Austen of Minneapolis, Minn., and Hays Jones of New York, have returned to New York, after a month's tour arranged by the Friehds of the Soviets Union of the land where the workers and farmers rule. ! “We were met in Leningrad by a workers’ delegation, and we were in fected then by their enthusiasm, and we haven't lost it yet. Nor ever will.” said John Geraghty, a worker from Vallejos, California. The three delegates from the States, became part of a huge workers’ dele- gation from all over the world. Dele- gates from- South Africa, England, France, Sweden, Australia, Germany, Spain, and the United States be- came the guests of the workers of Russia, and toured this vast workers’ land for one solid month, seeing any- one, anything, and any place they especially -wished. Tom Austen, a highly skilled tool and die maker, was particularly in- terested in schools, since he thought the “schools are the foundation of a people.” and.as a tocl and diemaker he was particularly interested in the progress of that industry, “because tools are the foundation of industry,” and in farming, “because Minnesota is a farming section.” John Geraghty, made a particular study of the huge tractor and auto plants.

S. 8.-R. generally, but in each individual district, region and Repub- lic, and not only by Kolkhozes (Col- lective farms), but also by private farmers? The Ukraine, Northern Caucasia and the lower Volga region, which lagged behind in 1932, fulfilled this years program before the fixed date. 49.9 Per Cent Increase ‘The ratio of the amount delivered from the Socialist section of the tote? grain déliveries in 1933 equals about 90 per cent of the total. Grain de- livered by the State and Collective: Farms {f 1931, was only about 70 per cent of the total. Grain delivered to the State by the State Farms in 1933 was 475 per cent more than in 1931 and 13.7 per cent more than in 1932, Wheat delivered in 1933 was 49.3 per cent more than 1932. The Kolk- hozes haye already stocked up over 70 per cent of their seed required for future sowing, as against 25 per cent of 1932. The Kolkhozes have already distributed their revenues which are considerably higher than in 1932, After fulfilling the quota for the delivery of grain, the state is stocking up seed for future sowing in the Kolkhozes. The individual farmers’ still posses an additional great grain surplus, which they are ~ selling. The sale of the grain is al- ready in progress.in.many regions, districts and republics. How Does Right Ri ed Look Now Of the grain deliveries for 1933, Pravda writes that it marks the end~ ing of a long period of bitter class struggle and socialist construction The socialist form of social produc- tion in “agriculture of the same type as industrial. production has grown and become fortified in the course here of ‘years. The positions of in- dividual -farming, hourly breeding capitalist elements, has finally been overcome. The results of the grain deliveries of 1933 again prove the invincible power of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat, declares the organ | of the Communist Party, and the | consolidation and inviolability of the union of the working class with the peasantry and the triumph of the poner licy of the party of Lenin “the Pravda continues, how a the right wing opposition which was lead by Bukharin, Rykov and ‘Tom- sky look now, whose policy meant dragging the country into a union with the kulaks afG the road to re~ storation of capitalism? How do the right wing opportunists look now, who were crying that the develop~ ments of the state Kohkhozes should be checked as the latter would give no ffiarketable grain? The machine- tions of the class enemy and his agents, fearing the struggle against the Kulaks and attempting to keep the Pariy back, have crashed. The Party of Lenin, the sagacity of the Communist Party Central Commit- tee’s strategy and the tactics of Stalin have triumphed. The quantity of marketable grain has been increasing early since the reorganization of the state farms and Kolkhozes. They are delivering a quantity of grain which is beyond the capacity of the individual system of farming. .The leadership of the Kolkhozes lias been decidedly im- proved during the current: year and the former. shoricomings rectified, With the aid of the political depart- ments created upon the initiative of Stalin, the Koikhozes and State Farms ‘have got rid of the Kulak, sabotaging elements. ‘The political departments: have been able to pene- trate inta.the very midst of the masses of the ¢oliective farmers and kindle the labor enthusiasm of the collective farmerg, men and women.
