Reverend Paul Young, a brother of the president of Federal Lab- ortories, Inc., a missionary and member of the Christian Mission- | ary Alliance, evidently feeling that his material reward for serv- ing the heayenly hosts was insuf- ficient, made a tidy bit om the side by demonstrating tear gas bombs of the Federal Laboratories Company beforz a group of Ecua- dor government officials. Six hundred dollars was the price the same company paid Lieutenant | Commander James H. Strong while he was still an officer of the U. 3.

Thai those higher in federal circles were junaware of what was going on seems | hardly possible in view of the fact that Strong was then a technical advisor to the Colombian advisor, lent by the U. 8S. governthent. | Strong resigned from the Navy on Feb. 19, 1934 and is now in charge cf aviation for Colombia. In view of this connection in Colombia one |” cannot doubt that not a little of that government's currency passes | over the counter of Federal Labo:- atories, Inc. The spectacle of ships, loaded to the gunwales with munitions, can- not be viewed indifferently by the American working class, either by those who must man such vessels as the Morro Castle, or any other section of labor. A powerful roa- ef protest against these things must go up! Seamén and longshoremen who have raised the question of the shipment of munitions—principally through the militant Marine Work- (ers Industiial Union should be con- |gratulated.

They ha no interests separate and @part from’ those of the prole- tariat as a They do not set up any sectarian principles of their own, by which to shape and mould the proletarian movement. The Communists are distinguished from the other Working class par- his only: (1) In the na- ruggles of the proletarians | of the different countries, they point out and bring to the front the comi- mon interests of the entire prole- tariat independently of all nation- ality. (2) In the various stages of development which the struggle of the working class against the bour- geoisie has to pass through, they always and everywhere represent the interests of the movement as a whole. The Communists, on the one hand practically | therefore, pushes forward all others; on the other hand, theoretically, they have over the grgat_ mass of the prole- |tariat the “advantage of clearly understanding the line of march, the conditions, and the ultimate general results of the proletarian movement. The immediate aim of the Com- munists is the same as that of all the other proletarian parti for- mation of the proletariat into a overthrow of the bourgeo’ macy, conquest of political Ir y the proletariat. | The theoretical conclusions of the Communists are in no way based on ideas or principles that have been invented, or discovered, by this or |that would-be universal reformer. They merely express, in general terms, actual relations springing from form a historical movement going on under our very eyes. The aboli- |tion of existing property ralations is not at all a distinctive feature }of Communism. All property relations in the past have continually been subject to historical change consequent upon the change in historical conditions. The French Revolution, for ex- ample, abolished feudal property in favor of bourgeois property. The distinguishing feature of Communism is not the abolition of |property generally, but the abolition of bourgeois property. But modern bourgeois private property is the final and most complete expression of the system of producing and ap- propriating products, that is based on class antagonism, on the ex- Ploitation of the many by the few.

It is thus obvicus why the offi- cials of the Ward Line, togéther with the officials of the Federal government, were so eager to seek Protection by an artificially stimul- ated smoke screen of “Red scares” in an effort to explain away the frightful negligence of the com- pany and its endangering the lives of the passengers and crew by the transportation of highly dangerous explosives. That the Ward Line, as well as every other shipping line in the country, is sending a steady stream of war material to Latin America on all of its vessels, without letting the passengers know of the dan- gerous cargo, is evidenced by the following facts: On Septembe: 12, 1934, the S. 8. Siboney carried 71 cases of car- tridges weigning 6,301 pounds, for consignment to Vera Cruz, Mexico. The company had a government permit for this shipment. On the same trip, the Bethlehem | Stéel Export Company shipped to Vera Cruz 344 bundles of steel helniets. The S. S. Oriente carried to Havana for thé National Lead Company on Sentember 13 under bill of lading 3,275 gunnies of lead shot weighing 7.515 pounds. The same vessel sailed on August 29 for Vera Cruz with a shipment from the Winchester Repeating Arms Co, 50 casés of shotgun shells, 1 case of primérs, and 5 cases of percussion caps. These shipments of war mate- rials, in many cases under eondi- tions gravely endangering the lives of the crew and the passengers, are daily reaching greater propor- tions.

Speakers denounced the manufac- turers and exposed the role of their salésmen in promoting the interna- tional sale of gas and arms for use against the workers and farmers of various countries, The meeting was held under the auspices of the American League Against War and Fascism, Ben Careathers, Fred Kearns, Doran, and Dowelson—representing the League, the Vet's Rank and File Committee, the Young Communist League and the International Labor Defense, addressed the assemblage of workers, Their remarks were greeted with enthusiastic applause as they described the activities of Federal Laboratories as revealed by the testimony of John M. Young, president of the company, béfore the Senate munitions investigation. All the employes of the gas factory had been sent home for the day and their places in the office and shop were filled by squads of Mayor MeNait’s police. Other patrolmen stood around the outskirts of the crowd as the speeches wére made.
