DAILY WORKER, NEW YORK, WED: DAY, OCTOBER 10, 1934 wm, Page 5 ‘ 4 =a CHANGE -—THE— WORLD! By MICHAEL GOLD Y heres is an old story about a certain dumb, faithful slave, who was a building worker. Carrying some planks across the scaffolding of a new structure, he stepped through the unfinished elevator shaft, and dropped ten floors on his head. Everyone thought he was killed. But he picked him- self up, gathered up the planks, shock his head clear, and climbed back to his place. Sneaking up to one of his fellow workers, he whis- pered, “Say, Ed, did I mske the foreman sore at me?” * . * How About a Murder? THREE or four days ago the editor of the Daiy Worker suggested that s I write a column on the Edwards murder case in Wilkes-Barre. It seems that a great deal of interest among the masses has been aroused by this case, and the Daily Worker ought to have some comment on it. But I couldn’t work up an interest. And I have been sneaking around feeling guilty, and wondering if the editor is sore at me. 2 * * Dreiser’s American Tragedy Again if SEEMS that this young Mr. Edwards was the collegiate son of a mine boss. He was going around with a girl in his home town, daughter of another mine boss, and got her into trouble. Meanwhile he had fallen hard for another girl. What did he do? He took the first girl out in a rowboat and murdered her, a jury has found. And he will probably hang for it, It is all one of those sicken- ing messes so common in this sort of society. A New York newspaper engaged Theodore Dreiser to report the case, because the details so strongly resembled the murder case on which he based his famous novel, “An American Tragedy.” Mr. Dreise: sympathies were with the young murderer, as they had formerly been in the novel. For Dreiser, very properly, sees in such a case an indictment of society, and not of the criminal. Here is a typical American boy, in a situation not so unusual. Other such boys have gotten into the same mess, but haven’t com- mitted murder. There was evidence in this case enough to convince any unbribable psychologist that the youth was passing through a phase of adolescent insanity. Many such young people under capitalism commit suicide, or take to drugs, or even occasionally commit murder. It is generally the more sensitive or adventurous types who are temporarily unbalanced by the stresses of youth. There is no place for them in capitalist society. Even in the best of times, it is difficult for them to find out what they will make of their lives. Most of them must take any job flung at them, and be thankful. The mass of youth under capitalism is crushed in an iron mill until every ounce of talent, initiative and hope has been squeezed out. of them, and they become “good citizens.” There is also the budding sex urge, never more mysterious and powerful than at this period. And society forbids all lawful expression of it. These boys and girls can’t afford to marry, usually; and they can’t dare, in most American communities, to take recourse to illegal love. This also breeds a sense of desperation in them. Futility as to their life career, suppression and shame in their sex life, growing up in a chaotic, cruel society, where every man’s hand is turned against his neighbor, how can one do anything but pity the crimes of youth? And how fail to understand? This young Edwards needs a doctor. In the Soviet Union, for such a crime, he would be given ten years in @ sanitarium and prison school, and cured and made over into a use- ful member of society. ° * * More Dangerous Killers HIS doesn’t mean that Theodore Dreiser or the Soviet Union condone murder. But there are degrees in murder. I must confess that a murder like this one shocks and horrifies me, but doesn’t make me feel vindictive, which is the way all Babbitts feel in such cases. It is respectable murderers like the worthy directors of the steam- ship liné which owned the “Morro Castle” that make me feel the necessity of social revenge. Such people would undoubtedly be shot in the Soviet. Union, “as the highest measure of social protection.” They are infinitely more dangerous, with their unholy lust for profits, than a million young Edwardses in a community. killed a girl in a phase of real insanity, they have in cold blood, sanely, soberly and cleverly, sent hundreds to death, and will continue sending hundreds more, * * . Just Another Decimal ET I must confess again, it is difficult for me to work up much of a genuine interest any longer in the sad, sordid American tragedies that fill the papers. Murder for insurance, murder in a fit of insanity, murder in. some sex complication, murder for robbery—don’t they all fall into the same great pattern? It is an actual fact that such crimes for profit have almost been eliminated in the Soviet Union. Such expert investigators as Dr. John Kingsbury and Dr. Frankwood Williams report also that the sex neuroses of adolescents are no longer found over there, and that all neuroticism has been almost completely eliminated. It is easy to find hope, it is easy to work out one’s career, the pangs of the thwarted ego have been dissolved in the healing ocean of a sane and socialized Soviet society. . Certain intellectuals like Ludwig Lewisohn and Herbert Hoover are fond of telling us again and again that the individual is crushed in the Soviet Union, but that in America he has a chance to express himself. Seraee Seba d ee here is filled daily with hundreds of examples of the tragedy of the individual, but in the Soviet Union, frustration is a forgotten thing in literature and life. Any individual ego you pick out of the great mass displays traits of heroism and | exuberance such as one had never believed was in human nature. That's why murder cases in America seem boring after a while. It is like adding up the numerals in a long column of addition. The Be » uitva.C.i0Uus; it has happened once before, as in this Edwards case, it will happen again and again until capitalism, the great mur- derer, is finally hung on a proletarian sour-apple tree. * * . It Is Better To Hope | geen seca) during the days when I served as a reporter on capitalist papers, I believe ‘I covered no less than fifty murders— on the trail after the crime, in courtrooms, etc. All that naked American horror helped make a Communist of me, which is perhaps all to the good. But even then, while reporting a case, I would take good books with me to read at the press table, while pretending to make notes. After a while, one sickens of all this capitalist decadence; the mind turns more and more to the way out, and longs for the prom- ises of a new creation. The struggles of a trade union rank-and-file to get rid of its racketeer leaders, or the battle of some forgotten Communist unit in a small and hostile American town to bring light to the workers, is infinitely more interesting and important to me now than a hundred such murder cases. So I hope the Editor will forgive me. Where he has | A MARXIST CLASSIC . . .

Minsk is unrecognizable. The new Goy- | ernment Building would lock proud leven in the U. S. A. The Govern- | ment Building occupies 220,000 cubic meters. It was built in the last few years. The building whicn | \formerly housed the Governmental |institutions were all given over to | |the workers to be used as dwellings. | \Thus the living space of the work- | ers considerably increased. | Tells of Growth of Economy Comrade Goloded dwelt at some | length on the growth of the econ- omy of White Russia, general and communal. | “White Russia of the past, as part of Czarist Russia,” he said, “was a backward country. The annual’ production of White Rus- |sia before the Revolution-—taking the houndaries of the present Re- |public—was forty million. It was confined almost exclusively to the production of means of consump- tion with the prevalence of handi- crafi\ which yielded 7¢ per cent of |the entire output, The production jof factories and plants in White |Russia before the Revolution never | lexeeeded 30—32 per cent. This year |the production of Soviet White \Russia, expressed in pre-war rubles, jamounts to 650 million rubles. The production of capital goods now oc- \cupies the foremost place in the | |production of White Russia. “White Russia has its own ma- chine building industry. Our plants |produce boring and turning me- |chines, also maciines for road |buildings: concrete mixers, rollers, Stone crushers; We produce ma- jchines for the building trades and “machines for the extraction of peat, among which the peat combine forms the leading machine; we pro- {duce agricultural machinery for the cutting of silos materials, for the ieee of potatoes, for threshing, etc. | “White Russia now can point to new industries like the artifical silk mill in Mohilev. This factory is one of the few units in the U. S. S, R. ‘duced. The wood-working indus-| jtry and the textile industry are very well developed. The production of electric energy has moved to one of the leading places, We already | jhave electric stations in the dis- | tricts; they work on peat. This fuel, which is one of the major fuels in Soviet White Russia, is being pro- duced in large quantities. This year the peat preduction will amount to 1,500,000 tons, of which 70 per cent is produced by machinery of our own making. We have factories that produce cast-iron tubes; we also have automobile repair plants. | These industries are enumerated only by way of example.” Help from the Government | Comrade Goloded paused . for al minute. Raising his head he lev- elled his quiet eyes, the eyes of a thinker at his attentive inter- locutors and then said: “We must now ask the following question: Where did Soviet White Russia get its metal.indusiry?

The results jare there. For the last two years there haye been unusually large crops in all the branches of agri- culture. No one is inclined to ascribe this to God Almighty—this would be too dfficult, indeed. These jare the results of the application to our agriculture of higher tech- nique and organized collective work, “Take for instance such a ques- jtion as early sowing,” said Com- jrade Goloded. “There was a time jwhen by the end of May the pea- sants only began their sowing.

Because they do not know what is happening in the USS.R they measure us with the yardstick of their pre-revolutionary policy of oppressing the White-Russian people. “Under the Czarist government, the White-Russian school did not exist, the White-Russian language was being persecuted, White Russia |did not have its own state. Und | such cot ions to speak about the | Oppression of White Russia is pos- sible only for one who plays on complete ignorance concerning the |facis of the present life of Soviet White Russia.” Illiteracy Practically Liquidatea Taking up the question of culture, Comrade Goloded reminds us that before the reyolution there were jonly about 26 per cent among the | population of White Russia who | Knew how to read and write, and jeven that mostly in the cities. The village was almost entirely illiter- ate. Now White Russia has forgot- ten all this. Illiteracy has been fully liquidated in the cities among Persons up to the age of 50, and in the villages among persons up to | the age of 45. It must be men‘ioned that the | liquidation of illiteracy was com- | pleted in White Russia even before | this was done in the Russian Fede- |rated Soviet Republic. Obligatory jelementary education was also in- | troduced into Soviet Russia one year earlier than in the RSFSR. All children between the ages of 8 and 15 are now attending school in the Republic. The instruction in the schools is conducted in the native tongue of the pupils. There are schools where the language of in- struction is White Russian, Jewish, Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian and | Russian, Higher Institutions of Learning It is in the field of education that the correctness of the national | policy of the Soviet Union is par- | ticularly evident. Before the Revo- | lution, White Russia in its present | boundaries did not have a single | higher institution of learning. At present there are 23 universities and other higher institutions of learning }and 19 research institutees. ‘There jis an Acedemy of Science which is |the center of the whole scientific {research work in the Republic. There are Jewish, Polish, Russian and Latvian technicums. It must not be forgotten that the Great- Russian population of Soviet White | Russia, like all the other nationali jties, has a right to study and work in its native tongue. In ma | higher institutions of learning there jare Jewish sections where the |students learn in their native | tongue. | “Can any capitalist country boast |of such equality of nations and | languages?” asked Comrade Golo- | ded. can anybody believe the absurd white-guard propaganda concerning ‘Moscow oppression’? And isn’t it ‘clear both to the White-Russian and the Jewish masses of the United States of America that this is a lying fabrica‘ion of the white guards? On the other hand, what jelse remains for them to do if not | to lie?” | The question of the material well- being of the White-Russian masses was taken up. Comrade Goloded | first discussed the situation of the | peasantry. “There was a time when the | White Russian peasantry, as a mass, was in need of bread and was con- stantly passing through periods of }mass famine. At present there is {no such a situation where the | peasants would not have any bread or would not be certain of the future. Everybody knows that in former times large numbers of peasants used to emigrate from White Russia, which means that an |insufficient supply of means of | livelihood. At present there are not enough workers in the White Rus- sian village. We invite the peasants | to do work on the side, like lumber- ing, digging peat, building roads: All these works are being conducted in White Russia on a large scale. You would think the peasants would be eager to seize this oppor- tunity, especially in view of the fact- that the wages in these | branches of work are quite high and ; the provisioning is good. Still there are not very many free peasan's who take up this work. We have not enough free labor even in the village. This proves that on. the whole the peasantry do not need side earnings. (To Be Continued) “In the presence of such facts | | AND By DAVID CAMERA TO INCREASE SPEEDUP A new type of camera and pro- jection apparatus oped by the Beda the Eas:man Kod new apparatus was de: purpose of providing a for the measurement of manpower. For the first time, the element of time in human lak will be measured witho' of a clock. Motion pictures can be take: which can be used as the basis f an exact analysis of every their movements. From this analy- sis the efficiency experts of the Bedaux Company, who are notori ous for their speed-up schemes, wil deduce the time it takes to perform an operation or a job The apparatus will be u‘ilized to accelerate the workers’ pace. To conceal the real purpose of the de- vice, Mr. Douglas S. Keogh, presi- jent of the Bedaux concern, gave out the statement that it would make possible an increase in the output of workers “without adding to the strain of the job.” But every worker who has been subjected to the t e of eliminating so-called false and _ unnecessa motion knows that every such device is used to speed-up work to an un- bearable tempo. STEAM TABLES An interesiing example of how theory sometimes lags behind prac- tice, and how it has to be prodded by technological advance, was fur- nished at the Third International Steam Table Conference. It was disclosed that research on the properties of s'eam was at last catching up with recent improve- ments in steam power plants and generating turbines. Steam tables are complications of the properties of steam expressed in figures that show the varia‘ion | of pressures and innumerable other data. From these tables engineers }can compute the efficiencies of | power generating plants while they are still in the blue print stage. | The maximum efficiency of a plant depends to a large ex‘ent on these tables. But during the last two decades steam generators and turbines out- stripped the engineer's knowledge of the properties of steam. Results had to be achieved by trial and error methods. The movement for more experi- mental work with steam began jabout twelve years ago. Today ja great deal of the work has finally been coordinated. Steam tables used throughout the world are now in agreement. It is now possible to build a turbine in one country and have it pass efficiency tests in another country. Formerly different tables were used in the various countries amd this often led to completely different results | on the supposed efficiency of steam | power plants. A NEW METHOD OF CHEMICAL ANALYSIS At the recent meeting of the American Chemical Society, a New method for analyzing extremely | minute amounts of chemical ele- | ments was described by Dr. Charles | Rosenblum of the University of Revolution in | Spain Analyzed | in 'C. 1.’ No. 18] The latest issue of The Commu-| | nist International magazine, No. 18, |contains an article entitled “How the Revolution in Spain Can Be | Victorious.” This article throws a strong light on the recent develop- ment of forces in the working class | movement underlying the united | front general sfrike’ which has now turned into civil war. | This issue of the “C.

To put over this fals: the powers that rule the American As- for the Advancement of Science, are cooperating with some of the biggest ci rations in the staging of an bition which will giorify the “progress” of science under capitalism. The exhibition will be held in Pittsburgh next spring. Pure science will be exemplified by investigators from the Univers: of Pittsburgh, which has a distin guished record for expelling any scholar who dared to question spe- cial privilege. The annual meeting of the Association will be prostituted to advertising the virtues of every Possible gadget that can crast exhibit. Models of mult tional space will compete with ball hoo about the value of the alum num trust When the scientists listen to the bilge about what big business does for them, and when the exhibition reveals the support that science gives to monopoly, they shall note hat the exhibition was organized and Me’ there wou! to these apolog= ; for profit by the following beneafe- tods of science: Mr, L. O. Grondahl of the Union Switch and Signal Co.; Dr. F. C. Frary of the Aluminum Trust; Dr. S. M. Kinter of the West- inghouse Co.; and Dr. W. B. Spell- mire of the General Electric Co, Other sponsors include representa- tives from other monopolies. Thus science like every other in- tellectual activity is distorted and degraded to increase the dividends of the big trusts. The “progress” of ence is used to preach the false ermon that it is dependent upon the benevolence of the capitalists. Every invention that is killed, every scientist who loses his job, the cheap ballyhoo of the exhibition it- self, all prove how false are the claims of capitalism to being the benefactor of science. THE LATEST CONFESSION Guglielmo Marconi, the scientific front for Italian fascism, is the | latest scientist to declare that the universe is a “tormenting mystery” that will remain forever closed to man. The inability of science to solve this mystery, he concluded, ;means that we must therefore rély |on Faith. Marconi’s own work, be- fore he became the paid apologist for fascism, is the best proof that mankind deepens its knowledge of the universe through scientific in- vestigation, and no: through blind faith in either gods or “the mys- tery of the blood” that the fascists use as their basis for knowledge. Marconi has repudiated his own work because science reveals at every step that the future progress of mankind depends upon the quick and ruthless destruction of fascism and all that it represents.
