We are glad to note that the United Action Conference unites in tts ranks not only the manual workers but also the white collar and professional workers who like- wise are directly affected by the crisis. The Communist Party also fully supports the demands that you are making and as you no doubt al- ready know, has embodied in its state platform demands such as a winter appropriation of two hun- dred million dollars for the more than two million unemployed work- prs in the State of New York, as well as the demand for immediate ex. otment of the Workers Unem- ployment and Social Insurance Bill. At the same time, facing a winter of the bitterest struggles, I trust t the gubernatorial candidates e other parties and particu- 2 Socialist Party, will avail elves of this opportunity to state their position clearly in con- nection with the needs of New York workers. At such a time, for the Socialist Party to persist in its refusal to uild the united front together with the Communist Party and to draw all organizations under the Influence of the Socialist Party into ited action with workers organ- ns generally means to con- the split within the working and to render as a whole to asses of the workers a hard facing as we do the united c ive of the boss class. If this spt persists, we can hold the lead- ers of the Socialist Party responsi- ble. We know that the masses of the workers in the Socialist Party as well as within the American Federation of Labor want unity. This unity must be achieved with or without the agreement of the leaders of these organizations. Forward to a successful march for continued struggle for our rights.

AMTER National Secretary Bridgeport Workers Pledge to Struggle For Scottsboro Boys BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Oct. 25.— In a dramatic pledge of support to the International Labor Defense and the world-wide mass fight for the lives and freedom of the Scotts- boro boys, an audience of 250 per- sons, Negro and white, contributed $28 in cash and $12 in pledges, be- sides admissions taken in at the door, for the Scottsboro-Herndon defense at a meeting held here last Forced to Advertize Not even the greatest” of them have workers of every trade on their rosters. They are forced to ad- vertise, in veiled forms, of course, but even so, they often come up against honest workers, who not only refuse to snoop, but turn over their findings to the Daily Worker and other working class publica- tions. The Corporations Auxiliary has time and again been caught advertising in Hearst’s New York American, giving the box number of “American Circle.” Another ad, answered by a tool and dye maker, requested him to call at the Atlan- tic Production Companies, 1775 Broadway, which happens to be the headquarters of Corporations Auxiliary. After putting him through a most careful cross-examination, they offered him an extra $45 a month for daily reports of what he saw in the shop, As he left the office he was instructed to write a 15-page letter to a Mr. Victor Hunt about his observations in and around the Corporations Auxiliary office. He was to tell about the elevator man, the starter in the building, the meeting in Columbus Circle downstairs, what he thought: of the interview, etc. Instead, he wrote a detailed account of the af- fair and it was printed in the Daily Worker’s correspondence columns last week. On the other hand, agencies often succeed in signing up workers, de- moralized and whipped by unem- ployment. Then the matter and method of uncovering them be- comes a problem for the shops, unions, and other organizations in- volved. Robert W. Dunn of the Labor Research Association who knows more about labor spies than any other man in the country and is feared by them proportionately, has summarized his experience: “So long as there are classes in society and class struggles the spy system will continue. But the effectiveness of the spy can be neu- tralized to a certain extent by the proper practical measures on the part of the workers. How to Discover Spies “The exact technique of handling spies depends very largely on the exact conditions prevailing in the union or other organization. Unions that have reason to believe that a rat is in their midst may have some of their own trusted members follow the suspected one, to dis- cover what he does, where and with whom he lives, what are his sources of income, to what office buildings he reports regularly, and, if pos- sible, what sort of correspondence he carries on. Or they may assign the suspect to some difficult task fice that is obviously an undercover agency, the disposition of a spy varies with the organization and its immediate needs and strategy. Some merely expel him. Some hold a@ trial and make as big a news- paper exposure as possible. Some photograph the snake, give him a ‘polish’ and pitch him out of the door. Some induce him to make a full confession, giving the name of the agency he has worked for, and telling all he knows about it and the firms which employ it. As a rule, the, more publicly the spy can. be exposed the better for the move- | ment, and the more the workers are warned of the activities of the outside agency involved. His pic- ployers and their government are interested in preventing such or- ‘ganization of the workers. Natur- ally they set their stool pigeons | upon them. “But better than any negative measures aimed against individual spies and spy agencies, though they are necessary too, are the large | constructive positive measures of broadening and strengthening the ranks of the workers. Rats must be ferreted out and gotten rid of, }in any way possible. But more im- | portant is to make the fortresses of the workers—the mass organi- zations—so strong that the nib- blings cf the rats cannot undermine them.” Seven Anti-Fascists Are Sentenced to 6 Months CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 25.— Openly flaunting his antagonism to the working class, Judge George James in Middlesex Superior Court yesterday increased the sentences of the seven anti-fascist demon- strators against Hitler's propagan- dist, Hanfstaengl, to six months each and $20 fine. Sarah Barr, Jo- seph Jacobs, Arvid Johnson, Jean Lanthier, Irwin Miller, Joseph Dau- ber, and Timothy Burr were found guilty by the jury of having dis- turbed the peace and spoken with- out a permit when they protested in Harvard Square against Hanf- staengl’s propaganda visit to Har- vard last June. /Communist Nominees Will Talk in Jersey To Dye Strikers PATERSON, N. J., Oct. 25.

Odd Fellows Temple, Beaver Street, here Friday for the election of dele- gates to the conference on Oct. 31./ To East EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill., Oct. 25.— From this city, scene of one of the bloodiest boss-inspired “race riots” in the history of capitalist America and a fertile breeding ground of fascism, went forth the call last week for the forging of a united front of Socialist and Communist workers to wrest the Scottsboro boys from the hands of the Alabama lynch rulers and beat back rising fascism in this country. The call for united action was sent by the E. St. Louis Section of the Communist Party to the Fireworks Station of the Socialist Party, fol- lowing endorsement of the Scotts- boro defense and the sending of a protest telegram to Gov. B. M. Mil- ter of Alabama by rank and file So- cialist workers attending an election rally held by the Socialist branch. Officials of the Socialist branch promised to present the Communist proposals to the next regular meet- ing of the branch, Oct. 23. The call follows: Fire Works Station Branch, Socialist Party, E. &. Louis, Til. Dear Comrades: The Supreme Court of Alabama has again carried out the dictates of the southern white ruling class by upholding the decisions of the lower court condemning the Scotts- boro boys to death on December 7 of this year. Millions of workers, for more than three years have in almost every country in the world, carried on a militant struggle against the attempts of the south- ern boss class of the U. S. to lynch these nine innocent boys. Whereas the International Labor Defense has again carried this case to the Su- preme Court of the U. S., we cannot and must not forget Sacco-Vanzetti and other boss-class murderers. It has been and only will be the mass through strikes, demonstrations and protest mass meetings that will Communists Send Plea On Scotisboro Unity snatch these boys from the legal pressure of millions of workers} St. Louis S. P. lynch gallows that have been pre- |pared by American imperialism. No time must be lost to redouble our efforts, arousing new millions of workers in a mighty wave of protest against this vicious frame-up. The carrying out of this death sentence will be followed by thou- sands of Scottsboros in the result- ing wave of terror against the Ne- \gro people. In its wake, not only | the Negro toilers, but also the white | working class will be faced with a fresh outbreak of fascist terror to further split the ranks of the work ing class. Here in E. St. Louis, with its background of a Mellon-inspired race riot, its past and present Ku Klux Gangsterism, the Scottsboro | case and the struggle for their lib- eration, is a struggle against Jim- Crow, aaginst segregation and dis- crimination of the Negro people. Here in E. St. Louis the struggle for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys must be made the mighty weapon for the welding of the solidarity of the Negro and white workers. This solidarity is the only guarantee for @ successful struggle against fascist terror, for higher wages, for better working conditions and for adequate | relief for the unemployed. We call on you not to hesitate in this matter. Not one hour or one day should be allowed to slip by in juniting our forces in E. St. Louis to arouse the working class in pro- test against this monstrous frame- up. Our Section Committee of E. St. Louis calls upon your branch | to delegate a Committee to meet} } with us as soon as physically Pos- | sible to map out a joint program of action to broaden and accelerate the struggle for the freedom of the Scottsboro boys.

At that time it was clearly proven | by the testimony of the miners that the relief board was used, and was controlled hand and foot by the coal | bosses of the district. Now, after} the disclosure of findings of the in- | vestigating commission, comprised | of Louis Burnham, Civil Liberties | Union; John Edelman, of the State Planning Commission; and Douglas Faulkner, relief “expert”—a no less direct link is established between the coal operators and the “liberal” commission which held the hear- ings. Whitewashed The whitewash report finds “no evidence that the Greene County Board was dominated by the coal companies or that the board used or attempted to use the machinery of the relief administration to dis- criminate against the striking min-| p ers, Or to aid the coal companies in the economic conflict between them and their employes.” But at the hearings coal miners testified that Mr. Dodge, of the Buckeye Coal Company, sat in on important meetings of the relief board, although neither a member nor entitled to attend in any capac- ity. Especially was Mr. Dodge care- ful to be present when the purpose of the meeting was to consider the discharge of a member who had shown himself sympathetic to the United Mine Workers. Neither could the commission find any evidence that Paul Keenan “used his position as relief admin- istrator to discriminate against striking miners, or that his acts were in any way influenced by coal company officials.” Keenan Former Operator But miners had testified at the hearing that Keenan, who is a for- mer coal operator himself, refused to allow medical aid to be furnished a striking miner who had been wounded by the charge of a com- pany thug, and that the relief head brought to authorities a petition signed by 270 persons dwelling out- side of that area, asking that relief be denied strikers and their families. The report denied that relief flour was fed to hogs, but testimony at the hearing definitely established that this was done, even while min- ers and their families waited over two weeks after filing relief appli- cations before any orders were re- ceived. The testimony also proved the stand of James Isherwood, fascist commander of the State American Legion and chairman of the former relief board, on the question of re- lief to miners. Isherwood declared that “at all times we felt we were giving adequate relief to the min- Party comrades.” Florida is ahead of all the Southe ern states, in the $60,000 drive! cea Sieh Auction Sale HICAGO, Ill—A note for some of our aristocratic connisseurs.

[ANY workers are asking what is meant by a Soviet System of government. A Soviet America means work- ers’ rule and the widest democ- racy for the workers and toiling farmers. Soviets are the simplest form of government that it is possible to conceive under a class society. Soviets are simply councils of are immediately able to recall any | Soviet official who fails to carry out his proper work. Such recall is provided for through the medium mality whatever. Superiority of Soviets ‘The Soviets, because they are or- ganizations of the workers and toil- ers, are the only form of govern- ment which is international in its | basic character. Under the Soviet system, the legislative and executive functions are combined, unlike our Congres- of mass meetings without any for- | mately be realized.” The program for the social lib- | eration of the toilers raised by the Communist Party in the election campaign under the slogan of So- | viet Power is based upon the form of government which hes just been briefly outlined.
