|| CHANGE —§THE—- ! WORLD! By MICHAEL GOLD OME capitalists blame the N.R.A. and it’s famous 7-a , clause for the wave of union organization that is sweep- ing the country. This is only partially true. The workers did take this promise of the Roosevelt utopia seriously, and began to act on it. But there had also been, and still prevails, a general cut in wages of an appalling nature. Unionism has béen a revolt against such robbery, really the same fight against hunger that the unemployed haye beén making. As for Mr. Roosevelt, like all liberals, he has no program other than the empiric one of zigzagging like a drunkard between dilem- mas hoping for the best, He believes, like evéry liberal, that capital and labor have the same interests and that the capitalist state is the mediator in their occasional differences. Hence he has encouraged the trade unions, one of the partners. But the unions began to strike against their double-crossing “partners,” the bosses, This was not in the liberal program and Mr. Roosevelt is alarmed. Now the attempt is being made to have unions that will not strike, and it is only a short step from that to Hitlerism. This is a capitalist government, and when labor allows itself to be swallowed by such a state, good-bye to the last shred of democracy. Strikes are the only means labor has to defend itself against the bosses. Take this right away, by any fair-sounding methods what- ever, and you have set up a new feudal slavery. Mr. Roosevelt smiles; he is a winning personality who has the best of capitalist intentions, perhaps, but in his attempts to save capitalism, he is being pushed by the logic of his class toward fascist methods, The “Romance” of Newspaper Work UST the same, here we are in America with the idea of trade unionism sweeping every section of the population like a new religion. This country, which some people have told us was incurably middle Class, is becoming class conscious, at last. Newspapermen have organized themselves, within a year, into a national union that is now said to be the biggest section in the In- ternational of Journalists. These newspapermen formerly believed a lot of romantic hokum about their job. They often saw themselves much as Ben Hecht and other Hollywood sociologists have portrayed them—as a species of wild-eyed minor poets, careless Bohemians living a giddy and exciting life, and to hell with the consequences. This was a mighty profitable piece of romance for the publishers. The néwspapermen were really one of the most overworked lot of workers in América, Théit jobs wére néver a tenth as secure or well- paid as that of the printers who set up their copy. Romance didn’t pay for the baby’s shoes; and recently, the newspapermen have become realista, and have organized themselves, like those former romantics, the actors. Heywood Broun, as a liberal teetering from indecision to indetision, flirting coyly one day with the meanest lies and skullduggeries of capitalism, then the next day praying meekly in his private chapel of yavender-scented Christian Socialism, was a political figure who earned a great deal of bitter comment from the Daily Worker. But Mr. Broun, as president of the Newspaper Guild, and an honest militant and tireless worker for the rights of the rank and filé, really merits some praise. His political beliefs are still about as close to reality as those of Upton Sinclair or Father (God-God) Divine. But he has learned a littlé lesson in ptactical economics; he knows thai to have an honest trade union you have to fight incessantly, and maybe there is some hope for this ex-pal of Texas Guinan and Morris Hillquit. I have worked on about eight different newspapers in my time. I had known newspapérmen for years, and had long ago given up the faney they could éver be made to see how their bread was buttered. But now the trick has been done. It is a strong and serious union they have built by some miracle, All power to it; and I want to advise our speakers hereafter when attacking the capitalist press, always to remember this union of thé tank and file newspaper workers. Show these workers that you are not attacking them or the job they must do to earn a living, but that you mean to attack the bosses who employ them, and who try to bréak their union, and all unions. Industry’s Butterflies ‘HE beautiful young ladies who are cloak models also used to be con- sidered a kind of romantic butterfly of industry. But now they, too, have their organization. Recently, New York was amused by their protest against the idle society debutantes who Were flocking into the work, and giving their services free to the bosses. The motive was vanity, perhaps, or the urge to do some work to pass the terribly empty days. Anyhow, a beautiful blonde girl with dreamy blue eyes and a perfect waistline has to have her pork chops, occasionally. So the professional models who work for a living began to threaten the chisellers who did it for a lark. They threatened to invade the haunts of society, and steal the young men of thesé rich gals. They could have done it, too; any girl who really has to work for her own bread and butter develops more character and courage than a thousand sheltered mama’s pets; can outwit them, outlove them, outslug them, I am sure. Most of these handsomé cloak models come from proletarian homes, and though some of them may succumb to the endless pressure of their bosses to- wards becoming sex-tools in the compétition for the favor of buyers, most of them, are just hard-working girls making the best of a rotten system, and hating it, too, * * * The Old Chinese Wall HERE is now an Artists’ Union in New York, with something like a thousand members, a fighting union, too, with real economic de- mands. Did you think artists lived in a romantic world? If so you are mistaken; they are gypped by the galleries more badly than any miner is at his company store. Capitalism starves its cultural workers, has always done so. Architects, office workers, hospital internes, and dozens of other professions and white collar occupations are organizing into unions these days. It is exciting to watch the breaking down of the old Chinese Wall between these groups and the meh in overalls. Facing the same problems, they have begun to think and organize and fight in the same way. i : * . A New Affiliation HUMOROUS item in this great wave of class consciousness was recently brought to my knowledge. It seéms that thé Kosher Schochets of New York have organized into a union, too. They are the long-bearded, ultra-pious Jews appointed by the rabbis to kill beef according to the Jewish orthodox ritual. They are really a sort of minor rabbi; many of them perform circumcisions in their spare time. ‘Well, then, this unions that kills beef and circumcises babies re- cently applied for admission to the A. F. of L. The officials granted them a charter, and with great precision affiliated the citcumicisers to the Federation of Méat Cutters. GOULD WON’T BE DOWNED!

Hence it | is necéssary to deal with it with particular attention.” Lenin’s great work, out of print some years and now available in a new and correct translation based upon definitive texts supplied by the Marx-Engels-Léenin Institute and just off the press of International Publishers, is a direct continuation of his classic examination of bour- geois democracy and the dictator- ship of the proletariat in “State and Revolution.” “The Proletarian Revolution and Renegade Kautsky” is a brilliant polemic against the counter-revolu- tionary views which Kauteky had formulated in his book “The Dic- tatorship of the Proletariat,” pub- lished in 1918. Kautsky had tried to show, in Lenin’s words, that “the antithesis between the two socialist trends (i.e., the Bolsheviks and non- Bolsheviks) is the antithesis be- tween two fadically different methods: the democratic and the dictatorial.” Denouncing this approach as a “monstrous theoretical confusion, such a complete renunciation of Marxism that Kautsky may be said to have far excelled Bernstein,” Lenin shows that “the question of the dictatorship of the proletariat is the question of the relation be- tween the proletarian state and bourgeois rule, between proletarian democracy and bourgeois democ- racy.” The importance of this latest English translation of a Leninist classic is indicated in the introduc- tory note by the Marx-Engels-Lenin Institute: “This book assumes special signi- ficancé in the present situation, when thé development of fascism in the capitalist world confronts the proletariat more sharply every day with the necessity of choosing be- tween bourgeois democracy which leads to fascism and proletarian dic- tatorship which establishes prole- tarian democracy.” ‘New Guild’ of W.LR. Promotes Neighborhood Cultural Activities NEW YORK—To facilitate the growth and development of the cul- tural activity which the Workers International Relief has initiated and is intensifying, an economic arm known as the New Guild has been organized. The objective of the New Guild | is the building of a large subscrip- | tion audience as a basis for & sus- taining fund to help support its individual sections in their differ- ent undertakings and speed the rogress of new neighborhood work. ‘he response to such neighborhood work already in existence is proof that it is a most effective method for drawing outsiders into mass ‘or+ ganizations. The forming of a Dancé Group, for instance, with a stall nucleus, in any part of the city soon draws in many indifferent workers from the neighborhood. Later an Art Olass is added, attracting still more such workers and thus a WIR Brafich is established where it was impossible to gain a foothold before. The indifferent workers become WIR enthusiasts. However, the groups do not be- come self-supporting overnight. The problem of funds and guiding forces retards the development of a broad cultural front. Now, with the material assistance which the New Guild will provide, the spread of such activity is practically limit- less. A New Guild subscription is 50¢, entitling one to a 20 per cent dis- count on all productions performed by any of its member sections or its own affairs. The sections comprising the New Guild are: Workers Lab. Theatre, Film and Photo League, Social Repertory Theatre, W.LR. Band, Workers Film, Workers Art School, Dance Section, Dramatic Section. A monthly bulletin will be sent to members informing them of progress of new neighborhood work group, lecal and national WIR cul- tural news of interest in general. Twenty-one students have been expelled from City College for pro- testing against fascism. “I hope more people—especially students— were interested in helping you,” writes Eugene Tepley, of Boulder Colo.

What's Doing in Hie Workers Schools of the U. S. DRIVE NEARS SUCCESSFUL BND Last week the committee in charge of the Daily Worker-Na- tional Training School Drive took stock of the situation and discovered that with only three weeks to go there was still half of the quota to be filled. The committee fur- ther discovered that collections of $250 a week would be needed to ful- fill the quota of $1500 to which the students of the School had pledged themselves, The committee imme- diately started what it called an “intensification campaign.” Com- Tade Barnés, the chairman of the committee, visited every classroom and made a special appeal to the students and instructors. The School responded by collecting the necessary $250 for the week, mak- ing the total over $1000. The drive is playing a very im- portant and serious part in the stu- dents’ school life. There is hardly a class that hasn’t challenged or been challenged by another class to Socialist competition. The class in Principles of Com- munism, No. 9, Chas. Elstein, in- structor, is now in the lead with a total of $41.43. BASIC LITERATURE DRIVE This term the school is conduct- ing an extended drive in the sale of basic literature. For example, 800 October “Communists,” 400 copies of Stalin's “October Revolution” and 750 Stalin’s “Foundations of Leninism” were sold in the classes. Max Bedacht, General Secretary of International Workers Order, will lecturé on “New Political Perspec- tives in Germany,” at the Workers School Forum, Sunday, Nov. %, at 8:30 p. m. Admission 25 cents. Seaak San SPECIAL COURSES AT PHILADELPHIA WORKERS SCHOOL A special class for members of tfade unions is being organized to teach parliamentary procedure and public speaking by the Philadelphia Workers School, 908 Chestnut St. The course is to begin Saturday af- ternoon, Noy. 24, at 2 p.m. It is intended to train especially those workers in the American Federation of Labor unions who find them- selves handicapped by lack of knowledge of trade union procedure. Registration for the class is now open. There is also being organized a class in labor defense. +e We have received the student analysis of the Boston Workers School for the Fall term. The total registration for the term is 161, of which 40 per cefit are registered for Principles of Communism. The great majority of the students are members of mass organizations, trade unions, and the Party and 6h oe Fe ay eae | A new four-week course in Negro problems is being organized at the Brownsville Workers School, 1855 Pitkin Avenue. The first begins Thursday, Nov. 22, at 8:40 p. m. Registration is now going on. eae On Nov. 18, Schenectady will open its first Section Functionaries School ever held in that Section. This school will be held on Sun- days for eight consecutive weeks. The following courses will be given: Trade Union Strategy and Tactics, Principles of Organization, Program of the C. I, ete. | a eae A WORKERS SCHOOL IN WASHINGTON, D. C. The Washington Workers School, at 513 F. Street, N. W., is now open for registration. The School is situated near the business district and within walking distance from most of the union halls. The courses to be taught at the school are: Trade Union Problems, Elements of Political Economy, Principles of Communism, Negro Problems and others. The tuition fees for these courses is $1.50 for 10 weeks. ree Rane REGISTRATION DOUBLED AT CHICAGO WORKERS SCHOOL The Central School in Chicago doubled its registration for the Fall tert, The Sotith Chicago enroll- ment is 68 studénts, mostly steel workers. The Gary School will open its winter term in the middle of December. There is now a cam- paign on for the School. The total number of students in all of the schools is close to 800. On the basis of the successful term in the cen- tral school the school committee is confident of getting at least 700 students in the central school next. semester. The students of the Chicago Workers School unanimously adopt- ed a résolution protesting the dis- tortions of Lenin’s works in Hearst newspapers. Committees of stu- dents have gone to the editor with the evidence and have succeeded in creating quite a stir. The student council is undertaking this activity with a great deal of enthusiasm. They are planning to print stickers with the correct quotations from Lenin, and call it, “The Hearst Press Lies.” All Workers Schools are urged to send similar protests, TUNING IN 7:00-WEAP—King’s Guard Quartet WOR—Sports Resumé—Ford Frick ‘WdZ—Amos'n’ Andy—Sketeh WABO—Myrt and Marge—Sketch 1:15-WEAF—Gene and Glenn—Skétch ‘WOR—Comedy; Music WJZ—To be announced WABC—Just Plain Bill—Bketeh 7:30-WEAF—The 44 Legislatures of 1935— Henry W.

Production of Fascist Movie ‘Call to Arms’ Protested by Students BOSTON.—Conferring at Phillips Brooks House at Harvard Uni- versity, students of various nearby colleges heard David Platt of New York, executive secretary of the Na- tional Film and Photo League, de- scribe the anti-tadical motion pic- ture, “Call to Arms,” now being pro- duced by the Columbia Pictures Corporation of New York and Hol- lywood. Columbia officials had telegraphed to the National Film and Photo League, organizers of a protest movement against the film, offering to eliminate objectionable portions, it was evident from the studio's own description that the only way to eliminate the propaganda and in- citement against militant labor would be to scrap the film entirely. The students voted unanimously to register their endorsement of the position of the National Film and Photo League and today sent the following telegram: “Harry Cohn, Columbia Pictures Corporation, 729 Seventh Avenue, N. Y. “Meeting at Phillips Brooks House, Harvard University, Stu- dents of Harvard, Radcliffe, Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology, Boston University, Tufts, Simmons, Bennington, Mt.

Spivak on “Plotting the American Pogroms,” appearing weekly in The New Masses, through whose courtesy the Daily Worker has been given permis- sion to reprint them simultane- ously. In his previous articles, Spivak produced overwhelming proof of widespread and organ- ized anti-Semitic activities in this country, closely linked up with Nazi Germany, operating under various disguises such as the Order og "76, Silver Shirts, etc., and involving individuals like former Congressman Louis T. McFadden of Pennsylvania, Ralph | Easley, chairman of the Execu- | tive Council of the National Civic Federation, George Sylvester | Viereck, active Nazi propogandist | head of the Youth Movement. In this article | Spivak turns his attention to Nazi | Propaganda in our schools and colleges, exposing in the previous instalments, the vicious activities of the Paul Reveres, student or- ganization, as well as the existence of Nazi cells and pro-Nazi pro- fessors, * * . By JOHN L. SPIVA | Int, HEN I called the German Em- bassy for an appointment with | the Ambassador, his secretary hesi- | tated when he heard the name. | “Oh! Spivak. Well, the Ambas- | sador is not in just now. Perhaps | you could call in an hour?” In an hour I called again. “Perhaps you had better see Dr. | Rudolph Leitner, the Ambassador's | chief aid,” he suggested. Dr. Leitner was at the Chancery | next to the Embassy building on | | Massachusetts Avenue. I was ush- ered into a room where an engray- ing of Hindenburg hung on a wall draped with black bunting. On the opposite wall was an oil por- | trait of Hitler, smiling smugly out | of his frame. Gustave Struve, private secretary to the German Ambassador ap- peared in the doorway. “IT am sorry,” he said, eyeing me with a puzzled air, “I did not un-| derstand just what you wanted.” “The New Masses has been run- | ning a series of articles on anti- | semitism in the United States. A} great deal of the evidence shows | that much of it is due to German | agents—” The Ambassador's secretary raised his hands in horror. “Oh, no! No!” he exclaimed. | “Well, at any rate, I thought the | German Ambassador should be | given a chance to explain——” | “That is not a matter for the Ambassador to make statements on. We have no German agents in this country. We do not mix in the} internal affairs of America.” “Yes, of course. But tell me, are the German Consuls in the United | States under the German Em- bassy?” “Certainly.” “Dr. Kiep, the German Consul- General in New York City, gave| Father Gross, a Catholic priest of Perth Amboy, N. J., $500 to print and distribute anti-semitic propa- | ganda.” “That has been published——” “That's right.” The secretary waved a hand. “Ah, but that is so far back. I really do not know about it.” “And a man named Hunter of the Industrial Defense Association in Boston”—Struve nodded—“dis- cussed with Dr. Tippleskirsch, the | German Consul in Boston, the prob- lem of getting money from Ger- many to organize an anti-semitic campaign in this country.” “Dr. Tippleskirsch! That cannot be. “I'm sorry, I have Mr. Hunter’s letter telling about it.” “But that cannot be,” he repeated. | “Excuse me, maybe I better see Dr. Leitner.” eT es HE secretary vanished. In about five minutes he returned. | “We do nothing to interfere with | the affairs of this country,” he re- | peated vigorously. | “But the German Consul gave money for anti-semitie propa+ ganda—” “Ach!” he exclaimed irritably. “We have no money to spend. We cannot get money here even for important things. All we’ can get is our salaries. We cannot get gold from Germany. What is wrong in giving people help to write good things about Germany which is be- ing attacked by the Jews? Every country gives money to write good things about it. I suppose if we examine the American Embassy in Germany we could find the same | thing—carrying on propaganda. The Jews—they are responsible, This | propaganda question has already been discussed by the American Ambassador in Berlin——” He caught himself, as though he had said too much and became} quiet, staring at the picture of Hit- | ler looking down at us. “I have evidence that German agents are not only carrying on | by del HE ALWAYS GIVES US OUR LUNCH!

These are just the questions I should like to see the Ambassador about. There seems to be plenty of evidence that German agents are carrying on anti-semitic work, dir- ected by Germany Ambassador cannot statements abo: that,” he with finality. “But I will see and talk to Dr. Leitner. Maybe you will call again, eh?” That afternoon I called again. ‘An Mr, Spivak,” his voice purred. “The Ambassador is so sorry. He cannot see you today.” “You mean that the Ambassador vould be happier if he did not see Stahlhelm in make “That is right.” “Perhaps I could see Dr, Leitner?” “Ah, no; I have already said too much. Please, we do not want to say anything. Anything we say the Jews will attack us.” But——” “We do not mix in America’s ine ternal affairs,” he almost shouted. We have a Jewish problem in Ger- | many and we have handled it. That is our business. But we do not want to say anything because the Jews are attacking Germany!” “It sounds like the Jews are at- tacking Germany—that’s the bur- den of your refrain?” “Yah!” he exclaimed. “The Jews!” And with that he hung up. “FHE Jews are attacking Ger- many.” Of this there is no evidence. But that Nazis are at- tacking Jews not only in Germany but in the United States there is plenty of evidence. The effects of the Nasi propaganda is widespread. Everywhere—in the business, the cultural worlds, there is the grow- ing bitterness resulting from preaching the “hate-the-Jew” creed, the same sort of propaganda being distributed by the Paul Reveres 4s, for instance, the following which I found at the University of Cali- fornia: Gentiles of the World: Realize: That we are slaves to the International Jewish bankers who mislead all the governments by their money control. These Jewish powers use our money which they have, with the help of their payed agents, stolen from us under false pretensions. Realize: That J. P. Morgan and others are only the gentile front of the Rothschilds and other Jewish international bankers. . . Jews hate Gentiles and cheat them whenever they can .... they demoralize our youth with lewd motion pictures and misin- form us through sensational newspapers which they control through their money power. Realize: That Communism and Bolshevism were never meant to help the poor, but under Jewish leadership they preach class hatred between Gentiles. . . In- ternational Jewry and their payed agents are the only winner when Gentiles fight each other. How many millions of Gentile girls’ lives have been spoiled by Jews who protect their women but see in every Gentile girl their rightful prey... The Jews are not superior but they are fresh, indecent, con- ceited and know no scruples. The Jews are not of the white race, they are semites (half-niggers). Gentiles Beware of the Jewish Denomination. P. S. Take this letter most seri- ously, copy it ten times and send it to your friends urging them to send it on. It must reach every Gentile home so quickly as pos- sible. Due to their unfair business methods the Germans have ex- pelled the Jews from places of trust and has demanded of them to either conduct their business upon the methods of that country or to find some other place to do their cheating. Let us be as good citizens to out country as Adolph Hitler is to his. Let us all be American Hitlers. So the Nazi-directed anti-semitis propagandists carry on their work, leaving their effects upon the teachers in the collegés, universities and public schools. Next week Mr, Spivak in his concluding article will tell of the activities of another secret espion- age society, the Crusader White Shirts, of its activities in the Middle West and of the natoinally known leader who has been se- cretly working with the Silver Shirts to spread the “Hate-the- Jew” creed.
