ADVANCE DATE
OF RUTHENDERG
CASE HEARING
May Come Up Today at
Lansing, Mich.
lspeelaI 70 The Daily wOrkerl


LANSING, Mich, Oct. is
The date of the hearing in the
case of the state Of Michigan
against c. e. Ruthenberg, exec
utive secretary of the Workers
Party, whose appeal against
conviction of the charge of "as-
sennbIing with" the Communist
Party at Bridgeman comes be-
fore the supreme court, has
been advanced and the hearing
will now take place either to-
morrow afternoon or Friday
morning.
Keep Up the Attack.
A news item appearing here de-
clares ut is understood that, if the
Ruthenberg conviction is affirmed by
the Supreme Court, the other Com
munists, including William z. Foster,
will be brought to trial.
The defense contends in the brief
filed with the Supreme Court that
there can be no such crime as "as-
sembling with" The prosecution evil
IDENTIFY was unable to meet the legal
arguments of the appeal brief and sub
stituted for this a denunciation of
the defense declaring of Ruthenberg's
attorneys argument that the criminal
syndicalist law is unconstitutional that
The (Ruthenberg) should spurn any
assistance that document might afford
him..
In the light Of the long and earnest
arguments by President Coolidge and
candidate Davis about the protection
afforded every citizen by the constitu-
ton it is rather a new departure for
an attorney for the state to argue
that defendant should not raise a
constitutional question in his defense
and protest against illegal action by
officers of the law.

SHOWS WHAT THE

NOT KNOW ABOUT COMMUNISM

vocated publicly that the workers
should end the rule of their class en-
envy in control of the government
They advocated publicly the end of
the profit system of industry they ad.
yocated publicly the Communist prin.
ciples that the capitalist system must
give way to a new and better social
and that the dynamic force which
must and would bring this change is
the working class struggling as a
class against their exploiters and Cd,
pressors.
"They worked in the open!" Yes,
they are working in the open in spite
Of the black hundred terroristic me-
thods Of Spy Spolansky and his kind.
The Communist movement in the
United States is today fighting in the
open. The Workers Party is Com
munist Party-the Communist Party
in the United States. 1t advocates
and fights for it's principles openly
before the eyes of the whole working
class of the United States.
Net conspiracy, not secret ma
chinations are the methods of Commu-
nism. The Communists are proud to
stand before the whole working class
advocating and unfolding their prin-
ciples and fighting for the support of
those principles by the working mass
es who thru their power viii give
them life and reality.
It is not a conspiracy which is
laundering at the doors of capitalism,
but an invincible social force.

A motion that McAndrew be re-
quested to appear at the next meeting
Of the committee on administration
and fight the matter out was introduc-
ed by James Mullenbach, and carried
by the committees.
This means that McAndrew will be
forced either to present evidence that
he has some backing for the state
ments which he has made, alleging
that teachers are backing him in his
fight, or else Gdmit that HIS claims to
support among the teachers are pre-

they must accept the conditions that
the czars of industry found possible
to impose. That when the capitalist
cEars could make no profits they could
go out on the streets ana starve.
These Russian workers know that
the dictatorship Of the proletariat
which rules there regards and re.
spects the rights Of the workers and
uses its power to suppress the exploit
ers. They know that in the Russian
factories the workers stand erect, free
men. participating in the management
and direction OF the factory, molding
a new industrial order which is end
ing forever their status of wage slav-
cry and creating a new social order
of free men
And the best answer to Spy Spolan-
sky's stream of Russian agitators
flowing into the United States is that
they are not needed. American in.
dustry is producing Communist agita-
tors so fast that it would be unneces-
sary to import them even if there
we're agitators who could be imported.
It is the experience Of the workers in
the steel mills, on the railroads, in the
mines, that is making them the en-
emies of the capitalist system. Spy
Spolansky and the higher-ups of the
governmental machine which exists to
protect capitalism might deport every
Communist in the United States, ma
tive or foreign born, and six months
later Spy Spolansky could write an.
other romance about the Red Men
ace" because American industry
would create more Communists and
they would organize themselves for
the struggle against the capitalist sys-
tenn.
In the Open.
There is one little slip which Spy
Spolansky made in the second install
ment of his romance which we are
very much surprised at.
After drawing lurid picture Of Sc.
cret conspiracy for the purpose of
overthrowing the government by force
and violence our crusader against the
reds" is forced to admit in describing
the organization and work of the Com
munist Party in 1919, they worked in
the open"
"They worked in the openl" That
one little phrase by Spy Spolansky
is like a bright shaft of sunlight cut

half-truths, misrepresentation, distor-
lions and untruths Of which Spolan.
sky's efforts to manufacture the
great conspiracy" for the delectation
of the gullible capitalist newspaper
readers consists.
"They worked in the open!" Yes,
the Communists held a public conven-
ton at which they organized their
party. They established their head
quarters openly. They published their
newspapers and sent them broadcast
thru the mails. They had branches
organized all over the country holding
their meetings in public halls inviting
the workers to visit them. They held
hundreds, yes, thousands of mass
meetings to which all workers were
invited to come and hear what Com.
munism stood for and what it was
fighting for. Yes, Spy Spolansky,
