Hall.
William Weinstone, representing
the international Workers Aid, ad-
dressed the conference on the sit

being done by the international
Workers Aid. He pointed out that

ton that is feeding the German
workers.
1t is worldwide in organization

Being the continuation OF the re-
port given by Comrade Gregory
Zinoviev, chairman Of the COmmun-
list International, at the city meet
ing of the Collective Bureaus of
the Leningrad Communist Party
Organization.
n OMRADES, it seems to me that
~ these words contain the solu-
ton of the riddle offered by the
whole situation. At the Tenth
Party Congress we passed an ex-
cellent resolution on the workers
democracy, and passed it ALMOST
unanimously. And upon this the
leader and master of the Party step
ped forward and said: Let us not
forget that we need about two years
to set the works and factories going
again to any extent, and that then
we shall receive a hundred times
more support from the workers, then
the workers will cease to be indiffer-
emit, and new conditions will form in
the Party.
Sole MARKHAM Reply.
Comrades, to me this appears to
be the sole correct, the sole digni-
fed, and the sole MARKHAM reply to
the question upon which we are en-
gaged-why we have raised the
question Of the workers democracy
at precisely the present juncture.
There are some among US who
have lost their faith in the revolu-
ton and in their own Party, and
who have become q prey to ideas
inducing them to suspect some piece
of diplomacy behind every decision
of the Central Committee of theft
own Party, instead of seeking the
reason for this or that decision Of
the Party, as a Marxist should, in
the objective conditions, in the eco
nomic situation, and in the position
of the whole working class.
The Party is nothing more MOI
less than a part of the working
class. All events happening in the
working class are mirrored in one
way or another in our rarity. The
debates within the Party reflect II
80 out of 100 cases, important
events occurring among the working
class. This applies equally to oul
present debate.
And Comrade Lenin did not make
any mistake as to the time required
for the development. He said tha-
one or two years would pass. Jus
slightly over two years have passed
since that time.
| During this period the situation
has changed among the working
class. Whole strata of non-partisal
workers have developed culturally
and our Party mas grown as wei
there it is not a question of guam
tity-our working class has not in
creased much numerically-but o

found responsible for having sent to
his Rome newspaper a faithful ac-
count of the terroristic electoral ac-
tivities by the fascist in his district
was summoned by the fascist to
their quarters and received sever
fiogging.
In another locality, a notary, for
having complied with a demand to
attest the signature Of an opposition
candidate, was also flogged and ban
ished from his town. According to
the new fascist Jurisprudence, people
responsible for such crimes as l
have mentioned do not receive any
punishment, and it is a generally
established rule IN the fascist press
to openly justify such crimes on the
ground that they are done for spa
triotic purposes Fifty per cent of
the crimes are perpetrated with the
direct participation of the fascist
militia, so it can be easily realized
why in ninety cases out of a hun
dred people responsible for such
crimes can elude the sanctions OF
justice. And this is the real ex-
PLANTATION for the fact that people
here very seldom react against their
fascist offenders who, as a conse-
quence, become every day more anC
more aggressive and criminal The
Italian people have entirely lost
their liberty, and do not see any
sign that the end of their slavery
is getting near.

MEMPHIS READY FOR BIG SERIES Fort Worth Will Have Edge On Chicks In
 Dope

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Sept. 23.-Mem- phis tonight was "set and ready" for the opening tomorrow of the Southern baseball classic-the annual Dixie series for the class A championship of the south-with a hearty welcome but a diamond battle royal awaiting the invading Texas league pennant win ners the Fort Worth Panthers, con testants with the Memphis Chickasaws, Southern association champions, for the coveted title.
 John Dobbs, Chickasaw chieftain. announced his team ready for the fray and confident; and the same word came from Jake Atz, Panther leader. en route tonight with his crew aboard a special train with several hundred followers from the Texas city.
 The Texans will arrive early tomer- row.
 Good Weather Prospect
 Ideal baseball weather was in pros pect for the opening tilt of the series The overnight forecast was for flair and warmer"
 The pitching selection for the Mem phis team still was doubtful tonight but with Otto Merz, a right handler likely to draw the assignment to Op- pose Bugs" Pate, Fort Worth ace. Pate is a left handler.
 Preparations have been made to ac- commodate a record crowd with the advance ticket sale indicating that all of the 14,000 seats will be taken. To avoid conflict with the events Sched- uled at the Tri-State fair, now under way, the time of starting the games here has been fixed for 8 :45 p. m.
 Fort Worth Has Edge
 Comparative figures-so far as fig ures for the two leagues can be taken as comparative-give Fort Worth the edge in team fielding and Memphis in team batting but with Fort Worth boosting seven players in the select list of .hitters with averages of 300 or better-one more than Memphis. Clar- ence Kraft, recently crowned minor league home run king, heads the list of Fort Worth's heavy hitters.
 In team batting in the Southern, Memphis finished the season with a the Texas league with .2S4. The Fort NOrIh. ledmS lleluihS percentage IS .970 and Memphis 963.
 Under the schedule adopted games will be paved here tomorrow and Thursday, Friday will be an off-day. Games will be played in Fort Worth Saturday, Sunday and Monday with the sixth game in Memphis Wednes- day.
 The site of the seventh game, if necessary, will be decided by the flip of a coin.

TEAM
 SHOWS UP GOOD

DAVIDSON, N. C., Sept 23.-(Spe- cinl. )-The record of over ten years of defeatless football on a Davidson field was upheld, the. christening of the new Richardson field observed, and the 1924 North Carolina football season opened, when Davidson won by a 14-0 score over the Elon team here Saturday. With the mud still on their uniforms and the memory of the slime and mire still fresh, the Davidson team and the Da- vidson student body have all turned to the approaching battle with the Pres byterian College of South Carolina at Asheville on Saturday, September 27.
 The Davidson team came out of their opening game with a two-touchdown and one safety margin, greatly lowered by the condition of the field Both the coaches are pleased with the show ing of the Davidson team Saturday, al- though they assert that the score by no means shows the difference between the two organizations. The sticky mud slowed up the offensive of both clubs, but proved a blessing in disguise to the heavier Elon line. Two of Davidson S best forwards were out of the game oaa account of injury and illness.

 Dodgers Bunch Hits
 The Dodgers buncled two doubles and two singles off Keen in the first inning for three runs, but thereafter they were kept away from the plate by brilliant fielding until the eighth in ming, when the score was tied at four all on Johnston's single, Griffith's sac rifice and Stocks hit. Wheat made three doubles, only one of which counted in the scoring, catches of liners by Grantham and Adams saved Keen at critical times.
