fering the greatest discomfort, at i'm
inent risk of death, carrying on his
war against the Manchu tyrants until
they were overthrown, and ever since
he has stood like the rock Of Gibraltar
against the capitalist pirates of the
world who have robbed and pIundered
his people.
Communists are not surprised ITO
see Willard and his organ come out
openly for the Chinese Fascist Our
liberals claim to be against violence,
and dictatorship. But they scout the
idea that the capitalist government Of
the United States is a dictatorship.
1t is democracy in their eyes tho 1t
can be improved. Hence LaFollette.
They abhor violence but if they must
have violence they prefer that It
should be capitalist violence. Hence
the preference given to the opponents
Of DR.. Sun Vat Sen.
This interesting question will not
be pursued farther here for the pres
ent, but let us assume out of charity
for Willard that his vicious and stupid
attack on the Chinese revolutionary
leader. was due to irritation over Sun

Ramsay MacDonald-the LaFollette
of Great Britain-and not to a sus;

The Real Workers Party

There is no better evidence of the fact that the
Communists correct in their policy of staying
in and building up their movement among the la
Dor unions, than the news from New York City
showing how the workers in the clothing industry
are using their Trade Union Educational League
groups to rally support for the Workers Party.
In spite of the fact that the officials of even the
supposed radical Amalgamated Clothing Workers
have gone over to the LaFollette camp and have
tried to drive the membership to support his fake
labor program, the membership grouped around the
Trade Union Educational League raised a revolt
and are holding under their own auspices many
meetings every night all over New York City in be
half of the Workers Party.
How much good it has done Sigman of the In
ternational Ladies' Garment Workers and Kauf
man, Of the Furriers. to expe the revolution from
the unions they consider as their private property
is shown by the way the left wing groups in these
unions are waging wide campaign, in the union
and upon the streets and in halls for the party of
Communism, the Workers Party
In both these unions supposedly nailed down
and clinched on the other side by yellow socialist
reactionaries Of the Abe Cahan school of mendac
ity, strong bodies of workers are rallied to the
party, auto trucks are hired, platforms provided
and everywhere members of the union arise to take
the lead in the fight for a party which makes its
basic demand the proletarian dictatorship.
We see two things in this, first that it is just
impossible to stop really revolutionary political
party from working in the unions as it it to stop
it working in society as whole; second that the
Communists are pursuing the correct tactic in
America by staying in the unions and winning the
workers in them for revolution regardless of
whether officials like it or not.

READ THE DAILY WORKER
The Dictatorship at Gary

There is no such animal as the capitalist dicta-
torship, according to those who allege that the
Communists are extraordinarily full Of gall for
openly advocating the dictatorship of the prole-
tariat
Unfortunately, such critics disagree with facts.
We have not got to go further than Gary, Indiana,
nor to any history remote than yesterday for
clear example Of the capitalist dictatorship.
Some nameess white collar underling of the
Steel Trust who runs the educational department
of the capitalist dictatorship in Gary, caused the
withdrawal of the lease held by the Workers Party
on the auditorium of the Froebel high school, be-
cause he learned that Foster, Communist candidate
for president and organizer of steel workers, was
going to speak there.
This accompanied by the force department
of the capitalist dictatorship arresting two Com
munists who were distributing the DAILY
WORKER. And inside the steel mills the bosses
of the United States Steel corporation, the steel
and iron department of the capitalist dictatorship
have issued orders that any worker caught reading
the DAILY WORKER will be fired.
This is the kind of ''white terror" the workers
face day after day and year after year. Millions
of them take it for granted. Only the Communists
know how and show how to abolish it. Nobody
else knows or gives tinker's damn.
But when the Communists openly state that the
only solution is the dictatorship of the proletariat
host of ''libertarans" 'humanitarians" and SEN
timental boobs and bourgeois spring up wildly pro-
testing. And they well, they are the pacifstindi-
alliberty department of the capitalist dicta-
torship. Nothing more, nothing less

Ten Commandments
Religious Propaganda
for the Masses
By JOHN scar.

The Ten Commandments, Q phcto-
play by Jeanne MacPhersone (Cecil
B. DeMille), is an elaborate and
costly piece of propaganda for the
peoples opium" Elaborate and
costly, and yet lacking in any quality
Of artistic distinction or realism, espe,
cially in the second or principal soc
ton of the picture.
The first part or prologue depicts
the biblical story Of Exodus. The
fight OF the children of Israel and
their pursuit by Pharaoh's chariots
afford an opportunity for some gor-
geous pageants in colors and a re-
markable piece Of trick photography
in the opening and closing Of the
waters of the Red Sea. Moses Is
shown receiving the tablets Of the law
on Sinai amid much firework on the
screen and great uproar from the or
chestra and the back-stage noiseL
battery. He descends and finds to his
horror that the people have already
become addicted to another and uH-
authorized kind of dope, so he nies
into rage, smashes the holy dope
stone, exhorts the people to repent
ance and destroys the golden calf.
The plot Of the principal section
is laid in present-day America. It is
the story Of young man who, irked
by the restrictions Of a fanatically
pious mother, SCOTS at her religion
and sets out with the avowed intep-
ton of breaking all the ten command
ments. He prospers as grating
building contractor, but finally the
collapse of some rotten concrete In
church he\is building kills his
mother. Next. learning that his light
of-love has infected him with leprosy,
he kills her, and loses his own life
while attempting to escape in a motor
boat. His pious brother is rewarded
for his sanctimonious sentimentality
by receiving the repentant widow,
who is miraculously healed of leprosy.
which she had developed overnight(i).
A touching" scene is that wherein
the holy brother (who is carpenter,
by the wayD takes his erring sister
in-law, chilled and drenched by ter
rifle storm, into his home. AS a first
aid measure against the effects OF
severe exposure he sits down and
reads to her from the Bible! This
part is atrociously written and di-
rected, in the style of the ten-twenty-
thirt' blood-and-thunde "mellerdram.
mers" OF twenty-five or thirty years
ago.
Especially amusing to a Commun.
list are those titles which denounce
idoIatry of the golden calf. Surely TO-

The Fascist cabinet of Italy decided to recog-
nize titles of nobility conferred by the Vatican.
These titles had hitherto been ignored by the
italian government since the fall of the temporal
power of the church. His Holiness will no longer
be considered foreign potentate by Mussolini,
and the names of the families honored or dis
honored by papal titles will be inscribed in the
Golden Book of the Italian mobility. The stock of
our American Papal Knights should now rise and
the female aristocrat chasers of this country will
not be obliged to go to Europe for thrills in case
the Prince of Wales is otherwise engaged.
