81 CHARLES KoLARIK

IN the August oath issue Of the
l daily Spravedlnost", the Czecho-
Slovak daily, we find a proclamation
to the Czechoslovak workers, which
is peculiar instrument of guidance"
to the workers of that nationality in
the present maze of political develop
ments in this country. A more out
spoken "centrist" tendency, than ex-
pressed in this document one could
hardly seek to find. And this comes
from a clique, that still feigns its at
tachment to the Third International,
the Russian Revolution and the Soviet
Republic.
The careful reader of the DAILY
WORKER will be sufficiently informed
as to the developments in the Czecho-
slovak Section of the Workers Party,
which after a deplorably long period
of internal squables has freed itself
of the UNI, or to be more exact,
anti-communistic elements. This
clique, "re-organized" under the old
name "Czechoslovak MARKHAM Fedora
ton" assumed by the Czechoslovak
comrades after the withdrawal from
the Socialist Party, and before the
formation Of our present Communist
Workers Party, has succeeded, by
means of legalistic trickery, to get
away the control of the daily "Spra-
vedlnost" and the by-weekly "Zajmy
Lidu" from the Czechoslovak Section
of the party, to use these organs for
the PRONUNCIATION of their treacherous,
centrist propaganda.
To the student of Marxism and Len
inism, as applied to the development
within the world Communist move
ment, this incident will prove very H.
Illuminating and instructive. The proc.
lamation of the Czechoslovak MARX
Ian" Federation really is a jewel of
centrist, pseudo-marxian theology.
This proclamation reads as follows:
'In this years presidential cleo
lions the American workers have a
choice of three tickets, i.e., the indie

the Workers Party, lead by Com.
Foster, and the .Socialist-Labor
Party, lead by John. There is no
doubt today, that from these three
presidential candidates LaFollette
will draw vast majority of votes,
such majority, that it is possible
to speak of him as labor-candidate,
altho, in the correct sense of the
word he cannot be regarded as such.
And for the very reason that or
ganized labor accepts him in such
a manner that the worker, educated
in Europe, stands before such a
recommendation in doubts, situa-
ton arises, which is not at all easy
for assuming a correct attitude.
'LaFollette is not an adherent to
the teachings of Marx, but, if ac-
septed by Debs and such a progress
sive organization as the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers of Amer
lea, even blind man must see,
that behind the candidacy of La

But the venomous headlines not

lines were the best publicity as yet
given to the Communist movement
here.

Gitlow said was that the republican,

not representative of the working
class. He threw no mud. He just re.

parties and of the individual candi-

ARREST WORKERS
PARTY SPEAKERS
AT STREET MEET
Then Cops Pick on a La
Toilette Speaker

George Maurer and d. e. Farley,
speakers for the Workers Party, were
arrested recently on the corner of
62nd and Halsted streets on the
charge of blocking traffic." an absurd
charge to anyone who would take a
good look at the corner.
Crowd With Speakers.
Kitty Harris, in opening the meet
ing, was Immediately told by cops
that she would have to have a permit,
but she introduced George Maurer,
who, the cops advised, could not speak.
Maurer continued to speak and the
cops nabbed him. No sooner had he
been taken off the platform than
Farley jumped up and announced that
the meeting would keep on. The
crowd applauded this action.
While the cop telephoned for the
police wagon, some plain clothes men
came along and picked Maurer up in
the Black Maria. To make the sweep
clean, the wagon travelled down a few
blocks and picked up a LaFollette
speaker!
Bob'sN Man Means.
The LaFollette man protested that
he had permit, but to no avail, and
the three speakers were showed into
a cell without an opportunity to tel
ephone. Finally they were brought
up to the sergeant who looked them
over and yawned. "Well," he said,
81 don't think that they want to wreck
anything. Turn them loose"
The Workers Party intends to hold
another meeting on the same corner
on Thursday, September 4, with
enough speakers to conduct little
free speech fight until the right of the
Communists to hold meetings in any
part OF the city without the necessity
OF permit is firmly established in
the minds of the police officials OF
Chicago.

In making this ruling the Central
Executive Committee does so in order
that in the future there can be no
excuse for the appearance of counter
revolutionary material in any organ Of
the Workers Party. The responsible
lily of the Central Executive Commit
tee is not ended if such a counter
revolutionary advertisement as that Of
Horthy bonds appears and then re-
pudiating editorial appears in the
same paper. 1t is the fact that such
an advertisement could appear at all
that the Central Executive Commit
tee must deal with. 1t and it alone is
responsible before the Communist In
ternational for conducting the Party
press\ so that such incidents as the
appearance of the Horthy advertise
ment in the Volkszeitung cannot, un-
der any conceivable circumstances to
take place. While it cannot now after
the fact that the Horthy advertise
ment appeared in the Volkszeitung, it
expresses the earnest hope that by
establishing the responsibility of
Party member for each issue of Par
ty paper which appears such a trans
gression against the revolutionary
movement will not happen in the
future.

Editorial from the New York VoIks-
zeitung Of August 2.
Translation by comrade Ludwig Lore.

The American press is just at pre-
sent being used for a widespread adj
vertisement campaign for the sale of
the tx pct. national loan of the King
dom of Hungary. Everywhere one
will find these advertisements, which
recommend this gilt edge" security
to the prudent saver, because he will
nowhere find an equal return for
safely invested capital. We regret to
say that one of these advertisements.
for money to be used to support the
damnable Horthy system also found
its way into the columns of the New
York Volkzeitung. For this reason we
consider it to be our special duty to
warn our readers against the buying
of these securities, and to say openly
that every direct or indirect support
of .present-day Hungary is a counter
revolutionary act, an act which no
class-conscious worker would know
ingly commit
Horthy is, perhaps the worst blood
hound among those who sit in the
seats of the mighty at the present
time. In Hungary, today, absolute
autocracy reigns supreme. In Hun
gary no radical movement can become
active. Even the Social-Democracy
which in Hungary has become excep-
tionally reformistic and careful, must
tolerate the constant supervision of
the authorities, supervision that ex-
ceeds even that in Russia under the
reign of the Gar. Furthermore, this
same Hungarian Social-Democracy en-
joys this poor remnant of showroom
only because it daily emphasizes its
unalterable enmity to Communism,
and actively fights the forces of the
Communist movement.
In Hungary every radical worker
is at the mercy of the authorities. The
labor unions live and exist only mas
much as they expressly profess po-
litical neutrality, and decline any CO.
operation with the Social-Democracy
The Co-operatives enjoy a similar
measure of police and legal super
vision. Only recently number of CO.
operatives were dissolved, and their
property confiscated because the gov
eminent had treason to suspect" that
they were working hand in hand with
the Social-Democracy
The fate of our Communist com
rades need hardly be described to
our readers. 1t is impossible to tell
how many ten-thousands of our COM
rades, men, women and children have
been murdered, manned and i'm
prisoned by the scoundrelly rascals
who hold Hungary under their whip
lash, since the betrayal of the revo.
luton. For these punishments are
seldom melted out in formal legal
trials, are seldom conducted before
the public. Persons who are sus-
pected of Communistic leanings "dis.
appear" until their bodies are found
murdered or drowned by an unknown
hand. Horthy-Hungary is the land of
thousand-fold murders, of the most
horrible, most terrible White Terror
that the world has ever known.
