RUSSIAN SHEET
in CHICAGO HAS
OWN lie FACTORY
Takes It's Dope Right
Out of the Sky
BY NJ. A. skRoMNY.

Not being satisfied with the reprint
ing manufactured news" about Soviet
Russia, which comes from Berlin,
Riga, and points west, the local Chicago
Russian counter revolutionary sheet,
Russky Vestnik, went into manufac-
turing business on its account.
A few days ago the readers Of this
yellow sheet were informed with
big four-pica headline about great
split taking place in the Workers
Party of America. The party is going
to pieces, the leaders are in panic,
and much more to the same effect,
cried the paper. Do they have any
facts? They don't bother about such
trifiing matters.
Facts Tell Different Story.
In vain did the readers look for
facts, figures, or any proofs about the
split" 1t was just trick borrowed
from the big yellow newspapers. I'm
der the headline about the split were
the usual attacks, insinuations and
lies.
Couldn't they get the facts? OF
course they couldl But the facts tell
just the opposite story. The facts
prove that the Workers Party is grow
ing stronger every day. Five thou
sand new members joined the party
within the last few months, and the
campaign has just been started. The
first time in the history of the United
States, the Communists participate in
the presidential elections. This alone
is sufficient proof of the growth Of the
) party, and those who care, can see it.
But the gang of the white-guard
sheet does not care about facts. What
they care about is to Islander Soviet
: Russia, to SANDER the Communists.
Weep For OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
In another article in the same sheet
they cry about the political prison
ers" in Soviet Russia Save the pol.
itical prisonersl" Do they give the
facts as to why they are in the pris-
: ons? Do they remind the readers
about the murders of Volodarsky, Urit-
sky, the attempt to murder Lenin, the
bombs thrown at the sessions of the
Executive Committee of the Commun.
list Party, the thousands of Commun-
lists and non-party workers executed
by the white-guards and anarcho-
Machno bandits? Oh, they don't
bother about such trifiing matters
Tries To Talk For Labor.
In still another article this sheet
attempts to talk in the name of labor.
There is Soviet School on Chicago.
During the hot summer months there
! wasn't much activity in the school.
: AS usual there were some deficits.
t At present the activities are again be-
!. ginning. as it was already reported in
the DAILY WORKER last week. But
s the local ounter-revolutionary sheet,
/ that knows everything that is going
d on in Soviet Russia, does not know it,
1 and therefore proposes conference
!. of ALL to talk over the matter of TAX
s ing over the building of the Soviet
: School, for the use "of everybody"
The czarist diplomats abroad took
o hold of the Russian government build
ings and refused to turn them over to
e the Soviet authorities. This sheet
i. proposes to do something like that
3 with the Soviet School. The building
q of the school is at present the head
y quarters of many labor organizations.
The doors of the school are wide open
for every labor organization, but not
for everybody" as this sheet wants
it. There is no room for the counter.

! czarist generals, for the white-guard
> emigrants.
!. Workers Reject Brass Buttons.
/ This is what bothers the local sheet.
d They are "everybody's" paper, they
}. are interested in everybody" But
' the Russian workers are not! They
t don't give snap for the brass buttons
/. and gold epaulets of the czarist colo.
!. nels and generals, and they are going
d to keep that gang out in the cold
Q The counter-revolutionary sheet may
S bark and cry, may fret and lie, it
won't help any!
