times, while Miss Sutherland va:nly
pulled on the reins.
Rescue Is Cheered
Seeing that the headstrong horse
might slip upon the muddy course,
Sergeant Gaffney mounted and
started in pursuit. In the meantime,
the programmed race was over.
The artilleryman sped down the
track for a full lap before selling
the bride Of the RUNAWAY. Miss
Sutherland and the trooper combined
their efforts, finally bringing the
horse to sliding stop, amid cheers
from the grandstand and the hun
dreds who lined the rail.
Miss Sutherland was cool and
unhurt, but muddy.
The last day Of the horse show
brought out the most sensational
riding Of the meet. The course
was almost impossible to pedes-

in from four to six inches Of mud

Good HoIBemanship.
Miss Alice Jones, riding for the
Benton Stables. Of Middleburg, Va,
and furnishing consistently good
performances, slid from the back of
Ponchette when the horse refused
the fourth barrier in the ladies'
hunter event. Miss Jones arose,
covered with mud from hat to
boots, and brought Ponchette over
the barrier successfully, winning
second place in the class. Ponchette

Debts and Danger

The parlous days when the horried hun was
driving toward Great Britain are over, the once
formidable foe is vanquished the loot is divided
and the need for aid has passed The enemy of
British Imperialism is not Germany but the United
States and the negotiations for the payment of the
British debt to wealthy America take on an ever
sharper tone.
The British inanciers insist that II payments
are made to America by France that similar
amounts be paid to Britain by this common debtor
of the two great powers. The British imperialist
press is frantic with the thought that the House
of Morgan, because of its ability to bring pressure
on France that Britain dare not use, may get pay
ments that should go into British pockets.
The Morning Post echoing the sentiment of the
other capitalist sheets, says:
II Is obvious that we cannot bear all the sacri-
fce despite the somewhat barren glory which we
reap for our generosity. At the time,
Mr.. Churchill asserted, this country does not wish
to pursue any niggardy policy toward France.
It seems then that the next step lies with the
IS United States
President Coolidge and congress are faced with
grave decision. They have to choose between
policy which from the party point Of view may be
easy and for the time being profitable and
which, tho causing temporary embarrassment will
In the end rebound to the credit Of the United
States and make for settlement and peace in the
world
It is primarily moral but It is also business
ISSUE For too rigid creditor suffers in the end
almost as much as his unfortunate debtor"
Discernible behind this smoothly worded threat
is the snarl of the British lion whose markets,
spheres of influence and world prestige are threat
ened by the growing financial power of the Amer
lean plunderbund.
Wars are made in counting houses and fought
by the working class doped with patriotic phrases
The scene shutters of Mars are arranging the stage
for another world struggle which honeyed phrases
concerning "Anglo-Saxon unity" do not avert but
which serve to lull the working class of the two
contending nations into fancied security.
The Communist International and its affiliated
parties alone point out the danger and the only
safeguard-working class solidarity and world
revolution.

Post Office Clerks
Get Less Pay Today
Than Ten Years Ago

WASHINGTON. Dec. 12.- Ninety
per cent of all postoflice employees re
ceive less than $4,000 a year, and the
real wage of the postofice clerk is
less today than 10 years ago, says
Thos. F. Flaherty, secretary Nationa'
Federation of Postoffice Clerks, in a
final appeal to congress to pass the
salary increase bill over the Coolidge
veto.
Flaherty thinks patience has ceased
to be the only virtue to which tho
100000 workers in the postal service
need aspire. The virtue of survival
in the race with poverty is one he
would match up with patience. Flah.
erty shows that in less than -four
years the over-worked employees in
the service have produced an increase
in revenues that has wiped out a de
felt of $50, 100000, and that the clerks
are giving more service at less real
wages than at any time since Ben
Franklin stated the postofIice system
He asks congress to pay living
wage.

The Capitalists Mourn Sam

That Gompers was key figure in the super
structure of American Imperialism is easily
cleaned from the manner in which the capitalist
press has handled the news of his illness and death.
He has occupied space and position in the metro
politan dailies given usually only to presidents
and plutocrats Seven column headlines have been
handed out freely to the man upon whom the Nor
ganRockefeller clique depended to play the same
role in Mexico that Dawes played in Germany
The comments of the capitalist press are invari-
ably friendly. He receives the title of the 'grand
old of labor" and eulogies of his sanity, con-
servatism and patriotism the order of the day.
In other Words the capitalist press of the United
States knows that its owners have lost valuable
ally. The workers who think know that the death
of Lenin brought forth no such unrestaned praise
for him and his career. On the contrary there was
a note of gladness and relief in the most dispas
death of Lenin while the most rabid sheets went
into ecstacies over the blow the worlds working
class had received.
Says the Chicago Daily News:
The Importance attached to the outcome
of Mr.. Gompers' illness is due to the fact that
his combination with Secretary Morones and
with other Mexican labor leaders was ex-
pected to greatly assist President Gales in
solving the governments labor problems
What the solution of the (Mexican) governments
labor problems has been told in the columns of
the DAILY WORKER by our special cores
pendent. That solution was the delivery of the
Mexican labor movement to the Wall Street bond
holders
A labor leader who can accomplish such be-
trayal in the name of labor solidarity is certainly
a loss to American capitalism and the capitalist
press shows that it realizes it.

AngLo-French Unity

More and more it is becoming clear that the i'm
perialist British Baldwin government and the So
called liberal French Herriot government have
come to complete understanding In this sense
it is interesting to note how little fundamental diff
ference there is between the foreign policies of the
Macdonald and Baldwin ministries.
Great Britain is prepared to blink the anti
German operations of France. The latter is to be
allowed more gun totng and bayonet brandishing.
Besides, Germany must be forced to keep in mind
continually that there was certain kind of peace
signed at Versailles
But the basic significance of the rapprochment
between the imperialst ciques of both countries
lies elsewhere just now. 1t is union of the hang
men OF the colonial and oppressed peoples to per-
petuate the imperialist edifce at the expense of
the lives and energy of hundreds of millions of
poor people,
France is to be permitted to step in and crush
the heroic Riffs who have made the Spanish mur-
derers bite the dust England is to be given a free
hand in butchering the defenseless Egyptians. An
entente cordiale is to be established of all the erst
while allied imperialist powers to fight Commun-
ism. A new offensive will be launched again what
the capitalist pogrom agents call Pan-Asatc move
ments. China must be strangled especially as a
move to stab Soviet Russia in the back and thus
save the greatest labor market in the world for the
exploiting class. 1t is particularly important to
notice that the imperiasts are planning to combat
'the black chauvinist propaganda by Negro organ
izations in the United States.Y
This is an unholy alliance of the imperialist
powers against every movement which struggles
for freedom of the oppressed from the oppressors
and for freedom of the exploited from the ex.
ploiters. Such Anglo-French unity is not only a
source OF friendship between the two countries but
is at once a source of new conflicts, new wars be.
tween France and England as well as in the world
at large.
The workers Of every country must smash this
union Of imperialist piracy.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-12-13

ships that carried food, clothing and
machinery which Russia had to have.
On top of this, Russia had famine,
terrible drouth when nothing would
grow out of the ground.
Now even where there is no drouth,
country can't live unless she trades
with other countries. That is, she
gives other countries things that those
people need, and she gets in return
other things that she needs.
The Russian workers government
said to the capitalists of other coun-
tries, 1--WE will pay you well for the
things we need. We will pay you in
gold or in goods"
But the capitalists said, I'VE will
not sell to workers government.
We will starve you out until you give
back the land and homes to the land
lords, and the factories to the CAPT
talists."
The world capitalists are fighting
Russia, because Russia is fighting to
free all the workers. But the workers
of all countries have made up their
minds to save Russia even tho they
are poor workers themselves because
they work for capitalists in rich capt.
talist countries, and get only small
part OF the wealth they produce.
The capitalists see that their guns
and blockades did no good so they
now pretend friendship for Russia.
No matter what the capitalists say or
do, the workers and the workers
children must support Russia to the
limit.

The first fruit of the Dawes plan is now being
given to the working masses of the United States
1t is in the shape Of a huge naval appropriation
totalling $l40,0O0,O0O
This is the first of series of naval appropria.
tons that will be voted by the Coolidge govern
ment which prates much about economy when
the question of raising the salaries of the postal
employees, helping the bankrupt farmers, or grant
ing even the most insufficient compensation to ex
soldiers is brought up. The Yankee imperialists
must bring their hell-belching armadas beyond the
prowess of the British fleet Their world interests
demand a world fleet.
With the United States becoming the official re
ceiver of Germany; with the insistence of large
and influential section of the American capitalist
class that some sort of Dawes plan be worked
out for the settlement of the French and other
debts; with the sharpening of the imperialist con
fct of interests in the Pacific; with a growing un
rest in the American colonial empire the imperial
list government is preparing to build battle feet
that will be able to terrorize and crush into sub

whether at home or abroad
