TECH GIVEN NEAT TRIM
BY BALTIMORE CITY

Fighting bravely to stave off the
furious rushes Of the Baltimore
City College backfield stars, Teen
High School managed to hold the
collegians to a 10 to 0 score, and
thereby save their faces from dis.
grace. The Techites were sadly
out of tune in the running of their
plays, though flashes Of brilliance
broke through their muddling
every once in q while.
City College had loaded for the
game, thinking that nothing would
be SO nice as q victory over Tech
in the first game. Judging from
the showing Of the Tech team
Coach Hardell will have q nicely
balanced aggregation once he getl
the rough spots ironed out.
City College scored in the first
second and last quarter, falling to
kick to goals.

The Mats have kept pace with
the Yankees while scoring 100 less

Yankees hits have gone for more
than 300 more bases than Washing
tons but the Mats had consistent
pitching and that has kept them in
the race. This same pitching plus

Babe Ruth is the major portion

failing Tamndny Hall

1t was not an accident that resulted in President
Norris Sigman, of the International Ladies' Gar
ment Workers Union, presenting Mayor James
Curley, of Boston, to the delegates of the unions
convention now in session in that city.
And it was not an accident that Mayor Curley
urged Governor AL Smith, of New York, upon the
delegates as available presidential timber.
Curley and Smith are two peas in the Tammany
Hall pod that dominates the democratic party
And the SigmanH ilquit- Forward Socialist admin
istration that rules by dictatorship in The Inter
national has always had longing eyes on Tam
many Hall, in New York, city and state.
1t was the Sigman- Hillquit- alliance
that tried to form coalition with the Tammany
Hallites in the labor movement, for the creation
of the New York American Labor Party, with its
boycott against all things Communist But it will
be remembered that in the affair at Albany the
Tammany Hall machine dumped the Socialists
Hillquit- Sigmanites and all-into the street
The expulsion of militants from ''The Interna-
tionap' is purely a Tammany Hall strong-arm
method in politics, introduced into the trade union
movement. When Sigman presented the Tammapy
Hallite, Curley, to the convention delegates at
Boston, it was inevitable that he should himself
attack the left wingers in his own opening re-
marks.
But the delegates will have something to say
later on. 1t is they who will have to decide
whether "The International" is to resume its lost
position as part of labor's vanguard, or whether
the union is to be made tail to the democratic
party Tammany Hall machine If the delegates
are given an opportunity to register their real
sentiments, we feel that Tammany Hail. with all
its corrupt and destructive methods, will be given
the boot by "The International"

The Argentine Strike

The labor movement in the Latin-American
countries is going thru very interesting and sig
nifcant Development Because of the character
OF the industrial development achieved by these
countries, their labor movement to date has been
largely colored by neutrality-suspicious. tendencies.
The great extent to which the industries of these
countries still in the smallscale in places even
in the handcraft stage, has proved fertile soil for
individual, instead of mass reaction to the rule
of the capitalist exploiters and landlord oppressors
in those countries.
But recent years. particularly since the war,
have seen an intensifcation of the tendency to-
ward the development of large scale production
and giant investments by foreign capitalists. Our
American inanciers have been especially active in
such enterprises. With this development of in
dustry there has come the natural rise Of more
highly centralized governments. Likewise the CON
ditions for highly political, working class
lutiOnary movement, are developing. This ten
dency has been evidenced in recent strike wave
that has hit practically every country of Latin
America. Of course the mass unrest is intensified
by the fact that the real power behind all the re-
dictionary governments set up in Central and South
America is the strong arm of foreign group of
capitalists washington Junld.
The present strike in the Argentine is only a
phase of the great general unrest and discomfort
that is now brewing in South America. The in
dustries of the country are paralyzed. The work
ers are bent upon preventing the government from
forcing upon them pension bill for which they
have to pay per cent of their wages thru check
off SYSTEM in which their bosses are the collectors
for the government.
The deadly effectiveness Of the general strike is
causing the government great concern. Already
there is talk of yielding to the workers For the
working class of the Argentine, and the other
Latin-American countries this strike will prove
of considerable help in lending new and firmer
tone Of classconsciousness to the labor movement.
The out-and-out open conflicts with the government
should serve to develop the political character of
the class conflicts in the country. And we, the
workers and poor farmers of the United States,
have the right to welcome the increase of class
power in the Latin-American countries as a most
effective step in the direction of building power
full revolutionary proletarian movement, a Com
munist movement, which alone end the rule
of the American imperiaists on the North and
South American continents.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-05-07

cut-throat competition amongst them
selves. One market completes with the
other. Competition is carried on in
the hope of getting the second batch
of orders produced at a lower labor
cost than the first. Gambling at the
expense Of working conditions knows
no bounds. This naturally leads to
what we stated above-one manu-
facturer makes enormous profits,
while another is driven to bankruptcy.
In such a manner a panic has heen
created. Some manufacturers may per-
haps lose in it, but the sufferings Of
the workers are limitless. The cancers
are far more terrible for them; and
the unions, according to their present
leadership, are entirely helpless to
protect the workers.
What causes this helplessness? We
shall deal with that in another ar
ticle.

Well, be it SO; no outward sign
We need to hold us true;
'Tis you must ever wave a flag
To keep your craven crew.
For always, when the spirit wanes
The symbol wakes great;
The soul that first inspired your flag
Has fed your traitor state.
"The flag" whose worship you compel.
Is now "a Haunting lies

When e'er it passes by.""*
Good sirs: Your fears have played you

And hate has made you blind.
Your greed has choked the joy that

And still without flag wen work
