of sadness of farewell to the oc-

question, did not occur to Comrade
Boris. The wages of every section Of
the labor aristooracy conforms with
its more highly skilled labor power.
But why was just this labor more
higly skilled7 Why does this labor
power belong to the highly skilled
workers and not to the unskilled
worker? Practically the whole work
ing class Of the capitalist state is an
aristocracy as compared with the
pariahs of the working class. That is
the basic question This question is
answered by our doctrine, which vas
created by Marx and developed by
Engels and Lenin and which is clear
ly discussed even in the progras OF
the Russian Party. Comrade B0Ss
absolutely overlooks this quesHrS.
And that is return, a complete "a
turn to the Second International. For
If we do not have this premise, we
cannot fight against the labor aristo-
cracy, imperialist politics, and will
not be in condition theoretically to
explain all these fundamentally i'm
portant phenomena. Engels, as even
those who are not specially educated
in Marxism know, even speaks Of the
bourgeois proletariat in England. This
is also an absurdity from Comrade
Boris standpoint, because he is not
familiar with Marxist literature. We
must ask: How is it possible that the
oditor of fha 0Tia Tnfarn n fiooa1o, 49,,
not exercise a censorship? (Korsch:
1t was merely brought up for discus
sion!) Comrades, we cannot bring up
every bit Of piffle for discussion. That
is bit strong.

The venture is better known by the

cumulative dividend not to exceed 6
per cent. After this has been paid,
the directors must set aside 10 per
cent of the net profits as a reserve
until it equals the capital paid in.
Then per cent Of the profits shall be
used in teaching cooperation by edu-

FARRELL STEEL
WORKERS CASES
COME IN SEPT.
Defense Sends Plea for
More Funds
BY Wallace t. Metcalfe.

YOUNGSTOWN, o., Aug. 1.-THE
Labor Defense and Free Speech Coun'
Gil handling the now famous Farrell Sc
dition cases has just completed cir
cularizing the labor movement OF
Ohio. Thousands of letters have gone
forth to the organized labor move
ment in Ohio setting forth the out
standing injustice being inflicted upon
the six Farrell steel workers for dar.
ing to exercise their constitutional
rights of free speech and peaceful as
semblage in district owned body and
soul by the Steel Trust.
Two workers have been convicted
Of violating the infamous Sedition
Law of Pennsylvania. Two are con
fined in the Mercer County Jail be-
cause their bondsmen were compelled
to turn them over to the custody of
the sheriff. The defense is exerting
every effort to secure the early re-
lease Of these two workers and the
outside world is being appealed to for
assistance. A cash bail of $4,000 each
is required by the court.
Jobless-BIackIlsted
The two workers at liberty under
bail awaiting trial have been out of
employment since their arrest. Boy
cotted-blacklisted and COM
PEELED to fight against uneven odds,
the game fight being put up by these
workers is exemplary. The appeals
Of the two convicted steel workers
will be heard before the Mercer
County court sometime in September
while the four steel workers yet to be
tried will have their trials in October.
The defense committee is faced
with the gigantic task of financing the
appeals and the trials. 1t will re-
quire $4,000 at the least to carry on
the legal battle in defense Of these
steel workers.
The defense committee has APP
pealed to the labor movement in the
United States and Canada. Thru the
labor press the TRUTH about Far;
relI has been broadcasted to the out
side world and in response to these
appeals many organizations have con-
tributed.
Miners Sympathize.

United Mine Workers union in south
eastern Ohio displays the real spirit
OF the American working class. Here
it is and every member of the work
ing class should read it.

In back of the Farrell defendants
hundreds of thousands of workers and
sympathizers are being modified and
from obscure oppressed steel workers
they are now known the world over
for their loyalty to their ideals.
That non-partisan force for Free
Speech-Peaceful Assemblage and
Freedom Of the Press, the American
Civil Liberties Union, has exerted its
powerful influence in behalf Of the
constitutional rights of these steel
workers. Its Representatives were
first TO come to the rescue Of the de-
PENDANTS.
Workers Must Help.
Workmen's Circle branches from all
over the United States have contrib
uted. This splendid organization Of
Jewish workers and business people
maintains its tradition of defending
the rights of the oppressed.
Four of the defendants are members
of the Workers Party of America,
South Slav Federation, and the bulk
Of the financial support has been CIV
en- by them. On account of unem-
ployment the contributions have been
small. The defense committee ap-
peals to the membership Of the Work
ers Party---to all members Of the
working class ana to those who SYM
pathize with them in their struggles
70 heed this appeal for funds.
There must be no letup in the cam
paign for the defense of the Farrell
steel workers. Contributions regard
less how small should be mailed at
once to the defense committee, VIM.
