The Plot That Failed

The great "red plot" sprung by the British
foreign Office on the eve of the elections, has
turned out to be great big fzzle. Tho Ramsay
Macdonald was undoubtedly acquainted with the
to spring it on the public he is now
in very embarrassing position, as most Of the
prominent leaders of his party brand it as fake
Even Albert Thomas head Of the labor bureau
of the League of Nations, declares it is quite pos
sible that the Second International to which
Ramsay Macdonald belongs was the active agent
in the forgery. He repudiates the charge that the
Amsterdam International is guilty of the deed.
That the expose" will prove boomerang to
those that tried to profit politically by it. is indi
Gated by the fact that the British Trade Union
Congress has accepted an invitation from Greg
DRY Zinoviev, chairman of the Communist Inter
national, to visit Russia and investigate the au-
thenticity of the document The Communist In
ternational will accept the findings of the COM
mission as final
OF course the abundant proof that the Zinc
view letter was a forgery will not prevent the
American capitalist and socialist press from per-
sisting in villifying Soviet Russia and the Com
munst International. But these liars will be
eventually exposed as their prototypes in Eng
land have been.

Liberal Press Agents

One of the most nauseating features of the
present political campaign is the indecent willing
ness on the part of nearradcal journalists to en-
ter the lists on the side of prominent capitalist
politicians and their labor lieutenants. Many of
those journalists received their training In the labor
movement at the expense of the workers, but the
working class organizations with a revolutionary
objective and an uncompromising attitude towards
the capitalist class are not usually in position
to retain the services of those whose feet they
placed on the road to prominence.
While attending the Peoria convention of the Him
oils Miners Union a DAILY WORKER reporter
was informed by fOurishing capitalist journalist
once associated with the Federated Press, that he
was ready to sell himself-he did not use these
words exactly-to the labor press but the workers
were not willing to pay as much for his services
as the capitalist class His virtue was for sale
but the workers not ready to place as high
price on it as the capitalists, therefore he sold
himself to the latter
We are prompted to make these observa-
tions on reading Cleveland Federated Press dis
patch from Harvey O'Connor, formerly of the Seat
tie Union Record and now press agent for War
rem S. Stone, president of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers We learn from the O'Connor
dispatch. that John L. Lewis president of the
United Mine Workers, has two officials of the In.
ternational in Cleveland telling the story of
Stones refusal to recognize the miners union in
his Coal River Galleries company.
Stone does not deny the facts, and boastfully
says that he will run his own business as he sees
it-just as any coal operator would say. Stone is
lined up politically with LaFollette. Lewis is a
political labor agent of Coolidge. Both tarred
with the same brush. Both are traitors to the
working class. There is no choice between them.
But O'Connor, instead of telling the truth about
those two worthless enters the fray on the side of
his paymaster, Stone and quotes the latter's de-
fense which is not even that The locomotive chief
merely attributed Lewis interest in the case to
political exigencies
After giving Stones curt comment on his union
scabbery, O'ConnOr makes the following revealing
comment: Impartial labor are inclined to
stand on the side lines and watch the battle be-
tween these two dominating figures of the labor
movement"
Those who are more devoted to their pay checks
than to their principles will always stand on the
side lines while the crooks battle, but always
ready to be placed on either payroll Journalists
of this type are more dangerous to the working
class movement than the avowed defenders of the
capitalist system

A Complete Reputation

The recognition of the Soviet government by
France, once the most bitter foe of the Workers
Republic is not alone a recognition of the stabl-
ity of the soviet power, but it is also complete
Reputation of the antisoviet policy of the United
States.
Thru an agreement entered into between Poin-
care, Herriot's predecessor, and the Washington
state department. the latter was kept informed
of every move in the French policy toward Rus
STA. 1t is an open secret in Europe that Hughes
exerted considerable pressure on the present
French government in an effort to prevent de jure
recognition. 1t is reliably reported that this
pressure went far as to theaten France with
immediate request for the payment of the big
United States debt ii Paris resumed diplomatic
relations with Moscow.
But the "lone Baptist of Tepot Dome, failed

Navy Day in Gopher Prairie

It's hard job to get the Atlantic feet to
parade up and down Main street and make all the
patriotic hearts rejoice while awesome workers
have their hats knocked off by ebullient sons Of
proteers. However, the navy did the best it could
to raise the fervor of backcountry folk for more
and bigger battleships.
In the great cities, where the working class has
been well fed such bunk, the absence of armored
cruisers was particularly annoying. The best that
could be done was some papers on "port admins
tration" read before the absent minded members
of engineering societies who had been inyeigled
into coming to meeting in hope of wettng their
lips with liquids too costly to float battleship.

PUBLICAN RANKS ENDING
FIVE WEEKS DEADLOCK
SMITH BEATS CUMMINS
INSURGENTS HELP DEMOCRATS
CARRY SENATE, AND MINOR
lTY WINS VICTORY

| Washington.-A Democrat, Ellison
ID. Smith of South Carolina, was elect
ed by the Senate as chairman of its
Interstate Commerce Committee, one
of the ranking committees of the new
Republican Congress.
| -Four insurgent Republicans and the
two FarmerLabor senators threw their
support to Smith, thus not only break
Ing deadlock which has existed since
Dec TO- but also giving the country
convincing manifestation that their
control of the balance of power in the
Senate is as complete as is that of the
Republican insurgents in the House.
On the thirty-second and final bal
lot of the deadlock, Albert b Cum
minis of Iowa, who had the indorse-
| ment of the Republican organization
| for reelection, received only twenty
nine votes, as against thirty-nine for
Smith and six for Senator Couzens,
Republican, Michigan, who had been
the third choice of the insurgents.
Smith received only one vote more
than the necessary majority of the
seventy-four senators voting.
With the deadlock broken, organiza-
ton of the Sixty-eighth Congress is
complete except for an expected fight
over the office of senator president
pro TEN.
With the Iowa senator deposed from
the Craftsmanship of the committee
which handles railroad legislation, the
Insurgents have indicated they would
support him for reelection as presl-
dent pro TEN, but there have been
rumbrings of some opposition from the
Republican organization.
Whether Senator Cummins remains
as n member of the Interstate Com
merce Committee, which handles rail
road legislation, was questioned in the
Senate by some of the insurgents.
Republican organization leaders
hold, however, that he is a member
despite his defeat for the chairman
ship.
On the ballot which elected Senator
Smith, one Democrat, Bruce of Mary
land, voted for Senator Cunmins as
he had done since early in the dead
lock when the insurgents threw their
strength to the South Carolina SEN
ator.
Republicans voting for Smith were:
Brookhart Iowa; Frazier and Ladd,
North Dakota, and La Toilette, Wis
consin; Senator Norris, Nebraska, an
other of the insurgent bloc, continued
to vote for CouZens, as did Senator
Gooding, Idaho; Capper, Kansas;
Howell, Jones, Washington, and Nor
beck, South Dakota.
