McAdoo Promoters
Promising Plurns to
Ohio Democrats

NEW YORK, June 5.-Promises of
patronage to supporters of McAdoo
are weapons being used against his
opponents for the Democratic nomina-
ton and against a possible third par
ty candidate, as revealed in a cam
paign letter signed by Hamilton G.
De Weese, Ohio state manager for Nc
Adoo. A photograph of the letter is
published in the New York World. 1t
follows in part:
''Mr. McAdoo's nomination can and
will be secured in much the same
manner in New York Gas Wilson's
nomination in 1922 and will leave no
excuse for any Democrat to join the
third party movement. Will you
help bring this about?'
'In making this request of you per-
NIT me to say that all Democrats con-
tributing time, influence or money to
the McAdoo cause prior to April 20,
primary day, will be made matter
of record. / mention this because we
are confident that his nomination is
equivalent to his election, and those
for his nomination will be
in great favor with the McAdoo-for-
President Organization in Ohio"
DeWesse says he sent out the let
ter on his own responsibility, but after
discussing the matter with Judge
Rockwell, McAdoo's national cam
paign manager.

secretary Federated Farmer-labor
Party.
Mr.. ]. A. H. Hopkins, chairman
Of the Committee Of As ("Count
Them-4S!''), never was-and, Of
course, is not now-either a farmer
or an industrial worker And his
greatest claim to fame was his
Bull Moose" activity in 1912.
Since that date-with the help of
those modern aids to publicity, the
typewriter and mimeograph-and
an unlimited amount of gall, Chair
man Hopkins has been heroically
endeavoring to organize Progressive
parties Of the type that recently met
in the Ohio State convention, at
Columbus, with seven delegates
present.
Hopkins first horned in" on the
real Farmer-Labor movement last
winter, at the first conference
called in St. Paul. There he insisted
upon reading voluminous documents
and making frequent interminable
speeches; and he demanded" that
the st. Paul conference become a
part of the national conference"
called by the mythical Committee
of As, to meet in Chicago a few days
later-with Chairman Hopkins and
half dozen delegates present.
In the st. Paul conference, Hop
kins eventually agreed-after con-
siderable "gandy-dancing ev-
erything there decided upon And
he accepted the proposition that
the Farmer-Labor convention which
was then called for May 30th,
should include all farmer and labor
elements.
Hopkins did not attend the second
st. Paul conference, which changed
the date of the proposed convention
from May Both to June 18th. And

Farmer-Labor party, whose cooper
alton in calling the convention we
took in good faith is being used by
the Communists as means
Of entrance to the convention.
The Communist movement in this
country is admittedly controlled BY
the Moscow International. Thus
the whole situation in regard to
the st. Paul convention has
changed"
Having participated in the first
conference held at st. Paul, Hop
kins had then a full knowledge OF
the Federated Farmer-Labor party
and it's affiliations. He knew per-
fectly we'll that our insistence on
the point that the proposed conven-
ton should include all working
class elements, meant to include
also the Workers Party And not
only was he quite conscious Of that,
but he rather seemed to welcome
the fact-because he had evidently
become impressed with the strength
Of the sympathetic support which
the st. Paul conference gave to the
question of admitting all such eIe-
ments.
This very lame excuse now COM
ing from Hopkins may satisfy his
following Of disappointed capital
lists, in the shape Of struggling
lawyers, doctors, dentists, etc. But
it will not sound convincing to any
one else.
Hopkins and his little handful are
not Of enough Importance to waste
all this good newspaper space upon,
but for the fact that the capitalist
pressure to the interests Of its
owners-is now using this other
wise unimportant individual and his
busy mimeograph, to SANDER the
cause Of the exploited farmers and
industrial workers.
Hopkins is just another Of the
long line of little tools whom capt.
talism uses in its ruthless fight
against those it Expresses. Rumor
has it that he served a long ap-
premiership in Wall Street. He
was entirely out of place in the
brief period that he associated with
calloused handed workers and farm
ers. He is back now where he be-
longs-in company with Robert NJ.
LaFoIlette and Warren S. Stone
the left wing Of Wall Street.

YOUNG PIONEERS
CARVE LIFE OUT
OF VOLGA BANKS
John Reed Colony is
Big Success
BY ANIsE.

~ FNi0Eg
Federated Press STAFF Correspondent.
KVALINSK, Russia.-Fifty children
with their teachers have dug them
selves into the prairie along the River
Volga, and are creating living and
an education. There have been men
and women pioneers. These are chill
dren pioneers Ia years old. They
have named themselves the John
Reed colony, after John Reed, Who
was also pioneer, first in America
and then in Russia.
One Years Work.
1t is wonderful story Of achieve
ment-what they have done in the
single year since the government
gave them the land Of an old monas-
terry near Kvalinsk. Here was beau
tifuI location in the hills, with dozens
of old wooden houses falling to ruin
The orchard was old and in need Of
care. The arabic land-was at least
five miles away and in many different
pieces. How Russian-I thought-to
start model children's colony in a
place like this.
Yet they started. They had to.
They were IA years old and the gov
eminent in Moscow, pressed by young
er children's needs, could no longer
afford to keep them. 1t gave them the
land and little food Ten instruc-
tors Joined the group. They were not
teachers as we know them in America.
They were a blacksmith and a shoe
maker and carpenter-for these
children needed first of all to make
their own beds and shoes and tools.
Learned Trades.
Fifty little wooden beds with sack
mattresses Of straw were put up by
the children, and larger beds for
adults, and two visitors rooms looking
over the river They learned leather
working and made shoes. They made
garden tools, crude things Out Of
some lining given by the Quakers, the
girls made skirts and blouses. But
the boys are still dressed in ragged
American street costumes, from an
old clothes donation. They were he
roic scarecrows.
Keen Bargainers.
The largest single gift of money
this school has had (aside from the
government supplies and teachers
wages) was 500, which l sent them
last Christmas for celebration. But
how did they celebrate? The school
council sent the manager to Siberia
to buy horses. He brought back five
horses, which cost $40 each in ST..
IBERIA, but $50 in the famine-devastat-
ed province of Kvalinsk. Two they
kept; the rest they traded to peasants
for cows, chickens, pigs and food thru
the winter They got $500 worth of
stuff for that hundred dollars.

WORKERS OF ALL THE
NATIONS! TO THE AID
OF The GERMAN MINERS
TO THE WORKERS OF ALL
COUNTRIES.


The German miners have entered
the struggle in order to check the
capitalist pressure upon their wages,
hours and conditions of labor. Four
hundred thousand workers quit the
mines, subjecting themselves and
their families to great hardships.
Should united German capital de-
feat the striking miners, the miners
Of England, Belgium, France, Czecho-
Slovakia, Poland, etc, will come in
next for the blow Of capitalism; and
not only the miners, but the work
ers Of all Industries. "The struggle
Of the German miners is the cause
of the international proIetariat."
Only by the united front Of the
workers of all tendencies will It be
possible to check the offensive of
the brazen maanates Of the German
heavy Industries.
The alI-Russian central council
and the central committee Of the
Russian trade unions appealed to
the workers of all countries to come
to the aid of the striking miners of
Germany. Assistance must be rem
dered without delay. Especially
great Is the responsibility of the
miners, transport workers and
metal workers of England, France,
Belgium, czecho-slovakia and Po-
land. To the workers Of these coun-
tries In general, and to the miners,
metal workers and transport work
ers in particular, the entire Russian
trade union movement sends the
call:
TO THE AID OF THE GERMAN
MINERS!
Anyone who stands aside in this
struggle, who remains a neutral OBJ
server Of the gigantic battle Of our
German brethren, is traitor to the
working class, unworthy of being a
member of the proIetarian family.

of Germany
Long live the united front Of the
international proIetariat against the
capitalist offensiveI

Vauclain Says Increase of Ma
chinery in q. S. Is Reason.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., September
25.-Restricton of immigration is
justified by the increasing use of ma
chinery in the United States. Samuel
NJ. Eauclain, president of the Baldwin
Locomotive Works. said in an ad-
dress before the convention of the
American Bakers Association here.
In no other country that 1 have
visited-and l have visited most of
them in the past ten years-do the
mass of the people live as they live
here in the United States" said Mr..
Vauclain. You cannot find the COM
mon people with whom I have lived
consuming the quality of bread our
people here secure.
e"England today is losing its trade.
1t has hundreds of thousands of un-
employed mechanics with no hope of
ever employing them again, and they
cannot send them here because of
the immigration laws. The immigra-
ton restrictions offer relief to this
country which is more lasting"
