Review Of orphans Of the Storm
BY A Junior AGE IS

by - Junlor Age 10
The capitalists cover up the naked
truth with wells of lies in which they
state they present her to the children
in school When the children grow
into manhood and womanhood the
capitalists fear the evils of lies will
not be sufficient so they reinforce
them in many ways. They tell you to
look at truth how beautiful she is
and when you want to remove the
wells to see her you are prohibited
thru different plots.
One of the new wells to cover up
truth is the motion picture orphans
of the Storm" written by that superb
liar D. w. Griffith. The whole story
is written to say "Bolshevism is ter
rible."
The program gives an introduction
to the play. Any person who thinks
for himself Immediately see the will
full misrepresentation of facts. For
instance, the inference is made that
Bolshevism and anarchism is one and
the same thing when everyone knows
they are entirely opposed to each
other.
In the play Griffith makes one char
acter interpret what he wants us to
believe is a noble capitalist soul. Van
drey, Il believe l got his name right
an aristocrat, after being served by
his servants and after eating his fill,
walks out of the house where he sees
some starved workers crying for a
crumb Of bread, which he gives them.
But we juniors ask Mr.. Griffith why
should workers who make everything
have to beg for bread? And we want
to tell him that we, the workers don't
want charity. We are the creators Of
all things and we want all in return.
Juniors, children of the working
class, we will not listen trustingly to
their lies. We will measure every.
thing with a class conscious point OF
view, use our common sense and sho,x
such liars as Griffith and the rest (of
them that their days for fooling THE
workers are over.

WHAT CAUSES our pooRNEssa

Part 8.
To get clearer understanding of
how the workers are being robbed in
capitalist government we will take
a look into the sums of money made
by the United States Steel corpora
ton of which Ebert H. Gary is the
owner. Capitalist Gary during the
months of July, August, and Septem-
Der of this year made $3O,71S,415. Do
you see how much this is?
Now find out how much Capitalist
Gary makes in one week, in one day
Ask your father how much he
makes in one day and send a letter
to the Children's Column so that we
can all learn by these examples.
And bear this ever in mind Capt.
talist Gary or any other capitalist does
not work as hard as our fathers do
He only looks on while his riches pile
up. The capitalists can pile up theii

This holds good whichever sex is dom

under helps them.
Those workers who do not under
stand the cause of this poorness and
do not see any way out of it want
to die. But those workers who under

Party to work to destroy this system
When this system will be destroyed
and Communism take its place, the
workers and not the capitalists will
rule. The workers will get the full
benefits of their labor. There will be
no rich living on the labor of the
poor. Gary will have to go to worl

ANOTHER LABOR
LEADER SELLS
OUT TO BOSSES
Labor" Senator Gets
on Bosses Payroll
tspeoIaI to rhe oaIIy WORKED

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Dec. IA
Another friend of labor" elected on
the democratic ticket to the Con-
necticut legislature by the aid of the
workers votes has at last succumbed
to the fleshpots of Egypt. He is Sen
ator Joseph Tone, former organizer
of the International Association Of
Machinists and prominent leader in
the shopmens strike against the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
road, from which he now accepts
lucrative position.
Senator Tone was elected senator
because of the popularity he enjoyed
among the workers thru his activity in
the strike that started in 1922. He
travelled all over the New Haven sys-
tenn exhorting the strikers to hold out
to the bitter end. He was one of the
most aggressive in attacking the New
Haven for its refusal to treat with
the men. The strikers who now look
upon him as traitor are not so GER
tain but he was then as now on the
railroad payroll.
Workers Nominate Tone.
The strike was four months old
when the workers of the tenth district
in New Haven decided to nominate
Tone for the senate. After his cleo
ton Tone displayed strange apathy
in carrying out his promises. The
New Haven lobbyists had several
bills saddling the cost of bridges on
cities and towns but instead of Tone
being on his uppers attacking the New
Haven bills he was off on junketing
trip over that company's lines on
business of state" as he explained.
Fought With His Mouth.
The workers, confiding and gullible,
accepted Tones excuses. At this time
he persisted in attacking the railroad
but the fighting was all done with his
mouth. He even put forward the de-
ception that he was boring from
within" the magnate's ranks and get
ting valuable information"
When the LaFollette movement
swept the farmer-labor party before
it and rallied millions of workers be-
hind the Wisconsin senator Tone, see
ing big thing as he thought, hoped
on the bandwagon. But when he
failed to secure the LaFollette en-
dorsement, his enthusiasm for that
gentleman's movement waned rapidly.
Strikers Were DeIuded.
In the last election Tone was the
only democrat elected from New
Haven, largely because of his popuIari-
ty during the strike. The deluded
strikers expected great. things from
him in the legislature, but this week
he was appointed freight agent of the
New York, Ontario and Western rail-
road which is one of the chief sub
salaries of the New Haven.
Hundreds of those who quit their
jobs on the New Haven in 1922 are
still on strike and facing bitter
winter. The Judas who drew his
salary from the Machinists' Union
during the strike is now in the open
employ of the enemy.

All of this wealth has been stolen from labor.
This surplus has been stolen from the workers to
be used against them. Yet this wellnigh i'm

William Randolph Hearst, in boosting for a
large navy declares that he is pacifst but thinks
that in order to have peace we must first have
several wars. When the United States capitalists
have the rest of the world under their heel, then
we may be able to enjoy peace. But long before
then the working class of the world will enforce
peace by eliminating the capitalist system. The
workers are not pacifsts either, Mr.. Hearst

To the DAILY WORKER: The
special correspondent Of the Duluth

Foreign Service, A. r. Decker, spills
alligator tears over the Bulgarian
farmers who, he claims, just cannot
help going over to Communism unless
the capitalists of the United States
hurry up and send them Dawes
plan.
That the bloody reign of the Bull
garian bourgeoisie is crumbling and
that the farmers are rapidly going
over to the Communist Party is true
but that Dawes plans or any capital
list schemes whereby it can save ma
tons from the rightful leadership of
workers will take with the Bulgarian
workers is false notion and the elo-
quent correspondent for the kept
press may just as well save his
breath.
Bulgaria Knows Better.
1t is too late. Tho the reactionaries
who killed Stamboulitsky and brot
on reign of terror against all Com
munists, killing and imprisoning
them, and starving their families, still
reign over Bulgaria splitting the blood

GOVERNOR DENIES
FINAL APPEAL OF
! z YOUNG SLAYERS

Refusing for the second time to
commute their death sentences to life
Imprisonment, Governor Clifford
Walker on Friday replied to the let
tors recently written to him by Will
lie Jones and Gervis Bloodworth,
Taylor county youths, who will die
on the gallows January, for the
murder Of Howard Underwood, a
travelling salesman, in December,
1928.
The condemned youths, whose APP.
peal for Clemency was disapproved a
few days ago by the state prison
commission, and the same day de-
MED by the governor, wrote letters
to the governor Immediately after
they had been notified Of the failure
of their plea.
In these communications, the
young men urged that they be per-
mitted to spend their lives in prison
rather than pay the extreme penalty
of the law, ascribing the crime to
bad associations and bad habits.
Mr.. Underwood was shot and kill
ed after he had picked up the two
youths in his automobile on a lonely
road in Taylor county. Robbery was
the motive for the crime.
The text of the governors letter,
a copy of each being sent to the two
defendants, follows:
Il have carefully considered your
favor of December 10, and deeply
regret that cannot meet your views
in the matter.
"There are two clements involved
in punishment under the law; first,
that the criminal, himself, may be
converted. | am certain from your
representation that you have repent
ed Of your wrongs, and are willing
to do right in the future. However,
the second element is, the element
of discouraging others from COM
hitting crime.
1.-The law does not seek to get
revenge on those who violate the
law, but it does seek to teach a
lesson to all others that the viola.
ton Of the law will be followed by
certain and proper punishment.
In this respect, then. it may be
that your suffering will result in
good to your felloWman.
= Il respect and admire you for
your desire to do good to others, and
again ! commend you to the mercy
of an all-wise and forGiving God who
will bring pardon to the repentant,
in my judgment.
VERY sincerely,
"CLIFFORD WALKER,
