 From Shanghai to Ranking, Tsina- fu. Picking. Mukder, Seoul, Fusar and Nagataki to Tokio. Paces at such of these points ss are not already pro- rided with them have been begun on the assumption that the Frenchmen will fly on. D'oisy in q statement to- day strongly recommended that air planes used for such flights ss his be fitted for either pontoons or land- ing cars. as are the machines Of the American round-the-world fliers.

The Discussion In the Russian Communist Party

also in regard to a real knitting
together of the State Industry with
the villages.
a. The resolution Of the Political
Bureau, in one of its points, lays
down totally jncorrec5 task, name
ly, to include in the calculation Of
the price of products merely "the
necessary minimum profit" Such a
task implies a revocation of the
resolution of the Twelfth Congress,
a transition to the position of a
common bourgeois Fiscal economy"
it excludes the possibility Of basing
the state budget on incomes deriv-
ing from industry. The correspond
ing task can only be formulated as
follows: OBTAINING the greatest
profit with a given average price
and with the obligation to strive to
reduce the price by means of en-
larging and perfecting the working
capacity"
Help Co-operatives.
5. The resolution of the Political
Bureau does not give a correct esti-
nation of the successes of private
capital in general aad, III particular,
of private commercial capital which
has already come into possession of
IA per cent of the wholesale trade,
Is per cent of the wholesale-retail
and 80 per cent of the small trade,
and has also accumulated large
sums in goods and stable values. It
is necessary to dedicate far greater
attention than hitherto to the work
in the sphere of commerce. In con-
nection with this it Is necessary (see
Comrade Lenin's article on CO.
operation), in the fight against pri-
vate commercial capital, to bring to
the forefront the cooperative or
CARNATIONS, celebrating a plan of
increased credits to them, both by
supplying them with goods from the
state industry and also with finan-
cial means.
6. The demand for an active trade
balance put forward in the resolu-
ton occupies a very extended, but
completely unjustified position. This
demand, in its essense, means: To
export as much as possible, to i'm
port as little as possible and fur
thermore only 20 import means Of
production. To accumulate the diff
ference in the form Of a gold fund.
Regard, however, must be had to
the following:
(a) Soviet Russia cannot allow
herself the luxury of spending
means for the transition from bank
notes to metal currency, but must
spend these means for productive
purposes.
(b) The import of the necessary
industrial raw materials (cotton)
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-04-07

is to be developed as much as
possible.
(c) The private, importation of
articles for mass consumption in
which we are lacking could be the
principal and most profitable
weapon for the state in its fight
against speculation in goods.
(d) The importation Of articles
for peasants consumption is a very
important means for developing our
export. From this point of view it
is necessary not 60 strive at the
greatest preponderance of exports
over imports, but at maintaining a
solid equilibrium between the first
and second.
Foreign Credit Necessary.
On the other hand, to the extent
to which Soviet Russia obtains for
eign loans and will be able to COM
mence a large scale importation Of
means of production, and partially
also of articles of consumption in
which she is lacking, her commercial
balance can become a negative one
without any detriment to the devel-
opment of the productive forces, be-
cause her financial balance will be
positive one.
1t is necessary, not to proclaim
the abstract slogan of an active
trade balance, but to proceed TO-
wards celebrating a rational plan
and to make large use of goods
intervention Il. e., partial impor-
tation from abroad of goods which
we lack and of those which the price
has particularly increased).
z. The lack of well thought out
credit policy, the practical autonomy
of the state bank (for instance, the
abolition of credits to industry
which took place in autumn. without
the consent of the State Planning
Commission and the Supreme Ma
tional Economic Council), the at
tempt, instead Of aiming at a gen.
eral economic plan, to regulate
economy from the financial centre,
the failure of these methods of a
unique planning" all this demands
decisive steps towards including the
plan of the distribution of credits
into the general economic plan, and
also a corresponding modification of
the mutual relations between the
State Bank and the State Planning
Commission.
8. The central question Of the
proletarian economic policy in the
sphere of industry is the work for
systematically improving the posi-
ton of the working class. Successes
in this direction are the most i'm
portant guarantee for industrial
successes. Measures for raising the
standard of living of the workers and
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-04-07

also for strengthening, reviving and
freeing our trade unions from the
stultifying influence of the "Party
absolute tranquility" must be elab-
GRATED on a large scale and more
carefully.
Raise Standard of Living.
1t is necessary also to bring for
ward and to elaborate the question
of measures for the fight against
unemployment, question which has
been totally omitted from the reso-
luton of the Political Bureau. 1t is
also necessary to remarK that the
establishment of plannedness in our
economic construction, introducing it
into the system of our State Indus
try, will, by facilitating che acumu-
lation Of productive resources on the
part Of the state, become a power
full factor, reducing unemployment
and raising the standard of life of
the proletariat.
8. The fact that the resolution of
the Political Bureau recognizes the
necessity practically to carry out
the resolutions of the Twelfth Con-
gress regarding the State Planning
Commission, and In general regard
ing the establishment of a planned
administration of economy, can only
be welcomed. But to the natural
question, why was this not done
after the Twelfth Congress, the
resolution gives an evasive answer
which is not to the point, and which
provokes grave reflections regard
ing the future. This resolution con-
meets the possibility of a planned
administration with the introduction
of stable valuta. and thereby
seeks to explain the dilatoriness in
executing the resolutions of the
Twelfth Congress, by the necessity
of first of all carrying out the cur
rency reform. Such a presentation
of the question is incorrect ard dan
gerous because, without the general
and uninterrupted equiliDrating of
the finances with the other elements
of the state and national economy,
there can be no talk Of securing
real stable currency. 1t is incorrect
to assume that the prerequisites for
the planned administration of econ
omy can be prepared piecemeal. 1t
Is precisely this way of handling the
matter which, from time to time,
causes a sharp disparity in the fun
damental factors of economy and
which appears to be one of the main
causes of the present crisis, which,
to a considerable extent, seems to
be a crisis of disparity and of lack
Of provision.
Necessity of Public Reports.
10. The tremendous Importance
and the complicated nature of the
questions which the resolution of the
Political Bureau places before the
Party for discussion, necessitate a
detailed handling Of all their points
in the press, the publishing of the
most important figures and material
regarding all the most important
questions of economy, the edition Of
special manuals and the like-all of
which has not been done up to the
preselS. The discussion OH the eco
nomic construction was introduced in
such a way, that it cannot be cor
rectly developed and utilized bv the
outlying sections of the Party, and
by the mass of the rank and file
nuclei. If we wish 90 have a really
general Party discussion, these
foults and omissions must be imme.
diately remedied.

EpARTMENT OF
JUSTICE CROOKED
SAYS NEARING
Furnishes Reds; Rich
Crooks Go Free
BY SCOTT NEARING.
(Federated Press Staff Writer)

The department of justice is that
part OF the state which spies on citi-
Eens and prosecutes those who are
caught breaking the law.
1t necessarily follows that the en-
emies of the modern state are the
enemies of the department of JUS
tice, and are to be hunted down and
punished accordingly.
This is the explanation of the
treatment meted out to Debs and to
Morse by Attorney General Daugh-
erty, who did his best Ito all ap-
pearances) to keep Debs in prison
and to get Morse out of prison.
Debs was a humanitarian, a pro-
tester against war, and advocate of
new and kindlier social order. He
committed no act. He was merely
agitating against that form of So
ciety which made possible the war
and the department of justice.
Morse, to put the matter mildly,
was a profiteer, who had resorted to
methods that gave him illegal access
to the funds of the United States
government. Apparently Morse had
not only Instructed the government,
but he had robbed it.
The Red Raids.
The same contrast exists between
the ferocious red raids, initiated by
the department of justice against
people who were, for the most part,
foreigners, and unable to defend
themselves with the same facility as
Americans, and the failure to prose-
cute the war protiteers and grafters,
the violators of the antitrust laws,
and the other measures intended to
curb the rapacity of big business.
The department of justice has no
necessary connection with 'moral
right" or "just conduct" It is an
agency for administering the law.
In League With Crooks.
But that is not all.
The department of justice is an
agency for administering some of
the law, some of the time. The
laws against the opponents of the
established order are enforced with
savage barbarity. The laws against
those who plumber the people and
the government may be enforced, OF
they may not.
There are cases in which the de-
partment of justice goes even fur
ther, and thru its highest officials
suggests ways in which the laws may
be broken, and then protects the law
breakers.
If the testimony given before the
senate committee means anything, it
is that the department of justice is a
jobbing house, distributing favors
immunities, privileges and occasion
ally serving as the bulwark behind
which powerful men hide when they
commit crime.
The department, like any agency
of the vested interests, must be seen
realistically, as part Of the machin-
cry Of the established order. A bank
er collects interest as a matter of
course. A landlord racks rent from
even the most poverty stricken. The
department of justice, without any
reference to morality, equity or recti-
tude, projects and serves the exist
ing order with Jealous solicitude.
