Answer this Call

Not only in New York City, where the Workers
Party campaign committee has put out a call for
7. U. E. L. and party members to volunteer for
poll service on election day, will such demand be
met with enthusiasm.
Workers everywhere who realize the danger Of
the LaFolette illusion have been fighting tooth
and nail with the Communists. Only the Com
munists have stood out for a real working class
program Of revolutionary action against capital
ism. In this fight the members of the Trade Union
Educational League have stood four-square against
the sweep of the LaFOllette illusion in the labor
unions as engineered by labor takers Of all kinds
and colors.
Together with members of the Workers Party,
these class conscious workers have taken the floor
of the unions from one end Of the country to an
other, have furnished much Of the agitating per-
sonnel and have made it possible for the Com
munist clarifcation to penetrate the masses in
the unions which the labor takers had guaranteed
to LaFollette, or Davis or Coolidge.
On election day the Workers Party members
will find beside them as election workers at the
polls, the revolutionary unionists who know that
Communist politics" is fight to overthrow cap
itahsm.

Welcoming Gales

General Plutarco Elias Gales has just landed in
New York The Reverend Norman Thomas and
the remaining few holy socialists along with
motley collection of liberals staged reception for
the president as a working class champion.
The Honorable Gales is reported to have told
his pseudo-socialist admirers that he was elected
by organized labor and that his rst interest is in
the labor movement" We know that it was the
organized labor movement and the working and
farming masses of Mexico in general that were re-
sponsible for the election of Gales This does not
blink the fact that Mr.. Gales has already shown
his teeth and clenched fists to the very working
masses that made possible his political ascendancy
More than that, it was these very workers who
crushed the attempts of the extreme reactionaries
to overthrow the Gales election.
Mr.. Gales has nothing to offer to the working
class of Mexico. He is in hearty accord with the
policies of the present Mexican administration
which has been perpetrating travesty after trav-
esty on the hard gains won by the workers In
the various revolutions Of Mexico. At the very
ment that Mr.. Gales was being greeted by his So
called socialist champions in New York. the Gen
eral Confederation of Labor of the southern repub
lie was threatening to call out its fifty thousand
members unless the scabs of the textile factories
was enjoying a sumptuous reception in the splen-
did chambers of the Waldorf Astoria the electric
ians were striking for the most elementary de-
mands in Vera Cruz.
While Mr.. Gales was boasting of the magnif-
cent social program Of the Mexican republic under
his joint regime with Obregon, the Mexican gov
ernment was landing its federal troops to protect
the scabs running the refneries of the Gulf Oil cor
poration. While Presidentelect Gales was prais-
ing his own interest In the labor movement, the
federal government was mobilizing all the troops
in the capital. At the same time the oil refneries
Of the Royal Dutch were being run by scabs pro-
tected by Obregon's soldiery.
We have no illusions about Senior Gales. Senor
Gales is of one stripe with the Reverend Thomases
the Morris Hillquits, and their European friends
in the German social democracy now attempting
to crush the Communist Party. We know that Mr..
Gales will make every effort to disarm the Mexi-
can workers and farmers and thus "stabalize"
Mexico for the capitalist interests.

governments in high esteem.
The Chicago Daily News had one of its usual
stupid editorials in this vein But when it became
convinced that the letter was a forgery it did not
turn around and apologize for its offense, but
simply said in substance ''Well, what if it is a
forgery? Perhaps some Communist to the left of
Zinoyiev forged the letter. Anyhow, read what
Zinoviey writes to the German workers on the an

The mining industry of America
offers wonderful opportunity for
the Young Workers League to accom-
plish good propaganda and organiza-
tional results. The thousands of
young workers employed in the min
ing industry by the coal companies,
regardless of state laws which are
never enforced, offers a fertile field
for the revolutionary propaganda of
the American Communist Youth
movement. Knowing this we enter
this campaign, the first real industrial
campaign conducted in a basic in
dustry, with a knowledge that the de-
mands and program of our movement
are Immediate and vital issues de-
manding the attention of every young
miner in the country.
This campaign must receive the un-
stinted support of every member of
the Young Workers League and Work
ers Party in every section Of the
country. Those units who are not
located directly in the mining ter
ritory must rally to the support of
the League in this campaign.
The Young Workers League of
America must become the expression
of the millions of young exploited
industrial workers In America.

This action makes very clear that

the convention. the surface condemna-
ton of them by the right wing dele
gates being mere stage play.
Foreseen by Communists.
This outcome was prophesied by
Harrison George of the Red Interter-
national of Labor Unions Tuesday, af-
ter being denied the floor. At that
time he said, "There is no halfway
ground for workers, who say they are
revolutionary, between the reaction
ary injunctionite elements and the
members of the l. w. w. who adhere
to the Red International because they
adhere to revolution. Refusal to list
en- to the message of the Red Interna-
tional shows that before the conven-
ton is over it will be captured by
the injunctionites."
Doyle Finishes His Defense.
Thomas Doyle, suspended secre-
tary-treasurer, finished his defense to
charges that he violated the l. w. w
constitution, yesterday. Doyle turned
his defense into an attack on the in
junctionites, and the champions of
Rowan, in the convention-Leonard
Swanson, Grad. Oates, and especially
Erwin, tried by. their questions to
tone down the offenses commit
ted by the Rowan-Bowerman faction
Doyle denied that he had forcibly
elected the trump" general executive
board of the Rowan-Bowerman fac
ton from the national headquarters
at 1901 West Madison street. When
asked by one of the Rowanites in the
convention what was his definition of

Rowan and his henchmen tied up the
bail fund of $4,000 by their injunc-

Accuse Bowerman Of Shielding Dicks.
Doyle repeated his charge that
Bowerman wanted the G.. E. B. to re-
scind its former action of expelling
two Burns stool pigeons from the or
ganization. Doyle read letter which
charged B. Paddock with being for
mer member Of the U. S. department
of intelligence in the U. S. army. The
letter declared that Paddock had
tried to go to Russia but the Russian

barred him from going because he

Every action of the Rowanites has

ing the l. w. W., and l have tried to

Welinder WIthhoids News.
P. J. Welinder. the 'press commit
tee" of the l. w. w. convention now
meeting here, seems to be making it
his principle duty to keep news OF
the convention from getting out to
the public. Welinder has refused to
give the DAILY WORKER reporter
the minutes Of the l. w. w. conven-
tion on the grounds that we 'have not
treated the chairman right" The
chairman is none other than Welinder.
Welinder's duties, as the press COM
mittee Of the convention, were stated
to be the preparing Of a daily press
dispatch which would be the official
press notice Of the convention, after
they had approved it. In spite of the
fact that by the time the press COM
mittee had laboriously written up his
reports of the convention and had
them approved by that body, the news
was four days old, the DAILY WORK
Err has patiently given many columns
of space to printing these minutes.
But after Welinder was elected to
replace Ed Delaney on the press COM
mittee, the DAILY WORKER found it
had no space for a particularly badly
written and verbose report of Welin-
der's. Welinder Immediately induced
the convention to pass a motion to
give the DAILY WORKER no more
press reports on the grounds that I'VE
were not printing them"
Reports Prepared, But Not Issued.
Welinder declined the nomination
for an important committee on the
grounds that 81 am already on the
press committee" Now Welinder is
seriously going about the farce of pre-
pairing lengthy press reports" every
day of the proceedings of the conven-
tion, and persistently refusing to give
them to the DAILY WORKER. We
linder's main job would appear to be
surpressing the news of the conven-
tion. His reports, of which he is so
proud, are not sought by the capital
ist papers, and Welinder refuses the
official news of the convention to 9TH
er working class newspapers.
Play News Suppression Game.

rampage of 100 per cent democracy,
