That Special Campaign Issue

Comrades from all over the country are writing
in to the DAILY WORKER, complaining that we
did not tell them what crackerjack of a special
edition we were going to get out last Saturday
when the 1S-page Campaign Special was issued
They say that if they had only known, they would
have increased their orders many fold. Others got
their orders in later than O'Clock Friday night
and therefore did not get their papers at ALL be-
cause the flood of orders coming at the last moment
wiped out the whole edition as soon as it was off
the press.
Our answer to the disappointed boosters of the
DAILY WORKER is this This Campaign Special
was only the first one of several that will appear
in the course of the presidential campaign. Now
you know what we mean when we say that
Special is coming a certain date And after this
there will be no excuse and no placing of the blame
on the DAILY WORKER, if every city, town, fac
tory, mine and shop does not receive plentiful
supply. They can be gotten simply by placing your
order by o'clock the night previous to date of
issue
And while the DAILY WORKER staff realizes
that the standard set by this first Campaign Special
is high one, and will require lot of hard work
to repeat time and again still higher level vet
ii assures all the boosters and circulators of the
paper that in this Office everything possible will be
done to make every Campaign Special a regular
political machine gun that will NOV down our
enemies in wholesale fashion But the effectiveness
of the Specials depend upon our readers and pro
moters, the members Of the Workers Party and its
sympathzers upon whose effective work in giving
us big circulation depends not only the cam.
paign we now in, but also the very life of the
movement.

More Confusion of Issues

Political speeches on Labor Day are in the ma
ture of bait the hooks of those fishing for work
ing class votes. AS such they might be expected
to clarity some issues vital to labor. But such an
expectation this year must have received a sad
jolt. One and all, the speeches of all three CAPT
talist camps were mere maEeuvers on the political
chess board.
The death-bed repentance of the democrats, re-
nouncing the New York conventions refusal to
consider the pitiful demands of Gompers can hard
ly raise more than smile The democratic devil
is very SICK it is true, but its ludicrous efforts to
appear saint are not only late, but devilish
awkward Davis, champion of the workers,
requires more than eleventh-hour conversion to be
taken seriously even by the bureaucrats. As for
the republican department of Wall Street. it stands
pat, handing out the same old ''full dinner pail'
that has seen service for generations
But how about those champions of democracy,
freedom, and the rights of labor-LaFollette and
Wheeler? The senator from Montana, in his Boston
speech, made out good case against the Gold Dust
Twins of repubicanism and democracy but failed
completely to make out case for his own bi-par-
tisan substitute. His statement that he is sstill
member of the democratic party remains on the
record; and mere ranting against capitalist parties
while proposing nothing but another is nothing but
demagogy. Wheeler is still democrat" and when
the democratic party is ready to restore Gompers
to its inner councils will become regular again.
.LaFollette added point to his election issues,
when he denounced the Dawes plan as the plan of
J. P. Morgan. That is true, indeed, and that La
Toilette has finally spoken may indicate that he
reads the DAILY WORKER. But what LaFollette
will do on the burning issue of international rela-
tons and the enslavement of the German workers
still remains mystery. And that LaFollette will
really fight against the Dawes plan is an illusion,
proven by the fact that he proposes ALTERNATIVES
further, many of his chief supporters ardent
supporters of the Dawes plan, such as Willard of
the Nation and Samuel Gompers. This should pro-
vide material for many scrap in the already
chaotic camp of the 'progressives" who stand on
every side of every question.
The confusion in the camp of capitalism grows
more intense with every passing day. This is but
an added sign of the disintegration that proceeds
apace within the capitalist system. They do not
know where they are going these large and pretty
bourgeois statesmen" but they surely on their
way-to thebreakdown of their senseless, anarchic,
greedy system. And in the confusion the only
clear note is being sounded by the Communist can
didate-William q. Foster, who calls upon the
working class to establish it's own class rule upon
the ruins of the decaying capitalist system.

Recognize Soviet Russia

The fake progressves have dropped the issue of
recognition Of Soviet Russia. They have tacitly
agreed to the program of Gompers, which is ''no
recognition until Russia has completely restored
capitalism to power" Such contemplate cowardice
in dealing with one of the issues most vital to the
workers must arouse the deepest disgust.
Even for those who do not yet understand that
the Workers Republic is the only bulwark against
the most terrible reaction it should still be clear
that recognition of Russia is an absolute pre-
requisite to the solution of unemployment and that
Gompers' policy leads directly to another world
slaughter. That the "progressives" who pretended
in the past to be, at least, as advanced as the
British Labor Party this issue, should surrender
without pretense of fight, stigmatizes them as
takers, pure and simple.
The very minimum program that could call for
support from the working class on the issue of
Russia would be complete recognition and resump-
ton of full trade relations; reputation of all
Allied projects of parttioning of Russia both those
accomplished and those planned the summoning
of a world conference for disarmament, as called
for by the Soviet government; largescale credit
to the Soviet government to assist the workers gov
.s-nment and to reopen the factories of the world
reputation Of all demands for compensation to the
former property holders and other claims against
the Russian workers on account of their success
full revolution.
There is but one way in which the workers of
America can vote for this common-sense program.
That is to vote for the candidates Of the Workers
Party, for President, William u. Foster and for
vcepresident, Benjamin Gitlow.

British Labor Congress

The Trades Union Congress, now meeting in Eng
land will disclose how far the leftwing of the Brit
ish labor movement has developed during the first
six months Of Labor" government. The appear
ance of this leftwing section is matter of historic
Importance, but to expect much from its official
leaders in this Congress would be mistake. 1t is
probable that upon most issues before the Con
gress they will be ndistinguishable from the right
wing
Only the Communists will really fight for the
leftwing issues in the Congress now going on. The
so-caed left leaders are actually conservatives in
the main, and they take left position only under
the pressure of the rank and file They have been
forced, in order to head off the growing radical
ization of their MEMBERS to put up battle against
the government leaders, especially the question
of Russian recognition; they realized that if the
Labor Party should allow the negotiations with
Russia to break up, the result would be an enorm-
Gus increase in the strength of the British Com
munist Party They took cleft" position in order
to keep the masses from going farther left
But now they are able thanks to their forcing
of Macdonald to sign the preliminary treaty with
Russia, to keep the mask of 'Labor" on the face
of the fake Labor government. Even tho the treaty
which was signed contains very little indeed of a
practical nature, being significant as a gesture
rather than concrete step forward, still it is
enough for them to feel that they have brought
their rank and file into line again, for the time at
least And so it is to be expected that they will be
very revolutionary at this Congress.
The one issue that there is much possibility of a
large division ON in the Congress is the Dawes
PLAN On this issue it is possible that fight of some
proportions may be staged, with the left wing in
creased from its Communist nucleus to a consider
able body. Certainly if their words at the Trans
port Workers Federation International Congress,
held recently in Hamburg, to be taken serious
ly, the British transport union delegates should
put up real battle against the approval of the
Labor" governments role as the executor of the
plans of j. P. Morgan.

Another development in the war of the Illinois
Chamber of Commerce upon the organized workers
is witnessed in the latest battle at Herrn in which
seven deaths occurred Saturday When the Cham
Der of Commerce began to raise its war chest, two
years ago. to wipe out the stain" of the first Will
Hanson County battle in which imported gunner,
brought in to break the strike, were driven from
the region, few people realized what long and
terrible war was being launched. Today it is be-
coming apparent that these champions of Gamer
lean institutions" will stop at nothing
Under the flood of cash poured into Williamson
County by the "open shop" forces murder has be-
come commodity, purchased in the streets. Cor
ruption has eaten into every institution from city
halls and churches to labor unions, until every
person guards his slightest word for fear of spying
agents, and officials financed and receive their
orders direct from the agents of the Chamber of
Commerce
Under all the confusion of feuds, inevitably en-
tangling such murderous warfare against the labor
movement, this sinister "open shop" campaign is
the one silent but effectively directing force that
knows what it wants and is driving to get it. 1t
is not a mere coincidence that it was in Herrin
where the coal operators called conference to
slider slashing the wages of the miners, only few
short days past.

have done, but never in all my ex-
perience have listened to such a tale
of little tricks and picsyune politics
displayed by a man as was set forth
in the story of that occurrence as told
by Sweeney himself in 1917. The
worst part of it is that Sweeney tells
1t with gusto and seems incapable OF
understanding how small it makes
him look

J. T. U. Of A. has played sorry role
in the labor movement. 1t is neither
fish nor fowl, and 1t must be that
way because of the leadership it has
had. Why should not other national
and international organizations laugh
at It? We have a joke for a leader.
