WORKERS CLASH
WITHFASCISTI
ON MATTEOTTI
Thousands Rallying to
Attend Funeral
Especial 10 The Daily wOrker)


ROME, Aug. 21.-The pour
ing of workers and peasants in
to the city continues.
Spectators here recall the
Fascist march on Rome of al
most two years ago, which
thrust Mussolini into the die
tatorship after he had been OUT
lawed by decree of the liberal
government.
Workers Rally.
Between that demonstration and
the uprising of today there is this
difference-that the men and women
now storming Rome to take part in
the public burial of Giacomo Matte
otti in defiance of the government
decree are not petty army officers,
but delegates of labor unions, repres-
entatives Of student bodies, Commun-
list leaders, boys and girls carrying the
emblem of the Third International.
Mussolini has called to the city
40, 900 Of the national militia--the
blackshirts. The Fascist of Lazio, a
government stronghold, are mobilizing
to come to Rome for counter-demon-
stration. The force of armed guards
stationed about the Jail in which are
imprisoned the Fascist convicted of
implicitly in the murder has been
doubled.
Denounce Fascist Rule.
The right hand of the body Of Mat
teotti was missing when the corpse
was discovered. Government officials
answer that worms ate it away. The
workers know that worms do not eat
bones.
Hatred of the blackshirt regime has
reached fever heat. Demonstrations
against the dictatorship flare up all
over Italy. In Milan, fifteen Fascist
were wounded when they attempted to
intimidate soldiers Of the regular ar
my who had hung the picture of Mat
teotti in the city armory. Naples,
where two years ago the Fascist
HdICl Ou hOme Was OTBdulleu, Is
witnessing parades of the workers,
who shout denunciation of Fascist
rule. At Salerno Mussolini was burn
ed in effigy.
The government made a gesture of
impartiality by the Imprisonment of
fifty of the national militia for dis
turbing protest meeting. All of the
fifty were released next. day.
Strike For a Day.
Work will be abandoned for the
day in every town thru which the body
of Matteotti passes when, after the
funeral at Rome on Sunday, it is car
ried to Badia Polesine, the birth place
Of the murdered deputy. Workers will
gather at the railway stations to pay
tribute of praise to the dead, and
tribute of hatred to the living Grim
inals intrenched in the seats of the
government.

Act to Boycott Italy.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 21.-The red
transport workers of Vera Cruz and
Tampico will boycott the Italian exhi-
bition vessel, Italia, which is expected
soon. They are doing this because of
the fact that Mussolini's government
is universally considered by the
workers as an enemy of the working
class.

operators. If the o. B. U. succeeds in
splitting the ranks of the miners it
will accomplish just what Lewis and
his gang want: the destruction of the
solidarity OF the miners. The condi-
lions prevailing in the district at the
present time threaten the crushing OF
the miners If they attempt to split
The vast majority Of the miners are
working only half time, and many of
them get only ten days work a month.
In this situation it is quite easy for
Lewis to arrange for the operators to
shut the mines for a while and then
open them to only those miners who
are willing to abide with the decisions
of Lewis. The check-off collection of
union dues will be useG as weapon
by Lewis in this method of wedding
out the militants of the rank and
file.
Lewis Anxious for Split.
The history Of the miners of Dis.
trict Is should be sufficient to pre-
vent the miners of Nova Scotia en-
barking on an o. B. U. adventure. In
spite of the fact that the overwhelm-
ing majority OF the miners Of District
1S went with the o. B. U. in 1919, the
u NJ w. ofhcialdom was able to
crush them in cooperation with the
operators and the Canadian govern
ment. The net result Of the split in
District IS was the blacklisting of the
militant leaders, and weakening of
the solidarity Of the miners After
three years the miners found that they
had to again take up the fight inside
the U. M. w.
1t would be much easier for Lewis
to crush the miners of Nova Scotia
in the event of split. They have
gone thru a series of struggles, and
periods of unemployment, since 1922
that have robbed them of any funds
to conduct struggle against black
list. The British Empire Steel Cor
poration owns 80 per cent of the mines
in the district and it can be relied
upon to cooperate with Lewis to
smash the miners. The Provincial
and Federal governments will aid the
corporation in this as they have in
the past sent troops against the min.
ers when asked to do so by the cor
poration. The split will simply iso-
late the militants from the rest of the
miners, because the majority of the
miners in the western part of the
district will stick with Lewis. The
net result of the split adventure will
be the smashing of the militant lead.
ers of the rank and file. They will be
blacklisted and driven from the union
and the district leaving the backward
miners at the mercy of the Lewis ma
chine.
Miners Learn by Experience.
The lessons Of District is, of the
bitter period of 1909 when the min.
ers were split into two factions and
crushed by the operators as a conse-
quence, and the fact that the o. B. U.
could not maintain the organization
Of 100000 workers that it had follow.
ing the Winnipeg strike of 1919. shows
that if the miners follow the o. B. u.
in this adventure they will simply be
counting disaster. The only force
that can prevent this is the miIitants
organized in the Miners Progressive
movement, and the rank and file lead
ership of the Communist Party.

Board in endorsing the Wisconsin
messiah.
1.-THE Amalgamated Clothing Work
ers OF America, Local Sc, Pittsburgh,
Pa, condemns the attempt of the off,
cial labor leaders to lead the workers
into the middle class LaFollette camp.
And we emphatically protest against
the action of the General Executive
Board of the Amalgamated endorsing
the LaFollette-W Wheeler ticket in vio-
lation of the repeated expression of
the membership through our national
convention in favor of class labor
party"
The wave of resentment and con-
domination Of the arbitrary action of
the Hillman administration in flop
ping for petit bourgeois leadership is
sweeping one local union after an
other.
In Johnston's Own Camp.
In the camp of William H. John
ston, chairman Of the Cleveland con-
vention of the c. P. P. A., and presi-
dent Of the international Association
OF Machinists, protests are being
heard. AS a double wallop at the
Johnston machine and the political
chameleons of the Chicago Federation
Of Labor, Local Union 800, of the In
ternational Association of Machinists,
at it's last meeting, overwhelmingly
voted down any endorsement of Reb-
ert Marion and Burton Kendall
MerriIy They Roll Along.
In the meantime the campaign of
LaFollette rolls along merrily. The
slightest tinge of radicalism is being
expunged from the records in an eff
fort to cleanse himself from the
odium of his past and present afilia-
ton with the Socialist Party.
Labor, official organ of the railroad
broth r hoods, and authoritative
mouthpiece for LaFollette, reports
that preparations are being made to
meet the charge Of LaFollette's sup
posed anti-war stand. Since it is
based largely on the speech made by
him at st. Paul in 1917, the LaFol-
lette camp is reminding the elector-
ate that this speech was proved to
have been purposely misquoted and
that LaFollette was not a pro-Ger-
man or an anti-war man.
This does away with another Of the
excuses being given by alleged radi-
Gals for their support Of LaFollette.
Ignores Labor organ.
The latest stunt of the progress
sives" is the announcement that they
will support Senator Thomas Walsh,
Democratic senator from Montana,
for reelection. This is the newest
blow to the budding independent
Farmer-Labor party movement. The
Farmer-Labor party Of Montana has
it's own candidate for U. S. Senator,
but that means nothing to the Wis
consinite.
Nor does he take into account for
single moment the fact that the
Montana State Federation of Labor
in it's convention during the first part
of July, 1924, drew up resolution
condemning this same Senator Walsh
as an enemy of labor and author of
the infamous criminal syndicalism
law of the state.
But labor's opinion doesn't count
very much with LaFollette. Only
Robert Marion LaFollette counts with
him.
