Especial to The Daily Worker,

tSpeclai TO me Daiiy Workerl
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 14.-Af-
ter a morning, of brickIaylne on
paIatial new Fifth Avenue apart
ment house to be Inhabited by our
idle rich, Patrick Groom took a sand
witch in one hand and a Workers
Party Fund Subscription list in the
other and commenced a canvass of
his fellow bricklayers. Patrick
Groom refused to wait for the OPEN
ing of the Trade Union Educational
League Shop Collection Drive which
is scheduled to run for two weeks
to Sept. 8. He pitched right in and
went for his fellow workers at the
earliest opportunity.
No bricks were thrown at Pat as
he passed the list around among
the brickIayers who were eating
their lunches. In fact Pat received
cash, altogether eight dollars, sixty
three cents. That same evening ne
brot the proceeds Of this neat little
collection to the headquarters Of the
Workers Party Campaign Commit
tee, 21o {. 18th ST., and what is
more, he took a new subscription
list and went back on the job.
Pat was so delighted with his
achievement that he decided to be
even more effective in the class
struggle, and he filled out an appII-
cation for Party membership.
Great interest has been aroused
for the work OF raising funds in the
shops to carry on the campaign.
The Shop Collection Drive is on.
Hundreds Of Patrick Groons are on
the job. All workers are urged to en-
courage our Patrick Groons with
substantial contributions, and not
waste their time with useless dick
ering. ....

ITALIAN LABOR
IN DEFENSE OF
REBEL JOURNAL
Especial to The Daily Worker,

Especial to The Daily Worker)
MILAN, Sept. 14.-Armed
workers march up and down
before the offices of "Unita,"
daily newspaper of the Com
munist party of Italy, and of
"Avanti," organ of the Maxi
maIists, to protect their ma
chinery from destruction at the
hands of Fascist officials.
The offices of la Giustizia, "
organ of the United Socialist
party, and of "Il Corrierre della
Sera," which is published by a
group of liberals, have already
been seized by government
agents and the machinery con-
fiscated.
Seizure Legally o'Kayed.
The seizure of these papers is legal
ly sanctioned by decree of the
Chamber of Deputies, passed under
pressure from MussolInl, making ANY
newspaper which publishes material
detrimental to the interests of the
government and the nation subject to
confscation."
With the killing of Armsndo Casa
lini, a Fascist member of the Cham
Der of Deputies, by Giovanni Corvi,
a worker who wanted revenge for
the murder Of Giacomo Matseotti,"
Italy has again been thrown into tur-
moil.
Communists Call for Unity.
COMMUNISTS are calling for a united
front with the Unified Socialists and
the Maximalists to deal death-blow
to Fascist reaction. The Maximalists,
however, who refuse cooperation
with the Third international in spite
Of the fact that they have broken CON
nections with the Second Information
al, and the Unified Socialists, have
continued their policy of Weakened
opportunism and, after ignoring the
call to arms of the Communists, have
joined loose federation OF liberals
and social-democrats, organized into
a body known as italia LIBERIA" or
Free Italy"
The presence of former Fascists. in
this federation is natural In view of
the fact that Fascism is in itself an
opportunist movement most of the
Fascist leaders being former revolu.
tionaries, socialists and syndicalists.
In league with the social-democrats
are the leaders of the popular party,
group composed largely of Catholics
and led by the priest, Don Sturzo, OF
poets like Sem Benefit, and Of senti.
mental socialists.
The Communists, who have refus.
ed to join the constitutional opposi-
tion for legal action" are growing
daily In numbers and In influence.

EvEN tho soldiers are not at this
- moment marshalled in opposing
camps on the continent of Europe, we
learn that the money Of the different
capitalist nations is carrying on a
bloodless war. A Paris dispatch of
Sept. 9 states that Morgan may re-
new the $100,000,000 loan to France.
The weakness of French exchange is
attributed to the fact that British f.
nanciers are using their reserves in
francs to defend the pound sterling
against the American dollar. When
this pound-dollar war nears the break
ing point the Prince of Wales had bet
or look to some other country for his
Jazz. His popularity will quickly fade.

IN much favor of world peace. He
will stand for any drastic scheme for
the reduction of war ornaments. But

His Majesty's water wagons demand

totally ignorant of the English

ments.
Hire Notorious Lawyer.
Merritt Lane, a notorious corpora
ton lawyer Of Newark, has been EN-.
ployed by the Paterson silk manufac-
turers to carry on their legal fight
against the strikers. Lane, in con
nivance with local jay bird lawyer
by the name Of ]. ]. Clancy, is re-
sponsible for these scabs perjuring
themselves in the interest of their
bosses.
The attorneys for the strikers will
point out this evident perjury on Mon
day, when they appear in court to CON
test the injunction and demand that
these scabs be arrested for perjury.
Knowing the general character of
courts, it is doubtful If any action will
be taken against the paid liars who
are scabbing in the mills of Paterson.
However, the fact that they are ex-
posed, strike leaders point out, will
create added determination on the
part OF the rank and file OF. the Union
to fight against the injunction.
Fight Against Injunction.
If the injunction is made perman-
emit, the strike leaders declare that
they win deliberately order wholesale
violations of it and that they will not
permit the injunction to interfere with
the progress of the strike.
They point out, too. the fact that
the strike has been the most success
full ever called in the history of Pater-
son. To date, more than 10 mills
have yielded to the strikers demands.
The fact that the ranks of the manu-.
facturers are breaking has caused
many of the larger concerns to be-
come desperate in their struggle
against the union, hence they appeal
for the injunction.
Preparations for Defense.
Arrangements have been completed
for the defense of the Paterson work
ers and for raising funds for relief of
the suffering strikers.
At the mass meeting to be held
in Webster Hall, 119 East nth ST.,
Thursday evening, Sept. 10, the
leaders Of the Paterson strike will
tell story of the Injunction, police
terrorism and the fight against the
mill owners.
This meeting 10 free to the public
and miIitants should attend, in order
to become familiar with new STRAIT
egy developed during the present
struggle of the Paterson silk work
ers.

In addition to the other well-known
features of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad policies towards it's employees,
the workers here tell of other ways
in which the B. & o. is mice" to its
workers. 1t helps them own their
homes by loaning them money.
Sounds good, doesn't it? own your
own home with the help of the B. &

A Sting In The Gift.
But-like the "B. G. o. Cooperation
Plan" being boosted before the Ma
chinists' Convention in Detroit-there
is "but" in this gift to the workers
also. The workers who have taken
advantage of the "own your home"
propaganda have found out that there
is a sting in the tail of all B. & o.
gifts.
Most of the old employees bought
properties, expecting to settle down
and live the rest of their lives with
their good masters. The writer spoke
to several machinists, blacksmiths,
and carmen All of them told the
same story:
ooh, before the strike it was not
so bad One could work like man.
But now it is regular hell. Inspectors
follow every move one makes. At
quitting time a check-up man counts
the product of each worker. and sets
the standard for all by the highest
production. One must work like the
very devil to keep up, and those who
fail to do so are laid off,
"Homes"-With a String.
And that's where the Town your
home" proposition comes in. When
the worker doesn't keep up with the
constantly increasing speeding-up,
he not only loses his job-he loses
his own home" which he has purchas-
ed on the payment system with the
kindly aid" of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad.
This is not even ordinary compe-
tition," said one worker. ut is worse
than anything I have ever worked
under. II is rush and rush, with no
end to it. 1t is racing, II is suicide
This is the wonderful scheme, and
the wonderful railroad, that is being
boosted today at the Convention OF
the International Association OF Ma
chinists meeting in Detroit This is
the kind of cooperation" being urged
upon the unions by leaders" who seem
anxious to Guido the Taylor efficiency
system, or Henry Ford, and the other
slave-drivers of our capitalist system.

ing officially for the Sun Vat
Sen government. Ma 500 also
declared that WI Pei Flu, with
the secret support of certain
powers has openly provoked
war with Chekiang as the first
step in the subiugation of the
south western provinces OF
China.
DIR. Sun Vat Sen has long
been a thorn in the side of the
imperialists and is looked on as
the strongest bulwark in China
against the schemes of the rob-
Der powers, particularly Eng
land and the United States.
The attempt of WI Pei Flu, military
leader of the Picking government who
evidently is purchasable chunk of
animated protoplasm, to overrun
southwestern China in the interests of
foreign capitalists, will be stoutly re-
sisted, declared Ma 500. Continuing,
he said: Under the leadership of DR..
Sun Vat. Sen, we will not only repel
the invaders, but seize the opportunity
to batter down the strength of the
militarists and bring about a stable
and truly democratic government.
Warn Powers.
1--WE must twarn the powers against
any attempt at Intervention. Having
failed to exert their influence on be-
half of the people, they should not
now use it in the interests of the mill
tarists.
1--WE call the particular attention of
Great Britain to the pTottings of
'Comprador of Hong Kong. The
Shanghai Bank is using Hong Kong as
a base for operating against our gov
eminent. Arms have been secured by
Comprador from this British bank to
foment rebellion in Canton. 1t is diff.
ficult to conceive that these hostile
acts of the British in China have al
together escaped the notice of the
MacDonaId's Hypocrisy.
Privately the officials of the Sun
government comment acidly on the
liberal expressions of Ramsay Mac
Donald, his great love for humanity
and his peaceful aims. But they
notice his desire for peace is not so
keen in India, Mesopotamia, Egypt and
China as it is in Europe. While Mr..
Macdonald is anxious to keep the big
powers from each others throats, he
allows his agents in other countries
to foment rebellion in the territory of
friendly but comparatively helpless
nations.
The Chekiang forces defending
Shanghai have secured possession of
number OF new French armored
trucks. This would make it appear
that the French are playing a role in
China similar to what they played in
Turkey, that is taking the side oppo-
site to that taken by the British.
Plenty OF Man Power.

Chang, is in position to send 100, 900
troops against the Picking government
without causing him any inconven-
fence. General Feng Yah Slang has
