The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1924-10-25

Ior mere the working class has all the
means and auxiliaries of state power
at its disposal.
In the course of development of in
ternational revolution, social-democ-
racy and the trade unions under its
leadership became an extraordinarily
powerful counter-revolutionar force.
Not only did these abandon the in
terests Of the workers during the war,
in that they supposed their "own" i'm
perialist governments (social patriot
ism and social chauvinism), but they
also supported the rapacious treaties
of peace (Brest-Litovsk, Versailles);
they stood by the side OF the generals
(Noske), as an active force, when
proletarian uprisings were being
drowned in blood; they led an armed
struggle against the first proletarian
republic (Russia); they treacherously
betrayed proletariat which had al
ready attained power Hungary; they
became members Of the rapacious
league Of nations (Thomas); they
openly took sides with the employers
against the colonial slaves (the Brit
ish labor" party. The pacifst wing
Of the social-democrats (center} de-
moralized the workers by their varied
pacifist illusions and anti-force propa-
ganda, thereby providing capitalism
with the best weapons in acute revo-
Iutionary situations. International So
cial-democracy of all shades thus
forms the last reserve and strongest
support of bourgeois society.
Alongside social-democracy thru
which and by means of which the
bourgeoisie either suppresses the
workers or lulls their class vigilance,
we see the emergence Of fascism, an
other form Of utilizing the discomfort
of the masses, and Of directing this
discomfort into anti-revolutionary
channels. Both these methods, which
are unusual for normal capitalism
and which betoken a general crisis of
capitalism, at the same time check
the onward march of the revolution.
The abandonment of imperialist
illusions in the ranks of the working
class has freed the proletariat from
the influence of social-democracy and
fascism, and forms the soil for the
development of the Communist parties
which are uniting in the course OF the
struggle in mighty revolutionary as
sociation Of revolutionary workers
the Communist International. From
out Of the chaos and the misery, out
of the falling debris of decaying CAPT
talism, out of the mad and monstrous
new wars in which the bourgeoisie

 fOR AMBULANCE
Hospital Authorities Promise to
 Cooperate With Police

Assurances that the officials of the New Britain General hospital were highly appreciative of the splendid cooperation given them by tho po- lice department, and that they were doing all in their power to arrange a program which would eliminate the necessity of calling upon the po- lice to answer ambulance calls at night were communicated to the board Of police commissioners at their regular meeting last night by Chairman David l.. Dunn. from Superintendent T, Eben Reeks of the hospital.
 The communication was the re- suit of action taken at meeting of the board at which the commission CTS took up discussion of the prac- tice that was being made of using tho police patrol during the night for transporting patients to the hos pital. Chairman Dunn was assigned by the board to interview the hospi- tai officials to see if some arrange ment could not be effected that would eliminate this situation. as the police felt that they should have the patrol and driver ready for po- lice service at all times, and that while 1t was out on hospital calls, they were left in a precarous condi- ton should any emergency arise.
 pr. Reeks assured Chairman Dunn that the hospital will have some ar rangement completed by next week whereby patients will receive 2f hour ambulance service.
 Before the meeting, the board granted a hearing to man named Weir, who reported a dispute he had with Patrolman William Ora beck at the football game at Me- morial field last Sunday. The man made his grievance known 10 the board, and then Grabeck was called before the commissioners to tell his side of the story. Weir is reported to have complained that Grabeck drove a horse at the game Sunday in such a manner that the animal almost stepped on him, and then satd that the policeman ordered him away from the outside of the field because he remonstrated with him. Weir claimed that the policeman ex- ceeded his authority in ordering him to move, as he was outside the fence on city park property, where every body has a right to be.
 William O'Day of 26 Iawlor street, 27 years old. was voted ap- pointed to the supernumerary force of the department after he appeared before the board. O'Day is a sales man.
