rs not forget-rwithr the ssDcial=demo
cratic police authorities, Severing
and Richter. These social-democrats
are using every possible means in
the election campaign to weaken the
Communists and strengthen the So
cial-democratic party. In Berlin they
are not contenting themselves with
prosecuting the Communist members
Of the Reichstag, but the lesser func-
tionaries also are being arrested in
masses. The press bureaus of the
Police President Richter and the
Minister Of the Interior Severing pub

The Communist Party Of Germany
is carrying on this electoral campaign
in a situation in which the we'll
known and effective speakers Of the
party cannot appear in public at all,
and every other kind OF election work
is seriously paralyzed by police inter
ference. At the same time con-
centrated attack of all parties, from
the German nationalists to the social
democratic party, is being organized
against u.s. Under these extremely
difficult conditions the election cam
paign will be a veritable ordeal for
the Communist Party Of Germany. It
will have significance which far
exceeds that of other election con-
tests.

the bourgeoisie, not the social-demo-
Gratis, not the police, not the law, but
the indifference and lack of interest
of large circles of the working people
to parliamentarism. The radically in
clined German workman is so con-
vinced Of the futility of parliamentary
procedure, that is becomes more and
more difficult to drag him to the poll.
The Communist Party of Germany is
devoting special attention to the agi-
tation for convincing these sections
of the workers that every vote which
is not recorded on Dec. z is a vote
for the reduction of wages and
against the amnesty. A defeat of the
Communists on Dec. z would only in
crease the arrogance and the brutal

worsen the situation of the prole-

G. r. Das, party leader, are in Jail,

Violent crimes have been very

the new regulations Of Macdonald dc
not cover these cases. During mum.

MacDonald's defeat in the British

COMMUNIST CAMPAIGN In GERMANY

abstention from voting, due to the
lack OF interest on the part Of the
masses IN the parliamentary farce,
the Communist Party Of Germany in
Hamburg obtained $1,000 votes. The
social-democrat did not succeed in
gaining any increased vote in Ham
burg That which was demonstrated
in Hamburg on Oct 26, will be seen
again in the whole of Germany on
Dec. z.
The party is carrying on this cleo
ton campaign absolutely on principle.
1t is evident that in the present
period of increased terror on the
part OF the bourgeoisie, there is not
much likelihood of democratic flu
sions existing among the working
class. The idea Of opposing a Com
al-democratic-labor bloc
to the bourgeois bloc, i. e. an ALI
ance with Severing against Jarres
would indeed be stark madness.
But in the election, the party natural.
ly upholds the principle of a united
front of all workers against the bour-
geoisie and 1t extends from the
workers to the employees, the officials,
and particularly to the radical small
peasants organization. The Com
munist Party of Germany is using the
election campaign as means of rous-
ing the whole party and the whole of
the working class. The questions
which are being put in the foreground
are those of the everyday life of the
proletariat: wages, hours of work,
increased cost of living, and especial
ly the amnesty. The 7th of December
must demonstrate that the working
masses of Germany will have nothing
to do with the Dawes plan, that they
refuse starvation wages and a 10
hour day and that they demand the
liberation of the political prisoners.
Besides this the Communist vote on
Dec. Z must be demonstration for
the taking over of power by the
workers as against the rule Of cap
ital. The Communist vote on Dec. 7
will be a demonstration against the
League of Nations fraud and in favor
Of an alliance between proletarian
Germany and Soviet Russia

which were either not represented in
parliament or were in the minority.
Think Of the Bolsheviki, the Jacobins,
Cromwell's party. Even in Germany,
legal parliamentary elections in Oct.
or Nov, 1918 would never have pro-
duced a majority for the republic,
for the overthrow OF the Hohenzol-
Terms, the workmen's and soldiers
councils. Thus the German bourgeoisie
will sleep no more quietly even
if they succeed in forming better
Reichstag.
Like Russia in 1905.
In many respects the Germany Of
1928 resembled the Russian empire OF
1905 Just as the defeat OF the revolu-
ton of 1905 in Russia gave rise to a
period of widest reaction, 30 the
German bourgeoisie would like to
take revenge for the fright suffered
in 1923 by "Stolipin" period.
The German miniature Stolipin has
already been found in the person Of
Jarres, minister of the interior who,
every few weeks states in his circul.
ars that penal servitude has very
good effect on the Communists.
This little Stolipin has unfortunate
ly not the faintest idea of what is
actually going on among the German
population. Were he to observe a
country in which the prosecutions
are especially violent, for instance
Wuertemberg, he would find that the
Wuertemberg proletariat has at no
time stood more firmly by the Com
munist Party of Germany than at the
present moment, has never been
more ready to fight nor more willing
to sacrifice itself than today---ina spite
of the innumerable arrests and ar
bitrary acts Of the Bazille-Bolz gov

BIG EXPLOITERS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec.
4.-Many large corporations
are violating the Sherman anti
trust laws, according to the re-
port of Attorney General Har-
Ian F. Stone, issued today.
Those large trusts which
were found guilty were released
with the payment of small fines.
Many of the legal proceedings
have been in the courts for
years.
Harvester Trust in Courts.
The international Harvester Trust
company has managed to drag charges
against it thru the courts for many
years. The case, which was tried in
St. Paul, is still awaiting decision,
altho it is common knowledge that the
International Harvester company has
held monopoly Of agricultural ma
chinery manufacturing for over
twenty years.
Mentions Shop Strike Injunction.
speaking OF the injunction granted
against the striking railway shopmen,
Stone says, "This case arose out of
the railroad strike of 1922. A tenn.
porary restraining order was issued
Sept. /, 1929. The defendants moved
to dismiss. Briefs for each side were
submitted, and the court on January
5. 1928, in a written opinion denied
the motion to dismiss. On July IL,
1928 the court rendered its opinion

eminent. On the same day final de-
cree was entered, making permanent

This is one of the notorious cases
in which the government of the

breaking agency, bringing suit against
the railway shopmen's union and lin
