But the LaFollettes, the Eberts, fne
Hendersons, the Vanderveldes, we're
controlling the workers organizations.
Instead OF leading the workers to the
battle against capitalism, they took
up the battle for capitalism. They be-
trayed the working class, just as La
Toilette will betray the working
class.
But since that time a new power
has arisen in the world. In all coun-
tries Communist parties have been
organized, and have been crystallized
in the Communist international. This
is the greatest fact in history. For it
means that when the next great war,
now definitely in preparation, is
launched upon the world by capitalist
imperialism, the Communist Interna-
tional will raise the slogan Of world
wide proletarian revolt, will lead the
working masses against their oppres-
sors, and smash once for all the capital
list dictatorship and the capitalist sys-
tenn, and will establish thruout the
world the rule of the workers"

it the expression of all their indict.

their salvation.
THE working class is doomed to
disappointment. The LaFollette move

Ours is the opportunity, ours is the
duty and ours is the responsibility
In the hands of the Communist Party

You remember, comrades, when the

member how anxiously we waited for
news of the struggles of our COM
rades abroad and you remember how
jubilant we we're when the news of
their splendid achievements reached
us.
They watch us Just as anxiously
today. The Communist international
and every party of it, is watching to-
day our conduct on the field of strug-
gle. They want to know how far we
have travelled on the path of Lenin-
ism, they want to see by our actual
achievements in the struggle, how
much of the teachings of the great
master we have absorbed and trans
lated into action The Russian work

they build a Communist society, are

role the American capitalist class
plays and they want to know how
well we wage our war against it in
the most powerful capitalist nation in
the world.
I'VE will not disappoint these com
rades.
Under the crimson banner Of the
world social revolution, led and in
spired by the words and deeds Of
Lenin, bound in unbreakable ranks
by the discipline of the Communist
International, we go forward in this
struggle with the battle cry of fight

Ounne SAID IN part:
1.-THE entrance Of the Workers
(Communist) Party into national
campaign for the first time, the plac-
ing Of Communist candidates on the
ballot for the first time in American
history, is an event of greatest sig
nificance, not only for the party it.
self but for the world revolutionary
movement. 1t marks the entry Of the
Communists into the national strug-
gle as potential force with which
American capitalism will have to
reckon. The program of the Com
munist International for the organ
ization Of the working class for the
conquest Of power is heard for the
first time by thousands of workers
whom we could have reached by no
other method at a time when they
are agitated by the problems arising
out of the decay Of world capitalism.
Never has there been a time when
so many American workers were
questioning the more manifest evils
of capitalism. Never has there been
such disgust with and distrust of
the parties of capitalism Never be-
fore have millions of workers and
farmers shown to the American CAPT.
talists the solid front of revolt that
with all its confusion and fioundering
represents the first stirring of broad
masses Of the American working class
aroused to action by expressions
which they feel, but whose causes
they do not yet understand.
Neither do they visualize the cure
and to give them knowledge Of the
underlying causes of their misery, to
convince them Of the necessity for
clear thinking and clean cut and
militant action, to harden their reso-
luton with the doctrine of the class
struggle, to organize them for the
conquest of power, to mass them be-
hind the slogan of the dictatorship
of the working class, is the revolu-
tionary task of the Workers (Com-
munist) Party of America.
Aids Europe's Ruling Class.
"The American capitalist class is
furnishing the depleted commissariats
of European capitalism with the
munitions of counkeNrevolution. The
American capitalist class has given
the ruling class of Europe new hope
that 1t may be able to prevail against
the forces of social revolution. The
American capitalist class has exacted
its price for this and most of that
price it expects and plans to have re.
funded thru the sweat and blood Of
the workers of Europe and America
that 1t hopes to coin into dollars.
THE Dawes plan makes America
the center of world counter-revolution
and it holds over the heads Of the
worlds workers the constant threat
of imperialistic war.

U. S. CEDAR LOSES OUT.
German Pencil Makers Get Supply
From East Africa.

Fast Africa has replaced the United
States as the source of supply of
cedar for the Nuremberg pencil in
dustry. This German industry, which
centers here. has fully recovered from
the after effects of the war and in
trade circles it is reported that the
manufacturers have enough foreign
orders on hand to keep the plants
in full operation many months.
Both the cedar and the graphite
for pencils are imported, the main
graphite supply being found in ST.
IBERIA. Previous to 1914 the cedar was
imported principally from America
and the West Indies, but the war up
set the old channel of trade and new
fields in East Africa have been de-
