workers in other professions in Po-

hour shift, was wisely not mentioned
by these labor" representatives, not
to speak of raising protest against
it.
And in spite of this these arch
scoundrels have the brazenness to
carry on the world-comedy in Geneva,
and to devote four days of eager de-
bate over the eight hour day alone
and to exhibit great differences as if
they were fighting in all seriousness
in order to obtain the eight hour day
for the exploited proletarians of the
whole world But in spite Of all the
cunning of this crowd they were I'M
able to conceal what are the actual
differences with regard to this ques-
ton. The whole concern of all dele.
gates is nothing else but the profit
of the capitalists. It is true that
after the conclusion of the war and as
"a result of the pressure of the revolu.
tionary masses, Germany was the
first country to introduce the eight
hour day. On grounds of expediency,

and also in response to the pressure
of their workers, the employers of
other countries partially followed suit
with the introduction of the eight
hour day. But all of these states eau
tiously avoided recognizing the Wash
ington decisions. With the restrength-
ening of the German capitalist class
and the defeat of the proletariat,
thanks to the German Social Demo

ished in Germany de facto by a de-
cree of the 23rd of December, 1923.

practice SAT per cent of all proletar-
ians in Germany already work over
eight up to Is hours daily, these fig
ures do not comprise the miners and
agricultural laborers, all of whom are
working longer hours. This fact is
disturbing the Entente capitalists,
especially those of France and Eng
land, in the highest degree. They
stand in fear of the unfair competi-

in those states which have ''recog-
nized" and legally introduced" the
eight hour day, more than eight hours
a day are being worked. This swim
die is revealed in the most glaring
manner by the fact that on the same
day on which the representative of
the Polish government, Count Akrzyn-
ski, solemnly delivered the official
declaration of his government that
Poland had recognized and legally car
ried thru all the thirteen conventions,
including the eight hour day, the tele-
graph conveyed the news, that the
twelve hour day had been introduced
in the Polish mines and smelling in
dustry. One after another, NJ. Thomas,
Jouhaux, Mertens, Poulton, the Ga
Dor" representatives of the Entente,
expressed their enthusiastic apprecia-
ton to the Poles for their great act
in the interest of humanity" But
that at the same time the proletariat

ton Of Germany. And having regard
to the well known ruthlessness with
which the German employers have
always exploited their wage slaves, in
which they are backed up by the Ger
man state power with police clubs and
machine guns in their attacks against
the workers, the fears of the English
and French capitalists are not I'M
founded. In this respect, the tabor"
representatives and the employers

land are proceeding arm in arm and
delivering wonderful speeches on the
utility and human necessity of the

for the eight hour day is based on a
very real capitalist demand, lie. upon

this point cordially ceases for all

the German government representa-

also the German Amsterdamers under
