Workers! Here is John W. Davis,
Attorney for House Of Morgan
John w. DAVIS, attorney for the Ho

JOHN w. DAVIS, attorney for the House
OF Morgan, the Telephone Trust, the
Standard Oil Trust and other monopolies,
and candidate for president of the United
States on the democratic ticket speaks in
Chicago tonight.
John W. Davis, since his nomination by
the democratic national convention as its
standard bearer has missed no occasion to
tout himself as friend of labor, The DAILY
WORKER takes this opportunity to call the
attention OF the workers to the record of this
lackey OF Big Business and serViIe tool of the
capitalist class.
John w. Davis makes political capital out
OF the corruption in the Coolidge cabinet.
He makes particular reference to the CRATER
Albert B. Fall who sold out the oil resources
of the country for a satcheIfuI of one
hundred dollar bills. But Mr.. Davis forgets
to mention the mansion he received from
the generous oil man Mr.. Bedford of
Standard Oil. This was one of the show
places visited by the Prince of Wales while
enjoying himself in Little England" on
Long Island, New York
John W. Davis, claims to be the author of
sections and 20 of the Clayton Act which
refers specifically to the rights of labor
They were the work of representatives Clay
ton and Carlin. Not that the act means any
thing to the workers. Even tho the following
WOIOS LHc tdUOI VI nuNldn DeIn2 is NOT
a commodity or article of commerce" appear
in the act, the workers still sell their labor
power at the factory gate as before and are
glad to get buyer at the buyers own price,
But it proves that candidate Davis is careless
with his facts and is willing to lie in order
to catch the labor vote.
John w, Davis lied when he stated that he
defended Mother" Jones and Eugene v.
Debs at any time in his career. The fact is
that instead of defending Mother" Jones
he prosecuted her and the other organizers
of the United Mine Workers who participated
in a strike in 1902 against the CIarksburg
Fuel Company. John w. Davis succeeded in
securing an injunction, restraining the or
ganizers from mingIing with the miners in
Fairmont and Morgantown. The suit against
the union organizers was brought by the
Guarantee Trust Company of New York,
which is still one of Daviss weII-payng
clients.
John w. Davis claimed that he defended
the glass workers. On the contrary, Mr..
Davis was attorney for the Window Glass
Manufacturers in the Federal Case 263 U. S.
402
John w. Davis was attorney for the non
union coal operators in their effort to crush
the United Mine Workers of America by
holding it liable to triple damages in a local
strike.
The daily worker., 1924-09-18

John w. Davis aided the Pennsylvania
Coal Company in multiplying state statute
to prevent sub-surface mining where caves
in endangered life.
John w. Davis aided the New York TeIe-
phone Company in getting $6,ooo,ooo year
more out of its subscribers in increased
rates.
The above is sufficient to prove that John
w. Davis is as pronounced a servant of Big
Business as there is in the United States
Big Business has made this country what
it is" said John w. Davis before his nomina-
ton. II have fine list Of clients What
lawyer wouldn't want them? have ]. P.
Morgan and Company, the Erie Railroad, the
Guaranty Trust Company, the Standard Oil
Company and other foremost American con-
Germs on my list. am proud of them..." This
is John w. Davis before he was picked to
lead the democratic party in this election.
John w Davis has now realized that if he
depends for his election on the votes of the
bankers and the capitalists, he will not get
very far He knows that the workers are
many. So he tries to pose as their friend
The workers have not a friend in any
capitalist candidate. Davis is no better than
Coolidge. Both stand for the capitalist sys-
tenn. LaFollette poses as progressive, but
he stands for the capitalist system also. The
workers need expect no more from him than
from Davis and Coolidge.
There is only one presidential candidate in
the field who stands for the interests of the
workers and he is William z. Foster, Com
munst and union man, running on the
Workers Party ticket.
Davis, Coolidge and LaFoIIette, differ only
in the manner in which they believe the
capitalist government should be run. They
all believe the system itself is alright but La
Toilette believes that the small capitalists
should bet better deal. He does not con-
slider the workers.
The Communist candidate William z.
Foster, speaking for the Workers PARTY
stands for the abolition of the capitalist sys-
tenn root and branch and for building on its
ruins the Workers and Farmers government.
Foster the union man, the strike leader.
the Communist stands for the interests of
labor.
Davis and his capitalist competitors stand
for the capitalists

toll, the workers in the industries and the
exploited workers on the land, to rally be-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-It ap-

commerce had protested to Coolidge
that business in that region was be-
ing ruined by the continuance of
the revolutionary fighting in the re-
public. Moreover, the proof that
business was being ruined by fight
ing 100 miles from ceiba was proved
by the hostility of striking steve

ported from Jamaica by the Ameri-
