Night of the Ball.

At last the night of the ball came.
Cinderella, alone In her dreary kitchen,
secured her pots and pans, but the
tears that ran down her cheeks blind
ed her so she could scarcely see.
The stepsisters. dressed in their
elegant and expensive new finery,
came to show themselves off before
Cinderella. Hoping to make her en-
vious, they swept up and down the
room, smiling and snirking.
How do you suppose you would
look in such finery, you cinder-
wench?" they scoffed. Then with
their mother they got into the elegant
coach which was waiting for them
and rolled away to the ball.
Color this dress soft, pale blue,
trimmed in pink up the front.

The FederatiOnist on Soviet Russia

The offoialdom of the American Federation of
Labor cannot be honest even with itself
In the last issue of the Federationist edited by
William Green since the death of Samuel Gompers,
there is published an interview on Russia with
John Turner head of the Office Workers Union of
Great Britain and disciple of Emma Goldman.
Needless to say, the interview is composed of the
stereotyped lies and insinuatons to which we have
become accustomed.
The official report of the British trade union
delegation is not even mentioned in the article
in spite of the fact that its favorable character
has caused comment thruout the world and drawn
a clean line of division between the bureaucrats of
the Amsterdam trade unions and the British trade
union movement THE most powerful group in the
Amsterdam international.
The suppression of the statements of Purcell,
Bramley and others of the majority report of the
British trade union delegation, the publication
of the statements of lone minority of one whose
influence in the British labor movement is non
existent, shows conclusively that the Greens and
VOLS do not want the truth of Soviet Russia to
be known to the membership of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor that they fear even the considered
and conservative views of British labor men on
Soviet Russia and its accomplishments.
Purcell is the head of the Amsterdam Interna-
tional. His statements certainly more valuable
than those of Turner yet he will not be allowed to
tell what he thinks to the duespaying union men
of the United States if the A. f. of L. bureaucrats
can prevent it.
The whole incident is Illuminating 1t stamps
the enemies of Soviet Russia in the official circles
of the A. F. of L. as enemies on principle and not
because of lack of information. This is the way
we have always regarded them and obviously we
have made mistake.
In no other channel of expression have the i'm
perialist masters of the American labor takers
shown such outright evidences of their control as
in the war conducted on the government of the
Russian workers and peasants by the COMPRISES,
Greens, WOlls and Lewises unless it be in the be-
trayal of the Mexican labor movement to Wall
Street

Italian Metal Workers Strike

The capitalist press is puzzled by the news from
Italy. 1t cannot understand the strike of 100000
metal workers in northern Italy who are nominal
ly members of fascist unions.
The explanation is simple and for that reason
alone would never occur to capitalist editor. 1t
is that these workers are not fascists and never
have been. After the failure of the huge movement
that eliminated in 1919 in the seizure of factories
and collapsed because the leadership did not under
stand or were unwilling to seize the state power,
they were discouraged and disheartened their out
look was that of anarchosyndicalism with which
fascism has much in common.
+. These workers accepted fascism as millions of
workers in other nations accept capitalism, but
they have no love for it. The outlook seemed hope
less and they waited to see what fascism had to
offer.
It's castor OIL daggers, black-shrts and clubs did
not fill the stomachs of the workers. It's program
was, in spite of its military character and bonn
bastic utterances, program of surrender to the
capitalists. 1t modified workers against their own
interests. This is a very mild description of the
mOnstrOus thing known fascsm, but it will serve
for this short article.
The Communists have never ceased their work
among the masses. Their program is program
of struggle not with but against national cap
italism.
The strike of 100000 metal workers is the best
possible proof of the effectiveness of Communist
activity and the complete breakdown of the fascist
leadership among the masses. 1t is not a huge
group of fascist workers that are striking, but a
group of workers. essentially revolutionary, from
whose eyes the scales have fallen, and who are once
more swinging into the international struggle
against world capitalism.
Fascism in Italy dies, but Communism and the
Communist Party live.

uals by the bureaucrats thru high

'abor financial institutions the con-
lection of the labor movement with
he Civic Federation and the fSecur-
ity League; the united front of the
liberal intellectuals with the rotten
bureaucracy of the labor movement,
the capitalist press and the capital
lists themselves against the only fight
ing section Of the trade unions-the
left wing organized around the Work
ers (Communist) Party and the Trade
Union Educational League.
Browder, having assembled this
mass of material, all of it having that
putrid purplish tinge and bed smell
which distinguishes decaying organic
matter, puts on his rubber gloves, cuts
off characteristic sections, and one
by one examines them with the Marx
ist-Leninist microscope.
His findings are all in this little
pamphlet. 1t is doubtful if SO much
light on the workings Of capitalist
agents inside the labor movement
was ever contained in a booklet of
81 pages.
What are his conclusions?
That American capitalism, in its
final stage Of Imperialism, has pur-
chased outright the upper layer of
the labor movement-the officials
and made them part Of the middle
class. AS such they have no further
interest in the labor movement as an
instrument to combat the employers.
In return for their own economic
security the labor officialdom are now
betraying the trade unions by endors-
ing and giving a labor color to meas
ures like the "B. and o." plan which
are only company unions in disguise.
AS soon as the organized workers are
under the influence Of this injection
of dope, they will be shackled, their
organizations destroyed and when
they wake up it will be as industrial
serfs.
One more point Browder makes so
clear that it is hardly necessary to
mention it here:

XkIITH the growth OF the army Of
wv wage workers there grows the
element of final destruction of the
capitalist order. The quicker the pro-
letarian majority of society increases
its relative strength the sharper de-
velops the conflict between the exist
ing forms Of production and distribu-
ton with this majority of society.
And the sharper this conflict grows
the more revolutionary becomes the
struggle OF this proletarian majority
against the beneficiary minority
classes in society, the capitalists.
And in the same ratio grows the pros
pect Of a final victory of the revolu.
ton.
The leading groups of the capitalist
class are fully conscious of this. In
realization of the dangers threatening
their social order, they capitalists are
using their political power to enhance
their dominating position.
With the sharpening of the antag-
onisms between the American work
ers and their immediate exploiters the
problems of the class struggle in this
country have increased in numbers
and in intricacy. To concentrate on

Bloody German Democracy

Six Communists have been killed and thirty
wounded in Halle, Germany, and the election cam
paign is just beginning.
"schupos," the "green police" so called because
of the color Of their uniforms the official terrorist
organization of German socialdemocracy fired on
an unarmed crowd of workers at a meeting where
Thalmann, Communist presidential candidate, was
to speak.
This incident, taken in connection with the col
lapse of the German republican" bloc, the ex-
posture of the socialdemocrat party as corruption
lists and grafters in addition to their betrayal of
the German workers to American and allied cap
ital the violation of the agreement to withdraw
troops by the allies after the socialdemocrats had
prevailed on the masses to poll a majority vote
for the Dawes plan, requires no undue addition
of undue optimism to make the strong strategic
position of the German Communist Party the
major event in German political life. The Com
munist Party appears as the party of and for the
masses
1t is certain that the Communists will cast and
count several million votes, sufficient to make an
other election necessary by preventing any candi-
date from securing the necessary majority. The
government, actuated by this knowledge, is pre-
pairing for terror during the campaign, terror
directed against the Communists with the object
of cowing their supporters.
Capitalist terror always meets some success at
first but in this case it will not stop the German
Communist Party from rolling up a total vote
whose numbers will be actually less than that of
its supporters.
Election campaigns are not end of Commun-
list activity as the ruling class of the world knows.
All power to our German comrades in the new
battle in which they are engaged and which is for
them a bloody and dangerous in spite of all
the democratic" rules by which it is supposedly
governed.

secretary of labor has mislead millions
Of workers into the belief that in the
department of labor the workers were
given direct representation in the exc

deportation delirium of 1919 has done
much to dispell such illusions. But

The capitalists of America fearing
the growing dissatisfaction and the
increasing strength Of the American
workers are busily engaged in dividing
the workers among themselves. The
department of labor is the outstand-

this task. This department plays the

Soviet Timber Export
Program Out Stripped
By Actual r e S VI t S

MOSCOW, Feb. 13.-(By msiD-The
timber export program for the year
1923-24, which had been provided by
the state planning commission as
amounting to 1874 million roubles, has
been carried out lis per cent in val.
ne. according to a report made to the
central expert bureau.
There has been a notable increase
in the exports by private merchants,
almost entirely from the Far Eeastern
territories.
AS before, England is still the big.
gest market for Soviet timber, having
consumed about 65 per cent in value
OF all the exports OF timber from the
Union in 1924. The next in the list Of
purchasing countries are Holland and
Germany.
An interesting item in the mention.
ed report is the gradually increasing
share Of Soviet timber in the markets
OF the Near East and the appearance
OF Russian Far Eastern timber in the
European market.

any immigrant workers, active in the
struggle for the wage workers against
capital.
The bill turns the department OF la
Dor into police department for every
labor exploiting corporation and prac-
tically outlaws alien workers.
The bill is just one of a series OF
outrageous attacks against the work
ers that must result from a capitalist
government at time when the class
struggle has advanced to point
where the ruling class openly puts a
strikebreaker in office as president,
an open shop propaganda as vice
president, and the councillors OF the
most corrupt private corporations as
members of the official family Of the
president.
In the face of such attacks the
workers of the United States must
forget differences in nationality, creed,
color and politics and combine in
united front action against this bill.

only one defense-the solidarity os ali

ment who head the banks and bust
ness corporations which they have
started with union funds, capitalist
institutions with no gisemblance of a
labor character, in which the office
employers are after not even allowed
to organize, are carrying this same
subyersiye policy of their House of
Morgan masters into the Canadian

smoothing the path of American i'm
perialism in its colonial and semi
colonial fields.
The betrayal is therefore not con-
fined to the United States-it is a
gigantic scheme that follows the same
lines as the investments of Wall

ance of the Canadian and Mexican
workers to the tyrannies and robber-
les of the American capitalists.
At home it debauches the organized

More DeportGtionS

There have been ,44S deportations under the
provisions of the new immigration law in the last
six months, states Senator Reed of Pennsylvania
in an interview given in Washington, D. c.
The secrecy with which these proceedings against
fOreignborn workers are yelled is evident. There
has been publicity whatever except in few
cases where the victims were well known and in
terest aroused in their behalf
A new wing of the secret service has also been
established, according to the senator. Two hundred
and fifty police have been recruited and at all
Mexican and Canadian ports squads of inspectors
are stationed. immigration has been reduced to
almost nothing In the last six months 67,3O3 i'm
migrants arrived; 4S,120 left the country for per-
manent residence abroad, leaving the net increase
in foreign-born population only 1928.
The gates are shut to the working class of
Europe.
This being the case, the question arises of the
purpose of House Bill 1896. 1t establishes new
excuses for deportation proceedings and gives the
department Of labor and immigration the widest
powers-powers that il certainly does not need in
view of'the 4,44S deportations admitted.
The proposed law then is simply terrorist
measure. FOreignborn workers are to be subject
to an intensified espionage. Blackmail of aliens
by labor department officials is to be encouraged.
The principal ofense will be joining a union or
working class political party
House Bill 1896 has nothing to do with stopping
immigration. 1t is TO make easier the persecution
and deportation of foreign-born workers already
here, workers who have incurred the anger of the
bosses. 1t is another union smashing measure that
can and will be used to the limit in the open shop
drive that the capitalists are preparing and that
is already launched in the textile and coal mining
Industries.
Resistance to wage cuts and the open shop by
foregnb born members of unions will be construed
under the proposed law as crime Foregn-born
workers who have not yet become citizens could
be automatically eliminated and in unions like the
United Mine Workers, the International Longshore-
mems Association Food Workers and even in many
unions of the building trades great inroads could
be made on the membership.
During the congressional recess the labor unions
should marshall all their forces for the defeat of
this vicious anti.labor measure.
