and then these revolutionary elements
will link up with the social democrats,
then however, the question will arise
whether the struggle should be car
ried on against these parties.
Optimism lIl-Plaeed.
The chairman, who apparently con-
sidered these things from more
moderate standpoint, replied that he
thought his optimism ill-placed, since
the Communists secured 100000
votes at the last election. When the
question for fixing the seat of the
next conference was being discussed,
the ALBERT league displayed it's JUST.

Gratis; for, Of the three proposals, the
one suggesting the town &c was
backed by the statement that this
was near the town of Amsterdam, the
seat of the yellow international.
The leaders of international social
democracy cannot maintain that they
are not responsible for all this. The
estimate by this extreme right wing
war-like reaction of social democracy
is effectively taken quite correct.
Just at this moment when the i'm
perialists are preparing for another
bloody world adventure, the leader OF
social democracy, Karl Kautsky, pub
fishes his pamphlet, which, as regards
Technology, could easily serve as the
program for the Aubert international.
By degrees, every worker will realize
that the leaders of social democracy
bear the full responsibility for the
arming of the entire murder battalion
against Soviet Russia.

william Weinstone, general secre-

Irish Attack Exclusion. sc.ges
Comrade S. H. Benjamin; chairman
of the meeting, read a resolution
from the executive body of the United
Irish Republican Societies of Cleve-
land which declares that the action of
Secretary of State Kellogg in exclud-
ing Saklatvala, was hostile to the in
terests of organized labor thruout the
world, prompted by the agents of
British imperialism who are compar-
able to those now dominating the So
called Free State. The resolution
further greets the valiant struggle of
Saklatvala in behalf of the exploited
masses of Egypt, India, China and par
ticularly for his protest in the British
house Of commons; against the .execu-
ton of Irish political prisoners, by
the henchmen of British imperialism.
Futile Attempt by Wall Street.
Comrade /. Amter, branded the ex-
clusion of Saklatvala as a futile at
tempt by the government of Wall
Street to prevent the American work
ers from learning Of the rapid revolu-
tionary development in England, But
Just as the British workers have
learned from the experiences of the
Russian workers and peasants that
the workers can take power and use
1t to build a state that will serve the
interests of the producers, so too. the
workers of America will learn from
the British workers that thru politi-
cal organization. unity and solidarity.
they may more effectively defend
themselves against the onslaughts of
the capitalists. He further pointed
out the significance Of the action of
the recent trade union congress in
Scarborough. This action he de.
clared is the consequence of the grow
ing revolutionary crisis in England,
resulting FROM the attempts of the
Baldwin government to reduce the
already lew living standards of the
British workers to compete with the
colonial workers.

The cutter stammered in bewilder-
ment, seeking a way out of his pre-
dicament but finding himself over
whelmed by indignant workers, he
took to his heels. So widespread is
this sentiment among the cloak and

eagerly scan the pages of the Freiheit

Figuratively, the general trend dem

Political Economy and Takers
October 3, 1925.
Editor DAILY WORKER,
Gov. Silzer, of New Jersey, and to
day Mr.. Scott have written to the
New York Times hoping that Green of
the American Federation of Labor
would follow up his letter to Mr.
Pierce Of the American Wooden Co. in
which he denounced the high tariff.
lowwages and unemployment in the
cotton and wooden mills OF New Eng
land.
Mr.. Scott is so anxious to have Green
indorse free trade, he states that la
Dor leaders are students of political
economy, hoping by Icing and fiattery
to get the fakirs with him. To say
the average labor skate is a student
of economics is to libel him. Gompers
once said he read Marx and found
nothing in it and always denied that
labor was a commodity, proving he
was fool or a faker.
know there are thousands of work
ers that vote a republican ticket be-
lieving that a high tariff holds up
wages but as Gov. Silzer and this Mr..
Scott say, mo matter how, much pro-
lection a manufacturer has, he will
not pay dollar more in wages Shan
he has to-" But the faker Green Is
interested in peddling the labor move
ment and is very evasive on taking
any position on the tariff question, he
wants both capitalist parties bidding
for his support, thus the faker grows
hale and hearty.
But this week at Atlantic City the
labor skates will have to work oh.
so hard discussing world courts, war
debts, airships, prohibition, freight
rates and worst of all listening to the
sky pilots and politicians. As for dis
cussing capital and labor hell no.!
Workers join with the Communists
and throw these birds of prey off your (
backs, settle your own questions.
these fakirs won't settle it for you,
they despise you. l

RELAXES RULE ON
! TOURISTS WHEN
VISITING MEXICO

Relaxation in the immigration
regulations imposed by the Mexican
government at MeXicali was noted
Yesterday. when Nicolas Perez. chief
of the Mexican immigration service.
ruled that the order requiring for
cigners visiting Mexico 20 show pass
ports did not apply to tourists.
Tourists can be identified as
such. the chief ruled. by presenting
railroad ticket, automobile Ii
ccnse, personal cards, or other
means, which may show show that
thev are not residents in the immcd-
late vicinity of the border. City
county, State or federal government
men will be passed on their own
rccognizancc. the. chief said.
Perez denied that the order re-
quiring visitors to Mexicali to show
pa assports is in retaliation of the
action of the American immigration
service in demanding that MeXicans
must have passports before they will
be allowed to enter this country.
He stated that when the rule was
adopted by the American govern
crnment, it also appealed to the
Mexican government as being good
policy, and its adoption therefore
followed as matter of course.
Business in Mexicali is still prac-
ticllv at n standstill and business
men in that city are wondering how
long the present state of affairs will
