The German Elections

Seven workers. two of them women, were shot
by the German police at Communist meeting in
Halle week ago. A protest meeting held few
days later was fired on by the police, one more
Communist worker killed and three wounded.
These murders occur in an election campaign
where the Communists are expected to cast huge
vote. The slaughter Of workers attending peace
full meetings is committed by the armed forces of
the German republic-a democratic form of gov
eminent under which every man and woman has
the right to vote.
But word of explanation seems to be needed
here. If the Communists and their supporters
meet to discuss the election issues they get shot
Evidently there is a large section Of the German
population that is outside the provisions of the
franchise.
Having established this fact, the conclusion fol
lows inevitably that in Germany as elsewhere the
freedom of franchise and the other privileges of
frees peech and assemblage supposed to accompany
ii, the whole institution of capitalist democracy
is gigantic fraud
We workers in America can learn much by
keeping close watch on the events leading up to
the German presidential elections where the
Mauser pistols of the police are teaching the work
ing class the real nature of capitalist democracy

Enters Via the Fire Escape.
BY G. S. SHKLAR.
(Special TO The Daily WnrlerN

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, March 49,
With his dignity unimpaired, the hero
of the Second (socialist) Internation-
al, Raphael Abramovich entered Pasa-
dena Hall, 18th St. and North Ave,
here via the fire escape, to make his
local appearance attacking Soviet
Russia. The hall was heavily guard
ed by the police force of over twenty
men and large detachment of de-
tectives in addition to numerous
gangsters of the socialist party.
Every worker entering the hall had
to pass the Gordon of spies, and de-
tectives, had to answer questions in
Yiddish and German and after tnoro
scrutiny he was either admitted or re-
jected. Over fifty people we're turned
away, among them were many work
ers who did not belong to the Work
ers (Communist) Party and were not
even known as sympathizers. Every
person was scrutinized very thoroly
by the socialist ochrana.
Members of the socialist manner
'hor who were scheduled to sing at the
Meeting were very few as the leader
If the choir and a large number of
members refused to sing for the coun-
ter revolutionist.
mot According Menshevik Book"
Abramovich started his speech in
German and theorized that the Rus
sian revolution is a failure because 1t
was not in accordance with the IDEAS
of perverted Marxism of the Second
International
This was followed by q flow of lies
that industry was at standstill in Rus
STA and that the railroads were in
poor condition.
When the leader Of the Second In
ternational began to tell lies that
were too apparent, he was interrupted
by an indignant worker who called on
Abramovich to prove his bluff. This
worker was Immediately elected from
the hail. But this did not stop other
workers in the hall who called Abram-
ovich liar. This was followed by
general commotion and about half
of the audience walked out singing
the International u
The socialists at that time got busy
under the protection of socialist POI
lice. One Of the workers was attack
ed and hit by socialist gangsters and
later the police followed him up and
after handling him roughly, had him
arrested.
Abramovieh Has Hard Time.
Notwithstanding the fact that con-
siderable numbers Of workers and
sympathizers were not admitted and
the fact that large number left the
hall or we're thrown out, Abramovich
had q hard time to continue. Con-

Abramovich Fails in St. Louis


ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 19-The at
tempt of Raphael Abramovich to make
a speech here against the workers of
Soviet Russia ended in total failure.
Only about $50 people came to the
meeting, most Of whom were work
ers who cheered for Soviet Russia.
The socialist thugs and detectives
made up most of the remainder of the
audience.
Hundreds of leaflets were distrib-
uted in and around the hall, which
exposed the treachery of Abramo-
vich to the working class, and his
aid to reign of the white terror in
Europe.
J. o. Bentall represented the Com
