had been elected, Cal would have cabled before

Won Hindenburg is staunch supporter of the
capitalist system. He may not be the first choice
of Wall Street, but he will do nicely thank Won.

Putting Them to Work

Tho Won Hndenburg is never known to have
sweated over machine, he is very devoted to labor
provided it is performed by somebody else. This
goes for Andy Mellon, whiskey secretary of the
treasury and for Herbert Hoover, the chubby sec
rotary of commerce.
Statesmen are in quandary, whether to offer
fluctuations to Won Hindenburg on his elevation
to the Office until recently occupied by the yellow
socialist Ebert, who is down as we'll as out, in a
very literal sense The statesmen are willin like
Barkis to do the right thing, but diplomats never
say what they feel but what should be said There
fore no indecent haste will mark their observance
of the formal courtesy observed between govern
ments on such occasions.
Andy Mellon and Herbert Hoover, being real he
men, come out point blank for the sword-rattling
fascist, and opine thatehis election is good from
the business standpoint. This is the way they
reason: The major part of Germany's financing
abroad is accomplished and Won Hindenburgs
slogan of "Get to work" will react to the economic
stability of the Country.
This ''strong government" means one that will
crush German labor into the dust if possible. But
in this crushing process the German workers will
have the iron of rebellion driven into their souls
They will learn more about their social democratic
betrayers when the German Mussolini acting as
the slavedrivers of Wall Street. apply the lash to
their bleeding backs.
The slogan "Get to work" sounds good in the
ears of the capitalist Class 1t is meant for the
workers. Some day the same slogan will be raised
from the ranks of the emancipated proletariat, all
the world over but it will have entirely different
meaning. To the workers it will mean freedom
from capitalist rule; freedom to enjoy the product
of their toll but to the parasite capitalist Glass;
it viii mean "work starve," that is to those of
them who escape the lampposts in punishment for
their crimes.

Chester Wright-Oi Promoter

From the editorial page of the late and I'M
amented socialist daily, the New York Call, to
trustee and ballyhoo artist for Fort Worth oil
speculation This is the road travelled by Chester
Wright, ex-sociaist stoolpigeOn for American cap
italism during the war, later literary scavenger
for Sam Gompers and now peddler of oil bubbles
to his fellow takers in the trade union movement.
Fort Worth, Texas is as famous for phony oil
companies as Connecticut for wooden nut
megs. Gentlemen of oily flavor flourish there like
yellow flies on a heap of COW dung Wright opens
his nostris wide and what he sucks in makes him
happy. He is in his element.
Wright got canned recently by William Green,
who has his own stoolpigeons to look after. This
enterprising journalist looked around for a field
worthy of his steel. he picked on Texas. Knowing
that Fort Worth had anything but good reputa-
tion Wright wrote a long letter introducing him
self to his prospective victims. He explained that
the United States government had already cleaned
out all the oil crooks Evidently there is lot of
room for new colony.
This letter of Wright, copy of which reached
this Office, is the slimiest connection that ever
flowed from a swindler's brain. Uriah Heep and
John ID. Rockefeller, Jr in collaboration could not
produce anything like it.
It's long letter. but the gist of it is that
Wright, looking around for some place to settle
saw an opportunity to buy oil property cheap. He
jumped at it as a highway robber would jump on
a crippled bank messenger. 81 have found it pos
sible to arrange to take substantial interest in
this project and hope to find ways to take more"
You may ask where did Chester get the money?
It's legitimate question, but we can only hazard
a guess. Wright was a stooIpigeon for the Wall
Street government during the war. There was
money to burn in those days.
Since the end of the war he has stooled for the
capitalist class under the direction of the notorious
faker Sam Gompers. Is it necessary to say any
more? Treachery pays good dividends yet But
the time will come when the American working
class will stop payment on the checks.
In the meantime if you care to invest your saw.
ngs in a nice little oil speculation, Chester w.
Wright, stoopigeon, will take your money.

MOSCOW. April (By Maill.
TN the name of the German and Pol
L ish delegations, Comrade Domsky
brings in the following resolution on
the report of the executive:
"The plenum afirms that the devel-
opment Of the international situation
since the Fifth Congress has fully
confirmed the decisions of the Fifth
Congress on the political and econ
omic situation and on the tactics of
the Communist Parties.
1.-THE executive has acted in the
spirit of these decisions, and has fur
thered the Bolshevization of the Com
munist movement and the elimination
of opportunist tendencies. The plen-
um emphasizes the significance of the
international campaign for the unity
Of the trade union movement, which
has strengthened the left tendencies
in the Amsterdam International, hav-
ing undermined the influence Of the
trade union leaders and advanced the
revolutionization of the masses. The
plenum most resolutely rejects the at
tscks Of the right elements on the ac-
tivities of the executive, and afflrms
that in a series Of countries, the ex-
ecutive has, thru its intervention,
helped to overcome the right tenden-
cies. The action Of the executive was
especially correct in the Czecho-Slo-
valyiau Ouarfiny
I'm extremely difficult situations, be-
tween two revolutionary waves, in a
period of temporary depression in the
labor movement of some countries,
the executive helped preserve the
mass character of the parties, to
strengthen our influence on the work
er and peasant masses, and to in
crease their capacity for action. The
plenum expresses its confidence in
the executive, and calls upon all Sec
tons of the Comintern to support
with all determination and energy the
struggle Of the executive for Bolshe-
vization."

trade union movement which is split
