Speaking from an economic stand,

Four Points for Peace
In support of his contention Yano
makes these points:
1. Japan is not menaced with ag-
gression in any quarter and cannot
afford to keep up a huge military
establishment for which she has lit
tie use.
2. The era of Japanese expansion
through military operations and an
nexation if definitely past.

Hoosiers are urged by Neuman I.
Miller State fire marshal. to see that
the occasion is properly observed In
every community in the State.
1.-THE fire hazard is universally
dreaded" said Miller, land 1t is
feared alike in the silent forest, the
city, the country, the home, the shop
and factory and if vigilance relaxes
ruin and destruction are the
inevitable penalties.
1.-THE losses in America nave
reached alarming proportions. Lives
have been sacrificed and billions OF
dollars in wealth destroyed. We de-
stroy more buildings by fire IN
America than any other nation.
Every seven minutes of each day
farm home is destroyed, and each
hour the homes Of fifteen families.
Each day of the year $500 fires
take place in the United States, and
in this number includes one hospital,
five churches and five school houses,
causing the death of forty-one per
sons and injury to forty-seven
others.

And if it is necessary, then we can

yellow WORKERS; The Red In
ternational of Labor Union, com
prising some 100000 organized re-
volutionary workers, extends thru you
to the membership of the Industrial
Workers of the World, its fraternal
greetings and good wishes for the
best results of your deliberations.
You are gathered here at a time
which marks a turning point in the
history of the world labor movement.
This is reflected not alone in the in
ternal conditions of the l. w. W., but
in the intense ferment going on in the
world labor movement, arising from
profound changes in capitalist society
as a whole. No organization can set
itself outside the current of these
changes.
IMPERIALISM, the final and deca-
L dent stage of capitalism, is striking
its fangs deeply into the vitals of the
proletarian movement in a partial and
temporary sterilization of its power
to rule, using the most brutal and cum
ming weapons of naked force and in
ternational chicane.
Capitalist rule in Germany has been
halted at the edge of revolution and
saved" for time-at the expense
of utter enslavement of the workers.
In Poland, Esthonia, Hungary, Bulga-
ria. RoHmania, Jugo-Slavia, Italy, jap
an and other countries, the revolution
airy workers movement is drowned
in blood. Fascist cOunter-revolution
is openly arming to crush with viol-
ence the great strikes of British labor
coming in the spring. India seethes
under British rule. Great and savage
wars are being waged by France
against colonial peoples, while in
China a gigantic upheayal for nation
al liberation, led by the workers,
threatens the foundations of imperial
list exploitation of the Far East.
THE Imperialism of the United
L States is perhaps the strongest
and most cunning of all Dominating
world credit, it has laid hands upon
the wage and hour scale of every
worker in Germany, debating intern
al changes in the constitution-from
the eight to the ten hour day; lectur-
ing France, challenging England,
holding dozen nations in pawn. in
sorting and asserting its leadership in
the plumber of the Orient, while in
Latin-Amefica Wall Street banks
have their rule guaranteed by the
Monroe doctrine, backed by the army
and navy of this country.
What have we to do with all this?
Most of us have never seen these
countries and they mean nothing to
us-if we forget or disregard the fact
that capitalism is international, and
that capitalist imperialism connotes
an equal subjugation of the proletar-
lat of the imperialist country itself,
as well as the oppression of the sub
ject nations and the so-called back
ward" races.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-11-21

This process is already at work in
America, for example in the textile
industry, while in England it threat
ems the very life of the unions. In adj
dition, the tremendous export of CAPT
tai from America to stimulate produc-
ton in other countries inevitably ends
in sharper competition with goods
produced here, and American bosses
will surely use this to reduce the
American workers hitherto favored
conditions.
NOR is this all. For imperialism
IN is the age of monopoly. and inten-
sively developed technique of produc-
ton. The astounding combination Of
corporationsT and trusts into super
trusts, and the increasing proportion
of constant to variable capital, stimuli
taneously strengthen the power of
the employing class and weaken the

COME workers Of America may not
~ consider that the question of
German reparations has anything at
all to do with us. But we are due for
rude awakening when German work
ers, enslaved by the Dawes plan and
with cheap commodities paying in
creasingly large sums of repara-
tions, throw millions of American
producers out of work and open the
way for such wage cutting and union
smashing drive as this land has never
seen. The same may be said of the
foreign debts, about which Morgan, s
Guaranty Trust Bank has said the
following:
"The payment Of foreign debts
must inevitably be made largely
by the export Of goods from the
debtor countries. This injects
into the domestic markets of the
creditor country, foreign eompeti
ition. That there must be hardship
upon Individual Industries In this
process Of debt payment and read
justment is clear"

resistance of the working class with
unprecedented and chronic unemploy-
ment.
How are the organizations which
aspire to speak for and lead the work
ing class going to solve this histori-
cal crisis, which will become be-
tween short waves of relief, ever
deeper and more permanent? Not
alone, surely, by giving the growing
armies of unemployed the excellent
advice to organize on the job; not
by schematic dreaming that by some
mechanical means-without the inter
vention of the starving and oppressed
workers capitalism will collapse"
and the workers will inherit the earth,
peacefully, bloodlessly and without
struggle. 49, ynsamoaae :. nsoos
We trust that the convention will
emphasize, as did the British unions
with their" imperialism, that the
l. w. w. is the mortal foe of Ameri-
can Imperialism, that it recognizes
that the working class, employed and
unemployed, nationally and interna-
tionally, must be united upon a pro-
gram of implacable struggle to over
throw the rule of capitalism and set
up the rule of the workers-and that
the first step toward revolution is
the unity of the workers unions.
THE 1. w. w. still suffers from in
L ternal disunity, particularly in the
Lumber Workers No. 100 and Con-
struction Workers No. $40, has the
poison of those traitors who appealed
to the enemy class for injunction,
spread disintegration among the mem
bership. We trust that the convention
will strive to win back by all fair and
honorable means consistent with re-
evolutionary principles, those mem
bers of the rank and file who were
lost for a time to the emergency split
thru misunderstanding the issues in
volved and-strangely enough-while
at the beginning the l. w. w. press
of general circulation failed to explain
the situation.
The fact that large sections of the
membership did not see anything es-
pecially wrong in Paddock, Rowan
and company applying to the capital
list courts, is proof of two things; first
that it was necessary to come out
against the E. P. in the papers which
really reach the membership; and,
secondly, it was mistake ever to
have closed the columns Of this press
to so-called controversy" The SEN
timent favoring Rowan grew up un-
der a stupid censorship, supposedly
against Communists, but which shut
out necessary, even If controversial,
discussion Of revolutionary principles.
II such disaster is to be avoided
in the future, censorship must be
wiped out. Particularly must the G.
e. b. be made to understand that its
legitimate control" of the press does
not mean a blanket right to exclude
members from using the papers they
support when such members opinions
are not those of the officials. The
turnover in membership should be

to aid the I. w. w. in its struggles
against employers, the persecution Of
capitalist government and the an
archist splitters, they have also-and
properly-pointed out the weakness
es of the l. w. W. program, criticized
sharply as was deserved, the anar-
chist tendencies of influential mem
bers whose tendencies were the same
tendencies as the leaders of the emer-
gency split, and brot out for the pur-
pose of Qualification, the differences
between the policy of the R. l. L. q.
and the prevailing views in the
l. w. w.
Yet the R. l. L. u. holds that these
differences, while sharp and often ap-
parently irreconcilable, are more up
on the tactics of the struggle than
upon its fundamental line and aim.
We agree absolutely that the work
ers must ultimately base their unions
on the industrial form to fight effec-
tively-the r. l. L. U. pointing out,
however, that there is nothing magi-
cal in this form which might serve as
substitute for a militant policy of
have very conservative policies and
thus fail to defend the workers, while
some craft unions, despite their seri-
GUS lack of structural perfection, may
be militant and defend their mem
bers' interests the best their limita-
tons allow. Content, as well as form,
is important.
lWIE agree upon industrial unionism,
w then. We agree that capitalism
must be overthrow. We agree upon
the use of revolutionary direct action
by the workers. Many, if not most
l. w. w. agree with the r. /. L. U.
that, during and Immediately follow
ing the seizure of power by the work
ers, the capitalists will not acknowl-
edge defeat and will use every means,
including the enlistment on their side
in armed counter-revolution Of the
ignorant and backward throngs we
see about us on every hand.
Most fellow workers will agree that
during this period, before thee bour-
geoisie is completely broken, absorb
ed into the working class and their
ignorant followers are thoroly en-
lightened w whether this transition
period be long or short, of years or
decades-that the workers must rule
with an iron hand as a dictatorship
of the proletariat.
But at this point our difference in
views appears-owing to the steady
permeation of the /. w. w. in previ-
Gus years by the anarcho-syndicalist
illusions; first, that the dictatorship
is unnecessary and morally wrong;
secondly, that if it is necessary, the
unions alone can begin and carry it
out to completion.
TN the view of the r. l. L. u, the
facts of life and the unanswerable
lessons of the Paris Commune and
the Russian revolution prove that the

FLYER LOSES LIFE
AS HONOR AWAITS
Lieut.. A. V. MacAuIay Is
Killed in Plunge in Bos-
+ ton Celebration.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BOSTON. May 2-On the day
chosen by the Army and Navy Club
Of Boston TO reward him, among
others, honors for his record of safe
flying, Lieut.. Alexander V. MacAulay
of the Massa sachusetts National Guard
was fatally injured when his plane
plunged 500 feet to. the mud flats of
Boston Harbor. He died this after
noon a few hours after the accident.
Private Angus d. MacPhee of Chel-
sea, a passenger, was severely but
not fatally injured.
The airplane was wrecked. Mac
(. Aulay a World War pilot, made his
home in Beverly. Mass.
The machine, one of group of
Army, Naval Reserve and National
Guard planes, went aloft in maneu-
Ners of the 101st Observation
Squadron on the occasion of Loyalty
day and the rose drive of the Army
and Navy Club. Several machines
were in the air TO fly in formation
over the city when MacAulay's ma
chine took off from the East Boston
airport. Apparently some difficulty
was encountered, and 500 feet up the
machine slid into a spin. then dived
nose down into the ground.
Alive After Wreck.
Still alive, MacAulay. with Mac
Phee, was taken from the wreckage.
NacAuiay, pinned between the motor
and his seat, was suffering fractures
nf the skull. jaw. leg. arm and other
injuries. MacPhee sustained a broken
leg. broken nose and other injuries.
On Boston Common, where eXer-
cises were being held in connection
"a Of .,,-,iS- ~
ANlators of different branches of the
service for their records of safe local
lying, unknown to the hundreds of
watchers, an epic of the air service
was enacted.
Lieut. William Miller. seriously
crippled in wartime crash. was
chosen to present the trophy and read
the list of awards. Miller and Mac
Aulay had served together in the
war. They had been together last
night.
Friend Gets Word.
Word Of the accident, of which the
crowd knew nothing, came. Mac
Aulay was lowering between life and
death, perhaps dying. Miller was told
He was my best friend" he re-
marked quietly. And then the time
tor presentation came.
To Lieut.. +. d. Thomas of the
naval reserve force he presented the
trophy of the club for his 424 hours
of safe flying. 1T is appropriate
that it should be presented by one
who has struck his plane and
grounded" Miller said. as he faced
him. safe flying means a lot. It
is for safe flying that I present YOU
this trophy
Then he read the list of winners
and their times. Lieut.. A. Vernon
MacAulay, So hours" Miller read.
Readjusting his crutch, he turned
and went to his seat
