Mexican Government
Looks for New Note

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 4.-Both the
American embassy and the Mexican
government today were expecting that
Ambassador Sheffield. on his return to
Mexico, would bring a note clarifying
Secretary's Kellogg's policy regarding
Mexico.
Either the diplomat will bring such
a note, it was believed, or coincident
with his start south after conferences
with President Coolidge and the head
of the state department Secretary
Kellogg will issue formal declara-
ton Of policy.
Gales expects the next declaration
of the United States to specify what
Kellogg meant by his mention Of dan
ger to lives and property and rumors
of revolt against the Gales govern
ment.

pushed this action upon Fitzpatrick
and N0ckels A number of local unions
had already condemned the United
Garment Workers, and the fact that
1t would have come up in the meeting
Of the Federation any way pushed the
Executive Board into action.
Without question this action aided
the strikers at least morally. But, it
does not go far enough. The strikers
need and want the active support Of
the labor movement. A call from the
A. F. Of L. for mass picketing would
assure the success of the strike. But
instead of this practical step, they
passed the buck to Bill Green, who
promptly told them to keep their nose
out of that situation. Which they are

cago Federation of Labor. A cali for
financial support has always met with
a quick response And the least that
could have been done was for the Chi
cago Federation to give them moral
support.
Nockels condones Scabbing.
However, Ed. Nockels at the meet
ing of the Federation let 1t be known
that he at least condemned Rickert
and his scabbing policy with fingers
crossed. In fact, he admitted publicly
that if he was IN the same position as
Rickert he would do exactly the same
thing.
As for the letter condemning the
Communists-tha was for the pur-
pose of offsetting any accusation that
might be made by the reactionaries
thru whose grace they retain Their
present positions, that they were in
league with the left-wing in condemn
ing the scabbihg tactics of the United
Garment Workers. II also expressed
heir resentment against the left-wins
or having compelled them to officially
AXE such action They would rather
lave had a slumber of private confer
snces with both sides to the controv
ersy stretching over the entire strike
period.
The sending of this letter to the
local unions is public declaration, to
the reactionarfes that control the la
Dor movement, that they are good and
kosher, that they have learned their
lesson and will never again stray from
the fold, and that from now on orders

The labelling of the Labor Defense

shows the depths that these once mis-
named progressives have sunk to. The
Tammany Hall trickery of Fitzpatrick
and Nockles is shown in the following
excerpt from the letter mentioned;

the many revolutionary groups that

of the left wing movement under the
leadership of the T. U. f. l.. which

No Fundamental Difference.
The personal antagonism that existed
between Gompers and Fitzpatrick and
Nockels, which to very large extent
forced them to assume a progressive
pose, made them rather reluctant TO
go back into the arms of Gompers, so
official pressure had to be brought TO
bear. Ideologically they never differed
fundamentally from Gompers. The
difference that existed was more
personal one than of policy.
The Chicago Federation of Labor
took the lead in many progressive
moves, such as the demand that the
Canadian government release Trotsky
and allow him to proceed to Russia,
the recognition OF Soviet Russia, the

It is mistake to think that Fitzpat-

Their support was passive. In other
words, they did not oppose them.
However, Gompers demanded a

their minds very quickly and scamper
back into 'respectability"
There is no doubt that many labor
officials, who were opposed to all the
progressive measures passed by the
Chicago Federation OF Labor, but who
because of personal friendship had
supported Fitzpatrick and Noekels
served notice upon them that they
would have to line up, abandon their
passive support and enter into an open
campaign against the progressives and
if they refused to do this, somebody
else would take their place as presi'
dent and secretary of the federation.
So they decided to eat crow and the
letter sent to local unions condemning
the progressives, raising the red scare

MANY German comrades have
perhaps come here with the idea
given them by the bourgeois and so
cial democratic press, that here there
is a wild and cruel dictatorship, which
suppresses every initiative, every
freedom and every creative attempt
viii Find Freedom for Workers.
Let the German comrades discuss
this point with any workers, in any
occupation, in any part of the Soviet
Republics. They will learn from
them that nowhere in the world is
there such freedom for the toilers as
there is with us, and they will also
understand that in the circumstances,
with capitalism surrounding us, and
with the existence of tens OF thous-
ands of organized Russian, Georgian
and other white guards, with the ex-
istence of social revolutionaries and
menshevik counter -revolutionaries,
which any capitalist government can
buy for the struggle against the
workers and peasants republic, it
would be stupid and treacherous to
let the sword of the proletarian die
tatorship fall from our hands.

is that the Labor Defense Council had
its national Office in the Federation Of
Labor Building from 1922 until May,
1925. and quite naturally they used up
the old letterheads.
As for it being a Communist organ
ization. Buck, the editor of the New
Majority, was the chairman of the
Labor Defense Council ever since it
was organized and only relinquished
this position when he moved to Wash
ington.
The labelling of the American Negro
Congress as a Communist organiza-
ton by Fitzpatrick and Nockels will
receive the whole-hearted support Of
every exploiter of labor in the coun-
try. They want to keep the negro I'M
organized. BY propaganda they have
for too long built a wall OF race pre-
judice between the white and the col
ored workers. The American Negro
Labor Congress is making a success

understanding between white and Ne

bringing large masses Of negroes into

Against Negro Workers.
Il is all right to talk about equality
Tor the Negroes and as long as IL re-
NAMED in the talking stage Fitzpat-
rick and Nockels were for 1t. But as
soon as the Negroes tired of a mere
talkfast decided to organize and thru
organized effort abolish Jim Crowism
and fight for social political and eco
nomic equality, and Nockels, who like
the twins Daughtery and Palmer,
raises the red scare, sends a letter to
every union in the city of Chicago
which practically asks them to con-
denim the American Negro Labor Con-
gress.
II is true that in all of the organiza-
lions mentioned in the letter Com
munists play their part, In some they
play a leading part. The Communist
work within every working class or
ganization and very naturally in this
stage of development of the American
labor movement, always find them
selves in the minority.
The writer along with w. y. Foster,
Joe Manley and other Communists are

touch with them for many years.
