BROWN TAKES EXCEPTIONS
 MORTLAkE MAKES REPLY

Central Village. Conn. June 6, ,25 Editor of Putnam Patriot, Putnam. Conn.
 My Dear Sir:-I wish to congratu- late you on your enterprise in adding comic page tO your paper ft is quite the fashion with the papers of our larger cities. but hardly to be expecte in q city of the size 0f Putnam think
 t would add tO the enjoyment f you followed more closely the style of the metropolitan comic sheets. and have ike legend or story follow closer under the picture-a Ia petey Diuk. and Cah- per-for there is possibility that what is intended as a joke. might be taken seriously by some of your read CTS.
 When "MOrtlakes in the June 9th issue calls "The revamping of the law relating to the State Board of Agri- culture. one of the most important things the general assembly did. he certainly hits the general assembly an awful slam. The general assembly has been thoroughly cussed for its slavish obedience to the orders of the Rorabaek machine. but to call this act one of the most important is certainly most cruel sarcasm.
 Next after lot of silly twaddle about the decline of Connecticut agri- culture. Mortlake indulRes in further sarcasm at the expense of Commission CT Ph.io Plat end sdamns him with faint praise" by the continued use of the word TIT this change is to be taken" etc. and "If agriculture Is h be saved by legislative enact ments.t he pokes more fun at the new commissioner
 Martlake savg fhera is reason ta tblnk etc. but don't say what the reason ls. The reason was published openly in the Hartford papers during last winter and was freely discussed iH the Capitol lobby and elsewhere The reason and the only reason is that Senator Plat has been one ef the lead ing heHchmen of ] Henry Roraback and was one Of the strong candidates for the position of acting lieutenant governor when the changes came as a result of the death ef Senator Rrande- gee. It is common knowledge that the S5. .OOg political job was ta be his TO- ward for being good and playing with tho machine Ii was published openly and never denied

Equality Before the LGw-Two Cases

There are two news items in our issue of yester-
day that call for comment.
One tells of the lynching of a Negro in North
Carolina, merely suspected of an attack on a
woman. -e"
The other is the story of the legal machine set
in motion in Indianapolis to free on bail Stephen

American style He has been wrapping himself in
a mantle of purity, posing as a protector of Amer
lean womanhood and the sanctity of the home, and
like all the rest ofethe eprous minded brotherhood
to which he belonged, has stirred up hatred and
suspicion among the nationalities and races that
form American society. There seems to be little
doubt of the guilt of this typical patriot but he is
given all the consideration to which he is entitled
under the law.
But the Negro in Carthage, North Carolina?
This 1Syearold boy is not given the semblance
of trial. He is taken by mob composed of
stephensons, tortured andklled.
Equality before the law? 1t is the sheerest
hypocricy to say Neither will there be any

farmers are organized to stop these and other bar

Hawaiian Heroes

Hawaii is on war footing and the officers, naval
and military, are happy.
The warfare is of the mimic variety, no one will
be killed with the possible exception of enlisted
men by accidents in the land naval batteries and
the officer caste is having hell of good time
In the military prison of Hawaii are two private
soldiers who saw thru the sham of national de-
fense," national honor" "protection of our dem
ocratic institutions and other phrases with which
the masses are Supplied and led to slaughter for
the profit of those who rob them in time of peace
They understood the imperialist nature of cap
italist military preparedness and said So
According to the capitalist press the heroes are
the officers who strutting around the Hawaiian
islands bedizened with all the panoply of warfare
But the real heroes of the Pacific are these two
soldiers and their comrades who dared to challenge
the whole might of American Imperialism in one
of its most important outposts. They are paying
the penalty that capitalism, like all other slave
systems exacts from the slaves who rebel.
But these two Communist soldiers have caused
hundreds Of thousands of workers to stop and
think of what all this mobilization Of death,dealing
machinery is about.
OF just as much Importance to the colonial work
ers and those Of continental America as the naval
maneuvers is the fact that right within the heart
of American Imperialism working class revolt has
made itself heard and felt.
Crouch and Trumbull will be remembered long
after the rusted naves of Imperialism are the play
thing of the tides, the two workers who struck
the first blow at the war-making machinery of
American Imperialism in the colonies
They and their fellows in the Hawaiian Com
munist League wanted affliation with the Com
munist International-the only enemy of world
capitalism. This is their crime and their glory.

I the discussion of the Communist Party
of Russia, and in the question of the
tactics of the Comintern executive.
Bordiga demands. the revision of the
Comintern tactics in the question of
the united front, in that Of trade union
unity, in the question Of workers
and peasants government, and in the
organizational questions. He refuses
to admit his own mistakes.
Trotsky's attitude is not wholly
identical with that Of Bordiga, but the
resemblance is great. Trotskyism is
dangerous for the Comintern because
it offers a point of disqualification for
right tendencies. 9ase C4 HS9te
TRENT (France) In France the
4 right wing was opposed to the
formation of trade union committees,
and trade union fractions; in these
questions the right wing wanted to re-
treat before the anarchists; it OPP
posed the reorganization. of the party
on the basis Of shop nuclei, it opposed
the creation of party apparatus, it
supported the right wing in the Ger
man Communist Party, it succumbed
to the illusions created by the Mac
Donald government propagated the
freedom of factions, and underestim-
ated the role of the party. The right
wing agrees with Trotsky. 1t at
tempted to establish international con-
nections. The French delegation Of
ficially asks whether Trotsky has any
connections with Souvarine, Rosmer
and Monatte, and it expects an un-
equivocal answer. The Communist
Party of France has combatted and
,iquidated Trotskyism which is par
sicularly dangerous in petty bourgeois
France.
DELL England: The British party
- is in full accord with the central
committee of the Communist Party Of
Russia and with the executive of the
Comintern. During a sterilization
period like. the present one in central
Europe, the party must not yield, but
doubly intensity it's activities. The
right tendencies in the Comintern are
based on the failure to grasp the es-
sence of Bolshevism.
1t is not at all surprising to hear
the bourgeoisie praise the renegades
Newbold, Price, Hoeglund, Balaban-
ova, etc.; it is somewhat more difficult
to explain their praise of Trotsky.
The British party is aware that Trot-
skyism is an old problem.
Discipline and self-criticism are
necessary. to overcome our own errors
The central committee of the Com
munist Party of Russia has acted cor
rectly.

ternational phenomenon, and points
out that in Germany Trotskyism oc-

the party to the class, in the questions
relating to the inner structure and
leadership, in the question of the

view that a bloc-revolution is possible.
