HONOLULU, April 26.-The sham

reason for the navy department to

ing more warships to aid American
imperialism, is supposed to be taxi
ing place today in the channel be-
tween the islands of Molokai and

Reds in Jail, Blues and Blacks Fight
The grand fleet is supposed to be
making an effort to land forces on
the two islands, while the defensive
forces are trying to locate the Lang
ley, an airplane carrier, and disable
it before the feet can launch its air
attack on Pearl Harbor. The landing
force was driven off with most men
killed by airplane gun fire.
The theoretical foe, which every
body knows is supposed to be repre-
senting Japanese force, is called the
"blues" and the defensive forces are
termed the blacks"
Not Supposed to Have Ideas.
Meanwhile the reds" are accounted

The common soldiers and sailors
who come from the working class
only, are invited to participate in
their countrys welfare in serving as
theoretical corpses in this sham bat
tie just as in real warfare they are
expected to kill and be killed without
having anything to say about the war
policy of the country and cannot even

GALES PROMISES
TO PROTECT WALL
ST. IMPERIALISM
u. S. Ambassador Gets
Pledge on Jalapa
(special to the DAILY workerl


MEXICO CITY, April 26-That the
regime Of President Gales is fully
satisfactorily to the Yankee imperial
lists is shown by the statement of
United States Ambassador Sheffield
yesterday that president Gales is the
right man for the right place"
The statement of the imperialist
agent was made following a long con-
fidential interview between Sheffield
and Gales, in which it is known that
the general policy of the Mexican
government toward foreign capital,
especially Yankee capital, was dis
cussed and in which Gales gave as
surances that Wall Street need have
no fears but that it's imperialist in
vestment would be protected, if need
be by Gales army against any revolt
of the Mexican people to foreign ex-
ploitation.
The particular occurrence which
gave point to the interview was the
dispute over the seizure of the, Jalapa
Light and Power company by the state
Of Vera Cruz, carried out as a legal
procedure for its failure to conform
to Mexican labor laws in its relations
with its employees.

tspeeIaI 70 rhe paIIy workerl

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 90
The Daughters Of the American Re-
volution, that is to say the revolution
Of 1776, which is far enough back
and bourgeois enough to have become
sanctified in the minds of the great
granddaughter of the original SNUG
glers who staged the Boston tea
party, have decided that any more
revolutions should be taboo, perhaps,
lest the daughters OF another revolu-
ton might impair the social standing
Of ancestor worship.
At their meeting here yesterday
they declared by resolution that they
would begin an intensive campaign in
every state against fred internation-
alists," foreign-born workers, and ode
structive revolution" plans for which
the silken danes insist is, mot a
myth in the United States, but prov
en- fact"
The perfumed and bejewelled as
sembiy declared that Communists are
intent on "indiscriminate attacks" on
government officials and wish to "cre-
ate and develop class consciousness
and hatred" The action of the d.
A. r. will aid the Communists consi-
derably to accomplish this purpose.

CLEVELAND JOB
OWNERS OPENED
FIRE ON LABOR
Chamber of Commerce
Is Leading Attack
Especial to The Daily Worker)

A0PCCtdi TO ne Odlly WOTkCTl
CLEVELAND (FP)- Never hit
u.s." Cleveland's union building
tradesmen, $4,000 strong, branded by
the head of the Chamber Of Commerce
labor relations committee as murder
ers and saboteurs in an address be-
fore the chamber, offered no other re-
tort than the above.
"Why doesn't he give the gruesome
details to the police If he knows so
much about alleged violence?" asks
the secretary of the Bilding Trades
Council.
The chamber speech was reproduc-
ed in full under an S-column headline
in the evening paper and is considered
the opening gun in the "big push"
shortly to be executed against the
Cleveland building trades by the open
shop crew. No names, dates or places
were mentioned in the indictment of
union labor.
Foreseeing the possibility of war by
the open shop forces officials Of the
A. F. of L. are trying to amalgamate
the two building trades councils. By
this measure many jurisdictional dis
putes may be smoothed out and labor
could face a. general lockout with
united forces.

Not Many Left
Says Quaker Oats
Worker, Cedar Rapids
BY TOM MATTHEWS

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, - what
time do the workers quit" I asked a
Quaker Oats, employee with al view
toward distributing advertising matter
among the men as they were leaving
the plant.
whats left Of them quit at 4
o'clock, and that's not very many" he
replied. zH
Further inquiry about the plant re-
vealed the fact that installation Of
machinery and employment of women
labor had practically eliminated the
male workers at this large Quaker
branch.
Quaker Oats" is one of those Pc
culiar monopolies which have pract-
ically made the retailers their sales
agents by virtue of advertising camp
aigns. The grocer has to carry this
company's products because his Gust
omers have been educated" to de-
mand them. AS is the case with hun
dreds of other commodities, the aver
age person will pay a higher price for
fancy package of Quaker" than he
will for an equally serv1ceable pro-
duct selling for much les.
Thus capitalist monopoly gathers
more power.
