nuclei that have been organized dis
prove this view.
The shop nuclei weld all our COM
rades in the factories into a compact
organization that dailys concerns itself

1t gives us an organization working
class in character that functions on
the field of the class struggle, in the
factories where the workers are ex-
plotted
From loose organization the party
is transformed into an organization of
action with actual contacts with the
masses in the factories. Such an or
ganization in the degree that it can
win influence among the workers can
be more easily modified to lead the
workers out of the factories in mass
action when the party so desires.
The shop nuclei form OF organiza-

transforms the party membership into
homogeneous mass in the various
shops instead of into separate enti-

Communist Municipal
Campaign Meeting In
St. Louis on Thursday

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 2s.-The
mayorality election campaign meeting
in st. Louis will be addressed by j.
Louis Engdahl, John Braun, Commun-
list candidate for mayor Of st. Louis
and John Mihelic, sub-district organ
izer, Workers Party, District No.
Thursday. April 2, at The Hall, 2412
North 14th st.
Our comrades in st. Louis made a
gallant effort to place Comrade Braun
officially on the ballot but the legal
requirements were too dificult.
Five hundred and sixty signatures
were obtained by the st. Louis com,
rades in a short space of time, but the
legal requirements were 1000.
Further the election commissioners
put additional difficulties in the way
Of getting Communist candidates on
the ballot by declaring that everyone
of the signors to petition, that is a
thousand of them individually or per-
sonally had to appear before a notary
public and declare that they wanted
the name of John Braun as candidate
ticket. In addition the election com
missioners demanded $4,000 fling
fee.
These capitalistic demands could
not, of course, be met by our working
class group at this time. More ex-
perience will be needed. However,
the comrades will go ahead with the
campaign holding the meeting on
April 2. Will distribute the party
program and other literature and try
to hold street meetings.

There are class war prisoners in

Glass war prisoners who have milit-
antly fought against the government
of the workers and peasants. They
are the socialists who in 1919, 1920
and 1921, when the Soviet govern
ment was beset on all sides and was
fighting a fearful struggle, went
among the printers and told them not
to do their work.
Two, resolutions were adopted with
a resounding aye by the meeting, one
demanding the release of Comrade

against the persecution of revolution

italist prisons of the world, and pledg-

GREAT PROFITS
FOR CAPITAL
IN MONOPOLY
Dividends for B o s S e s
While Workers Starve

Cash dividends totalling 647 per
cent in 10 years is the record achieved
by Utah Copper Co. with its 1924 re
port. It's mine, mill and smelter
workers are sweating for wages less
than so per cent above 1914 in the
face of a cost of living which has in
creased more than 20 per cent. Al
times during the 10 years their wages
represented only about one-ffth OF
the price paid by consumers while the
owners were taking one-half in rents
royalties and profits. For 1924 Utah
reports profit of $1,000, 100, giving
common stockholders return of GA
per cent on their investment.
The National Tea Co., known to
most housewives, turns in the highest
profit in its history. A net profit OF
s1,472,993 after all deductions means
$2766 a share on the no-par common
stock. But as each share stands for
an investment Of about $40 this profit
is return Of 1873 per cent for a single
years business. After generous divi-
dends this company retains undivided
profits more than 51s times the com,
mon stock.
The American Radiator Co. reports
1924 profit Of $11 ,153,72S after all
taxes and interest charges have been
paid. This means more than "a per
cent on the present par value Of the
common stock. But within less than
10 years there have been three so
per cent stock dividends increasing
the stockholders investment by near
ly 240 per cent without their risking
an additional cent in the business.
So the 1924 earnings mean a return Of
about 115 per cent.
The Otis Elevator Co. is another
concern which has helped jack up the
cost of building. It's 1924 profit of
$4,161,510 means over % per cent on
the common stock and If recent stock
dividends are taken into account it
appears /. that stockholders have a
profit Of over 3S per cent.
The Fleischmann Co., with its toll
on large part Of the country's bread
stuffs, shows net incomes after taxes
and interest charges amounting to
$9,S43,2 about 20 per cent for the
owners of common stock.
The North American Co., holding
company owning public utilities serv.
ing over 100000 customers, reported
a profit of s1O,5S2,7e4, equivalent to
S11s per cent on the stockholders in
vestment.
But for return on investment the
Orpheum Circuit Corp. is in a class by
itself. The 1924 net income of 81,
S97,314 means a return of 1929 on
each 81 invested by common stock
holders or AZ peecrtn. Cash divi-
dends are running at the annual rate
Of $50 per cent. Evidently amuse-
ment is one of the aspects of life
which communities could provide
much more reasonably on a co-opera-
tive basis.

WORKERS CHEER
FIGHT TO SAVE
POLISH COMRADE
Thousands Demand the
Release of Lanzutsky
(Continued on page y

NEW YORK, March GAN enthu-
siastic meeting took place March 20
at the Central Opera House under the
slogan Hands Off Comrade Lanzut-
sky" Each mention of the name Of
Stanislav Lanzutsky brought forth a
storm Of applause. The heroism Of this
comrade, who has defied the entire
Polish bourgeoisie, knowing that death
might be the penalty, command the
admiration of the working class of the
world.
Comrade Weinstone, who opened
the meeting as chairman, spoke about
the Importance of the meeting. This
meeting has been called by the Work
ers Party, the Young Workers League
and the International Workers Aid
to take up three important matters:
the threatened execution of Stanislav
Lanzutsky, the oppression and perse-
cution of the masses of revolutionary
workers thruout the world, and the
appearance in the field of relief for
political prisoners of a new committee
called the international Committee
for Political Prisoners"
Benny And The Lion
when Mussolini left his sick bed, /"
said Comrade Lore, his first visit was
to the geological garden, where he
petted his favorite lion cub. In sweet
tones he said to the young lion, You
and have won Yes, Mussolini has
won-sham capitalist democracy has
given way to fascism in many coun-
tries of Europe" Comrade Lore then
traced the actions of fascism thru
the various countries of Europe, where
destruction Of the working class move
ment is its only goal.
I'VE have our Mussolini also in
America" said Comrade Marley. The
chief Mussloini is John L. Lewis, car
of the miners union. And then we
have the minor Mussolinis-such as
Hutcheson, the tyrant of the carpent-
ers' union, and 'Comrade' Sigman of
the needle trades. We have trade
union government just as we have
capitalist government and we find
that the trade union government is
an adjunct of the capitalist govern
ment" Comrade Manley demonstrated
what the Communists have to fight in
the trade union acknowledgement
ton, expulsion and intimidation. But
the Communists will not rest until they
have swept all capitalist government
out of the way and have established a
government of the workers, as our
brothers have done in Soviet Russia :"
Orgy of Blood
Since the world war, the imperial
lists have staged an orgy of blood
against the workers and poor peas
ants of the world said Comrade Am
ter. They have attempted to shift the
burdens of the war on to the should
ers of the workers and peasants. Re
bellion has resulted-and the imperial
lists and their vassals have stopped at
nothing to crush the organized move
ment of the workers"
Those who are in Jail in capitalist
countries are there for a specific rea-

new DEPORTATION
LAW THREATENS
FOREIGN BORN
Protest Meeting on Next
Friday

NEW YORK CITY, March 29-The
foreign-born workers of this country
face new campaign of persecution.
The government is now enacting a
new bill that puts the fate of every
foreign-born worker in the United
States in the hand of petty Official
Any personal enemy Of the worker
may denounce him to the police-he
is dragged before the immigration Of
ficer, and ordered to be deported. He
cannot have counsel, he cannot take
the matter to court even if he has
been in this country for generation,
he must pack his belongings and get
out of this democratic" country.
This is direct attack on the for
eign-born workers. 1t is an attack
on the militant trade union movement
Of the country, for large part of the
militants, radicals and revolutionaries
in the trade unions are foreign-born
workers.
Attack Secretly.
1t is most significant that the CAPT
talists struggled this bill into con
gress without anybody knowing any
thing about it. It is also significant
that the capitalist press has remained
silent on the proposal The workers
are to be faced with the accomplished
fact and be forced to accept the con.
sequences.
The bill has been passed by the
house of representatives and will
come before the senate. The workers
of the United States must awake to
the seriousness of the situation. The
capitalists are again trying to divide
the native from the foreisn-born work
ers. They are doing this with the in
tention Of exploiting all Of them more
Intensely.
Demonstration Rally Next Friday.
This must not be allowed. The
workers of New York will demon
strate that they will not tolerate this
new step OF the capitalists and the
capitalist government against them.
On Friday, April 8, at p. m. they
will assemble at the Manhattan Ly.
ceum, Sc East 4th street. and let the
government Of the United States
know in definite terms that the New
deportation law must go!"
The meeting has been arranged by
the Labor Defense Council, and all
workers must attend. Bring the
workers from your shops and unions.
Kill this new attack on the working
class of this country.
