The fact that they are good fellows,
but is closely bound up with the four
factors above enumerated. A new
breeze is blowing in the British la
Dor movement In my opinion Max
Beer is right when, in revolving the
British labor movement of the past
few years, he says that the situation
Of the British working class is be-
ing affected by the failure of the class
ic tactics Of the trade unionists and
by the old fighting method of the la
Dor party. The failure of the old
trade unionist tactics is also not acct
dental. 1t is not due to the defects
of the leaders or to the errors they
committed, but to the fact that Great
Britain is losing her monopolist posi-
ton in the world market and that her
influence and the influence of her col
onies is meeting with greater and
greater opposition. which is accelerat-
ing the pace of the class struggle
in Britain and is awakening the mass
es of the British proletariat to a new
life.
To this too, is to be attributed the
trade union minority movement
which has rallied 100000 workers
around Communist ideas land is con-
solidating the official left wing of the
trade unions) has, more than any
other, facilitated the establishing of
Anglo-Russian friendship.
The British Labor Party and the
Rural Districts.
A tangled situation is developing
in Britain. The labor party, in its
present form. is hardly likely to per-
sist. But it's prospects for the imme-
diate future are good. 1t has designs
on the countryside. At present 1t is
solely an urban party. At the last
elections it obtained So seats out of
SO in industrial constituencies, and
only 3S out of 23O in rural constitu-
encies. l think that we shall be wit
Messing a two-fold phenomenon in the
labor party; firstly, the gradual de-
cline of the prestige and influence Of
its inert leaders in the ranks of the
minority movement and even of the
Communist Party ESPECIALLY in work
ing centers and industrial districts)
and secondly, the growth of the influ-
ence Of the labor party in the small
towns and rural districts.
In tha Upht of historical narsnec-
tives, the strengthening of the posi-
ton of the labor party in these dis
tricts will effectively be a progress
sive move. Not so long ago Otto
Bauer in Austria, issued the slogan
Into the countryside" The Austrian

achieve trade union unity We con-
slider that where Revolutionary trade
unions exist, we must try to win over
every possible worker and at the same
time we must continue the fight for
trade union unity. To dissolve with
gesture our red trade union organiza-
tons when they represent an import
ant force in comparison with the re
formist trade unions, would be a gross
mistake.
The Anglo-Russian committee has
not yet been formed, but the latest
reports regarding the preparations for
it's formations are of favorable ma
ture.D The right Amsterdamers are
apparently rather alarmed at the de-
cisions of the British to summon an
official conference in conjunction with
the Russian trade unions We stick
to our former policy and Shall contin-
ne to fight for the unity Of the trade
union movement without running to
either of the extremes. We shall car
ry on the struggle everywhere, even
in those places where we have our re-
evolutionary trade urions
New Factors in the British Labor
Movementief5
Historically, our whole trade union
campaign arose out Of the position
which has developed within the Bri-
fish labor movement. The new fac
tors which are making themselves felt
in the international labor movement
originated in England The factors
facilitating the new movement are
briefly as follows: l. Great Britain
is losing her monopolist position in
the world market 2. The colonial
power of Britain is being shaken.
These two factors alone are of ire
mendous importance. The second fac
tor, in spite of the fact that is only
just becoming apparent, is already
making its influence felt upon the
whole economic and political position
of Great Britain. 8. The class strug-
gle is becoming more acute. 4. The
labor aristocracy is losing its priv
LEGGED position.
1t is therefore by no means acciden-
tai that a delegation of the British
trade unions recently visited Russia
and reported comparatively favorable
on our revolution. This is by no means
to be attributed to the personal quail
ties of the representatives Of the Bri-
fish labor movement in question, to

Coolidge Machine on
Trade Commission in
Plot to Wreck it

WASHINGTON, May 24.-Dismissal
of nearly 100 persons constituting the
economics staff of the federal trade
commission is the next move
which the Coolidge majority in the
commission is expected to take, to
prevent further investigation Of
methods of big business concerns
toward their competitors and the con-
Stunning public. Commissioners Van
Fleet, Hunt and Humphrey are report
ed to be preparing to wipe out the
personnel on which the work OF inves-
tigation of business scandals depends.
These economists and assistants have
been employed, under civil service
rules, for years in the special field as
signed them by the federal trade act
the gathering of evidence Of frauds
and other means of unfair COMPETE
ton and the presenting Of this evil
dence to the commission for its use
in disciplining the offenders. The in
vestigation of the lawlessness, ban
ditry and Wholesale crushing-out of
small competitors by the Big Five
meat packing companies of Chicago
an investigation which saved scores of
millions of dollars to consumers of
meats in this country in a single year
illustrates the duty which they have
been performing, and which the
Coolidge majority in the commission
now proposes to prevent them from
further performing.

NEGRO CONGRESS-
Gets RESULTS in
BIC STEEL TOWNS
Workers Take Holiday
to Hear Whiternan
tspeoIaI to rhe DaIIy w0rksrl

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio. (By MaiD -
Large audiences Of Negro and white
workers greeted Lovett Fort-White-
man who is touring the Youngstown
sub-districts, speaking in behalf Of the
American Negro Labor Congress.
Large audiences from Wellsvilie and
East Liverpool greeted Whiteman and
the congress is now on firm footing
in the steel and pottery section.
Negro workers joined with their
white brothers in applauding the pro-
gram of the congress and the steel
workers look to the congress as a
great aid in uniting Negro and white
workers against all attempts of their
masters to divide them on racial lines.
In East Liverpool the Negro work
ers laid off work for the day and made
a holiday of it. In Youngstown
strong committee of action was organ
lied and under it's direction the con-
gress will go ahead.
The steel and pottery workers win
send strong delegation to the COM
ing national session of the congress
to be held this summer
The steel workers are heatily in
favor of the congress and are enthusi-
astic about the much needed work
being carried on by the congress and
the fearless championing Of the work
ers' cause in a section of Ohio where
the II. X. K. rules supreme.

The Slogan Of Trade Union Unity put
Forward by comIntern.
Nobody, I think, will dispute the
correctness of the general policy laid
down by the fifth congress on this
question. 1t is true that our oppon-
ents in the right wing of the Comm
tern considered that the resolution Of
the fifth world congress on the trade
union question was essentially contra
dictory to the other resolutions adopt
ed by it. They regarded the correct
ness of our position on this question
as an accident" Events have since
proved that the trade union resolu-
ton of the fifth congress is wholly
in accordance with the general tactics
Of the Comintern. There is no need
therefore, at the present moment to
discuss this question in principle.
What we now need is to draw up prac-
teal instructions for our individual
fraternal parties.
The most popular of all slogans, the
slogan of the fight for International
trade union unity, was put forward by
the Comintern. With this the Com
munist International made a great
step forward. We must observe that
in certain countries the correct policy
on the trade union question in the
process of being put into effect, may
be liable to the same two dangers to
which the tactics Of the united front
in general are liable This is particu-
larly evident in France and Czecho-
Slovakia, and to a lesser extent in
other countries.
The first danger lies in regarding
these tactics as an unimportant man
euver, as tho the whole affair consist
ed in writing open letters to social
democrats and letting everything else
take care of itself. The other danger
lies in going to the other extreme and
advocating the hurried and uncondi-
tional entrance into the reformist
trade unions even where just as
strong or even stronger revolutionary
trade unions exist That is the other
extreme l have heard that certain
comrades in Czecho-Slovakia even be-
lieve that the weaker red revolution
airy unions are the easier it will be to

FIRST THOUSAND
DOLLARS SENT TO
IRISH SUFFERERS
Donations from Alaska
and New Zealand

The Irish Workers and Peasants
Famine Relief Committee has cabled
the first one thousand dollars for the
relief of the famine stricken people
Of the west OF ireland. This money
will be devoted to purchasing food
and other necessities for the workers
and peasants in the famine region.
Distribution will be supervised by
Mrs. Helen Crawfurd and Robert
Stewart The latter is secretary Of
the Irish section Of the Workers In
ternational Relief.
Despite many obstacles the work
Of the Irish Workers and Peasants
Famine Relief Committee is showing
results. Thousands Of leaflets have
been distributed thruout the country
giving the story OF the famine in de-
tail The capitalist press and papers
favorable to the Irish Free State gov
eminent have followed a policy of
silence in regard to the famine, this
forced our committee to, resort to the
publication of leaflets on a large scale
and also to advertising in the labor
and liberal press.
A Generous Donation
The heaviest contribution received
to date at the offices of the Irish re-
lief committee came from Miss Har-
riet G. Flagg of Brookline, Mass. Miss
Flagg became interested in the Irish
famine relief activities thru Roger N.
Baldwin, director of the American
Civil Liberties bureau and member of
our national committee. These five
hundred dollars were Immediately
cabled for use in the famine region.
Our appeal is drawing response
from every part Of America, contribu-
lions are coming even from distant
Alaska. Not only have the American
workers responded, but we have re-
ceived a check for $500 from New
ICELAND and a letter which deserves
reproduction here The letter is from
Arthur Mccarthy, OF Dunedin, New
Zealand and reads as follows:
Comrades: Enclosed please find
a pronteers' dole toward your fund.
The check is drawn from my FIRMS
account, which I use as savings
bank.
II hope that you will get magnih-
cent response from the workers, for
sympathy from the other classes Is
so exceedingly rare in my experience,
that / have regretfuIy como to the
conclusion that only the workers
themselves can remedy their wrongs"
Depend On Heaven
Il must not be assumed, however,
that there is a unanimous free res
ponss TO our appeal for aid. The
following excerpt form the exceptions
TO the general rule may prove interest
ing:
Have received your appeal and will
say that If I can help, will send my
contribution thru those who look to
heaven for help"
The people Of Ireland have relied
more on heaven than was good for
them. They are not yet completely
cured. Between the capitalists, the
landlords and heavens representa-
tives on earth, they have Jared very
badly. The Irish Workers and Peas
ants Famine Relief Committee is ap-
pealing not to heaven but to the bro
theirs and sisters Of the Irish workers
and peasants in the United States to
come to their assistance, and not only
bring them immediate aid, but help
70 bring about a condition Of society
where preventable calamities will not
visit them.
Money is urgently needed. Send

AS WE SEE 1T

Continued from page u
the Communists There is no sugges-
ton as to how the American workers
should effectively assist in the diff
cult task of bringing about world
unity in order to fight the common
enemy Nothing but the animus Of a
yellow socialist against the only party
that is revolutionary in aim and in
policy.
THE rubbish written by DR.. Thomas
4 is sent out to hundreds Of labor
papers twice month. There is not
spark from the class struggle in any
of 1t. Thomas, like his patron saint
Oswald Garrison Willard, is always
looking for some opportunity to hand
the capitalists a boquet He praises
Stanley Baldwin, British tory premier
for his action in giving a goodly part
of his fortune to the government after
the war, in order to help the treasury.
And he did this, according to Thomas,
without trying to capitalize his good
deeds for political purposes in an cleo
ton"
MTHY should not Stanley Baldwin,
W whose fortune is estimated at
$50 100000, give one fifth of his in
come to his own government? If
there is any thanks coming to him,
the gratitude should be expressed by
members Of his own class. Capitalists
Of the Stanley Baldwin type are much
more dangerous to the working class
movement than common frauds like
Horatio Bottomley, who rob on all
sides without regard to the interests
of the system as whole. If Thomas
prays long enough he may yet convert
Stanley Baldwin, Charlie Schwab and
John D. Rockefeller and make them
hit the sawdust trail.
D USSIAN monarchists are still con-
~ tributing to the gaiety of nations
even tho their erstwhile admirers no
longer contribute very generously to
the monarchists' Golfers. The poor
things are not taken very seriously
nowadays, but once in while an in
curing reporters with a sense Of the
ridiculous locates a monarchist nest
and has little fun with it's contents.
Enter Percy Jay Fuller, "humanita-
rian and flnancier" who keeps an Of
fee on Fifth Ave. Besides a box Of
cigars, the other equipment of Mr..
Fuller's office are several human
beings, looking much the worse for
wear and lack of jaw exercise on
starches, and proteins.
EULLER is engaged in the task of
L preparing for the restoration to
the Russian throne of the Grand Duke
Cyril Vladimirovitch, who probably
does not know that the Cars throne
is now being used by a bootblack.
This remarkable individual declares
that he does not need money, that
his own resources are sufficient. This
fact alone should clinch the conviction
that he is insane. The idea OF a
mentally salubrius monarchist turn
ing down cash is unthinkable. Fuller
admitted that Cyril did not know all
the ms and outs of the preparations
for his restoration, but such little
trifled should not bother a grand
duke. 1t should not be overlooked
that Mr.. Fuller is selling stock. No
doubt he reasons logically that any
body crazy enough to expect the re-
turn of the Cars in Russia should
be good candidate for a block OF
stock in Greengoods Inc.
