They Cannot Ignore Russia

Whenever the name of Russia was mentioned
within the hearing of the late Secretary of State
Hughes (late secretary of state), it is reported
by Washington correspondents, that the be-
whiskered gentleman got very angry. He hynotzed
himself into a mental condition which fixed the
status of Soviet Russia as that of an outlaw ma
ton with which the angelic capitalist class of
America could not officially deal
But economic facts have a funny habit of knock
ing the best thought-out plans into a cooked hat
and it now seems that Hughes anti-Russian bias
has knocked him for a row of penniless grand
dukes.
Unless all signs fail, and they usually do not,
canny Calvin Coolidge, the busness-like political
spiritualist from New England who would roast
hereto today and negotiate a loan with him
tomorrow, is going to talk dollars and rubles to
the hated Bolshevik leaders of Russia before many
moons. 1t is rumored in Washington that the pres
ent head of the American Federation of Labor does
not feel called upon to persist in the political line
adopted by his predecessor Gompers towards Soviet
Russia. The unqualified approval given by the
visiting British trade union leaders to the Soviet
regime cannot fail to make profound impression
on the American labor movement.
If Calvin Coolidge, the chosen leader flor the
moment) Of American capitalism, decides the time
Is ripe for this country to drop the policy of ignor
ing the existence of a powerful nation covering
one-sixth of the earths surface it will not be be-
cause of any love for the Soviet regime.
1t will mean that the capitalists of the United
States no longer intend to be isolated from the
opportunity to make profit out of the development
of Russia's natural wealth and of trade with the
people Of that country.
There is another factor. The United States
looks with anxious eyes the diplomatic strategy
of Soviet Russia in the Orient. Russia's diplomatic
victory in China and the humilating defeat suf-
fered by Hughes foreign policy in that quarter
may have more to do with the Standard Oil at
torney's resignation than appears now on the sur
face
1t looks now as if the most formidable world
capitalist power is preparing to recognize its arch
enemy, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics

subscription for the DAILY WORKER.


Governor Len Small delivered his inaugural
speech last Monday in Springfield before a large
audience. 1t marks the beginning of his second
term governor of the state of Illinois, No gov
ernOr in the history of this state has run the
gauntlet of more charges of graft and corruption
than Small. He is charged with having misap-
proprated approximately one million dollars of
state funds while he occupied the position of state
treasurer. 1t appears that the charge sticks
But we are not Immediately concerned with the
governors ilegitimate operations with the public
treasury. We will leave the bourgeoisie to worry
about that. What we are concerned with is Small's
attitude toward labor, particularly in view of the
fact that he had the support of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor political machine thruout the
state.
One would expect that in view of this support
the governor would give some indication in his
speech that the interests of the workers occupied
even little niche in his mind. But we scan his
inaugural speech in vain for any evidence that
labor existed far as he was concerned The gov
ernor deals with taxes, revenues, pardons for
criminals, hard roads, waterways and other issues
affecting the business elements but he had nothing
to say about the only class that produces all the
wealth on which Small and his fellow parasites
live, nothing about unemployment, wage cuts or
iniunctions.
Reward our friends punish our enemies That
is the political slogan of the labor takers No doubt
the takers get rewarded. The masses who supply
the votes on election day are left to the tender
mercies of the capitalist expoiters until election
time comes around again.
So long as the workers depend on their CAPT.
talist friends to help them they will merit the kind
of treatment melted out to them by politicians of
the Small type. There is only one party in America
that represents the interests of the workers polit
ically and industrially the Workers Party, which
urges the workers to organize for their own saliva
ton and not depend on Shiny capitalist politicians
whether masquerading under the banner of pro-
gressivism or not

fact" The quotation is taken from an article by
George E. Briggs in the Chicago Daily News, ac-
companying the first installment of the late
Theodore Roosevelts letters to Henry Cabot Lodge,
his lifelong political friend and advisor
The letters are nothing short of sensational and
are severe Indictment of the capitalist system
as one could desire to see published The news
paper syndicate which purchased them is making
good thing of it under the unwritten law of CAPT
talism, everyone for himself and the devil take

Roosevelt the alleged foe of the big corporations,
is characterized as their best friend by Chauncey
Depew, chairman of the board of directors of the
New York Central railroad. Depew knew what he
was talking about.
But the big corporations did not like Teddy at
first. They had to be shown They refused to sup
port his campaign for the presidency This made
Teddy sore Writing to Lodge he tells of Jim
Sherman's failure to get campaign contribution
from E. H. Hartman the railroad king Hartman
said that he preferred the democrats to win in
view of ROosevelts attacks on the corporations.
Sherman insisted that Teddy was really a good
friend of the corporations. To this Hartman re-
pned IN Ieddy's own words: HE was not in the
least afraid that whenever it was necessary he
could buy sufficient number of senators and CON
gressmen or state Legislators to protect his in
terests, and when necessary he could buy the
judiciary"
That was plain language and Teddy informs us
that the Standard Oil crowd and the Morgan in
terests gave expression to similar thoughts but in
more discreet language The corporations Roose-
welt writes, preferred to have Bryan or Hearst
administration as they could make terms with
them.
To Offset the bad impression his demagogy had
created in the minds of the money barons, Roose-
welt delivered a speech purposely prepared to set
himself right with them. In this speech he swung
on 'labor" and made it quite clear that the work
ers would meet with the iron fist if they got FESTIVE
While Lodge did his best to convince 'our Wall
Street friends" that Teddy was quite safe, he
realized that Roosevels speeches against the cor.
porations would bring him strength at the polls
Roosevelt himself was one of the most accom-
plished political mOuntebanks in American history
He also gives an inside view of capitalist politics
which should prove of great educational value to
the workers Roosevelt's letters to Lodge give one
a strong sniff at the capitalist cesspool.

is described by Bittelman. Lenin, the
comrade, who gave his best to the
Communist Party, who belongs body
and soul TO that party and Leninism
which now leads the struggle.
Comrade Fosters article on the Ell
Paso convention again reminds one of
the immediate grim realities. In his
usual powerful style he rips into the
treacherous camouAage created by
the corrupt bureaucratic to hide their
dealings in Imperialism, their prcpara-

with no vitality left for resistance.
The actual needs OF the TRACE unions
as brought forth by the militants but
shamefully ignored by the diamond
studded officials are emphasized by
Foster in no uncertain terms. Fred
Ellis lends a touch of rather grim
humor in picturing the horses
tail bowling before Samuel Gompers
at lei Paso.

HiUquit Sees Glasses

In a lecture delivered recently by Norris Hill
quit millionaire leader of what is left of the So
cialist party of America, before New York
audience, he declared that America has ceased to
be classless nation, such as it was a generation
or two ago.
This is rather enlightening. In our Communist
ignorance we suspected that classes existed in
America for many, many generations and if only
Hillquit read little history of the American
working class movement by one of his co-workers
in the field of yellow socialism, he would find much
evidence in the form of bloody battles between
the workers and the capitalists to show that there
we're classes in this country.
Hillquit is interested in proving that we are
developing the sinister phenomenon of class SO
ciety in America in order to lay the basis for his
fake labor party, the foundation For which he de-
clared was laid in the last election But Hill
quits proposed labor party would not be founded
on a recognition of the class struggle, but would
have its guiding aim the theory of class colabor-
alton to which the yellow socialists all the world
over are committed
There are classes in America today There were
always classes in America. The history of the
human race is history of class struggles. There
will be classes until capitalism is abolished and
thru that act mankind once and for all freed from
exploitation and class rule
The only movement that is effectively working
toward this end is the Communist movement under
the leadership Of the Communist International.
The Workers (Communst) Party Of America is
the party of the workers who recognize the class
struggle and who want to organize for the over
throw of the only class that stands between the
workers and their emancipation, e. the capitalist
class.

there are 100 Communist dailies pub

received $50 letters from its labor

dents that are working in the shops

them. At the same time the circula-
ton of the Pravda was 1884 dur:

received 954 letters from the Rab-
cors, the circulation went up to 17O,-
