Government by withdrawing the armed
forces from all these territories, as
the visible sign that they are not free
partners? Or does you hatred OF
bloodshed not carry you as far as this
very obvious way of preventing it?
And then you say that the Bolshe-
viks, faced with the Russian Empire,
claim that they gave freedom Of choice
to Georgia, the Ukraine, Finland, PO
land, ETC." What exactly do you mean
to insinuate, George Lansbury? Did
they or did they not work for indie
pendence of the subject peoples, years
before the rail- of Tsardom? Did they
or did they not actually give freedom
of choice? Why not speak out in the
language of the capitalist press and
Emma Goldman, if that is what is In
your mind? Or, if it is not in your
mind, why use such ambiguous lam
guage?
Can it be, George Lansbury, that
you want to hide the ambiguity of
your own position thereby? Can it be
that you want to lead the workers by
using phrases that sould revolution
airy, while at all costs preventing them
from drawing revolutionary conclu-
sions? We shall be sorry to think so,
George Lansbury. But what are we
to think of your suggestion that Brit
ish labor, out of the British Empire,
should create" Commonwealth Of
Free Nations, or replace" it by
Union of Free Nations-just as the
Bolsheviks did with the Russian EN-
pire-when you manage entirely to
slur over that, as the experience of
Russia shows, the first step towards
your goal would invlove the breakup
of the Empire as part of the over
throwing of the British capitalist
class?
1t is time we had some straightfor-
ward speaking from you, George
Lansbury. That is what the workers
need above all at the present time
from those who claim to be their
leaders!

The following article was written
for the Communist press by Comrade
c. M. Roebuck of Britain, takes issue
with George Lansbury on very i'm
portant question. In recent debate
in the House of Commons Lansbury
and such prominent "left winger" as
David Kirkwood, with others, walked
into the division with ]. H. Thomas
and Stanley Baldwin on the question
of giving preference to goods manu-
featured within the confines of the
British Empire. This action has
caused quite a furore in radical cir
cles in England and Comrade Roe
buck put the issue fair and square to
Lansbury, who usually is in the OPP
position to the right wing of the La
Dor Party.
Judging from the Empire" number
of his Weekly, it is very difficult to
imagine that Lansbury is still on the
side of the workers. Perhaps the best
thing is to ask him few questions.
George Lansbury In your article
last week you say that your support
of colonial preference was a vote in
favor of admitting only those goods
which are produced under fair con-
ditions." Are you ignorant, or do you
only pretend ignorance, of the fact
that the vast bulk of the goods con-
cerned in the vote are produced in
the Empire under slave conditions?
You go on to justify yourself that
had you been allowed to do So" you
would have put in words insisting on

Holding Fake Conferences.

Since Mahoney and his allies have
Joined the camp of the red-baiters,
there is no end Of fake conferences
held by the gentry. Last March Ma
honey held one in st. Paul, to elm
mate the farm-labor federation. It
was too proletarian to suit them. A
hand-picked delegation of discredited
and self-seeking politicians made up
that pow-wow. But the rank and file
of farmers and workers have not
focked to the program cooked up at
that meeting.
Minneapolis is as clean of the
farm-labor association, as Mahoney is
of socialism. No artificial conference
of red-baiters will instill the workers
with confidence in it. The workers
demand labor party, with a left
wing leadership and a labor party
they shall have! The future is ours!
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1925-08-15

Instead of putting up united front
labor candidate for mayor, and thus
yielding to the desires of the rank
and file, the labor takers headed by
the versatile alderman, Bastis, sup
ported capitalist candidates for
mayor. To forestall this plain treach-
cry, the Communists entered their
own candidate.
In the political estimation of men
like Mahoney and Bastis, in order to
elect the socialist laborites, an ALI
ance had to be struck with the CAPT.
talists. the basis of which was a COM
mon fight on the Communists. They
thus thot that they would insinuate
themselves into the good graces of
the capitalist class. Their mercenary
political character, suffered, as do all
such fellows, from spherical aberra-
ton. 3a
In the elections not a single left
winger, not one Communist was &C
tive, for the simple reason that cir
umstances in the control of Mahon-
ey's co-workers, made it out of the
question, beyond the issuance of a
general statement.
Splitting the Working Class.
The situation was this: The social
list laborites were hammering the
Communists for no apparent reason at
all. While they were doing that, they
we're deliberately splitting the work
ing class and preparing their own ig-
nominous rout. In reality, when they
slammed the door In our face, they
left themselves on the outside. No
traps which the capitalists set for
them. Mr.. Albert Bastis, their dis
tinguished trader, led them into II
blindly.
1t must also be remembered that
practically all of the now ex-aldermen
OF the laborite ilk, were elected on the
basis of waging a sharp class strug-
gle fight. In those days of victory,
even I. w. WIS participated in push
ing their elections. They won all
along the line. The working class was
aroused TO pitch OF real class enthus-
iasm. However, good signs, fine
booze and shady political and other
deals, combined with a total lack of

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 14.-Old man
Mahoney of st. Paul, reports that

ment which has sought to tie organ

Old man Mahoney declares that
the reorganization move was dictated
by the fact, that the disgraceful defeat
of the Socialist-Laborites last June,
has stirred the labor takers. And so
il has.
However. old man Mahoney tries to
leave the impression, that the COM
plete defeat of the laborites was in
some way the result of their connec-
tions with the left wing and the Com
munists. This is a piece of sophistry,
which would do honor to a Jesuit.
Nothing is farther from the truth, and
it is not Mahoney's mental senility
that causes him to prevent the truth.
It is something quite different. What
are the political facts in this connec-
ton?
Proposed United Front.
First of all, the Workers (Commun-
ist) Party proposed a united front Of
all working class organizations, on
the question of mayor and aldermanic
candidates. This proposal did not en-
tail the nomination of a Communist
for a single Office. II was an honest.

1t is significant, is it not, that be-

all elements of labor acted in the

Variety Store
Opens Tomorrow
To Be Under The Management OF
Joseph Coates, of Burlington

The Beverly Variety Store will
open tomorrow, Saturday in the
store formerly occupied by the Giles
Company at Five Points. This store
will handle a full line of kitchen
utensils and house furnishings and
promises to be store that has been
needed in Beverly for years.
The store will be under the man.
agement of JOS. Coates, of Burling-
ton, who has been affiliated with one
of the largest and best equipped
house furnishing stores in the east.
In an interview with Mr.. Coates,
he said "There will be no stock car
ried in the store that is not guaran-
teed and any customer who is not
satisfied with the purchase, may
have their money refunded. All sales
will be made at price equal to
everyone's pocketbook."
Do you realize what store of this
kind means to Beverly? 1t means
that you will no longer have to go
out of town for your wants. Beverly
today has stores of every description
grocery, hardware, drug, fruit and
produce, dry goods, and one of the
best theatres to be found in the
state, yet how many people patronize
the local stores. They would rather
go to another city, pay carfare, and
in most cases pay more for their
purchases than if bought at home.
Stop and think, what if all the
above mentioned stores were to van
ish overnight, then what would the
people of our city do. They would
have to look elsewhere for their pur-
chases, no more homes would be
built in Beverly, no more mills or
factories, no new families would
move here, in fact there would be a
terrible calamity. Where is there an
other city along the Delaware, the
size of Beverly that can boast of as
good water supply, as good police
protection, as good roads, as good
transportation, railroad, trolley and
waterway, and many other items too
numerous to mention.
Let's all pull together Boost Bev-
erly Make Beverly place for peo-
pie to boast of and in doing this you
can make it a BIGGER, BETTER
BEVERLY.

CUNNING SEASON STILL HERE.
OPENED TUESDAY FOR DOGS

Officer Ezra Budd Stevenson, had
the time of his life on Tuesday, when
he journeyed forth armed ito the
teeth" in quest of female dog,
which he had orders to shoot ON
sight. Someone notified the canine
that "Budd'' was coming, which caus-
ed the officer to comb the town with
double barrel shotgun on his arm
trying to find the animal.
After two hour search, he was
rewarded by finding the fugitive in
the yard of Thomas w. Holland, but
the dog regiment had been sum-
moned and instead of finding one dog
he found not less than thirty.
This unexpected gathering confus-
ed the gunner and while trying to
pick out his victim, someone said
"blaze into the bunch" He did, both
barrels and hit every one but the one
he was to supposed to. Then he was
led merry chase around the streets
by his canine victim, every time he
would take aim, the dog would duck
and after wasting box of shells he
finally made a hit, and buried his
runner up" with all dog ceremony.
Then "Budd' had to look after his
wounded victims and it has been
said that there were four other dogs
that had to be shot. Many dog own
pening and as dogs are to be taxed
ers are up in arms about this hap
it is rumored that the matter will be
brought up before the Police Com
mittee.
