Help the Irish Famine Victims

The article by Comrade Robert Stewart, secre-
tary of the Irish section of the Workers Interna-
tional Relief which appears in another column
should convince the most skeptcal that the need
for help to the famine situation in Ireland is
than serious and that it is the duty of the class
conscious workers of the United States to do some
thing, and that Immediately, in order to save
thousands of working class lives that are threat
ened by one of the greatest disasters that ever
visited a country referred to by August Bebel as
the 'classic land of oppression" s-ea
The DAILY WORKER has kept the famine
situation in Ireland before it's readers since news

DaweS Plan for France

We have been saying that Dawes plan for
France was in preparation and the latest news con
firms this. Under-secretary Winston of the gov
eminent debt funding commission has sailed for
France, and de Monte, the new finance minister,
has already proposed that the railroads and the
telegraph and telephone service, which in France
is part of the postOfce department, become private
concerns.
Taxes also are to be increased on many staple
commodities if the de Monte plan is accepted.
These two measures are characteristic of the
Dawes plan and it matters little by what name the
scheme is called in France.
The pressure by the House of Morgan is APP
piled relentlessy. The French ruling class may
complain, but they are learning the DID, old proverb
to the effect that he who pays the piper calls the
tune.
The French capitalist class are now or soon will
be, vassals of American fnancecapital. They in
turn have their own sphere of influence in Poland
and Roumania, but the circle in which they can
operate becomes narrower. French foreign policy
will now become the foreign policy of the House
of Morgan. The job of the French rulers now is
to pacate the Masses to prevent revolt against the
rulers-the American plunderbund.
1t is always harder to rule for overload than
to rule in ones right and for this reason the
extension of American imperialist hegemOny over
France creates and great possibilities for the
French Communist Party. ro

The Thompson Case

Constitutions and bylaws precedents and de-
esions, mean nothing to the labor takers of the
Harrington type when it is a question of crushing
the left wing to prevent its interference with the
plans of the oficialdOm which in the United Mine
Workers include scheme worked in conjunction
with the coal owners to drive 100000 miners out
of the industry.
The attempted BUSTING of Freeman Thompson,
president of Sub-District of District IL, by Far
ringtOn, cannot be justified by any law of or
precedent established in the union. On the con
trary, decisions on similar cases uphold Thompson
and not Harrington.
Two decisions by Harrington and one by Wright,
executive board member made on March u, 1929,
April q, 1923, and April 20, 1929 are specific in
stating that the district office is without power to
decide controversies arising out of sub-district
elections. Yet Harrington rules that Thompson is
not entitled to hold Office
Accustomed to official corruption for years the
miners have become cynical, but this last instance
is little too raw Even the local to which Walker,
the Harrington choice for Thompson's office, be-
longs has unanimously repudiated this action.
The Thompson case is one on which the member
ship will fight. 1t is easily seen that behind
Harrington the coal operators who have not
been able to bend Thompson to their will that the
question is really of the life of the union in
Subdistrict A.
We do not believe that the rank and file of the
miners in this sub-district, the most militant in
Illinois, going to let Harrington or anyone else
wreck their organization.
The Thompson fight is fight of the whole left
wing.
