CHICAGO UNIONS

POLITICS ROTTEN
Len Small F a lie d to
Deliver G. 0. P.

Indignation was expressed by some
Chicago Federation Of Labor delegates
at their meeting yesterday when it re-
ported that the Soderstrom anti-labor
injunction bill was defeated in Spring
field. One delegate said: 1--WE just
got what was coming to us for sup.
porting Len Small and the repub.
licans. We depend too much on lob
bying," he said, Lobbying, we see,
does not do us any good" This was
echoed by most of those present.
Altho Len Small promised the labor
leaders who supported him that the
republicans would vote for the Sober
strom bill, only % republicans voted
for the bill, in spite Of the promise Of
the G. o. P. in its state platform.
The bill will be brought before the
house again in the form of a resolu-
tion.
There is bill before the senate at
present, the Webster bill which is a
sort of substitute injunction bill which
limits injunctions. The bill Is really
against labor, for it allows only one
picket in case of strike. The report
er for the legislative committee stated
that the labor lobby as he understood,
had met and decided to support the
Webster bill. Secretary Nockels made
a motion that the report of the COM
mittee be accepted but that the COM
mittee be informed that the Chicago
federation is against the Webster bill
because it allows only one picket. It
was carried unanimously.
This Webster bill is up for the third
reading and has been favorably acted
upon twice in the senate but this is
the first reference made to it by the
federation officials.
The debate on the three injunc-
ton bills, which many Of the dele
gates had trouble in distinguishing
from each other, brought out the fact
that Len Small had slipped the Chi
cago and Illinois declarations Of La
Dor lemon when he secured their
support for reelection last year.
Small swept in on the labor votes, and
in return the state platform Of the
republicans went on record as against
the use Of the injunction in labor dis
putes, the pet issue Of the federation
officials.

Enthusiastic May
Celebration and
Russ Farewell Held

An enthusiastic May day celebra-
ton and farewell party for the fifth
group of the agricultural commune
Red Ray was held Saturday night at
the Workers Home, 1902 w. Division
st. A short talk was made by Com
rade N. Andreychik, secretary of the
commune. Another speaker explained
the significance of May Day and the
work OF the American communes in
Soviet Russia. About ten o'clock,
when the comrades we're ready to
leave for the station, they all lined
up on the stage to say goodbye to
the Chicago comrades. The enthu.
siasm was so great that the audience
stood up and Joined in the singing
of the International.
Some of the comrades who left for
Soviet Russia made brief talks calling
upon the non-party workers TO take
their places in the Workers Party OF
America, to help the workers Of the
world to free the earth form capital
ism.
After the comrades left for the sta
ton with a group OF their closest
friends the program continued and
dancing followed until midnight.
About ten dollars worth of litera-
ture was sold at the affair. which was
held under the auspices Of the Rus
sian branch Of the Workers Party and
the Red Ray Commune.

Bulgar White Terror

$4,000 troops on the frontier, the
great imperialist powers compelled
the Bulgarian government to turn the
blame falsely upon the Communists
and begin an intensive campaign of
assassination of radical workers and
peasants.
The ministers Of the United States,
England, France and Italy were sue,
cessful in this conspiracy as Bulgaria
fears the more powerful army of Jugo-
Slavia and could not hope to wage
war without the aid of allied money
power. Moreover, the Zankov govern
ment has seized and held power by
indiscriminate slaughter of Bulgarian
workers and peasants, and could con,
veniently fall in with the program
calling for more assassinations, which
1t hopes will bolster its power.
The Farce Of Court Martial.

sitting is a farce. The sexton Zagor-
sky has been promised immunity if
he would change his confession to i'm
plicate Communist instead of Jugo.

But even the indictment admita
that the bomb was not placed, as frst
charged, by the radical leader Mn
koff, who was shot to death by the
white guards. 1t was brought into the
cathedral by an engineer named Abad-
JEFF, who is not even charged with
being Communist.

Of workers all over the world today.
That one common bond that binds us
manifests itself in the spirit of May
Day.
French Reds Make Gains.
ION May Day we should count our
gains, as well as take stock in our
losses. While we have had losses we
must not forget we also have made
great gains. The English trade unions
re making friendship with the Rus
rade unions. In France we have also
made big gains. The Communist Par
ty is now stronger than ever since its
reorganization into shop nuclei. And
the greatest gain chat we have made
is expressed in zinoviev's statement to
the delegates which moved them to
their feet with great cheering.
'Zinoviev said the Russian probe
tartan government has achieved what
no capitalist country has achieved
The standard Of living has been raised
not only TO pre-war level, but beyond
pre-war level. In every other country
It is still below the pre-war level.
When the workers Of other countries
see the gains made by the Russian
workers government. there is real
hope for Soviet governments turnout
the world and for the establishment
OF the United States OF Soviet Amer
ica."
Pullman Workers Enthusiastic.
In Pullman the most enthusiastic
May Day meeting in years was held.
Stancik's Hall was crowded, and ex-
ira chairs had 10 be secured. The
meetings was featured by the showing
OF moving picture slides accompanied
by speech by William +. Kruse.
The slides showed some of the strug-
giles OF the American workers against
their employers. Great applause was
given Vladimir Lenin and the other
leaders OF the Russian revolution as
their pictures flashed on the screen.

DISTRIBUTION
STARTS today

Again the DAILY WORKER Is 20
be shown as a most effective means
for the promltion Of Communism in
this country. Hundreds Of thousands
Of workers In all the principal cities
and In many small towns thruout the
country will be going door-to-door on
q nationwide free sample distribution
Of the DAILY WORKER In the week
OF May to 10.
This new innovation OF a DAILY
WORKER week is another move Of
our party to reach the workers in
their homes and to supplement the
work already done Of reaching them
in the shop and trade union.
A Ready Response.
The plan, in accordance with the
instructions Of the executive commit
tee of the Workers (Communist) Par
ty, has met with a ready response.
Hardly a unit Of the party has failed
to rush in their order for sample
copies to come daily for one week
and many locals have Joined this cam
paign despite the fact that they have
already engaged in this kind of work
for weeks previous. Orders already
on hand will total over a hundred
thousand copy distribution.
Expect Many Subscriptions.
The plan is a simple one. Squads
of workers will cover systematically
the same homes for one week. At the
end of that time the same squads
will visit the homes to secure sub
scriptions. The weeks acquaintance
with the DAILY WORKER is sure to
bring immediate results in subscrip-
lions secured besides the obvious ad-
vertising and propaganda advantages.
In addition to DAILY WORKER sub
scriptions here are also membership
prospects for our party and real train
ing for the participants in direct and
personal Communist propaganda work.
Many Bundles Ordered.
The DAILY WORKER week was
born of the success already achieved
by some locals in this kind of work.
Chicago, Milwaukee, Detroit and other
cities have ordered enormous bundles
for the purpose. In this week of May
4 o10 hardly a single local, no mat
ter how small, will be without its
daily bundle with which ito paint the
town red"
Other cities are already planning
additional weeks of distribution to Sc
cure subs in the Second Annual Sub
Campaign. New York is planning a
giant distribution for the end of May,
while other cities are arranging to fol-
low the week door-to-door distribu-
ton with factory campaigns.
To Be Repeated.
The most gratifying response Of our
party and sympathetic workers to the
DAILY WORKER week of May to
10 has forced the laying of plans for
further work of this kind to be held
a few times year in which the whole
strength of the party will be mobil-
lied.
