Let American Labor Give
SIS, 900, 900 In Aid of the
Striking British Miners
BY J. LOUIS ENcpAHU.

ENVEN the capitalist press cannot
IL help but get blinded these days
with the sunlight of truth shining
brilliantly out of the Union Of So
Wet Republics. The result is that
it frequently publishes truthful news
Of actual conditions under Workers
Rule, which must do great deal to
counterfeit the fables that are also
and most often given space. Thus
it cannot help but go contrary to the
interests of the class for which it
speaks, in spite of itself.
An excellent illustration is the
publication by the Chicago Daily
News of an article telling of the
visit in the Soviet Union of Sher-
wood Eddy, member of the Interna-
tional Committee Of the Young
Mems Christian Association, in
which these statements are quoted
from a speech he made in Moscow:
Yours is a country (the Soviet
Union) where man no longer ex-
ploits man. am glad to see nation
which stands as challenge to the
rest of the nations ruled by swollen,
selfish capitalism. In its great dar-
ing ideal it is the only nation that
challenges the world"
Sherwood Eddy made his speech
at a reception given by the Soviet
Bureau of Cultural Relations to a
group of American writer's and col.
lege professors now visiting in the
Soviet Union, and all Of whom have
confessed themselves as being great
ly impressed with Workers Rule.
What Eddy and others are now
telling The Daily News, this organ
of the middle west bankers and in
dustrialists could have found out for
itself long time ago. But instead
it chose to give space to hosts Of
lies that it thought would bolster
the interests of it's own class.
1t is to be expected, therefore, that
the Daily News will be the first to
attack these writer's and professors
upon their return to this country
when they intend, according to their
own declarations, to play large
role in the negotiations for Amer.
lean recognition of the Soviet I'm
ion."
But Eddy of the Y. M. c. A., Pro-
lessor Jerome Davis of Yale Uni
versity, Professor Samuel Cahan of
Syracuse University, Prof. Charles
E. Merriam of the University of
Chicago, and others are typical of
but one class of visitors to the So
Wet Union.

LOWELL, Mass, Aug. IL. The

thru a certain woman of questionable
character and a second hand is maxi
ing extraordinary efforts to break the
strike. Several automobiles are al
ways in use visiting homes of girls
telling all kinds of lies and making
fake promises. They transport hand
full of scabs to and from work. The
agent attempted to import weavers
from Lawrence but without success.
The weavers refused to work as soon
as they were notified that there was
strike on.
The relief committee appeals to the
labor movement for aid. The strike
was begun without ar organization or
funds. The Lowell workers have no
savings. To date about 30 needy cases
have been cared for.

Bulgaria Considers
Jugo-Slav Ultimatun;
Roumania Backs Down

BERLIN, Aug IL. - The Bulgarian
government considers the Jugo-Slay
ultimatum demanding disarmament of
the comitadji as an infringement on
Bulgarian rights, and the cabinet is in
session preparing a reply to that eff
feet, say Sofia dispatches.
News from Vienna say that because
Roumania needs loan, Premier Ave
rescu is leaving for Rome to seek
Italian aid on this matter, after having
proposed such amendments to the
supposed Joint note of Jugo-Slavia and
Roumania to Bulgaria as to cause
Jugo-Slavia to reject it. The reason
for this, It is stated, is that Italy is
friendly to Bulgaria and Roumania
doesn't wish to offend Italy.
Roumania counts upon repelling
attacks on the frontier against the ir-
regular troops or comitadji of Bulga-
ria, with troops, but not making dip
lomatic representations about the mat
ter.

look, is also summering in Moscow.
Lansbury sends out his first hot shot
on the question of the Red Gold"
contributions of the Soviet workers
to the relief of the striking British
miners. He says:
1.-THE stock argument of the Tory
'Diehards' is that the money, IL col
lected, was compulsory tax, taken
by force from workers who them
selves needed the money, and were
too poor to subscribe any such sum.
Sir Austen Chamberlain and those
In our own ranks who agree with
them, Judge others by their own low
standards Of life and conduct l CAN
SEE THAT THE INDUSTRIAL
WORKERS OF RUSSIA ARE MOST
CERTAINLY INTERESTED IN
THE STRUGGLE OF THE MIN
ERS, AND WOULD GIVE THEM
THEIR LAST PENNY IN ORDER
TO HELP THEM WIN"
Lansbury cites numerous facts in
support of this declaration. Let the
officials of the American Federation
of Labor take note of what Lans-
bury has to say, and then consider
also the fact that, according to the
figures of the chief bookkeeper of
the Central Council Of Trade Unions
Of the Soviet Republic, a total of
$2,450,OOO was collected for the relief
Of the British miners during May,
June and the first 20 days of July.
American labor officials boast of
the high standard of living of the
American worker. They speak, of
course. almost exclusively of the
standards won by the skilled work
ers, mostly at the expense of the
unskilled workers.
The standard of living in the
United States, at the present time,
may be little higher than 1t is in
the Soviet Union, altho the former
is rapidly losing to the latter. Since
this is 80 the American Federation
of Labor, with the support of all its
international unions, ought to raise
at least 100000 for British min
ers' relief, even If a part of its army
Of business agents would be COM
PEELED to mortgage its limousines.
Every honest test applied to the
workers and peasants of the Soviet
Union, whether it has sought to
measure the success which they are
having in developing conditions in
ternally, or fulfilling their interna-
tional labor obligations, has resulted
in 100 per cent showing in their
favor. The presence in the United
States of British delegation seek
ing relief for the striking coal min
ers is putting the American labor
movement thru a crucial test. What
will the results show?

"You will recall the great British

these fanatics, these so-called catholic
unions, did? They repudiated the
movement and offered themselves as
strike-breakers while the miners were
dying of hunger and still continued to
strike.
THAT is the work the church has
done in favor Of the working man.
This not only shows lack of help on
the part Of the catholic church but
proves that the church is always
against the labor movement. This is
because they believe international la
