The Role Of the British Miners

were the first to face this general on
slaught upon the British working
class. Due to the great dependence Of
British industry upon coal, the print
tive methods Of coal production in USE.
and the artidcially maintained low
prices of coal within the country
(caused by the fact that the mine own
ers, who are also manufacturer, sell
coal to themselves very cheaply), the
mining industry was the first to feel
the full brunt of the cracking OF the
British empire. Then, again, to smash
the British trade unions, which was
the hope of the British bourgeoisie and
still Is, it concentrated upon the min
ers union, which is the largest, best
consolidated and most aggressively
and ably led in Britain. Upon the ex-
piration Of the governmental subsidy,
the bourgeoisie felt itself well enough
prepared to attack the very backbone
of the trade union movement-the
miners union-feeIing that the small
er, weaker and meeker unions could

the miners union. It is these circum-
stances that made the miners face this
salyo of the capitalist offensive against
the British working class. But the
working class was quick to sense the
meaning of this offensive. 1t knew in
stinctiyely that the process of wage
cutting concerned not only the miners,
but that it would embrace the entire
working class. This consciousness is
glaringly and irrefutably proven By
the fact that the rank and file com

Article II.
BY JACK BRADON.

THE present British crisis can be
justifiably termed a continuation
and form OF climax to the unbroken
chain Of political and industrial un-
rest since 1911. But it is in the higher
and more intense stages of this crisis,
1925, that the plan of rebuilding
her economy on the backs of her work
ers was formulated and the attempt
made to carry it out. Regular war
preparations were made against the
working class. While the bourgeoisie
was somewhat uncertain as to what
the reaction of the working class
would be when the miners were at
tackled, it played safe-it prepared its
forces. Directly under the control of
it's outstanding militarists, it created
a volunteer organization for the main
tenance of supplies. This organiza-
ton embraced some $4,000 persons.
Two hundred thousand vehicles were
registered and subsidized by the gov
eminent for instant use against the
workers. The cabinet was militarized
and it's members assigned on a war
status. The cabinet forces were fully
equipped, and were held in readiness
in their barracks so as to enable them
to take the field against the workers
on short notice. With all these pre-
parations the British bourgeoisie and
it's government were ready to attack
the workers, to destroy their trade
unions. and upon the backs Of beaten
and demoralized working class, Brit
ain was again to take her "rightful"
place in the sun and play second fiddle
to no power. S
It is not an accident that the miners

AIMEE ADMITS

her CLOTHING
But She Claims They
Were "Stolen"

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 5. - Aimee

mitted ownership of the beautiful
gowns, expensive lingerie and other
articles of apparel found in Kenneth
G. Ormiston's trunk, seized in New
York, it was claimed at the district
attorneys Office today.
Says Were "Stolen."
The claim made by the prosecution
was based on Mrs. McPherson's firm
refusal either to affirm or to deny
that the clothing in Omissions trunk
belonged to her and her declarations,
over the Angelus Temple radio, in
which she intimated that the contents
of the trunk had been stolen"
How Come?
what does she mean by 'stolen?' ="
demanded one of the prosecuting at
torneys. Does she mean to intimate
that the clothing in Omissions trunk
was stolen from her? Mrs. Mcpherson
has never denied that the clothing in
the trunk belonged to her. We inter-
pref this as an admission that the
clothing was hers. If it wasn't, why
doesn't she say so"
Both chief defense counsel, Gilbert,
and Mrs. Mcpherson herself abso-
lutely refues to discuss any phases of
the case today.
Seek Venue Change.
The trial of Mrs. Mcpherson may
be moved to another county it was
reported today, as it was considered
impossible to find IL persons here
who have not formed an opinion iu
the case.

Especial to The Daily w0rtsrl

MOSCOW. Oct. 5-(By Mail) The
International Propaganda Committees
Of the Revolutionary Transport Work
ers has addressed the following ap-
peal to the transport workers Of all
countries:
In consequence OF the refusal Of the
employers to raise the miserable
wages Of the lockers, a strike OF
lockers commenced in Hamburg on
Oct 1. The wages are too small for
workers family to exist on, even
miserably.
This strike Is also significant as an
action OF solidarity with the fghting
British miners who are now in the
sixth month Of their struggle. More
than 10000 tons OF coal were trans
ported daily thru the Hamburg docks.
The strike struck a blow at the Brit
ish mineowners, and strengthened the
resistance Of the British miners and
increased their chances Of victory.
The reformist leaders OF the Ger
man Transport Workers Union are
prepared to come to an agreement
with the German bourgeoisie against
the striking lockers The seamen
and transport workers OF all coun-
tries must remember that victory for
the Hamburg lockers IS a victory for
the seamen and lockers OF all coun
tries and that defeat for them is cor
respondingly a defeat for the seamen

Continuation of Injunetions.
The victory OF Tammany Hall in
New York state means the continue
ton of iniunctions, suppression Of
workers, denial of the rights of work
ers to strike and picket and similar
suppressive tactics on the part Of the
democratic henchmen.
The results of the vote also show
that, despite big protest and opposi-
ton sentiment, the socialist party
which has been the chief opposition
party-failed substantially to secure
CHS protest vote and strengthen its
position.
Socialists Aid Tammany.
The socialist party, by failing to
establish a united front of labor polit-
ical parties on the political field, has
aided Tammany Hall and helped to
keep the workers tied to capitalist
politics. Labor cannot advance in the
direction of working class tactics as
long as the Illusion Of "rewarding
friends and furnishing enemies" re-
mains. The socialist party, by failing
30 aid in uniting all those opposed to
capitalist politics, has contributed to
the maintaining of the Smith illusion
Need For Labor Party.
The results of the election indicate
again the necessity for labor to estab-
fish political party Of its own, in
dependent of the capitalist parties and,
by forging a labor party, to attack the
strongholds of the two-party system
IN which capitalism maintains absolute
domination while nominally transfer
ring power from one of its parties to
the other
In the coming two years labor will
receive ample proof, by the suppress
sive action OF Tammany Hall, of the
need OF breaking with the capitalist
parties and establishing a party of la
Dor. The Workers Party will CON
tinue its agitation for unity of labor
on the political field in labor party.
