Large Rail Order

Atlanta, Ga.-Announcement is
made by the Southern Railway Sys-
tenn that contracts have just been
awarded for the purchase of $4,000
tons of new steel rail for delivery
during the latter part of the year.
This is in addition to 46,200 tons or
dered for delivery during the first
half of 1926 and makes total of
81, 400 tons of new rail for the year.
The largest share of the ne wor-

Company, and the steel will be fabri-
Gated at its Ensley, Alabama, plant;
4,6OO tons were ordered from the

"Give me relief! Stop this agony!"-
that's all you can think of when you're

And you can get relief quickly and
completely-with very simple home

Liniment, and after using it one day,
/ was able to walk around the house.
After three days / was able to 60 to

The reason that Sloan's Liniment
gives such remarkable relief is that it
gets right at the cause of the pain. 1t

the place where the pain is, and clears
out the germs that are causing it.
Right away you feel relief. The

who, in this period Of temporary stab
ilization of capitalism, expose their
true character.
The past year in the Comintern has
been struggle against right devia-
lions as we'll as left sectarianism (op-
portunism concealed beneath left slo-
gans) within the parties Of the Comm
tern. In Germany, the second largest
party of the Comintern, has, with the
Intervention and direction of the CO.
mintern, been placed on the path to
victory. The left sectarianism that
was creating chasm between the
Communist Party and the masses has
been overcome and thru correct appli-
cation of Bolshevik tactics the masses
are swinging toward us.
In other countries similar problems
have been solved. In the United
States our party has been able to
eliminate the incubus of Loreism and
at the same time throw off the de-
vitalizing federation form of organiza-
ton inherited from the past, reorgan-
ize the party on the basis of shop
nuclei and clear the ground for effect
i've mass work.
MTHILE the influence Of the Comm
W tern is felt in every advanced cap
italist country because of it's direc-
ton of the Communist Parties, it has
also been able to strike sledge-ham-
mer blows against imperialism in the
colonial and semi-colonial countries.
By combining the nationalist liberia
ton struggles in the colonies with
the proletarian struggles in the i'm
perialist nations it achieves that dial
ectic combination of oppressed that
widens and deepens the tide of revo-
luton that must soon engulf the
master class of the world.
By directing the nationalist move
ments into ever more aggressive anti
imperialist struggles the Comintern
thereby shakes the foundation of cap
italist economy of today by removing
the source of income that enables the
bankers and industrialists of the
home country to pacify the upper
strata of the proletariat with brides
realized from the super-profits of the
colonies, thereby destroying the basis
of opportunism within the home coun-
tries and forcing the treacherous lead
|ers openly to align themselves with
the camp of the enemy and bringing
their former fellows closer to us.

The 9TH Anniversary Of the Communist international

lTJAVING overcome the external
IL and internal dangers arising out
of the temporary sterilization of cap
italism, new tasks are forcibly thrown
upon the stage of history. There are
indications on every hand that the
period of temporary sterilization is
to be short-lived. The titanic conflict
between the imperialist giants, the
United States and Great Britain have
their reverberations in every part OF
the world.
Britain's control Of the council of
the league of nations: the haste Of
the United States government to enter
the world court to utilize that political
weapon more effectively 20 defend and
extend the economic power Of Wall
Street; the various conflicts between
nations and groups of nations in the
old world-in a word all the irrecon-
cilable conflicts within capitalism It,
self-point unerringly to the fact that
these conflicts cannot much longer be
settled within the confines of diplo-
matte intrigue and must soon burst
forth into another world war.
Before the peans of peace sung to
! Locarno have died down that pact is
exposed as a futile thing. Italy, ore
of the .guarantors of the demilitarized
Rhineland zone, makes a mockery Of
Locarno by rafting the sword at Ger
many and Austria. Within the league
of nations Britain and France des-
perately strive against each other
thru advocating increases of the
number Of permanent seats on the
council, to dominate that institution.
The Communist International, In
the eighth year of it's existence, will,
as in the past, be able to take advan-
tage of the antagonisms existing be-
teween the imperialist powers and
mobilize the proletariat for the deci-
sive struggle against capitalism. No
one can estimate with accuracy the
exact date of the outbreak of the next
world conflagration, but every revolu-
zionist knows it is coming in the not
distant future.
In that conflict the Communist In
ternational, as the general staff of the
proletarian revolution will be able to
achieve thruout the whole world the
magnificent victory that was achieved
in 1917 by those who seven years ago
were the founders of our Interna-
tiohal.
