SUGAR LABEL LAW
CHANGE DECR|ED
Dr.. Harvey Wiley Declares
Act Passed by Congress
Would LegaIize Fraud.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July Legislation
that will make labels on sugars as
worthless as those on whisky are
being rushed through Congress, DR..
Harvey w. Wiley. pioneer pure food
law advocate. asserted yesterday.
DR.. Wiley's warning was given in
an address to consumers and pro-
ducers, associated. Facing more than
100 food experts the father of Federal
pure food laws" on his sgd birthday
declared that bills have passed the
House and Senate that will ''legaliZe
the mishranding and adulteration OF
the nations sugar supply"
The House bill" DR.. Wiley said,
provides that starch sugar can be
used as sugar, without informing the
consumer of that fact. l have no
quarrel with the use of starch sugar.
provided no fraud is committed there
in. My objection To tlIt- legislation,
which is likely 20 be concluded today,
is that it legalizeS fraud.
This is the twentieth anniversary
of the pure food law. On the
twentieth anniversary of it's natal day
the pure food law is likely to be re-
pealed III one of its most important
provisions. The whole population
will be the victims of this fraud.
1T is a curious study of the atti-
tude of the legislators to find that
aiority vote in the House and I'M
animous vote in the Senate has de-
graded the pure food law, violated the
code of ethics and made it possible
to deceive the whole body of the
American public legally and under ex-
press warrant of Congress-"
DIR. Wiley urged 're-education" Of
the people to "recreate" the sentiment
for honesty and fear of fraud that he
said, were their characteristics when
the pure food law was inaugurated.

Soldering Fights
Reorganization of
Goodyear Rubber Co.

AKRON, Nov. 9.-Frank A. Seiber-
ling, once president Of the Goodyear
Rubber Company, which he developed
from a $4,000 to 100000 900 con-
Germ, is now fighting for the control
Of the concern.
In 1921, the Goodyear Rubber com
pany was reorganized, 10000 shares
Of stock in the hands Of Dillon, Read
Co., Wall Street bankers, controlling
the company. 1t is alleged by Seibel-
ling that the reorganization was lille
gal and that it must be invalidated.
There are said to be two plans OF
settling the litigation "a for the
court to declare the reorganization ii
legal, or (2) for Soldering to accept
the reorganization plan recently pro-
posed, whereby s64,0O0,O0O worth Of
5H percent securities would be is
sued to take the place Of the s per
cent securities issued in the reor-
ganization. Combined with this lat
ter proposal is the termination of the
voting trusts controlling the common
and preferred stock ana the manage
ment stock, and return Of control to
common stockholders. This will be
a big fight and will be fought out To
the end.

Kamenev's Speech

Kamenev agreed with the possibility Of victory
of socialism in the U. s. s. r. but declared that
besides thru military Intervention this victory can
also be prevented or wrecked by an insuficiently
rapid progress in industrialization and by the
backwardness of the economic development of the
u. 5. s. r. as against capitalist states The funda-
mental difference between the party and the OPP
position consists in the different estimation of the
correlation of classes within the country The OPP
position points out the rapid growth of private
capitalistic accumulation in the towns and villages
and demands the extraction of these sums thru
a whole series of measures which would help to
speed up the industriazation.

Government Refuses
Insurance to Common
Law Wife of Veteran

Mrs. Corinne Hanna today lost her
fight to recover $4,000 war risk in
surance from the government for the
death of Major Mark Hanna overseas.
A jury before Judge Cliffe in Chica-
go federal court returned a verdict in
favor of Major Hanna's father,
Thomas NJ. Hanna OF Ruthven, la.
The verdict contained two findings
of fact.
1. That Mrs. Halle Schroeder OF
San Antonio, Tex, is Major Hanna's
lawful widow and that Mrs. Corinne
Hanna was therefore never legally his
wife.
2. That the governments charges
linking the name Of Mrs. Hanna with
that of "Joe" Wagner. reputed motor
ious Kansas City gangster, are un-
founded.
Mrs. Hanna, who claimed TO be the
widow OF the late officer, collected
$4,000 OF an $4,000 policy before the
government stepped in and asserted
she had no right to the money be-
cause fher personal right.
Mr.. Hanna Is to receive $1,552 back
insurance and $3.50 a month.
Because Mrs. Schroeder later OBJ
tanned a divorce, she Is not entitled Il

found, should go TO the elder Hanna

Wage theological Struggle.

Stain drew clear picture of the difference be-
tween the socialist method Of industrialization of
the U. S. s. R., which is pursued by the party,
and the methods proposed by the opposition, which
are not socialist but capitalist methods, because
they proceed on the basis of opposition of indus
trial toward rural economy.
The thesis of the Central Committee on the OPP
position do not aim at the exclusion of the lead
ers of the opposition from the party as Trotsky
declared in the last plenum of the Central Com
mittee and the Central Control Committee, but
rather aim at an theological struggle which is alb
solutely necessary in the interests of full party

Anti communists Are
Real Destroyers of the
Fighting Spirit of Labor
BY J. LOUIS ENoDAHL.

would-be destroyers of the Farmer
Labor movement. Take look at
Van Lear, Townley, Gilbert Quigley
and others of their ilk They have
have completely deserted the farm
er-labor cause and sold out, body
and soul, to the enemy. When they
were attacking the Communists.
they were doing loyal service to the
capitalist oppressors Of the city and
land workers. The same holds for
the whole strata of the petty trade
union ofFicialdom in Minnesota, that
jumped to obey the orders of the
late Sam Gompers to drive the Com
munists out of the trade unions in
that state.
1t was inevitable in Minnesota, as
elsewhere, that the war waged
against the Communists should have
a paralyzing influence upon the
Farmer-Labor Party as we'll as the
trade union movement. When the
so-called leaders" spend more time
fighting the Communists, the milit-
ant vanguard of the labor move
ment, than they do in organizing
and developing the struggle against
the exploiters' interests, then it is
inevitable that the aggressive spirit
of the rank and file workers should
be seriously dulled. This is exactly
what has happened.
The workers and farmers must be
won for a spirited forward march
against their class foes. This will
not be brought about thru a con-
tinued attack on the Communists
and winking at the continued sur
render of those launching these at
tacks, to the ranks of the. capitalist
parties.
Hendrix Shipsted, the farmer
labor senator, exposed himself as an
enemy Of labor's cause when he did
not enter actively into the recent
farmer.labor campaign on behalf of
the whole farmer-labor ticket. In
stead he sulked. Reports say he
addressed but one campaign meet
ing.
He became a burden and an OBJ
stacle to the movement when he re-
fused to make it known clearly and
decisively that he would continue
to fight as farmer-laborite in 1928,
when his present term expires, in
stead of desert to the republican
camp, as is rumored. Even now
Shipsted does not deny that he will
give his support to the republican
bosses In congress during the two
remaining years of his senate term.
Thus Shipsted acts in the role of
destructionists like Van Lear, Town
ley, Gilbert, Quigley and the others
who have gone before him.
The greatest safeguard insuring
the growth Of the Minnesota Farm
er-Labor Party, and of the labor
party movement generally, is the
admission of Communists to full
rights in the Farmer-Labor Party,
and the affiliation of the Workers
(Communist) Party as an integral
part of the Farmer-Labor Party.
1t is the duty of the rank and file
OF labor in Minnesota to secure this
action as part of the struggle to
build the national labor party move
ment thruout the land, uniting all la
Dor for an aggressive fight against
capitalism and It's lapdogs, the re-
publican and democratic parties.

Trotsky's Speech

Trotsky declared that the opposition considers
the tempo of industrialization as insufficient. He
maintained that different tax policy from the
one pursued by the party toward the peasantry is
necessary, which is undergoing rapid differentia-
ton. He insisted that the raising of wages must
precede the raising of the productivity of labor.
On the question of the sterilization of capital the
opposition disagrees with what it alleges to be an
Tnderestimation by the party, and therefore de-
hands the dissolution of the Anglo Russian com
nittee not desiring to solidarize itself with Purcell
because sterilization hinges upon the Purcells and
not on the Baldwins and Thomases.
