Coal Owners Laekey.
WHEN the coal owners refer to the
w poor results of the industry in
1925 as regards dividend-paying ca
pacity, they omit any consideration of
the profits earned over a number Of
years. They say nothing of the ex-
tent of over-capitalization by the issue
Of bonus shares or of the payment of
royalties. More important still, they
say nothing Of the profit Of the coal
industry as a whole, Of which coal
getting forms only one part, and
part which cannot rightly be consid-
cred in isolation. The official profit
returns take no account of the other
processes from which the owners de-
rive substantial profits. The position
is that the profits OF coal getting may
be deliberately kept at low figure in
order to enhance the profits of coal
using concerns. AS put by my col

Industry Can Pay Living Wage.
LNVEN granting, therefore, the gen
~ eral dislocation and depression Of
capitalist industry as a whole, there
is no reason to believe that the coal
industry is unable to pay living wage
to its workers. At present the indus
try is suffering more from the tire
mendous internal inefliciency, wasteful
and unscientific method of working
and costly and inefficient methods, OF
distribution, than from the decline in
the purchase of British coal by foreign
users.

the unions around their trades coun-
ellis, and the general council to stand
by the miners, we shall not have 100
per cent unionism, in our time, let
alone socialism. la
The /. L. P. conference protested
against the infringement of civil liber-
ties. Unless ablepbodied men and
women trade unionists are enrolled
for service in defence OF meetings, on
communications, and so on, in the
event of general strike, the o. M. S.
and the B. F.'s will see to it that we
have, not socialism, but fascism in
our time.
Therefore it is to be hoped that
the resolutions passed at Whitley Bay
will speedily resolve themselves into
practical leads to the /. L. p, taking
the bitter capitalist attacks a little
more into account than was the case
at the conference. After the resolu-
tons, in particular we can see no
earthly reason why the /. L. p. leaders
should continue to refuse to cooperate
with the Communist Party in bringing
the four principles its conference en-
dorsed so heartily down from the
realms OF theory into those of ,prac-
tice.
When labor is girding up its loins
to beat off the biggest capitalist of
fensive in its history. refusal to put
ones shoulder to the common wheel
is inexcusable. And pedantic excuses
about how capitalism is to be over
thrown will not go far with workers

landowner and the large peasant:

If this list is continued further, the
owner of more than 500 hectars has
absolutely no yield and is apparently
paid something by the treasury.
In these circumstances it is easy
to understand that the masses of peas
ants are demanding more and more ur-
gently that their leaders should at last
show them way by which they can
maintain their existence and improve
their miserable situation. Under this
pressure Gandorfer and Kuebler, the
leaders of the Bayarian Peasant
League, had to make demands which
were opposed to the interests Of the
large peasants and large land owners
and also of the leaders of the right
within that organization.
MYTH the wine growers the ques-
w ton further comes into consid-
Grafton that they have. almost no mar
ket for their products, The high taxa
ton on wine and the commercial treat
les concluded with Spain and Italy in
the interest of industry make a sale
almost impossible. The market crisis
of the whole of Germany industry is
especially difficult in the wine-growing
industry because of the competition of
foreign wines. All the representations
of the wine growers are of no avail,
the existence of the winners is sacri-
feed to industry. The policy of the
Luther-Stresemann government is
running the peasantry more and more
to the benefit of the large capitalists.
In this matter the social-democrats are
their henchmen, as they proved when
they refrained from voting in the bal
lot with regard to the German-Spanish
commercial treaty. Only the Commu-
nists and individual bourgeois depu-
ties from the wine-growing districts
voted against it.
Steiger, the Prussian minister of ag-
riculture, visited the wine-growing dis
trict in the middle OF February. He
held conferences with the representa-
tives of the winners and made them

Uses.
THE movement in Berncastel shows
L that the peasant strata are awak-
ing. 1t indicate sthat the peasants in
their despair are seriously determined
to carry on fight for their existence,
and it would seen, that they have
learned a lesson from the defeat Of
their ancestors 400 years ago, for the
procession to Berneastel was an or
ganized one, its purpose was not only
to liberate their imprisoned brothers
but at the same time to give express
sion to the formation Of united front,
which is to include both peasants and
the proletariat of the, towns.
The political task, of the working
class at the present moment is to take
the side of the peasants in the perse-
cution of them, which will now inevita-
bly, set in and in their further struggle.
1t must do everything in its power
to forward this attempt to form a
united front between, the workers and
peasants who must rely on themselves
in the fight for a workers and peas
ants government.

Unrest Among the
Farmers i'm Germany
BY GRAF (serlIn)

THE wine-growers in various com
\ munities of the Berncastel district
(Rhine province) opposed the bailiffs
and the gendarmerie when they came
to fetch the last COW from the sheds
of some of the peasants. More gen
darmes were called out and a number
of peasants were arrested and taken
to the district prison in Berncastel.
The next day, more than a thousand
peasants from the villages of the dis
trict proceeded to the town and liber-
ated their class comrades.
A strong fermentation has been
noticeable for long time both among
the wine-growers and amongst the
working peasantry of Germany as a
whole. The pressure of the masses of
the peasants against the government
and the authorities and especially
against their leaders in the national
agrarian league and the christian
peasant organizations is increasing
from day to day.
THE Dawesation of Germany implies
for all groups of workers an I'M
precedented burden of taxation, which
the possessing class manages to shift
over. Whereas. in past years the mid
die classes and the small property
owners belonging to them were to a
certain extent considered, nowadays,
in these times of increased exploita-
ton, the burden is laid on them as
heavily as on the working class. 1t is
the task of the leaders of the bour-
geois peasant leagues to sweetep to
the peasants the taste Of being pau
perized in the patriotic sense of pre-
serving the state.
What these leaders cannot achieve
is completed by the bailiffs of the tax
offices, who have to carry out hun
dreds of distraints in one village.
There are villages in Bavaria, Wur-
temberg, Baden and the Rhine prov
ince where not single farm has es-
capped distraint.
THE unprecedented burden under
which the small peasants groan is
shown by the following example, Of
which we could quote hundreds: A
peasant in Rentschen owns about 4
hectars of land, 3 COWS, 1 horse, 8
sheep, pig, SOW and sucking pigs.
The taxation value of his land is $4,000
marks, of his buildings 10000, of his
working capital 1000, making alto
gether $4,000 marks. The following
are the charges on this property: tax
on land and trade license 1924
marks, debts on landed property 10,
inhabited house duty As, to the agri-
cultural chamber EOS, assessment of
taxation on the insurance of buildings
1916, tax on turnover 80, accident in
surance Al, income tax 1885, tithes
$3.50, district and communal taxes
1925, charges for monition and exc
cution 4.25, amounting altogether to
l4327 marks. He would thus have to
pay 1.21 marks per day in taxes. AS
this is absolutely out of the question,
it is not surprising that in June of last
year the bailiff journeyed thru the
community with 2SS warrants of dis
tress, in order to enforce payment.
THE following table from a district
l. on the land register shows how
excessively the small peasant is
fleeced as compared with the larger
