Conference

THE DAILY WORKER extends
| rfrateranI greetings to the second
annual conference of the Interna-
ttlonaI Labor Defense which opens
its sessions tomorrow in Ashland
Auditorium.
Within the short period Of ono
year, this non-partisan, all-lnclusiVe
working class defense organization
has accomplished much despite the
handleaps il encountered, the most
serious of which was the mutual
jealousy existing between various
sections of the labor movement and
the several defense organizations
that existed to defend their own
particular victims of class injus-
tice.
II the international Labor Defense
had accomplished nothing else be-
sides overcoming this competitive
hostility between different defense
groups il would have justified its ex-
istence. But II has more construe-
tive accomplishments to its credit.
It has proven by action that Il Is
the defender of all working class
victims of the class struggle regard
less of what section of the labor
movement they owe their first alleg-
lance to. This Is the necessary pre-
condition to the accomplishment OF
the !. [. D. mission.
Among the high lights In the MS
tory Of the /. L. D. was the national
campaign against the Hortny gov
eminent of Hungary to save Rskosi
and Weinberger from the eaIlows.
Horthy was compelled to call off his
hangmen, tho he succeeded in send
ing Rakosi to Jail for over eight
years and his comrades to long
terms of Imprisonment.
Then came the re-arrest of Rich
ard (BIackie) Ford and his trial.
The !. L. D. jumped in, rendered as
slstanee and organized a nation
wide campaign of publicity in be-
half Of the worker whose life was
threatened. Ford was member Of
the I. w. w. A jury acquitted Ford.
For months the 1. L. D. has moved
every ounce Of inflEnce to save Sac
CO and Vanzetti from the electric
chair In Massachusetts,. This fight
is still on. As these lines are writ
ten word comes over the wire that
Governor Fuller grants a reprieve to
a condemned murderer who con-
fessed that he committed the crime
for which the two italian workers
were convicted. The reprleVed muir
derer will testify under oath that
he committed the crime. Saeco and
VanzettI are philosophical anarch-
lists.
No worker In whose soul the d.
vine flame Of rebellion has been
lighted can fall TO give his support
to the international Labor Defense
which Is a shield of labor In the
United States and stretches out It's
hand to aid the prosecuted workers
In all lands.

WING ISSUES labor DAY CALL
xes.s,x Se~I
BY T. J. o'FLAHERTY

THAT followers of the meek and
4 lowly Nazarene" are no longer
meek nor lowly was again brought to
public attention when the newspapers
carried the report of an attempted
steal OF iewelry and bonds valued at
$4,000 from the home of Cardinal
Dougherty of Philadelphia. Dougher-
ty was one of the fat spiritual boys
prominent at the eucharistic congress.
His mission in life is to encourage
his sheep to allow themselves to be
shorn without murmur so that they
may wear golden wings in eternity.
The cardinal is one of the shearers
and as the thief learned he has sharp
pair Of shears.
THE Irish Times, organ Of the pro-
4 testant ascendency in that coun-
try is quite excited over the religious
struggle in Mexico. The Irish catho-
lies look on the Irish Times as an
organ of the devil. OF course the
wealthy catholics care very little
whether ones god is Luther OF the
holy faker in Rome, provided material
accounts can be squared. The Irish
Times has not much love for the cath
Ollie church but it hates the working
class movement more. Therefore on
this occasion it kisses the papal toe
as obseqiously as a K. of c. boOtlegger
and hops onto Gales with both feet
you won't get heaven when Com
4 munism comes in" pipes a reader
who thinks we are a little bit too
'narrow-minded" and bitter against
everybody who does not wear the
Communist badge. Well, who the devil
wants a heaven anyhow? If the time
should ever come that all the trouble
makers passed away life would be a
rather dreary purgatory. There is
little danger of that, Communism
win not come like thief in the night
and confront us with a ready-made
world the following morning. Things
don't change as rapidly as that.
OUR theory is that the reconstruc-
~ ton of society on a socialist basis
win be a gradual process, after the
working-class first take hold of the
governmental power, after they be-
come the ruling class, preparatory to
abolishing all classes This period
will not sprout many wings, and beds
Nof roses for the workingclass will be
+ conspicuous by the number of thorns
lin them. 1t will be period of strife
and struggle. We cannot conceive
of the capitalist class surrendering
their luxuries without a struggle.
Look at the society columns in the
papers If you want to know the rea-
son why. No! Heaven is a long way
off but if the road to it is beset with
dangers the scenery is splendid.

FAMOUS CLASS
War PRISONER
|. [. D. GUEST
Conference Opens Here
Sunday Morning

Charles Cline, one Of the famous
class war prisoners known as the Tex
as Martyrs, who was recently pardon
ed with Captain Jose RangeI and four
other Mexlcsns by Governor Miriam
Ferguson of Texas, arrived here yes
terday to attend the Second Annual
Conference of international Labor De,
Tense.
It is the first time he has been IN
Chicago since 1910 and he remarked
at the Office of International Labor De-
Tense that it felt good to be out after
IS years of Texas prison. II was IN
1913 that Cline, Rangel and the others
were sentenced to life sentences for
the murder of a deputy sheriff who
Cline, for one, never saw, and con-
corning whose death no proofs of any
kind were given by the prosecution.
But Rangel and Cline and their lit
tie band had been on the way to
Mexico to aid the revolution Of Ma
derO against the reactionary govern
ment of Diaz. What is more Cline
was member of the Industrial Work
ers of the World. Reactionary forces
whipped up public sentiment to fever
heat against the defendants and after
four trials, they were railroade6 g
prison.
Years Of Agitation.
The pardon of Governor Ferguson
follows years of agitation for the re-
lease Of the prisoners. From all
parts of the world, but principally
from the labor movement In this coun-
try and in Mexico came demands for
the release Of the Texas Martyrs.

WEISDORD GIVEN
farewell FETE
BY Mill HANDS
Charter of U. T. W. is
Delivered at Passaic
(speelaI to rhe Daily workerl

PAssAIc, N. j., Sept. 8. - Albert
Weisbord, organizer and leader for the
past seven months of the spIendIdIy
conducted strike Of the 10000 textile
workers of Passaic and vicinity, Off
eially rellnquished his leadership of
the big strike Thursday night when he
delivered his farewell address to a
mass meeting of strikers and SYM
pathizers held at Belmont Park.
Attic stepping out of the strike
situation, Weisbord will remain in Pas
sale to fight the mill baron's attempt
to railroad him to Jail for his services
to the workers. Since April II he has
been out on $4,000 bail in cases
arising out of the attempts of the mill
bosses and their Judicial tools to
punish him for his fight on behalf of
the striking textile workers.
Deliver Charter.
The charter of the United Textile
Workers granted to the strikers was
delivered by the Lauck Committee at
the mass meeting. Gustav Deak, a
striker from the Botany Mills and a
committee of nine other strikers
formally accepted the charter, which
was signed on Monday.
Thomas Mcmahon, president of the
U. T. W., will meei a delegation of
members of New Jersey labor organ
izations to arrange a parade and
speech-making program celebrating
the entry of the A F. of L. into the
situation. The parade will probably
take place Sept. II. The speakers will
include Mcmahon and possibly Presi-
dent William Green of the American
Federation of Labor.
Alfred Wagenknecht, strike relief
chairman, In a statement issued today,
warned organized labor that the Pas
sale strike was not yet over, as the
mill barons had so far refused to deal
with the United Textile Workers. He
declared the strike was a fight against
all bosses, as Rockefeller, Gary, Good
year, and all the other bosses, have
their eyes on Passaic and are lending
encouragement and aid to the textile
barons in their savage fight against
the workers right to organize into
real unions which would be able to
protect them from the starvation
wages and cruel wage cuts melted out
by the mills. He urged upon labor the
necessity of meeting the united front
of the bosses with a united front of
the workers.
Need More Relief.
The relief chairman stressed partic-
ularly the pitiful plight of the strikers
children, all Of whom are absolutely
dependent for greatly needed milk and
other nutritious food upon the soli-
darity of the working class whose sup
port has hitherto saved these tiny
tots from the starvation offensives Of
the mill bosses.
Strike relief should be rushed at
once to the General Relief Committee,
