Assaults Of Labor.
Dear Comrades:
"The wears OF 1925-1926 have seen
the parties of the capitalist class out
do themselves in their attacks upon
labor In New York City during the
four.month strike of the 10000 FUR
riers more than 500 strikers were ar
rested by the Tammany Hall con
trolled industrial squad and police
force beaten and hailed to court and
subjected to heavy fines and imprlson-
ment by injunction judges Tor the
mere crime of doing picket duty. IN
functions against organized LABOR

II has become an indisputable fact
that workers are compelled to strug-

because of the interference OF the po-
lice and state machinery in favor OF
the employer.
New York Legislature.
THE New York state legislature
has this year turned down every piece
of vital legislation that could benefit
labor. Republicans and democrats
alike have voted against the workers
The CAPITALIST politicians have demon

The present administration has acted
openly in the interests OF the bank
ers; thru its policy at home it has
served the rich at the expense Of the
poor. Hundreds Of millions were
turned back to the multimillionaires
and big corporations thru the income
tax revision law, and the burden Of
taxation thrown heavier upon the
workers and farmers. The mainten.
ance OF the high protective tariff has
been for the benefit OF the big corpo.
rations and trusts, at the expense Of
the great mass OF workers and farm
ers. The Sherman antitrust law has
become a dead letter. The govern
ment and trustifed industry have be-
come one and the same.
