The Irak Question.

ITTE remember how the league Of
w nations decided to take the
Mosul oil fields from Turkey and give
them to England. The question be-
fore the people in Irak was to go
either with England against Turkey
or with Turkey against British i'm
perialism. The exploiters Of the peo-
pie, the pashas and the begs, were
for submission to British rule. But
the masses Of the people opposed this.
There were stormy demonstrations in
Kirkuk, Mosul and other places
against the British. They could be
suppressed only by force. (But of
course the news of this was silenced
by the British press.) There is also
a parliament, so-called, in Irak. 1t con-
sidered the question in closed session.
The opponents were arrested and the
gathering before the parliament was
dispersed. Only then could the pashas
ratify the treaty" But the national
revolutionary movement is going on.

Museum of Revolution

The administration of the
Revolution Museum of the So
Uiet Union has sent the fOIIOao-
ing communication to the dele
gates of the session of the en-
tGrged eTecWtiUe committee of
the Communist International.
DEAR Comrades:
- The Revolution Museum of the
Soviet Union, which is a center where
are collected objects for exhibition of
the history of the revolutionary move
ments, win in the near future begin
to organize a Comintern department
and applies to you with the following
quest:
AS it is impossible in the Soviet
Union to collect documents on the his
tory of the parties Of other countries,
an illustration of the work and the his
tory of the foreign parties will only
be possible if you come to the assist
ance Of the Revolution Museum by
placing at its disposal all the neces-
sary material, as, for example, books,
newspapers, factory newspapers, re-
ports, leaflets, appeals, posters,
badges, flags, photographs, etc.
The Revolution Museum is visited
every month by $4,000 workers and it
is necessary to render them ac-
quainted with the Communist move
ment of all countries of the world.
We request you to distribute this
appeal among the comrades and to
publish II in the party press.
All material is to be sent either to
the Revolution Museum OF the Soviet
Union, Moscow, Twerskaja 50 or to
the agitprop department of the en-
larged committee Of the Communist
International.
Director of the Revolution Mu-
scum: Mickevicz, leader of the Co

The Jewish workers in the unions
know now the reactionary role of the
Forward. The Forward is branded in
their eyes as a counter-revolutionary
organ which exists only because of
the comfortable livelihood it provides
its associates, strategically placed

The Forward lost most of it power
in the Jewish labor movement. The

and the largest and most powerful
locals are led by comrades that be-
lieve in the class struggle, that defend
the interests of the rank and file and
have confidence in the international
solidarity of the workers all over the
world. In the Workmen's Circle the
Communist elements are the most
lively, most energetic, and are leading
the fight for recognition of the true
principles of international class strug-
gle.
The Freiheit itself is the expression
and the reflection of all these activi-
ties and struggles and ideals in the
Jewish labor movement.

BY Morris RackaII.

lk1E JEWISH WOrkerS VINO migrated
4 to the United States in recent
times were class conscious and social,
istically inclined. They built institu-
tons and organized into unions and
developed newspapers and put their
confidence and their ideals into these
institutions. They came from coun-
tries of the old Russian empires,
where the labor movement and the
socialist organizations spread all over
the towns and cities of the Jewish
ghetto The brought their class con
seriousness here, they fought in strikes
and in demonstrations, they organized
in the economic and political field.
But the organizations and institu-
tons the Jewish workers built be-
came financially solid and economi-
cally independent, and they developed
into reactionary instruments of class
collaboration. At the time of the
world war, when the Jewish workers
we're strongly anti-militaristic, when
the. feeling against Imperialism grew
from day to day, the Jewish Daily
Forward. then the only Jewish social
list paper in this country, betrayed
the masses and became pro-war. while
the official heads of the large Jewish
unions. such as the International La
dies Garment Workers, the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers and the Fur
riers, united with the capitalist class
in the capitalist propaganda of pro-
war sentiment.
Then came the Russian revolution.
The break of class solidarity that
took place in the hard and reaction
airy years of war became more vivid.
The contradiction was expressed on
the one hand in the relation of the
Jewish workers towards the social
revolution of the Russian workers and
peasants, and on the other hand by
the attitude of the official leaders and
publications of the Jewish labor move
ment.
At the beginning of the Russian
revolution the leaders of the Jewish
labor movement in the United States
and its publications could not do 9TH
erwise than maintain an attitude of
friendliness toward the revolutionary
workers and peasants republic. Their
friendship" was only in order that
they could keep their hold ON the
Jewish workers. But among the Jew
ish workers of the United States
many became conscious of the fact
that the tactics of class collaboration
and class peace which the social DEM
ocratic leaders declared in the years
of war and in the beginning of the
revolutionary wave over the entire
world was treason and betrayal of
the class struggle. The Jewish work
ers began to look toward the tactics
of the Communist Party of Russia and
the program of the Third Interna-
tional as the only possible and neces-
sary tactics and program for the work
ers all over the world. Then the Jew
ish Daily Forward and the official
leaders of the Jewish labor movement
revealed their real nature. They not
only openly opposed the Communist
International but they became enc
mics Of the Union of Socialist Soviet
Republics and wrote and spoke the

same as the capitalistic press and
counter revolutionary speakers did
The more class-consciOus Jewish
workers came to the Workers (COm-
munist) Party, forming the Jewish
section of the Workers Party. They
also very logically founded daily
newspaper, the Jewish Daily Freiheit,
as their organ Of struggle in the field
Of the Jewish labor movement.
It is hard to understand the strug
gle and also the accomplishment of
the Jewish Daily Freiheit, unless we
picture to ourselves the organized
field of the Jewish labor movement.
Here the machine of the venal bu-
reaucracy became probably as strong
as anywhere else in opposition not
only to Communism, but to any new
element that challenged it's rule and
control. For these bureaucrats it was
not merely matter of principles and
Of ideas and ideals. To people like
Abraham Cahan, editor of the Jewish
Daily Forward, to Schlesinger or Sig
man, the successive presidents of the
International Ladies' Garment Work
ers; to Hillman or Vladeck, it was
more a question of personal position
and power. In the earlier stages there
was certain period when rivalries
between groups of bureaucrats in the
needle trades caused the Hillman
group of leaders of the Amalgamated
Clothing Workers to make a gesture
Of support of the left wing, in the
effort to utilize the vitality of the
left wing for its own group struggle
for wider power But that period
passed. There is now no more bitter
or ruthless enemy of the workers in
the needle trades than HiIlman him
self. To fight with people like Cahan,
Sigman, Hillman or Vladeck is like
fighting with the mythical devil come
into reality. You could never know
what their answer would be and in
what way their tactics would be ex-
pressed, because to them every strug-
gle was viewed as a personal struggle
and in personal fights anything is
permissible.
When the Freiheit was organized its
financial resources were not only linn
tied but somewhat of an impossible
nature. 1t may be told that the first
manager of the Jewish Daily Frei-
heit had something like $S5 dollars to
start the publication of the daily.
Even the most intimate friends could
not conceive that the life Of the daily
would be very long. But who thought
of hesitating for lack Of financial re-
sources? We had a fight on hand
We had to take the workers away
from the influence of the yellow,
treacherous Forward. We had to
start a struggle to get rid of the
cliques in the International Ladies'
Garment Workers that we're running
the union. We had to challenge the
rule of the Forward element which
was fighting the class-conscious work
ers in the Workmen's Circle. We had
to answer to all lies spread against
the Soviet Republic.
And now, four years later, when we
look at our successes, we can have an
idea of what the Freiheit meant and

PROPOSALS MADE
FOR TAX REFORMS
Uniform Real Estate Laws
Taken Un in Four Far
Western States.

A constitutional amendment that
would permit the classification of
property for purposes of taxation is
urged for the States of Washington,
Oregon. Idaho and Montana in resolu.
lions which have just been adopted
by the Pacific Northwest Real Estate
Association at its annual convention
held in LaGrande, Greg.
The Legislature of each State named
is urged by the association to submit
such a constitutional amendment as
the first step in a more equitable
spread of the tax load by widening
the tax base. The present Anticipated
systems. which came into use when
intangible property of all kinds was
not considerable item of the national
wealth, puts the tax burden very
largely on real property, the associa-
ton points out.
Owing to the existing diversity i'm

States the association recommended to
the Legislatures of the four States
which it covers the passage OF uni
form mortgage foreclosure laws and
of uniform laws pertaining to the re-
demption of such foreclosed property
and of property sold for delinquent
taxes and assessments. 1t Endorsed
