The Washington times., 1927-10-20

A search conducted throughout
the early morning hours by her
husband and the police had today
revealed no clues that might lead
to knowledge of her whereabouts
and grave fear is felt for her safety.
Mrs. Forbush, bobbed- hair ma
iron OF 33 and mother of four chill
dren. ranging in age from one and
a haIf to seven years, recently suf-
fered nervous breakdown from
the care of the children and her ex-.
tensive church work and disap-
peared from her home for two days.
She was eventually found 200 miles
from home. She had parked her
car beside the road and hidden in a
clump of bushes.
Congregation Gave Trip
Following a short stay in hos
pital in Rochester, N. T., Mrs. For
bush returned to her, home and the
congregation of the church granted
her husband seven weeks leave
and appropriated the money for
trip to Florida. in order that she
might regain her health.
The couple left the children with
Mrs. Forbush's mother and left
home by automobile three days ago.
They arrived here yesterday. regis
tered at the Winston Hotel and
went for a sightseeing tour.
Later they went to view the per-
Torrance at Keith's Theater. At in
PERMISSION both went out. and the
Rev. Forbush was requested to wait
while his wife went into the women's
rest room. That is the last that has
been seen of her. Her husband re.
ported her disappearance at 1890
o'clock. after the theater had been
searched for her.
Third Attack
This is the third such attack that
Mrs. Forbush has suffered, the first
taking place while her husband was
serving as first lieutenant in the
145th Infantry in France.
Mrs. Forbush is very fair. She
has blonde bobbed hair, gray eyes
and weighs 100 pounds. There is
bandage on the top of her head, as
a result of a slight operation she un.
derwent short time ago.
She was dressed in light brown
hat. brown dress, light brown coat
with coon skin collar, light tan
hose and tan shoes. She is said to be
very pretty.

BIG N. Y. PARTY MEETING CONSIDERS
WAYS TO MEET RIGHT WING OFFENSIVE

The general membership meeting in
New York City held Wednesday night,
January s. at Manhattan Lyceum,
unanimously approved the report of
Comrade Weinstone for the District
Executive Committee, on the new Of
fensive against the left wing in the
trade unions.
Comrade Weinstone pointed out.
that the present offensive spreads
from the policy of the reactionary bu-
reaucracy Of company-unionizing the
trade unions and of the class-colla-
borationist policy of making the I'M
ions aides to production by the adop-
ton of speed-up systems, as in the B.
& o. plan, Hillman's piece work and
standards of production system, Wat
son-Parker bills and similar measures.
He pointed out that this offensive is
intended to destroy the rank and file
opposition to these policies, as ex-
pressed by the left wing leadership
in the Furriers, l. L. G. w. u, and
the opposition in the Miners Union,
where a reign Of terror against the
Communists has been conducted in
the past few years.
The drive is backed by the A. F. of
L. bureaucracy, which sees a menace
to it's leadership in the progressive
bloc formed in the Miners Union and
in the work of organizing the unor-
ganized conducted by the left wing in
the Passaic strike. Comrade Vein
stone said that a militant struggle
must be put up against this drive of
the reactionaries in support of the slo-
gans of the left wing for unity of the
trade unions, for characterization of
the unions, for organization of the I'M
organized, for amalgamation against
class collaboration, against company
unions, against terrorism, and gang
sterism-these being the chief slogans
summing up the present struggle.
At this time more than ever, he de-
clared, we must carry out the policies
adopted by the plenum of the G. E. c.
of extending the influence among the
American workers and more deeply
intrenching the influence of the left
wing in the unions. The tasks con
sist of:
/. Intensifying and redoubling the
activities within the unions, increas
ing the party membership in the un
ions and increasing the activities in
the daily detail work of union organ
ization and demonstrating that the
Communists are the conscious work
ers for the upbuilding and strength
ening of the trade unions.
2. 1t is necessary to avoid any pol
siey leading toward dualism or which
would give any pretext for the reac
tionary bureaucrats to expel Commu
nists from the unions on the fake CRY
of dual union organization"
3. Every effort must be made tC
expand the left wing in the trade un
ions by building up and formation Of
opposition blocs, by systematically
avoiding the narrowing down of any

Communist Anti-Mllltarism.
Basically the Communist sCanr
against militraism which distinguishes
it from petty-bourgeoisie pacifsm is
contained in the following: "a Wars
are inevitable under the reign of cap,
ital, particularly in the epoch of i'm
perialism, therefore the fallacy and
harmfulness of the idea that wars can
be prevented with pacifist slogans.
~ 1t is necessary for the proletariat
not only to fight against the danger OF
new imperialist wars, or for the rapid
cessation of such a war already start
ed, but to take advantage of the crisis
created to turn the imperiaist war in
to a civil war. go Bourgeoisie pacifsm
is only veil to hide the preparations
for imperialist wars to which the
petty bourgeoisie succumb. We will
mercilessly expose this bourgeoisie
pacifism. az We believe that capital
list militarism and the new war danger
must be fought NOW as against the
general phrases of the reformists
which promises to reply to a war with
a general strike and even revolution.
90 The slogans, Defend Your Coun-
try defend the fatherland), "A War
of Defense" are meaningless to the
working class. They have no father
land until thru revolution they have
established themselves in power.

steps be taken to carry out success
fully this task in respect to The
DAILY WORKER.
The meeting also went on record
for giving greater support to the In
ternational Labor Defense in the
building up of branches, in drawing
the women into the union fight by
improving the apparatus of the Wom-
ems Committee-particula by as
sistance in this respect from the low
or units; by helping to build up the
Y. w. L. and to carry out the instruc-
lions of the Communist International
for the building up of Negro organ
ization.
Comrade Weinstone finally declar-
ed that the attempts of the reaction
aries to isolate the left wing and the
Communists from the unions would
, be unsuccessful as it had been I'M
successful in the past, particularly If
the party membership will put into
effect the decisions of the last plenum
of the party for more attention to the
detail work of the party organization
and for successfully reaching out con
sciously and persistently for new
groups of workers by the adoption OF
slogans and tactics which would reach
workers still distant from us-espe
cially the American workers, who to
day are under the influence of reac
tionaries but are discontinued with
the corruption and inactivity of theii
leaders.

AT LENIN'S MEMORIAL !

Strike" the mass recitation by
Michael Gold, which will be produced
as a feature OF the Lenin Memorial
on January 2Srd at Ashland Audi
forum, is a drama form entirely new
TO the United States and is arousing
much interest here. The mass recita.
ton has been developed to q place of
Importance among the dramatic ef-
forts of the workers in Russia and
Germany. There are no principals,
no costumes, no scenery. The sue
cess of this form depends upon the
rhythm and cooperation OF the nu.
merous persons participating.

The lessons of Leninism as they
apply to the crisis with which the
American workers find themselves
faced thru the imperialist ventures OF
the Wall Street government in China,
Nicaragua, and Mexico will be ex-
planned from scores of platforms to
tens of thousands of workers in the
series of Lenin Memorial Meetings
organized by the Workers (Commu-
nist) Party in the largest cities of the
country.
More than ever at this moment do
the American workers and farmers
need a clear understanding of the
meaning of American Imperialism and
the ways and means of Fighting it.
The Lenin Memorial Meetings will
therefore be made into demonstra-
lions against American imperialism at
which the workers and farmers as
sembled will manifest their determi-
nation to fight Wall street and the
Wall Street government under the
| flag of Lenin.
The utilization of the Lenin Memo
I
rial Meetings as demonstrations
against the Wall Street policies of the
government is in response to the
statement recently issued by the Cen
trail Committee of the Workers Com
munist) Party which reads in part:
1.-THE mass meetings which have
been arranged by our party to hon
or the memory of the great leader OF
the proletarian revolution, Lenin, will
| be held this year at time when the
American capitalists and their gov
eminent at Washington are giving
the workers and farmers a concrete
example of the dangers Of new wars
and the consequent sacrifice and suf-
fering for the workers.
There is no better way of honoring
the memory of Lenin on the third an
niversary of his death than thru the
application of the principles of Levin
ism in the crisis which American i'm
perialism has created thru its imper.
ialist adventures in relation to Mica
ragua, Mexico and China.

Factory Newspapers Communist Shop Organs

this day, it must be said, have not
yet learned to deal with political
questions.
The problem of getting correct
balance between economic and politi-
cal articles, of tying these up with
each other, of drawing the revolution
airy implications simply and concrete
ly, is without doubt very difficult.
Much thot is required, and a careful
estimation of the workers in the shop.
None the less, political discussions
are an indispensable element of every
factory newspaper, or its very aims
are nullified. With more experience
in this new activity of our party, we
shall learn to correctly apply this
principle.
organizationaI Role Of Factory News
papers.
HERE, then, we have all the essen
IL tials of the factory newspaper, so
far as concerns its general purposes
and the character of its contents. This
is not the only problem faced in the
publication of shop papers. The ac-
tual preparation Of the paper by the
Communist group, the distribution
and financing-these are also ques-
tions of the utmost Importance, and
will be taken up in another article.
Enough has already been said, how
ever, to show how significant the fac
tory newspapers are in the work of
our party.
Shop papers must become an insep-
arabic part of the activity of Commu-
mist groups in factories, and every
/ district organization must give this
matter serious attention. The factory
newspaper has not merely an agita-
tional role, acting as the mouthpiece
of the Communists, shedding light on
the economic and political problems
Of the workers, raising slogans for the
betterment of their conditions. 1t has
also a very definite organizational
role. AS an effective instrument for
extending the circle of sympathizers
gathered around the group in the fac
tory, 1t provides first step in the
direction of rallying the workers
around the Communist Party. 1t
makes Communism not an abstrac-
ton, but reality. 1t makes the par
ty an active factor in the life of the
workers.
LIVERY work place must be our
~ stronghold--so wrote Lenin. Fac
tory newspapers, by helping our par
ty to strike its roots among the mass
es of workers, are Indispensable in
this task.
