LOsOvsky Nails Lies,

MOSCOW, Sept. "a. Losovsky,
of the Red International of Trade
Unions, in an interview today, de-
clared that the rupture in the Anglo
Russian Trade Union Committee is
the logical and political result of the
system of sabotage in which the gem
eral council has engaged in the last
Is months.
"The general council of the British
Trade Unions," charged Losovsky,
wished to have such committee
as would sanction all it's filthy ac-
tions against the working class and
its servility towards it's bourgeoisie
and which would, from time to time.
pass left resolutions without pre-
venting the general council from car
rying on its policy"
Demand Criticism Stop.
From the Soviet trade unions it
demanded the surrender of the right
of criticism and instead of going into
the substance of pressing questions,
INDUCED in the most contemplate
Juridical trickery.
1T is noteworthy that the general
councils attitude towards the Cen
trail Council of Labor Unions of the
U. ). 5. K. increased in proportion
to the aggressiveness of the British
capitalist government against the
Soviet Union. The connection here
is more than clear.
PrOVOcation by Council.
Everything was carefully pre-
pared beforehand and the ACTIONS of
the general council at the Edinburgh
congress were provided for in detail.
The general council Intentionally sent
to US provocatory letter, fully real
lzing that our Central Council would
have to reply and, as the question of
rupture was a foregone conclusion
and surely agreed upon before hand
with the government, the final action
was affected in accordance with all
rules.
The correlation of the forces Of
the laboring masses on the question
OF the Anglo-Russian committee, does
not correspond with the correlation
OF forces of the congress. The fact
that millions of English workers are
at one with the Soviet proletariat is
sufficient guarantee that the gen
eral councils blow will not break the
growing ties between the working
class of the U. S. S. r. and Britain,
Assails General Councillors.
| Regarding the general councillors
we can say in reply to their petty
attacks: Love was without joy, sep
aration will be without sorrow. In
all the recent acts of the general
council they have shown that their
policy paralleled that of the British
tories and this is the first oppor-
tunity they have had to follow their
own policy to its logical conclusion
and identify themselves completely
with the government in its break
with the U. S. S. R."

perialism. Such has been the path
of the General Council during the
last two years.
Opposition Estimate Wrong.
Naturally" continues Pravda, "the
opposition in the All-Union Com
munist Party was absolutely wrong
when it demanded that the Central
Council of Russian trade unions break
relations with the British general
council. Of course, the Anglo-Rus-
sian committee could never be the
means of rendering harmless re-
formism in Europe" to quote Zinc
views words in 1925. This was
ridiculous, harmful exaggeration. But
then in the Anglo Russian committee
we did show to the whole world the
readiness of Soviet labor to affect
unity in the ranks of the world trade
union movement.
Does Not Represent Masses.
1.-THE swing to the right Of the re-
fornist leaders, their passing over
completely to the position of social
imperialism at this given stage not
only does not reflect the movement
Of the masses, but is due precisely
to the reformist fear Of the constant
leftward movement of the masses. In
more peaceful conditions it was pos
sible with left phrases to flirt with
the masses which were moving left
wards, but at this historical moment
this is dangerous because the masses
want action and not words. For
these same reasons the existence of
the Anglo-Russian committee has
grown dangerous to the reformists,
because the Soviet unions, through
their delegates to the Anglo Russian
committee, exposes the betrayals of
the social-imperialists
Labor Must Act Decisively.
"In order to carry on real strug-
gle against capitalism, against its
onslaught against the working class,
against its military ventures and all
it's other monstrous crimes against
labor the British working class must
get ride of this crowd of wretched
"diplomatists," who, brought up in
the school of compromise, fear criti-
cism like the devil and are devoting
their talents to sitting the British
labor movement.
Move Toward Own Graves.
"By their rupture of the Anglo
Russian committee the British social
imperialists have moved another step
toward their own political graves.
we do not want to keep in this world
those who tomorrow will be dead
and our close ties with all that lives
in the British trade unions with the
whole mass of English workers never
were nor can be severed"

Kerensky Attache Gets
Damages From Lehigh

The United States Court of APP
peals yesterday sustained the lower,
courts decision to award Sergei Ug-
het, financial attache of Bakhmetiev.
Russian ambassador to Washington
under the Kerensky regime damages
for Russian munitions destroyed on
the property of the Lehigh Valley
Railroad. The award was made in
spite of protest from the Soviet
Union, which requested that a cus-l
todian be appointed to hold the funds
pending further action. The request
of the u. S, S. R. was refused.
Despite the fact that other govern
ments were compensated for damages
to their munitions in the 1916 ex-
plosion, the courts Sustained the Lee
high Valley in it's refusal to pay the
Soviet Union for the destruction of
it's munitions.
Goes to Counter Revolution.
The damages awarded to Ughet by
the U. S. Court of Appeals which
amounts to between two and three
million dollars will go either to TO-
ment counter-revolution or for Ug-
het's personal use.
The Lehigh Valley railroad refused
to pay Ughet because he did not rep
resent the present government. 1t is
not known how soon the Lehigh will
be forced to pay Ughet the money.
The court has refused the plea Of
the Soviet Union for custodian for
the funds pending further action.

(ContlmaeG from P0gs One)
FRANCE appears to be manouvering
England into playing the intran-
sigeant militarist role with which
France was saddled by England after
the end of the war. Objective con-
ditions have forced the British en-
pire to increase its military establish
ment in order to defend the loot taken
from defenceless peoples for centur-
les and in preparation for its coming
war on the Soviet Union. Frances
lackeys, which include half a dozen
small nations represented at the
league, are put up to speak their
pieces while so far only lone Greek
comes to the tribune for Great
Britain. We shall await Brands
Forthcoming speech with much in
terest.
A PERSON with the rather appro-
a pirate cognomen of Payne has
written letter to US which expresses
somewhat illiterately his deep repug-
nance to Communism and every other
social theory that is in opposition to
capitalism. 1t is rarely shat one finds
any spark of originality in the minds
of this ultra-patriotic species. Payne
holds that United States marines are
in South America and China with the
consent of the natives. He would de-
| port every alien in this country for
three years without having declared
/ their intentions to become citizens
and winds up with: enthusiastically
yours" This fellow is candidate
for a lousy shirt and rat-infested
trench in the next war. He is well
come to crafty his taste.
THE impression that the police re.
serve their clubs for the heads OF
radical strikes is not borne out by the
\ treatment accorded to the truck
A drivers who quit work when their de.
mands for wage increase was re-
fused by the employers The police
are out in force with nervous fingers
on triggers and clubs poised for &C.
ton. The strikers are not ideolog.
ically radical. But they are insisting
on higher wages and insisting in 9
militant manner. 1t makes little diff
ference to the employer for the mo-
ment whether the slave who is max.
ing raid on his profits is radical
or a conservative. This lesson should
be engraved in the memory of every
trade unionist for use the next time
labor faker tells him that the bos-
! SEES will not be good to him if he fol.
| lows radical leadership.
A CHICAGO comrade who happens
"A to be one of those rare human

literature for the pure joy gained from

police of that city are making it very
difficult for him to engage in this
voluntary and very useful work. He
, suggests that little stickers with
simple messages to the workers prin.

He thinks those stickers pasted in
public places would attract attention
and would do much good. Many OF

excellent suggestions to make anc
