REMOVAL Of PARK
SEWERS PROPOSED
Diversion of Storm Waters
From Rock Creek TO
Potomac Discussed.

A small boy slipping into Rock
Creek near the outlet of the . street
storm-water sewer a few days ago
has started discussion among park
officials of the ACCESSIBILITY of diverting
to the Potomac River all such out
lets in connection with the compile
tion of the Rock Creek Potomac Park
way.
Officials Of the sewer department
xav there is a solid wooden gate over
the mouth Of the q street storm-Water
sewer which is opened by the force or
the water during the period OF ram
fall. There Is no discharge from the
sewer except while it is raining ana
the gate remains closed automatically
except while rain-water is flowing OUT.
The gate had been washed away
recently. but, according to the sewer
oepartment. had been replaced by
workmen before the boy fell into the
creek.
Acts as Safety Barrier.
Officials Of the department say there
was ONLY about one foot OF water ana
one foot Of mud in the creek at that
point on the day in question. Nhlle
the flood gate was placed on the sewer
primarily to prevent odors from drift
ins up TO the bricle path which runs
along the creek, it acts also as safety
barrier
After years of gradual progress, the
District has just completed a large
interceptor that diVerts to the pump
ing station all sanitary sewage for
merly discharginG into the creek. but
officials say it was never contemplated
that the storm water flowing into the
Ia tot
ceptor. They say an interceptor to
catch the various storm water lines
running to the creeS would have to be
very large in diamfter and would be
o costly project.
Sewer Outlets Inspected.
Frank Gartside 5of the Office of
Public Buildings and Parks, acting
on direction of Lieut.. Col. y. S.
Grant. Sd, inspectedt the sewer outlets
along the creek yesterday. He said
there is a barrier at Ahe point in ques.
ton and he found 10 special danger,
other than the sstbility that exists
of children falling hto the creek at
any point Throughout its length. He
did find place neat o street where
the dirt bank in brk of the bride
path was in such Condition that it
might cave i'll on thildren If they
were playing there, &nd he made ar
rangements 10 have !his fixed. That
condition, however. bore no relation
to the danger of fall1g in the creek.

that the question of United States
sovereignty is "purely academic" and
deals only with whether the United
States possesses rights of sovereignty
over the canal zone or only such
rights as it might exercise if it were
really sovereign" Such a stand is
to be expected from a spokesman of
government that in the most venal
and servile sense is the plant tool
of Wall Street despotism.
1t is only a short time ago that
the armed forces of the United States
rescued the Panaman government
from the fury of it's own population
and that government remains in
power today only by virtue of Wall
Street support.
Less than two years ago, in DC
tober, 1925, armed forces commanded
by Brigadier General c. H. Martin,
under direct orders of General Las
sitter, in command of the zone, let
loose upon the population of Panama
City the most frightful terror in sup
pressing tenant demonstrations
against high rents. Labor head
quarters were sacked, workers were
savagely butchered in the streets, the
tenant leaders were jailed, the sup
preston even extended to the rela-
tives of the victims who tried to at
tend their funerals. "Order" was re-
stored by the gunner of imperialism
and the vassal government of Wall
Street was secure. After two days of
ruthlessness the only sound in the
streets was the tramp of the iron
heel and the muffled groans Of the
victims of the outrage.
In spite of the twaddle of Kellogg
and Swanson about the civiliing role
of the United States the record in
Panama is that of ravager of small
nations.
The way to fight A m eri C n
imperialism is not by futile appeals
to the league Of nations but by or
ganization of the Latin American ma
tions into a powerful anti-imperialist
bloc as, an instrument for a direct
fight against the marauders. This
will not be done by the political tools
of Wall Street but by the oppressed
and bleeding masses of workers and
peasants who must rise against the
combined agencies of yankee tyranny.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-09-15
THAT there is no revolt on the

THAT there is no revolt on the part
l of the Panama government
against Wall Street and that it is
still subservient to Wall Street was
evidenced by the comments Of the Of
ficials of that government who de-
clared they could not understand why
Morales made such a plea to league
members. The editor of the semi
official Panama American" asserts
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-09-15

AGAIN, there is, Of course, the pos
"A sibility that Morales speaks for
those small Panaman business in
terests who object to the establish
ment by the United States of COM
mercial houses in the Canal Zone. 1t
was this clause in the new treaty
between the United States and Pana-
ma that aroused the greatest an
tagonism when it was before the
Panama congress for ratification.
While the majority of native capital
lists of that nation are agents of yam
kee imperialism there are small petty
bourgeois groups who seek an in
dependent existence, which they are
denied in case of monopoly of COM
mercial business by the government
of the United States. Even granting
that Morales may speak for the small
capitalists of Panama the fact re-
mains that his action can be used by
the powers for their own ends. Ger
tainly the class. prejudices of a
spokesman for the Panama small
business men could be utilized in the
league by the Wall Street gang in
order to reopen the question of the
world court Of the league of nations
and insist that the defense of the
neutrality" Of the canal necessitates
this country having official repre-
sentation on that tribunal. On the
other hand British diplomacy may
use such prejudices to endeavor to
weaken the influence of American
imperialism and for it's own specific
ends.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-09-15

former foreign minister of Panama as
an aid in combating the influence of
the United States upon smaller ma
tons that have raised embarrassing
questions regarding the domination
Of the league by the big European
powers.
There is also the possibility that
Morales is playing the game of that
section of the American imperialists
who favor this country entering the
league of nations in order to wrest
domination from the big European
nations and use it for it's own inter
national brigandage. The question
might purposely have been brought
up so that supporters of the league
in America can have their political
marionettes raise the question in
congress, and at least, revise the world
court resolution so that the United
States can take it place in that body
which furnishes the legal cloak for
the international pillage that is
carried out in the name of the league.
In this connection It is amusing
to note the Indignation of the So
called liberal senator, William E.
Borah of Idaho, chairman of the SEN
ate foreign relations committee, who
joins Kellogg and Swanson in declar-
ing that the question of Panama is a
question for the United States only.
Borah, who shared with Jim Reed of
Missouri the leadership of the anti
world court forces is not astute
enough to perceive the deeper cor
rents of international duplicity and,
although his position as defender of
the middle bourgeoisie impels him to
fight against European entanglements
in general he is frequently found in
the camp of the most outspoken i'm
perialists.
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-09-15

II is impossible at this moment to
. perceive, through the maze of intri-
CUES and the cabals of the league the
real motives behind the declaration of
Morales. 1t is doubtful if it is a
deliberate provocation on the part of
Britain, but it is crtain that Sir Aus
tin Chamberlain and his associates
will welcome the statement Of the
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1927-11-04

COOLIDGE has called on the nation
y to aid peace as he issued an armis-
tice day proclamation. Whereas"
goes the manifesto, sit is fitting that
the recurring anniversary of this day
should be commemorated with thanks
giving and prayer and by exercises
designed to further the cause of per-
manent peace thru the maintenance
Of good will and friendly relations be-
tween nations" On another page of
the paper in which this proclamation
appeared we find this headline:

Nicaraguan liberals. But amt this

By Upton Sinclair

And Harry Leon Wilson. Here was
man with all the makings of nov
elist. Twenty-Five years ago he wrote
"The Spenders," a book that dealt
with reality; but now his charm and
humor are wasted upon the empty
sugar and water themes required by
Lorimer. At the height of the White
Terror he made his contribution to
the task of keeping America capital
ist-a tale about some workers who
took over a factory and tried to run
it, and the absurd mess they made.
So it was taught to Saturday Eve
ming Post" readers ten years ago;
and not even yet has Lorimer let them
learn that the Soviets have got pro-
duction back to the pre-war standard.
Or my friend Nina Wilcox Putnam.
Would you ever dream, to read the
rubbish that she ladies into the Lor-
inner soup-kettle, that she possesses
real brains, and wit and radical SYM
pathy? That is when you listen to
her talk. But, alas, we "reds" have
no paymasters, and Nina has no So
cial conscience. 1 could tell you about
others-but it makes me sad, and, l
conclude with my friend Sinclair
Lewis, who lived in the kennel for
many years, but jumped over the
fence. He told me how Lorimer took

and vowed to "get" it's author. Also

country in four special antipathies-

years ago he contributed to "The Lib
orator" wild and terrible poem, and
I reproduce it here without giving
you any hint what it all means:
