We Celebrate the 18th
Anniversary Of OIgin S
Revolutionary Activities
By ]. LOUIS ENGDAHL.

E have celebrated the anniversary of the % years of
revolutionary activities of comrade Moissaye j.
Olgn, first editor of the Frehet Jewish Commu-
mist daily, editor of "The Hammer" the Jewish
theoretical monthly of our Party
1t was the first Jubilee" of the kind in our move
ment 1t was tremendously successful. A remarkable
audience filled Carnegie Music Hall, with many stand
ing, while the overflow was packed into the Central
Opera House
1t tribute to Comrade Olgin of giant proper
tons But it was more Because when the revolutionary
movement pays tribute one of it's leaders it does
honor to itself For Bolshevk leaders are born of
and must always remain part of the movement, ex-
pressing its best aspirations symbolizng the correct
ness OF its struggle, the living incarnation of its high
ideals If they in this, then their leadership ends
Thus, while the nearly 5000 and women of the
working class who filled Carnegie Hall and the Central
Opera House last Saturday night did honor to Comrade
Ogn they also paid tribute to the growth of the revo
lutonary movement among the Jewish workers here in
the United States. They did They also commem-
GRATED on this anniversary the advance of the revou
honary struggle of all workers in America led by its
Communist vanguard, the Workers (Communist) Party
The anniversary Of Olgn's revolutionary activities
was therefore anniversary of increasingly successful
revolutionary efforts OF the whole American working
class
1t was in this that brought the greeting of
the Central Executive Committee of the Workers (Com-
munlst Party to the Ogn Jubilee; the greeting of the
Central Executive Committee of which Olgn himself
Ia member.
We do not put comrades Central Executive
Committee because they speak for the Jewish workers
for the Russian workers, for German Italian South
Slav Scandinavian, the workers of some other ma
tonaIty living in this country. They become members
of our Partys leading committee because they speak
with the voice OF the class struggle in this country So

the workingclass to have their own
mediums for the distribution OF
workingclass news and propaganda.
GOVERNOR LEN SMALL, of Illi-
y nois is a firm believer in the. Com
persian policy Of reward your
friends and punish your enemies"
Len has many friends in Illinois and
it speaks well for the governors 10y
atty that he does not forget those
who do him good turn. He was
saved from possible Jail term by
labor leaders who suffered lmprison-
ment for contempt of court rather
than testify for the prosecution in
the famous million dollar suit brot
against Len by citizens in an effort
to recover that amount alleged to
have been misappropriated by the
governor while he was state treas
urer. The governor made restitution
in his own good time and at his own
financial convenience.
THE latest evidence of Mr.. Small's

cided to retain him and his wages
are being Contributed by his fol-
lowers. Workers who come under
Hefler's jurisdiction are forced to pay
weekly assessments towards hi s
wages under the penalty of losing
their job
Everything is lovely in the camp of
the Amalgamated!
Toronto and Montreal have extrica-
ted themselves, almost completely,
from the domination of the National
Office. General Officers have no
sway in either of those cities. In
Toronto the entire administration is
composed of anti-national-o ffice-poli-
cies and general officers seldom come
there. Beckerman's recent hostile re-
ception was already mentioned. In
Montreal conditions are very I'M
stable, due to a protracted strike and
the organization there is heavy
liability upon the National Office
treasury. Due to that fact the atti-
tude of the rank and file toward the
general office is more or less tolerant
But the presence of administration
men, however, always excites strong
suspicion among the workers.
One could enumerate these condi-
tons almost unendingly. In every
center the workers have tales of woe
to tell, they may differ little in par
ticulars but they generally run in the
same vein. Intrigue, coercion, abuse,
black-lists, these are the common al
lusions made in reference to the
Amalgamated Headers" Apathy
prevails everywhere. On every turn
"lame ducks" are encountered. The
old-timers dominate everywhere
In the left wing lies the only hope
of the A. c. w.

Today, the few locals that still exist
constitutes each it's own kingdom.
Like the city-states of ancient Greece
each group fights for it's own ag-
grandizement. Each unit tries to
exert its control over the manager
under threats of non-cooperation. Ma
tlonal prejudice is extremely keen.
The Jews have no use for the Italians
or Poles and vice versa. This in
dlvidualism has literally rent the few
remaining locals asunder, and resulted
IN conditions in the so-called union
shops becoming VIGOROUSLY degrad-
ing.
The workers whose wages were cut
are extremely dissatisfied and there
is ugly talk concerning the honesty
and so-called idealism of unionism.
The open-shoppers have taken great
pains to spread the news among their
workers and it can be easily seen
what capital propaganda against
trade unionism that will make.
One more incident will further
Illustrate the pitiful situation exist
ing in Philadelphia. Some months
ago a Campaign" was inaugurated.
Additional organizers were required.
Each group proposed candidates for
appointment. The pressers local put
forth man named Heller, not a
member of the union. Rumors have
it that he was in the liquor business
at the time. His reputation is of a
doubtful character.
His hackers brought pressure up
on the manager and an agreement
was reached that Heller be placed on
the staff as an organizer for a period
OF six weeks-for the duration of the
campaign. At the expiration of the
stipulated period our worthy candi-
date refused to leave. His group de-

Writes of Ku Klux Khan.

Editor, The DAILY WORKER:
The threatening letter Camp Nit
gedaiget received from the honorable
Klu Klux Khan and which you pub
lished is far too important, far too
historical document to let it pass
without comment.
Says the famous letter, "You
foreigners, Bolsheviks, believe in
robbing, killing and terrorizing.
This is not the ignorant Russia. j..
You want to destroy the liberty of
this country. 49,. We will take
severe measures against you and you
know the methods and tactics that we
apply"
1t must have been under a heavy
influence of liquor that the good XXX.
K. lauded US in such worthy terms,
actually heightening US to their own
level, making brothers out of us. At
last we may boast of great Ameri-
can achievement. We can not be diff
ferentiated from the xxx. We are
one and the same. We are told we
believe in the very principles the K.
XXX. pursue with SO much fervent
and religious zeal: killing, terroriz-
ing, etc. Is not this grand boys?
Christ bless usI eaaEaaA
''This is not the ignorant Russia"
0 no! This is the highly intellec-
tual, cultural, musical, spiritual,
poetical United States. This is the
universal center of divine knowledge.
What the ignorant Russia never
dared, We the proud, we the highly
intellectual, divinely cultural United
States dared. For seven years we
kept two workers in prison. They
were innocent of all crimes, but they
were ignorant anarchist bastards"
That accounted for everything. For
seven years we kept them in hell, in
darkness, in torture, in the constant
throes of death, and when we thought
they had enough of this living death
we, the judges, the presidents of uni
versities, the governors, murdered
them. And that was that!
"You want to destroy the liberty
of this country?"
Now boys, don't spoil the big
favor you did us. Don't accuse us
of being so foolish as to attempt to
destroy something that does not exist.
It's impossible! But our friend
Napoleon said that nothing was i'm
possible. So, perhaps you'll try. We
understand you're quite successful at
such undertakings. Try!
eve will take severe measures
against you and you know the
methods and tactics that we apply"
And in case you have forgotten, here
are few of the methods we good
Americans USE; We kidnap, we burn
property, we rape, we unsex, we tar,
we feather, we stretch living bodies
until the limbs are drawn out Of their
sockets, we kill, we murder, we burn,
we hang, we lynch, etc. That's
what we good Americans do.",-Emila

The Bolivian Uprising.
II. The DAILY WORKER

GulIOIJ LIE OA1L1 WOhhLh.
l have just finished reading the
brilliant explanation of Horace G.
Knowles in the Times on the reasons
for the recent Bolivian uprising
While being absolutely ignorant of
the details of the instruction, | have
ventured to give Marxist analysis
of the basic causes and contradictions
which brought on this incipient revo-
luton. My information is entirely
conned from Mr.. Knowles letter
Here goes:
In an article in the New York
Times, Horace G. Knowles gives an
interesting account of the causes of
the recent Bolivian revolution. Mr.
Knowles terms the outbreak as a
Scheme of certain sinister in
fluences to use the Indians as mere
catspaws," and goes on to describe
the kindly environment which the
Silas government has created for the
Inca. Yet on closer study Mr..
Knowles letter contains several con-
tradictions. He ascribes the suscepti-
bility of the Indians to revolutionary
propaganda to their ignorance but
forgets to mention the lack of educa-
tional facilities that the Silas gov
eminent somehow has omitted in their
campaign for the Indians Improve
ment and benefit" Surely if ignorance
is help to revolutionary tendencies,
it should be eradicated.
Mr.. Knowles continues with the
information that the Inca leaders had
been promised Influential political of
fees and to their followers ga share
of the property of the whites, or pa
irons and of the mines owned by
foreigners if the uprising should be
successful and the present govern
ment of the country be overthrown."
There, Mr.. Knowles, is the crux of
the whole situation. If the discomfort
of the Indians could be aroused to
revolutionary action thru the applica-
ton of the slogan Gland to the In
dian, this in itself presupposes what?
Not dissatisfaction aroused by sub
versive propaganda of the Commu-
mist, not an effort of a dictatorial
coup d'etat, but of a chronic eco
nomic disease called Gland hunger"
And this, Mr.. Knowles is no isolated
phenomena. You have but to look
at the growing agrarian revolution of
the Chinese peasants and the example
of the Russian revolution whose basic
strength lay in the "mujhis" demand
for land. for historical testimony.
Albeit, your puerile eulogy on the
pleasures of the primitive life to
which the Bolivian Indian is bound, is
nothing but camouflage for the
terrible conditions under which they
work and live. Stuff and nonsense,
Mr.. Knowles. Masses are not moved
soley by Communist propaganda. The
Communist Parties of the world are
the class conscious vanguard of the
working class and as such an integral
part of it. You cannot ascribe the
Inca revolt to mere propaganda. Eco
nomic conditions, we know, are the
fundamental reason for revolutions,

caused great worry to the national
officials. Pop" is a. regular" lie,
a trusted administration man.
Due to his age and eloquence "Pop''
is respected by practically all the
Italians regardless of differences of
opinions. At the meeting the exec
utive board members presented their
grievances and d demands. The
charges against the administration
were so fragrant that even Artoni, as
already mentioned, trusted admins
tration man, became indignant.
Remembering his position, how
ever, he asked those present-close
to a thousand members-included
among whom were the Italian bust
ness agents and the regular organi-
ger, whether anyone had anything to
say in defense of the administration.
No one answered.
Being convinced that the charges
must be true, "Pop" asked the Of
ficials to join him in a protest to the
National Office. He Immediately
made out his resignation and pledged
to lead the insurgents in their fight
until their demands would be grant
ed. The demands were for a new
election, the immediate dismissal of
the employment exchange manager
and few other minor demands.
The Heads Get Together.
The next morning the following
notables arrived on the scene: Hill
man, Bellanca, and that homeless"
intellectual, Giovanetti. A hasty con-
ference was at once arranged "Pop"
consulted with the "elite" behind
closed doors. What took place there
is easily surmised. Pop is an old
man, easily persuaded. When ne
emerged from the conference he had
the appearance of a beaten man. He
did make some effort to explain his
position to his followers" the rebels,
but with no avail The show was
over.
"Pop" left Rochester that evening.
The end dawned The storm was
quelled. A few examples of "disci-
pline" and "justice" marked the be-
ginning Of a new stage of apathy and
reaction in the Rochester situation.
What price "peace"
Leaving Rochester let us take a
glimpse at Philadelphia-the scab-
nest of the United States. In that
city of "brotherly love" the Amalga-
mated is feeble and impotent. Eighty
per cent or more of the needle in
dustry is run open-shop. Muddled
attempts at so-called organizing cam
paigns are made seasonally and each
time the inevitable defeat ensues.
Almost every campaign-defeat fiasco
is accompanied by a change in
managership. Each manager, in
turn, adds chaos to confusion. Every
new manager has his pet policies to
put over. The contemplation of new
policies absorbs time and fruitless eff
fort. The arguments, consequently,
overshadow the necessary construc-
tive work and the organization
usually descends into further abyss
of apathy and impotency.
