Her mother chimed in.

clined the invitation.

Hardesty is supposed to be friendly

Colonel Caldwell is also friendly and

Workers Must Organize
To Fight Capitalism

Today the imperialsts of Amer
lea are more active than ever be-
fore in their offensive upon the
workers and the workers organiza-
lions. Scores of thousands of work
ers in the western Pennsylvania and
Ohio coal region are engaged in a
struggle for life and death against
the coal barons and their agents in
the union, the Lewis-Cappelini ma
chine; for the coal barons know that
if the Lewis machine succeeds in
crushing the United Mine Workers
Union these workers would have no
means for existence.
The attack of the capitalist class
and their agents in the labor move
ment, Lewis, Hillman, Sigman, ETC.,
upon the militant workers of this
country must be answered with a
counter-offensive from the working
class.
The attempt to crush the U. M.
w. A., the expulsion of militant
workers, fighters from the trade
unions, the sentence Of IL years of
prison imposed upon Bonita, the
shooting down Of workers in the
picket line is an indication of the
reactionary methods employed by
the capitalists and their agents to
destroy the labor organizations in
this country.
War Clouds Gather.
War is nearer now than ever be-
fore The antagonism between the
imperialist powers is growing
sharper and sharper. Each imper-
i#hst country is hunting for world
Iremacy.
The naval armament races of the
perialist powers is an indication

more than 20 workers clubs and four

The activity of the clubs-with

By ELLIS PETERSON

Last week there was convention
of all the Scandinavian Workers
Clubs in America. The convention
convened in Chicago, city with more
than 10000 Scandinavian Workers.
At this convention the Scando-Amer-
lean Labor League was founded. The
history Of this league follows:
There are more than 10000
scandinavian Workers organized in
this country. But they are not or
ganized for class-struggle. Their or
CARNATIONS are under the leadership
of the Scando-American bourgeoisie.
The workers were able to build up a
few Scandinavian organizations, be-
longing to the Socialist Labor Party
or the socialist party, but because Of
their sectarian or reformist tactics,
both failed The SP has now no in
fluence among the Scandinavians, the
SIP still has a few clubs with some
100 members altogether and a
