Poem This Week
Lnxn One Another

Love One Another
oh, be not the first to discover
A blot on the fame of friend;
Oh, be not of discord the mover,
For hearts may prove true in the
end.
We none of us know one another,
And oft in to error We fall
Then let us speak well of each other.
Or speak not of others at all.
A sign or a smile may awaken
: Suspicion most false or untrue,
And thus our belief may be shaken
In hearts that are kind and true.
How often the friends hold dearest,
Their noblest emotion conceal?
And bosoms the purest sincerest,
Have some secrets they cannot
reveal.
Leave base minds TO harbor sus-
pieion,
And small ones to trace out
defects;
Let ours be a noble ambition,
To love as our saviour directs.
Mrs. Irene G. e. Baker.

SEXTON-Mr. and Mrs Frank Short
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1928-04-03
By GEORGE HALLOWEEN.

Lenin as a MARKHAM and revolution
list, analysed cooperation from the
standpoint of the class struggle. He
understood that the cooperative move
ment is a mass movement of the pro-
letariat and petty bourgeoisie against
capitalist exploitation, and therefore
phase Of the class struggle. Lenin
understood that because certain eco
nomic conditions create cooperation,
it cannot be independent from these
conditions, but must change accord
ing to the changing of conditions.
Lenin did not ignore the cooperative
question as a minor one. He consid-
cred this question from the stand
point of how the cooperative move
ment is able to help the class strug-
gle and upon the answer he based his
tactics.
Lenin fought bitterly against the
Narodniki cooperative ideas. He point
ed out that the credit cooperatives
would serve only the wefl-to-do pea.
SAINTS and the poorer peasants would
be left outside. To help the develop
ment of big estates is not the bust
ness of revolutionists. The revolu-
tionists must help only that which
will strengthen the struggle against
the exploiters. The producers and
credit cooperatives as advanced by the
Narodniki will not help the cause of

Celebrated Press).

Frank o. Lowden, presidential as
pirant, former governor of Illinois
and chairman of the national crime
commission, publishes a report in
which he scores the failure of Amer
lean courts to apprehend and punish
Grim mails. In American cities the
crime rate is very high, while the
rate of crime punishment is low.
Robbery in Buffalo, for example
must be particularly lucrative
calling. AS arrests are made in only
3 per cent of the cases, the number
who are finally convicted is neces-
sarily so small that the luckless in
dividual who is occasionally caught
and convicted must attribute his mis-
fortune to an act of God, as he would
in case of disastrous storm, ship
wreck or earthquake" the report
says. Zone no longer wonders why

The Freiheit is here to stay. This
is clear even to our most bitter
enemies. The Communist and left
wing movement built the Freiheit.
A New Outlook.
The situation in this respect has
changed completely. The workers
have renewed their belief in the pow
err of the Communist ideal and the
achievements of the revolutionary
movement. The Jewish labor move
ment has a new outlook, it's creative
forces have found expression. In it's

Work Pays Less.

Where burglary and highway rob
berry become relatively safe and lu-
crative, men take them up as pro-
LESSONS. No intelligent person would
attempt to make his living as a gun
man, If he could make an equally
good income with less inconvenience
in some other calling.
At q certain point in the rise of
every great empire, banditry has paid
better than other forms of business
and better than work. From that
time, banditry is practised by people
who have initiative, courage and a
certain indifference to the opinions

Business is business. There is no

editor of the "Freiheit.")

The Freiheit has become the mass
organ of the Jewish labor movement.
Tens of thousands of workers look
up to the Freiheit as their leader.
The Freiheit is a fighting paper
not only in moments when the strug-
gle is sharp as during the struggle
of the Joint Boards of the Cloakmak-
ers and Furriers. The Freiheit al
ways remained fighting paper.
The Freiheit's Battles.
In the trade unions and in the
Workmen's Circles, against Zionism
and against yellow socialism, for the
Soviet Union and for Sacco and Van
zetti, for Labor Party and for the
slogans of the Workers Party, for
Jewish mass colonization in the Sow
let Union and against the specula-
tions of the "Bund'a in Poland, for
the miners and against Wall Street
imperialism and against the Jewish
bourgeois philanthropists, the Frei-
heit not only wrote but fought for
or against in accordance with the
Communist line of policy.
In it's first years of existence the
Freiheit was only good labor paper
on the fringe of Communism. Now it
finds itself in the midst of the Com
munist movement A sharp and clear
cut line separates US from the petty
bourgeois Jewish world. 1t is nc
wonder that we now hear complaints
from our friendly writers and artists
Their dissatisfaction is a result
of our Communist character. 1t is
difficult for them to adopt them
selves to the demands of Communist
mass paper.
1t would be an exaggeration tc
say that the Freiheit did not make
mistakes in it's early days. There
were cases, and very important ones
too, when the Freiheit was politically
weak. Some of the mistakes were I'M
avoidable. This was partly because
it took long time to build staff
for a Yiddish Communist paper. A
member of the Freiheit staff must
be Communist writer.

revolution. Lenin pointed out how
ridiculous it was to think that the
small producers cooperatives (artels)
would be the means for peaceful revo-
luton into socialism without a revo-
luton. The specialization of produc-
ton could not be realized in the small
villages, but instead it required the
appropriation of the bloodsuckers who
have monopolized the means of pro-
duetion, and this requires fight,
fight and fight and not meaningless,
narrow minded bourgeois morals"
Consumers Cooperation.
The consumers cooperative move
ment Lenin regarded as very impor-
tant for the revolutionary movement.
One has only to recall the Copen-
hagen Congress of the Socialist In
ternational (1910) to see Lenin's posi-
ton on this question. 1t is very sig
nificant that Lenin, the great revolu-
zionist, considered the cooperative
question so important, that he was
one of the Russian delegates to the
of the congress which
considered the cooperative question.
The cooperative movement at that
time was already big movement and
throughout a reformist movement.
Lenin, however, did not abandon this
movement because it was reformist,
but on the contrary fought bitterly to
win it over for revolutionary pur-
poses. The reformists understood bet
ter than many revolutionists the i'm

Lenin Stressed Cooperatives Importance

hagen Congress so important that he
wrote in the Bolshevist newspaper
"Social Democrat" special article,
"The Cooperative Question in the In
ternational Socialist Congress at Co
penhagen." In this he points out
that in the main the cooperative reso-
luton adopted contains right inter
pretations of the principles, but that
it is not clear enough because 1t was
a compromise resolution. The article
concludes with: "The fight against
the reformists is only postponed, and
will inevitably be resumed"
After the Revolution.
The revolution changed the social
conditions in Russia. The exploiters
were overthrown and workers cap
tured the political power. Therefore,
the purpose of cooperation changed
accordingly. Lenin's last article which
was published after his death was
about cooperation. In this he empha-
sized the importance of cooperation.
Now the producers cooperatives and
credit unions in villages are of great
Importance. The consumers coopera-
tives have also different purposes
than before the revolution. The class
struggle has attained it's highest out
come, the dictatorship of the prole-
tariat. Now is the time to build the
new society. In this work the CO.
operative organizations of the peas
ants and workers must be brought
nearer to each other.

With all it's defects the Freiheit
can record fruitful Communist work.
The Freiheit brought the Communist
ideal to thousands of workers. The
Freiheit was instrumental in turn
ing their Communist sympathies into
solid Communist convictions. The
prestige of the Party and it's ideo-
logic leadership is recognized by left
wing workers, and in this the Fret
heit has big share.
The Freiheit is a Communist pa
per surrounded by many workers
institutions. Almost all of them We're
built under the influence of the Fret
heit. Workers cooperatives, workers
clubs, left and progressive Workmen's
Circle branches, singing societies,

means by which the social question
can be solved without class strug-
gle and overthrow of the bourgeoisie.
1.-THE congress demands the workers
of all countries:
"a. To join as members in the
proletarian cooperatives, help their
development and thereby to defend the
democratic character Of these organ
izations.
"b. Thru indefatigable socialist
propaganda in the cooperatives to
help the workers to better understand
the idea of the class struggle and So
cialism.
&c. At the same time to endeavor
to bring all the different forms of the
labor movement to as complete unity
as possible.
"The congress also declares that
the producers cooperatives benefit the
fight of the working class only when
they are an integral part of the con-
sumers' cooperatives.
Lenin's theses were not adopted.
However the fighting attitude of

Labor Defense
Conference in
San Francisco
By WILLIAM sCHNErDERMAN

The California State Conference of
the International Labor Defense was
attended by ITO delegates represent
ing IS trade unions and other work
ers organizations, including many /.
L. D. branches. The conference was
opened by Edgar Owens, state secre-
tary.
On a huge poster in the hall was
the "Roll-Call" of 10 class-war pris-
oners in San Quentin and Folsom
penitentiaries, headed by Mcnamara,
Mooney and Billings and ending with
the framed-up victims of the recent
carpenters strike in San Francisco,
Pesce and Madsen. Letters of greet
ing were read at the conference from
Mcnamara, Corneilson and Pesce.
Cannon Reports.
James P. Cannon, national secre-
tary of the I. L. D., reported for the
national committee on the defense
work being carried on thruout the
country. Local reports for San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, Oakland, San
Jose, and other cities of the state
were also given.
Among the resolutions adopted at
the conference, the outstanding one
dealt with the opening of campaign
to free Mooney from jail.
A state committee of 20 was elected
for that purpose, and furthermore to
start a campaign for the repeal of
the criminal syndicalism law, under
which over 100 workers were jailed
in California since it's inception.
The state Conference of the l. l..
D. was a success, and has done much
to build a powerful labor defense
movement in California on behalf OF
class-war prisoners.

stitutions for adults and children, wo-
mems organizations, are woven
around the Freiheit and the Jewish
section of the Workers Party. 1t was
not an accident that the Freiheit cell
obration just past was arranged by
these organizations. The Freiheit is
their paper and the success of the
affair is their concern. To the call
of the Freiheit responded the best
and the most active sections of the
Jewish working masses. From the
point of view of activity and influ-
ence the value of a Freiheit reader
is worth ten times as much as that
of a Forward reader. This does not
mean that the Freiheit has reached
the maximum number of readers. OF
course not. We must concentrate all
