drilling for ore There is no activity
in the new district. There is no oper-
alton of low grade properties.
The mining companies are working
out the old leases and making no new
ones. When the present leases are ex-
hausted, the state will face the pro-
position of building mining industry
on low grade properties only. Some
believe that it could not be done and
that Minnesota would be left with all
this low grade ore on its hands, worth
no more than it is today-which is
nothing.
AS to the future development of these
potential values, the state is thus far
absolutely innocent of any policy.

Marcus Garvey stands revealed as

endorsement of the democratic

with it's policy of violent repression
of the Negro workers, is base be-

blatant clown has placed the stamp
of approval on the business inter

Through the bitter experience of
everyday struggle the Negro will
learn that both the democratic and
republican parties are the agencies
of the employing class, which ex-
ploits both black and white workers
and whose policy it is to keep the
Negro at the bottom of capitalist
society. The Negro workers must
learn that both parties stand for
the same thing-lynching, segrega-
ton and exploitation.

BY OTTO E. HUIswOOD

Marcus Garvey. the "blind" Negro
Moses" Provisional President" of
Africa, has for once turned his at
tention to American domestic poll
tics. This sponsor of the Back to
Africa" movement and the naive
philosophy of Negroes voluntarily
isolating themselves from their
natural allies, the class-conscious
workers of all countries, has at last
seen light-the glitter of gold. He
is, now championing the cause of the
democratic party and AL Smith, the
arch-enemies of the Negro masses.
1t is rather curious that Carney,
who during the many years of his
activities in the United States
spurned all active participation in
the struggles of the masses for the
Improvement of their condition in
America has now aligned himself
with the party of slavery and the
lynching bee. But, for Mr.. Garvey,
principles and consistency do not
exist, His policies are rather based
on catch-as-catch-can philosophy.
A Different Song.
A few years back Marcus Garvey
addressed a letter to number of
white business men ard prominent
public officials, soliciting their aid.
morally and financiallv for the pur-
pose Of rnna-1iatinq Negroes to Al
RIGA He had an interview with Sim
mons. tho then Imperial Wizard of
the Ku Klux Khan, and the subject
of his conversation with this Grand
Cyclops, was to the effect that this
is white mans country, that the
white man was entitled to his SUI
premacy here, but, on the other
hand, Africa was the home of the
Black race, and that he should be
aided in establishing nation of his
own on that continent. Today he
is sinoing a different song.
In the Negro World" Of July 20,
Marcus Carney saws: "Once more
the time has come for the American
Negro to use his ballot wisely in
the interest of domestic politics and
supremacy in the interests of the
blac'5 race" And he proceeds to
tell his readers that they must vote
for Al Smith, mot because the
democratic party has been more
kindly disposed toward the Negro
than the republican party, but be-
cause Hoover represents gang Of
politicians who mean absolutely
nothing good to the black man ir
America nor anywhere else for that
matter."
The inference from this statement
The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1928-08-22

1t is evident that Marcus Garvey,
the leader, believes in the myth that
Abraham Lincoln freed the Negro.
This proves his complete ignorance
of the social conflict at that time,
which made it imperative that chat
tel slavery, primitive system of
production, be abolished and make
way for wage slavery. Besides, it
is apparent that he entertains the
illusion that the democratic party is
the party of the small business
man." He has no doubt never heard
of John J. Raskob, Pierre DUPONT,
and the other financial magnates
who are the power behind the demo-
Gratis and who have just as great an
interest in the subjugation of Lii
IBERIA.
In speaking of the occupation of
Haiti, Garvey says: at is true that
it was under Woodrow Wilson's re-
gime that America assumed control
of Haiti but Woodrow Wilson never
intended Haiti to be exploited as the
republican party has done" But
Mr.. Garvey does not tell us of his
secret information as to how Will
son and the democratic party in
tended that Haiti should be ex-

WI HILE those workers are suffer-
F" ing the fortunes of the damned

neither the republican, democratic
nor Socialist parties have word

AS Vanzetti wrote before the
executioner pulled the fatal
switch in Charlestown prison, he and
his comrade Sacco might have
spoken from soap boxes against the
capitalist system until the end Of
their days without awakening the
proletariat of the world as they were
able to do thru their execution on
a framed-up charge by the ruling
classes of Massachusetts. Those
two humble men became working
class heroes thru their sacrifice for
the cause of the oppressed. Their
memories will be honored for ages
to come, when the rotten system
that sent them to their doom, will
be a historical blot and the names
of their executioners recalled only to
be cursed.

Massachusetts does not stand

1t is time for the working class, for
all of us, to realize that there is
no liberty for the working class in
this country: that the struggling,
unsatisfied worker is deprived of all
tho so-called constitutional guaran-
tees; that he is confronted by a solid
wall of the organized state power
that does not shirk before the most
hideous crime; that in this respect
his position is hardly better, and in
many instances it is even worse,
than it was in Russia under the
czar after 1905.
The working class must see the
enemy's face 1t will then realize
that it can rely on nothing but its
own organized force.

Mrs. Updike says that the officer
was directing traffic at Fourteenth

night of December Is, and charged
her with disobeying his signal and
driving into an intersection.
She alleges her arrest was with
