Silk Strikers National Socialists Say Pirates
Union Wall Street

Quite in keeping with the trend of the
present day socialist party is a headline in
their weekly organ, the New Leader an
nouncing, in reference to the death of
Thomas Fortune Ryan that the ''last of the
old Wall Street pirates is gone"
Now that in the opinion of Morris Hillquit
Norman Thomas &>Co., the leaders of Wall
Street are no longer piratical, there is no
reason why the socialist outfit cannot justify,
at least to their own satisfaction, the fact
that their party has become the little third
party of capitalism in this country.
The implication in the New Leader is plain.
]. P Morgan, who was active during the hey
day of Ryan is not pirate, but financier.
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., is captain of in
dustry and being a Sunday school teacher
is in the fellowship of Jesus with the recent
socialist presidential candidate, the Rev. Nor
man Thomas, in spite of the fact that he oc-
casionally INDUCES in baby burning as he did
at Ludlow, Colo, on April 20, 1914.
Politically the socialists serve the in
terests of Wall Street by denying in their
parliamentary platform the class struggle
and sowing pacifst illusions regarding the
danger of a new world war They also aid

the whole world by persistently traducing
the Soviet Union. In the December LIST issue
of their weekly sheet, adjoining the column
which contains the announcement that the
last of the old pirates of Wall Street has gone,
is an article by one Louis Stanley which in
the most scurrilous but withal stupid and
ignorant, manner villifies the Soviet Union,
the Communist International and Comrade
Stain, the secretary of the Communist
Party of the Soviet Union as devotees of
white terror" and in addition repeats, the
SANDERS of the Trotskyites. Such vile de-
famation of the workers and peasants gov
eminent and the Party of the revolution only
serves to try to weaken and disarm the work
ing class in the capitalist countries, thereby
paving the way for an imperialist drive
against the revolution and is openly counter
revolutionary.
The political alliance of the socialist party
with capitalism extends far beyond the
sphere of mere propaganda and parlia-
mentary action to complete unity with Tam
many police, gangsters, gunner and the
bosses in the garment industry as was COM
pletely revealed in the campaign of union
wrecking carried on against the rank and file
of the international Ladies Garment Workers
Union, the Furriers and other needle trades
organizations.
Certainly one cannot expect the depraved
e-breakers, masquerading as socialists,
to consider the ruling class they serve as
group of pirates

A Helping Hand to Trusts

The merging of government with business
is no better exemplified than in the annual
report of the department of justice submitted
by the attorney general of the United States,
which says lin part:
at has been the aim of the department to
meet at their inception business projects in
volving possible violations of the antitrust
law. 1t is believed that this method insured
not only more effective enforcement, but by
ticipating and having determined the questions
involved enables industry to be guided by the
decisions of the supreme court.
In plain words the report establishes the
fact that it has been and is the policy of the
department of justice to advise bankers and
industrialists how to form trusts.
The department of justice, as the so-called
law enforcement branch of the government,
becomes the attorney for the trust magnates
and guarantees them against litigation for
violation of the antitrust laws.
The policy enunciated by the attorney
general has deeper meaning than is here i'm
piled. 1t indicates that not only will the
government aid those who want to form
trusts, but that it will also bring about trusti-
fcation in those branches of industry not up
to the efficiency" standard of Hooverism
It is a part of the preparation by the ruling
class of this country, of which the govern
ment is executive committee, for the impend-
ing imperialist war.
AS counter blast against the announce
ment of the attorney general the masses of
workers in the great industries of the country
should organize into powerful unions. One OF
the most effective weapons in struggle
against imperialist war is the organization of
workers so that they can cripple the war in
dustries
Not pacifist phrases, and pious wishes will
avert war; Only the organized might of the
working class in the basic industries and in
the armed forces of the nation will enable the
workers to wage revolutionary struggle
against the war-mongers-

oped the solid feminist foundation
of the Communist movement, and
cleaned from it's ranks those few
vacillating petty bourgeois elements,
who succumbed to pessimism in the
face of difficulties.
"Trotskyism finds its latest ex-
preston in hopelessness before the
defeat of the Chinese revolution, the
sterilization of capitalist economy
and the great task of constructing
socialist industry and collectivizing
agriculture in the Soviet Union. The
world revolution does not develop in
a straight line, and without tenn
porary defeats of the workers and
oppressed colonial peoples in their
struggle against the forces of world
oppression and exploita-
ton. The imperialists seem to
have vanquished the heroic Chinese
people in their struggle for liberia
ton. But the Chinese workers and
peasants will gather renewed 1ener-
gy and confidence. The Chinese
revolution will rise up again, strong
er, firmer, mightier. The stabiliza-
ton of capitalist economy far from
leading to greater security in the
capitalist sector of the world, leads
to the intensification of the con-
tradictions and conflicts in the i'm
perialist world. Germany has be-
come once more a powerful competi-

a powder-mine. At the same time,
the objective facts show more clear
ly every day, that the Soviet work
ers are building up socialist indus
try at an amazing pace-against all
obstacles. The news in the capital
list press of isolated acts of terror
by rich capitalist peasants does not
indicate a crisis; on the contrary,
with the development of collective
agriculture on a firm basis among
the millions of poor peasants at the
expense of the rich capitalist ele-
ments, those elements have resorted
in one incident to terror against
Soviet officials. The rapidly devel-
oping Socialist Soviet Union is the
inspiration of the workers of the
world.
"The pitiful isolated Trotskyists
fail to see the growing forces of the
world revolution. At a time when
the Soviet Union is faced with the
danger of an imperialist onslaught,
these individuals combine with their
deceitful revolutionary phrases, the
meanest ISLANDERS against the work
ers' state, and effectively align
themselves with the imperialists and
their agents, the social reformists
and labor bureaucrats. The Com
munist international directs it's
course with the Sure compass of
Marxist-Leninist proletarian science.
1t will not leave this course. This
course leads the workers and the
oppressed peoples Of the world into
the final victorious conflict against
imperialist war, oppression, exploit
alton and darkness. The Commu-
mist Party of Canada calls upon the
workers to form their ranks for the
struggle against the imperialist
war and for the defense of the
Soviet Union.

The Communist Party Of Canada
has issued the following statement
concerning the danger of right err
rors and Trotskyism within its
ranks:
at is the duty of the revolution
airy party of the working class to
wage the class struggle not only on
the political and economical fronts,
but also upon the theoretical and
theological front to maintain the
clarity of proletarian, revolutionary
theology on the basis Of Marxism
and Leninism. The Communist Par
ty cannot tolerate in it's ranks any
elements, which represent any form
of petty-bourgeois or bourgeois
theology. Bourgeois ideology, with
the tremendous powers at its dis
posal, constantly forces itself upon
the working class, and finds it's rep
resentatives among the upper strata
of workers, and petty bourgeois and
intellectuals on the fringe of the
working class. Particularly, in the
present epoch of wars and world
revolution, does the bourgeoisie of
the whole world intensity it's strug-
gle against the revolutionary, Len
mist theology of the proletariat;
particularly today, when the work
ers of the world find themselves
confronted with the great task of
turning the coming imperialist war
into class war for the overthrow
of Imperialism, do the comfortable
trade union bureaucrats and part of
the small upper strata of the work
ing class go completely over to the
side Of the bourgeoisie. The social
reformists are the representatives
of bourgeoisie theology in the work
ing class movement. In the ranks
of the revolutionary party of the
working class, isolated individuals
are found who succumb to petty
bourgeois pessimism. In the Soviet
Union, where the workers are
triumphantly building up socialist
society, this pessimism found its
crystallized expression in the theory
of Trotskyism, which Lenin consis-
tently combatted for twenty years.

"The conduct of the socialist party,

Iglesias comes back with general
charges, but it is to be noted that
both leaders, while avoiding care

forced by the basic aspiration of the
island population for independence
to speak however weakly against the

Trotskyism is social-democracy dis
guised with revolutionary phrases.
Maurice Spector was unhesitat-
ingly expelled from the Communist
Party of Canada at special en-
larged executive meeting by unani-
nous vote on the grounds of his
open alliance with Trotskyism
against the feminist policy of the
Communist International. Trotsky-
ism was completely repulsed by the
million members of the Communist
Party of the Soviet Union and the
masses of class-conscious workers
of the Soviet Union. The Commu-
mist Party of Canada emphatically
condemns Trotskyism as effectively
counter-revolutionary and in ex-
polling Maurice Spector from it's
ranks, reaffirms its stand upon the
clear feminist policy and program
of the Communist International. In
succumbing to petty bourgeois pes
simism, Maurice Spector has allied
himself with the renegade Max
Eastman, and finds himself with
out single ally among the class
conscious workers of Canada or in
the ranks of the Communist Party.
Two days after his expulsion (No-
vember 11th) he made use of the
reactionary Toronto Globe to SLAM
der the Soviet Union, and his ex-
pulsion from the Communist Party
was used editorially to indicate a
world crisis in the Communist In
ternational. There is no crisis in
the Communist International and
there is no crisis in the Communist
Party of Canada. The wish is
father to the thought. The struggle
against Trotskyism has not weak

When thieves fall out, the ancient
saying goes, honest men have a
chance to learn the facts. The Porto
Rican elections recently held, but yet
disputed, have stirred the interest of
Porto Ricans in the United States.
A New York Spanish language capt.
talist daily, La Presna, is-rather re-
luctantly, it appears-carrying much
information of what is going on in
that land which is both in and yet
outside the United States, according
to U. S. courts.
The elections in Porto Rico fol-
lowed the devastations of a hurri-
cane, and have excited only slightly
less turmoil. The old ruling party,
"the Alliance" seems to have been
beaten by the coalition" The
former is led by Antonio Barcelo
and the latter by Santiago Iglesias,
who is correctly labeled as lackey
Of imperialism by his position as
Latin secretary of the Pan-American
Federation of Labor and the fact
that he heads the socialist party in
the island.
That Senior Barcelo of the ALI
ance is no better than his foe, Lyle
sias, appears evident from the gen.
eral servility to U. S. imperialism
of his past ruling regime. Twelve
Porto Ricans, writing to La Presna
from 33 Main ST., Brooklyn, give
other startling charges against the
Alliance and expose the use to which
Red Cross funds, supposed to re-
lieve hurricane sufferers, are put.
They write:

Counter-charges of the Alliance
against the Coalition are especially

"In the district of Humacao, the
socialists, with the aid of the sugar
corporations, that, angered by the
Alliance policy against the seizure
of lands and the monopoly of these
corporations, helped the socialist
party with money and employees.
"The spectacle of the electoral
struggle offered in this district was
the most shameful in our political
history. The socialists and the sugar
centrals combined bought votes and
threatened the electors with eviction
from their properties and discharge
from their jobs. The auto trucks of
the sugar centrals, filled with poems
headed by straw-bosses,, speeded

Why Be Mystified?
Barcello claims that the Alliance
earned the attack of the American
residents and interests. He states
that this attack is explainable by the
special interests of these Americans,
but he proceeds:
