Take Your Whelps, Mussolini!

AS the facts come out, one by one the almost
unbelievable cowardliness and general vileness
of the crew that Mussolni sent to drop fas-
cist flag and the popes cross at the North Pole
astonishes even those who thought they knew
the foulness of fascism.
It is established that the commander of the
expedition whiningly deserted his crew to save
himself. Then that two of his subordinate Of
ficers deserted the scientist Malmgren to die,
leaving him alive inside of a grave they had
dug for him in the ice, after taking all of his
share of food and even taking off his pants so
as to give added warmth to the fascists' legs.
Startling as is this picture, it is nevertheless
not in the least out of keeping with general
facts well known to men and women of the
labor movement who have experienced in less
dramatic setting the habitual ways of those
reactionary social elements typified by the
three fascist officers, Mobile, Zappi and
Mariana.
The difference is in the setting. Numberless
workers who have gone through the class
struggle, not only in such severe form as the
civil war in the old czarist empire, but even in
the plainest strike in an American coal field,
are fully aware that the beastly cruelty greed
and cowardice of a Zappi stealing the food and
clothes off the body of dying comrade is the
normal SplrlC OF Inc CLASS OF Ldppl whenever
put to the test
But the situation of men in world-heralded
-olar expedition-fixed in universal view sat

however mean, into at least the pretense of
locial behavior and comradeship. However, the
Girty fascist arrogance which has become a
systematic culture seems to have motivated

world attention was upon them.
let Mussolni defend his breed. Let us agree
with Mussolini that Mobile Zappi and Mariana
are well within the rules of fascist honor
in stealing the food and clothing of a dying
comrade. Didn't they do him the kindness of
digging grave for him in the ice?
Take your whelps, Mussolni, as they crawl
back to you. You may be proud of them.
But you and your kind are now better known

that must settle accounts once and for all with

Flunkeys Pose as Peace Angels

The socialist" government of Germany has
decided that the annual maneuvers of the
army and navy of the German bourgeoisie shall
be omitted this year.
But wait a minute. The German social
democratic party has not suddenly begun to
dlsarm the capitalist state The purpose of
emitting the maneuvers is-to save money for
the capitalist state this year, SO that there will
be more money with which to strengthen the
armed forces later And also to kid the Ger
man working class along with pacifist illusions
while the party of social treason puts on the
guise Of the peace maker"
The workers must not forget that on every
occasion in which the workers have come into
conflict with the capitalist state the social
democratic party has defeated the working
class by throwing against it the full armed
power of the state and by mobilizing all extra
legal fascist organizations of murder against
the workers. The Socialist party of Ger
many is the enemy of the German workers
splendid organization, the RED Front Fight
ers." The party of Noske, Schedemann and
Mueller does everything in its power to keep
the working class disarmed and the capitalist
class armed to the teeth, and the omission of
army and navy maneuvers this year fits in
with that policy.
IN the United States the Reverend Norman
Thomas socialist party stands for the same
thing, but hasn't had its chance yet If the
working class is sufficiently vigilant, it never

somewhat higher than those made
in comparable enterprises at home.
Therefore the money has gone
abroad and will continue to do so.
And the search for extra-territorial
business opportunities is bound to
continue not only in the form of in
vestments in government and cor
porate securities but also in enter
prises that are part of the Ameri-
can quest for certain raw materials.

What has driven the United

In the letter drafted for Boston
the Los Angeles unionists tell of
their own experiences with the G..
E. B. and of their struggle to build
an organization in this open shop
city. They describe them as fol-
lows:
1--WE have tried our utmost since
November 26th, 1926, to organize
union in this city. There are
about three hundred fur workers,
that can and want to be organized;
but this brings US to the main
question in this organization and
that is the charter from the Inter-
national.
"On July 1, 1927, we sought the
help of the Needle Trades Council
and sent $500 to the International
Fur Workers Union as the initial
payment on the charter. Several
months have passed without word,
then we requested the Needle Trades
Council to intercede for US. After

Working Youth Conference

for the work of the working youth
conference.
The following unions and youth
organizations were represented at
the Provisional Conferences: the
Plumbers Helpers Union; the Bak-
ers' Union Local 1874, of the Anal
gamated Food Workers; the Browns
vile Working Youth Center; the
Independent Shoe Workers of Great
er New York; the Knitgoods Work
ers' Union, Local 55, United Tex
tile Workers of America; Local Al,
Hemstitchers and fuckers; Local 43,
Millinery Workers Union; the Of
flee Workers Union; the Phillip
Jones Shop Committee; the United
Umbrella and Handle Makers
Union; and the Young Workers
(Communist) League. This group
of local unions and youth organiza-
tions has succeeded in establishing
base of operations among the I'M
organized young workers.
1t is easily discernible that most
of the unions on the Provisional
Conference are from trades and in
dustries which include large num-
Der of young workers in them.
Good Beginning Made.
The General Working Youth Con-
ference has received a very good
start. 1t is entirely free from those
elements who persist in talking
about their good intentions but in
reality cover up the labor fakirs on
whose good graces they are depend
ent for the continued existence of
their institution. 1t is free from
those elements who hesitate and de-
lay before they get down to the
actual work of organizing.
The Working Youth Conference
has the perspective of being able to
lead the young workers into strug-
gle for the betterment of their con-
ditions and for unionization. The
Working Youth Conference has no
illusions about being able to organ
ize all of the unorganized young
workers in the city. But some start
will be made; many contacts will
be developed; the message of mill
tant unionism will be brought to the
attention of tens of thousands of
young workers.

Foreign Investments and Foreign Policy

THERE is certainly nothing novel
in the statement that the flow
of American capital to foreign coun-
tries has run parallel with the
growth of the United States as a
world imperialist power. Although
this country ever since its unjust
and aggressive war against Mexico
had manifested strong annexationist
tendencies it has been only during
the period of the export of capital
both to the relatively backward
countries of Latin America and,
more recently, to European coun-
tries that it has assumed the role
of the worlds dominant financial
empire.
Development of U. S. Imperialism.
The Spanish-American War made
America accept the burden thrust
upon us unsought"-to use the
words Of President McKinley--of

Tendencies out of Porto Rico, Guam
and the Philippines. A vigorous
president "took" Panama from Co
lombia, after, as he put it, making
every effort to persuade Colombia
to allow herself to be benefited" by
the act. Since then this country
has established what even the his
tory text books describe as virtual
protectorates over Haiti, Liberia,
Nicaragua and Santo Domingo, and
has brought several other formerly
independent and sovereign states
under its control. 1t has interviewed

revolutions in one country, or at one
period, and their suppression in an
other country or at another period
in the same country, depending
solely upon the extent to which
American economic interests were
advanced by the action.
This policy is bound to lead to
similar participation in the "white
mans burden" in the future. More
than that, the American concession
aire abroad has been able to use
your state department to assist him
in securing his original concession
or economic claim in the backward
country. At other times he has
used it to prevent the cancellation
of his concession through a change
in the native government.

the left wing and progressives were
not sufficiently drawn into the work
of the conference.
Since that time the work amongst
the young workers has not ceased.
The League has made several at
tempts to organize the young work
ers, and in some instances, like the
International Handkerchief Co., a
shop committee of 40 young work
ers was organized. The League
continued to issue leaflets and bull
letins in Sunshine Biscuit, in Auto
Strop, in Eagle Pencil, in Park &
Tilford, and in many more factories
in New York. But the one big
shortcoming was that there was no
central campaign, no intensified
drive, no mobilization of the left
wing forces, for a general drive to
help organize the young workers.
June Conference.
On June 22nd, in the Labor Tenn
pie, group of IL organizations
gathered to hold provisional con-
ference. Eight of these were local
unions, two were working youth or

the young workers.
Plan General Conference.
The discussion was very much to
the point. There were no phrases
banded around at this conference.
The speeches were short and in
structive. At the conclusion of this
point on the agenda, the question
of preparations for the General
Working Youth Conference was dis
cussed. Briefly the following was
decided upon:
1. That a General Working Youth
Conference be held sometime in
September.
2. That there would be three
delegates from every local union;
l delegate from each working youth
club; l delegate for every 10 organ
lied workers and l delegate for
every 5 unorganized young workers
in the shop committee.
8. That a resolution be drawn up
dilu oCiiI W CNCIy ldUOl ullOn III
New York on the question of the
unorganized young workers.
4. That leaflet addressed to all
unorganized youth be printed.
5. That a speakers bureau be
elected to visit local unions and
working youth clubs asking for en-
dorsements of the General Work
ing Youth Conference.
6. That an Executive Committee
be elected consisting of one repre-
sentative from each organization.
Work Proceeds.
The Executive Committee held it's
first meeting, a resolution was
drawn up, discussed and corrected,
and will now be sent out.
Twenty-Five thousand leaflets
have been printed and are now be-
ing distributed to unorganized
young workers in candy factories,
shoe factories, knitgoods, depart
ment stores, biscuit-making, radio,
pencil factories, needle trades
building trades, and many other
factories and trades.

a few more months of waiting they
finally replied that there was some
technical error in filing the appli-
cation and asked us through the
Needle Trades Council to make a
correction of these mistakes. After
complying with this request we
waited some more. The delay was
getting rather lengthy, then after
IL months of agitating them, they
finally returned the money to the
Trades and Labor Council giving no
satisfactory explanation, so far as
we know, even going so far as to
ignore these fur workers and not
wanting to deal with us. 1t was
only because we threatened to ex-
pose them that the Trades and La
Dor Council, through the Needle
Trades Council, was forced to act
and it was then a question of either
returning the money or granting
the charter"

tion demands that the general exec
utive board of the international to

without a dissenting vote to notify

destroyed by the bosses as long as
