lnnocuous Statements
Charm Wall Street

(BY a Worker Correspondent
Count Michael Karolyi, first pres
ident of the Hungarian bourgeois
republic, left the United States.
Since three years he has been barred
from this country by the state de-
partment. His latest arrival mark
ed a change of heart on the part of
the officials of Wall Street in Wash
ington. Karolyi was allowed to
come in for two days. The capitalist
papers more warmly greeted him
than formerly. The conversation of
Karolyi with the state department
aroused hones in Karolyi about lift
ing up the ban.
What caused these changes?
Karolyi proved, partly by his ST.
lence, partly by his statements, that
he is not dangerous to capitalism.
Karolyi had his first opportunity
to state his views after his arrival
Sept. 1, at the Wall and South st.
mass meeting. But what happened?
He had nothing to say, no pro-
gram to offer, not a word in the
interest of the working class.
He received a cool reception. in

a demonstration of the Communist
Party, for the Communist Interna-
tionale. So the reception for Ka-
rolyi" turned to be a demonstration
for Communism. Even police brutal
ity could not stop the workers from
marching through Wall Street and
singing the revolutionary hymn.
At the Central Opera House there
was another demonstration for the
Workers Communist Party.
And here, Karolyi once more
proved that he has no program for
the workingclass. His statement
about 'his Jeffersonism" proved
that he is still the liberal he was at
the time of his presidency.

SEND DELEGATES
TO HUGE MEET
See Rapid Growth for
New Union
(Bu a Worker Correspoudent)

(BB II Worker Correspondent
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (By Mail).-
A new national miners union, with
fighting policies and organized bod
les of coal miners in every section
of the industry to start with, is an
assured fact. Despite all the terror
ism and intimidation of the Lewis
machine and the lack of funds for
an intensive campaign by the pro-
gressives, tens of thousands of mine
workers have elected delegates to
the National Convention, Sept. 9-16,
at Pittsburgh, Pa, which will organ
ize the new union, liberating the
miners from the traitorous leader
ship which has wrecked their old
union.
At least 600 delegates will gather
in Pittsburgh for this historic task,
judging by the large number of Gre
dentials that have already reached
the headquarters Of the National
Convention Arrangements Commit
tee, according to Pat H. Toohey, Sec
rotary of the Committee.
The credentials already received
show the following number of dele
gates from the various coal fields:
at least 40 from the states west of
Illinois, as from Indiana and Ken
lucky, about rs from Illinois, over
so from Ohio, about $50 from the
Pittsburgh District, about 20 from
District 2, Central Pennsylvania, so
from the Anthracite, about 100 from
West Virginia and 70 from the I'M
organized counties of Pennsylvania
No doubt there are additional dele
gates whose credentials have not
arrived yet.
The large delegations from the
formerly unorganized territories are
of particular significance. In the
short time that the National Con-
vention Arrangements Committee
has carried on organizing work, and
despite the lack of funds, it has sue
ceeded in organizing a large number
of locals and has established hun
dreds of groups in the formerly I'M
organized coal fields The miners
everywhere have responded with en-
thusiasm to the call for the new,
fighting National Miners Union, and
will gather their forces for the
struggle to regain the losses suf-
fered through the betrayals of the
Lewis machine and to re-establish
union conditions in the industry.
Every indication points to a rapid
growth of the new union. Sept. 9
will usher in a new day for the
miners of this country.

One of the leaders in the business
and industrial world-John J. Ras-
kob, Of General Motors Corporation
and F. l. DUPONT de Nemours-will
direct Governor Smiths campaign for
the Presidency. Raskob, who never
has been active politically was named
to succeed Glenn Shaver, retiring chair
man of the Democratic National Com
mittee, at a harmonious organization
meeting of the committee in New
York Wednesday, He is a close friend
Of the Presidential nominee, who sug
gested his selection. Born in New
York State at Lockport, the new
chairman, calls Claymont, Del, his
home. He also has a summer resi-
dence at Centreville, Md, where Gov
ernor Smith went recently to attend
the funeral of one Of his sons, killed
in an accident. Given wide powers by
the National Committee in the con-
duct of the campaign, Mr. Raskob i'm
mediately appointed Herbert Lehman,
New York investment banker, as di-
rector of finance, succeeding Jesse II.
Jones, of Houston. He also was auth
orized to name an advisory commit
tee, and without delay announced the
selection of Senator Gerry, of Rhode
Island, az its chairman. Raskob,
small Of stature and mild hammered,
was a "dalk horse for the committee
Craftsmanship. Until Wednesday Sen
ator Gerry and few others had figur-
ed mainly in speculation. His ap-
pointment was proposed by Josiah
Marvel, of Delaware, at the meeting,
which lasted only As minutes. The
new chairman's first act was to deliver
brief speech in which he warned
the Democrats against mud-slinging
in the coming campaign, declaring
that the party never had enjoyed such
prospects of success at the polls, and
Smyrna times., 1928-07-18

asserted that Smith, if elected, could
be depended upon to show construc-
tive leadership in the direction Of the
nations affairs He also described
the nominee as a friend Of the farmer
and referred to the prohibition ques-
tion without mincing words.
"If, as a result Of careful study,
Raskob said, "he can evolve a plan
for the regulation and control of the
liquor question in a way that will alb
solutely prevent the return Of the
saloon, eliminate bootlegging, with
its accompanying graft, cor
ruption and murder-and restore tenn
perate life in our country, then an
fair minded men must admit his right
if not his duty, as president, to pro-
mulgate such plan and to advocate
such changes in our laws and Consti-
tuition as may be necessary for its
adoption"
Contrary to expectations neither
Governor Smith nor his running mate,
Senator Robinson, attended the brief
committee session, but late both nom
inees joined the committee members
at a luncheon across the hall at the
National Democratic Club.
The governor had come from AL
bany for the occasion and while there
plans to map out with Raskob and
other leaders a campaign against the
Republicans. Mr. Raskob was auth
orized by the committee to consult
