In November when the amnesty

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 81
Several young workers of this city,
Disguised with the capitalist sport
clubs, are anxious to organize a
Workers Sport Club.
Such an organization would well
come all young workers and stu
dents destined to be part of the
working class. A feature of such a
club would be mass participation in
meets instead of a small number
performing and the rest watching.
as is the custom of capitalist sport
clubs.
Those of us who are attempting
to organize this Workers Sport Club

in mass hikes, baseball, basketball.

real workers sport club. ANY young
worker can obtain information by

AFL MISLEADERS

ON SHOULDERS
Workers Stay Away
From Meet
(By a Worker Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, (By MaiD.-
The A. F. of l.. in Los Angeles, in
stead of the usual Labor Day picnic,
held a "mass" meeting in Labor
Temple, where less than 200 people
were present (many of them slept
thru the whole meetingl. The rank
and file showed good sense in re-
naming away. What the meeting
lacked in numbers it more than

platform, where there were % men,
all of them without exception capt.
talist politicians. These included
II judges, members of the legisla-
ture, lawyers, and one minister and
the lieutenant governor and district
attorney elect. All of them were
introduced in servile putting eulo-
gies. There was not the slightest
hint in the whole affair of working
class consciousness.
A local clergyman opened the
show with touching invocation. All
were asked to stand up, and did
but one. Daniel Murphy, a capt.
talist state senator, and labor faker,
was the chief speaker. He rallied
as follows:
"The workers in America get OPP
portunities such as are impossible
in Europe; the strike and boycott
weapon are obsolete; ETC., ETC."
The workers showed good sense in
staying away, and l wish / had. The
meeting was an example of would

The meeting closed with putting

Senator Dan Murphy is, and how all
classes loved him. This last state
ment is proof positive of treachery
to the workers. 1t is impossible for
all classes to love capitalist poll
tician, even if he is a member of

FREE CENTRALIA
VICTIMS, DEMAND
OF COAST LABOR
Labor Defense Gives
Full Support
by a Worker Correspondent

SEATTLE, (By Mail). - The
Seattle Central Labor Council, at
its meeting on May 2, adopted a
resolution calling upon Governor
Hartley of Washington to grant an
immediate unconditional pardon to
the Centralia l. w. WIS who have
been confined to prison for nearly
nine years. The resolution, which
will be submitted to all local unions
for similar action, marks the begin
ming of a concerted campaign by
labor to win freedom for these inno-
cent workers, victims of the CAPT
talist frame-up system.
A plea for pardon was presented
to the governor and the parole
board in 1926. At this time seven
of the jurors made personal plea
for the release of the I. w. WIS
completely repudiating their verdict
at the trial. The prosecuting attor-
ney himself has requested their
pardon. The governor, however, has
taken no action on the petition de-
spite the overwhelming evidence
presented pointing to the innocence
of the men.
Like all good capitalist politicians
he has his ear to the ground for
votes. He will be a candidate for
reelection in the fall and is looking
to his own political advantage. The
workers of Washington have moth
ing to expect from this member of
ii C lumber ring which was respon-
siblc for railroading the l. w. WIS
to Jail in 1919.
The hope Of freedom for the Soys
lies in the persistent and energetic
efforts by labor throughout the
state and country, by continued agi-
tation for their release, by mass
meetings, demonstrations, and every
other effective means of arousing
state and nationwide sentiment in
their behalf.
The International Labor Defense
of Seattle will gives it's fullest sup
port to the fight for the release of
the Centralia prisoners.

By WILLIAM F. DUNE.


WORKER CORRESPONDENTS
differ from professional journal
lists in that they are part of the la
Dor and revolutionary movement and
fight actively in the struggles of
which they write.
The wider the activity of worker
correspondent in the class struggle
the greater will be the field covered
by his reports. At first the worker
correspondent will find it hard to
gather material. AS a worker, or
binary, daily events of development
of the class struggle are familiar to
him. He expects these things as the
routine of working class life and
sees no news value in them.
Much to Write About.
1t is this outlook of the worker
that makes it hard for him to write
or speak. He is not inarticulate be-
cause of lack of words, but because
he has been taught by capitalism to
look upon the thousand and one
tyrannies, inconvenience and hard
ships inflicted on the workers as of
little importance-things to be en-
dured without comment or COM
plant.
The countless risks of industry
the accidents to and deaths of work
ers, even great disasters taking a
huge toll of working class lives
quite often cause less excitement
among the workers than among the
liberal middle class.
Why is this
Because among the workers,
deaths and accidents are common
things to be expected as part of the
price paid for being allowed to work.
This is the idea drilled into the
mass mind by capitalists and especi-
ally by capitalist journalism. The
death of the wealthy idler will get
the first page and streamer head
line, but the death of worker is
either not mentioned at all or given
half dozen lines.
A Class Enterprise.
Journalism is recording and ex-
pressing opinion on contemporary
events. Journalism, like everything
else in capitalist society, is class
enterprise.
Journalism is the day by day list
ing of the facts of industry and poll.
tics and an analysis of those facts.
Journalism is therefore a class af
fair just the same as politics, indus
try, art and education.
The ruling class puts its stamp OF
journalism just as it stamps every
other form of social activity. 1t car
even be said that more than in any
other form of social expression are
the class lines apparent in journal
ism.
Not only does the clearly class
character of the capitalist press be
come obvious to the class-consciou
worker, but the most casual obser
walton shows that every division ant
division of the social organism
has its journalistic expression.
The capitalist press itself shade
off into innumerable organs of sep
arate groups-employers' and bank
ers' associations, trade associations
clubs, special organizations for sup
preston of the workers, all hav
their own publications.
