he Reconciliation of the Socialist
Party With Gumshoe Pete

w. E. Woodward, novelist author of
Bunk" of a biography of George Washing
on and one of General Grant, has made a
contribution toward clarifying the recent
shift of the socialist party from the extreme
light to the ultra-extreme right, the ellmlna-
ion of all reference to the class struggle
rom it's constitution and the general adjust
nent of that partys formal front to its &C
.ual front of warfare against the working
lass for the preservation of the capitalist
system.
Mr.. Woodward has announced that he is
"a socialist of the deepest dye'-then ne
explains why and when he got the deepest
shade of the saffron socialist dye upon his
clothes. The explanation comes in the text
If a letter written by him to select num-
Der of artists and writer's to ask their sup
BORT of the Reverend Norman Thomas for
president Such a vote; says he will help
to make American politics more realistic
and will ''help lay the foundation for pow

Nothing about the working class of course.
It is small American echo of Ramsay Mac
Oonalds recent declaration that the British
social-democrats constitute, not class par
ty, but party of intellectuals.
That sufficiently explains why Mr. Wood

But the greatest significance is to be found
in his explanation on the point of the time
If his joining. For Mr.. Woodward makes
plain that he would not have joined the So

now because of the changes that time has
wrought
Let Woodward speak for himself:

Textile workers throughout the
country are looking with eager eyes
toward the coming convention called
for September 1928 in New York
City by the National Textile Mills
Committee. They see in this conven-
ton the first step toward the or
ganization of a new union for the
textile industry which will fight to
lift the workers out of their present
wretched condition of long hours,
speed-up and wage-cuts.
From Maine to Alabama the tex
tile workers are sweating in mis-
cry which can scarcely be surpassed
in any other industry. Whether it
be in cotton, in silk or in wool man
ufacture, whether in the dye works
of Paterson or in the knitting mills
of New York City, whether in the
carpet mills of Philadelphia or in
the silk throwing mills in the an
thracite, everywhere the wage
slaves in all branches Of this big
and important industry are seeing
worsening of their conditions.

vast masses of the one million unor-
ganized textile workers it has never
attempted to reach.
The call for a new union comes
like a beacon of hope to all those
who are suffering in the textile
hells. With militant leadership,
the same leadership that conducted
the splendid fight made by the
wooden workers in Passaic two
years ago and is now in charge of
tie spirited battle being put up in
New Bedford and Fall River, with
such a leadership the workers feel
confident that their ranks will be
organized and modified for strug-

Pennsylvania is noted for its bru-
tality to workers. No state in the
entire United States is more callous
to the needs and miseries of its
wealth producers. This arises from
the fact that Pennsylvania is one
of the most productive of the states
and that its productivity has passed
into the hands of a few mighty
oligarchs, who, in their race for the
surplus wealth produced by the
workers, have thrown other consid-
erations to the winds.
Children in Mills and Factories.
In the competition for mass pro-
duction and a cheapening of the ar
ticles produced in the mills and fac
tories of the state, Notwithstanding
that there is child labor law in
the state, many young boys and
girls are employed in the many dan
gerous occupations where machinery
of the most massive and dangerous
type is used. Thousands of these
young workers are forced, through
the poverty of their parents, to lie
outright and falsify their age when
they apply at the mill or factory
for work. Where these young work
ers have been employed, under such
circumstances, the supreme court OF
the state has placed itself on record
against the children and in favor
of the employers.
Record of Capitalist Courts.
In 1927 there were Investigated
by the Bureau of Women and Chill
dren's Department of the Compen-
sation Board, BIB cases of accidents
to children under this illegal employ
ment. This represents 12 per cent
of the total accidents in the state.
Out of these, 258 were denied COM
pensation, which represents 70 per
cent of the cases Investigated by
the bureau under a special investi-
gator.
This means that one half of those
| injured whose cases were lnvestl-
gated could not get any compensa-
ton when they went into the courts
and sued the employer. The supreme
court of the state denied them com
pensation.

city Of Greater. Pittsburgh and the
number of men, women and children
it employs can be impaired by re-

ago, and it would not do at all for a respec-
table gentleman like Mr.. Woodward Cor the
Reverend Thomas, then preaching the gos-
pei of Jesus to the fashionable Brick Pres
byterian church, to have anything to do
with that.
Since then the flames of struggle have
separated the revolutionary elements of the
socialist party of that day from the yellow
dross which is the socialist party today. The
socialist party has sunk to the level of con-
tempt for the working class, and the gum
shoe men of Washington smile upon it since
it has ceased to be of the working class and
has begun it's role of open strikebreaking
and belligerent support of the capitalist sys-
tenn.
In 1918 Mr. Woodward could not possibly
have been member of the same party with
Ruthenberg, and with the Debs who declared
himself "Bolshevik" and took ten years
sentence to Atlanta prison.
But all that has long ago been laughed
to DEATH" continues Mr.. Woodward. Il am
not only supporter in this campaign OF
Thomas and Maurer, but l socialist of
the deepest dye. l am one of those optimists
who believe that humanity is capable of get
ting rid of wolfish greed and dirt and poverty
and war. Yet my books read in the
most respectable homes. Even members of
the stock exchange write nice admiring
letters"
And "Comrade' Woodward now will find
pleasant diversion in preaching down at the
working class that humanity Capitalist
society "is capable of getting rid of wolfish
greed and dirt and poverty and by preach
ing that capitalist humanity can get rid of
:. war;" he will be very useful and ''respec-
table" to the same imperialists who are pre-
pairing feverishly for the coming world war;
and who need the Kelloggs and also the Rev.
erend Thomases and the Woodwards to film
fam the working class with illusions that
there is to be no war. Mr.. Woodward adds
his voice to the chorus of Hillquits, Bergers
and Boncours who chant in unison that it is
not necessary to overthrow the capitalist
system.
"Gumshoe Pete from Washington" will
not bother you, Mr.. Woodward; he will be
ready at all times to cooperate with you
while revolutionary workers struggle and
starve, go to JAIL and fight to transform the
next "War to End War" into revolutionary
struggle for the establishment of the rule
of the only class that can and will abolish
capitalist greed and poverty and war.
Mr.. Woodward, shake hands with Mr..
Glmshoe Pete; you're in the socialist party
now.

Told You So

THERE is a rather healthy rebel
lion in the ranks of the social
democratic party of Germany over
the action of the socialist ministers
of the Imperial Republic in approx
ing the outlay of $20,000,000 for
cruisers. Prior to the elections, the
socialists promised to "outlaw" war
and devote the money that their
capitalist political opponents would
spend on war preparations on well
fare work and unemployment. The
fact is that the social-democratic
party of Germany stands for i'm
perialism as firmly as the most ex-
IRENE fascist group.
THOSE who have followed the ac-
tions of the British Labor Party
ministers when Macdonald was
premier will not be surprised that
the German socialists favor build
ing big navy to protect the inter
ests of German imperialism. Mac
Donald sanctioned the building Of
five new cruisers and there was lit
tie more than peep of protest from
the liberals and pacifists in Eng
land and other countries, the very
people who howl because the work
ingclass government of the Soviet
Union maintains powerful prole-
tartan military and naval force for
the defense of the revolution.
kDVICES from Berlin indicate that
IA the masses of the social-demo-
cratic party have been aroused to
action by this fresh act of treachery
of their leaders. Several meetings
of socialist workers were held at
which motions demanding the resig-
nation of the socialist ministry were
passed. This is good sign. There
is mo hope for a successful strug-
gle against capitalism in@any Euro
pean country until the masses break
away from the socialists and join
the Communist Party.
ACCORDING to a headline, Prince
n Charles of Belgium is the work.
ing peoples pet The prince likes
to drive an engine, work in railroad
shops and coal mines and tinker
with motor cars. This should more
than compensate the Belgian work
