WALKER TAKES
HAND IN DEATH
OF R0THSTEIN
New York Mayor Rum0red
Dissatisfied With Murder
Investigation

New York, Nov. 14.-(AP)-
While police continued today their
apparently fruitless efforts to find
the slayer of Arnold Rothstein,
gambler, rumors were circulated
that Mayor Walker had asked the
resignation Of Police Commissioner
Charles Warren.
Attaches of the mayors office re-
fused to comment, but it is known
that Mayor Walker is dissatisfied
with the police handling of the case
and has instigated his own investi-
cation of the fatal shooting, which
occurred a week ago Sunday night.
The commissioner denied that he
and the mayor had had any dis
agreement or that he intended to
resign. He said he was satisfied
with the handling of the case and
that he expected an arrest before
the week is over.
The mayor and the commissioner
conferred Monday regarding police
matters and it was after this confer
cnce that Mr.. Walker issued his
statement expressing dissatisfaction
with the case. 1t was said that the
,mayor felt that in his own investi-
cation he had learned more about
the case than Commissioner Warren
had revealed to him.

an office half buried among dozens
of others in a rambling temporary
building young man directs the

He is Knowles A. Ryerson, in

the rate of about 1000 members q

Working with Ryerson, in the
broad expanse of the globe, are men
twice his age; but he is no youth in
the knowledge Of the task he per-
forms. He came to Washington
from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where
he served the native government as
a plant pathologist. Prior to that he
assisted an agricultural survey Of
Palestine.
In a broad sense the agricultural
explorer is as old as the history OF
men. Desiring better foods, mar

The modern agricultural explorer
however, is development of the last
quarter of century, and came into
being in the United States depart
ment of agriculture. He goes out
into the little. known parts of for
eign countries to bring back new
crop plants. He must be thorough
patient with endless detail, and
ready to face physical danger.
During rs years these explorers
have brought to the United State
74,6S5 plant immigrants that have
found a definite place in agriculture
There is hardly farm crop on the
continent that does not trace its an

Capitalist Tool

In answer to an editorial in the
April 18th Bronx Home News, criti-
Ching the Lower Bronx section of the
Young Workers (Communist)
League, with headquarters at 715 E.
1873 Street, for protesting against
police interference at their anti-mili-
tarism street corner meeting last
week the League has sent the follow
ing statement to the editor Of the
Bronx Home News.
ITO the Editor of the Bronx
Home News.
Your editorial of April 18th, en-
titled "The Young Workers Protest"
makes it necessary for US to give re-
ply. The Young Workers Communist
League would be neglecting its his
torical duty if it did not answer this
bit of misleading of the working
class youth.
"Your entire attitude is a patron
izing one. You attempt to laugh it
off But if we are an organization
whose efforts are to be laughed off,
if we are the sort of an organization
about which no policeman would give
the proverbial three whoops in
hades,' then why, when we demon
strate in front of the Brooklyn Navy
Yard against Intervention in Nicara-
qua, are we dubbed and arrested?
"For the same reason that the
policeman in this particular case
wanted to stop this regularly con-
voked, verbally permitted, meeting.
Concerning our struggle against
military training in the colleges, you
say that discussion of that might
reasonably be left to the colleges and
their student bodies There are three
answers to that. Firstly, we have in
the Y. w. c. L. many students who
themselves spring from the working
class. These, then, even according to
your own argument have the reason
able right to take a stand against
the militarization of the youth in
the schools and colleges. Secondly, as
a young workers organization many
of our number would, in event of
joining the armed forces, have to
serve under those very students who
are now being trained to officer US
in attacks against young Nicaraguan
farmers and workers and the youth
of tother foreign countries. -

1t is no wonder that the socialist
party is being given permission to
use the radio to transmit its poison
to the American workers. While the
socialist party is thus enjoying the
courtesies and friendship of the worst
open-shoppers in the country, the
Communists are fighting on the
picket lines, are organizing the un-
organized, are leading strikes, are
violating injunctions en- masse, are
resisting wage cuts, are facing per-
secution of their press, The DAILY
WORKER-in short, are vigorous
militant participants in the class
struggle.
Here is the difference between the
Workers (Communist) Party and the
socialist party. The workers will
choose right. That is why our Party
is growing. That is why the socialist
party is dying.

with the coal diggers strike. To ask
for naturalization of the coal mines
by the Coolidge government, by the
Melons, the Fishers, and the
Schwabs, is to ask for support from
a hangman. But this is the role of
the socialist party today. Instead of
exposing the government for what it

Imperialism Endorsed.
There was a time when even the
opportunistic socialist party did not
dare endorse the League of Nations.
Now Mr.. Hillquit feels that his party
has made sufficient progress as a
full fledged member of the camp of
the enemies of the working class to
hand out bouquets even to the League
of Nations. The League of Nations
is held up by the socialist party be-
fore the workers as a panacea. On
this question, the socialist party is
even far to the right Of such weak
kneed, petty bourgeois politicians as
Borah, Norris and Shipstead. The
latter are opposed to the League of
Nations. They see in the League of
Nations an instrument of imperialist
aggression. Hillquit sees in the
League of Nations an agency of lib
GRAFTON of the colonial masses.
The extent to which the socialist
party is today dominated by capital
ist ideas is made painfully evident
by the remarks of Hillquit anent the
imperilist invasion of Nicaragua by
Wall Street troops. To quote the New
Leader, the mouthpiece of the deca-
dent socialist party, "The highlight
of the address came in his words on
the Nicaraguan adventure:
"'Of all the monstrosities per-

the most revolving. What is it that
we are doing in Nicaragua? If it is

| preamble of the union, the sections
referring to the class struggle and
socialism. Lewis machine also
amended the constitution of the
United Mine Workers to prosecute
workers engaged in coal digging.
Clearly, the vilest section of the
corrupt trade union bureaucracy is
setting the pace for and giving the
leadership to the socialist party.
What Lewis and his henchmen did
in 1927 to the constitution of the
United Mine Workers of America,
Hillquit, Berger, Thomas, Maurer
and company did to the last remnant
of socialist theology in their party
constitution few days ago. We may
confidently expect that the next time
the socialist party convention meets,
if there will be a next time for this
corpse, it will decree decisive mea-
sures against workers who, by choice
instead of by accident, came to this
country.
Blind to Class Conflicts.
The socialist party convention
didn't say a word about the activi-
ties of its party in the present sharp
class struggles. The socialist party
has no program for such decisive
battles of the workers as the 49,
months miners strike, the struggle
wave of textile strikes, the struggle
in the needle trades industry, the ris-
ing tide of discomfort in the railway
unions, and the movement for a gem
une labor party. We must give the
socialist party leadership credit for
keeping quiet about it's role in these
struggles. Insofar as it did anything
at all, it participated most valiantly
on the side of reaction and against
the workers.
All the socialist party convention
could say about the most important
strike in the history of the American
labor movement, the present miners
strike, is to call upon the strikebreak-
ing government, which has been issu-
ing hundreds of injunctions and evic-
ton orders against the miners, to
nationalize the coal industry That's
Hillquit's solution. This is Maurer's
panacea. Maurer has been signifi-
cantly silent about the miners strug-
gle, tho he is still president of the
Pennsylvania State Federation of
Labor, a body which one may natur-
