ments OF all classes of society. The best
description OF this element, and one that, with
slight variations, can be applied today to the
so-called rank and file of the corrupt city
political machines, is to be found in "The
Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte,'
by Marx, where he says in describing the
SUM proletarian Society of December TO-"
created by Louis, the Little:

means of support and questionable antecedents

The Rothstein case is of Importance to the
working class only inasmuch as it exposes
the class enemies aligned against us in the
camp of the old parties. No intelligent
worker will get excited over the political
fight between the office of District Attorney

and Tammany's dope ring, representing the
democratic party. Instead he will align him

the year 1927. Even the "Berliner
Tageblatt" has to admit that the
average dividend of the textile stock
companies for the year 1927
amounted to 81 per cent. Further
more, between the middle of Oc-
tober, 1927, and the beginning of
September of this year wholesale
pieces of textile goods have been
forced up by 1872 per cent. Food
stuffs, too, have risen by Is per
cent.
The wages Of workers alone re-
main on the old level. In the
Munich Gladbach textile district the
wage per hour has remained from
October 18th, 1928, for men: 10 to
So pfennig, for women: 16 to AZ
pfennig. However. 95 per cent of
the textile workers are on piece
rates, and on the wage per hour of
SO pfennig they must get 10 per
cent supplement, making II pfennig
per hour as standard piece rate.
The greater part of the piece work
ers, and especially the women, do
not, however, get even this II pfen-
mig rate (throstle spinning mills pay
60 pfennigs, cotton weaving mills
81 pfennigs, silk weaving mills 81
pfennigs per hour as the highest
piece rates.. The highest piece
rate may not exceed 81 pfennigs
per hour.

fury limited on his way to deliver a consign-
ment of dope tn Chicago customers, is 81 in
teresting political document, inasmuch as it
reveals, according to reports, direct connec-
ton between the upper strata of society and
the slum strata, all united in one New Tam
many fold. Tammany is the classic example
of the modern capitalist political machine.
1t is duplicated more or less exactly by the
Ware machine in Philadelphia, the Thompson
machine in Chicago, the Mellon machine in
Pittsburgh and even has it's counterpart in
such smaller cities as Jersey City, where the
Hague machine rules. The chief character
istic of such machines is the unity of the
biggest capitalists at the top of the social
scale with the so-called slum proletariat at
the bottom. Such machines serve the in
terests of the big capitalists against the
working class, through police terror, injunc-
tions, militia, gangsters, in strikes and polit-
ical demonstrations. The lower strata of such
machines serve as precinct and ward commit
teemen during election campaigns and on
election days steal or stuff the ballot boxes
so that the political agents of the big capt.
taists win. At the same time such elements
organize various types of vice rings and the
"kings" of such outfits cater especially to the
depraved appetites of the idle rich Roth
stein and others of his ilk who live in the
same luxurious hotels with the nabobs and
associate with them are nothing more than
glorified panderers.
In many sections of the working class
movement there prevails misconception of
what constitutes this Stun proletariat. Some
imagine it is composed of the most exploited,
most miserable and oppressed of the working
class. This is not correct. The slum prole-
tariat is recruited from the degenerated ele-

By CHRISTA.

During the last few months a
wave of strikes has passed over the
world, marking the aggravation of
the inner contradictions in capital
ism and the growth of the revolu-
tionary forces. The lockout-out of
the textile workers on the Lower
Rhine constitutes an important sec
ton of these fights. The textile
workers of Rhineland- Westphalia
make fifth of the total number of
textile workers in Germany. Ac-
cording to the figures of June, 1925,
there were in Rhineland- Westphalia
about 10000 textile mills employ
ing about 226,750 persons, 81 per
cent of whom were women. Ac-
cording to the report of the Munich
Gladbach Chamber of Industry and
Commerce, dated April Goth, 1928,
the textile industry of that district
has developed to the following ex-
tent:
1913: $40 mills, 35,273 workers,
100000 spindles and 10000 looms.
1927: 1913 mills, 38,343 workers,
100000 spindles and $4,000 looms.
Profits Rise; Wages Cut.
The reports of the employers con-
corning bad business, with, which
they tried to justify the mass lock-
out of 10000 textile workers in
MunichGladbach and Rheydt and
of 5000 textile workers in Duren,
are greatly exaggerated. Accord
ing to the data of the National Sta
tistical Department, the net profit
of the German textile stock com
panies rose from 43.7 million marks
in the year 1926 to 1877 millions il

can workers will have a living ex-
ample of what Trotskyism is. For
the present the counter-revolution-
list Of week ago, Eastman, is at
present the mouthpiece of Cannon.
The two supporters are peddling
around the book by Eastman, "The
New Situation In Russia" and it is
with the aid of Eastman that Can
non wants to build his new party.
Truly there could be no better COM
bination than the bourgeois East
M and the self-seeker, the rene
gade Cannon.
The book of Eastman has become
the weapon in the hands of Cannon
to demoralize ideologically the minds
of the Communist Party members.
The book of Eastman, which is filled
with the bourgeois democratic theo-
ries and other bourgeois philosophic
rot, has become the theoretical wea-
pom of James P. Cannon.
The book of Eastman is filled with
nothing but attacks on the Soviet
Union. In his preface to the book,
Eastman deplores the fact that the
Russian Communist Party controls
the Soviet government, that there is
no freedom of press, etc. No one
should be surprised at this activity
of Cannon. He is performing his
historic role as an agent of the
bourgeoisie in the ranks of the work
ing class. While the socialists and
the labor misleaders are bourgeois
agents in the ranks of the non-party
workers Cannon tries to be the bour-
geois agent in the ranks of the Com
munist workers. His historic mission
is to demoralize the mainstay Of the
proletarian revolution, the Commun-
list Party in America. At this time
when the capitalists are preparing
a war against the Soviet Union his
work is to discredit the Soviet Union
in the eyes Of the most revolution
airy workers in this country. His agi-
tation against the Soviet Union, his
demands, his methods do not differ
from those of the bourgeoisie and
the social democrats. If you want
to know what will be the attitude of
Cannon on certain questions, listen
to what lie socialists have to say.
In short, the American Trotskyites
are the revolutionary" allies of the
bourgeoisie. The American Trotsky-
ties have become the Agitprop dept.
of the yellow socialists.

Darwin and
Gold in State
of Arkansas
Continued


From his headquarters in Little
Rock, Smith distributed throughout
Arkansas more than $4,000 pamph-
let's defending the theory of evolu-
ton, and protesting against the anti
evolution bill upon which the voters
were to decide in the election of
November 6. The roactionary ele-
ments protested; the mayor of the
city declared, "No atheist will be
permitted to maintain headquarters
in Little Rock, Arkansas, if 1 can
prevent it." But Smith continued
/ his educational campaign. He hung
I out large sign in front of his
headquarters declaring: Evolution
| Is true. The Bible is a lie. God is
n ghost" In court the judge read
aloud a municipal law forbidding
1.-THE use of gods name except in
I"veneration and worship" Then he
i commanded Smith to be sworn in.
Ath st Forbidden to Testify.
81 wish to affirm-not swear"
Smith said.
"You're an atheist!" exclaimed the
judge. "You don't believe in godw
Smith admitted the monstrous
accusation.
"Then you cannot be swornl" the
Judge said. "You cannot testify in
my court"
And the judge was legally cor
rect; for although most courts in
/ the United States permit an atheist
70 "affirm" instead of swearing, the
| Arkansas state constitution speci-
fically provides that "no person aOho
denies the being of a god shall hold
any office in the civil departments
| of this state, nor be competent to
testify as a qoitness IN any court"
Subsequent laws do permit people to
"affirm" in Arkansas courts, but the
judge could disregard these laws be-
cause the constitution is the funda-
mental law of the state.
THUS Smith was not permitted to
speak or even answer questions
in his own defense. The judge found
him guilty of distributing atheistic
and "obscene" literature and fined
him S25. Smith refused to pay the
fine, and instead was sent to prison
for % days. In order to call public
attention to the fight against Ar
KANSAS religious reaction he went
on hunger strike lasting number
of days.
On November Is, Smith was
again arrested in Little Rock and
given the maximum sentence for
"blasphemy," a fine of 500 and
ninety days Imprisonment. As in
the previous case, he was forbidden
to testify in his own defense because
of his inability as an atheist to take
the oath required of witnesses. At
present he is released on bonds,
pending appeal to the higher court.

By M. CUSHING

Kansas City is the home town of
the slow-thinking J. P. Cannon Git
took him years to decide between
the Comintern and the Trotsky fac
tom.
Naturally in his own home town
Cannon has a few followers. There
is the sort of admiration for him on
the part of this handful of followers
which can be best characterized by
the typical "from-office-boy pres
ident" admiration. They knew Can
non when he was a Little Fellow
and he has risen to be member of
the Central Executive Committee of
the Communist Party. These people
very much the same as Cannon have
suddenly discovered that "Trotsky
is right"
$ A year or two years ago when
the Trotsky issue was so widely dis
cussed in our Party these people
spoke against Trotsky and voted
against Trotsky. What historic fact
changed the opinions of these peo-
pie? Have the predictions of Trot-
sky about Russia going back to cap
italism been realized? About the
Kulak taking over the government
in Soviet Russia? No. None Of these
things have taken place.
One thing however did take place.
The much-belated expulsion of Jim
Cannon took place, and it is from
Cannon that these people have
learnt that Trotsky was right.
Of course Cannon promises them
the victory of Trotskyism on an in
ternational scale. 1t is self-explana-
tory that people who now say that
wien they voted against Trotsky
years ago did not know what they
voted for, do not know any better
now. However, the Kansas City
group ~ CT the Cannonites are a
good example and expression of how
far Canon intends t. go against the
Party, against the Comintern and
against the Soviet Union. Even the
day after his expulsion Cannon de-
nounced Salutsky, Eastman and
Lore as counter-revolutionist and OPP
portunist right wingers.
OF course he did it in order to
catch a few naive comrades to follow
him. But hardly week has elapsed
since his expulsion when the local
supporters Of Cannon are already
engaged in campaigning for him.
II z do they do it? What methods
do they use? Only time will dis
c! = the full counter-revolutionary
substance of Cannonism. The Ameri-
