One hour during the daylight will be
the maximum time for both television
and picture broadcasting. It must
cease at pm. standard time and not
begin again until after IL pm.
After January ! the commission will
take up the problem better enabled to
cope with it by virtue of the expert
ments of the two months Of trial in the
broadcast band. The interference
caused and the popularity of visual
transmission with the radio public will
be taken into consideration. along with
an Interpretation of the obligations of
the United States under the Interna-
tional Radio Telegraph Convention Of
1927, regarding the presence on the
broadcast band of any other than tele-
phonic transmissions.
The commissions action is of much
significance in the development of tele-
vision. 1t is almost certain that tele-
vision must go into the short-wave
spectrum eventually, because of the
severe space limitations in the broad
cast band, but experimenters with the
new radio art insist that to do this now
would seriously impede its development,
because it would be out of the reach of
practically all listeners and little would
be cleaned in the way of public re-
action. The commission has met the
issue by a compromise

CHANGES IN POSTAL RATES

Postage rates on nearly all classes
CT mail change July I, according TO
new tariff schedule received at the
local post office this week. The
greatest change etfectecl is on post
cards, which return to their old rate
of one cent, and on air mail which

more than fifty Fer cent reduction.
These rates are in accordance with
I'll act of congress passed. at the last

mail matter. The new rates are as
follows:
First class letters remain the same,
two cents per ounce, but private
mailing and post cards return to the
old rate of one cent each. The rate
on short paid or postage due mail is
raised, penalty being assessed.
Second class-Newspapers and
magaziries-mailed by persons other
than the publishers go for one-half
cent per ounce, up to eight ounces.
The third class rate remains the
same, one and one-half cent for each
two ounces, but circulars mailed In
quantities, un6er permit, may 60 at
one cent each.
The rate on parcel post remains
the same on the first three zones,

lower than the old rate, dropping
ore cent On each parcel mailed for
points in the 4, S, 6, aad 8 zone.

The daily worker., 1928-11-12
By HARRISON GEORGE.

An analysis of the General Motors
cash and stock celebration of Hoo
ver's election exposes. the enormous
profits being wrung out of the
workers by ordinary wage slavery
plus the most extreme rationaliza-
tion and speed-up of production.
The present common stock is
worth at par $25 share, of which
there are 17,400,000 shares. The
regular quarterly dividend on these
shares has been $1.25 per share, or
$5 year, which is 20 per cent.
This year, besides the above SIS
per share paid in dividends, the di-
rectors announced that on the pre-
sent uartcr, the stockholders
would get an extra dividend of $3.50
share, making for the year $3.50
dividend on each share of $25 of
common stock now held. This raises
the profit from 20 to 30 per cent
Of the par value, S25, on each share.
This is prosperity, indeed--for the

out of this is exactly nothing. They
get wages, but this is pure cream
surplus value made by them, but
which they do not get.
But that is not all. The directors
announce that very soon the present
S25 shares will be split up into two
and-a-half shares of a par value of
$10 each. Now, while this seems
quite innocent, since $40 goes into
S25 two and half times, yet what
goes along with this announcement
looks quite different. For it is
stated that hereafter, the new $40
shares will get dividend regularly
of SIS share per year, or so per
cent pure profit.
This project of paying IS dividend
annually on each $40 share Of the
new stock, thus means that the
st3ckholder who now holds shares at
s25 each, will be paid $3.50 year
djMdend instead Of IS as at present.

Trying to Resurrect Dead Horse
(Bertram WOlfe)

During my recent stay in Denver, Colorado, l had
opportunity to make first-hand study of the
socialist party of Colorado. The words with which
caption this article do not originate with me, but
from the lips of precisely one-third of the
membership of the Colorado socialist party and
pronounced at public "mass" meeting held under
the auspices of that organization.
The socialist party of Colorado has member
ship of three; the youngest of whonis so years
of age. The three members are 1) Charming
Sweet, millionaire, father of democratic ex-governor
Sweet of Colorado, who, account of his enormous
wealth feels moved to donate exactly $40 year to
the defunct party of which he is member; (2)
George Faulkner, ex-Communist, who left the Work
Party in 1924 because he for La Toilette
and the Workers Party refused to support La Fol
lette; (9) Mr.. Brown (altho l know the of
every member of the socialist party of Colorado the
initials of of the three has slipped my mind).
The eldest of the three is Claiming Sweet, whose
age must be around 80, and the youngest is Brown
whose age be conservatively estimated around
co.
When Norman Thomas arrived in Denver and
found little handful of old fogies and respectabes
calling itself meeting, he deeply chag-
rined Faulkner, chairman of the meeting, did
not make matters better when he announced "What
we trying to do here is to resurrect dead
horse" Norman Thomas confded to bystander
that, "The G. A. R. is great institution, but you
can't build socialist local with it."
When Maurer scheduled to come to Denver
the grand S. P. of Colorado was ignored in the
Church appealed to to get sort of a
crowd together. Still the alleged meeting
which took place in Grace Church distinguished
by anything but attendance. And Faulkner
very bitterly protested that the socialist party of
Colorado was being superseded" by the church
ganization.
The two socialist presidential candidates, in their
desperation, demanded that some young fellow be
dug up, and finally young fellow dug up who
claimed to be sympathetic with the socialist party
and ready to join This accession of 25 per cent to
the membership and of much young blood dis
mayed the youngest member of the socialist party
of Colorado and Brown declared in the hearing of
the young man, in such manner that it got to
his ears, 81 have for those new-fangled So
cialists who take up socialism a fad" Result:
20 per cent of the membership scared away and
the socialist party remained intact
report the above to the Daily Worker merely
because it is symbol of what the socialist party
has become and concrete example of what the New
Leader is haing the revival Of the socialist

stock besides, with all it's future pro-
tits guaranteed by capitalist rule.
Small wonder that capitalists believe
that the system is the best of all
possible systems!
Nor is this all. Even under the
present dividends, the stockholders
are getting only about go per cent
Of the net profits, as the corporation
has held to the policy of retaining
about 40 per cent as a reserve. So
the 30 per cent cash dividends
'fS750) paid out this year to stock
holders, represents only 60 per cent,
or the actual net profit of so per
cent ($12.50) on the capitalization
residing in each $25 share.
Why They Celebrate.
In announcing that $3.50 regular
dividends will, in the future, be paid
for each $25 now held, either the
corporation intends to hold nothing
in reserve of the net profits taken,
or intends to make still more pro-
fits by increased exploitation of the
workers; and it is a glit-edge bet
that it will be increased exploita-
tion.
That is why the General Motors

they know he will use the power of
the government to suppress the

Eastman's Distortions.
There is nothing of this sort in

out by all means to convince the
reader that the oppositionists were

and trickery and into his elaborate

buttress his arguments. Many of

a different impression.
For instance, why has Mr.. East

dent of November 7, at the textile
factory where Trotzky was great
favorite? Suddenly without warning
he appeared before the workers
forming in line for the tenth ami
versary parade. Cheers greeted his
first sentences glorifying the Oc-
tober Revolution. But as he passed
to an attack on the party there were
murmurs of dissent, then protests,
then shouts: "Stop it" Trotzky

only for South Africa but for the Solid South
of the United States of America as well.
The same colonial thesis of the Sixth
World Congress of the Communist Interna-
tional reads
in those regions in the South where the
Negroes live in compact masses it is necessary
to proclaim the slogan of self-determinatiOn
for the Negroes. radical reorganization
of the agrarian structure of the Southern
States is one of the basic tasks of the revolu-
ton The Negro Communists should make
clear to the Negro workers and farmers that
only their close union with the white prole-
tariat and their common struggle against the
American bourgeoisie gain them freedom
from barbaric exploitation, that only VIC
torious proletaran revolution fully and
definitely solve the agrarian and national
questions of southern United States in the
interests of the oppressed masses of the Negro
population of the country"
The Communist International is for the
slogan of national self determination for the
Negroes in the South, where the Negro
toilers live in compact masses, exploited and
oppressed by the white plantation-owners
and capitalists
The Workers (COmmunist) Party of Amer
lea in the election campaign just past came
out openly and unreservedy for the right of
national self-determination for the Negroes.
National self-determination means the right
to establish their own Negro State, if they
choose to do so. The Communist Party de-
clares that it respects the decision of the
Negro masses about the form of realization
of this self-determination. At the same time
it is the duty of the Negro comrades to EN-
phasize the solidarity of the Negro and white
workers and to make clear to the Negro
masses that only a victorious proletarian
revolution can fully and definitely solve the
national question in the Solid South in favor
of the oppressed Negro masses.
1t would be dangerous illusion to think
that the realization of national self-deter-
mination for the Negroes can be secured un-
der the present relations of power under cap
italism. National self-determination for the
Negro race can be realized only in the course
of the proletarian revolution. 1t would be a
major mistake to believe that in imperialist
America-in the country Of the most power
full, most centralized and concentrated in
dustries-there can be any other revolution
but proletarian revolution.
The Communist Party is the advocate of
full racial, social and political equality for the
Negro race, and pledges itself to fight for
the right of national sef-determination for
the Negroes in the South. But the Negro
masses must understand that their racial and
economic liberation can be achieved only in
alliance with the working class-whites and
blacks alike-and as a product of the vic
torious proetarian upheaval
