The U. s. marines are the only
supporters of an impOster who calls
himself president of Haiti" who
was elected by nobody but the rifles
of the marines and who is busy
bootlicker of American imperialism
and its agents great or small. His
name is Luis Borno, and he is so
cordially detested by all Haitians
that his presidency" would end
very suddenly were it not for the
presence of the marines. So much
has been stolen and looted from the
public treasury that the customs
employees are suffering in their
wages.
In addition the dictatorial school
system has caused a strike of TO-
900 students-all the way from kim
dergarten to university students.
All attempts at compromise have
failed, and the school strike con-

Germany Had Scheffer
US Its Knickerbocker;
Both Liars; Both Spies

BERLIN, Dec. 5.-The "Berliner
Tageblatt" publishes a report, ac-
cording to which the Soviet Govern
ment has refused permission for
Paul Scheffer, the Moscow Core
spondent of the "Berliner Tage-
blatt," to return to the Soviet Union.
Scheffer is at the moment in Ger
many. The ''Berliner Tageblatt"
uses this occasion to let loose a wild
anti-soviet article about the Tcheka,
secret executions, prison horrors
and all the rest of the trappings of
normal anti-soviet propaganda.
In this article the chief editor,
Theodor Wolff writes, inter ALA,
"All strangers who came to Mos
COW, Germans, Americans, English
men and Japanese, went first of all
to Scheffer."
The "Rote Fahne" suggests that
the reason for Scheffers expulsion
may be sought iii just this fact, and
declares that Scheffer's activity had
developed into a sort of political
and economic espionage. The furi-
Gus anti-soviet ISLANDERS of the
"Berliner Tageb!att" were nothing
but a confirmation of the correct
ness OF LIE ,oOVItC decisIOn-

section Of the employees trade
union has actually no more unem-

(the new budget Year, the lower
payed categories of workers and en-
employees will ge an increase in
wages. Besides, with the approach
of the cold weather the workers

ployees and workers fuel on long
term credit. Our country has passed
now to the five day-working system
i. e. we are working four days and
we enjoy a rest each fifth day.
Dear comrades, l can't tell you
what enthusiasm, what ecstasy
reigned during the general assem-
bly, of our trade-union members, at
which the question of the uninter-
rupted week and the seven hours
working day Including one-half
hour for lunch) was discussed. This
measure was unanimously adopted
and approved for the successful
realization of the five-year plan,
despite the fact that according to
the decision taken by our govern
mental bodies the uninterrupted
week had to be introduced only
from the first Of December. But
from the first of October all en-
ployees passed over to the inter-
rupted week, It is obvious that for
you, who are living in capitalistic
countries, this will be astonishing.
But you must consider the immense
difference existing between the EN-
ployees Of the U. S. S. r. and those
who are exploited by the bourgeoisie.

Packing House Raise
Means Naturalization
Far Worse for Men
(Bg a Worker Correspondent

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (By MaiD.-
Taking effect the first of the year,
Chicago packing houses gave EN-
ployees a raise from one to four
cents an hour. This is in Chicago
only. But what good is one to four
cents an hour going to do? That
means from 10 cents to 40 cents
day. The packers find they can af-
ford this raise because they have
installed much new machinery and
layed off groups of men, and those
remaining get the raise--but they
must work all the harder and faster
to keep up with the machine and
slaYe-driving bosses.
The other plants got no raise, but
the same new machines were in
stalled as in Chicago plants--so
hard labor and faster will. be the
rule in these other plants.
The packers give the one to four
cents raise and gain hundreds Of
dollars. One reason for the raise is
because the packers see the Com
munist Party is making fast and
steady Roadway in Chicago, and so
the bosses are trying to blind the
men by giving them raise.
Look what is happening in. the
South. Let US all wake up and crawl
out from beneath the heels Of the
bosses and step on them from now
on. Put them in a working mans
harness like we are in and make
them like it.
Onward to a Communist packing
house union. Defend the workers in
the South and throw over the capt.
talist yoke that holds US down.

"There has necessarily been some

Street political head, sweeping aside
as unimportant the millions of I'M

they speed up the workers left on

to his new fascist political appara-
tus, chat temporary speeding up to
absorb otherwise idle labor brings
great subsequent benefits and no

vitation to speed up the worker on
the job to the limit on reduced
wages.
Handing the 400 capitalists

the democratic" government in
their function as a grand fascist
council, Hoover said:
1T is request from the gov

upon the business and economic
organization of the country. The
task is one fitted to its fine initia-

William Butterworth, president of
the U. S. Chamber of Commerce
was given the leading task in the
new fascist political body.
Hoover will step aside and permit
the u. S. Chamber of Commerce
with it's 400 leading exploiters of
labor a free hand in their planned
attacks on the standard of living
of the American workers.
The heads of the new fascist
organism are the direct exploiters
Of the American workers. Their
new state machine will be used to
grind more work and profits out of
the American workers and to at

The United Fruit Company of

fruit trust in the world, has taken
over its only serious competitor, the
