Anti mperialists

who was arrested the same day that
Paul Crouch and John Trumbull
were taken up for organizing a
Communist League, knows imperial
ism and life in imperialist armies
completely. He made his lectures
interesting by citing personal OBJ
servations and experiences.
When arrested at Hawaii, Steele
vas in the Fort Hospital, Schofiel
barracks, with an injured shoulder.
The fact that he was in the hos
pital when the formation of the
Communist League was announced
saved him from a sentence of prob
ably forty years, such as Crouch
vas first given.
Note From Crouch.
After arrest, as measure of per-
secution. Steele was put in the in
sanity ward, stripped naked and
watched continually by sentry sta
toned inside the door. Neverthe-
less, he got message from Crouch
and Trumbull. who were in the gen.
eral prison. 1t was passed through
a hole in the wall.
When his shoulder healed he was
sent to cell in his regimental bar
racks, where he saw the spy, Cor
poral Fisher, who was being used
to frame the others. He said, eff
| get close enough to him there will
be one less corporal" and for that
was put in the general prisoners
barracks and followed by one SEN
try with a shotgun and a corporal
with a pistol whenever taken any
where after that.
After t65 days an investigation
cleared him of charges, but he per-
ceived plot to frame him up as
Pershing was framed. Pershing
was given a five-year sentence.
Fight to Escape.
Steele realized he had to do some
thing to get away, and went Sab
sent without leave" for two months.
When he returned to duty, he was
put on guard, and met Crouch and
Trumbull who told him they were
being defended by the international
Labor Defense, of which he had not
yet heard.
To protect himself from frame
up by the officers, Steele collected
proof that some officers were pros
tituting their wives for $25 night.
Steele tried to get discharged and
was refused by Colonel Mitchell. He
told Mitchell to go to hell, and wrote
an article on army life to the Daily
Worker. He was at once arrested
for this, and about a month later
discharged.
The eN-soldier used his discharge
money to trail the spy, Fisher,
whose real name he found to be
either Goldensmicht or Golden
schoon. Fisher was sent to the u.
S, after his perjury against Trum-
bull. Fisher gave him the slip in
Detroit. Fisher had already told
him enough to show that he had
lied at the trial.
After doing what he could for
Crouch and Trumbull, imprisoned
in Alcatraz. Steele began to tour
for the Anti-Imperialist League.
He has vast fund of information
collected from over 10 army posts
and will soon have an article or ar
ticles on army life in the Daily
Worker.

Brags of IL Victims in
Prison Cells

HAVANA, Cuba, March g.
Promising a STABLE government" to
foreign interests in Cuba, President
Gerardo Machado today announced,
in an interview with representatives
of the press, that the prosecutions
recently resumed against the Cuban
revolutionary workers and their
leaders will continue undated.
After relating that twelve of the
victims seized in the recent police
terror are in prisons awaiting long
term sentences, the Butcher" as
the president is known to the Cuban
working class. declared that the
sentence of death "would not be
asked against them. That would be
too severe sentence even for their
attempted treason" Their treason"
being that they defied his tyranny.
Referring to the relations between
Cuba and the government of the
United States to which Machado, at
the time of his election promised
that if he was put in office there
would be no more strikes in Cuba,
the Butcher said. Scuba and the
United States understand each per-
fectly as far as their governments
are concerned"
Machado further implied that the
secret police were preparing new
wholesale arrests of the workers and
their leaders. It IS his intention to
try to wipe out all opposition on
the part of the growing revolution
airy movement among the Cuban
working class and poor peasants.
Machado's meek figure is ridicul-
Gus: there are MANY more than
twelve prisoners in the vaults of
the Butchers fortress prisons tho
many of his victims go in never to
come out again.

more and more into the general
crisis of world capitalism.
On the basis of this situation the
class struggle nthe United States
is growing sharper, the technical
revolution being carried out in the
United States, the huge trustifica-
ton and naturalization is leading
to "murderous speedup of labor to
an unparalleled exhaustion of human
power" provides the basis for
greater struggles on the part of
the proletariat, for the increasing
rehabilitation of the masses and its
leftward current, opens up perspec-
tives for the development of mass
Communist Party in the United
States.
Degree of Sterilization.
The estimation of sterilization of
the third postwar period is beconl-
ing a central question of issue with
in the Communist International since
the congress. This was shown by
the recent discussions within the
Presidium of the Communist Inter
national, in the German Party as
well as in all sections of the Com
munist international. The presidium
correctly rejected the viewpoint of
Humbert Droz and Sera as being in
conflict with the viewpoint of the
Sixth Congress, and must reject
every viewpoint which sees greater
harmony within the capitalist sys-
tenn, which challenges the concep-
ton of the transient character of
sterilization, the growing precarious-
ness of the sterilization as was well
brought out in the recent speech of
Comrade Stain before the presidium
of the CT.
The events since the world con-
gress have all confirmed this estim-
alton of sterilization. The struggle
in the Ruhr and LODI, the begin
ming offensive struggles of the work
ing class in the United States, the
increasing role of the Communist
Party in the United States as the
leader of mass struggles are proof
of the correctness If the viewpoint
of the Sixth World Congress.
Tactics During Third Period.
The tactics of the Communist In
ternational follows from this estim-
alton of the third postwar period.
Social reformism becomes a greater
menace in this period.
The central task IN this period is
the fight against the growing war
danger. The necessity Tor linking
up all our activities with this CEN
trial demand, the treacherous 1ole of
the social democracy in its close CO.
operation with the bourgeoisie COM
pels modification Of the united
front tactic, not its rejection, but
modification of it's form, for the
necessity of adopting the slogan Of
"the united front from below" neces-
States the sharpening up of the in
dependent role of the Communist
Party as leader of the masses. In
the present period the fight for the
masses becomes leading slogan in
each of the sections of the Commu-
mist International. The necessity of
fighting for the influence among the
masses against the social democracy,
against the influence of social re-
formists, both its Right wing" and
its LEFT wing; (the LEFT" phrase
ology of a section of social democ-
racy is of particular danger in all
countries.) In the United States we
see this in the maneuvers of the So
cialist party in the so-called anti
Woll movement and in the formation

borough detective, and Thomas
Blake, Inspector. coaxed on by Lee
M. Hutchins, l. Il. T. lawyer, denied
that they had beaten SCHNEIDER. DR..
kennard, medical examiner, and DR..
Kearney of Lincoln Hospital, also
coached by Hutchins, related that
they found no signs of beating on
the body.
Wulf, who asserts that he is only
too glad to testify, was not called
by the district attorneys office dur
ing the hearing yesterday afternoon.
After the district attorneys office
had announced that the case was
closed for the day, the reporter of
the Daily Worker learned that Wulf
had been called to the district at
torney's office at five o'clock yester-
Gay afternoon. He was evidently
drilled for hours in an effort to
make him withdraw his testimony
for three hours later Wulf had not
yet returned to his home.
Wulf states that about 7 o'clock
yesterday morning he followed a
man into the turnstile at Prospect
Ave. station, and apparently for no
reason at all saw two men jump on
SCHNEIDER. One of them, Henry
Sherlock, beat him with his fists
violently and then led him into the
change booth. There they stripped
him of nearly all his clothes, look
ing for evidence, beating him when
he offered resistance. Wulf testi-
fies that they found nothing but
$40 and some change. When Schin-
der attempted to call up his home
to notify his wife, the detective
pulled the receiver from him and
hit him on the head a few times
with it.
Wulf appealed to city policemen
who had been attracted by the cries
to defend SCHNEIDER from the plain
clothes men, but they refused, say
ing that he should "mind his own
business" The I. R. T. detective
told Wulf to "take off his glasses"
and that he would beat him, too.
Wulf told him to go ahead and ar
rest him, but the thug did nothing.
The city policemen later testified
that they had seen no beating and
Police Commissioner Whalen de-
clares that he has nothing to do
with the case. The detective also
said at the hearing that he found
II slugs in Schindler's pockets, but
was unable to produce any. The
|. R. T. detectives are commissioned
by the state of New York and are
raid by the company, functioning in
somewhat the same way as the coal
and iron police of Pennsylvania.
1t is believed that the I. R. T. is
doing all in its power to bury the
case with the body, with the help
of the embarrassing process of the
district attorneys office.
When Mrs. SCHNEIDER. small and
thin woman. was told of the death of
her husband. she cried: "He did not
kill himself; they killed him."
SCHNEIDER worked steadily for seven
years in one shop and was on his
way to work when he was beaten
by the detectives. He leaves three
small children, the youngest six
months, the oldest six years. The
family is known throughout the
apartment house on Home St.,
Bronx, as a working family,
barely getting along, but leading a
happy existence. There is absolutely
no reason for SCHNEIDER having
killed himself other than that he
was so badly beaten on the head
that he lost his mind.

Chapter 10 A WISE DUCHESS

For moment none moVeC or spoke; then Captain Despard laugh ed softly.
 And now, my lady, if you are ready?" the captain suggested.
 Helen stood awhile as if lost in thought, then, turning suddenly, gave Sir Richard her hand; said she:
 "The Duchess, sir, bade me say she expects you at the Moat House, and will be happy to welcome you whenever you will, and indeed-so shall II" Then she made him a stately curtsey, stopped to kiss lit tie Shuri and was gone, with Cap tain Despard attendant. Master" said old Truffeni, you as stands up for the poor folk when us meets again, mebbe the poor folk stands up for you-ay, ay, for death shall be all about ye; ah, and I sees troubles creeping on ye, wi dangers a-many, but love shall come also, and by it shall ye live, for love is strongest of all"
 "Love?,' he repeated.

 "Fie, Helen!" murmured Angela. Remember how wickedly we have misjudged the unfortunate gentle man, how cruelty we have wounded his sensibilities."
 Say, rather his detestable pride ? cried my lady
 And shure," quoth the Duchess pride is always so very detistable in other folk"
 And alas" sighed Angela, shak- ing her pretty head, "oh me, the poor gentleman so soon to diel"
 Die, child-to die? Is it Sir ] Richard Guyfford you mean?"
 Indeed, Helenl They say he is certainly doomed"
 "But-two gentlemen may surely fight without killing each other" ! "Ay, ayl" nodded the Duchess. "Thrue enough me dear. some gen. tlemen may but these won't; shure here will be murderous business, and nothing but dith itself shall prevent 'em killing each other" Nay" sighed Angela. If either kill t other, 'tis poor Sir Richard must die"
 Heavens above!" exclaimed my lady. And why must you be so sure, little fool?" ' "Nay-why, Helen, oh, my dear why so angry with poor me?" cried Angela, amazed at Helen's sudden gust of passion.
 Because, miss, if anyone be kill ed, twill be all your doingI" Mine? Oh, Helen! Oh. my dear est!" walled Angela. ''How-how am I to blame?" For writing your three times &C., cursed letters, for mixing up your villains" cried Helen, between her snapping white teeth. Whereat Angela bowed meek, pretty head and wept softly.
