against the arrests, the increased
terror, the Baumes laws for the re-
organization of the legal system so
that it may proceed more ruthlessly,
more swiftly against labor. The
workers of New York must struggle
against the industrial speed-up and
long hours, company unions, against
the collaboration of the miserable
agents of the capitalist class, the
bureaucrats of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor and the socialist
party.
In the coming election campaign
the workers will be called upon to
rally to the banner of the Commun-
is Party that will put those de-
mands in the forefront of its cleo
ton struggle and will ruthlessly ex-
pose the capitalist parties, democrat
ic and republican, the socialist par
ty, the party of the petty bourgeoi-
sic, whose daily activities, whose
election platform are planks for the
support of the capitalist system.

Sports are an important part Of
the life of all countries, always
have been, from savagery on to the
present time. The working class is
the most important section of the
population of any modern country.
The working class participates in
sports in all countries, but how? In
a capitalist country the workers
part consists in paying admission,
the only exercise he gets out of a
field or track event is pushing
through the crowd, or waving his
one free arm and yelling alta
boy!"
Sport in capitalist countries is
capitalized. The players are hired,
The success or failure of a season is
not measured by the addition to
human health and muscle, but by
the box office receipts, and the gam
bling percentage. Or, it is confined
to academic realms for the amuse-
ment of the sons and daughters of
the upper and professional classes.
Workers Capture Sports.
At the Film Guild Cinema they
are now running a Sovkino picture
that shows the workers taking over
sports and evidently enjoying the
process. The usually clever pho
Biography of the Sovkino artists is
utilised to make the Spartakiad, the

vocation, and will be elected solely
against labor, against the Commun-
ist movement, against militant rank
and file workers.
In the establishment of this secret
police, the breaking Walker
government adds new chapters to its
labor-suppressing activities. The
Walker government during the last
four years has been the most brazen
government in conducting terrorist
policies against strikers, in mass ar
rests, long term imprisonments and
strike breaking work. The forma-
ton of this new bureau and the Sc
cret police is likewise part of the
war preparations Of the capitalist
class of this country. 1t intends by
this means to extend the local arm
Of the war body of the capitalist
class. 1t follows upon the huge mil
itarization of the New York police
which is already equipped with ma
chine gun squads, armored tanks,
tear gas bombs and all the devilish
devices of militarism to beat down
and suppress the workers. The
capitalist class is fast setting aside
every pretense of democracy in its
efforts to beat back any resistance
to the mad system of naturalization,
of industrial speed-up, of squeezing
increased production out of the bru-
tally oppressed workers, of estab-
fishing company unions, blocking
every effort to organize real unions
among the unorganized workers.
The capitalist class recognizes that
the workers are already beginning to
resist these new devices of exploita-
ton and oppression and know that
the workers will turn inevitably and
in great masses to the Communist
movement for leadership to fight
against the new forms of slavery
being imposed upon the working
class. For that reason, the capital
lists are forging new weapons of
struggle against the radical labor
movement and against the Commun-
list Party.
Answers Socialist" Clamor.
The formation of this czarist po-
lice demonstrates completely the
capitalist nature of the socialist par
ty which in the last few years has
been calling for a reorganization of
the police department, "for the curb
ing of crime, for the establishment
of more efficient police system"
Here is the reorganization of the
New York police. Here is its great

to curb Grimes" the Grimes" of
militant labor.
Workers Must Fight.
The workers of New York must
conduct an energetic struggle
against these new chains of slavery
that are being forged by their class
enemies. The working class of New
York must march hand in hand with
the Communist Party in the strug-

lions issued by the capitalist courts,

Bernard Shoe Bosses
Make Weak Maneuver
Against Fifty Strikers

Aroused by the strike of fifty
workers in their plant at 200 Hill
larry ST., Brooklyn, the bosses of the
Bernard Shoe Company have hired
several "sandwich-men" to carry
placards before the factory inscribed
with the words: "No, there is no
strike in the Bernard Shoe Co."
This clutching maneuver has so far
been futile.
The strikers, who have been out
for a week, are redoubling their
picketing activity, and the shop is
expected to capitulate to the demand
of the workers and recognize the
Independent Shoe Workers Union.

III Urge Workers Defense.
Feeling ran high in the cloak
market all day yesterday as cloak
maker after cloakmaker learned of
the murderous assault by the COM
pany union thugs. General senti-
ment was that the I. L. G. w. was
being driven to these desperate
measures by the complete failure of
their fake stoppage and the ex-
rcsure by the Industrial Union of
their conspiracy with the bosses.
Many workers flocked to the Of
flee of the Industrial Union and
urged that steps be Immediately
taken to defend workers from the
right wing guerillas who are OPP
Grating with the support of the po-
lice.
Acting on these demands, the
Needle Trades Workers Industrial
Union has called a meeting of all its
active members of every craft for
tonight right after work in Irving
Plaza, 18th st. and Irving Pl. This
meeting will take up proposals for
driving the gangsters out of the
garment district and will organ
ize workers defense committee.
Clique is Desperate.
"These attacks by underworld
-gangsters merely show how desper-
lite the corrupt clique is" declares
statement issued yesterday by the
j industrial Union. Zone day they
offer TO act as stool-pigeons for the
department of Justice; the next they
send their guerillas into the market
to stab. beat and terrorize all hon
est workers who refuse to submit
to the company union.
"But all these measures cannot
scare the workers: they are power
less to drive them back to the brutal
slavery that the Socialist scabs, in
collaboration with the employers
end the capitalist state, are prepar-
ing for them. They only serve to
expose even more the depths OF cor
ruption and degeneracy to which the
IL. G. W. officials have descended.

ers will act against this gangster
terror. Every active member OF the
Industrial Union must come to lr-

eraI Months.

Curtis Melton Smith. 60 years old,
retired refrigeration engineer of the
Bureau of Standards, engaged in the
ice manufacturing business here for
many years, died at his home, 4348 Ell
licott street, Chevy Chase, today. He
had been. in poor health for several
months. but did not become seriously
Ill until several days ago.
A native of Chatham Port, Mass, Mr..
Smith came to this city when 81 years
old and engaged in the ice manufactur-
ing business. His uncle, the late David
Smith, built what was reputedly the
second ice manufacturing plant erected
III the United States, in Georgetown,
after having built the first one in Cali
fornia
Mr. Smith was retired from his posi-
ton at the Bureau of Standards about
l3 months ago and quit the ice manu-
featuring business about IL years ago.
He played an heroic part in an ex-
plosion which occurred at the Bureau
of Standards in 1923. The force of the
explosion threw him through the door
of the building, injuring him. In spite
of his injuries. however, he crawled
back into the building to cut of a flow
Of ammonia fumes to save his compan-
ions. He was highly commended for
his actions at the time by President
Hoover, then Secretary of Commerce:
Mr.. Smith had long been active in
the Masonic fraternity. He was master
of the William r. Singleton Lodge Of
Masons in 1908, was Knight Templar
and member of the Mystic Shrine.

ator McNary has been member of the
Senate for II years and prior to his
entry into the Senate ne served for
several years as associate justice of the
Supreme Court of Oregon.
Senator Smith has been no less
student of farm conditions i'll the coun-
try than has Senator McNary. He is
particularly familiar with the problem
of the farmer in the cotton growing
States of the South. In 1905 he was
one of the principal figures in the or
ganization of the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation in New Orleans and was made
field agent and general organizer of that
movement. In 1908 he was nominated
for the Senate, and since 1909 has been
a member of the upper house of Con-
gress.
The Senator from South Carolina
may be expected to voice the position
of the Democrats, particularly those
from the South, upon the question of
farm relief. He will be able to say how
far the Democrats propose to go along
with President Hoover in the effort for
farm legislation and farm aid gener-
ally at the coming special session of
Congress, which has been called pri-
marty to deal with the farm problem
and tariff revision. Senator Smith is
an able and persuasive talker.
Washington will hear the discussion
through WMAL.

The dead men, were Clarence Harvey
and Edward Smith, both Of 224 v street.
They were accompanied by Jesse Ken
dali, colored, also an informer. who es-
capped unhurt. Harvey, shot through the
heart, ran a block before collapsing. He
was found face downward with a gun
clutched In his hand. Three of the five
shells in the revolver were exploded.
Police think these exploded shells may
hold the answer to the reason for the
shooting. They say william Bradley,
who has flesh wound in one shoulder
tells a story of having been shot by
Harvey an hour earlier when he saw
Harvey and Smith coming from house
in the first block of M street southwest,
where they had tried but failed to pur-
chase liquor He asked Harvey what
Ne was doing in the house. he declared.
and the informer pulled gun and fred
a shot at the ground near his feet. AS
he ran Harvey fired again, this time the
bullet striking the fleeing man in the
shoulder.
Raid Led to Shooting, Belief.
A few minutes later fourth precinct
police arrested Warren p Hawkins and
Edward G. Ashton, both colored, as they
are alleged to have been delivering "a
quarts of corn whisky at the M street
address. The two men were arraigned
in Police Court yesterday under the
Jones law and held for the grand jury.
While Harvey and Smith failed TO
procure evidence against the place. it
is pointed ont. the impression made by
their presence there was that they were
the cause of the raid. This. together
with the aninosity developed by their
success in obtaining evidence against
lottery operators in the Southwest sec
ton of the city was the underlying
cause of the murder, police believe.

TORONTO March 15.--Rivers and
creeks in Southern Ontario are again
on their annual rampage, overfiowing
their banks and flooding the low-lying
districts. Although the present condi-
tons have not yet raised any undue
alarm, one life has been lost in the
rushing waters and considerable damage
has been caused In certain localities.
Cities and towns along the Grand
River have apparently suffered serious
damage in this years breakup. and re-
ports from Gait indicate that the ag-
gregate loss there will run into many
thousand dollars.
