YOUNG WORKERS
Arrested BY u. S.
ARMY OFFICERS
Observation-Disclosures
to Servicemen

DENVER, March 20.-Members
of the Young Communist League
are considered so dangerous by the
military authorities that the officers
ordered four large husky service
men to arrest a girl League member,
who was distributing leaflets to the
national guardsmen here. Officers
themselves grabbed the arm of her
companion. The two Girls were then
questioned by the officers.
do you get paid for this? Who
pays you? Do YOU believe in the
American flag? What do you think
of the red, white and blue?" These
were some of the questions asked
the League members. But the
authorities were far more anxious
to know what guardsmen had given
the information published in the
leaflets. They were worried very
much by the fact that servicemen
are organizing under leadership of
the Young Communist League.
Don't you know you can be de-
ported out of the country for this? ?"
the officers demanded, despite the
fact that both of the young Commu-
nists were born in the state of Colo
RADIO. After threats and attempts
to intimidate them, the officers re-
leased the girls. The arrest by mill
tary authorities was illegal, and
they did not dare let the matter re-
ceive publicity and become known
to more servieemen.

SIR GEORGE PAISH NO PARADES FOR

British Economist"
Predicts Crash

LONDON, England, March 20
Predicting that the world sis threat
cned with the gravest financial
crisis it has ever SEEM" Sir George
Paish, governor of the London
School Of Economics yesterday fore
caet crash of international pro-
port in the spring.
"The present policy of protection
or safeguarding means the suicide
of the world" he said. Nothing can
be done now to prevent financial
crash"
Changes Arguments.
This time Sir George was arguing
for free trade before the National
Free Trade Conference at Manches-
ter yesterday. A year ago the same
economist foresaw the same collapse
but then he was arguing for pro-
lection. Unless British industry is
protected, he urged at that time, a
tremendous financial collapse is in
evitable.
Glibness of Economist"
While the crash certainly lies
ahead of capitalism, tho not in
just the way Sir George predicts,
the glibness with which the learned
economist can shift his point of
view suggests that his opinion Is
venal and his present utterances
have something to do with drum
ming UP liberal ballyhoo for the
coming general elections.

Especial to the Daily Worker

Especial to the Daily Worker
ROCHESTER, N. Y, March 49,
Left wing members of the Amalga-
mated Clothing Workers Union is
sued a warning here to the Amalga-
mated members in the Los Angeles
local, telling them that the locals
new manager, appointed by Pres
ident Hillman, was a faker whose
betrayal of his former left wing
affiliations made him particularly
obnoxious to honest workers.
The statement declares:
The Rochester members of the A.
C. w. of A., want to warn all class
conscious members of the Los
Angeles and other California units
of the union against the fake revolu-
ZIONIST and renegade whom Mr.. Hill
man has just made manager of Los
Angeles district.
Hillman's appointment of Louis
Stark is in reward for Stark's be-
trayal of the workers interests, for
his desertion of the revolutionary
workers cause for the sake of the
job, and for his open support of
every reactionary measure and ter
rorist policy used by Hillman
against the members of the organ
ization.
Knows Left Phrases.
Stark pretends to be a revolution
ist. At one time he was with the
Trade Union Educational League.
He was also member of the Prole-
tartan Party, there he acquired the
revolutionary phrases which he now
uses so glibly to confuse and mis-
lead the workers. Four years ago
Hillman offered him an interna-
tional organizership, and Stark COM
pletely sold out. Since then he has
been using all he learned in the
movement and the condolences he
had built up to betray and mislead
the workers and to build Hillman's
reactionary machine.
We in Rochester have learned
through bitter experience how rotten
and corrupted this Stark is. We
have seen him go all the way from
supporter to one of the worst
fascists in the black army that is
Hillman's. The workers should con.
solidate their ranks and prepare to
defend themselves against the new
attacks that Hillman's new manager
has been sent to launch against
them.

The bosses associations vary con-
siderably in magnitude, structure,
territory covered, ETC., ranging from
small, local trade organizations to
huge, powerful national units. AS in
the case of everything which bears
the genuine stamp Of the bourgeoisie
chaos reigns supreme here. Many
associations cover only a certain
trade in a given city or town; others
cover only a certain part of trade,
as, e.g, the so-called small" and
Large" associations of the furriers
(employers) of New York; still
others cover entire industries. Some
include no more than city, others
entire states. There are some
that cover a little more, or a little
less, than one city. The most i'm
portant ones, however, are with
some exceptions) the national asso-
Citations, some of which pretend 10
cover certain trades or industries on
a nationwide scale. as, for example:
the National Metal Association"
founded 1S99), or the National
Erectors' Association" # found d
1909; others attempt to combine
all the industries Of the nation, as,
e.g.: the National Associations of
Manufacturers" founded 1880, or
the National Industrial Conference
Board" founded 1879.
No Real Figures.
How many bosses associations
arc there in the United States? It
is hard to give a definite answer to
this question, The figures furnished
By different investigators differ so
markedly as to make he whole mat
ter seem ridiculous. One thing is
certain-that their number runs up
into the thousands.
In order to give the reader some
idea of the differences that exist in
the results of different investiga-
tions Of this subject, we may note
that:
% According to Bennett, the
number of associations in the United
States is somewhat more than
1000.
(2) According to a report of the
Secretary of Commerce dated 1929
there are about 1000.
(3) A later report of the Secre-
tary of Commerce dated 1920 sets
the number at SITS.
We should note here that the
discrepancy between the two re-
ports of the Secretary Of Commerce
should not be taken as an indication
of a decrease in the actual number
of associations. This is simply a
result of the confusion which for
various reasons has entered into
these Investigations. We shall call
attention here to two of these
reasons:
MANY associations give no
answer to the inquiries of the De-
partment Of Commerce; they refuse,
in general, to give any information
concerning their activities. This
secrecy is pointed out again and

L0re's Yellow Tabloid
Admits Cannon Called
Police Against Workers


The fTrotskyist) German organ,
"New York Volkszeitung," edited by
The renegade, Ludwig Lore, admits,
in it's issue OF yesterday. that James
p. Cannon and his cronies called in
the police, in addition to his thugs,
to attack militant workers at his
meeting Tuesday night at the Labor
Temple, 18th St. and Second Ave.
1t also insinuates that the work
ers who were put out started fire.
This framed-up accusation is con-
sidered ly workers typical of at
tacks being made by the Cannon
Lore group and accords well with
their utilization Of gangsters, police
and detectives.

Another expedition exploring the
kolyma River, in Asiatic Russia,
discovered that the upper reaches
of this river are within 800 kilo-
meters nearer the Okhossk Sea than
is shown on the map. They also
found that navigation conditions
were good all along the length of
the river to its very source.
This discovery will make life
easier in that faraway region, for
it will now be possible to supply it's
inhabitants with all necessary sup
plies by means of the river during
the spring and summer.

THIRD PARTY IN
TAMkANY FIGHT.
New Group Opposes
Smith and Walker

The Third Party" in the fight
among bosses inside of the Tam
many Hall organization moved yes
terday to restrict the choice, and at
tack the Smith faction, which talks
nicely of a "new Tammany," mean
ing to put itself in control of the
graft machine. The third Party
move is also to slap back at Mayor
Walker, who called a meeting yes
terday and told the political leaders
that they would have to put in some
body friendly to the mayor Of New
York.
The fight is about who will take
the leadership of Tammany Hall,
and be the most famous political boss
in the United States. The Third
Party" is made up of all the district
leaders, members of the Tammany
executive committee. The "Third
Party" is united against Smith and
Walker, more or less, but it is badly
divided over the question of who is
gong to be CHIEF boss OF Iammany
Hall.
Restrict Choice.
The move yesterday was to call a
meeting of the executive committee
for today, to formally restrict the
choice to a member of that commit
tee. Then they will fight and in
trigue among themselves until to-
morrow afternoon when the vote for
leader has to be taken.
Indications are that the first choice
will be Martin G. McCue, John F.
Curry, commissioner of records, OF
Edwin Ahearn, municipal court clerk.
None Of these appeared yesterday to
have enough votes Git takes 12)
to win the coveted post. If they each
refuse to yield to the other, some
compromise on another man will
have to be made.

Use; what is more, it is discussed by
our worthy ex-Sec-.. ary of Com
merce, Herbert Hoover.# We may
easily comprehend that this refusal
to furnish information is not a re-
suit of laziness. Whatevcr its short
comings, the American bourgeoisie,
which is noted for its sagacity, can
not be accused of laziness. This is,
rather, a result of diplomatic
maneuvers." But we shall have oc-
casion later to discuss this, as we'll
as their secret activities in general.
A second cause of confusion to
the statistician is the diversity in the
official names of t. associations.
Many of them, instead of employing
appropriate names las: The EN-
ployers' Association of such and
such an industry, ete.) give them
selves names that bear no relation
either to their character or to their
aims. They are known, e.g., as:
leagues, clubs, committees, Institutes,
etc. But the work of these seem
ingly harmless clubs and Institutes
entities them to place of honor"
among all the other organizations
of employers.
In justice to the associations, we
should add that this camouflaging
of some of them is made up for by
the open and above-board cynicism
of others like: "The Open Shop
Association of Beaumont. Texas"
National 4S-hour League" INA
tional Open Shop Publicity Bureau"

Constitutions and Reality.
After reading all the constitutions
and other official documents of vari-
Gus bosses association s." the unin-
itiated hight come to the conclusion
that these are organizations Of ideal
lists, of naive fanatics, and not at
all organizations of business men,
of practical employers. The well
known bourgeois bronides: peace,
law, order, truth, God, etc., are met
with very often and in various con-
texts.
Were we to take these statements
in good faith, we should believe that
the only aim of the American capt.
talists is to establish justice among
US poor sinful mortals. Even the
most secret of these associations.
"The League for Industrial Rights"
talks in the name Of justice. AL
though the attitude toward the pro-
letariat is not the same in the vari
Gus documents, there is one point
common to all of them: they all at
tempt in various ways to justify the
existence of the bosses associations
on the basis of self-defense &
simply Of desire for justice. go.
One who is not very gullible, how
ever, may without difficulty get at
tie kernel of truth which is hidden
by this thick she'll of discredited
phrases, namely: the attempts of the
capitalists, already pointed out at
the beginning of this article, to an
tagonize the masses to the idea of
the class-struggle.
