British Labor Ministry Aids Mill Owners

world has known. The various i'm
perialist powers-America, Great
Britain, France, Belgium, Holland,
etc.-exploit and plumber the natives
of thees colonies in the most brutal
and merciless fashion. Coming huge
profits out of the blood of these CO.
lonials, the imperialists resort to the
most dsstardly and violent means to
suppress those who dare rebel
against and resist this oppression.
The once independent Negro nation
of Haiti has been crushed by ruth
less American imperialism. The
system of exploitation of the Re
public of Liberia by the Firestone
Rubber Company with the direct
support of the United States gov
eminent is one of the worst forms
of colonial slavery ever instituted.
Under the yoke of American naval
rule, the natives Of the Virgin Isl
ands have been impoverished and
are deprived of the most elementary
human rights.
In order to maintain its policy of
repression, violence and exploitation
of Negroes, the imperialists create
false racial ideas among the white
workers and foster contempt and ha-
tired for the Negro. The theory of
superior" and "inferior" races is
the theoretical justification for their
policy of super-exploitation of the
Negro race.
The poison of racial prejudice and
hostility permeates even the labor
movement. A concerted effort is
made to keep the Negro workers out
Of the trade unions. The reaction
airy trade union leaders deprive
the Negro workers of the bene-
fit Of unionization, thereby weak
ening the trade union movement
and leaving the Negro workers at
the mercy of the employers.

II. Garveyism: Its Contradictions
and Its Weakness.
There are many fatal weaknesses
in the philosophy of Marcus Garvey
and the Garvey Movement. Of these
the most fatal and fundamental is
the inability of the Garvey leaders
to understand the nature of the So
cial fabric: the class character of
capitalist society.
Garveyism sees the white race as
an entity, imagines solidarity where
no solidarity exists, neglects to take
note of those contradictions and an
tagonisms in white capitalist society
which, taken advantage of would
mean so much for Negro liberation.
Garveyism sees only powerful white
nations, without recognizing the
sharp class differences existing with
i'll those nations, in which the white
master class exploits the white
working class population as ruth
lessly as it exploits the colored CO.
lonial populations, and with the same
results: the rise of revolutionary
movements aimed at the exploiting
class. Carveyism does not recog-
nize the existence of an irrepressible
and constantly sharpening conflict
between the white ruling class and
the white workers of the home coun-
tries, as expressed in strikes, up
risings, etc. Not even the mighty
Russian revolution whereby the Rus
sian working-cl achieved the con-
quest of State power could teach
Garveyism the lesson of the sharp
ching class differences in capitalist
society. In the face of the inten-
styling struggle between the Com
munist international as the cham
pion of the oppressed colonials and
the leader of the worlds working
class, and the imperialist powers as
oppressors and exploiters of vast
masses of home workers and colo
mails, Garveyism is still blind lin
tentionally or otherwise) to this
great fact. But what Garveyism
fails to note, the oppressors have
long understood, as witness their de-
nunciation of the Communist Inter
national and their refusal to recog-
nize Soviet Russia on the charge
! that Soviet Russia has been giving
