Exbose Boss Counts, Police In Lynch Terror

How the bosses instigate and
carry out the lynching of Negro
workers, how capitalist courts and
police cooperate in delivering the
victims over to the lynching mobs or
in railroading them through to a
legal lynching, when that seems
most feasible, is sharply exposed in
the latest developments in connec-
ton with two of Georgia's ten lynch
ings for the past nine months.
Grant Killed in Cell
In the case of George Grant, one
of the victims of the double lynch
ing at Darien, Ca, on September s,
spectacular developments have oc-
Cured as result of the militia and
sheriff trying to pass the buck to
each other. Forced to admit that
there was no mob involved in the
lynching of Grant as war reported
by the bosses news agencies, Col
onel Neal, the commander of the
militia detachment which was on
guard at the time, supposedly to
prevent lynching, declares Grant
was killed in his cell. He further

FEAR AGRARIAN REVOLT
In EASTERN EUROPE

PARIS, Oct. IA deep-going
agricultural crisis is developing in
France, admits Fernand David,
Minister of Agriculture in an inter
view yesterday. To save" the
situation a stiff tariff is proposed
against the importation of agrarian
products. This won't help the world
agrarian crisis any, as the growth
of tariffs against farm products is
rapidly increasing in all countries.
"The agricultural crisis in this
country" Minister David stressed in
arguing for tariff, "is profound
and is spread throughout the nation.
The sale price of farm products is
insufficient to compensate for the
production costs-labor, transport
and agricultural equipment" He
also attacked the Soviet Union be-
cause it is raising the standard of
living of the masses and increasing
its agrarian output without paying
profits to the bosses.

C.P. FILES full
TICKET IN IND,
Negro Workers Giving
Fine Support

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 5.-The
Communist Party yesterday filed
petitions for candidates for the No
vember A elections. Each of the
candidates received large number
of signatures, more than necessary
to place them on the ballot. The
capitalist politicians are afraid of
the success of the Communist Party,
M. Hutsell, member of the Board
of Commissioners, declaring after
the filing Of the petitions of the
Communist Party that he twill call
q meeting of the board Immediately
to consider the petitions"
This statement is in line with the
attempts of capitalist politicians to
prevent the Communist Party from
placing it's candidates on the ballot
in Marion County, Indiana. The
Communist Party is aware of this
and is modifying the working class
ard demanding the placing of the
Communist Party candidates on the
ballot.
The following candidates have
been noniated:n u. S. Congress-
man, Morris P.orterfield, Negro
bIicklayer; State Senator, Messy
Noon, Marion County; State Rep
rcsentativcs from Marion County,
Joseph E. Jones, Logan A. Harper,
Carl Daughei tv Joseph Campbell,
John E. Irwin, Childs w. Burton and
Virgin Robinson; Joint Representa-
tives from Marion and Jackson
Counties: Prosecuting Attorney,
Perry S. Wyatt, Clerk, William F..
Jackson; Auditor, Allen Pickett,
Treasurer, Mildred Hicks; Sheriff,
Robert Hicks; Commissioner, G.
Wr. Hicks; Councilman at Large,
Indianapolis, Sherman Long.
Among the candidates are a large
). number of Negroes and about half
of the signatures secured to put the
Communist Party on the ballot were
occurred among the Negro workers.
The Communist Party receives this
support from the Negro workers
because % its activity in protesting
against lynchings and in the de-
Tense of the Negro masses.

declares that he had guards in the
yard of the prison and that no one
could have entered the cell except
through the sheriff's office.
The sheriff retorts that he "does
not know who did it, and does not
give DAMN" and adds further that
eff you want to know, ask the
Savannah National Guard officers
who were down here"
One Victim Wrongly Accused
Out of this passing of the buck,
two facts develop: ~ that there was
no mob involved in the lynching of
Grant and q that the capitalist
press deliberately created a mob in
order to cover up the additional fact
that the capitalist state officials not
only hand over Negro workers to the
mobs but themselves participate in
he bloody lynching terror of the
bosses against the Negro masses.
Grant, with another Negro worker,
Willie Bryan, was accused or return

Crisis Very Severe;

Armed uprising and fighting
against the pro-British Julio Prestes
regime in Brazil has broken out in
those states in which American CAPT

dent Prestes state that fighting is
going on in the States of Rio Grande

AS in Argentina, the revolution"
against the Prestes government is
backed by American imperialism,
with the exception that it is the
"liberal" bourgeoisie instead of the
conservative, as in Argentina, who
support American imperialism. In
Brazil, there is larger mass move

be reckoned with, as well as strong
and determined Communist Party,
with its roots in the masses.

OPTIMISM" OF
HOOVER Gets
BLOW BY FACTS
Economic Crisis Grows
Worse All the Time

Hoover and Klein's election clap
trap about conditions lettering soon
are given a Knockout blow for the
thousandth time by the latest re-
ports of activities in all basic in
dustries.
When Hoover unloaded his Cop
timism" about American capitalism
at the Cleveland bankers conven-
ton he meant to reach the workers
too and get their vote for the boss
parties.
But here are the facts the work
ers must know and according to
which they should vote and fight.
The economic crisis rsish getting
worse. With it will come increased
wage cuts. Unemployment this
winter will be the worst in the coun-
try's history. Even fascist Green
now admits that, though he holds
out the mirage of better spring.
The latest dope from the boss fl
nancial press shows that the condi-
tions now are getting worse than
the worst period in the terrific 1921
crisis. Tie New York Times (Oct.
81 says that the figures from all
industries "failed to indicate any
marked revival of industry and
trade" They did, in fact, just the
opposite. The Times tell us the fol-
lowing about the major industries:
Demand for steel was reported
slackening. The Iron Age esti-
mated the rate of operations at
81 per cent of capacity unchanged
from the previous week, but other
estimates indicated a decline in
steel operations. :. :.
Automobile production for the
last week in September was
sharply lower as the result, prin-
cipally of the curtailment of
Ford operations to three days
week. Car loadings for the week
ended on Sept. 20 were 952,512
against 1,167,395. The adjusted
index showed a marked decline"
The latest Annalist says that the
decline in car loadings is the most
discouraging factor.
Quoting the Standard Statistics
Co., which gives a pretty black pic
ture of all industries, the New York
Herald Tribune says: Survey of
Industry Reveals Little Hope of
Early Revival" And the same is
confirmed by the Journal of Com
merce which headlines its story on
the latest news of the crisis with
these words: "See General Recov-
cry Delayed"
For the workers jobs and food
will be delayed as long as they per-
nit the bosses to hold on to their
profits, and do not fight for unem-
ployment insurance. The immediate
task is to fight behind the Commu-
mist Party in the election campaign.
Vote Communist! And broaden and
increase the fight for unemploy-
ment insurance.

NAVY SPEEDS ITS
PLANS FOR WAR
Spend Billions But the
Jobless Starve

WASHINGTON, Get. 5.-Hoover
and Admiral w. V. Pratt, chief of
naval operations, have ordered the
navy to increase its efficiency for
war purposes, and to raise its fight
ing strength as provided for in the
London naval treaty.
Specific orders have gone out to
all navy commanders to rush the
improvements in the navy, to- put
the fleet on war footing, and to
utilize its maximum military
strength.
War preparations in the Orient
are eing rushed. Orders were re-
ceived at Pearl Harbor Friday to
send two divisions of R. type sub
marines to Atlantic ports in Decem-
Der. With the war danger growing
in Latin America this is an impor-
tant step of American Imperialism.
Everything is being done in Wash
ington to "modernize" the war
strength of the navy in preparation
for the growing struggle for world
markets, as we'll as to suppress"
revolts in Cuba and other Latin
American countries that conflict
with the interests of Wall Street.
The whole reorganization and eff
ficiency" plan is being carried on
under the guise of economy" to
keep from the workers and unem-
ployed the fact that the government
is spending billions for war while
it refuses one penny to the 100000
starving unemployed.
This is what capitalism does dur
ing the present sharp crisis-pre-
pares for war and suppression Of
mass uprisings, as well as to attack
the Soviet Union. 1t uses billions
for this purpose while the unem-
ployed millions and their families
starve. Demand the war funds be
turned over to the unemployed! Vote
for Communist candidates who will
carry on the fight against the war
preparations and for the Unemploy-
ment Insurance Bill

Hoover appears tomorrow with
fresh lies and soothing optimism
before the A. F. L. convention,
where he will meet with no rebuff
or criticism. He comes to compli-
ment the labor lieutenants of CAPT
talism the A. F. L. leaders on hav-
ing prevented strikes as far as they
are able, and thus having carried
out the plot to shift the burden of
the depression onto the 100000

Hoover comes to applaud the re-
newal in this convention of the old
A. F. L. policy of non-partisanship
in elections, which means in prac-
tice the sale of the labor vote by
the international union heads for
jobs and concessions, not to the
workers but to the A. F. L. Off
