NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE in
tersectional games which I pre-.
dicted Q few days ago would just
about decide the pennant. have
come and gone. and in. the
American League they've been
about sas decisive as, I figured.
The National League fight is still
an open one, with Brooklyn hold
ing whatever advantage there
may be at the present moment.
So far: as the American League
is concerned. it looks as If the
Athletics we're about in. It's still
possible to beat them, but 1t would
take a long and steady winning
streak, coupled with a slump on
the part. Of the AS. don't think
the AS, are apt. to slump very
much and ! don't figure either the
Yankees or Griffs will put on a
winning streak.

PROHIBIT RED
ELECTION MEETS

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 29.-Con-
tinuing the bosses anti working
class terror, the city council today,
acting upon the orders of the Cham
Der of Commerce, refused a permit
for a Communist Election Campaign
parade on October 5.
In San Pedro the terror manifested
itself in the arrest of William
Simons, Communist candidate for
governor of California, while ad-
dressing Red Election Campaign
meeting. Police attacked the crowd
and arrested Simons, Elmer Gibbs
and Patrick e. Chambers. They are
charged with indulging in the right
of free speech without a permit.
In the meantime, the Southern
California Election Campaign Com
mittee of the Communist Party is
going ahead with it's plans for an
election parade demonstration on
Sunday morning, October 5, and calls
upon all workers of Los Angeles to
rally to the support of the right of
the workers to use the streets and to
put UP candidates on a working class
ticket.
After the parade the workers will
go to a Communist Election Rally
picnic at Plumbers Park.

ROCHESTER IS

Comrades Laying Down on
Election Camp

ROCHESTER, Sept. 29.-Immedi-
ately after the seventh convention of
our party the membership of Roch-
ester section, District 4, heard the re-
port of this convention and unani-
mously approved it's decisions and
political line How does the mem
bership of the Rochester section
carry out the work that the seventh
convention planned for it?
1t is only necessary to call atten-
ton to the fact that with a member
ship of about so the Rochester sec
ton has up to the time of this writ
ing, been unable to gather the 1900
signatures necessary to place $4,000
unemployed who are today more re-
ceptive to our propaganda than ever
before, is in danger of not having a
Communist candidate on the Con-
gressional ticket unless the member
ship within the remaining few days
is aroused to energetic work in coll
lecting these signatures. Some indi-
vidual members have proven that
this task is a simple one and could
be achieved. One instance: A Ne
gro comrade having Joined the Party
less than two weeks ago, set to work
and in a few days gathered in the
neighborhood of so signatures to the
shame of those "old Bolsheviks" who
are looked up to because Of their
many years of membership in the
Party.
The Section Committee of Roch-
ester is now preparing plans to
check up on the activity of every
member and to involve the entire
membership in day to day work. All
Party forces in Rochester, as we'll as
sympathizers, must be modified for
the election campaign and specific
ally to collect the necessary amount
of signatures to put our local Con-
gressional candidate on the ballot.
Comrades: Heed the eleventh hour
call of the Party. Get your lists and
make 1t possible for the workers of
Rochester to be represented on the
ballot by a Communist candidate.
These signatures must be in not
later than October 8.

Broun contended that he was

the cop had not asked the other

the other pickets had not paid
the cop to be dispersed. So the
case was clear.
But, evidently, had the cops

satisfied that justice was done.
All should be equal before the
law, in his idea. Millionaires
should be shown no favors if
they go on strike and form a

TUUL Organizing
Furniture Workers
In Rockford, I'LL.

ROCKFORD, H., Sept. 29.-The
T. U. U. L. of Rockford has now
established itself in their new head
quarters at 431 West State street,
and is engaged in drive to organize
the furniture and metal workers.
At the Rockford Cabinet, the big
gest furniture factory in Rockford,
a 10 per cent wage cut took place
September Is. 1t was the second
wage cut since last spring. Rockford
Cabinet is not the only place where
the workers get Hoover's pros
perity"-a form of wage cuts. In
every furniture factory in Rockford
the workers face the same conditions
unless they organize and STRIKE
against wage cuts-working and
starving at the same time.
The city administration Is falling
in line with the fascist tactics that
the capitalists all over the country,
and all over the capitalist world, use
against the workers revolutionary
rganizations--arrests and Jail terms.
Three comrades, the organizer of the
Communist Party, Young Communist
League, Trade Union Unity League,
and three other workers are now
facing from three and one-half to
dared to hold street and factory gate
meetings in order to organize the

NEW HAVEN, Sept. 90. - The

resorting to every trick on the cal

ROOSEVELT To
RUN FOR CRAFT
RIDDEN TAMMANY
Is Neck Deep in Mire of
Robbery; Tries to
Fool Workers

SYRACUSE, Sept. 29-The entire
pig-pen of Tammany Hall grafters
will go through the rigamarole of
nominating Franklin D. Roosevelt as
Democratic candidate for Governor of
the State of New York to run against
Charles H. futile. Hoover'5 tool.
Roosevelt and futile have already
opened a sham squabble as to who
put over the fake bills that were
passed in the Legislature during the
past year to fool the workers.
Roosevelt, who now has the sup
port of the A. F. of L. fascist leaders,
is glib faker. He is counted on by
the bosses to do giant service in mis-
leading the millions OF unemployed
into the belief that the boss parties
can do something for them.
Realizing that he stands neck deep
in the Tammany mire of graft and
scandal, Roosevelt went through
sowe shadow boxing today to extricate
himself. He sent a letter to JazZy
Walker mayor of New York, CRITICIZE
ing his fellow grafters for being SO
crude as refusing to testify before
the grand jury.
Roosevelt and his party are build
ing up a whole series of fake issues
to bring before the workers. Senator
Wagner, who is now a big shot in the
Democratic party, will hold up his
bill for counting the unemployed"
Roosevelt will stress his "old age
pension" bill, and the support of the
best scabbers in the A. F. of L. No
jobless worker can fill his stomach
by being counted" and the millions
of older workers who should get a
pension now may die of hunger a
thousand times before they reach the
age of 70, as specified in the Roosevelt
bill, when they are supposed to get a
few pennies.
The Communist Party, with Will
liam 2. Foster as its gubernatorial
candidate. points out that the Com
munist leaders have been jailed by
the Tammany grafters for fighting
for the demands of the unemployed.
Time after time, Foster has exposed
the fake issues of the Republican
Democrat Socialist outfit. 1t is only
the Communist Party which has a
bill for real Unemployment Insurance
and carries on a relentless fight
rousing the workers to force it
through.

Texas, Gamers little fling at the
Hoover administration is just his
way of reminding the Hoover
bunch that the Democrats aren't
the only grafters.
The $1Oo,OOO,Ooo tax-return graft
exposure comes on the heels of the
exposure of one of Hoover's own men
that the big oil trusts are being
handed $4,000, 100000 in Colorado oil
lands. During the present crisis,
while 100000 workers face starva-
ton this winter, the boss grafters
decide that they won't do things in
small way. They stick their hands
deeply into the U. S. Treasury and
pull out billions.
The Communists Party, in its cleo
tion campaign, is pointing these facts
out to the workers. 1t demands that
the bosses, who have been handed
billions by the Government, as well
as those whose profits continue dur
ing the crisis, be forced to pay for
unemployment insurance. A vote for
the Communist Party is a vote
against the capitalist grafters and a.
struggle for a workers and poor
farmers government in this country.

Greenville, S. c., Sept. 29.-Re-
Gently a bread truck passing through
a South Carolina mill village, near
Rock Hill, was stopped by three mill
workers and emptied of its contents.
The driver was told that the "high-
waymen" were not after money and
would not harm the driver, but that
people were starving in the mill vii
lagos, and that they were going to
have the contents of that truck.
The driver, seeing that the men
were serious, surrendered all of his
bread, pie and cake without muir

another load. Meanwhile, these mod

The very same oil lands that
the Harding robber adninistra-
ton handed over to the grafters
and bribers in the Sinclair Oil Co.,
and which was exposed in the Teapot
Dome scandal, is now being turned
over to other oil trusts.
Hoover and his gand can readily
find sS0O,00o,00O in tax returns for
the bosses; s11,ooO,0O0,0 900 for war
preparations, and now $4,000, 900, 900
for the rich oil trusts, but not one
penny for the unemployed.
Hoover and his gang can readily
and ask the workers to vote for them
in the next election. The grafters
in the Democratic Party, as well,
who were mixed up, not only in all
the Tammany graft in New York, but
in the Sinclair Doheny oil grab, try
to get the workers to vote for them.
A vote for these boss parties, and
their supporters, the socialist party,
is vote for wage cuts, and approval
by the workers of the bosses graft
ing to the. extent of billions.
The Communist Party demands
that these billions that the bosses
are putting into their pocket, or using
for war purposes be turned over to
the unemployed. A vote for the Com
munist Party is a blow against capt.

THE fact that groups Of workers

its readers that there is Communist
ticket in this election campaign. is
sign of the rehabilitation among
the workers and of the support Com

masses. During the German election
campaing which resulted in an over
whelming victory for the Communist
ticket, the workers truly painted Ber-
lin red, through signs and posters
of all kinds. The streets where
workers live were lined up with
flaming red banners, calling the
masses to vote for Communism.
"The American works, particularly
those suffering from wage-cuts,
speed-up and unemployment, have
taken the cue from the workers of
Germany and have shown what they
intend doing during this election
