Picturesque Troopers

The name "hussars" formerly was
confined to the light cavalry of the
Hungarian army, but it is now applied
to that in other European armies
which possess similar characteristics.
The hussars are described as "fght-
horse troopers, armed with saber and
carbine, brilliantly uniformed aud
formerly wearing dolman and busby."

Berton Keith was called away that
afternoon to another city. He would
be gone for a week.
"When get back" he told Eleanor,
swapping his bag to, I'm going to
search this town over in an effort to
find some lonely somebody who will
take that child and make him happy.
I'll pay them well, for as long as I
live intend to look after Daniel"
The night Keith returned Eleanor
met him at the train. He could not
remember when he had ever seen his
wife's eyes so eager and bright. She'd
probably been happier in his absence.
r "Do you know what day this is, Ber-
ton?" she asked, squeezing his arm.
Her birthday, and he'd failed to re-
member! Now, for it was in the win
ter. Their wedding anniversary. No,
that was in the fall, and this was
June.
"You never do remember It,"
laughed Eleanor. "Your birthday! And
I've got the darlingest gift for you
that could find!"
He guessed all the way home, re-
calling every birthday gift he had ever
received in all his thirty-odd years.
But he had no luck. Eleanor was ju-
bilant over his failure.
When they reached home he found
that the table was laid for dinner. In
the center was huge cake with its
candles. A man with birthday cake
and candles! No wonder he couldn't
guess! Cakes with candles were for
children.
"When we are seated Hannah will
bring in the-surprise ~ said Eleanor,
smiling. They sat down at the table
in mysterious silence. And Hannah
brought in-Daniel! Pale, grinning,
dressed-up Daniel, and placed him
tenderly in his chair. Keith had not
noticed that the table was set for
three!
"He's ours. Berton," said Eleanor,
tears trimming her eyes, ito keep for
our very own-if you want him!"
"But do your asked Berton Keith
quickly.
"Do I? Why, Berton, do you real
lie that we've not had a quarrel since
we've known Daniel? We've had him
to think about and talk about in
stead Of getting on each others
nerves! Don't you know that there
are very, very few cases in this world
where only two persons can live to-
gether year in and year out without
fghting?"
Keith got up and went around to
her and kissed her.
"You solved all this yourself! And
I thought I was the lawyer"
"Of course, didn't think of it my
self. It's everywhere-even in every
story book you pick up! The cake
you see, it has only five candles-is
for Daniel, celebrating this day he Is
born to us. Your birthday gift, Ber-
ton, is Daniel-our son!"
Daniel put his small hand into the
eager one of the big mans awkwardly.
"Welcome to our home, Daniel, my
boy!" said voice bit husky.
"Gee, Mr.. Keith" Daniel grinned
back at him, $50 many nice things are
happnin to me must be regular

"Yes, sir, Daniel" agreed Berton
Keith, warmly, there's whole lot of

WHILE the workers in New Bedford We're
commemorating the death of great
fighter in the labor movement, Big Bill Hay
wood, and pledging themselves to fight
against the speed-up, wage-cuts and unem-
ployment under the leadership of the National
Textile Workers Union a group of traitors
and renegades attempted to call meeting of
the textile workers in Monte Rio Hall to split
the N.T.W.U.
These traitors passed out leaflets in the
name of the N.T.W.U. at the mill gates in an
attempt to fool the Portuguese workers.
Those workers, discovering the true character
of the leaflets, turned them into the union
headquarters.
In their leaflet, Wesbord, Keller and Daw-
son called themselves the real leaders of the
strikes in New Bedford, Fall River and other
cities.
We're they the real leaders? No! At the
time of the building of the National Textile
Workers Union (then known as the Textile
Mills Committee), Fred Beal, VIM. Murdoch
and group of rank and file workers, such as
Lameiras, Sameiras, Pitta and others were the
real builders of the National Textile Workers
Union. Wesbord, Keller and Dawson, towards
ALL have the nerve to proclaim themselves
before the workers as militant fighting
leaders.
Why is it that Wesbord handed in his resig-
nation as National Org. Secy. of the union?
Because Weisbord's yellow streak was plainly
evident when there was a motion that he
should go down into Gastonia at the time Fred
Beal and the other defendants were in Jail.
But Weisbord didn't like the idea of facing the
bosses Black Hundred in Gastonia. He valued
his hide more than fighting for better
ditions for workers in the southern textile
mills. Again, Mr. Napoleon" Weisbord claims
to be the leader of the Fall River strike.
The organizers that really built and devel-
oped strike in Fall River were Comrades
Jim Reid, Bill Soroka, Sam Wiseman and

die or rolling wave of strikes and attempted to

The realization of the Five Year Plan is

THE struggle in the South is becoming sharp
er. The workers strengthening their
ranks and are becoming more militant every
day. From Birmingham Ala. comes the news
of mass protest of workers against white ter
ror and pledging support to the Communist
Party election campaign. Workers of the
North and South Carolinas are moving for
ward to new struggles, demanding the release
of all class war prisoners. Workers up North
are joining in one big protest demanding, mo
death sentences, no prison sentences for work
ing class fighters"
The fight is simplified one: "Class
against class" The capitalists threw off the
mask of democracy" and open fascist rule
takes its place.
Communist Party-Illegal.
The southern ruling class is becoming more
desperate. They answer to the mass protest
of the working class by new wave of terror.
Henry Story and Gilmer Brady, two Negro
Communist fighters, Ann Burlak and Mary
Dalton are charged with "inciting insurrec-
ton" and are to face the electric chair This
brings the number of workers facing the
electric chair for Communist activity, up to
six.
The police department of Atlanta issued the
following statement on the arrest: "This is
not Boston. These Communists have the
avowed purpose of helping the unemployment
situation. That's exactly what they are not
doing The Communists are attempting to
create chaotic condition in the South by
constant agitation the labor situation.
We're going to spike any such attempts and
we mean business" The daily papers in the
South, reporting the arrests see nothing "un-
usual" in this. One of the papers reports,
Marking vigorous campaign by police to
stamp out all Communist meetings in Allan
ia, the solicitor generals office drew bills to

munsts."
Yes, it is something unusual" For the
first time in the history of the South, Negro
and white workers stand united in common
struggle, challenging the rule of the capital
ist class in the South. This is an unusual
thing that makes the bosses dizzy.
Southern capitalism is ruling with an iron
hand Georgia is the outstanding example.
Here we have open fascist class rule. In
Georgia the most exploited section of the

cent of the entire population, the Negro work.
ers, are absolutely disfranchised. The Negro
workers cannot participate in any state or
local election, according to a law passed dur
ing Governor H. Smiths days. The white
workers are practically in the same condition.
One must pay So street tax, and 81 poll
tax in order to vote. No worker can afford
to pay this high price. The result naturally
is that the class of capitalists is the only one
that participates in elections. Atlanta, city
of $4,000, has 100000 Negroes who cannot
vote Sixty-three thousand are eligible voters,
but on the average, only $4,000 vote. In other
words, the employing class does not even take
the trouble to play the popular game of Great
ing illusions in the minds of the workers as
to who is the "boss."
Fight Against Fascisn.
The working class of the South is learning
more of those things every day, and that is
exactly what the bosses fear. The fight is
now on! Six workers are facing the electric
chair. Two of these are Negro workers In
this fight the bosses have as their allies, the
fascist leaders of the A. F. of L., who Of

ror during Bill Green's last tour of the South.

The industrial bourgeoisie is, as whole,

nections with the landlords, money-lenders and
merchant bourgeoise) is represented by
eral groups of politicians, including those
calling themselves liberals
section of the industrial bourgeoisie en-
deavors to use the mass revolt to gain con-
cessions from the British Government and to
embarrass its trade rivals by means of boy
colt of British goods; but at the same time
(and more and more as they dread the de-
veloping class struggle) they are enemies of
the national struggle for emancipation.
These are represented by the main leaders
of the Indian National Congress grouped in
the Swaraj or Home-Rue Party. which is
also called the Congress Party. The object of
the Indian National Congress chiefs is to
control the mass movement by maintaining
their leadership over large sections of another
class, the petty -bourgeoisie, and wherever pos
sible over the proetariat.
The petty -bourgeoisie, which in Britain is
shrunken to a small class wavering between
the bourgeosie and the working class, is in
India a very large class. 1t comprises hun
dreds of millions of peasants, and also artis-
ans; the petty-bourgeos intelligentsia (pov-

call general strike in Fall River.
The comrades fought against this policy Wig
orously but Weisbord's policy was forced on
the other comrades. The result was that the
situation became so big that Weisbord wasn't
seen around Fall River, and the other COM
rades had to work night and day to handle
the situation. If it weren't for these COM
rades the Fall River situation would have
been black eye against our movement.
Now comes Miss Dawson-she was sent to
Fall River as the union organizer for about
five months. AS result instead of building
the union she demoralized it. She didn't OBJ
tain one new member in all these months; on
the contrary, many old ones dropped out.
At the meeting of these renegades in the
Monte Pho Hall there were 25 police to pro-
tect them, 20 of our union members there to
ask questions, 10 anarchists and about five of
the yellow Weisbord group.
At this meeting Keller delivered memorial
address which greatly resembled those usually
rendered by the Rev. Dr. Thomas. When the
union members asked for the floor the po-
lice arrested them Immediately. One Polish
yorker, John Pelzcar, whose name appeared in
the renegades' leaflets, openly denied that he
had any connections with the traitors. Six
workers were arrested including the National
Org. Secy., Bill Murdoch. After the arrests
the hall was completely deserted by every
one except Weisbord and his clique.
At the union hall in n Potomska ST., the
workers waited for four hours for the arrested
workers to hear them speak.
At the meeting the workers denounced
Weisbord and Co. as traitors and renegades
of the textile workers, and pledged to fight
under the banner of the National Textile
Workers Union.
According to the capitalist court, the chief
state witnesses to appear against the arrested
workers were Wesbord, Keller, and Rubin
stein. The workers in New Bedford will build
a strong revolutionary union regardless Of
these traitors.

tionary trade union movement in America
