L
To the Daily Worker:
Signs Of the times: 145 people of
the population of 10000 Of the indus
trial town of Pittsburg, Calf, voted
for the candidates for governor Of the
three capitalist parties. The Socialist
candidate got one vote.
This town is purely proletarian,
except for d restricted subdivision
and the main street in which live the
company officials. the more prosper
Gus merchants, and a few of the
skilled "aristocracy" Of workers. This
is a good answer to the capitalist
bunk sheets which persist in trying to
maintain the illusion in the minds OF
the workers by means of the car
toons, news items, ETC., that 1.-THE
People" elect anybody. Nearly ell Of
these 145 voters were directly inter-
ested In the graft obtainable through
their candidates, including the big
boys who obtain their graft indirectly
through favors and steals for their
corporations.
The several thousand workers in
town either have no vote or the few
that do know it's no use. These few
we are rallying to vote Communist.

voted Communist, except when

the strange part of it was that We
hadn't fully realized it until that

an entire town turn out en- masse to

possessed all the people. No trace
of misery and oppression here. They
had struggled for and achieved their

tainly mean to keep it. A group of
the Young Pioneers paraded in front
of the stage and saluted us. Strange
to relate, don't think any of N1s felt
embarrassed. The whole atmosphere
and the attitude of the people was so
friendly and cordial and the welcome
SO genuine that one couldn't help but
respond to it, The fact that we
couldn't understand each others Ian
guage didn't mar the proceedings in
the least. That meeting was COM
plete success.
The people were curious for first
hand information about labor condi-
lions in America. When we candidly
admitted that large percentage OF
the American seamen, including our
selves, didn't belong to any union
whatever, their attitude seemed tc
express surprise and amusement
tinged with sympathy. In a country
where everyone belongs to a unior
it is hard for them to visualize how
anyone can possibly exist without
them. We were asked if the working

the progress the workers in Russia
had made since gaining their free
dom. We told them that, judging
from our own knowledge of condi.
tions when we entered the country
they certainly did not.

never in our most optimistic moments

we found we had sufficient time to
make a few observations. We didn't

were to be had, but the stores which
sold them were aot doing a very
thriving business. Nowhere on the

all, those kept on the job have had
their wages cut 10 cents an hour,
this will apply to about 200 men
still at work, who will in due, course
be laid off at intervals.
More Layoffs
The Stock Yards here had about

carpenters got SOC. an hour and the
laborers 40c. The Job lasted about
two months and all are laid off now

LABOR" MINISTER THOMAS ACTS
As WAR AGENT FOR IMPERIAL|STS

view Thomas admitted that the world
economic crisis was pretty dark. But
he said that the British were enter
ing the conference with Optimism"
With the world markets shrinking,
if the Imperial Conference should
achieve the impossible and weld the
dominions into a force against Amer
lean imperialist penetration, it would
worsen the crisis in the u. S. and
speed up the war danger.
An idea of how sharp world COM
petition is becoming between the
United States and Great Britain can
be CLEANED from an article in the
pro-U. S. "China Weekly Review" In
It's August 23rd issue it prints these
gems of imperialist antagonism:
"shanghai and China generally
constitute a battlefield for world
trade. Among the competitors
America and Britain are the
chief contenders in Shanghai
and the Yangtsze Valley, pre-
ViousIy known as the British
Sphere While previously British
influence in China was predomi-
nant, that situation no longer
prevails, for America has now
succeeded to Britain's position.
China now looks to Washington
for tips on the international po-
litieaI situation, rather than to
London. :. China looks to Wall
Street for future financing and
to America for technical advice.
Large British public utilities in
China, facing a non-too bright
future, look to the United States
for purchasers. The tendency is
apparent on every hand and the
chances are that present rival
ries will be accumulated as time
passes"
The same can be said of nearly
every country in Latin America. In
| the British dominions American i'm
perialism is gradually encroaching on
British spheres"
These are the facts behind the Con-
| ference. 1t is a war conference. The
British Labor government is groom
| ing the empire and the colonies for
war. At the same time it is using
| blood and iron in India, Egypt, Iraki
against the colonial masses.
Every worker should watch the
tactics of Thomas and Macdonald
and remember that we have theil
| prototypes right here--Broun, Rev
Thomas, O'Neal. In supporting the
British Labor government they sup
port and o. K. the murder of the
Indian masses by the British Labor
government. 1t is true when il
comes to war between the imper-
ialists they will split" The British
Labor government ministers win sup
port their imperialists in war, while
the Socialists will back Wall Stree

Main Problem viii Be Anglo
u. S. RivaIrieS in World
Markets

The role of the British Labor gov
eminent as the best aids of British
imperialism is being emphasized in
the present Imperial Conference. j.
H. Thomas, minister of dominions,
who was sent to Canada last year to
win trade for the British bosses, is
the publicity agent for the Confer
ence.
His job is to cover up the real pur-
poses of the meeting. Thomas talks
about peace" unity of purpose Of
the dominions and England, the de-
sire Of spreading good will to the do
minions, and such clap trap. This is
meant as pap for the workers.
An Associated Press dispatch from
London September 80 gives a pretty
good insight into the real purpose of
the Imperial Conference. The A. p.
cable says:
"English business men, alarmed
at the rapidly expanding export
trade of the United States, are
going to try to weld the British
Empire into one solid economic
bloc at the imperial conference,
which starts tomorrow (Wednes-
day)."
The same dispatch goes on to quote
the report drawn up by the imperial
conference preparation committee
which again brings out the Anglo
British antagonism:
"At present the United States
exports only percent of her to-
tai production. If she were to in
crease this by only percent this
would represent an increased
export of $350,O0o,ooo, which is
equivalent to 10 percent of the
total of British exports and
would mean additional heavy
competition for British industry
in the markets of the world"
Now, then, when you couple these
facts of struggle for markets with the
crap that Thomas puts out as peace
talk" we get some sense out of it
We can then clearly see that Mr.
Thomas and Mr.. Macdonald are the
agents of British imperialism prepar-
ing for war against American imper-
ialiSm.
Thomas in his first statement or
the conference admitted that the re-
suits of the recent naval conference
are sure to be discussed by the Brit
ish and dominion delegates wher
they reach the subject of foreign
policy defense on the agenda. Wher
imperialists talk of markets and gum
| the outcome is war.

worker was walking in this park he
was stopped by a dick and was told
not to be caught in that section again.
Place Jim Grow Signs
There have been signs placed at the
Calumet river reading: "Nigger, don't
be caught south of the river after
shutdown"
The Negroes are barred from the
north side. AT the Wabash tracks on
the south side, at the Calumet river
on the east side, they are trying to
run them all out of that section
Bosses Foster This
All of this is happening under the
administration of our Republican
mayor, r. o. Johnson, who was elected
by the Negro and white workers.
Again we see one of the men
that owns the property around
Washington Park, one Of the men
that carried around petitions to
drive the Negroes out of the east
side, man that discriminates
against Negroes, a man that
charges Negroes exorbitant rents,
is coming out on the Democratic
ticket for district commissioner.
He appeals to the Negroes to vote
Democratic and abolish the cor
rupt Republican party and prom
ises full dinner pals for the
workers.
Fake Promises
This is the same promise that Mr..
Hoover made, with the result of
100000 unemployed men starving.

was shot by Mr.. Johnson's police.

"A Negro woman's furniture was
thrown into the alley because she
could not pay rent. And the city
told her"that they did not pay rent
for anyone. This is what the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties give
the workers for their votes. All of
these promises are only illusions.
Don't be fooled by the Democratic or
Republican Cor o-called Socialist
parity phrases. Vote for the only
Party that fights for the workers, the
only Party that stands up for the
Negro workers.
