The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1930-06-21

THE industrial centers of New Jersey are
scenes of the results of the great eco
nomic crisis now shaking America and the en-
tire world. quarter of million able
bodied men walk the streets searching in vain
for work. The plants operating have
turned the screw of speed-up several more
turns and workers having their life
burned out
The conditions Of the past few years are
now memory, with the bosses savagely cut
ting wages, lengthening the hours of work,
taking on young workers and women to re-
place adult male workers. Still more savagely
do the bosses prepare to suppress any symp-
tom of revolt-organzation. Fascism with
the guise of bourgeois democracy is an every
day reality There is frenzied activity in the
few shipyards that are working and in the
airplane and munition factories scattered
throughout New Jersey-the contribution of
New Jerseys bosses to preparations for the
speedily approaching imperiahst war.
Industrial New Jersey Important to Wall St
An election coming at this time means a
great deal-to the ruling capitalist class and
the exploited working class. The bosses-the
Wall St. bankers-know the Importance of in
dustrial New Jersey in their plans for fascist
suppression of the workers and for war prep
aration Hence they are confronted by two
real issues, and direct executive control of the
political posts
If in the past the bankers were content to
have a "sniveling prof." as they dubbed Will
son, run their government apparatus for them
even during such a major critical period as
war period, now they feel the need for more
direct governmental control And their choice,
Morrow, combines ideally all the necessary
qualities of an imperialst-fascist statesman
who halls from their top ranks. His banker
imperialist qualities are being proudly emu
merated in his campaign. His part in the last
world war was so considerable that Dawes
wrote about him: Dwight Morrow was a man
who without accepting a military commission
performed work of great military and eco
nomic value to the A. E. F. and to the Allies"
In 1925 he was elected chairman of the Air
craft Board and drafted the military aircraft
policy for American imperialism. As ambas-
sador to Mexico he firmly cemented the rela-
tionship between Wall st. and the petty
bourgeois fascist government and tried to
smash the Mexican working class and organ
lied peasantry whose fight was menacing the
profits of Wall st. in Mexico, Then to re
ward him for his imperialist services he was
among the delegation sent to the London
Naval Conference, where amid alliances, Sc
cret treaties and jockeying for position in the
coming imperialist his skill and training
as an imperialist served him well Last but
not least, the gentleman from Wall Street was
and still is a partner in the House Of Nor
| gan-the chief imperialist group.
