Daily Worker:
The Golden Age of Pericles is
now with us again. This time it is
not Athens, but the rather dirty in
dustrial burg of Camden, New Jer-

how to sentence workers who fight

Modern Sage.
The modern sage is Mr.. Shoe
maker, one of the "heads" of the
RCA Victor Radio Co. Says this
renounded philosopher: Depression,
there is no depression. The pres
ent depression is only psychology
cal one. 1t is not real at all. The
R.C.A. Victor is going to hire 1000
additional men beginning August
1st."
This is the essence of Mr.. Shoe
makers recent interview, printed
widely in all languages of the bour-
geois press late in July.
Few Hired.
Workers from Cleveland, New
York or other distant cities, need
not rush to Camden looking for a
job for they won't get any. Very
few of the 1000 have been hired,
and very few are likely to be hired,
though thousands have applied with
out results.
Bosses viii Do Him Honor.
Universities no doubt will now
rush to honor the Sage of Camden
to confer the usual degrees. 1t is
admitted that such gems of wisdom
are rare indeed. But such gems
will not fill the stomachs of hungry
men and women and their children.

New Attempt at Terror.

NEW YORK.--"It appears that
the courts have been mobilized in
the Gastonia case to terrify the tex
tile workers in their new strike
struggle at Bessemer City," declares
J. Louis Engdahl, General Secre-
tary, International Labor Defense,
that organized the defense in the
Gastonia case.
"The conviction was secured last
October, after Judge Barnhill had
declared to the jury that the testi-
mony of witnesses could be i'm
peached if they expressed a lack
of belief in god. He also declared
that Communists could not expect
the same fairness in his court as a
republican or democrat. 1t was
these instructions to the highly
prejudiced jury, resulting in the
judicial lynching that followed when
the guilty verdict was returned,
that formed the basis for the appeal
to the North Carolina Supreme
Court.
Jail For Opinions.
"This court has now upheld the
lower court, which means that any
worker failing to register the
proper religious and political quail
fications in the courts of North
Carolina can be, railroaded to the
electric chair or to long terms of
Imprisonment, no matter what the
facts in the case may be.
Originally the Gastonia case con-
stituted an attempt by the textile
mill owners courts of North Caro-
lima to send 16 strikers and organ
izers, including three women, to the
electric chair. This attempted
wholesale murder of workers was
frustrated by the world protest or
ganized under the leadership of the
international Labor Defense, that
reached nearly the proportions of
the world campaign to save the
lives of Sacco and Vanzetti.

Court decision will be appealed

the words of the bosses, who, under
the pretense of abolishing the jobs,
are firing men, particularly those
men who are within year or two
of being pensioned, having been in
service 18 or 19 years.
Men Scrapped.
After having paid into the relief
fund for years, these men are now
thrown on the scrap heap. We dc

fired the men in service long time
it hires new young workers, paying
them less, of course.
Formerly when worker was fur

then existed tried to get the same

Now no such a thing exists.
Porters Not Paid.
Red-cap porters are not paid a

Explaining that Democratic Senators

own actions behind curtain OF propa-

In view of the assaults on the Senate
tariff bill emanating from the Demo-
cratic propaganda bureau under the
names of individual Senators" Watson
said, 1T is Illuminating to examine the
votes cast by the Democratic Senators
during the months they delayed action
on this bill and thus contributed SO
largely to business unsettlement ana
consequent unemployment"
His statement issued through the Re
publican national committee, said 526
Democratic votes had been cast Tor
rate increases and 484 against de-
creaSeS.
The Indianan said the record showed
that some of those who have aSSalled

Senate by an overwhelming majority.
He voted 81 times for increases i'll rates
and an even dozen times against de-

1.-The Democratic whip, Senator Shep-
pard of Texas, compiled an even more
formidable record. He supported 81
rate increases and cast his vote against

Senator Wagner of New York voted
10 times for increases and % times

He said they were Bratton of New
