On the Anthracite Front

working class, the Communist Party On June
80, the state troopers arrested and beat up
an organizer of the N.M.U. and placed him
on $4,000 bail under four different charges
including sedition.
On July l the state troopers raided the
headquarters of the Communist Party, seized
all the literature and arrested four more or
ganizers, of the N. NJ. U. and the Communist
Party. Later they raided the private houses
of the organizers of the above organizations.
The district attorney, Owens, pledged to the
coal operators to drive the "Reds" out of the
country. The capitalist press is calling ed-
torially and otherwise on the public" to fight
"the agents of Moscow" The press is trying
to give some evidence" to the Fish "invest-
cation committee" by connecting up the Reds
with the Soviet Government.
The organizers of the N. NJ. U. and Commu-
mist Party constantly being watched and
followed by thugs and detectives. A real cam
paign Nof red scare and terror has been
launched against any individual or organiza-
ton which dares to attack the coal operators
and expose the treacherous role of the u.
M. w. leaders.
How did the miners respond to this cam
paign of terror of the bosses? The answer
splendid. AS soon as they heard about
the raids and arrests, one after the other the
to the organizers. The miners were the ones
who went to collect money and raise bail for
the arrested comrades. At special unit meet
ings the enthusiasm of the miners for the
program of the N. NJ U. and the continuation
of the struggle for legality was very high.
The miners have shown real readiness to
fight the BOSSES
Tasks Of Party and League.
1t is clear from the above that our Party
must entirely rely upon the workers. 1t must
become clear that the Party in the Anthracite
underestimate the bitterness of the bosses
and Lewis machine against the revolutionary
working class and their organizations, which
resulted in lack of preparedness against an at
tack of the BOSSES In spite of the tremen-
dous favorable objective conditions our Party

JAMES ONEAL is one of the principal lead
ers of the socialist party, and editor of its
official organ, "The New Leader" In the July
IL issue of that paper, Oneal publishes an
article entitled India, British Labor and So
calist Policy" which reveals again and more
wildly the foul depths of fascism to which
the entire Second International has descended
This article should be studied by every worker,
in order to be able to feel the hatred and con-
tempt against Oneal and his socialist" party
which their socia-fascist policy calls for.
Oneal takes as the starting point of $50
cialist" policy for British labor" the duty to
maintain the British Empire as "a matter of
life and death for all who live in England"
This he adopts as a basic principle transcend
ing all class divisions; this is his common plat
form for working class and bourgeoisie. He
declares "No party can hope for success in
Great Britain, whether it be capitalist or labor,
that does not squarely face this situation"
This is 100 per cent imperialist position
mperalist in principle. From this basis, there
can be no disagreement with Baldwin and the
conservative party, or Lloyd George and the
liberal party, except disagreements on the best
manner of achieving their common aim, the
maintenance of the empire at any and all
costs.
Social-Fascist Criticism"
Oneal "critcizes" the Macdonald Govern
ment, but his criticism" is even more reveal
ing of the common social-fascist program of
the two leaders. He sees MacDonald's "errors"
only in that he (MacDonald) "missed an OPP
portunity months ago to make some conces-
sions to nationalist views which would have
eased the situaton"-in brief, that Macdonald
erred only in inefficiency in buying off the
Indian hourgeosie with Concessions" which
would then have left him free to smash the
mass movement by using the Indian bourg-
eoise. Oneal says bluntly: at could have re-
leased most of the political prisoners which it
inherited from the Tory Government, except
ing possibly, the few who are Communist in
spired." 1t is, of course self-understood that
all uncompromising fighters against British
imperialism are Communist inspired!" And
for such (of course), even under the most IA
vorable circumstances for imperialism, $50
cialist policy" could never think of anything
but continued Imprisonment and executions
OneaPs disgusting hypocrisy about political
prisoners inherited from the Tory Govern
ment" is intended to hide the damning fact,
well known to Oneal, that most political pris-

THE tremendous advance of the Soviet Union
is world shaking event. It's Importance is
emphasized and dramatized by the decay of
world capitalism. 1t profoundly affects ideolo-
gically every class in every country. The work
ers are being inspired and stimulated to fresh
struggle against capitalism.
The capitalists, terrorized by the spectre Of
victorious socialism, redoubling their prep
arations for war against the Soviet Union, and
are attacking the working class more viciously
than ever The petty-bourgeos intellectuals
are sharpening their attitude toward the So
Wet Union in varying directions, 1t is with
the American section of these intellectuals
that this article has to do.
American Intellectuals.
Prior to the war there was sbroad streak
of radcalism among American intellectuals.
The socialist party was full of doctors, law
yers, preachers, writers, and what not. But
the war and, above all, the ten years of high
prosperity" following it, almost entirely
liquidated this intellectual radicalism The
older generation of intellectuals were silenced
into Conservatism" by good times"
American universities and colleges became
utter quagmires of bourgeois complacency and
100 per cent Americanism. Crop after crop
of sprouting intellectuals were turned out
yearly by these institutions and they slipped
into the easy berths provided for them by the
flourishing capitalism. Almost unanimously,
the intellectuals were blatant unqualified glor-
fiers of American imperialism.
The Economic Crisis.
But now, with the development of the eco
nomic crisis, the situation changes sharply.
The whole city petty bourgeoisie, including
the intellectuals, feel the pressure of the
crisis, through the wave of justification, the
falling off of their business, the decline of
stock values, the cutting of salaried employees,
etc. The "hotsy- totsy' days for the intel
lectuals are over. The position of those now
in active work is being greatly worsened. and
those coming fresh from the hundreds of uni
versties and colleges must accept poorer
conditions, or even, in many cases, slip down
into the ranks of the proetariat.
Two Trends
This economic pressure creates strong cur
rents of discomfort among the intellectuals.
This flows into two main channels-fascist
land social fascist and revolutionary. The
influence of the Soviet Union is a factor has
tening these developments
First, the fascist trend This is exempli-
fled by innumerable writings in capitalist
naners of all kinds. 1t follows the main
course of the -bourgeoisie, trying to find
the solution of its problems despite its de-

THE thesis of the Central Executive Com
mittee to the Seventh National Convention
of our Party correctly points out that, The
growing difficulties of capitalism cause the
American capitalist class to recognize in every
workers struggle direct attack upon the
capitalist system. Therefore, even the smallest
strike of workers for decent working condi-
tions is met with the whole state force of CAPT
talism."
The recent attack by state troopers on the
Uotiohal Miners Union and the Communist
Party in the Anthracite bares out the correct
ness of the statement of the thesis of the Cen
trail Committee.
Conditions Grow Worse.
In spite of the apologists of the American
imperialists. the Lovestone renegades who still
speak about the reserve power of American
imperialism and who use the New York Times
MONDAY, July y to SANDER our Party and
the Comntern. we find the following fact to-
day in America: The Anthracite miners work
part time and can hardly make $3.50 day
when working. The Anthracite miners refuse
to be starved out and organize in fight for
better conditions.
The five year agreement which expires Sep
TENDER LIST, causes the coal operators and their
servants, the fascist leaders of the United
Mine Workers, to look for remedies" to pre-
vent I0e tSNOiJ Oh the AIllHrdclJS coal Mill
ers. The coal operators are not satisfied yet
with the present miserable conditions of the
miners, and ask for reduction in wages of
80 per cent. The bosses know they have moth
ing to fear for the Boylan-Cappelini
gang.
Bosses See Fight Coming.
The only opposition they expect to their
treacheres, and they openly admit so, is from
the National Miners Union and the Commu-
mist Party. The bosses fear the discomfort and
rising militancy of the Anthracite miners.
They know the National Miners Union is in
the field and won't allow the selling out of
the miners. The bosses realize that the Com
munist Party will and is modifying the miners
in the struggle for better conditions against
the coal operators and the United Mine Work
ers leaders.
Thus the coal operators have already, with
the help of the state militia and coal and
iron police, launched campaign of terror
against the N. NJ U. and the leader Of the

aspect of the civil disobedience campaign in

The spread of the No-Tax Campaign is caus-

SOCIALIST ONEAL APPROVES
|M'DONALD'S INDIA MURDERS

oners in India are held under the ordinance
proclaimed in 1924, under MacDonald's first
government, with the Socialist Lord Olivier
at the head of the Indian office. The present
is not MacDonald's first experience in sup
pressing the Indian revolution in arbitrary i'm
prisonment and blood His is veterans hand
at the business.
They Protect Imperialism.
Oneal complains that 'the imperialist rela-
ton of England and India is the creation Of
British capitalism" and not of the Labor gov
eminent. Yes, of course. Did Oneal expect
British capitalism to create anything else but
"imperialist relations!" Or did he think, per-
haps, that capitalism would create socialist
relations" between the metropolis and the COL
ones? The destruction of imperialist rela-
tions is the business of the working class, the
proletariat. But precisely the Labor Party,
the Macdonald Government, Oneal, the Amer
lean socialist party, and the whole Second In
ternational, are exerting all their strength to
preuent the working class from attacking i'm
perialisnl, they are using all their influence
and power to protect Imperialism, and do not
hesitate to shoot, kill, burn, flog, MAIN, and
imprison all who fight against Imperialism.
The browning infamy of Oneals article is
his attempt to justify the Macdonald murders
in India, on the plea that by doing the bloody
business in Asia the Macdonald Government is
able to keep in office and thus "delay" the
coming of fascism in Europe Not only is
Macdonald and the Second International doing
the executioners work of Imperialism in Asia,
but they are working hand in hand with fas-
csm in Europe, in every country busily en-
gagged in providing fascism with "bloodess
victories" victories for fascism in which the
suppression of the working class is done pri-
marily by the Second International itself. In
Germany, in Austria, in Poland, in the Bal
kans. in France. IN England-everywhere the
parties of the Second International are carry
ing out the first steps of the program of fas-
cism, masking their dirty work with the BAN
ner of socialism. They are socal-fascsts.
Oneal, by his article, has helped to expose
the American socialist party a true and in
tegral part of the whole international crew
of servants of imperialism. Let all workers
be made to understand the true nature of the
socialist party as tool of Imperialism, as
a socal-fascist organization.
Let the August LIST demonstrations, against
war, be at the same time demonstrations
against the Oneals and MacDonalds, and
against the whole Second International.
