 When manufacturing competitors have made price comparisons with ALLsTATEs, they fnvari- ably have used their "second line" tires for the purpose. It is true their prices are just about the same as ALLsTATE prices. All of which is most com plimentary-fo ALLsTATEs first line" standards call for so much more in quality that you cannot help buying them; especially when, as our friendly manufacturing competitors con- fess, ALLSTATEs cost no more than their second line" tires. On the other hand, if price is prime consideration, Sears Roebuck's DEARBORN sR is as good as any 'second line" tire to be had, and costs far less.

Here's the Best AdUice We Gan Give Tire Buyers

All recognized brands are good. But naturally, just as human nature varies, so do tires. Conse- quently some are better than others If the second line" prices are satisfactory, the same amount of money will buy first line quality in ALLsTATEs with all they provide in the economy of greater service But if second line" serves your purpose, then by all means buy the 'second Gne'' tire that costs the least-which is Sears, Roebuck's DEARBORN sR. Our great tire volume, combined with the most economical method of distribu- ton yet devised, makes these savings possible.

tonary power, the Jewish Daily Forward, which
is also responsible for the degradation of the
Workmen's Circle, and which was characterized
by the October conference in the following
words; ut the Forward has sunk to the low

become the evil spirit of the labor movement.

of the bosses, and the sentiments of the BOSSES"
This spirit has now been spread also over

Emergency Convention

With this agreement the left wingers came
to the emergency convention. 1t was for the
sake of this specific point-admitting all the
applicants without further obstacles--that the
committee of the left members agreed to the
agenda OF the emergency convention an
agenda which, in itself, is blot OIL the record
of any workers organization. The convention
was not only to elect new executive commit
tee but also to decide upon a special amend
ment to the constitution of the Independent to
the effect that the national convention was pro-
hibited from endorsing any workers party or
workers paper and was generally not allowed
to establish relations with the labor movement
1t was very difficult for the left wing to
agree to such an agenda. The committee, how
ever, yielded on this point for the sole purpose
OF taking the case out of the courts and putting
the question before the branches.
Events proved that even then the left wing
had not realized how mean and criminal the
so-cslled cleft" and "progressives" can be when
they surrender to the old betrayers of the labor
movement--the Forward Socialists, and the fat
Workmen's Circle bureaucrats. The emergency
convention took place on January the 18th.

The Program of the New Order

devoted to mutual aid in the form Of sickness,
insurance and death insurance, the Order new
ertheless does not confine itself to the narrow
limits of benefits" and Cemetery" but it lives
and works together with the fighting section
of the working class. 1t declares itself to be
an integral part of the proletarian class-front
against capitalism. 1t declares that it is the
task of the working class to overthrow the
capitalist system and to build in it's place a
Socialist system. 1t declares that the road to
the Socialist system is the class struggle in
all its phases 1t is ready to go with the fight
ing workers in strikes, in the political move
ment, in all the struggles against capitalism
(b) The Order recognizes that, having its
specific task, it nevertheless supports with it's
means and membership the struggles of all the
economic and political organizations OF the
working class that follow the line of the class
struggle. Among those organizations, the Com
munist Party occupies the first place in the
political field and the Trade Union Unity
League in the economic field. The Order also

The Injunction

The injunction, and the Vaccinations con-
nected with the court hearings one of the
blacklist pages in the history of the betrayal of
working class interests. No lie was too shame
full, no SANDER too hideous, no bribery too low
for the clique which applied all this under the
direct leadership of it's former foe that had
suddenly become their advisor and friend-the
Jewish Daily Forward and the Workmen's Cir
Gle. Their plan was to demoralize the thousands
of members who had left the Workmen's Circle.
Their outlook was to drag out the hearings in
definitely to create uneasiness and uncertainty,
to split the forces of the progressive and left
wing elements that waited to be admitted into
the Independent. They thus hoped to evade the
left danger.
In order to take the matter out of the capt.
talist courts, in order to put the question
squarely before the members of the lndepend-
ent, the executive committee of the left and
progressive members of the Workmens Circle
decided to agree to compromise. 1t yielded
to the demand of the right wingers of the In
dependent Workmen's Circle concerning a spe-
cial emergency convention with a specific
agenda-a convention which was against the
statutes of the order, which, however, was
agreed to under one definite condition officially
recognized by the courts, namely, that all mem
bers whose applications were already in the
hands of the national office of the Independent
should be Immediately admitted into the Order
without further trouble.

THE
INTERNATIONAL
WORKERS. ORDER

THE INTERNATIONAL WORKERS ORDER
started it's official existence on April 3, 1880,
when the preliminary charter was issued. On
June 10, $780, the international Workers Order
received a permanent charter and since July
1, it has functioned as fraternal insurance
organization. Beginning with the latter date,
the national office is responsible for sick and
death benefits of members who paid in for the
months of May and June.
Every worker must become member of the
international Workers Order
The International Workers Order is a fra
tenal organization. 1t provides its membership
with sick benefit, with medical aid during sick
ness and with other means of mutual aid that
can be obtained under the existing system. At
the same time, however, the International
Workers Order looks upon itself as upon a
section of the working class and is intimately
connected with all the workers struggles. 1t
seeks to be a section of the proletarian class
front.
The international Workers Order is not a
political party Nevertheless, it is most actively
interested in the struggle of the working class
against capitalism. 1t therefore supports every
proletarian action which mobiizes the working
class in it's struggle for it's class interests
The International Workers Order is not an
economic organization. Its direct task is insur-
ance work for its members. Nevertheless,
it is vitality interested in the economic
struggles of the working class and it supports
those workers organizations and workers
struggles which aim at improving the situation
of the workers and at freeing the working class,
in the long run, from capitalist rule,
The International Workers Order is a fra
ternal organization for sick and death benefit.
Nevertheless, it cares for the cultural in
terests of it's members The National
Executive Committee of the International
Workers Order is now busy on a program of
a ramified cultural activity among it's members
and branches. The Order will presently organ
ize a cooperative publishing house. 1t is MAX
ing preparations for the publication of month
ly magazine. 1t is preparing outlines for lec-
, lures on social topics. 1t is preparing a COR
respondence course in various subjects. In the
course of the winter the Order will arrange a
number of lecture tours. The Order is in touch
with the Jewish workers schools, with the aim

The Betrayal by the Leaders of
the Independent w. C.

When the conference had convened in Octo-
Der, it had no high opinion about the so-called
centrists and the right wing in the Independent
Workmen's Circle. 1t knew that they were a
backward element devoid of initiative or cour-
age. 1t knew that their left phrases, their ac-
quescing in resolutions endorsing the left move
ment were neither honest nor earnestly meant
STILL the conference believed that the interests
of the organization as such, the will to
strengthen the Independent Workmen's Circle
the will to become an important component part
of the labor movement, would force these ee-
ments to carry out the pledges solemnly made
before the entire working class; to open wide
the doors of the Independent Workmens Circle
before all those who left the Workmens Circle.
1t soon became obvious that the conference
had erred. 1t had not taken into account the
lengths to which a combination of the right
clique of the Independent Workmen's Circle
with the damagers from the Jewish Daily For
ward and the Workmens Circle bureaucrats can
go in trying to break the labor movement. They
knew that, for years and years, there had eX-
listed an enmity between the Workmen's Circle
and the Independent Workmen's Circle, and al
though it knew perfectly we'll that when it is
necessary to fight against the left wing move
ment, the right wing of all groups and cliques
may form united front, so that union of
the right wing leadership or the WorkmenS
Circle and the Independent Workmen's Circle
was not at all impossible; still it had in mind
that, should only one part of the workers who
left the Workmen's Circle join the Independent
Workmen's Circle, these elements, combined
with the left wing membership of the Independ-
ent, would soon form power that would make
to nought all the Vaccinations of the traitors.
The conference had not foreseen into what
an abyss of swindle betrayal and meanness the
bureaucrats of the right clique can sink when
it is necessary to put stones in the path of the
class struggle of the working masses
The clique of the Independent soon began to
put obstacles in the way of new members and
new branches joining the Independent When
they saw that, in spite of everything the work.
ers were storming the gates of the Order and
that it was almost impossible to halt their
march, the right bureaucrats attempted to seize
the national office by force, compelling the
Board of Appeals to take over the functions of
the National Executive Committee When this
trick failed, they turned to those who always
protect and father the right cliques. They ap-
pealed to the capitalist courts.

LIVE, assembled representatives of 157 branches
of the Workmen's Circle and Independent
Morkmen's Circle, declare solemnly, before the
Fntire working class of America and the world
proletariat, that the time has come and the
conditions are ripe for the building of a sep
pirate proletarian fraternal order which is to
Follow the line of the class struggle and to
unite those thousands of workers who can
lbear no longer the yoke of the existing fra
lternal orders whose sole aim 1t is to keep the
workers away from struggle and to aid the
bosses.
On October II, IL and IS, 1929, a conference
Iof the left wing branches of the Workmen's
Circle was held in New York The conference
declared that the "time has come when every
lone who is in earnest about the interests of
the working class, and who wishes to struggle
against the bosses and their influence, must
shake the dust of the Workmen's Circle off
his feet"
! The conference also pointed out the reasons
why it was no more possible for class conscious
workers to remain in the Workmen's Circle.
! "The Workmen's Circle" said the conference,
(which was established under the flying banner
of the class struggle, which had written in it's
program the abolition of the capitalist system.
and which therefore gained the love and respect

ing class"
The conference was confronted with great
problem as to where to go. There were opinions
current to the effect that it was necessary i'm
mediately to establish a left wing fraternal or
der. There prevailed, however, different opin-
ion to the effect that it was necessary and pos
sible to join the Independent Workmen's Circle
The conference proclaimed this in a manifesto
n the following words:
at would be possible for US to form our
own new workers order which would be
what such an organization ought to be.
We have realized, however, that there is
a possibility for us to transfer ourselves
into another order, which in the last years
has followed a course Numerically opposed
to the course of the Workmen's Circle and
which, we hope, may become real home
for the left and progressive wing which is
leaving the Workmens Circle"
