XII.-InfIuence of Soviet Developments ii
America.

America.
The anti-Soviet campaign now in swing in
the United States is at the same time an act
Of war and preparation for war against the
Soviet Union. 1t intends the support of the
present economic war of American capitalism
against the u. S. S. r. It is also an effort to
manufacture holy war myth to enable the
capitalists to change their economic war into
a military one.
The capitalists are the natural-class-
enemies of the Soviet Union. They need not
agitate themselves against the Soviets. They
must agitate the working masses and the poor
farmers. If the capitalists would have to agi-
tate their own class, they could not operate
this campaign with all the phrases they are
using now. In that case they would have to
speak more openly about the revolutionary in
fluence of Soviet development on 'their"
workers. They would have to point to the
dangers created for the continued exploitation
Of the American workers by the example of
socialist construction in the Soviet Union
They would have to call upon the capitalists
to unite for the task of keeping their workers
down. Such a propaganda, however, is I'M
necessary. 1t would be carrying coal to New
Castle. The capitalists are always united in
their efforts to keep the workers down. Their
problem is to talk the workers into keeping
themselves down. The anti-Soviet propaganda
therefore, is designed to win the workers for
Che struggle against the Soviet Union.
This aim puts its stamp on every phase of
The anti-Soviet campaign. To the workers the
capitalists cannot openly say that they expect
them to fight against their own interests.
They cannot tell the workers that they want
them to fight for the right and the chance of
the capitalists to coin profits out of their toll
They cannot tell the workers that the in
tended capitalist war against the Soviet Union
is a goth century edition of the opium wars
of Britain against China. Then the British
poison pedders caused their government to
make war on China to force the Chinese vic
tins Of opium to continue buying this dope
from the British pedders. Now the capitalists
are intending to make war on the victims Of
their own exploitation in order to force them
to continue submitting to this exploitation.
The capitalists never do their own fighting.
Therefore, it is not enough for them to or
ganize the fight against the workers. They
must find ways to get the victims Of their ex-
ploitation to fight against themselves. This
need produces the political anomaly of CAPT
talist in the pose of fighting for the interests
of "F1is'' workers. The American capitalists
make believe that they do not agitate and
fight against the Soviets because capitalist

TOMORROW'S CAME TO SETTLE LAURELS
 OF NAUCY LEAGUE
Crescents Meet Falcons at 4 O'ClOck-JOe WargO and Beans" Milesky Rival Hurlers

Naugatuck, Sept 18--With the championship of the Naugatuck Amateur league hanging in the bal ance as well as permanent possess sion of the league trophy, the first place Crescents and second place Falcons will play their most inn portant game of the current cam- paign tomorrow afternoon at Re- creation field. One game is the margin separating the two teams as they clash in this crucial con- test. Each having won the pen nant twice previously, victory in the titular race this season will gain for the 1891 champions per- .manent possession of the handsome / silver trophy.
 Ringers?
 Whether or not the Crescents : will again use ringers" in their lineup is not known. Since their recent victory in which other than regular eligible men were used in the lineup, the league leaders have been criticised considerably by fans. Because the Pastimes and Orioles previously used ineligible pldyGTS dUu were AOI PuiliSiC0b thC Crescents felt they had the right to do likewise. The Falcons have played up to the rules all season and will play their regular nine against the Crescents tomorrow. Their protest regarding the recent win of the Crescents with ineligible men playing, was turned down by the league board of governors. With rivalry between the two lead ing hines at intense pitch and with the Falcons having an exceptional opportunity to gain tie for first place by winning, the coming bat tie is attracting wide interest.
 Orioles Play
 In the second contest of the aft ernoon the championship Beacon Falls Orioles, hopelessly out of the titular race this season, will battle the last place Pastimes. This game will be an interesting affair as these two clubs have mad dispute of their own as to which will finish the campaign in the cellar posi- ton. The opening contest will be- gin at p. m. The leagues two foremost twirlers, Mulesky and Wargo, will oppose each other in a mound duel in the big battle of the day. The second contest is slated to get under way at o'clock.

BIG LEAGUE TEAMS BATTLE FOR FIRST
 DIVISION BIRTHS
Jablon0wski Wins 2 to 1 Game Over Red Sox- Giants Beat Cardinals ' to 2
By DIXON STEWART

NCAutcO GEcs8 SthM OOErcSpouuGutl
 New York, Sept 1S.-(UP)-The 1881 major league baseball season is over insofar as competition for the championships is concerned but several interesting fights still are in progress.
 In the American league only the league leading Philadelphia Attn letics and the fourth place Cleve- land Indians are certain to retain their present berths. Washington and New York are staging duel for runner-up honors and at pres ent are tied for second place. Four other clubs, St Louis, Detroit, Bos- ton and Chicago are punched with in two and one-half games in the second division with any one of them likely to finish at the top of second division or in the cellar.
 Quite 8 Struggle.
 Competition in the National tied with the first place St Louis Cards. second place Giants and eighth place Cincinnati Reds the only clubs unlikely to be busted from their berths. Brooklyn, fighting to take third place from Chicago, is itself threatened by the fifth place Pittsburg Pirates, while Boston and Philadelphia are com peting for sixth place.
 The New York Tanks tied Wash ington for second place in the American league yesterday by talk ing a double bill from St Louis, 17 to 0 and to 1. Ruth and Dickey pounded out two homers apiece.
 Art Herring pitched Detroit to a 3 to l victory over Washington, allowing only g hits and pitching shutout ball until the ninth.
 Boston dropped into a tie with Chicago for eighth place by divid- ing a doubleheader with Cleveland. Moore pitched the Red Sox to a 9 to 2 triumph in the opener, but Jablonowski won a pitching duel from Milt Gaston to give Cleve- land the second tilt, to l. Earl Webb, Boston outfielder, hit two doubles to set a new major league record of 65 in a single season.
 Ninth Inning Rally
 After throwing away a two-run lead in the first half of the ninth inning, the Chicago Cubs came back to score in their own half and defeated Brooklyn, { to 8.
 Pittsburg and Boston divided a doubleheader. Tom Zachary out pitched Bill Harris to give the Braves the first game, 1 to 0, but the Pirates came back to take the second, to 2.
 Philadelphia broke a ten game losing streak to defeat Cincinnati 8 to 8.
 St Louis, with nothing at stake, lost 2 to 2 verdict to the New York Giants.

United Press Stan CorrespOndent)
 New York, Sept 1S-Not since Steve Brodie did his back jackknife off Brooklyn bridge has any one shown such superb nerve as did Promoter Jimmy Johnston today when he announced the scale of prices for the October engage ment between Jack Sharkey and Primo Camera.
 Johnston, without even so much as a blush, said that ringside seats would retail at $15.75. That's the price for a single solitary seat. mind you, and not for a whole row. This is the highest charge o1 the year in this vicinity, and just ten dollars short of the top price asked at Cleveland with Max Schmeling defening his title against Young Stribling.
 Back Home In Indiana
 Johnston's nerve become even more astounding when you remem- Der that the ringside seats will not be ringside seats at all, but placed behind the patron press, those trick pews invented by the late Tex Rickard, and reserved for those boys and girls who must be seen, no matter the cost.
 It would be interesting to know just how Johnston figured the fight would be worth $15.75 to any body. And that goes for the fight CTS closest relatives. Personally, we wouldn't par s15.75 to see Hor- atious reenact his defense of the bridge or Goliath in a return bout with David. But if we did, wed demand nothing less than Morris chair plunked right up there in the ring with the fighters. They never would park us on a dinky little funera parlor chair, way back in the bushes where our view of the proceedings was obstructed by Eugenie hats. cigar smoke, six foot-two rackateers, and a bunch of over-stuffed politicians.
 It might, however. be a lucky break to have your view obstructed when Sharkey and Camera go through their paces. For if Sharkey fights as he did against Mickey

Walker, and Camera fights as he has ever since he arrived in this country, it will be even worse than the recent Rosenb1oom-S Slattery affair. The Rosenbloom thing, you will remember, was the worst light in history.
 Sharkey, who talks a swell fight. says he expects to knock Primo kicking before the eighth round. That is the same thing he said before the Dempsey bout, his meet ing with Schmeling, and his recent joust with Walker. It's high time the man lived up to some of his promises.
 Jack also says he will quit the ring if beaten by Camera. Those are superflous words, Jack. If Primo beat you, you won't have to quit the ring--the ring will quit you.
 Camera may not be the most graceful fighter in the world but he certainly packs the most tre- mendous punch. It's so powerful that more than half his knockout victims went down without being hit on a more vital spot than the elbow.
 There's only one thing certain about the world series-Jfm Bot tomley will be a better first base man than he was last year. He couldn't be worse.
