Rescue the Pan,
Pacific Trade
Union Secretary
BY S. U. LIN (Shanghail

THE secretary of the Pan-Pacific Trade Unions
and his wife, who is seriously ill., have now
been in prison for months, following their arrest
by the police in the International Settlement in
Shanghai They were both delivered over to the
Chinese military authorities and are now con-
fined in one of the most terrible prisons in China
in Sutcho Their lives are in danger 1t is not
only that the Kuomintang authorities will prob
ably condemn them to DEATH there also exists
the possibility that, as is usual in Chinese pris-
sons, they will be tortured to death. Tens of
thousands of revolutionary champions have al
ready been executed by the counter revolutionary
Kuomintang generals.
The arrest and Imprisonment of the Pan-Pa-
cifc Trade Union secretary is not only an act
Of provocation on the part of the Chinese au-
thorities, but conspiracy Of the international
bourgeosie against the revolutionary labor move
ment in general. The English Secret Service, the
French Surete, the Japanese police and the
Chinese Kuomntang provocateurs are working
together in order to choke the revolutionary
movement in the Far East in blood. 1t is there
fore no mere coincidence that at the same time
in Japan all the functonaries of the Left Hio-
kikei and hundreds Of revolutionary workers
we're arrested; that in Indo-China nearly all the
members of the c. c. of the Communist Party
we're thrown into prison and hundreds and thou
sands of revolutionary fighters arrested; that at
the same time hundreds of Communists and rev.
dictionary workers and peasants were arrested
in Singapore, in Korea in the Philippines.
In this campaign against the revolutionary
labor movement the vilest means are employed.
Use is made of forgeries, provocation, torture,
etc. Documents, alleged to have been found In
the house of the secretary of the Pan-Pacific
Trade Unions, are published. The only surprs-
ing thing about these documents is the naivete
and lack of inventive power they reveal. These
documents" consist in part Of material which
was printed months ago in the official organ of
the Pan-Pacific Trade Union Secretariat, which
appears in four languages. They are now pre-

SPIES EXPOSED

The Communist Party has exposed the toLo"-
ing SPIES and warns all workers and WORKERS
organizations against them:
JOSEPH L. LoSOIK louis Lasky), of Toledo,
Ohio: self-confessed stool-pigeon, who has been
reporting to a spy agency, first in Toledo and
later in Detroit He is q years old, native born,
auto trimmer by trade, and heavy dr1nker
.- G. J. ALLEN GakewelD, at first of Toledo,
Ohio, but at present probably in Detroit, Mich;
head of the spy agency, or one OF its inter-
mediary agents, to whom Losoik was sending his
reports. Descripton-about 80 years old, Amer
ican, 5 foot inches in height, blond hair, blue
eyes
RAY COOPER Edward Cooper, at first of
Detroit, Mich, but now probably in Cincinnati,
Ohio; led the police in Detroit in the arrest OF
several Negro comrades. Cooper is a Negro OF
about 35 years of age, about foot inches IN
height, quite heavy set. He was member also
of the Ex-Servicemen's League.
The Communist Party of the U. S. A. has ex-
PEELED from its ranks L. Colow Geonid Nicol-
off. former Section Organizer Of Toledo, Ohio,
for right wing petty-bourgeois opportunism and
gross violations of Party tactics, policies and
discipline.
The outstanding example of his un-Commu-
mist and anti-proletarian actions being the we'll
established fact admitted by himself in his ap-
peal to the Central Control Commission that,
knowingly and deliberately, he accepted money
from republican politician, member police vice
squad, for the filing of Communist candidates,
whose running the Republican machine con-
sidered to their advantage against an opposing
capitalist candidate of the social-demagogue
type.
It is also characteristic Of Collow, that he
permitted Diana Ginsberg to remain on the Sec
tl,ofh no ntainnd friend
" relations with her brother the member OF
police vice equad and Republican politician, from
whom he got the money through Diana Gins
berg.
OF course, Diana Ginsberg has also been ex-
PEELED from the Party.
Such people have no place in the Communist
Party nor in any other workers organization.

Edisons that Never
IncOrDOrated

We don't think much Of Carlyle, but he once
said something:
THAT one person die ignorant who had capa-
city for knowledge; that I call tragedy though
it happen twenty times minute, as by some
computation it does
What was Edison? The product of ascending
capitalist development. And his death comes in
historic connection with capitalist decay. The
electric light would have been invented by some
body named differently If Edison had never lived
Nor could Edison have invented 1t had not
ancient civilizations given this age the heritage
Of their inventions, the alphabet, mathematics
etc. Without a Benjamin Franklin, Edison
would not have been playing with electricity.
Had not. ages ago, someone discovered the full
crum and lever, or the smelling Of metals, we
would still be savages living in wigwams and
mud huts.
Capitalism Incorporated Edison. Edison is
listed on the Stock Exchange.
Capitalism points with pride" at this one lone
blossom on its tree of life, now rottng at the
roots. Yet it never says a word about the genius
it STILES, chokes and murders in thousands Of
men and women who would, under other cir
cumstances, be as great or greater.
Capitalism puts out the light in million
brains, and makes the artist. the poet, the man
Of science, its paid wage laborer," as Marx. said
Even in Edison's laboratory, as in nearly every
factory (the General Electric, for example), the
worker who really invents anything is cheated
out Of It, his genius is recompensed only by his
wage his invention patented In the name Of
the company.
More, thousands upon thousands Of inventions
are TOO GOOD and are suppressed N"cause
they cannot be monopolized; or VIC ~ luce
TOO MUCH; or would require new nery
to be installed--so they are 'o"'-"d in the
vaults Of the monopolist corporations
Thus capitalism is as much AGAINST tech
meal progress in the stage of its historical decay
as it was in favor of such progress in the stage
of its historical rise out Of feudalisnl. ~
Socialism in the Soviet Union Is making use
of all the heritage Of capitalism that lends to
technical progress, and is developing and NOT
depressing ALL It's potential Edisons. In America,
potential Edisons are committing suicide every
day, driven insane by a social system in which
producers Of too much food" are starving by
millions!
We may remember Edison as the one who
invented the electric light But capitalism is
keeping millions of poor in the darkness of IL
literacy they cannot read by the electric light.
1t speeds more millions to such WEAKNESS in the
shops that they have no strength to study
And SO, also Edison will be remembered as
the man who brought us electric light bills four
times as high as they should be for the benefit
Of bankers who incorporated him in life and
even capitalized his death.

By TOM JOHNSON

Not week passes without Southern papers
reporting armed conflicts between individual
Negro share choppers and their landlords. These
individual combatS as well as the bloody mass
struggle waged at Camp HILL indicate the gath
ering storm of revolt which the present cond-
tons of mass starvation are generating on the
Southern countryside. -
Last year, the Southern troopers sang little
song whose refrain vent
"11c cotton and zoe meat
How is the poor man going to eat"
This year cotton on the farms is selling for
under 5c-less than one third of what it cost the
cropper to produce it. The result is clear
impoverishment and starvation on mass scale,
whole generation OF children permanently
stunted through the lack Of proper food, the
standard of living of the Negro people forced
down below Chinese levels.
The whole policy of the Southern landowning
sented to an astonished public as secret docu-
ments" new "Zinoviev" letters. The press hire
lings of English Japanese and French imperial
ism, headed by Woodhead, are conducting an
atrocious campaign Of Indictment against the
arrested trade union secretary Woodhead, who
is out for blood, is demanding the death penalty.
This same Woodhead wrote book on China,
which appeared In 1926 in which he called upon
the imperalist powers to exterminate two mil
lion Chinese In order to crush the national
movement, as later 1t would cost the lives of
fifteen million Chinese. This bloodthirsty agent
of the British Secret Service who has been active
for 80 years in China on behalf Of his paymas-
tiers, is now calling for the death penalty.
The life of an honest, brave revolutionary
fighter is in danger! This trade union secretary
who has done much towards developing the revo-
lutionary trade union movement in the Far
East is in danger of death. 1t is the duty of the
international proletariat to wrest this fighter
from the clutches Of international class justice
from the fangs Of bloodthirsty Imperialism, and
to raise aloft the banner Of international prole-
tartan solidarity

WEDDING DECREASE
AGITATES TURKEY
Plural Marriage Renewal
SuggeSted-DoCtor Fights
Matrimony Campaign.

BY the Associated Press.
ANGORA, Turkey.-A great decrease
In the number of marriages has been
agitating Turkey.
Saith Boy, deputy in the Grand Ma
tionsl Assembly, has expressed his opin-
ion that plural marriages should again
be allowed Tin behalf of the thousands
and thousands of Turkish women who
have failed to find husbands since the
one-wife law went into effect"
A Bachelors Society to End Bachelor
dom" has been formed by the New Turks
of Istanbul. 1t will inaugurate pro-
ceedings with a "get-tOgethsr' ball for
unmarried men and women. 1t is hoped
that acquaintanceships thus formed may
lead to weddings.
Members of the society will give lee
lures and write for the papers on the
advantages of wedlock. The society will
spread propaganda against the present
first generation of the Turkish bachelor
girls.
Replying to Saith Bey, the dean of
Turkish doctors, BeSsim Omer PaSha
argues not only against polygamy, but
against any encourags of marriages
during the presenet economic crisis. He
condemns the newly formed society,"
arguing that all present efforts should
be devoted to saving the children of
couples already married. He says that
what Turkey needs today is not more
wedding bells, but more scientific han
ding OF the vast problem of infant NOR
tally.

Uncertain Future for Individual

WINTER PARK, Fla, January g.
Economists and professors painted an
uncertain future for individual mer-
chants in round-table discussions at the
Third Annual Institute on Statesman
ship at Rollins College here Wednesday.
Not only has the individual a small
chance to be himself in years to come,
but the day of the small town is done
as well, DR.. Ray Westerfield of Yale
University said. There is no reason
for all these small towns, one every six
miles or SO, either economically or So
eially," DR.. Westerfield said.
DR.. C. w. Phelps, professor of eco
nomics at the University of Chatta
nooga, took exception to the attitude of
the "intelligentsia" toward chain stores,
saying they were prone to be pro-chain
and to talk only Of the advantages of
the system.
John Temple Graves, I'd. editor of
the Birmingham Age Herald, addressed
the institute last night. THE modern
South" he said, lis the hope of indi-
vidualism.
"Southerners have always been in
dividualists. They still are. Temper
that individualism with a liberalism
which the South has heretofore lacked
but which it is rapidly acquiring and
you have perfect stronghold in which
the philosophy may be maintained and
from which it may successfully sally"
