Called Heavy Blow

~ CNttCU PteSS
KANSAS CITY. Mo, July Is. -
Closing of the Chicago Board of
Trade by the federal government
would prove "a heavy blow to all
other American grain markets"
w. r. Lincoln, president of the
Kansas City Board of Trade, said
today.
The action would also damage
producers. Lincoln said
Closing OF the Chicago Board of
Trade, the central futures market
of The world, would prove a heavy
blow to all other American grain
markets which necessarily are
linked closely commercially With the
central market" he explained.
with the movement of the new
winter crop on hand, the spring
movement just started with a heavy
crop, and the hedging pressure in
cident to such heavy marketing,
the secretary of agriculture might
we'll pause and consider the well
fare of the producer"
Grain interests charged the fed
eral farm board today with vast
ing vast sums of public money in
futile and ill-advised sterilization
and other sociahStic schemes.
The charges were made by Frank
A. Theis. former president Of thu
Kansas City board of trade, before
the house committee headed By
Representative Joseph B. Shannon
which is investigating government
competition with private business
Competing With individuals
He appeared on rehalf of the
grain committee on national affairs
which represents the countrys lead
ing grain markets.
Theis asserted that the govern
ment has been engaged in business
on a gigantic scale in direct com
petition with its citizens and tax
PAYERS through the agricultural
marketing act and the federal farm
board.
He further charged,
That the government is competing
with private individuals and corp
crations in ever branch of the grain
business.
That it is the deliberate pur.
pose Of the federal farm beard anC
its ubsidized supporters to create
with public money an absolute mo-
nopoly in the marketing of grain.
That the taxpayer has been forcec

COLLAPSE AFTER EATING

BUFFALO, N. Y.-About two weeks
ago, a So-called investigating COM
nlittee went to the Erie County flop
house to test out the statement of the
Unemployed Council that the food
was unfit to eat, They declared that
the meal was excellent" and that
the demands of the Unemployed
Council for better meals and sleeping
quarters were unjustfied.
Either the committee lied or was
drunk because a young worker, Is
years old, collapsed there Monday as
result of the rotten food declared
by the committee to be las good as
they got at home"
This is not an isolated case. The
ambulance driver, who is forced to

George Eastman
Commits Suicide
Second Millionaire to
Go In Week

George Eastman, Millionaire cam
era magnate, committed suicide Mon
day. George Eastman is being played
up as the savior of humanity. A mil
lion dollars here and a couple of
million there. A hospital for Roches-
ter. And a dormitory for the Massa-
chusetts Institute of Technology.
Back in Rochester there are
bumped up workers, blinded by the
chemicals used in Eastman's plant.
Grown early because of the tremen-
douS speed-up, which only Henry
Ford has been able to equal. When
they suffer from lack OF food they
are able to think of their great dead
boss philanthropist. And what an
honor.
When the workers who we're caught
by the spy system and fired for
bringing a leaflet into the Kodak
plant are on the breadline, they can
think of the great friend OF human.
ity whom it was their good fortune
TO know.
George Eastman left note which
said: my work is done. Why waltz"
Correct for once.
But, according to the press, Mr..
Eastman finished working at least
forty years ago, when ne became an
eXploiter, And when he had forced
enough profits out of the blood of
his workers-he became a philan-
thropist. He will be remembered-by
the workers who gave their lifeblood
for his millions for his capitalist
| fame.
The news of Eastman's death
forced the stock of the company to
drop 6l2 points. The Eastman Co.,
which is part of Wall Streets war
industry, has succeeded during the
crisis in keeping up a high rate of
profit at the expense of the workers
IL employed. The income last year
was over $20.OOO,OOO.
The death Of Eastman is an ex-
ample OF the decay of the capitalist
system, whose very gods arc unable
to withstand the rottenness Of dem
oraliSing system.

Wang Ching-wei, Premier of the
traitorouS Marking Kuomintang gov
eminent, declared yesterday that the
government will continue its policy
OF non-resiStance land thus CO.
operation to the Japanese aggressions.
A Shanghai dispatch to the New
York Times reports his statement as
follows:
THE government will continue to
refuse to be carried away by popular
clamor, Mr.. Wang announced, and
he deprecated the war mania which.
he said, had caught a section OF the
nation firmly in its clutch, but the
government is continuing to shape
its policies in the light OF sound
principles and the States real in
terestS.'"
Similar demagogy when peddled by
kuonltntang leaders at Ueiping few
days ago aroused the fury OF the
Peiping workers and students to such
a pitch that the Kuonintang leaders
were attacked by the crowd and were
only, rescued by the action of the
police and military. Imperialist OBJ
servers in China have openly ex-
pressed the fear that the Kuomin-
tang is at the end of its rope. They
admit that the masses are turning
with increasing rapidity to the Chin
ese Communist Party. as the only
leader in the national revolutionary
struggle.
Tension between the imperialist
brigands increased yesterday with
the discovery of a Japanese inspired
plot to seize Nantao and other parts
OF the native area of Shanghai and to
declare these districts a part of the
puppet state set up by the Japanese
in Manchuria. The plot was led by
Chinese tools of the Japanese, among
them many leading Marking Kuo-
mintang government officials. The
plot was frustrated by British and
United States police from the Inter-
national Settlement and French po-
lice from the French concession. The
Settlement and French police acted,
1t is said, on secret information from
Chinese sources that the plot was
afoot.

Now the pot is boiling over. The

making things hot. The coal COM
panies' determination to cut wages
and keep profits up no matter how
much depression" has brought mass
revolt in the coal fields. The coal
operator sheriffs and judges have had
to drop the mask and come out as
open enemies of the workers. All Reed
Patterson's demagogy can not weave

his on clear into the strike. tried to
pose as miners friend and break the

suing the Daily Worker for libel be-
ause it unmasked him.
The Communist Issue
The Communist issue was raised
most sharply by the operators and
their press, while they thought there
were not Communists in the coal
fields. They painted a horrible pic
ture of Communism burning church
es, throwing Jesus into the gutter
handing white girls over to the Ne
groes"-and leading minres to fight
their best friends, the operators"
The result was that the miners saw
in the last charge the reason for the
first charge, and lost their fear OF
Communism. Here and there one OF
them joined the Party, and in gen.
eral the rest did not desert the Ma

them to rally the employed miners

Members of the strike committee
reporting for their respective sec

stressed the necessity of sending in
much more relief, especially in the

where terror has held up relief dis
