The daily worker. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1924-1958, 1932-07-30
BY J. STAIN

I spoke earlier of the contra
dictions of world capitalism. But
apart from these contradictions there
exists yet one more. I mean the
contradiction between the capitalist
world and the U. S. S. R. True, it
is not a contradiction of the internal
capitalist type. 1t is a contradiction
between capitalism as whole and
country building Socialism. But
this does not prevent it decompos-
ing and shaking to pieces the very
foundations of capitalism. Still more,
it lays bare to the very roots all the
contradictions of capitalism and
gathers them up into one knot, max
ing of them a question of life and
death for the capitalist order itself.
Therefore every time that capitalist
contradictions begin to grow acute
the bourgeoisie turns its gaze towards
the u. S. S. r.:
Cannot we settle this Or that
contradiction of capitalism, or all
the contradictions taken together,
at the expense of the U. S. S. R.,

Unmasking Imperlalist War

all countries to disunite the workers
and to pit them one against the
other, the more ferocious1y they use
for this lofty purpose a system of
martial law and military censorship
(Which measures even now, in time
of war, are more successful against
the enemy within" than against the
enemy without, the more urgent is
the duty of the class-conscious pro-
letariat to defend its class solidarity,
it's internationalism, its Socialist con-
victions against the orgy of chauyin-
ism of the patriotic" bourgeois eli
ques of all countries. To repudiate
this task would, on the part of the
class conscious workers, mean to re-
nounce all their striving towards

freedom and democracy, not to speak
of Socialism.
With feeling Of deepest chagrin
it must be stated that the Socialist
Parties of the leading European
countries have not fulfilled this duty
of theirs, while the behavior of the
leaders of those parties-particularly
that of the German party borders on
direct betrayal of the cause of So
ciaIsm.
We are reprinting the OPEN
ing paragraphs of the manifesto
written by Lenin in October 1914,
and published in the name Of the
Russian Social Democratic Labor
Party.

THE TWO WORLDS

the land of the Soviets, the citadel
of the revolution, revolutionizing by
its very existence the working class
and the colonies, preventing us ar
ranging for new war, preventing
lis dividing the worl danew, pre-
venting us being masters of our own
extensive internal market, so neces-
sary for capitalists, particularly to-
day, in connection with the eco
nomic crisis?"
Hence the tendency to adventurist
assaults on the U.S.S.R. and to in
tervention, tendency which is bound
to be strengthened in connection with
the developing economic crisis.
(From his report of the 18th Party
Congress held in 1930.)
Our obligations to the world
proletariat. While these are of the
same nature as the first, we regard
them as higher. For the working
class in the U.SS.R. is a part of the
working class of the world. We have
achieved victory not only through the
efforts of the working class of the
U.S.SR., but also through the sup
port of the world proletariat. With
out that support we would have been
torn to shreds long ago. 1t is said
that we are the shock brigade Of the
working class of the world. This is
true. But this imposes on us obi
cations of the utmost gravity.
Why does the international prole-
tariat support us, how have we earned
this support? We have earned it by
the fact that we were the first to fling
ourselves into the battle against capt.
talism, that we were the first to es-
tablish a working class government
that we were the first to set out to
build Socialism. We have merited it
by the fact that we are working for a
cause which If successful will change
the face Of the earth and will set
free the entire working class.
And what is wanted for success?
The elimination of our backwardness
the development of mighty, Bolshe-
vik rate Of construction. Our for
ward pace must be such that upon
beholding us, the working class of the
entire world might exclaim: here it is
our workers government; here it is
our fatherland 1t does the work, our
work-well, then, let us support il
against the capitalists and fan the
flames Of the world revolution. An
we to justify the hopes of the worle
proletariat, are we to fulfil our obi.
cations? We are, we must, or W.
shall bring down eternal disgrace
upon ourselves.

Stain on Feb. 4, 1881, in Moscow
at the First ALI Russian Conference

BLOOM AT WHITE HOUSE

The Springlike weather has resulted
in the blooming Of the several
japanese ounce bushes in the front
and rear grounds of the White House.
Ordinarily these colorful flowers do
not start blooming until late in March,
but the mildness of the weather has
coaxed their flowers so much In advance
that they are attracting considerable
attention. Three of these early blooms
are near the fence along the Penn
sylvania avenue front of the grounds.
Other flowers are starting to show
signs Of early blooming, notably the
forsythia and the crocus in the rear
grounds.

career recently was appointed chief
Of police in Mexico City, according
to reports here. About 80 years

won fame in 1905 by defeating the
ring favorite, Mark O'Topley, after
rs rounds.
When the United States entered
the war he enlisted and saw serv-
ice in France. In 1920 he went to
Mexico as a police sergeant in the
frontier police force. In 1929 he cap
turcd singlehanded a gang OF six

Senator Hayderl :

Continued from Page u
Senator Hayden devoted special
attention to providing work for the
unemployed through road building.
The emergency highway bill which
he reported to the Senate was COM
pletely accepted and to it the 9TH
er relief measures were attached and
ultimately enacted into law Ari-
zona will receive a greater amount
Of Federal funds for road work in
proportion to it's population than
any other state in the Union.
Owing to sharp and heavy de-
cline in the income of the Govern
ment it was necessary to pass a
revenue bill. Many believed that it
would be impossible to amend such
a bill by including tariff on cop
ger, but Senator Hayden had pre-
pared the way by securing, at the
previous session of Congress, an in
vestigation of foreign and domestic
copper production by the United
States Tariff Commission. Copper
was transferred from the free to
the dutiaole list and a foundation
firmly laid for an adequate increase
above the 4 cent duty whenever
Congress shall consider a further
revision of the Tariff.
